Anyone else notice this iTunes problem?
« on: March 19, 2008, 02:48:52 PM »
I'm running 7.5 iTunes under 10.4.11 MAC OS X and invariably when I run a large playlist it will play a song that is one after the one it's pointing to.  I know it starts out okay but at sometime in slips up and then (if I let it go to the end) it seems to correct itself and points to the right track when it's the last track.   dntknw.gif
Maybe this is fixed in the next version; it really doesn't bother me I just thought it was interesting!

That's a pretty old version! I've got a disk img of 6.0.5 if you'd like it. I'm using 7.6.1 without problems. Perhaps "using" is not the best word, I "use" it twice a week to burn a disk. wallbash.gif And usually delete whatever I burned as soon as the disk cools off! smile.gif

Well, I wouldn't upgrade to 7.6.1 just to fix that, if I were you, John. tongue.gif I finally got around to upgrading to Leopard and the latest iTunes along with it and 7.6.1 refused to see my iTunes Library - no matter what I did. This has happened to lots of people at the Apple forums and the only solution is to downgrade to 7.5. Which I did - easily, since I'd just used Migration Assistant to install everything off the old drive onto the new drive, leaving the Tiger install etc. completely intact in case of disaster.

I hope Apple fixes whatever it is that is broken with 7.6.1 (and some had this problem with 7.6 - which I didn't try, on the principal of "if it ain't broke...") in the next version. But I won't be rushing to be on the bleeding edge with that either!
