Why is the sound wavy only through itunes?

Whenever I play my songs through itunes on the computer, the sound is really wavy! When I play the songs on my ipods they sound just fine. Cd's also sound just fine when I play them through the computer.

Make sure you are fully inserting the headphones jack. If you have not done so already since this problem occurred, do a Reset on the iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
That will restart the iPod. If that does not help, in case it is a software or settings glitch that is causing this problem, you can do a Restore of the iPod in iTunes. Select the iPod in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES. Over to the right, go to the Summary tab. The Restore button is there. This will erase the iPod, re-install its software, and set it to default settings.
If that does not help either, the cause is probably a hardware problem. If there is an Apple Store nearby, you should make a reservation at the Genius Bar. Otherwise, use the Contact Us link at the botton right corner of this web page to contact Apple tech support, where it says, "Mac, iPhone, iPod and iPad customers within 90 days of ownership are eligible for complimentary phone support..."

Why does the sound disappear halfway through every song???

I went jogging yesterday and about halfway through every song the sound would disappear without the song pauseing. When I skipped a few seconds forwards or backwards in the song the sound came back. Then it played for about 1 minute before the sound disappeared again. I am the only one using the account. I have tried to log out and deleteing the app and downloading it again, but nothing works :( This only happens when I am using my headphones from my Iphone. Spotify on my computer works fine and so does spotify on my phone if I dont use the headphones. My headphones are new and I have tried using others, but it is still the same problem!PLEASE HELP ME

same thing is happening with my iphone,its not the headphones as far as i can tell trying to find out what the problem is but not having much luck

HT1386 Why do the songs I buy through iTunes never finish processing?

This has been very frustrating. If I purchase a song through iTunes on my phone, it never finishes processing. I've tried changing settings, turning it off and on again, and yet I can still see the songs available when I log into iTunes under "music I've purchase but is not on this phone." Any ideas on how I can get the songs to finish processing and available to play?
If I buy a song through iTunes and try to play it in iTunes, it doesn't work. If I buy a song through Amazon, it works fine. I would buy everything through Amazon except it doesn't have all the same songs.
All I want to do is listen to one song that I've paid for and it seems to be nearly impossible. Why is this so difficult?

I'm having this exact problem now with an iPhone 4 (not the 4S) and running software 6.1.3 with iTunes version 11.0.4.4. - The songs play fine in iTunes. In some instances I brought in the songs from CDs, in other instances I purchased from the iTunes store meaning I can't simply convert them. In either way they play silence on my iPhone around halfway through and for the remainder of the track.
I have attempted a full restore from a backup, and then reloaded all of my music, same songs, same problem. I don't feel a manual restore would help because that means reprogramming every single app, and the music would be reloaded the same way so what difference could that make?
Just to add insult to injury my protection plan ran out about 2 weeks ago and my phone otherwise works fine, so this can't possibly be worth purchasing another pricey plan just to be allowed to TALK to Apple.

My itunes loses the sound when playing through TV/receiver

My itunes loses the sound when playing through TV/receiver. It is my 2nd Apple TV, I have a Mac and PC and I have used 2 different receivers. Any help? If I start the music through Apple TV is doesnt skip but then I cant have it playing through computer at the same time. It amazes me how these littles things arent fixed yet.

I have almost the exact same problem, except that mine is without the iTouch. My itunes is working perfectly - uploading music from CD's, searching for music, syncing with my iPod classic. However when i ask it to play any music it will say that it is playing yet not only will no sound come out but the timer bar will not move either. it is the same with music in the itunes store and happens regardless of what else is happening on my laptop.
i know my sound works fine with all other programs, and i read on another forum that 'repairing' itunes through the control panel fixes it, however this is not the case.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I recently updated to the latest version of Itunes (11.1) and when i try to play music or tv shows, the sound lasts only for a second before going completely mute, anyone know how to fix this?

Check this thread out -> iTunes 10.4 & Multimedia Keyboard
It doesn't look like there is a fix yet, but some people in the thread are pointing to this workaround:

- You need to open a text editor (like notepad) as an administrator.
- Open the SetPoint players.ini file (C:\Program Files\Logitech\SetPointP\players.ini)
- Edit the line under the [Players] section to match the line bellow (bold is the wndClass which is to be changed)
iTunes=wac,iTunes.exe,ITWindow,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,0,1,iTunes
- Save the file
- Restart the SetPoint and hopefully play/pause, next and previous buttons should work (at least they work for me)

Why does the sound only work for certain programs?

The sound is only working for certain programs on my iPad. Does anyone know why? Any help is appreciated.

It sounds like you have System Sounds muted. Either the switch on the side, or double tap the home button and swipe to the right, ICON will be on the far left. If the ICON is screen lock related, then it is the switch on the side.

I can't get the sound to come through my headphones

The sound on my computer is working just fine but when I plug my headphones in, the sounds still comes through my computer. I know it isn't the headphones because I have tested them on other devices and they work fine.

Jeff,
Unless I'm misunderstanding something technical, I think we're talking about two different things. Yes, I understand your point about copying DVD's, copy protection, etc. But the main point of this, and other, threads is not about breaking copy protection; it's about successfully converting video to put it on iPod, and retaining the audio. I have a bunch of short, non-copy protected, non-copyrighted video clips on my computer that the Conversion tool in iTunes simply won't convert with audio. That's where the "muxed" thing comes into play, or whatever it is. My clips vary: some are .mpg, some are .avi, whatever. I don't think iTunes successfully converted a single one of them. I ended up downloading some third party software that I learned about in these discussion forums.
That's my point. Whatever it is that these third party programs do, why can't Apple make iTunes do it?
Am I missing something? Are what these programs doing tied into breaking copy protection? Is there some link between "de-muxing" (is that right?) and removing copy protection? I plead ignorance on this one.

Why is the sound of my new ipad cutting out intermittently and what does Apple recommend to solve the problem in lieu of any updates?

Why is the sound of my new ipad cutting out intermittently and what does Apple recommend to solve the problem in lieu of any updates? All of a sudden without changing any settings, the audio on my NEW ipad cuts in and out on applications/ games, keypad noise and lock sounds. The rocker button only seems to work while the sound is intermittently being heard before, after a few seconds of noise not doing anything when sound goes off.
This is highly frustrating as I've noticed others posting about such issues as far back as April. Anybody had the same thing happen to them? Is this likely software (ios6) or hardware issue? What are the solutions Apple???

Apple has no physical stores of their own in Dubai, so unless you mean that you purchased from the online Apple Store for the UAE, you purchased from a dealer, who may or may not have been authorized. You can check the expiration date of the warranty on your iPad yourself by entering in the serial number here:
https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
If it does indeed show the warranty has expired, then what you need to do from here will depend on who you purchased the iPad from and when you really did purchase it. Perhaps you actually purchased it in August and are just misremembering? Check your receipt. If you confirm that you did purchase within the last calendar year, tell us exactly where you got it and we can probably offer advice.
Regards.

Why doesnt the sound play when i mirror my laptop to my apple tv play?

why doesnt the sound play off my speakers when i mirror my laptop to my apple tv?

Answers can only be as helpful as the details provided. And none were given here. It is likely an issue with the device settings, and or a conflict with the type of audio encoding used in the video and the device(s) [tv, stero, amp, etc.] actually playing the audio.

I would love to find a solution after 5 yrs of using this program... U-Jean

This Problem has been occurring before 2011 according to the link below....... *** Apple!!!

Issues are usually network related
What is your internet speed? www.speedtest.net
6mbps is required for instant HD (you can switch to SD in the settings)
If on wifi try ethernet and www.istumbler.net to rule out interference
Make sure you're using your ISP's DNS
