HELP...only playing a few songs

I use my ipod on a daily basis and when I have it on shuffle it only plays about 15 songs out of the 250 I have on it. How can I fix this problem? Please let me know ASAP! Thanks

this happened to mine too! i took it in to the apple store and what the girl said was that you have to individually drag each song over to your ipod when its plugged in because some of the songs that you have may be defected, whether it be from downloading elsewhere or just a defective song. But you drag them over and if you dont see the song transferring on top where the song information usually is when it plays, then its a defective song and you have to delete it. Its a pain in the butt at first, but then its better once it over and done with. By the way, you have to click "manually transfer" on the screen when you click on your ipod or it wont work. Just do this with every song, and itll be good to go!

    Does any of this mean mean anything regarding the problem?
    All it shows is that the tracks SHOULD be OK.
    Next thing to try is to restore her shuffle in iTunes and reload.

  • Playlist will only play a few songs then stop.

    After upgrading to ITunes 7.0, my playlist will stop playing after a few songs. Ihave to Restart the playlist everytime. Inever had this problem with the previous versions of ITunes.. What can I do to have all the songs in my play list play without stopping?

    I've had the same thing, definately seems like a small bug. Bizarrely with mine it only does it sometimes, but it seems that when it reaches the last song in the playlist (as in the one at the bottom) it treats that as if it is the last song to be played regardless of the shuffle feature.
    Haven't managed to overcome it yet, but it's rarely a problem for me to just press play again

  • HT4623 What's with audio xciter, it only plays a few songs, ones that it won't gives me a message ,upgrade to iTunes plus, what's with that, oh, it ALso says the music is drm protected, upgrade to iTunes plus?

    Anyone know what's wrong with audio xciter? It tells me to upgrade to iTunes plus, what's that?when I play my music, it plays a few but wont others because it's drm protected, maybe wrong word and tells me to upgrade to iTunes plus, think I bought junk software!

    I am seeing the same thing. 95% of my songs are DRM protected -according this app. But they are not. Hopefully someone has an aswer. The web page support for Xciter does not mention this issue.

  • HT203167 Some songs only play a few seconds

    Just downloaded new John Mayer, Born and Raised, album and there are about 6 songs that will start playing but only play a few seconds of the song and the skip to the next track.  Can't find any answers in iTunes support.  Any suggestions????

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

    Did you remove the entries from your library, or just the physical files?
    Delete the entries, close and reopen iTunes, select iTunes Store in the left column, then Purchased in the quick links section. Your missing songs should be listed under Music > Not on his Computer.

  • Apple TV 2 G - Can only see a few songs in my library, can't see any Movies

    Just bought the Apple TV. I thought that once I setup Homesharing that I would be able to see my entire iTunes library including music and movies. Thus far I can only see a few songs.
    I have updated my iTunes to 10.2 and checked for software updates on the Apple TV, but get the same results.
    I am able to start playing a movie in iTunes and then select Apple TV from the list of devices at the bottom right corner of my iTunes library and it will then it will play on my TV, but if this is how I need to play every movie I'll be returning the Apple TV.

    when I navigated on my Apple TV to Computers > "My iTunes Library" at the top of my TV displayed some of my music. I did not realize that I had to click on the "My iTunes Library" to get more option. Once I clicked on "My iTunes Library" I then saw all of the media options and all the music and movie titles. Can't believe it took me this long to figure out.

  • Bought a whole album and I only wanted a few songs and now all songs from album are on my phone but not my mac

    Okay so today one of my friends used my phone to sign in to his Apple I.D I don't know why? Anyway...once he logged off there was a whole album I bought and I only wanted a few songs from that album and deleted the songs I didn't want but somehow those songs I deleted from the album showed up on my Music on my iPhone but not my Mac. I tried to download it so I could delete it but it says in 90 days you can use another Apple I.D to download songs. Is there a way I can delete the songs I don't want from that album but keep the songs I want? Help?

    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases
    The iphone is not a backup device.
    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

    since there is no info in your profile, which ma model, os, which iTunes you are using, limits anybody from delving deeper into your problem.
    Update your profile, you will probably get more help.

  • My i pod classic will only download a few songs

    My i pod classic will only download a few song. Any ideas on what to do?

    - If you go to the playing screen, is Repeat on? It is the racetrack icon on the left side of the screen right below the scrubber bar. Tap the icon until it is white to turn repeat off.
    - Next try unsyncing/resyncing the music.
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod

  • My 120gb ipod classic always restarts after playing a few songs...WHY?

    This is extremely annoying and now has happened to the last 2 ipod classics I have had (both 120gb). Apple has made a terrible product or something is wrong with something I am doing. After playing a few songs or skipping through songs the Ipod will shut off and restart itself. PLEASE HELP!

  • Apple TV will only play the first song on an album, why?

    When I press play on an album (music), Apple TV only play the first song, then it stops. Why?? I can understand it when I press play on a spesific song/track, but when I press play on an entire album, I want Apple TV to play the entire album.

    You need to put checkmarks in front of all your music.
