Do you have any sound output at all, in any application?

yes have sound on every thing but on my downloaded music which is non responsive when clicking play
If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes, deselect it.
Not using Air play, if i open iTunes on desktop it won`t play but if i go on line and sign in it plays
If you're playing iTunes Match or Radio content, that's streamed and you do have be signed in to play it.
I do not want to stream as i have already downloaded/bought the music, this worked perfectly before with Maverick
Do you use iTunes Match, and if so, is there a cloud icon in the iTunes window on the same line as the songs you're trying to play? Are there any songs without that icon, and if so, can you play those?
Not using iTunes Match
OK, maybe it's time to mention the obvious. iTunes has its own volume control. It's a slider in the toolbar of the main window. Try sliding it to the right.
First thing i checked when this all kicked off, info. is moving across the bar but timer does not move. have tried stop/start but just sits there refusing to do anything.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iTunes.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Relaunch the application and test. If there's no change, quit again and put the item you moved back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Otherwise, delete the item you moved. If possible, restore it from a backup that predates the problem.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
