Help with song not playing properly?

Hey guys,
I have an iPod touch and I transferring a song called Low by Flo Rida and when I play it on my iPod, at about the 20 second mark. It works fine in iTunes though. I even downloaded a different version of the song and the same thing happened at the same exact time. Then, I tried to restore my iPod and it still did not work. I do not know why and it is becoming very frustrating. Please Help... Thanks

Did you rip it with iTunes? At what bitrate?
Sorry but when you said you downloaded it I assumed (bad idea) it was from the iTunes Store, not ripped.

  • In my shuffle 4g the songs not playing properly most of the times it gives some kind of sound and stop playing songs.

    First, make sure the headphones plug is completely pushed into the headphones jack.  Because the jack serves multiple functions, the fit may be tighter than expected (especially if you have the Apple EarPods).
    Also, try using the headphones with another device, to rule out bad headphones.  Or try another set of (known working) headphones with the shuffle.
    Are you using older headphones that have remote control buttons?  Not the latest EarPods and not the immediately previous version of white Apple earbuds.  Or non-Apple headphones with remote control buttons.  It's possible they are not compatible and interfering with the shuffle's operation.  Any standard headphones (with no buttons) should work.
    If that does not help, you can try doing a Restore on the shuffle in iTunes.  The Restore button is on the shuffle's Summary screen in iTunes.  This will erase the shuffle, reinstall its software, and set it to defaut settings.  If a software (or settings) problem on the shuffle is the cause, the Restore should fix it.
    Otherwise, if the Restore does not help, it may be a hardware problem.  If it has been less than one year since purchase, it is under warranty.

  • Songs not playing properly on 3rd gen iPod (click wheel)

    I have a large amount of songs on my iTunes and iPod, and I often buy new music (from sources other than iTunes) to add to me collection. After updating my iPod last night to add a new album that I purchased, I noticed today that certain songs on my iPod would not play properly. When they come up in the cue or are selected to play manually, they appear on the screen, stay at "0:00 elapsed" for a second or two, then the iPod simply switches to the next cued song, as if this song has come to an end. If it's the only song in the cue, the iPod reverts to the general Menu screen.
    I checked my iTunes to see that the songs were still in my library and that I did not move or delete the source. None of the affected songs had the "This song cannot be found" exclamation point next to them, and they all played fine on my computer through iTunes, but they simply wouldn't work on the iPod. I updated my iPod tonight in hopes that the mistake would correct itself, but nothing's happened.
    Since this is a rare problem, I haven't been able to find any FAQs or solutions regarding it. I hope someone has the answer.
    Thanks for your time.

    I have the exact same thing happening. I just bought the new Foo Fighters album, the songs play on iTunes, but will not play on my iPod. I have updated my iTunes and iPod to try to get it to play with no success. With the iPod in the sourcelist, I can play the songs from the iPod music list, but not once the iPod is undocked from my PC the song titles come up for a brief second then skip to the next song on the album without ever playing any audio. I even tried to delete the album and reload it. Never had this happen with any other songs, artists, etc.

  • Need help with syncing/not playing songs

    when i plug in my ipod to the computer, the computer recognizes the ipod and says that it syncs all my music, after unplugging it, i still have all my old music on it but none of the new songs i wanted. also none of the songs play. the song title only shows, and after showing it for about a second skips to the next song title and so on not playing anything? any ideas on what the problem could be or how to fix it??

    OK so it would appear that it is not connecting to the computer at all yet.
    Is the connector of the cable FULLY seated into the iPod? When you push the plug in it goes in almost all the way in then stops and you then have to give it a pretty firm push to snap it in the rest of the way. A lot of people do not realize it goes in further.
    When fully seated, the barrel of the connector should be completely in the iPod with the white plastic of the connector butting up against the body of the shuffle.

  • IPod Video problem with songs not playing

    I received a 30GB iPod video for christmas today and accidently made a mistake while configuring it. Since I had an old iPod I figured that i wouldn't have to insert the enclosed CD and therefore I connected my iPod to my computer. The iPod icon never came up on my desktop so, left with no other choice i had to unplug it with the dreaded "do not disconnect" on the screen. Now, I can put songs on the iPod but it won't play them. The time bar at the bottom of the iPod screen simply sits at :00 as long as i leave the iPod on. HELP!!

  • Please Help with Shuffle not playing Podcasts in Playlist order

    Hi wanted to find out if others are going thru the same thing concerning PODCASTS. When I download a podcast and I put it into a playlist the podcasts should be able to be played in a sequential order as long as the number column is "clicked" so it plays 1,2,3 and so on. Well thats not happening....UGHHH when I sync my 2G shuffle now after 7.2 upgrade it decides it wants to put an episode of one type of podcast then another episode from another podcasts.. as if it is in random mode... But asure you I have the random/shuffle turned off both on the itunes and the shuffle itself. and everytime I go to sync it I can see the little circle updates syncing out of order and the sync window shows them being copied out of order... And so it syncs it to the order it comes up in the window. I cant get it to stop doing this. I have even tried unistalling 7.2 and quicktime and downgrading to 7.1.1.5 and it still is doing the same thing. Anybody please help this is very irritating... Thanks for your time....

    I am trying to auto sort podcasts in a smart playlist.
    Click in tethe h very first column and drag the podcasts in the order you want.
    Right click on the playlist name and *Copy to play order*.

  • Can anyone help with Terminal not working properly on 2013 (late) mac pro?

    New 2013 (late) mac pro. 10.9.2 osx
    Using Terminal utility and giving "cat" command, I get a return message of "file or directory not found" even though the files are right there. This is a little procedure I have performed with older mac pro and laptops (also Mavericks) and never had a problem.

    Thank you for posting Linc. I worked it out, it is a case of user error.

  • Hello, do you know that when you play a song skips or returns and does not play properly?

  • TS1424 I downloaded a song that I purchased from the ITunes store, but the song does not play properly.  How can I re-download the same song without having to purchase it a second time?

    I downloaded a song that I purchased from the ITunes store, but the song does not play properly.  How can I re-download the same song without having to purchase it a second time?

    I could not find an option to "report a problem".
    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 item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • Upgraded to IOS5, now music doesnt work right, displayed song not playing, plays 3,4 songs then stops although is appears to be playing. Help

    upgraded to IOS5, now music not working right. displayed song not playing, plays 4,5 songs and stops although it appears that it is playing. Cycled pwr,didn't work. tried resyncing, same thing.Help?

    I have an iPhone 4 and ever since I upgraded to iOS5 i've got the same problem. Apple need to release a patch as there's no way of fixing this unless we downgrade our phones back to iOS4 which would just suck!
    I often shut the music app down and start again but even then the artwork doesn't match the song playing and will only play a few songs. It's frustrating when you're driving or going for a run, having to pull over or stop and sort it out.
    We'll have to wait for Apple to bring out a patch unfortunately.

  • Youtube videos do not play properly

    I appreciate any suggestions with this problem. I have a Mac G4 laptop (PowerPC) running OS 10.4
    Most web videos do not play properly on my computer, especially if they use Adobe Flash Player. (QuickTime videos play fine.)
    I have had my internet connections checked by my provider, and the speed is very good, and the configuration is OK, so they do not understand why I am having trouble. When I try to play YouTube videos, I get a slideshow, with a new frame every 2 or 3 seconds. I have tried using my computer on my friend's internet connection, and it has the same problem. My friend can watch the same YouTube video perfectly well on his own computer, even though his download speed is much slower than mine.
    I have already tried the following fixes several times:
    complete uninstall of old versions of Flash Player
    reinstall of the latest version of Flash Player. (My computer does recognize that the player is there, as I said, it just plays the video as a slideshow.)
    Repairing permissions and restarting
    resetting Safari, manually clearing cache, cookies, etc. (Although I also have the same problem in Firefox)
    Downgrading to Flash Player 9
    Trashing QuickTime Plugin.webplugin
    Trying to trash all DivX files (I don't have any, it turns out)
    making sure audio midi settings are for 44.1
    trashing the Macromedia preferences folder
    None of these things have helped me. Thank you in advance for any other ideas of things to try.

    Rogerskth,
    Sorry, I wasn't clear. My computer NEVER played flash videos properly, with any version of Flash. Considering that Flash is maxxing out my CPU power (as measured by the Activity Meter) I suppose that slow CPU speed really IS the cause of my problem. Since you have a faster computer, and your computer used to play the videos OK, it seems likely that your problem is SOME OTHER mysterious problem.
    Bungee33,
    You might be pleased to know that in English we have the same expression as the German which you quoted
    "we in Germany say, that a horse given as a present must not be critizised  by judging the teeth in the mouth of the animal"
    In English, we say "don't look a gift horse in the mouth." 

  • HT1657 I downloaded a film for rental from itunes and it will not play properly,why?

    I rented a film last evening The book of Kells and it will not play properly.  My computer has more than enough memory or whatever it needs and I am using an account I have used in the past with success.  The films starts, then stops, then speeds ahead like it is not successfully loaded.  Any suggestions?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Where did you download it to and is it a purchase or rental.

  • Videos not playing properly

    Videos recorded in iphone 6 when stored in Z10 are not playing properly. May be because video resolution or settings differ. But this shouldn't be a problem. If all the video formats and resolutions are supported why is it the case. I tried videos of. Mp4 and. Mov formats. Both couldn't be viewed properly. Kindly fix the video application in bb10. Its very annoying. Other videos work fine but videos recorded in other phones specifically iphone doesnt work.

    This problem is posted by other but their problem are waste with excuses and it happens every time

  • Songs not playing in iTunes 7

    Since I downloaded the new iTunes 7, I cannot play any songs in my library, or on disc. I could with the old version. Does anyone know what is different about version 7 which could be creating this problem?

    Its working!!! I did everything in the "frequently asked questions" reply re songs not playing - nothing seemed to work until I restarted my computer. Now its fine.

  • Songs not played the whole way through

    On several of my song on my ipod, it will start to play the song just fine. After a while, the song will stop, the time left in the song will be 1 second and I have a really hard time to get it to start playing it again. I have tried lot of different methods from restarting the ipod to restoring the ipod. Does anyone else have this problem or am i the only one?

    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.
