[QUOTE="musicLover68, post: 1336678, member: 222121"] [b]iTunes distorted playback/ripping[/b] Hello again folks, Firstly by logical deduction it does not seem to be iTunes itself which is the problem as I have re-installed the existing version then I installed a new version too but the problem persists. CDs play fine in both Finder and Quicktime so I can only say there must be a corrupted OSX software component. May I ask what OSX does everyone have? I have 10.5 with all updates. I am asking in case it is a fault with OSX, with a particular version. Does anyone else have Parallels 6 (or even an older or newer version of Parallels) installed on their Mac? Parallels lets you run other operating systems on top of OSX, e.g. Windows, Linux, Chrome etc. I mention Parallels because this is a major install and so are any 'foreign' OSs installed within it and it requires memory allocation etc. Another possible avenue is the number of songs you have on iTunes. I was just reaching 10,000 tracks when the problem appeared. On the Friday it was fine, on the Saturday it was broken. Okay. Solutions. I have ordered Snow Leopard OSX which I am going to install but you could just as easily re-install whatever version that came with your Mac. I would have reinstalled Leopard but decided to fork out £35 for Snow Leopard anyway, but I wonder if a reinstall of the OSX would replace whatever damaged software component is causing the problem. I will report back on this when my copy of Snow Leopard arrives. Best regards, MusicLover68 :) [/QUOTE]
