Hello,
I did a little internet searching and found that is a mixed bag of issues that can cause this. I snagged a link that is another forum from Apple where I found several potential fixes that might work. It seemed there was no one fix that worked for all of the people having this problem and has been an issue for a while. That link was https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1933163?start=45&tstart=0
I hope this helped.

Hello everyone,
I'm having a problem with iTunes where every time I open iTunes it says "Determining Gapless Playback Information" and it's been happening since OS X Mavericks. Now I'm on OS X Yosemite and it's still happening. Does anyone know how to fix it?
Thanks,
