Hey so my song cuts off after 40 seconds and goes to the next song in my playlist how do i fix this?

I had downloaded the new Mac Miller CD after it popped up that I had the option to download it when I opened up Itunes because I had pre-ordered it now some of the songs cut after 40seconds. Any help is appreciated.

From your description you are looking at the song from iTunes as it exists on your iDevice.  The functionality you are referring to applies when selecting the song in your library, in which case you get the full menu of options like this:
Depending on other settings, you may be able to add the song to a playlist on your device from those listed at the top of the submenu when you select Add to Playlist.  The Show in Playlist option that you refer to doesn't modify anything - it just lists and allows you to select any other playlists that contain the same song.
Likewise, the options available for creating new playlists from the "mini menu" at the top left of the screen apply only if you have your library selected, not your device.  In the latter case you will see this:
The same operation when your library is selected shows the full range of available options:
I find the most effective approach to be to create and modify playlists within iTunes - as part of the library - and then sync to iDevices, rather than trying to modify any device content directly.

  • I'm having an issue with songs cutting off before finishing and jumping to the next one. Even on my old ipod where there were never any problems before. They play fine on my computer? how can I fix this without spending a fortune replacing all these songs

    I got this new Ipod for christmas,& I started importing songs before it was fully charged. I thought thast caused the problem till I added new songs to the old one. Then it started doing the same thing. The old one never had this problem. Even one of the new songs I just bought stops 15 seconds in then jumps to the next song. I can't afford to replace them all.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    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. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
      - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • A song is listed as being 4:17 seconds but stops after 35 seconds and moves onto the next song, this happens in iTunes and on my iPod Touch 4th gen, both are recently updated to the latest software and the album was purchased today.

    This is bugging me quite a bit, I bought an album today and it lists the song as being 4 mins 17 seconds. However, as I mentioned, on both platforms it stops at around 35 seconds and flicks onto the next song in the case of iTunes or just stops playing audio for my iPod Touch 4th gen. It is a full song on Youtube and everywhere else I seem to look, so is this likely to be a software issue with iTunes/iOS or the song itself perhaps?
    Many thanks to any who can help!

    That suggests the track is damaged.
    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    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 item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • HT203167 I've downloaded the Now Christmas album, all but 1 song has been downloaded and put in my library.  The list says it's there but when I go to play it, iTunes skips past it and goes to the next song.  I have downloaded lastest version of iTunes.

    I have purchased and downloaded the Now Christmas album to my iTunes libary and all but 1 song have been purchased.  The song appears in my library but when I go to play it iTunes skips past it and goes to the next song.  It wouldn't normally bother me but its the only song my son wants to hear all the time (hopefully the heart strings will be pulled here and someone will reply before Christmas to help me!)  I've loaded the last verison of iTunes.

    Will the media file play with Quicktime Player? If it will then it's an iTunes issue. If it won't then you need to delete the file and download it a second time.

  • HT1711 I just recently downloaded an entire album with 50 songs and several of them stop at about 15 seconds and skip to the next song. What is wrong and how can i fix it?

    Hi, I need help with the title of this discussion. The fact that several of my songs stop at around 15 seconds and just skip to the next song when i just purchased them.

    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.

  • Some of my songs on my iTunes are stopping towards the end and going to the next song. It won't play those specific songs the entire way through.

    I recently bought a MacBook Pro and transfered my entire library to my new laptop. Itunes was working fine until I started to notice that certain songs won't play the entire way through. It'll stop at like 1:43 or another random time and skip right to the next song. I know I definitely bought some of these songs off of iTunes, and I really don't want to repurchase them. I don' understand why this would even be happening because they played fine on my old computer! Is there any way I can get them to play all the way through again!?

  • My Apple TV seems to be stopping in the middle of songs and going to the next song

    Any suggestions on why my Apple TV would play 10 or 15 seconds of a song and then shift to the next song? It doesn't occur on every song, but very randomly.

    You can't do much else besides pull the plug. If it causes further problems you should be able to restore as below:
    Get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    On the other hand you may be able to simply start the update again. If however the update continues to fail, you should try the restore routine above.

  • HT1849 I bought a song(which is 5 1/2 minutes long), but it stops playing after 15 seconds and moves onto the next song. I bought this song in a set with 5 other songs, all of which play for full time. Is there anyway to fix this?

    So yeah, pretty much what the title says... Is there anyway to fix it? Like I said, ALL of the other songs play for full time. All but that one song.

  • When I connect my iPod to the computer, it connects for only about 5 seconds and then disconnects on its own before synching. How do I fix this?

    I had my iTunes and library on my home computer.  The computer crapped out along with the hard drive.  I have my library on my iPod and want to put it on my new computer, but any time I connect the iPod to my home computer (and work computer for that matter), it only connects for about 5 seconds and then disconnects on its own.  I go to look at the iPod as a hard drive and I have nothing but empty folders (contacts, calendar, recordings and something else), but nothing is in them.
    1) How do I get my iPod to connect to my computer?
    2) How do I get my iPod to connect to iTunes?
    3) Why don't my music files on my iPod show up on my computer?
    I have uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled iTunes.  I have done the "trick" of hitting the 'Menu and Center' buttons at the same time unitl the Apple icon appears.  I have tried going into Disk Mode.  I don't know what to do now.  The word "Resetting" scares me because this is where I have my 150 GB of music stored and I'd rather not have to upload my CD's again.............will resetting affect that?  The word "Restore" is even scarier!!!
    Help!

    i am using a cable connector like this one.. it works with audio when pluged into a stereo but not a TV.i am trying to display video from ipod, also from other apps.. i also want to know why it does not work.
    i use the video app on the iPod and video stored on other aps.
