Why do I have intermittent playing of iTunes??

Often I have intermittent playing of iTunes. I am running XP and this is NOT an Airplay issue. This occurs with the desktop. If I reboot the problem is resolved. Then after a while I will come back to iTunes and it will then be intermittent.

  • Why do I have intermitant playing in iTunes?

    I have iTunes 11.0.2.26 and I get intermittnat playing. What is the solution here? Can anyone help?

    Klaus:
    The lack of videos in the iTMS has nothing to do with Apple not wanting to sell you videos and everything to do with the Canadian distribution and copyright holders not giving Apple the right to sell those videos.
    Despite what you might hear about "worldwide distribution rights" - every country has its own laws and controlling interests, and although many Americans may see Canada as the 51st state (and apparently some Canadian do too), Apple still needs to negotiate with each country's local interests (the equivalent of the RIAA and the MPAA). If those guys don't want to play ball, then you don't get any video.
    In fact, and I hate to say it, but Apple has indicated that it does intend to lauch a video store outside of the US any time soon (if ever). But then, in October 2004, Steve Jobs got on stage and said that Apple wasn't interested in producing an iPod that plays video since there was no content for it. Less than a year later, he intro'd the iPod with Video.

  • Why won't my songs play on itunes?

    I have windows xp and recenlty I had all my items removed, my hard drive wiped, and then all my items were re-added to my laptop.  My volume works just fine with everything except iTunes....when I hit play on a song, the song cues up, but it doesn't play, and the little curser that moves as the song progesses just sits there at the 0:00 mark.  Do I need to update a driver?  Thanks so much!!!

    Hello,
    I have the latest Itunes and a IPOD CLASSIC updated.
    Some songs i can play in itunes (MP3 CDRip 320 KBS) won't play in the ipod.
    I don't know how to fix this problem.
    I restored the ipod from the itunes and sync again, but the problem persist.
    The sogs are Skipped when i try to play.
    I find a fix for this problem: sync the music with mediamonkey.
    ALL songs can be played in the ipod after sync with mediamonkey.
    Is very strange this problem, maybe itunes generate this problem, because after aync with itunes many songs are skiped and won't play, but with mediamonkey sync the problem is solved.

  • HT4915 Why do I have to pay for iTunes Match subscription to delete songs I've previously purchased from iCloud?

    From the support article, it seems that I have to pay for an iTunes Match subscription in order to permanently delete songs from iCloud.  Is there a way to delete songs from iCloud without having iTunes Match?

    You don't have to sign up to iTunes Match to play your iTunes music purchases through the iPad's Music app (if you've synced or downloaded them to the app).  iTunes Match allows you to store your own music collection (e.g. copied from CDs, bought from other sites) in the cloud as well as the music that you've purchased from iTunes
    From http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/ :
    With iTunes in the Cloud, the music you buy from the iTunes Store automatically appears on all your devices.1 And for music you haven’t purchased from iTunes, iTunes Match is the perfect solution. iTunes Match is built right into iTunes on your computer and the Music app on your iOS devices.2 It lets you store your entire collection in iCloud, even music you’ve imported from CDs or purchased somewhere other than iTunes. When it’s in iCloud, it’s available on all your devices. So you can enjoy all your music anywhere, anytime — on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, PC, or Apple TV.

  • Why do i have to keep reinstalling Itunes for my Iphone 3gs and Ipad 1 to be detected

    I have to keep reinstalling Itunes for it to recognize my I products,every few days i go to connect my iphone 3gs or my ipad 1 to my pc which is running windows 7 64 bit and they are not detected, so i uninstall itunes,the reinstall itunes and then my I products are then detected... i can then do things.
    But a few days later  the same thing happens,i have had to do this about 8 times so far.. why is this happening and how can i get in tunes to detect my iphone and ipad  without reinstalling itunes..thanks

    Please ignore this post, being that I just discovered the fix action for this problem, which involved installing the software download" iPhone SDK update. Thank God!

  • Why do i have to log into iTunes match repeatedly?

    I have about four devices synced with iTunes match. Almost every time I log into my computer I have to sign out, sign in, enable iTunes match again. Over and over and over and over again...
    I love iTunes match but I dont understand why I have to enable it so much if it's already been enabled multiple times. The only device I dont have to sign in a lot on is my iPhone, but I use that almost every day with match, but any computer I might use 2 or 3 times a week. It seems to have to do with the duration of time since I last used match. Either way it is quite annoying...

    I'm on Windows 7 and using Itunes 10 (not planning on upgrading to 11 due to others complaints of more issues with 11)
    I've had imatch for about 4-5 days and what I noticed is the 'greyed out/kicked out of imatch' issue only started when i tried to sync my ipod through itunes.   Since I did that, i seem to be getting the whole library greyed out, and the fix is to log out and log in again, start match again, and it goes through it's whole process just like when you first start with imatch.  It's time consuming.   But I wonder if the sync is what created the problem.  It didnt seem to happen before I did that and I read in other forums that syncing and imatch don't work too well together.
    The other thing is I think it could be that once you've played songs from the cloud on your other cloud device, in my case iphone, then go back to the computer, this could also cause the kicked out effect.  I don't see why this should be how it acts, if all devices are using the same cloud, they should all run together seamlessly... but it doesn't seem to be the case.
    The good thing is it always goes back to find the whole library even though I deleted some files from my HD (in process of upgrading all to 256 bitrate) so I am scrambling to get back the last few hundred files on my system.... because I just do not trust this whole cloud thing.  
    Everybody needs to back up EVERYTHING.. ALL the time.
    Imatch is a great concept if they could work out the bugs.

  • Why do I have to Force Quit iTunes so often?

    On my old G3 iBook I remember I had to Force Quit iTunes (can't remember which ancient version that was) sometimes when it 'froze' after I clicked a new track title on a CD that was in the Drive.
    In iTunes 6, this never ever ever ever ever ever happened. Never. Not once. Ever. I silently congratulated Apple on eliminating that annoying particular little glitch.
    Now I've recently downloaded iTunes 7 - it's happening again !! Several times when I click to play a different track on a CD in the drive, I get "iTunes (not responding)" and I have to Force Quit. This is REALLY REALLY annoying. Why has this old fault returned?
    (btw I just saw the thread below mine, about iTunes needing Force Quit after playing 2 tracks on a CD? This is NOT the same fault. iTunes will happily PLAY a whole CD without complaining - the problem occurs after I double-click to play a different track while another one is still playing.)

    FWIW, I have had a similar problem, where iTunes froze on random songs at two seconds into the song. I would have to force quit, then restart. This occurred when I put in a CD to play from the beginning, while I did other things. I have not witnessed your circumstances when clicking a new track to play. I do not do this often, except after I restarted iTunes to continue the CD.
    I just deleted the com.apple.itunes.plist file in ~/Library/Preferences and so far, so good.

  • Why do I have duplicates in my iTunes library when I have only a single file for each song on my PC?

    I have duplicates for about half of the songs in my iTunes library. I've recently upgraded to a new PC so I'm assuming that it occurred at that point.
    However, when I go in to my iTunes media files I only once copy of each album or song filed. Also if I search my PC I'm only finding one copy of each of these duplicated songs.
    Duplicated songs appear to play equally well and there are no exclamation marks next to them either. I tried updating and that didn't work. If I uninstall and reinstall will it delete my iTunes media files? Will I need to back these up first?
    Any advice on how to get iTunes to stop displaying the duplicates would be really appreciated.

  • Why doesn't my movies play in itunes

    I have attempted to play my movies on my Acer Aspire R7 but they cannot be loacted. I backed up my old computer's ITunes Library to an external hard drive and followed the instructions for importing on the ITunes site. Downloads from the ITunes Store take too long and they often time out. Any suggestions on how to get ITunes to recognize the location of the files?

  • Why won't my videos play in iTunes when I already downloaded them?

    I downloaded an episode to watch along with a few songs....they downloaded on my iPad and now they are showing up in my purchased but its only playing 30 seconds of the episode and the songs won't play at all. Can anyone help?

    iTunes on the iPad is just the iTunes store. Videos and tv shows that you've synced and/or downloaded to the iPad go into the Videos app :

  • Why won't old CDs play in iTunes 11.4?

    Some of my cds from the late 90s/early 2000s won't play properly in my iMac with iTunes (11.4). My iMac is about 4 years old. This just started happening recently when I upgraded to OS Mavericks. The cds will play fine then either halfway through or near the end, it will stop, start up again, then the cd starts spinning as if it's reading the cd, then it becomes a bit difficult to eject the cd. My cds are excellent, no scratches at all. They perfect in my Xbox360 and PS3.
    Does anyone know why this is, & how to fix the issue? Am I just better off getting an external hard drive?

  • Why do I have Intermittent Wifi Connection Loss during music streaming ?

    Hello,
    I have an ipad3 and an iPhone 4S and I am getting with both devices interruption of the sound when I send music to the Apple TV. It generally happens after a few minutes. The signal for the wifi is still good and I have still access to the Internet  I have tried all the recommendations of the article "iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections" but this did not help. I have used several applications for sending music to the Apple TV (music application from Apple and DSAudio from Synology) but I'm getting the same issue. I have also the same issue with the media center application from Bouygues Telecom connecting directly to my internet router. My router is a bbox sensation. I had also the same kind of issue with my old router when sensing photo albums to the internet: I had the error message "your system is running low on ressources". How can I solve these intermittent wifi connection losses ?

    Try #5.
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Why do I have to sign into iTunes (on my Mac) three consecutive times every time I open the app?

    Every time I launch iTunes on my Mac, it wants me to sign into my iTunes account. I get three consecutive dialogs asking for my password. The first two seem to be for "automatic downloads" and the third is "to use iTunes Radio". What can I do so that I don't have to sign in every time?

    Lion may have replaced files that partially made up your printer drivers. Either way, HP saw fit to make a new set of drivers specifically for 10.7 so you may want to use it simply to avoid any bugs tehy found.
