Can't play newly copied music in iOS 8 Music app when "Repeat Album" is on

Apologies in advance for inability to accurately describe what's going on, so I took a video of the weird behavior as well:
YouTube video of iOS 8 / iTunes 12 music syncing issue
I am trying to sync my music on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.1.2 with iTunes 12.0.1.26 via USB / Lightning. Note that the following behavior *only occurs when "Repeat Album" is ON*:
For certain albums (not all – can't find a pattern, but they are always the same albums), the album will appear on my iPhone, but when I go to play any track from the album, it appears that the track cannot be played so it tries to play the next track.
Since no tracks can be played and "Repeat Album" is on, it spirals into a loop without playing any songs until I hit the back button.
When I go back to the album overview view, it appears as if the Music app on my phone is trying to download all the tracks simultaneously.
When I force-quit out of the Music app and re-open it, the problem album no longer appears.
In order to solve the problem, it seems I have to make sure that I play each new album at least once with "Repeat Album" set to off. Otherwise, I have to re-sync with iTunes in order to get my music back on my iPhone. This seems to be occurring frequently enough (and is in general a bug) that I decided to post here.
Please let me know what additional information I can provide to help diagnose the issue.

UPDATE: This behavior (to an extent) still happens when "Repeat Album" is off. Instead of an infinite loop, it goes through all the tracks on the album (unsuccessfully) and kicks me out to the Album overview screen. Going back to list of Albums and tapping the Album again brings up "No Content: You can download music from the iTunes Store" but that screen immediately kicks me back to list of Albums.
So I am just even more confused now.

  • How can I play my itunes music files on Hama Internet Radio? My Hardware: iMac Maverick and iPad 2

    How can I play my itunes music files on my internet radio? Is there an App for iPad or iMac?
    Thanks

    Thanks for the suggestion. I subsequently realized that my Airplay settings on ITunes are ok. The problem is with the settings on Pure Music. I still havent figured this out. When i stream using just ITunes, it works fine, but when I play music using ITunes / Pure Magic, I still have an issue with Apple TV.

  • I can't play my itunes music it shows !this simbol and says the file couln't be find

    i can't play my itunes music it shows me ! this sinbol and says the file couln't be find

    This happens if the files are no longer where iTunes expects to find them. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the files, or that the drive they live on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.
    If the files are nowhere to be found on your computer, but exist on a device, see  Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    While deleting & reimporting works when the media can be found the process will delete user playlists, ratings, play counts, date added information and any other metadata not stored in tags.

  • Can't play or preview music and movies in Finder window

    I notice I can't play or preview music in the finder window. When I hit "play", the slider moves, but I don't hear any sound. Music is playing fine in iTunes. I also can't preview and play movies in the finder, like .mov files. In addition, I can't play music in a slideshow in iPhoto. It is also mute there. Does anyone know what is wrong? I just got this MacBook and had done a firewire transfer of my application files from my iMac desktop. All the programs seem to be working fine except for this music and video problem. Is there a problem with quicktime?
    Thanks.

    Run Audio MIDI Setup (Utilities folder) and be sure output is set to 44,100Hz 16-bit, and the volume sliders are to the right.

    How do I know what songs in my itunes account can be played as background music in a youtube video???

    To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
    Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.

  • Hello, I got a new computer with the old harddisk. Can't play my itunes music because not authorised. Apple ID is very old e-mail adress that doesn't exist anymore. When chose for secret question brth date seems wrong. Can't reach anyone!!!

    Hello, I got a new computer with the old harddisk. Can't play my itunes music because not authorised. Apple ID is very old e-mail adress that doesn't exist anymore and I forgot the password (5 years old??). When chose for secret question birth date seems wrong. Tried everything. I need to make a new apple-id but cannot connect the music that I bought under my old name to my new name. Can't reach anyone!!! Automatic FAQ system is of no help. What to do?

    That doesn't help me. For itunes it brings me to the express lane which doesn't help because my case is not in it. It's all standard procedure things. I understand those but my situation is different. The combination of a passport forgotten and an non-existing email adress (and birth dates that are not correct or not accepted). What I need is my password emailed to another email adress than the original one because that no longer exists.

  • I can't play my purchased music via computer while offline cuz it's all on the cloud.

    I just activated iTunes 11 on a new PC.  After successfully downloading old purchases from the iTunes Store, I find I'm dependent on the Cloud -- which means I'm dependent on an internet connection.  This ***** because the internet goes off and on constantly and my music stops and starts along with it.

  • When one or more family members who have been sharing one iTunes account wants to create their own iTunes account can they each upload the music/apps from the shared iTunes on their devices to the new iTunes account?

    When one or more family members who have been sharing one iTunes account wants to create their own iTunes account can they each upload the music/apps from the shared iTunes on their devices to the new iTunes account? 

    Yes. I would clarify your statement about the "shared" iTunes Library though. If you want each iOS device to have its own music library, you should create separate user accounts for them. Read:
    iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
    How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer

  • I now have 4 itouchs, 1 ipad mini, and three iphones for my own family members.  What's the bet way for me to setup itunes so that we can all share the same music, apps, movies, shows, etc?

    I now have 4 itouches, 1 ipad mini and 3 iphones in use by my direct family.  What's the best way for me to set things up so that we can all share the same music, apps, movies, shows etc?
    I would prefer to have one account to input dollars which allows all the users (my direct family) to share and buy things.
    Can we all have different user ID's however share the same account?

    I'll try to help a bit.
    ITunes match space is different to icloud space. With iTunes match you get storage for 25,000 non iTunes purchased tracks and other than a limit for individual file size, there is no memory limit.
    You can turn match on individuallyon each device (I have it turned off on my iPod but turned on on my iPad and iPhone). When you turn it on then you get access to all the tracks, and in my experience any playlists I create have transferred over very well. I understand that some people have had trouble with playlists though.
    I'm not quite clear with exactly what you mean regarding cleaning up your library, but be careful about using Match for this. There is no guarantee that matched songs will be exactly the same version as your own copy, due to some mismatches, so you could find some problems there. Personall, I am cleaning up my library before matching, but I am rather particular about keeping my library the way I want it. If you aren't as fussed then match could be the answer.
    Hope that helped.

  • ITunes is saying that I have over 4.78 GB under the category of "other", making it so my iPhone 4 can't add any data (music, apps, pictures, etc.). I'm currently using only 1.3 GB of storage on my iPhone, and the rest is "other". How do I fix this?

  • Does the EQ setting affect only audio played from the Music app?

    Does the EQ setting in Settings -> Music affect only audio played from the Music app or does it also affect any other audio? Specifically, I'd like to know if the setting is applied to audio podcasts that are played from Downcast. Thanks!

    They will only affect the Music app.
