After latest update iTunes cuts off all songs after about 3 secs.

Just updated iTunes to version 11.1.3.8.  Now when I attempt to play my music from the Cloud each song begins and then cuts out after about 3-5 secs.
Same thing happens when I attempt to listen to previews in the iTunes store.
Sure hope this isn't related to the problem discussed in an 18 month old thread I found here.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • ITunes cuts off every song at 2:54 when trying to burn a CD

    I'm using iTunes 10.5.3.3 and Windows 7 (64-bit). When I try to burn a playlist to a CD, it cuts every song off at 2:54 minutes. I have tried three different albums now and it does it every time.
    Any assistance would be appreciated. I already updated to the latest firmware for the DVD drive.
    Also the albums were purchased from the iTunes store, so I cannot try a different program to rip them.

    Failed while scanning for CD / DVD drives, error 2380.
    Error while opening iTunes CD driver. This could be caused by a corrupted iTunes file or a conflict with other older CD burning applications, either currently installed or previously installed and uninstalled incorrectly.
    With that one, I'd start with solution 3 from the following document:

  • Update itune 6, now all songs skip

    Hello,
    After downloading and installing itunes 6, all my songs skip and sounds like they are scratched (and weren't before).How can i fix this???

    hi y'all!
    actually, the MacMuse advice in that particular tip is directed towards versions of itunes that use Quicktime 6.5.2 for their audio playback. for the QT 7 version of the waveout quick-fix (for itunes 5.0.x and 6.0), see this document:

  • Why won't Apple fix this problem of iTunes Cutting off songs?

    I've owned seven different ipods and three iPhones. On EVERY ONE OF THEM iTunes cuts off many songs after two or three seconds of playing. We're talking here about songs either uploaded from commercially purchased DVDs or the iTunes store. I have no bootleg music, I don't customize anything related to iTunes. I just buy music and download it into iTunes from MacBook Pro laptops that are similarly as standard as one can get. Yet when I listen to the albums of songs I've just purchased, random songs play for two seconds and then change to another song. When I've researched this issue across the Web I've found detailed complaints going back as early as 2004 and I can't believe that EVERY Apple iTunes system and device I've purchased over many years has behaved in this exact manner. What are these "Apple Support Communities" FOR is Apple fails to either correct the problems they report or, worse, even acknowledge problems that are documented by thousands of users of a wide variety of iTunes related products? I don't want to have to use a work-around or a reload or some of the other Rube Goldberg-like solutions others have suggested in these and other forums. I'm spending thousands of dollars on Apple equipment and software and I simply want the Apple iTunes devices and music that I buy to WORK AS ADVERTISED, which they don't. I just want my music to play as it is supposed to play. Why can't Apple make that happen?

    That's happing to me, any solution ?

  • When i updated itunes I lost all my music, I was able to retrieve it from my previous version, but now a artists have all of their songs list under one unknown cd.  How can I seperate these cds with the correct songs included?

    When I updated itunes I lost all of my music, I was able to retrieve it from a previous itunes library, but now some artists have all of their songs listed under one "unknown album."  Is there a way to separate these songs back into the correct albums?  Also, is there a way to make songs that have a featured guest just show up with the rest of the album instead of making a whole new spot for it?  Thanks!

    " When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
    Correct.
    " How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer?  "
    Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.

  • When I update iTunes, it "loses" all my songs stored in a non-default location.  How to prevent?

    I store my music library on an external hard drive.  Whenever I update iTunes, it "loses" all my songs.  When the iTunes library updates, all my tracks get little exclamation points next to them because they are not in the default (C:\my music\itunes music) location.  I have my ways of fixing this...but they are a pain.  Is there a way to have my music files not get lost when I update iTunes?
    Thanks,
    Brett

    Hi dklowther,
    iCloud only houses access to Music purchased through iTunes. Any music you put on your iPhone from CDs or other sources would only be on your phone and in your iTunes library that you used to sync the songs to your iPhone. You need to move the contents of your iTunes library from your old computer to your new one....
    Cheers,

  • I have the iPhone 5 and have with 6.0.1 software version.  Although I had them when I moved from iPhone 4 to the 5, the latest update has most of my songs on the phone listed in grey (over 95% of them) and I can't play them.  They are still listed though.

    I have the iPhone 5 and have with 6.0.1 software version.  Although I had them when I moved from iPhone 4 to the 5 (could play them), the latest update has most of my songs on the phone listed in grey (over 95% of them) and I can't play them.  They are still listed in the iTunes library.  When I look in the Summary for the iPhone, it shows Audio as only .16 GB - I have over 5 GB of songs, so what gives?
    P.S. When I look at my Playlists most of the songs are greyed out.  However, at the bottom of the list there is a cloud icon with a downward facing arrow.  When I click on it each song starts to "load" and after a few minutes I have the songs back on in the list.  I have to do this to all my playlists (I had over 100) in order to get access to all my songs.  Then I did a sync and it happened again!
    I use iCloud for documents and some other things (calendar, contact, etc.) but am not aware that I have anything music-wise in the cloud.  Any thougnts?

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • My iphone 4s ios 7.0.2 had songs.I had put the songs through itunes. Now when i wanted to put more songs in my iphone through itunes, i pressed sync all songs and then itunes said that all songs are in my iphone now. But in my iphone it shows no songs.why

    I have an iphone 4s ios 7.0.2. Before updating to the latest ios i had songs in my iphone. after updating also it was there, but when i wanted to put more songs through itunes in my iphone , i synced with itunes first with my iphone. Then i pressed sync all songs and then itunes said that all songs had been synced. But in my iphone it showed me that there is no songs at all and i have to download it from itunes store. The songs which i had also went from my iphone. I dont know what happened. I updated my itunes to the latest one 11.1.1. But still no change . Can anyone tell me what is the problem. What to do?

    Hello babichanjacob
    Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.

  • ITunes cutting off length of podcast episodes

    Help! I am having an issue where two of my iTunes podcast episodes are being cut off and ending prematurely - about half way through. I've spent half the day trying to trouble shoot this without any luck.
    I am editing the files correctly in Garageband, uploading them correctly, etc. They appear fine on my website and when I download them.
    The two episodes in questions are here: http://www.openworldmag.com/22-created-muse-business-backpacking-europe-fred-per rotta-tortuga-backpacks/  (length - 55:58)
    And here: http://www.openworldmag.com/21-digital-nomad-ben-finnigan/ (length - 1:04:41)
    On my site, they are fine, but when you go to my iTunes page (itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-openworld-podcast/id896941830) and try to view them in iTunes the length of episode 21 is only 24 mins and episode 22 is 37 mins.
    I am hosting the podcasts on my WordPress website and using the Blubrry plugin. Can anyone give me a hint as to what is wrong? I have tried a bunch of things, I've reuploaded new files, changed meta information, and nothing is working.
    Thank you for your help! 

    Well finaly broke down and gave rebuilding from the XML file a try. That's solving a problem with a sledghamer.
    So yes my songs now end up in the right length, but:
    It duplicated a huge part of my exsisting library, and maybe moved parts of it or maybe deleted files*. No idea which. Original itunes library was 620+ gigs and now I have two itunes librarys each 430+- gigs. Look forward to figuring that out!
    It turned a massive number of my Podcasts into songs. So that will be fun to disentangle.
    iPod and iPhone preferences don't copy, so I have to rebuild all my phone sync settings.
    So basically, a really crappy fix unless you have a small library and don't use podcasts.
    Better solution needed Apple!!!!!
    *I was one of the lucky bastards who had iTunes delete hundreds of gigs of podcasts on r11. So I have no faith in it not doing it again.

  • ITunes not adding all songs in an album?

    Hi all,
    i've noticed i've added a new album of music to my itunes, however when I sync this to my iPhone 5 not all the songs are transferred over? This has happened more than once.
    I have my music syncing set to push over all the songs, however it pushes over only a few (the current one had 18 songs and I got 6 synced over complete with the album art).
    Any ideas?

    I have experienced the same thing for months now and was in false belief that there was something wrong with my songs. iTunes should go through all songs and play them randomly. There is absolutely no excuse for this not to work properly. Repeat option is completely separated. It's purpose is to play songs indefinitely. It shouldn't be necessary to turn repeat on for iTunes to play all songs while shuffle is on.
    I will just never be able to comprehend how is it possible for people who make this software for years not to see this problem while they test the application (if they do that at all) and fix it. This is just ridiculous and pure nonsense.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.  
    These steps are to be taken while booted in safe mode.
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
    for k in /Sy*/L*/Ex*/{,.?}*.kext; do test -f "$k/Contents/Info.plist" && /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print :CFBundleIdentifier" "$_" | egrep -qv "apple|Accusys|ArcMSR|ATTO|CalDigit|HighPoint|hp-fax|JMicron|print|SoftRAID|stex" && echo $k; done | open -f -a TextEdit
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Post the contents of that window, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook | open -f -a TextEdit 
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3 
    Repeat with this line:
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 4
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit 
    Remember, Steps 1-4 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • My canon t3i dslr camera automatically stops recording after about 10 sec. using a class 10 card.

    Hello,
    My canon t3i dslr camera stops recording automatically after about 10 sec. the manual said to use an SD card of class 6 or higher. I am using a class 10 and I have been able to record long videos in the past and all of a sudden the camera stops recording automatically after about 10 sec. Does anyone know why?  thanks

    Hi Rockinruby.
    We get this a lot here.  It turns out that even though the card is labeled as a Class 10 card, the most common problem when this occurs... is that it's still a defective card.
    Sandisk is a good company and they generally make solid products.  But there are two risks... (1) even Sandisk will occasionally have a bad card or a card that fails prematurely, and (2) it's exceptionally easy to create a forgery (if you peel the labels off these cards, they all look identical.)  
    When I buy cards (and I also buy Sandisk and/or Lexar cards), I'm careful to buy cards which well-exceed the specs necessary ... but I'm also careful to buy the cards only from reputable dealers.
    If you do a search, you'll find LOTS of articles about fake cards with tips on how to avoid them or how to spot them.
    But the bottom line ... at the end of the day you just want your problem solved.  If the card is bad, then there's nothing that you  would be able to do to the camera to make the problem away.  You would really need to replace that card.
    The issue that you are having is somewhat common... there are lots of threads on this.  But the majority of these are actually solved simply by replacing the card with a known good card and without making any changes to the camera.  
    It's not a guarantee that it's the card... but it's the most common cause.

  • Cannot stay open after about 30 sec.  Win vista, Adobe 10.1

  • Display light dims after about 30 sec

    No matter what I try, working with battery power or not, using the auto-brightness function or not, after about 30 sec my screen dims when I'm not touching any keys and/ or don't move the mouse....extremely annoying while reading a long article or watching pictures !!!!
    is there anyway to disable this terrible automatic function?
    It has nothing to do with auto-brightness, I turned that off in the system preferences option, but it hasn't changed anything.
    My screensaver is set to start after 10 min, so that has nothing to do with it either.....
    Thks for feedback
    Macbook Pro 17" 2 G RAM 100 G 7200 rpm   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I go into my Energy Saver preferences under "Options" and check "Automatically reduce the brightness of the display before display sleep." Then I uncheck it right away and it's fine until I reboot. Them I have to do it again.
