Not sure if it's the same, but I've also had a few completely disappear after pausing them.

| I haven't updated yet (just got done watching the VP debate). I'm surprised there is no word about the AirTunes issues. I thought that was affecting a lot of people. |

| Working great for me. I think 8.0.1 feels more responsive than 8.0. |

No troubles here. Make sure that you have IPv6 enabled and allow your firewall to except all incoming connections from iTunes. Don't have it blocked. I would also make sure that your firmware is up to date. |

| after a quick hunt around this would appear to be an inherited issue from the last Security Update - iPV6 is enabled to configure automatically and although the firewall is set to accept connections from iTunes, AirTunes works fine as long as I turn my Firewall off. odd. |

Your guess is as good as mine man. I have both of mine set to Link-local only mode. I had a new problem pop up two nights ago. AirTunes is buffering like a mother now. It takes like 15-20 seconds when starting a song or coming back from a pause. This normally takes like 2-3 seconds tops. I'm going to try resetting some things later. Are you having any trouble this way? |

yes, I have noticed a bit of a drag when tracks start and also some drop-out-like activity where it seems to skip forward a couple of mili-seconds in playback.
now, i love my vinyl as much as the next man but there are limits  |
