  • The audiobook I downloaded will only play for 20 minutes then quits. Never had this happen before. How do I fix?

    Downloaded an audiobook onto my iPod Touch and listened to the first 20 minutes of it. Then it just stopped playing. No matter how I tried to get back to where it left off, it would only begin from the start. I tried putting the same audiobook onto another device and it does the same thing. So, then I tried to listen to the story through iTunes on my desk top---- same thing. How can I fix this?

    It sounds like the file you downloaded has been corrupted in some way, although you should check using Get Info > Options tab that it doesn't just have a truncated stop time. Use the report a problem link in your account history and explain the circumstances. Someone from the store should help you get the issue resolved with a fresh download.

  • HT203167 one of my tracks i.e. Sultans of swing ( Dire Straits) should last for 10.54 minutes but now only plays for ten second then carries on to the next track, how can I restore the original download ?

    One of my tracks i.e. Sultans of Swing (Dire Straits) should last for 10.54 minutes but cuts off after 11 seconds, then plays the next track.
    How can I re-download the track again to restore it?

    Delete problem track from library (if it is an iTunes Store purchase and you entitled to redownload past purchases - stop otherwise!)
    Close iTunes
    Open iTunes
    Select iTunes Store in left-hand column
    Select Purchased in right-hand column
    Select Music and Not on this computer
    The track should be listed now with a small cloud symbol which lets you download it.
    If you start downloading the track in step 7 then... While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked. (Should should help improve the reliablility of future downloads made with this build of iTunes.)
    If the above hasn't helped then... contact the iTunes Store support staff through the "Report a problem" links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • Audio plays for a second then goes dead

    It doesn't happen every time, but often, when I move the playhead to part of the file (in waveform editor or in a multitrack project) I only get a second or two of audio.
    The playhead continues to move, but I don't get any further audio and the meters don't show anything either.
    I have 10.4.3. Dual 800 Quicksilver (the first Quicksilver). I'm listening to the audio through the digital audio port (not an optical port - the powered port that they used for those Harmon Kardon speakers. It's not even actually digital, they just call it that for some reason). Speakers are plugged directly into the computer with this breakout cable: http://www.griffintechnology.com/archive/audio/prospeaker.html I don't think that is my problem, but thought I would provide the information just in case (the meters in Soundtrack go dead as well, which indicates to me that this is a software issue of some sort)

    I am having the same issue. I've tried connecting a variety of speakers including headphones to the Airport Express 802.11n with all the latest and greatest firmware updates. Same result with all. I've tried switching back and forth from Computer to Airport Exress and even Multiple Speakers. Computer output is fine even with Multiple Speakers. Nothing but a blip via Airport Express. My old Airport Express 802.11b/g worked fine in this exact configuration before it died. This replacement Airport Express 802.11n isn't showing me the love.

  • My songs only play for 6 seconds

    My imported music is only playing for six seconds then going to the next track. All of my purchased music works fine though.  The imported files also play in their entirety on Windows Media Player so I know it's not the files' fault. Any suggestions?

    Sure your gone for the day, but no luck. Still get 15 sec and then on to the next song.

    Either this needs to get fixed or i will request my money back because i will not work for my money while other lie about what i spend it on.

    Try deleting the problematic tune (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.

  • Can't import songs and ones in library only play for 45 seconds

    I'm in the process of moving my music collection to a new computer with a bigger hard drive. I installed the latest version of iTunes on the new computer, copied all the folders and contents of the itunes folder to the new computer in the same location.
    I bought a couple new songs successfully but now I can't add any of the files from my previous computer to the new library. I was able to import a few songs that iI purchased when on my original machine but now they only play for 45 seconds and jump to the next song in the playlist (if check) And now when I drag and drop songs on the Library to import them absolutely nothing happens.
    And yes, the new computer is authorized and the permissions on the folders are read / write.
    Any one have an idea of how to fix this? If not, I just going to burn all my songs to CD and import them that way and say so long to iTunes... just too much BS to just move a music library!

    Sounds like the PC's authroization file is messed up, or else the iTUnes preferences files.
    Follow the directions in this article, the SC Info file holds the PC authroization for iTMS songs.
    iTunes Does Not Open After Upgrading
    And also deleted these 2 preferecnes files:
    C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    They will all get rebuilt when you open iTunes the next time. It should ask for authorization one last time, is all.

  • HT1567 trying to preview song but only plays for 5 seconds

    When i preview a song it will only play for 5 seconds instead of the 1min/half it allows. I 've never had this problem before. I update the software, but it still will not allow me to listen to the song no more tham 5 seconds

    I have had this problem for quite awhile.  Sometimes the preview plays all the way through, or not.  I had it in the previous version and now the new version.  There is no help from Apple/iTunes.  It seems odd that WE must continue to try and find the solution to THEIR errors without any comments or help from Apple.
