How do I burn only a portion of a song onto a disc?

How do I burn only a portion of a song onto a disc?

Select the song, do a Get Info, Options, set the start and stop times to whatever part of the song you want. OK out of there. Add song to playlist, burn to a CD. Only the selected part of the song will be burned.
Be sure to reset the start and stop times if you want to be able to listen to the full track in iTunes.
Also, you can right click on the song with the start/stop times set, pick Convert To XXX (xxx will be whatever the import preferences are set for (MP3, AAC, etc.), and a new copy of the song will be created but only the portion between the start and stop times.

  • How do I use only a portion of a song in my iTunes in my iPhoto slideshow?

    I already tried making the song shorter in iTunes by using the start and stop options and it does indeed make the song shorter in iTunes, but when I choose the song within iPhoto, the slideshow uses the long version of the song. What do I need to do to just use like a minute of the song in the slideshow?

    The settings you use to play in iTunes do not get retained in other apps. What you can do is open Garage Band, drag the song from iTunes into a GB track, then edit the song as you like. You can even adjust the fade in/out exactly to the length and duration you want. When the song is trimmed, Share to iTunes, where it will become a separate song. Select that for your slideshow, or place it in an iTunes playlist and use the playlist for your slideshow.
    Regards.

    Use an audio editor such as Audacity to make a separate file of the part you want and  burn that to a CD.

    I downloaded a song from Itunes but it only downloaded a portion of the song onto my macbook, but when I go to my Iphone the whole song is there...how do I fix it on my computer?

    You could delete that partial track from your Mac's iTunes and then copy it over from your phone by connecting it and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases

    Turning off Home Sharing would seem the most logical step.

  • I purchase songs and only a portion of the song was down loaded?

    HELP - I purchase songs and only a portion of the song was down loaded?

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs over a number of days, I assume that there has been a problem with Apple's servers.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

  • I have added music from my CD library to iTunes but now my iPod will not sync.  Message says not enough free space.  How can I sync only a portion of my library to my 8Gb Nano?

    I have added music from my CD library to iTunes on my PC.  I now have too many songs in my iTunes and I have insufficient space in my 8 Gb Nano.  I am unable to sync my iPod now.  How can I get my iPod to sync?  I only want a portion of my songs on the Nano.

    Hi wisemra,
    First, make sure your iTunes does not attempt to sync automatically. Open iTunes, and select Preferences under the iTunes menu item:
    Then, once you have hooked up your device and selected it, you should see the device Profile pages to the right. Select the Music tab:
    Once you get to the Music detail screen, you will see the option to "Sync Music". You can then select "Sync Entire Music Library" or you can select "Sync Selected Playlists, Artists, Albums, Genres". Click on the second one. Then, below, you can select which of your music from the library you want on your device:
    Your will show a list of your music. Mine doesn't because I sync with an iTunes library on different computer, but once you have selected the options I have shown you, you will see the music listed. Just pick what you want on your device and then click "Sync" at the bottom.
    Cheers,

  • Burning only a portion of a CD track

    Is it possible to burn to a CD only a portion of a particular track? I hope so, because I can't figure it out. Thanks in advance. pah
    1Mac G5/20"   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   1.5 G/RAM; 2.1 Gig CPU

    You can do all steps in iTunes.
    First select the song in iTunes and 'Get Info'. Select the Options tab and set the start and stop times.
    Then choose 'Convert Selection to (your setting)' from the 'Advanced' menu in the menubar.
    A copy of the song will be made with only the portion you selected by start and stop times.
    Deselect the checkboxes with start and stop times from the original.
    You can't convert purchased music this way.
    Hope this helps.

  • ICloud plays only a portion of many songs... Why? How to fix?

    After purchasing iCloud, my MacPro started its sync to the cloud.  Once uploaded, I turned on iCloud on my iPhone 4, iPad (1), and MacBook Pro.
    On all these devices, many songs play approx 50% of the song and then stops...
    If I wait about 5 minutes, I can advance the timeline to about 3/4 of the way across the length of the song and press play.  The "dot" on the timeline will begin moving, but no audio will play.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    This is happening on 30-50% of the songs (5000+).
    By the way, the song plays in its entirity on my MacPro.

    Yeah for me the music on my 4s keeps stopping and I have to click to the next song sometimes keep clicking until a song plays........Why? they are not greyed out they are all there matched ....big glitch and not worth the wonderful Icloud experience I thought it was proposed to be. Everything where u want it? not for me . I'm back to plugging it into the mac and loading music the way I have been from the 1st ipod/itunes......Icloud is not  just does not work for me and with that being said I upgraded to Snow leaopard and then downloaded Lion ..just to have the service along with match......and am now experiencing major connection issues with the airport and 1tb Time capsul....Why release it if there are so many issues? I have been a hard core Apple guy for at least 15 years and now wondering if the path they have chose to include the masses is hurting their ability to release stable systems....oops there it goes again my time capsul shut down on its own and restarted my download which ironically erased the whole kitten caboodle. Yup ..they need a new slogan ...JUST WORKS! NOT!!!!!!

  • How do you use only a part of a song from itunes and add it to a movie project?

    After I've added video clips and photoes to a movie project, I can't figure out how to use only clips from itunes songs to play in specific parts of movie project...any ideas?

    The settings you use to play in iTunes do not get retained in other apps. What you can do is open Garage Band, drag the song from iTunes into a GB track, then edit the song as you like.

  • I've imported several CDs that are "collections", with songs by various artists.  Only a PORTION of the song info appears in iTunes, and, when a song is "clicked-on" to play it, a message appears that the "song could not be found".  Any ideas ?

    The CDs are imported into the "iTunes Media" folder, under "Compilations".   Each CD has a folder, with the name of the CD.  However, EACH SONG in the folder is assigned a sequential number as a prefix before the song's name.  For example "2-1 Sunshine of Your Love."  This prefix, I believe, prevents the song from being imported into the iTunes library.  The song's name appears in the iTunes library (with the number prefix), BUT no other song info (artist, CD name, time, etc.) shows in the iTunes library.   I am NOT designating these CD's as "complilations", but somehow, iTunes is arbitrarily assigning them to this "Compilations" folder, and then assigning sequential numbers to each song.    I am confused.  (My only remedy is to MANUALLY remove the prefix number from each song in the CD folder, within the COMPILATIONS folder, then "re-import" it into iTunes.  Cumbersome.)    Thanks in advance for any opinion, tips or guidance.

    The numeric prefixes in filenames are probably the optional disc number, followed by the track number. iTunes will pick up the Compilation flag from the Gracenote CDDB database if you ripped the tracks with iTunes, or the flag may have been set earlier if these are existing tracks you have imported into a new library.  The iTunes naming convention is <Artist>\<Album>\[<D#>-]<T##> <Name>.<Ext> where Album Artist is used instead of Artist if not blank, and Compliations is used instead of Artist when Part of a compilation is true. Empty Artist or Album values are replaced with Unknown Artist or Unknown Album respectively. With Windows, file and folder names are limited to 40 characters. If more than one file is added with the same details subsequent tracks get suffixes to separate them.
    If iTunes can't find a file that usually means that it has been moved after it was added to the library. Select a single broken track and press CTRL+I to Get Info. Look on the summary tab at the location that iTunes expects to find the file. Where is it really? Post back both paths and I might be able to figure out what has happened, and suggest a fix.

  • Skipping songs and only letting me put 300 songs onto my 4GB nano

    On my 2nd generation nano ipod, it will play a couple songs and then skip a lot. Certain songs will skip and certain songs will play. any suggestions?
    My other problem is it will only let me hold about 300 songs on my 4GB nano. Right now i have 326 songs and it says " 2.12 GB required, 47.58 MB remaining" I'v had his ipod for about 2 years.

    While I think the first may be related to the second, I will pass on it.
    The song count can vary widely depending on the format and quality of encoding. What are your songs encoded as, and what bitrate/quality are you using?
    Are all your songs encoded the same? Easy way to check that is to enable the "kind" column (right click on the column headings) in your main iTunes display then sort by that column. Quality/bitrate can be seen using the "bit rate" one.

  • How do I Sync All 5,000 of my songs onto my iPod 5th Generation without no problems at all, Most of my songs have the Album Artworks, some are ACC converted but after the "Changes Are Applied", it will say - Songs were not synced. File wasn't convert

    I Am having a problem with syncing 5,000+ songs onto my IPod 5th Generation. Everytime I sync, some songs will either go away or ALL of them will come off my iPod. I have iTunes 12 for Windows, and it has a slow syncing process and it will take days for songs to get on the iPod. It will even say that any of the songs "we're not synced to my iPod because the file wasn't converted..
    I Need help please, I would appreciate it.

    Hey Bryce,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like some songs aren’t being synced to your iPod touch because they aren’t in a compatible format. Can you play those tracks in iTunes? Try selecting the tracks that won’t sync and creating a new version of them with iTunes as shown in the article below.
