Album plays slow on ipod

Hi this may seem a bit bizarre but I was wondering if anyone else has had this same problem, albeit a weird one!!
i connect my ipod to the stereo in my car and on one particular album, when i switch the ipod off or the stereo off and start the album from the same place it starts to play back slowly. It only happens on one particular album on the ipod, it does not do it on any of the other albums i have on there. I have tried changing the wire and it still does the same. If i change the album and put the original album back on (the one that plays slow) and it will be fine, however every time i stop the ipod and start it again I have the same problem, Its really frustrating as i wouldnt mind listening to the album all the way through without this problem.
if anyone can possibly help me solve this then I would really appreciate it!

Agian a month later.
I'm having the same problem.
This time, I thought I should call Apple support.
I got someone from overseas I guess because it was after hours.
He was a nice guy, but didn't know what he was doing; just told me to reformat.
He also told me to make sure I dissconnected the device correctly.
I really don't want to have to reformat this device agian.
It's takes about 5 hours to update the device with all my music "7000 files."
I feel their has to be another solution.

Songs play SLOWER on iPod???

When I play songs on iTunes, they play at normal speed. But when I listen to them on my 4G iPod or Nano, they seem to play slower. I've looked at the settings and everything seems to be correct for good performance and high quality listening.
Can someone help me, please!!!

hmmm, I dont think the ipod is the problem if you ripped your cd's
Did you rip the cd's or buy them off of itunes?
If you did rip the cd's try it again, it may be that the CD is just scratched, so it plays slower.

Why do I get the message " 'Song Tiltle' was not copied to iPod because it cannot be played on this iPod"

I got a new gen iPod Classic (160G) for Christmas, purchased Bob Marley's Album "Legend" and when I sync the playlist to the iPod I get an error message saying this one song cannot be played on this iPod. What gives? Is it something about "I Shot the Sheriff" that my iPod has a moral disagreement with? It had no issue importing and installing Body Count's "Kop Killa"...I'm confounded by this issue; Please, Someone, Help!

Not really likely, is it?
First of all, look on the iPod to see if the song is actually on there. (The last Sync of my Classic resulted in "song not copied... because it cannot be found." The song had previously been on the iPod. I checked and despite the fact that iTunes could not find the file, the song was still on my iPod. I checked the folder and the song was exactly where t was supposed to be. So I simply set iTunes to find it again. What happened? I don't know, iTunes simply threw a wobbly!)
Second, try another Sync. Does this change anything? If the song was on the iPod, does a second Sync remove the message? If the song was not on the iPod after the first Sync, does the second one put it on there?
What happens?

Was not copied because it cannot be played on this ipod

I am getting this message when I try to put songs on my ipod.
I have had the ipod for over a year and have never had any problems until now.
I bought an album of iTunes Store, burned an audio CD,imported it into iTunes as MP3 and tried to put the mp3 files on my ipod, but I keep getting the message This song was not copied because it cannot be played on this ipod, This has never happened before, any help appreciated. This is the way I have always managed my purchased music, has something changed within iTunes to stop you from doing this??

I'm having the same problem with files purchased from Apple, burned to CD, then imported as .mp3 files. The problem just started recently. This needs a fix as it is very annoying and makes me want to ditch this IPod.
The two solutions proposed in this forum will work but...
Rebuilding the library is very time consuming when you have a library with 30 GB. The other work around of removing files from the library then reimporting them also works, but is very time intensive for multiple files. Is there a way to get word to the folks who can fix this??
Thanks to those who offered the solutions.

Certain MP3 Files not transfered because They Cannot Be Played on This iPod

I've been using iPods for awhile, and besides the usual iTunes for Windows glitches, I haven't had many problems. Yesterday I tried to transfer an album I had added to my iTunes library over to my iPod (will play in itunes, did not buy from Apple store, fits iPod codec requirements (256kbit MP3s)), and I recieved the message that the files will not be transfered because they cannot be played on this iPod. I tried updating everything, and then even reinstalling everything, and nothing worked. I cannot get these files that play perfectly in iTunes and other programs and fit the description of what works with an iPod to do just that, work with my iPod. Any suggestions?
AMD Athlon XP 2600+ 1.92 GHz, 1GB RAM Windows XP Pro

First make sure your iPod software is up to date, the latest is Updater 2006-03-23. you can get it at http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
Also you may want to go here to follow some suggestions on songs that play in iTUnes and won't transfer to iPod http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93867
Play the songs in another player and see if there corrupt or something
You may want to try a thrid party program on the net to convert the files, or you could do a 2 step process of having Windows media player convert them to WMA files, then opening iTunes and having iTunes convert the files from WMA to MP3 or whatever format you have iTunes to Import files. this converting my degrade the sound slightly, but atleast you would be albe to add them to your iPod and you most likly won't notice THAT much of a difference

Is there a way to undo "autofill" so that all the songs, artists, albums, etc on my iPod touch 4th gen coincide/are synchronized again?

I don't know if you can help me, but I erroneously clicked on "auto fill" under the "on this ipod" category of the itunes screen that's located on my desktop. As a result, all the songs, albums, artists, etc., are now out of sync, don't coincide with one another, and when I touch a song to play on my ipod touch (fourth generation) it flips to a different artist/song and plays it automatically. Is there any way I can undo this, and if so, how? This occurred while I was purchasing/downloading music onto my iPod, and the usb cord was plugged into the modem at the time. Any suggestions/advice offered to solve this problem would be much appreciated.

Hello there, ShipTheWhouffle.
The following Knowledge Base article has some pointers on making sure you get the podcast onto your iPod shuffle:
iPod shuffle: Playing audiobooks and podcasts
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1831
Specifically:
Adding Audiobooks and Podcasts to iPod shuffle
The Autofill feature of iTunes will not add audiobooks and podcasts to any iPod model. They can be manually added by dragging them to the iPod shuffle in iTunes.
For iPod shuffle (3rd generation), you must enable Manually manage music in the Summary tab to drag songs to iPod shuffle. Additionally, you can automatically sync audiobooks using the Music tab and sync podcasts using the Podcasts tab in iTunes.
iPod shuffle (3rd generation)
Playing Audiobooks and Podcasts on iPod shuffle
When using iPod shuffle (1st and 2nd generation), if iPod shuffle is set to shuffle songs it will play all the audio files on iPod shuffle except audiobooks and podcasts1. To play an audiobook or podcast, set the switch on iPod shuffle to play in order .
When using iPod shuffle (3rd generation), podcasts and audiobooks will not be played when content is playedfrom All Songs. If content is played from a playlist synced from iTunes, audiobooks and podcasts will only be played if the iPod's switch is set to play in order . In addition to playlists synced from iTunes, iPod shuffle (3rd generation) will create a special playlist for each audiobook synced and one for podcasts. When accessing these special playlists, audiobook and podcast content will play whether the iPod is set to play in order or shuffle songs . Podcast are sorted by alphabetical order and then by episode date.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Why do my songs and audio books keep getting erased when I add a new book? Now some books will not play and the iPod does not keep track of where I was when I pause a book, leave for music and then go back!

About a month ago I added some new audio books to my iPod Classic and then after disconnecting, I discovered EVERYTHING had been erased.
I had to restore through my iTunes but then I could not load my music back on.
I uninstalled / reinstalled iTunes and completely reformated the iPod drive.
I successfully got my music and books back on but then added a new book two days ago only to discover everything got erased AGAIN!!!
Of course, my 1 Year Warranty was up about a week before the first incident.....
I formatted the iPod again, uninstalled / reinstalled iTunes (it was freezing during sync) and downloaded all my music and books again.
Now I have several books that will not play (they play on iTunes and they played on the iPod before all these events) and the iPod does not keep track of where I was in a book when I have to stop and go to something else.
Does anyone know what is going on with this thing??? I have a 5th Gen Video and in all the years I've had it, I've NEVER had problems like this!
Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do to get my iPod Classic up and running properly again?
Thanks.

When iTunes/iPod sync process failed due to timeout, the iPod, has only the initilaised filesytem structure at the start of the Sync.
The timeout failure could be due to
Bad hardisk - do the iPod disk diagnostic, refer to this excellent post by tt2
Slow USB port or resource - Dont use any USB hub, disconnect all other USB devices while syncing
Timeout due to Antivirus or other plugins - disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus or monitoribng software if you are syncing.
Preferably stop doing other things while syncing this ancient device, which the latest iTunes designer, think will soon be extinct.
Have a nice day!

Paid for download, now it won't play on my iPod

I downloaded Anthology by Frankie Valli and 4 Seasons, cost $15.99. I have to manually transfer as I have changed computers and cannot sync automatically to my iPod or will lose over 1500 tracks already recorded. I have been doing this successfully for a long time. Today when I thought I had transferred I got the message that this albumn could not play on my iPod. Don't know if this is the only one because it was recorded a long time ago or since I just downloaded the iTunes 7 update, all future downloads will only play on my computer.
Help someone. Also I am out the $15.99 as I don't listen to music on my computer!!! I donwload specifically to play on my iPod

Chris:
thank you so much. You were right. Now the album is playing on my iPod. I owe you a great big thank you.
Thanks again. I am a grandmother and not totally up to date with all this technology and so as I take one step forward, I take 3 steps back. Thanks to people like you, I am muddling along

THERE IS A SOLUTION MY FRIENDS! PROBLEM SOLVED

How do I update Album artwork onto my ipod.....

How do I update Album artwork onto my ipod after i have found the artwork and added it to my itunes?
i tried to just plug in my ipod and sync. it but that didnt work.

*Why is artwork not showing on my iPod when it's there in iTunes?*
iTunes will display a cover in many of it's views provided at least one track from the album has embedded artwork. The iPod appears to load only the artwork from track one to create the cover flow and album views which means that it can sometimes fail to display art for albums even when you can see the art in iTunes. Further, when tracks are played on the iPod, artwork is displayed if and only if it exists in the currently playing track, so track one may show art while track two does not.
*How to find tracks without artwork*
To find all the tracks without artwork so that you can update them you can try http://www.stum.de/itunes-find-tracks-without-artwork/ for Windows or http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=trackswithoutartwork for Macs. Use Google, Amazon, Discogs etc. to locate relevant images. Ideally these should be square, 320x320 pixels or above and borderless to give the best results in the various menus. If you have artwork for some tracks of an album, but not others, find the album in the main music folder, select a track with artwork, right-click (Option-Click for Macs) on the art & click copy, then select all the tracks of the album, use CTRL-I or Command-I to *Get Info* and then paste the image into the artwork box.
I say 320x320 because I believe (from using TouchCopy) that it's the size used in the iPod cache so if you're going to crop or resize you might as well work to that size. Otherwise 200x200 is probably good enough.
*Rebuild artwork cache*
Sometimes the artwork cache becomes corrupt and fails to show correct artwork, even when this is properly set up in iTunes. To rebuild the artwork cache, connect your iPod to iTunes. Locate the iPod in the Sources pane on the left-hand side, then select the Music tab. Remove the tick from *Display album artwork on your iPod*, sync the iPod, reselect the option & sync again.

Why wont my dane cook cd play on my ipod?

all my cd's have gone onto my ipod easily. when i tryed to put this one from itunes (it played fine there) to ipod, it said this cd can not be plays on this ipod. i have changed the type to mp3 and others, but it still wont work
help

In iTunes, go to edit-->preferences. Click the advanced tab, then the importing tab. Change import using to AAC Encoder and set it to high quality. Click OK.
Now highlight all the songs in the album in iTunes. Right click one, making sure all remain highlighted, and go to convert selection to AAC. See if it converts them. Do these converted versions go onto the iPod?
