Good guess, but there is no hard drive, the iPhone uses flash memory.

Check Settings > iPod > Shake to Shuffle.

Is it turned on??????

Also, are you listening to music through the speakers, headphones, or bluetooth headset?

I have found when listening via bluetooth headset that audio will "skip" or "pause" anytime the connection between the headset and device is lost for a split second.  Also, having the device set to mute will cause all audio to pause anytime a text, email, or push notification activates

Thanks for your reply, but, there's always a but isn't there :-)

Shuffle is turned off.

The songs/audiobooks/movies skip when played through the internal speakers, bluetooth headest, wired headset, everything really.

If I remove the songs and then replace them in a different order, different songs skip.

Definitely a HDD problem, but the nice thing about apple is that I go to a store tomorrow and they replace the phone - excellent :-)

Having the same issue.  One other thing worth nothing - a song that is skipped one time will play another if I choose another to begin with...also VERY annoying.

I had a problem with my songs going silent in places and then skipping, and if I took the songs off and put them on again different songs were messed up.  In my case I found out that it was zone alarm messing up the synching, I uninstalled it then resynched all my music and found it was fine again.  Thought I would reply just on the off chance your problem was caused by the same thing.
