Downloading and song playing problems

I recently downloaded about 15 USD worth of music The music downloaded fine at least it seemed to at first.I also downloaded two south park episodes simultaneaously. First my problem with the episodes whenever I leave the itunes running to download the episodes I get an error message that says it's corrupted and I need to check purchases and redownload. I did this three times it hasn't worked.
Now my second problem, the music I downloaded will play but only for 1/3 or so of the song and then it will skip to the end and go on the the next song (I know it skips because if you get to the 1/3 mark while listening to the song it counts as a play in the playcount column) This could be because I downloaded the music with the movies but I can't find a way to redownload the songs that are messed up I have tried check your purchases but it hasn't worked. Any response would be greatly appreciated

Well likly the issue with the video is you have a corrupt cache, so go here and try the steps http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303887
For the songs, you need to look and see if there stopping/skipping in the EXACT same location of the song or different areas of the song. This is to see if its an issue with the itunes program your hardware or if the file itself is corrupt.
Try going to control panel>Quicktime>audio tab check "Safemode" hit OK and reboot the PC. Also try going to the sound card makers site and installing updates to your soundcard

  • How do I transfer my iTunes library with the playlists and song plays from a PC to a MAC

    I just recently got a MacBook and I'd like to transfer my iTunes library as well as the playlists and song plays over to this computer and i was wondering how i should go about doing so.
    I've found a few tutorials on how to edit the .xml files but I haven't really succeeded in doing so.

    Use an external HDD and copy the entire iTunes folder from the original computer to the Mac and place it in ~/Music.

  • If I do a normal library and playlist backup, will that also backup song rating and song played count?

    Hi everyone, just wondering if when I do the routine backup straight from the iTunes menu and I've exported my playlist and library.xml file. I've also backed up the entire /Program Files/iTunes folder. Will they also backup my 'Song Rating' and 'Song Played Count' for my playlist? Thanks.

    Backup from iTunes has gone. The .xml file isn't enough to rebuild the library completely. The .itl file is the crucial one, though you need all the media too.

    Depends on the game. If you are talking about Flash-based games or MMORPGs like World of Warcraft, then no.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Connecting your MacBook Pro and your MacBook Air will be the fastest way, but you have to spend money on cables and adapters (also, your MacBook Pro doesn't support Thunderbolt).
    As you have a Time Capsule, one thing you can do is to start your MacBook Pro and make a Time Machine backup. Then, turn on your MacBook Air and set it up. Setup Assistant will ask you to restore a backup, so select the option to restore the backup from the Time Capsule and be patient. This can take a lot of time if you have to migrate a lot of files

  • ITunes Store freeze while downloading and now permanent problems

    I bought an album through the iTunes Store today, and while downloading, iTunes completely froze. Not sure how that freeze was caused, could be that I was using up a little too many system resources with other stuff running in the background.
    In any case, the album was only partially downloaded, so when I restarted iTunes I used the "search for available downloads" option to succesfully download the rest of the album, or so I thought. Turns out it did download all songss except for one, and that one doesn't show up anymore when I retry the "available downloads" option.
    Strangely, whenever I now select one of the other songs from the same album in my library, iTunes completely freezes! I can only get it working again by stopping the process through taskmanager and restarting. This only occurs when the Genius-bar is shown, so it looks like looking up these songs through the iTunes store is causing a problem somehow. Does anyone have any ideas to
    a) get the missing song from the store and
    b) keep iTunes from crashing??
    Is there a way to deinstall and reinstall iTunes without losing my settings, iPhone backups and library? Or can I repair an installed version somehow?
    (I have the most recent iTunes version (8.0.1.11), running on WinXP SP3 - oh and it did synch the incomplete album to my iPhone and I can play the songs without problems on that)

    Deleting the album, reinstalling iTunes and then re-downloading the album turned out to be the way to fix it.

  • I am unable to play my songs, my computer is authorized.  Why cant I play my songs I just downloaded and songs in my library??

    I am unable to play my songs and my computer is authorized

    I had the same problem. I went through the discussion forums here and someone suggested that the files might be corrupted. So I deleted the files that wouldn't let me play them, then re-downloaded them through the Purchased menu in the iTunes store. Now they work just fine.
    Hope this helps you.

  • Playlists have disappeared and songs play only 1 min.

    Hi,
    I have spotify premium but in my iPhone suddenly the playlists have disappeared, the all songs in starred as well and when I select a song, only plays during 1 min.
    I have log out and log in, delete and download again the app, check in my computer if the premium account is on, but nothing works! This problem is only in the iphone, it works perfect on iPad or computer.
    What else can I try?
    Thank you

    2 devices:1. Iphone 6 - IOS 8.4
    2. Ipad Air 2 - IOS 8.4
    Location: The Netherlands
    Login: oppositemarco in both devices
    Issue occured after batteries were out and after recharging the Iphone I could not access the Spotify App on my Iphone.
    After deleting the Spotify App, turn my Iphone off and on again, reinstalling the Spotify app I had access again to the Spotify app, however my playlists are no longer visible on my Iphone.
    The only way to get to my playlists again is via 'recently played'.
    However it is also not possible to set anymore to 'offline' for my own playlists (that I compiled myself), that are listed only under 'Recently played' since it will be put back again to the original online only. 
    Spotify, could you please sort this out since I am going on holiday soon.

  • Automatic Downloads and Song Order

    Hi,
    I have automatic downloads enabled on my iPhone 4 so songs I buy on my computer are automatically synced with the phone over the air right after I buy them.  Great feature.
    Here's the problem: when I buy a song on my computer, it puts it at the top my purchased playlist (little arrow is pointing down in the top left corner), thus organizing the songs putting newest at the top.  This is how I want my playlist to appear so I don't have to scroll down through 450+ songs to get to my newest ones.  Despite everything working fine when I buy a new song (it goes to the top just like I want), when it automatically downloads to my phone, it puts it at the very bottom, i.e. right after my oldest-purchased song.
    This is super-annoying because of the way I play my music in my car.  The problem is fixed once I do a sync via the cable, it re-orders the song correctly to the "top" of my playlist, but shouldn't an automatic syncing be smart enough to put the song in the correct place like it does on my computer?
    Thanks for any help!  Hopefully this is fixed when iCloud is fully up and running but I figured I'd ask if anyone had a brilliant solution or even just had the same problem.

    Hey gang-
    Okay, this gets more and more bizarre.   I sent a support email to Apple and basically they said  "...it seems that someone else associated your Mac with their Apple ID. That's the reason your purchases won't download."
    Yikes!   My wife and I live alone- and we have exactly one and only one Apple ID.    Would somebody have needed physical access to my iMac to do that?
    Support then said "You can view which devices or computers are currently associated, remove unused devices or computers, and see how long before they can be associated with a different Apple ID from the Account Information page in iTunes on your computer."
    Okay- so I logged into My Account in iTunes.   On the list of associated devices, my own iMac is NOT on that list.   But I am logged in under the same Apple ID I've had for years on that iMac.
    So my big question right now is...if my iMac (that I've owned for 5 years) has somehow been dis-associated from my Apple ID, how do I find out what Apple ID it is associated with?
    Thanks gang for trying to help me unravel a mystery.
    Dave
    PS- Here's an Apple Tech article on iTunes associations, but it doesn't really go beyond what we've discussed above:

  • Any fix for random art and song order problems after adding new music?

    If I sync my touch with itunes as a restore, all cover art, albums and playlists are correct. Once I add anything new or make a change and re-sync, random cover art is missing and random songs are in the wrong order. The only way to fix the problems is through a complete restore. Has anyone else had this problem or figured out a fix? I am using the latest itunes on a PC with XP.

    A few issues, but sorry let me try to understand.
    Adding new music, 'XXXX's iPod cannot be written or read'' can you let me know the number. most likely music format is not iPod Compatible like HE-AAC.
    started skipping songs  - these are normally due to corrupted ID3 tags, try converting them -File-> Advance -> IPOD version or use MP3 validator to fix all songs in the library. (My Apologies, only work for MP3 music that skipped)
    As for item 2, you can try Hard Reset if you like to download MP3 validator.
    After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.

  • Itunes Album Art and mp3 play problem

    I could use some advice on a solution or what to try next. I have 30k+ songs that I added album art too and synced with my video Ipod. Everything was going fine until a couple of days ago. I noticed in Itunes that certain albums now do not display the album art, Where the album art should be, it says "album artwork not modifiable" For these same albums, Itunes won't play the songs either. I press the play button and nothing happens. The artwork is still on my Ipod, and I can play the music from my Ipod, but not on Itunes.
    I have verified that the compatibility mode solution did not fix my problem.
    The files are all unprotected mp3's
    The MP3's are not hidden or write protected.
    The MP3's play in Windows media player just fine.
    When I copy the files from my Itunes library to another folder, and try to re-import the music, Itunes goes through the motions of re-adding the music but does not add the songs.
    I have taken the MP3's and ran them through DBpowerAMP and converted the unplayable MP3 to a new MP3 file and then Itunes recognizes it, but I have lost my artwork.
    With the quantity of songs I have and the fact that not all songs are corrupt, I'm stuck on how to get Itunes to recognize this music again. Is this an Itunes problem? What should I try next? I'm running Win XP SP2, Itunes 6.0.3.5.

    I had this happen to one song file. I never figured out why, but it seemed that the addition of the artwork corrupted the file so that it was unplayable within iTunes. No other of my 13,000 songs have ever had this problem.
    This was an AAC format song in my case. See this thread for some possible fixes for MP3 files:

  • Rented 2 movies, watched one, second one kept downloading for 3 days and finally failed. I was charged for it, it never downloaded, cannot be found in "Available Downloads" and "report a problem" page NEVER loads, no email contact. Please help

    Rented 2 movies, watched one, second one kept downloading for 3 days and finally failed. I was charged for it, it never downloaded, cannot be found in "Available Downloads".
    When you go to "Report a problem" next to the item (Great Gatsby) on the email invoice or on the online account  - it takes you to online support - if you elect problems with iTune downloads the page NEVER opens...  no email contact. Please help

    This is bad - I have an Apple automated response that they got my report on 12/6, 12/10 and 12/14, and I haven't heard anything from them since the 6th when I got one reply that told me to do things I tried before reporting the problem. Between the 6th and 10th I replied to their response 4 times and they ignored me, forcing me to report a problem with two more items that wont download but getting no response.
    How do they get away with this kind of behavior, especially for someone with FIVE Core 2 Duo macs and thousands of dollars of of iTunes store purchases? I'm getting really ******.

  • Issues with Windows 8 and Songs Playing

    Hello --
    I recently upgraded to Windows 8 Pro and I didn't have any issues at first. However, I noticed once I synched up my iPod that some of the songs wouldn't play completely on the iPod and now none of the songs on my computer will play on any media player. Has anyone else experienced anything like this?? I'm desperate for a fix.
    Thanks!

    Would that make my MP3 songs not even in play in Windows Media Player? Shouldn't they still play in something else? I also have DoubleTwist and they don't play in that either.
