Why is the iTunes radio skipping songs repeatedly and it won't stop?

OK when I was listening to Itunes Radio I was in the top 50 pop chart and I skipped through a couple songs and it went crazy. It began to repeatedly skip song after song with out using your 6 skips. Also I left that chart and went to the alternative chart and it did the same thing without doing anything. The only way I got it to stop for a couple minutes was bye turning off wifi and turn it back on using the IPhone 6 Plus.

Try this.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
If that does not work, sign out of your account, restart your iPad and then sign in again. Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap your ID and sign out.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store and sign in again.

ITunes match and iTunes radio skips songs on wifi

iTunes match and iTunes radio have been skipping songs while on wifi. We have a Linksys EA6350 setup in WPA2 personal for both the 2.5 ghz and 5 ghz networks. Both are setup as mixed 802.11n/ac with both on a channel width of AUTO. We are using two Apple TV's, iPhone 5s and a iPad 2. One of the apple TV's is setup as a different iTunes account than the others. It skips songs on all devices and accounts, however when I turn the wifi off on my iPhone both iTunes match and iTunes radio work flawlessly. What should I do?

+1 same issue here.
Not sure exactly when it started, but seems like it was sometime on or after 3/7.
It appears to affect every device I have on the home network (iMac, MacBook Pro, Macbook Air, iPhone, iPad). Most devices are wifi, but I can confirm the issue also occurs on my iMac which is connected via ethernet. I'm able to get both iTunes match streaming and iTunes Radio streaming to the iPhone and iPad if I disable wifi and use LTE.
On my iOS devices, it just looks like it's skipping songs repeatedly...every now and then it might play one song, but it skips 30-50 before that happens. A few times it just kept skipping until the device rebooted itself. On my OS X devices, I don't get any of the skipping, it just looks like it's trying to load the radio station (i get the blue progress bar at 100% but nothing ever happens).
For what it's worth, I'm using an Apple Time Capsule for as my DHCP for ethernet and wifi. My internet provider is Cox Communications.

Why is the iTunes Radio advertisement showing? I'm using the iTunes Match though.

I joined the itunes match last April. It will be expired on next April.
Until now, the itunes radio ads haven't been showed up while using the itunes match.
But Since last week, I listen the ads on the radio like Nissan and so on.
How do I remove the ads on the radio?

I'm also using ver. 11.0.1 and have Radio, so it's not a version bug.
Have you deleted the iTunes pref files? Close iTunes and go to your user Library->Preferences. Unless you've changed your OS to do this, the Library folder is invisible in the newer versions of OS X. Open a Finder window, and while holding down the Option key, click on Go in the top menu bar. You'll see your Library there, so click on it and go to the Preferences folder. If you're viewing preferences alphabetically, scroll down to com.apple.iTunes. Delete anything that has those words in the file name (there will probably be about 6 of them). No worry; this won't hurt anything. When you re-open iTunes, new pref files will be created.
Now, since you just entered this topic and weren't a part of the original discussion, I was assuming that your reply was to say that you weren't seeing any Radio option in iTunes. That's what I'm trying to assist with here.
Re-open iTunes and see if anything is improved. If not, can you post a screen shot of your iTunes window?

Why does the iTunes radio stop playing?

Sometimes when listening to the iTunes radio on my desktop the station will stop playing. The speakers are on and I've done nothing.
Without a paid subscription Pandora will periodically check with the listener.
Is the iTunes radio set up the same way?

The thing is, the music does not cease prior to the slideshow start. Or At least it doesn't cease on my ATV.
I do have Flickr set as screensaver indeed, but having to change screensaver settings to watch a new slideshow is just plain annoying IMO.
Ane the fact that the music plays when a screensaver slideshow is active is a proof that technically the ATV could support the feature.
Thank you for your reply.

I can no longer edit the info for my songs, movies and tv shows. This occurred since I loaded Windows 7 Pro on my C drive, and then fownloaded ITunes 10. Why will the program not allow me to access the track info to edit it?

Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
Anyways I digress.
So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
Answers in a postcard :-)
Much love

So my iTunes Radio is not working and whenever I press or choose a station, it goes into the song it was going to play and goes back out to the stations menu. I have great wifi, great cellular option or whatever it it, So how do I get it to work again?

Hi Jbierrie,
There is an issue with Photoshop specifically related to recent updates in which causes the licensing to revert to trial after a certain number of launches (typically 2-3).
The current workarounds are to either:
- Sign in with your Adobe ID again every few launches
- Uninstall Photoshop CS6 and then reinstall it but don't install any of the updates
The issue with the updates is planned to be fixed in the coming weeks. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Why doesn't the iTunes Radio option show up in the iPhone?

With the iOS7 upgrade the iTunes Radio doesn't show up in my iPhone, can play iTunes Radio in my Iphone.

Won't be availble if you are in another region beside US

Itunes radio skips like crazy.

My iTunes radio will play a song then begin to skip like crazy. Quitting music and relaunching it allows one song to play then the issue occurs again. I can see songs as they go by but it is like somoene is holding down the forward skip button. This is only occurring on my 5s and was not an issue on my 4s prior to upgrading. This occurs still after the 7.0.1 patch.

How does one get a radio station listed in the iTunes Radio Tuner?

Hi!
I am CIO for Head On Radio Network, http://www.headonradionetwork.com
We have a live 24/7 Liberal/Progressive political talk radio stream which may be found at http://server2.whiterosesociety.org:8000/HeadOnRadioHQ and we would very much like to have this listed in the iTunes Radio Tuner.
We produce 60 hours of original programming every week, and also have permission to do a "The Best Of The Mike Malloy Show" in the wake of his firing by Air America, and that is appearing at 10pm ET every weeknight. When we are not live, we replay recent shows from the live stream.
I think that having HORN on the iTunes player would be an asset to Apple.
Who do I contact? Is there some sort of application form?
Thank you all so much!

Sorry, but there's no mechanism for getting a station added to the iTunes Tuner list. No one outside of Apple knows who's running the server that maintains the list since 3Com shut down Kerbango, the previous host of the list, and for some unknown reason Apple has not provided any way of contacting the current provider or administrator for making changes or additions.
I can only guess why this is the case; perhaps Apple doesn't want to bog iTunes down with potentially a huge list of stations (there are after all hundreds if not thousands of iTunes-compatible streams available) and so only provides a sampling.
You might want to consider listing your station through Live 365 or ShoutCast or another such streaming service. That would get it to the attention of a lot of people.

I have already downloaded the ios 7 but cannot access the iTunes Radio from the music app. There is no iTunes Radio icon at all! How did that happen? How can I resolve the problem? Please help. Thanks!

It didn't show up in my music app for several hours. Don't know why... But it's there.
I can now access and add stations through the iTunes Store to play through music app icon.
