Airtunes doesn't allow some songs in itunes to broadcast to A. Express

Airtunes works fine most of the time. After downloading some mp3s into iTunes and playing them I noticed that they weren't being broadcast to the A. Express. When I tried it with other songs it worked fine.(one thing I also noticed was that when I play a song that is broadcast, before it plays the song, iTunes puts up a little window that says "broadcasting to Airport Express". On these new mp3s when I play them, there is no little window about an attempt to broadcast the mp3s).
Any insight?
Thanx ahead of time.
Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   iTunes 7.2

iTunes doesn't have code to work specifically with non-Apple players. Manually drag the songs from the open iTunes library to the player in the Windows Explorer.

  • HT1725 I was downloading some songs and iTunes shut down.

    I was downloading some songs and iTunes shut down. It says I've purchased a song but it isn't in my purchased playlist, but it charged me for it. How do I get the song, or get my money back?

    You've tried the Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option on your computer's iTunes, and does it show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes ?
    If not then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com

  • I cannot play some songs on itunes, I get a prompt for an old email address which not longer exists and I don't know the password.  HOw can I get them authorized to my new email address and password?

    I cannot play some songs on itunes, I get a prompt for an old email address which no longer exists and I don't remember the password.  How can I get these tunes transferred to my new email address and password?

    In one of the help pages for managing your Apple ID (http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40), it shows two separate sections, one for Apple ID and one for Primary Email address. When I go to manage my Apple ID, I see only a single section for both. Can the two be 'separated', especially when you face the situation of having to discontinue your email address for some reason?
    I also noticed that when navigating to Apple ID Support Communities, it shows my nickname 'dishdy'. How and when did I insert this? In the current sequence for creating an Apple ID I don't see this. In my current profile I don't see this.
    In any case, I have freed myself from my previous Apple ID (@artemis.it) on my iPhone.
    Thanks for your help.

  • My e-mail has changed, but I purchashed some songs in iTunes using my old e-mail address as my account name... so when I try to play the sonngs I bought and paid for - it keeps asking me to authorize my PC first, but I don't remember the password!

    My e-mail has changed, but I purchashed some songs in iTunes using my old e-mail address as my account name... so when I try to play the sonngs I bought and paid for - it keeps asking me to authorize my PC first, but I don't remember the password! And since the old e-mail address is no longer active, I can't even chenge the password- becasue it's sends the link to do so via e-mail!  Even when I use the "ask personal questions" option to verify and it asks me for my date of birth, I put it in and it still won't acccept.

  • I converted some songs in iTunes to work with an eMusic device.  I'd like to delete them, but I'm not sure which of the duplicated songs to delete.  Some titles are black and some are gray.

    I converted some songs in iTunes to work with an eMusic device.  I'd like to delete them, but I'm not sure which of the duplicated songs to delete.  Some titles are black and some are gray.

    let's just doublecheck some things quickly. do any of the affected songs play in itunes at the moment? if so, when you play them, do they ask to be authorised?
    if so, does the authorisation go through successfully, or do you get an error message? (if you get an error message, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
    if the authorisation seems to go through successfully, with the authorised songs sync to the ipod?

    I had mine mess up a few months ago and tried to get the e-mail three different times and it never came. I ended up scheduling for a tech to call me to figure it out.

  • Can't load some songs from iTunes to iPod

    A few of my songs on iTunes can't be dragged onto my iPod Shuffle. What am I doing wrong?

    Are you using a 1st or second generation shuffle and what format are the songs that won't move? Some formats that play in iTunes are not compatible with the 1st generation iPod shuffle, Aiff and Apple Lossless for instance. Apple Lossless is not supported on the 2nd generation shuffle:

  • Problems with some songs in iTunes (and my iPod)

    Hi,
    I do not know whether this is the right category for my problem, but I did not find a suitable one.
    I have problems with some songs in iTunes. They do not sound right. It is hard to me to describe my problem in English (thanks to apple's "great" support...I was not able to contact them personally except by phone). The songs "hang", they sound like someone reels (?) it. The problem does not only appear with iTunes but also with my iPod nano first generation.
    My godmother brang me CDs where that problems appear (but not the whole CDs have that problem, only a few songs) from the USA - I live in Germany. Maybe that is cause of the error. But I cannot imagine that, because CDs there and here have the same format and I have several CDs from the US where is no problem at all. I am absolutely sure that the CDs are originals and not a copy, by the way.
    Maybe you can help me, it would be great!
    Thanks,
    Jule

    Yes, I thought that's what Restore should do, but the problems remain.  Hmmm, the out of order 'album's' songlist is notated 1 of 8, 2 of 8, 3 of 8...  I'll try 01, 02...
    Probably a good idea.
    The other album is running through the list of songs like fast-forward, but not playing the songs.  Then, iPod locks up.
    Do these same tracks play okay in iTunes?  What is the original source for these tracks?  Were they downloads from the iTunes Store or imported from outside of iTunes?  What format are they encoded in and at what bitrate?

  • I want to delete some songs from iTunes but no delete button appears when i right click or when i try to delete it from edit. what can i do?

    I want to delete some songs from iTunes but no delete button appears when i right click or when i try to delete it from edit. what can i do?

    If the songs are downloaded into your iTunes library (i.e. they don't have the cloud icon against them) then you should be able to delete them by selecting them and pressing the delete button on your keyboard.
    If they do have the cloud icon then they are in the cloud - you can turn off the showing of all icloud music via the 'Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases' on the Store tab in iTunes > Preferences (command-comma), or you can hide individual tracks and/or albums so that they don't show in the cloud : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases.

  • AirTunes stops streaming after each song but iTunes shows it playing

    I've read through a lot of posts and either people are having the same issue just describing them differently or I'm seeing an entirely different issue.
    My setup is Windows Vista running iTunes 8, Airport Express and an iPod Touch running the Remote app. I just bought it all yesterday and did all the firmware and software updates it asked me to when setting it all up.
    I had it setup wirelessly and working -- the remote controlled iTunes which send audio to my AE and it worked beautifully. Then I realized the music stopped, I went to check and iTunes still showed the music playing, but no sound was coming out of the remote speakers. If I change the speaker output to computer then back to the remote speakers it starts playing again.
    I've disabled wireless on the AE and put a long wire across to rule out wirless interference or problems. I've disabled the Windows Vista firewall as well.
    I've tested both from the remote and from using iTunes directly. So I've ruled out the Remote App from the equation (I think). I say that, because first thing this morning I ran using just iTunes and it worked for 15 straight songs. I used the remote to change albums and start another and after the first song played it went silent. I noticed in iTunes a playlist called "Remote" comes up so I was thinking the Remote was causing it. I switched over to my library local on iTunes again removing the remote and it keeps happening anyway. So I'm not sure if by using the remote I put it in this "state" or if it's really not the Remotes problem.
    OK, so once it happens, it stops streaming after very single song however iTunes still shows it's playing fine. To fix, turn the speaker off then on again or switch to computer then back to remote again. It works doing this via the Remote App or on iTunes directly.
    This is FRUSTRATING! I spent a lot of money on the iPod, AE and getting a cheap stereo receiver/amp to feed my in-house speakers and now it's pretty much not even useful.
    Suggestions? Help? Anything?

    I wanted to post a follow-up. I solved my own issue after starting to rule out every possible cause.
    I have a Western Digital networked hard drive (NAS) which houses all of my MP3's. I knew accessing this drive was pretty slow but I've had my MP3's on it and iTunes' library is all coming off this drive. It has worked fine on my computer for years. However, it appears that the lag doesn't play nice with AirTunes.
    I moved my entire iTunes library (about 80 GB) to my local machine's hard drive, rebuilt my library and now it plays flawlessly!
    Just so people know, I've updated firmware on the AirportExpress and the iPod Touch, I have the new version of Remote on the touch and am running iTunes 8 on Windows Vista with its library on the local harddrive. No glitches, pauses, or problems. I ran it for 6 hours during a party over the weekend without flaw.
