Data disk doesn't play all songs

When I burn a data disk, my JVC auto stereo does not recognize all the songs.  For example, say I burn a data disk with 80 songs.
Sometimes the JVC will recognize the entire 80, but other times it's 16, 44, 51, or any number of the 80.  Different playlist, different number. This is consistent...if it recognizes 18 songs on the first play, it stays at 18...that part isn't random.  What's random is the # of songs recognized.  I've tried different brands of CDs, and the JVC will recognize the same number of a particular playlist, regardless of brand.  All songs on these CDs play fine on my buddy's car player.
I'm guessing this is more of a JVC issue than iTunes, but they won't answer my email queries.  Just curious if anyone else
has encountered this.

Carl,
Given the consistency, the problem is most likely in the audio format of the songs.  When iTunes burns a data disk, each song is burned in the same format that it is in your library.
If you have all MP3s, there should not be a problem.  However, if you have any oddball formats mixed in, your JVC may not be recognizing them.
If you need to convert any songs, see this guide:  iTunes: How to convert a song to a different file format - Apple Support

  • Shuffle Doesn't Play All Songs?

    I've set up 2 playlists that I like to jog with.  I don't want a predictable order in which the songs play so I select shuffle.  Oops, let me further explain, I run with an app called Runkeeper, its quite popular.  When I go on a jog and record the jog with Runkeeper, it lets me select a playlist which will start when I start recording the jog.  Also, in Runkeeper, I can turn Shuffle on, which I always do.
    When I looked at the playlists recently I realized there are some songs that I've only heard maybe once, twice, or not at all.  I've been using the playlists since January and run three times a week.  The playlists are long enough so that I don't go through the entire list in one run.
    It seems to me that Shuffle is not doing a very good job at randomizing the song selection.  I'm hearing too many of the same songs and very little of others.  Is there anything I can do to improve the Shuffle selection of songs?  Not having a set order of songs really helps to keep the music fresh.

    In reference to ckuan:
    I thought about it, but haven't tried it yet.  I would mean starting the list, then popping into Runkeeper and starting the jog.  I'm not sure how many runs it would take to verify it was working.
    Work around tip:
    How about making a few shorter playlists that fit the time of your run and choose a different one for each run?

  • How can I play all songs from an artist in the ipad 2, with the new IOS 5?

    in the music app (which was named ipod before the update for the IOS 5) I want to play all songs for a certain artist that have different albums, but I dont know how.
    hope someone can help me

    Actually, JinKL, doing a search from "Songs" is harder to do and does not give the exact same result. It's harder to do because I have to key an artist's name rather than pick one from a list. The results aren't the same for several reasons. If you key an artist name that matches a song, you get that song, too. OK, that doesn't happen THAT much, but it does happen. And if I key a partial name, say "Morrison" for "Van Morrison", I get all the songs on "Morrison Hotel" by the Doors.
    "All Songs" should be added to the iPad music player. While they're at it, they should add column titles and allow allow sorting on the column values.

  • After loading the new OS now my songs do not play correctly. Titles are wrong on songs and it just doesn't play certain songs in random play or even if you select them individually. What's up? Kind of frustrating!!!

    After loading the new OS my songs do not play correctly, is anyone else having this issue? Titles are wrong on songs and it just doesn’t play certain songs in random play or even if you select them individually. What’s up? Kind of frustrating!!!

    I had the same issue.  In fact I posted it yesterday, but didn't get any replies.  I physically synched my phone to PC iTunes.  on the PC, under the phone/music tab, I unchecked the synch music box and then the apply button to remove all of the music from my phone.  Then once that synch finished, I went back and selected all music, and synch music and apply to put it back on to the phone.  So far, I haven't had an issue again, but I also haven't listened very long.  Hope this helps!

  • How can I play all songs from a genre  in the new iOS 7

    I used to select a genre in my music and played all songs randomly, now when I open a genre I can only play an album, not all the songs from a genre

  • IPod mini doesn't play ANY songs!!! Please Help

    My iPod mini doesn't play any songs. It doesn't play purchased music from the iTunes Music Store, ripped CDs, or ANYTHING. On the iPod I go to play a song but the music time counter remains on 0:00. When it does this faint sounds of the song trying to start can be heard, but then a lot of static comes up. A song did start once but it stoped at 7 seconds. I've tried the 5 Rs and everything I can think of! Please Help!

  • IPod touch 5th gen... play all songs on all albums by an artist in album order?

    Hi.
    On my old ipod classic I can play all songs on all albums by an artist in album order.  Is there a way to do this on the ipod touch 5th gen?  I can see how to play all songs by an artist but only in alphabetical order, not one album after another...
    Thanks,
    J.

    You can't please everyone ... some people want to be able to find a particular song by an artist and can't remember the name of the album from which it comes. By sorting all songs by an artist alphabetically you can go right to it. But I agree with you, I'd much prefer album order. Submit your feedback via the link provided, and yes the workaround is to create an On The Go playlist, or create one in iTunes.

  • Is there any way to play all songs in a playlist folder on an iPod/iPhone?

    iTunes allows you to play all songs from a specific playlist folder, but so far I haven't figured out a way to do that on my iPhone (4s, 32gb). Is there a way?

    I agree that it seems crazy that this can't be done on an iPhone.
    Here is the best work around I have found so far.
    (It's much quicker and easier to do than to describe.)
    In outline, you make an elementary Automator patch
    that uses your playlist folder to create a hard coded playlist on iTunes
    then just sync across to your iPhone.
    1/ Run Automator on your Mac.
    2/ In the Automator library select 'Music'.
    3/ Under Actions for 'Music' select "Get specified iTunes items" and drag this into the workflow area.
    4/ Using the  "Get specified iTunes items" widget  in the workflow area, press the "add" button.
    5/ This allows you to choose from a menu that will include your playlist folder.
    6/ Now under Actions for Music select "Add songs to playlist" and drag this into the workflow area
        so that the results of the first widget will feed into it.
    7/ In the  "Add songs to playlist" widget choose "New playlist". Then enter any name for your new playlist.
    8/ Run the patch (takes a fraction of a second).
    9/ Sync generated playlist to iphone.
    Job done.

  • HT204406 I have purchased match but when i try to play a song from the cloud on my ipad it displays a message of " cannot connect to iTunes Store" and doesn't play the song. i have reset both devices.

    I have purchased match but when i try to play a song from the cloud on my ipad it displays a message of " cannot connect to iTunes Store" and doesn't play the song. i have rest both devices.

    I called Apple Support and they walked me through it. They told me to basically copy and paste my music to the external hard drive. (I think.) Or maybe it was they had me transfer a folder to the EHD. I don't exactally remember it was a few years back. But I tried to plug in the EHD before starting and...nothing. Still says same thing, "locate file."

  • "Shuffle" does not play all songs

    I have the original iphone that I have had very good luck with. Lately, I've noticed that when using the shuffle feature of the ipod, it only plays some of my songs - for instance, I have 344 songs, but only 316 are playing in shuffle mode. When I take it out of shuffle mode, the little number changes to the actual number of songs I have. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it? The songs being left out are the songs most recently downloaded.

    I have the same problem with my iPhone 3GS, without any doubt the shuffle mode is not playing all songs. I have 600 songs, and I only use the shuffle mode. Of these 600 songs:
    - 50 have never been played in 6 months (play counter: 0)
    - 256 have been played less than 3 times
    - 129 have been played less than 7 times.
    - Remaining songs, except from the top 4, have been played from 8 to 79 times.
    The first four have been played respectively: 511, 319, 223, and 127 times. There obviously is a bias :\. I've mostly never heard more than half of my playlist (and again: I only use shuffle mode).
    If you find a solution, please let me know

  • I can play all songs on iphone but on itunes on pc it get message orignal file cannot be found

    I can play all songs when using itunes on my iphone, but when i try to play them on my pc i get the message "original file cannot be found" what up?

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives 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 .
