1st song of transferred CD cut off 4G 20GB

When transferring a CD to I tunes, often the first song is cut off after only a few seconds. This doesn't happen every time but very often and it's frustrating. Does anyone else have this same problem and if so, could you offer any suggestions on how to fix this?

Try changing the bitrate of the song and the format in the options it will change all the songs to that bitrate and format though...

  • I purchased a soundtrack on iTunes (Windows 7) and five of the songs that downloaded get cut off before they finish playing...any idea how to get it fixed?

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • My songs on itunes are cutting off around 30 seconds before the end, how do i stop it from doing this?

    it started off with only some doing it but more and more seem to cut off before the end of the song and its really annoying i dont know why its doing it and i cant figure out how to stop it does anyone have the answer?

    I don't know,  Maybe Office 2008 doesn't play nice with Lion.  Was 2008 working previously with Lion?  Did you have these problems with Snow Leopard?
    Here's MS's instructions for uninstalling Office 2008.
    How to completely remove Office 2008 for Mac
    All I can suggest is uninstalling and starting over with a fresh installation.
    Alternatively don't use Office at all.  Instead use one of the Office substitues that supports Word documents (OpenOffice, LibreOffice, NeoOffice).  Also there's Apple's Pages and MS Office 2011.

  • Song purchased from iTunes cuts off

    Bought an entire album on iTunes for one song and when I go to play it in iTunes it will only play the first 1:45 (it's a 16 minute song!) It obviously didn't download correctly but I'm not sure what to do. It also cuts off on my iPod. The rest of the album seems to play fine but of course the song I want is "album only." Help!

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library and then download again using the Purchased link in the right-hand column of the iTunes Store home page.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history.

  • Song titles are getting cut off for some reason

    I never had this problem before but for some reason the last few songs I have imported and encoded into AAC have the titles cut off after (I guess) a certain amount of characters. This has never been a problem before. Is there a preference that I need to change? I'm running 7.0.1.8 for Windows.
    I have many other songs with longer titles than the latest I have uploaded. This is a strange new occurence.
    Thanks in advance

    No one else having this problem I take it. Can't find any info regarding character length restrictions.

  • Songs purchased from iTunes cut off and do not show as purchased

    I've had iTunes roughly since 2006. All my purchases don't show up in the purchased playlist. Quite a few of the songs (like the entire Sleep Through the Static album) cut off about 2 1/2 minutes into the song. I saw some people had deleted their "corrupt" files and then redownload them from the store but since many of the songs don't even show up as purchased anymore in mine (maybe do to the newer computer) this is not an option
    Is there a way to fix this or am I out of luck?

    Hello Radgeta,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:

    If you do not find your purchases there, don't worry—you can easily associate them with your Purchased playlist.

  • Why do the songs I download get cut off

    why do the songs I download get cut off

    Does the track play correctly in Quicktime Player?  If it does then it is an iTunes issue.  If it doesn't then it is possible the file was not completely downloaded, or is corrupt.

    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17661693 - issue resolved by re-downloading files or rebuilding library file [note, although the poster says this restored all, my understanding is the .xml file does not retain all the details of the original library file].
    What happens if you restart iTunes?
    Look in the Recently Added playlist.  What happens if in the Get Info window you add the lettter (any letter actually) "X" to the end of the artist name, then remove it?
    Right click on a problem file in the Recently Added playlist and then Show In Playlist > Music  Do you see it?
    Delete the files from iTunes but do not let iTunes move them to the trash.  Now go to where they are located in Finder and add them again.  Does that work?
    If you don't see it in Recently Added, make a new playlist window and drag the files from where iTunes put them to an empty playlist.  Do they show?
    Please post a response.  I make various suggstions here at least once a day in response to this issue and I have no idea if they work for people.

  • I have 2 issues: (1) songs are randomly being cut off before they finish and (2) songs are randomly repeating back-to-back.  Help!

    I have a 6th Gen ipod nano that will randomly cut songs off before they are finished.  It also will randomly replay a song before moving on to the next.  Why?? Help!!

    Hello timnpaige,
    Thank you for the details of the two issues you are experiencing with your iPod nano.  For issues like this, I recommend resyncing the music to your iPod.
    If you are syncing automatically, resync content to the iPod by unchecking "Sync Music" and clicking "Apply,"  then checking "Sync Music" and clicking "Apply" again.
    You can find the syncing steps in the following articles:

  • HT201272 It seems my songs downloaded, but they cut off shortly after starting.  I don't want to have to purchase them again, so what do I need to do?

    Recently, I downloaded a few albums and they are showing as downloaded but the song cuts out after about 30 secs.  It just drops off and moves on to the next one, which does the same.  How do I redownload them?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

  • Downloaded songs seem to be cut off - don't get the full song

    Hi
    I have the latest iTunes software, but this has been happening for a while. I am using windows version of iTunes.
    Several of my songs that I have downloaded seem to only play half the time before jumping to the next song. I thought it might have been as I had shuffle on but i turned that off and tried the same song again.
    Any suggestions for this.
    Can I try deleting it and downloading it again without having to pay for it again?
    thanks
    Trish

  • 1st song played on shuffle cuts out in playback

    My 1GB shuffle now has a new quirk to it. At some point, I tried to play a song on it, after a total of about eight hours' use from the very first charging, and the song cut out at random points, resuming at a point well after the cut-out area. I thought it needed recharging, so I recharged it, but now the very first song I play after turning it on also cuts out and resumes at random points, usually after the first minute or so. If I reorder playback by pressing the play/pause button three times fast, the next song and the ones that follow play normally. The problem affects only the very first song after I turn it on. Anybody else experience this?

    Well, I used it today and found that the problem doesn't go away by simple resets. The first song I tried to play cut out within the first minute or so, as expected, and resets (three altogether) had no positive effect on it at all. But before I consider restoring the firmware, I'll try refilling it with fresh material from iTunes and see if that changes anything.
    I also noticed that the status light blinks green continuously during playback, though this would normally indicate that I pressed Play/Pause to pause the shuffle, which I haven't done in my attempts to figure out what is wrong with it otherwise. It shouldn't be blinking at all during normal playback, whcuh leads me to believe there might be a hardware problem that I don't recognize yet. But I'll refill it first and see what happens then.

  • ITunes song preview time is cutting off

    In the past week or so, when I have Itunes open and sampling song, it only plays for 10 seconds. It doesn't finish the entire 30 seconds. Sometimes it only plays for 5 seconds. There is absolutely nothing wrong with my pc. My songs on both my IPhone and my IPad work perfectly. I also calle Apple Support on this and they are STILL playing dumb about this issue. I've seen other complaints on here. Does anyone have any additional Info?

    I am having the same problem.

  • ITunes songs cut off early

    Heyas;
    So I have been going through my iTunes collection - backing up and getting missing artwork, etc. and I have noticed that several songs end early/get cut-off. This happened to one song a while back that was a download from the iTunes store. I figured the file somehow got corrupted so re-bought the song from the iTunes store. Now that it has happened to several songs I am suspicious that there must be another issue than one corrupt file.
    The files that cut off early are AAC format. There may be some older MP3 formatted songs that are effected as well but I have not found any as of yet. The recently effected files are ones I imported from my CD collection; but as mentioned above, I have had issues with iTunes store songs as well.
    I also recently deleted all the songs from my Windows 7 PC and transferred all the files from my Mac Mini (where I keep the 'master' copies), using 'home sharing'.
    Thanks for taking the time to read this post
    Any suggestions?
    I use a Mac Mini 10.4 and a Windows 7 PC. I keep both iTunes libraries synced up.

    I have the same problem.  It's disappointing that there aren't more replies to this issue two years later.  I just delete the song from iTunes and then delete the song file in the iTunes Library.  Then I go back to the store and redownload it.  It asks if you would like to "purchase" the song again.  Say Yes.  You can download the song for free(You won't have to pay again). Then you have to listen to that song to see if it's complete. Sometimes I have to do this several times before I finally get the full song   WHY??? When there are several songs on one album that are incomplete this can be a very tedious process.  I bought an album today and a few of the songs are cut off like this.  So I'm off to try to get my money's worth...
