iTunes 10 not playing music

Hi all!

I just upgraded to iTunes 10 and no music is playing either in my library or in the iTunes store whatsoever. iTunes recognizes the length of the song, and I can move the progress bar, but hitting play results in not playing. The progress bar doesn't move, and the song is not playing. Before you mention it... YES, I'm sure the player is not on "pause" or "stop". 🙂

I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, and tried the "forget all remotes" process that other forums had mentioned, but nothing appears to be working.

Help pls! (I'm running Vista 32-bit)

I too was having this problem of iTunes not playing my music, I would click on the play icon and or double click on the song and it would sit at 0.00 minutes and not move, also when I played a movie or TV show in iTunes it would show the video but with no sound and also if I went into quicktime I would be able to load up a song but again no sound however it would track the time. I found out that I had a clash of audio drivers and to sort you have to goto quicktime, open quicktime preferences and select audio tab and then click the select audio playback and recording devices button.

hope this helps?

I am having the same exact problems. I went into quicktime as one user did, and a window popped up saying there was an issue with a particular audio driver....so i thought maybe there was a conflict or something, but it was the only audio driver available. if i disable it, i have no audio at all. Im not sure if it corrected itself once i went into it; but i reinstalled itunes adfter doing this...and bam, MUSIC!!!! thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
