HELP: Songs stop halfway through since iPhone 6 switch

I noticed the other day after upgrading to the iPhone 6 some of my songs would play for 45sec-1min and then would stop, and jump to the next song. I read that this could be an issue after transferring to a new phone, so I wiped all music off my phone and reloaded it.Unfortunately the issue still persisted.
I then went to test in iTunes on my MBP and found I was having the same issue with the same songs. It's not happening on all songs, in fact it appears to be random. Some I've bought from iTunes store, some I've ripped from CDs, and they're both affected the same. Then even more confusing I went back to my iPhone 5s and iPad to test, and all the songs play correctly. So now it's just my iPhone 6 and my MBP that have the issue.
I'm running the most current version of OS X and iOS. This issue is most frustrating, and I'm hoping someone could shed some light on a possible solution, thanks in advance!

I have had the same problem with several songs purchased from iTunes over the past year. Usually I report them as a problem file at the store, but I have never gotten a reply. Tonight, I noticed one of my latest purchases doing that. If I move the position bar to later in the song, it immediately skips to the next song. I was afraid that maybe my files were getting corrupted, so I copied the file right out of iTunes and pasted it on my desktop. Then I double clicked on the desktop file and it played all the way through in iTunes.
Just for giggles, I copied and pasted the newly created file over the old one, and it still skips to the next song just as before.
I have seen one solution that I believe will work, which is to recreate the library. But I have years worth of playlists, playcounts, ratings, etc. that I don't want to lose. Please help!

HT1349 Songs stop halfway through and switch to the next song

In iTunes some of my songs stop a little more then halfway and then switch to the next song how can I stop this from doing that ?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy 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.

Ipod stopping halfway through a song and restarting

my 1st gen. ipod stops halfway through a song and restarts. but it doesn't do this with all songs, just some. i updated the songs from my ipod onto it again, then manually ejected it, but nothing is working..
HELP!!

Try reseting it by holding both Menu and Center buttons down untill the Apple Logo pops up(you my have to do this a couple times for it to work). Or you can restore its factory settings and put the songs back on the iPod. But if that doesen't work try calling this number Apple Disability Solutions (800) 767-2775 and see if you can get yourself further help.

Windows 7 - Downloads stopping halfway through

I recently downloaded windows 7 and it is running well on my computer. However, itunes will not complete downloads (I was testing with a video podcast) - they start and then stop halfway through, and give error 3259. I have run the connectivity diagnostic, checked my firewall, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and it still doesn't work. My anti virus program is AVG - could this be affecting the downloads? Is there anything else that I can do?

Very similar issue for me. I copied my Vista profile to my server and installed Windows 7 Pro. Reinstalled all apps, copied data from old profile back into new one. iTunes loaded with everything EXACTLY as it was before (right down to playcount on songs and everything). For several days, no problem downloading video podcasts. A few days ago, that changed. Out of the blue, it would disconnect me 50-80% of the way through the download and give me error 3259 (& 9006 once). I've read online how it's due to firewall settings, antivirus and old iTunes. I was running iTunes 9.0.1 and it would not permit me to update to 9.0.2 so I downloaded it and installed on my own. Still have the problem. The firewall whitelisted iTunes and I opened up recommended ports as well. No change. I'm using AVG free so it doesn't have a firewall. With Vista, I used McAfee but then I had Windows 7 working fine with AVG and allowing downloads until this sudden change.
The recommended fixes DO NOT work. Changing firewall settings changes nothing. The antivirus has no firewall and no settings for any kind of whitelisting of iTunes anyways. Updating iTunes changes nothing. I can still download the podcasts manually through Firefox or using my Mac Mini running OS X Server (10.5). Given how it worked at one time, nothing changed, then it suddenly stopped, I'm at a loss.
I did get two to download today but I changed nothing before they started and then the third in line to download failed.
I haven't been on Apple discussions lately but since it is a forum, my background is entirely IT. It's how I make my living (troubleshooting in general). It's possible I have overlooked something but given the recommended fixes out there so far and all the variations on them that I have tried, it is unlikely. The issue must be caused by something other than firewall settings, antivirus or iTunes version. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open. I'm getting tired of using Windows LiveSync to keep podcasts updated on this Windows 7 laptop.
Any help finding the actual fix for this problem is greatly appreciated.

Audio stops halfway through video recordings

I used my new iPhone a couple of times to record something last night and now when I'm playing back the videos the audio stops halfway through.
Can anyone tell me why this is and if there's any way of restoring all of the original sound?
Thanks

Glad to know someone else has experienced this bug. I had the audio cut out midway through a recording, and stay silent through a number of subsequent "takes". It came back the next day and I haven't had any trouble since. Still, I'd like to know how to avoid this problem, or if it's just a random bug.
I first thought I might have inadvertently pressed some button muting the microphone, but there really doesn't seem to be any control over the sound in the video recording function.

Delete the current copies and then download again (free) from your purchased history. If the problem persists contact iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history.

Bought a new album; Songs skip halfway through, how do i prevent this?

I recently spent 16 dollars on a new album ive been anticapating listening to. I get ready to hear it for the first time and all is going well until the first songs skips to the next song about halfway through play. I listen to the next song and it skips aswell. every song on the album stops playing about halfway through and skips to the next song, which basically results in me having no music. I tried moving the cursor (what ever you call it) to the later bits of the song/s but it will automatically skip and wont let me play it from their. What can i do to fix this?
P.s this occurs on my ipod AND Itunes.

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 yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

My ipod songs get halfway through song and then move onto next song automat

Hello,
I'm rather frustrated. Got ipod as gift at weekend and have downloaded a couple of songs from ITunes.
They play fine on my laptop, but when I play them on my ipod, the song gets halfway through and will then automatically skip onto next song... sometimes it only gets 16 sec's into song and then moves straight on...
Have restored back to factory settings and then put the songs back onto my ipod and they're still playing up... can anyone help me???

Hi Ab,
See this post for potential fixes:

Good luck,

Song stops midway through

Hi! Certain songs while being played on itunes stop halfway through and skip to the next song. the file is already an mp3 file and was not purchased through the itunes store. also, other songs from the same album are fine. any ideas?

SAME HERE!! iMac 800 MHz PPC G4 w/768MB RAM, OSX 10.4.11 and iTunes 8.0.2. Some tunes (not all) we've purchased and downloaded play partway through then stop and we go on to the next one in the list. Erg!
Here's what I've checked so far:
- start time
- stop time
- part of a gapless album
I've enabled and disabled all of those options and tried playback of the same song over and over with each variation. (I'm SO tired of that one song now!) No difference. In fact, exact same symptom, right down to the same measure and beat in the song each time it stops. What else is there to try?

I bought songs on itunes through my iphone. When I went to plug my iphone into my computer to sync, itunes asked me to restore. I backed my phone up, but now i cannot find the songs i purchased through my phone. How do i get back the songs?

I bought songs on itunes through my iphone not too long ago. When I went to plug my iphone into my computer to sync, itunes asked me to restore my phone. I backed my phone up, but now i cannot find the songs i purchased through my phone. I've looked for the songs in the itunes store, but it said that i had not purchased any of the songs.How do i get back the songs?

There is a backup plan after doing the Restore. Read this.

By "hard reset" you mean hold down the Home and power buttons until the iOS device restarts, correct?

Songs skip halfway through in iTunes and on iPhone

Howdy. I was recently forced to get a new laptop when my hard drive crapped out on me. Fortunately, my music was backed up on an external hard drive. Since I was at my five computer limit, I did have to de-authorize all computers from my account and then authorize the new one to play my purchased songs. However, I now find that some (not all) of the songs I purchased will skip after about 1:50. Specifically, I bought the 700+ song Bob Dylan collection when it was first offered; these songs seem to be the only ones affected.
I know other people have had similar problems. The reason I'm starting a new thread is because the songs sometimes play all the way through, depending where you're trying to play them. Let me explain:
iTunes 10.6: skips to next song after 1:50
iPhone 4S (latest iOS): skips to next song after 1:50
iPod shuffles (2nd and 4th generation): plays through
Since there are a lot of songs affected, I'm wondering if there's a cleaner solution than "delete and re-download ad infinitum". Any help would be appreciated.

mine has just started to do this today, have you had any luck fixing it?
