Why is my music in itunes skipping?

I imported two audio CDs.  When I play the music from the CD, no skipping.  When I play it from the library or playlist, they all skip.  I just tried downloading one of the songs directly from itunes  and it is skipping, too.

Are you certain it is a "skip" sound and not a popping like static discharge in your speaker system?

  • Why will my music from iTunes not sync to my iPad?

    I tried to drag music from my library to the iPad and the music files are all in grey. I've have reconnected the iPad but they still will not show. I have also restarted my iPad and computer. All songs and playlist from iTunes are there but are all greyed out. All music synced fine to my iPhone and iPod touch. HELP?!

    I forgot to mention that I am using Windows 8. Don't know if that helps?

  • TS1717 does anyone know why the music quits or skips to the next song

    Recent purchases?
    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library and then download again using the Purchased link in the right-hand column of the iTunes Store home page.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history.
    Otherwise check the start and stop times on the Options tab when you Get Info for individual files.

  • ITunes- Why won't half of my music library install? Why is my music corrupted? And where did all my songs in the cloud go?

    Alright there are multiple aspects to this problem.
    Back in February of 2013, I bought the album "Goodbye Lullaby (Deluxe Edition)" by Avril Lavigne. I have 12 albums that I have bought through iTunes throughout the years by her. I had an iPhone 4S and did not update to iOS 7 right away. Later in October I got the new iPhone 5S and already came pre-installed with iOS 7. Somehow, (and I don't know why or how to fix it) a bunch of my songs (again purchased through iTunes) in the cloud are either hidden or erased and I can't seem to download them. When I received my new phone, I downloaded all the songs that were in iCloud. However I noticed that a few were missing. Then a few weeks later I saw that a lot was missing. I had a total 1,497 songs in the cloud, and now it has been reduced to 701 songs. That's about half of the songs that I have spent from $.99-$1.29 on music through itunes since 2004.
    Fast forward to November 5. Avril Lavigne (big fan) released her new album. I pre-ordered it back in Septemeber. Normally the day an album is released I go to the album and pressed the cloud with the down arrow. No problem. However when I went to download this album, all it said was that I purchased it- no cloud with arrow, no nothing. I figured that it was in the cloud so I check under the purchase category in the iTunes App on my iPhone 5S. Again, no luck. Somehow when I logged on to my MacBook it downloaded a copy of the record on the computer. (That's fine. As long as I have the music...)
    Then another problem springed up. I saw that Goodbye Lullaby was no longer on my phone, however it was in my iTunes library. I tried removing all of my music off the phone. Then ANOTHER problem came up. I unchecked the box saying "Sync Music" on my phone, and pressed sync. Then for some reason it automatically checked Sync Music, and all the playlists on my computer. I did this process multiple times. I updated iTunes, I reinstalled it. Restarted the computer- Nothing. So not only half of my songs are gone from iCloud, my music that is on iTunes is NOT syncing into my phone. Plus I can't take the music off my phone without iTunes checking the Sync Music boxes again.
    the 3rd (and last) problem I have is that the music that did install in the sync became corrupted. So when I went to play them, the Music app would skip over them and then delete them instantly. One full album I had just went in a loop and changed songs lightning fast and then when I exited the album, it was delete.
    Please let me know if anyone else has any/all of these problems. I will call Apple to straighten all of this out- and I might have to schedule an appt. at the Genius Bar at the retail store (which is an hour away so if I can get this problem solved here or over the phone that would be great)
    Thanks
    Duncan.

    one last thing: I'm also getting this problem here too:

  • Why doesn't my whole iTunes music library show up on Apple TV?  Only songs I have purchased or downloaded show up

    Why doesn't my whole iTunes music library show up on Apple TV?  Home sharing is on on all devices.

    nevermind, i had automatic graphics switching check off. i removed the check mark and then went into about my mac and voila there was the amd card. Figured i'd post what i found in case anyone else was looking for an answer.

  • Why don't all my iTunes Library songs show up in my music folder

    I have a lot of music in iTunes (16,000 plus songs) and they are stored on a LaCie external hard drive. Just recently I discovered that when I click on the file folder where all the music is stored, only files starting with A through B are listed. I can play anything in iTunes ~ nothing is missing, but the list of music when looking at the file with Windows Explorer is incomplete.
    The reason this is of concern is because I am trying to back-up my music to DVDs (just for safe keeping in case of a hard drive crash). I have tried to do this several different ways, but nothing has worked. I suspect that it has something to do with the fact that maybe the directory of this large folder holding all my music files is incomplete or corrupted. If I run the Windows Back-up program on the folder, it acts as if only the A - B files are there and only creates a back-up of them. I know the rest exists because I can play them from iTunes. We are talking over 55 gigs of files that are not listed.
    I am trying to back-up my library, but I think there is an underlying problem that is causing whatever method I try to fail. Is there anyone out there who can explain what is going on?
    My question is two fold:
    Why doesn't the list of songs in iTunes match the contents of my music folder?
    How can I creat backup DVD's of 60 gigs of music?
    Thanks in advance for the help!

    Is that not a way to relocate the files? In other words, I have 16,000 plus songs in iTunes and they are all playable. They must be on my external hard drive in the file I have named "Art's Music" (verified by the check you suggested in your first reply). Let's assume that I want to put them all on a different external hard drive (my C drive is not big enough). What steps should I use to relocate my entire library? The plan I had in mind was something I found at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301748
    Is this going to work?
    I am going to borrow a friend's unused hard drive for this and then put it back on my hard drve after I reformat it.

  • We have two iTunes accounts on one computer. Why is my music, apps, etc showing in my husbands account? home sharing is not selected

    We have two iTunes accounts on one computer. Why is my music, apps, etc showing in my husbands account? Home sharing is NOT selected. This recently became an issue when we added additional devices. Now we keep getting each other's apps!

    Se descargan aplicaciones para mi iPad 64 3G, las cuales en el momento de sincronizar no pasan a la iPad debido a que solicita una autorizacion para el ordenador la cual se autoriza con ID y el Password, esta orden se procesa y vuelve a solicitar nuevamente la autorizacion y asi sucesivamente.
    He intentado creando nuevas cuentas y desinstalando iTunes y volviendolo a instalar.
    Favor de orientarme en la solucion adecuada para el asunto comentado anteriormente.

  • Why does my music on my ipod touch 5th generation get deleted when I connect it to iTunes on my computer?

    Why does my music keep getting deleted on my ipod touch Everytime I connect it to iTunes on my computer? I've Uninstaller and reinstalled itunes. I've reset my ipod to factory setting and I keep getting this message " The ipod cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-54)" this also happens with my ipod 4th generation too. Everytime I go to put new music on it all my old music gets deleted :-/

    That is because you got a new computer. You can only sync all media from one syncing computer. You can sync from any computer to iPod using the manual method but that does not sync from iPod to computer.

    Reset the PRAM
    Reinstall the operating system from the dvd (you will not loose your data)

  • Has anyone else experienced the stopping and starting again while  playing music in iTunes.  It was fixed but with the last update it has started skipping again.

    Has anyone else experienced the stopping and starting again whil playing music in itunes.  It was working fine wit the prior fix, but after the last update
    it started skipping again. 

    Try it in another vehicle see if it still happens, at least you can narrow it down to your  phone or the car. My 4s play totally fine, I have never had any of those issues. Maybe its time to restore your phone and start over. I would also have someone else play their Iphone in your car, see if it happens to them. Or try yours in someone elses car. Good Luck!

  • Music played in itunes skips

    When I try to play music in Itunes the music skips and then picks up and skips again at about 1/2 second intervals. I think I need to deinstall Itunes and then reinstall but will this delete my library?

    I need an answer, also. Played with the equalizer and now all songs play back with static and distortion. What to do?

  • Why is the music list for my ipod classic grayed out in itunes?

    why is the music list for my ipod classic grayed out in itunes?

    I have a similar problem.  Originally, my iTunes advanced setting was set such that a shortcut to the song was copied into my music library so sometimes copying songs to my iPod resulted in them being grayed out.  I changed that setting some time ago and haven't had the problem until recently.
    I don't know what to do.  here's the situation:
         1.  I have a song that is stored on my file system within My Documents. (it was purchased via Amazon)
         2.  Through iTunes I choose the File | Import file to library (or some text like that)
         3.  I navigate to the location of the song
         4.  I import it.
         5.  I can play the tune from the music library or from an internal PC playlist.
         6.  I then attempt to copy the song to my iPod.  When I do, it appears in the iPod's playlist grayed out.
    I have done those steps countless times for dozens of songs without a problem.  Even others that I've purchased through Amazon.  What is so different this time?  I should mention that this problem NEVER happens if I buy the song through the iTunes store.  Only if I buy it from another source (e.g. Amazon).  WHY ???
