How do I play a 30 second clip of a song?

I am doing a school presentation, and I can only play a 30 second clip of a certain song from iTunes. How can I play just the 30 seconds without having to watch the clock and pressing stop?
Thanks!

I just e-mailed this to you in response to your message to me...
but here it is for anyone else:
Try adding a build out on the audio clip and set it with a 30 second delay. You set the delay by hitting the More Options button on the Build Inspector.
I just tested it with a song with a 10 second delay and it worked fine for me.

Every now and then I get about a half second clip of another song

Every now and then I get about a half second clip of another song at the end of a song. If you immediately go back and play the same again, you get the same little burp at the end. But if you play three or four songs and then go back, the little burp is not there. I did a restore on the ipod, and I am still getting the little burps. It only happens maybe once out of every 10 songs played.
Files are MP3's which play fine on the PC in WMP and itunes, and on Dell DJ15, Zune and Sansa MP3 players. Some of the MP3s were ripped from CD using MusicMatch, some recorded off old lps using Creative Go!, and some downloaded so I don't think it is an issue with the MP3s themselves. Since I use several different players, I don't want to maintain a separate AAC library just for the ipod.
Usually the burst is so short that you can't even tell who the artist was, but when I have recognized it was always something very close alphabetically - at the end of a Cream song I got a little Creed, at the end of a Bad Company song I got a little Bachman-Turner Overdrive, at the end of a Led Zeppelin track I got a little Linkin Park.

Does this help?

Using Windows, the only answer would seem to be to re-encode them using iTunes.

How can i play a whole album rather than one song at a time

I have just purchased a ipod Nano 6th generation to use whilst cycling. I've tried it out indoors and it only seems to play one song at a time I would like to listen to an album or play list without stopping. how do I do this??????

Does this involve iPhoto in some way?

In New iTunes how do I play a whole album - stops after first song

In iTunes 11.0.1 (12) I select Music in upper left of window, select Albums, click on an album, click on > to play and get the first song and then it stops.

Make sure Preferences, General, View (Edit > Preferences on PC) "Show list checkboxes" isunchecked.
Albums will then play normally then by just clicking them in Songs or Albums views.

I downloaded a tv episode from app store via my ipad. it shows up on my ipad but only the 20 second clip

i wanted to buy an episode of a tv show. i fired up my ipad 2 and it dowloaded and it was paid for, but I go into my itunes or "music" applet and it is there, and even has a greyed out box that says "downloaded" BUT it will on;y play the 20 second clip. . .
I was going to try downloading it again, but I don't think I can.
I was going to buy another episode, but did not want to end up with the same situation. . .
I feel confident it is user error, I just don't know where erred. . .

i must be an idiot. I dont see a video app per se? is it within the itunes application or is there an "ivideo" type of app that comes with an Ipad or download one? I know I downloaded the whole episode, (at least they charged me for it as well it took a bit for it to come down). . .
thanks for the guidance with such a simple matter

How to only use a small clip of a song in imovie

how do I only use a small clip of a song in imovie?

there's two sorts of applying audio to an iMovie Project:
• as general 'background'
• or as 'clip'
have a look here:
I dragged the audio ONTO some existing video-clip in my Project => the new audio appears as a green bar - which indicates an audio-clip. Such an audio-clip you can shorten, cut, move, stack, copy/paste as any other clip in iMovie ...

When I create a new project in iMovie and drop clips into it, it plays the first one and then quits right near the end of the second clip. I have re-started my computer, tried a new project etc, and no luck, does anyone know how to fix this issue?

This is a part of the larger MacBook Pro connectivity issue. There are several related threads dealing with the MBP's networking problems. If your unit is suffering from this type of difficulty, good luck ... (or a long ethernet cable)
(PS Everybody please make noise on this one so apple comes up with a solution.)

IPad - with movie clips - how can I play more than one at a time?

iPad2. I post short movie clips via iTunes to the Photo catagory. I can play each of these clips by selecting the clip and pressing the start arrow, only the selected clip will play. How can I select a group of movie clips and have them play with only one selection. Like a "slide show" but for movie clips???

More than one contacts at a time

I was making a movie on iMovie, and was trying to use the green screen to make a split screen. I pressed on the green screen button, but the second clip didn't play next to the first, and only the audio played.

How to stop , play nested movie clips....

Hi all,
I'm calling a swf file in a container_mc, which is in
another swf file(Interface), by loadMovie() method. The Major
problem I've stucked with is that in the interface I'm having a
Play/Pause Button, which is not stopping the nested movieclips of
the external swf file which is loaded in the container_mc
movieclip.
The other major issue is that I'm not able to add a
progressbar(sliderbar) which runs according to the animation, to
this interface. Please help ASAP

I have a similiar situation however the container_mc has me
puzzled, I'm not sure what that is - perhaps you can answer my
question:
I have a master swf called index.swf. The index.swf has a
main tool bar of buttons which load frames; each frame is named to
coincide with the main bar button (i.e. genInfo, setup,
mainentance, etc). This works perfectly. My problem is with Movie
Clips.
Each frame has a sidebar which loads external swfs (i.e.
genInfo.swf) - each external swf is made up of a series of Movie
Clips which run in succession along the timeline; each Movie Clip
belongs within its own frame (i.e. MCseg1 is in frame seg1; MCseg2
is in frame seg2, etc).
I need to pause and play each individual Movie Clip at will;
I have built two buttons (pauseBtn and playBtn) into a Movie Clip
called MCpausePlay. The first frame of MCpausePlay contains the
pauseBtn; this frame is coded with the global "stop();" In order to
move to frame(2) which contains the playBtn, the pauseBtn is coded
with -
on(release) {
gotoAndPlay(2);
The playBtn is coded:
on(release) {
gotoAndPlay(1);
When clicked, the MCpausePlay moves from pause to play.
That's all I have been able to get this to do.
How do I code MCpausePlay to pause and then play each
individual Movie Clip? (How do I get a Movie Clip to control other
Movie Clips?). Should I code the Movie Clip, the frames within the
Movie Clip, or each individual button within the Movie Clip? And,
does this MCpausePlay belong on the Index.swf file, or should it be
on each external swf? Or perhaps built in to every Movie Clip? I
have tried all and have not had any success.

How do you change the 4 seconds preset duration when selecting clips?

When you select piece of clip in an event, how do you change the 4 seconds preset duration?

Hi
in iMovie'11 (as I don't have any iMovie'13 (v10)) and You note that You also use iM11
Go up to the top row Menu and select "Setings" (Inställningar)
and here select Browser (Bläddrare)
and at bottom of this You got three options
and can select ALL or up to 10 seconds
I use click + alt (option-key) to select all of the Clip in Events - then fine tune it in my project.
Good Luck
Yours Bengt W

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.

HT1725 the song I just purchased only plays for a second. How do I fix this?

The Song I just purchased only plays for a second. 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 it from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links 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 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 the Store > View Account menu option 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 that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking them to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTune) - if it does that to you then 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.
