Why Does... Songs On My iPod Skip?


By Daniel Dwase

Songs on my iPod skip... Why?

Whenever songs on your iPod skip, it is normally due to one of the following reasons...

Large Song File

Large songs files don't play particularly well on your iPod. This leads to skipping.

If possible, reduce file sizes by employing greater compression, or cutting really long files... such as audiobooks... into short files.

A Damaged Song File

If you find that the same song skips every time you play it...and others seem to play without a problem…go back to the source of the song for e.g. an audio CD... rip the song again... and replace the copy on the iPod with the newly ripped version.

iPod That Needs To Be Reset

Reset your iPod by holding down the 'Select' and 'Menu' buttons for 6-10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.

if a 'Reset' won't do the trick, make sure that all the data on your iPod is backed up, and restore your iPod with the latest version of the iPod Updater Software http://www.apple.com/ipod/download -- opens in new window.

Testimonials...
OMG!!!!!! This website helped me so much! I just got my first iPod yesterday and this helped alot.
SallyAnne, USA

You are a genius, I thought I had downloaded iTunes 7... I didn't have to reset, everything came up as was on it when it crashed. I cannot thank you enough for not giving up, this one had sentimental value that you cannot believe and they do not make the black nanos anymore. I tried everything on the internet, and you are the only one that replied and kept at it until you solved the problem.
Thank you.
Buddy Kniffen, Midland, Texas

Wow Daniel! What a fantastic service. I really didn't expect such a prompt response, if at all. And thanks for your advice. I certainly will be downloading from the sites you have listed. We are bathing in summer heat here, whilst I guess you are sheltering from the approaching winter. As a student it is not unusual to work through the night and I must say, how fantastic it is to have music all night. And such excellent quality sound too. So thrilled to have iPod up and running!
Thanks again.
Ciao
