Why is my music crackling and breaking up?

Just uploaded my library from an external hard drive. Seems like it worked fine but when I started playing songs they were crackling and breaking up. My computer and speakers work fine playing music from any other source.

Why has my music disappeared and how can I get it back?

So its been a few weeks since I last used my iPod Touch (3rd gen, 64gb), and this evening I decided to resync it with iTunes as I had added a couple of new albums these last few weeks (Coldplay and an xmas album, not that it matters of course). After syncing, my iPod now only shows these two albums, but not the other 50gb+ that I have on there. They're still showing and playing in iTunes, and everything checks out when the iPod is connected.... it shows I have it filled with the right amount of audio/apps/etc. But no matter how many times I resync, the old music just isn't showing up on my iPod anymore. I've synced plenty of times before without having any problems.
Anyone have any advice? I'd prefer to fix it without wiping if possible, as 55gb of music and apps takes a **** of a long time to restore.

I am not sure if my problem is identical to yours but will post what I have discovered for the missing Greenday music from my daughter's ipod. It has been an aggravation to have to keep putting this music in and after a period of time, it disappears. This is what I have discovered as of yesterday. I hope it helps someone.
How to keep music/picture files in your ipod:
I have noticed that my daughter's music and pictures that have been put in her ipod from our PC files happen to disappear at random times. The photos have disappeared twice and the music 4 times. I think I have finally found a solution to this problem.
When you are in itunes, you will notice that music files have checkmarks beside each song. The downloaded music files (bought from itunes) are the ones that always stay in her ipod. It is the PC transferred music that disappears. This holds true for the photos too. The ones she takes with her ipod don't disappear but the ones we put in her ipod from our PC do.
When in itunes, you will see the checkmarks beside each individual song when under music category. That is the itunes menu and the songs that have checkmarks that are your PC files, do not automatically sync each time that you sync your ipod. The downloaded stuff from itunes automatically does, by default, so I will explain what needs to be done so that your ipod knows this too.
Connect your ipod into your PC. Go into itunes. Click on "ipod" (under "Devices" in left hand column) to whatever you named your ipod. We call my daughter's "marley". So click on "ipod name". On this page you will see your ipod name, capacity version, software version, serial #, etc. If you want your music, the categories are listed at the top of this page, so click on music. You will see, at the top, a checkmark beside "sync music" and boxes underneath with "selected playlist, etc." and other boxes with "include....etc.". Put checkmarks in boxes for which you want. At the bottom right hand corner, you will see a box called "Albums". In this box, anything that you have downloaded from itunes is checkmarked by default but any files that you have put in from your PC will be unchecked. Put checkmarks in these boxes, click "apply", and sync your ipod after doing this. You shouldn't lose these files again.
The same thing applies to photos. Go back to main ipod page mentioned above. Click on photos. There should be a checkmark in "sync photos from my pictures". Also the circle with selected photos should be filled in. Underneath that you will see "Folders". Put checkmarks in the folders that you want. This should help you to not lose photos. I have not had issues with video, etc. as we have not put these type of files into ipod yet. This has only applied to music and photos as of this post.
Hope this makes sence and do hope that it helps someone.

Why watch one Music Video and then Stop (and the next one? no fun)

I would like to know if Aple TV let "Music Videos" play without stop.
I would like to see all my Music Videos without stop,... but with "Aple Tv" i can see only one, and then if i want to see an other one, i have to do it by my self. I thought ok, maybe i have to have a "Playlist" with all my "Music-Videos" and then i could see all of them... but it didn´t work either.
Since i discovered that i cannot do that, i stop buying "Music-Videos"
Can anyone help me pls and tell me how to do it?

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
As Chenks says and you have discovered, continuous play of music (or for that matter any) video, is not currently supported.
You may want to check future updates to see if this feature gets included, but nobody here knows whether this will happen or not. There is the possibility that the lack of this feature is intended and is omitted to protect the unit from being left playing continuous video 24/7, but who knows.

Why is my music stopping and starting, or siri popping up while in the car

I play my music out of the headphone jack to the car stereo, and when charging it will randomly start and stop the music if in music app, or otherwise activate siri.
I have had this problem on and off, through all 3 of my iphone 5 that I have had. This is really distracting while driving to constantly hit play, or dismiss siri. It doesn't seem to do it when not charging, I have had multiple lightning cables, Multiple car chargers, and multiple vehicles, multiple iPhones, to try to figure out why,
Please tell me something else to get it working, as I drive all day and use gps all the time so I can't escape charging it.

Why is my music crackling?

I uploaded a CD to my itunes this morning. I went to listen to the music on my ipod a couple of hours later and it was really crackly, only that one album of music was crackly and everything else was fine. I hadn't checked it after I uploaded it as I was in a rush. However this evening I re-uploaded the CD to my itunes and whilst the CD was still in the disc drive the music played perfectly through itunes, however when I then took the CD out and returned it to it's case, I replayed the album and it was crackly again. I would like to know if there is any way I can fix this.
I have an ipod nano generation 3 and I am currently using version 11.0.1.12 of itunes (i think)
Thanks xxx

Hello laprasass,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with the CD you imported to iTunes. You have taken some really great steps to isolate and troubleshoot the issue already. I found a couple of resources with a few additional steps you can take to address the issue.
First, I recommend reviewing the following article (the article is archived, but the steps are relevant to the issue you are experiencing):
iTunes for Windows: May be unable to import or play music from an audio CD
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2953
If you continue to experience issues with the songs imported from the CD, I recommend continuing with the following article:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Why can't I drag and drop music from a folder on my PC into my iTunes window?

Why can't I drag and drop music from a folder on my PC into my iTunes window?
I have not found any article that has answered this question. They have come up with things like open the side bar and it will work, or you are using wrong format of music. Now this all happened when I upgraded to iTunes 10 and has not worked since and it worked fine before. Music format is correct, I have even gone as far as copying a file already in iTunes and trying to add it again. As soon as the files enters the frame of iTunes the music files icon the pointer is carrying turns into a circle with a slash through it.
ITunes Ver. is 11.1.5.5 Windows Ver. is Windows 8.1 Pro with Media Center
Files I have tried adding are standard MP3, 256 kbps purchased AAC Audio file, MP3 converted by iTunes into a 256 or 320 kbps AAC Audio file. None can be draged and droped but all can added by going to File/Add File to Library... or File/Add Folder to Library...
Add items from your computer to your iTunes library
Do either of the following:
1. Drag a file or folder from the desktop to the iTunes window.If you add a folder, all the files it contains are added to your library.
2. In iTunes, choose File > Add to Library, locate a file or folder, and click Open.
I can add files and folders by doing number 2 above but can not doing number 1
I have gone as far as uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling per apple procedures below.
Steps
1. Remove iTunes and its related components from the Control Panel
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and restart your computer:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended effects.

I had this problem on Windows 8.1.1 and iTunes 11.2.2.3
To resolve it from within Itunes I did : Edit, Preferences, Sharing.
I took the tick out of "Share my library on my local network"
Click OK.
Closed iTunes/
Reopened iTunes and I can drag and drop.
I went back into Edit, Preferences, Sharing and put the tick back and clicked OK.
Works fine now.

How come although iPads are getting more powerful, the iOS apps from apple are so mediocre and just not that great? We spend all this money for the latest ipad and all we get is these $5 video and music apps from apple. Why create the iOS platform and only offer so so apps like IMovie and GarageBand ? While other developers are offering much better apps like pinnacle studio for video, Cubasis and Auria for music production, apple has not showed much growth in terms of innovation. While there's nothing wrong with making an app like GarageBand where "anyone " can make a song, how about something for real musicians or an app not so basic as it get for video editing? After spending 0ver $700 on an ipad I'd be willing to spend more than $5 for a better video or audio app.

First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Why is it a shared folder in the music app and why do i need internet to listen to it?

why is it a shared folder in the music app and why do i need internet to listen to it?

Try in order:
- Resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod since you may have corruption that is now in your backup
Based on the info you provided it appears you did the restore from backup and sitll have problems. Thus, I would just restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.

Why does iTunes move my music files and create new albums?

I'm running iTunes 11.4 on my iMac running Mavericks 10.9.4. My iTunes library is stored on a WD MyBookLive NAS.
I've not had any problems with this set up until today. When I double clicked on a song it moved it completely into another album, gave the file the wrong name but still played the right music, it had also changed the file information to match the wrong folder. When I re-added it to iTunes it put it back into the wrong album!
I have also seen it move songs as I double click them to play from one album to a new album of the same name but the artist name goes from 'Soupdragons' to 'The Soupdragons' Both these folders then exist on my NAS. This is crazy, what is happening? Fortunately these errors have happened to old music that I have the CD's for so I can easily rectify it, but any help as to why it's happening would be great.
Thanks Tim

Go to iTunes > Preferences > Store and turn off
Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases
Share details about your library with Apple
On any iOS device go to Settings > Music and turn off
Show All Music
Close and reopen iTunes and/or reset the device and you should see your version of the metadata for each track rather than the original store data.

Why can't I copy and paste the music from my iPhone on iTunes 11 to a folder in my Music Library?

Why can't I copy and paste the music from my iPhone on iTunes 11 to a folder in my Music Library? I want to have a copy of the music on iTunes so when I update to a newer version of iOS I don't lose my music. And no I didn't buy this music off iTunes and neither will I use iTunes Match.

There has never been a function to copy anything from an iPhone and paste it to a computer.
All of your media should be in iTunes already.
If it is not and was purchased from iTunes, right click on the device and select Transfer Purchases.
If the media is not in iTunes and was not purchased from iTunes, how did you get it on the device in the first place?

HT5085 I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list. I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

Have you deleted anything from your iTunes library ? Have you checked to see if they are still on your computer, but not listed in your iTunes library ?
If not then do they show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading ? If they don't show there and others do and they are still in your country's store, then check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
If they are no longer in your store for redownloading (or you aren't in a country where music videos can be redownloaded) then you will need to copy them back from your backup of your library/downloads.

Why does my music have a red circle with a square dot beside it and how do i remove it

why does my music have a red circle with a square dot beside it

Here's what I had to do, no thanks to the others on here who go at it like Apple, delete and restore.
No, you don't have to delete and restore. Just open a folder on your computer, call it something like iPad music, keep it open, open iTunes, select all your music, copy and paste it in the folder you just created, delete all your music from iTunes (relax, you just copied it into that folder). Select all the music in that folder, drop it back onto your playlist. Now, I renamed my playlist, because it was called untitled, originally, so if that doesn't work, rename, or delete and recreate your playlist, copy the music back over, sync, and they will play.
Worked for me, anyhow. Good luck!
