Purchased song plays for a few seconds then skips.
Purchased song plays for a few seconds then skips. The rest of the songs from the album play fine. Purchased 5 albums at once and all songs play except the one. I've looked for a way to report this and can't locate a link and I was unable to reload the song from the purchased link. I am using Windows Vista and Itunes 10.6.3.5
Welcome to the Apple community.
Select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History. -
After purchasing an album 4 of the songs play for a few seconds then cut out
i purchased 2 albums off of iTunes and when i went to play the one album 4 of the songs play for a few seconds then cut out.
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items. -
i downloaded an album but one of the songs only plays for a few seconds then skips to the next song. how do i fix this?
Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads with the same problem then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption -

Purchased Songs play for a few seconds.
Whenever i play a purchased AAC audio file for the first time,it only plays for a few seconds and same thing happens track after track.
I recently upgraded to windows 8 and added songs to itunes library.After clicking any puchased track, it plays for 8-9 sec and next track plays with the same problem.I have to play the same track again to fully listen to it and the problem never happens again to the track.It just happens while playing a song for the first time.Same problem was happening in windows 7.I got the latest iTunes Version(10.6.3.25)
Help meOkay.
First you need to delete the file you jus purchased and move it to recycle bin.
Now, you browse the iTunes Store and redownload the song again. You won't be charged again and now try playing the song. It should play the whole song now!
It should solve your question -
Music app stops playing for a few seconds then starts
After updating to lollipop the music app would play for a few minutes then stops for a few seconds then play again, did not have issue with kitkat. Help please.
It's back!!!!!! The problem went away for a few days now same issue. It only happens when I am listening to sound files on the headphones - sudden pause then restart in the middle of playing the sound file, this happens with different music/podcase apps. No issue with bluetooth streaming or speaker phone. So it appears there is a software bug with Lollipop update - never had this problem with KitKat. Factory reset does not fix it. I wish there was a way to revert the phone back to KitKat. Hoping the new Lollipop update would fix this.

Songs Play for 4-5 seconds then skip to next in Win 7 64 bit
I installed a clean version of windows 7 64 bit then itunes 9. Songs are able to be imported but only play for 4-5 seconds then will skip straight to the next song and again and again...
Is anyone else having this problem or know of how to fix it?I have the same problem. I have seen several other people dealing with the same issue yet Apple has yet to deliver any answer...ridiculous. Kinda like the sync issue with Windows 7 64bit.. a sea of problems but not a fix in sight... maybe its time for a ZUNE....

Video only plays for a few seconds, then freezes
The video, which I got from the apple website, plays fine in iTunes but once I upload it to the iPod it will only play for a few seconds before freezing and becoming nonresponsive. Is this a software problem? Anyone know of a solution? Thanks.
Or you can follow these instructions.... (adopted from btabz)
Here are more detailed instructions on how to go back to 1.0, espescially if you bought your iPod in the last couple of months and it came with 1.1.
First, please download the older version of the iPod Updater here...
http://appldnld.m7z.net/content.info.apple.com/iPod/ww/win/061-2225.20051128.PDW nw/iPodSetup.exe
Now install that updater and restart your computer.
Now open the iPod updater (Start-->all programs-->iPod and find the iPod updater you just installed
Open the iPod Updater and connect your iPod. With that older version of the iPod updater you just installed, restore your iPod by clicking restore.
The iPod will restore and go back to software version 1.0. Now reload everything back into iTunes.
If you don't want to restore, see this...

i downloaded an album from itunes store into my itunes library on my computer. two of the songs downloaded a few seconds of music and then skipped to the next song. only had partial downloads for a portion of the music.

My iPod player within my iPhone isn't working properly when playing videos it will start then stop after a few seconds and also the sound bar appears then disappears, and when playing music no sound is coming out when I'm on a call I can hear everything properly and also on loud speaker! What can I do to remedy this? Please help!!!
If you haven't tried it yet, I'd eliminate memory issues first. Close all of the apps with the double tap on the home button method

BluRay video plays for a few seconds then goes black...audio plays fine
I have several videos that are to play from a main menu, then return to the menu. On all of them, only a few seconds (ranging from 4 to 9 seconds) plays, then the screen goes black while the audio continues. This is happening with all videos. The menu structure is working fine, when I go to the end of each video the menu returns. I'm on a MAC, and all quicktime movies play fine in quicktime player. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
SteveI'm in the Windoze world, and don't do BluRay, so I have no idea if the Avid codec is your problem
I guess all I can suggest at this point is to Google for something like
Encore CS5 Avid Codec
and see if anything jumps out -
As stated above I will get a random radio station coming through my computer playing ads. I found similar problems happening to pc users but no help offered to a mac user. No applications are running in the background (to my knowledge) and its really iritating. Any help or advice would be appreciated! Thanks!
I finally resolved my problem after spending way too much time on it. I simply handed my 160GB iPod to my husband to put his fav Stones & Beatles songs on and I went back to my 80GB Microsoft Zune which has never disappointed me.
After spending so much time trying to figure this out I did finally take it back to Apple Store who performed a diagnostic and found there was a problem with the device. They replaced it with a refurbished one which has similar issues. All I wanted to do was listen to my music. Was that too much to ask? So I am happy to be free of this problematic device. No more Apple for me!!
