HT1567 trying to preview song but only plays for 5 seconds

When i preview a song it will only play for 5 seconds instead of the 1min/half it allows. I 've never had this problem before. I update the software, but it still will not allow me to listen to the song no more tham 5 seconds

I have had this problem for quite awhile.  Sometimes the preview plays all the way through, or not.  I had it in the previous version and now the new version.  There is no help from Apple/iTunes.  It seems odd that WE must continue to try and find the solution to THEIR errors without any comments or help from Apple.

    Either this needs to get fixed or i will request my money back because i will not work for my money while other lie about what i spend it on.

    Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

    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.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download 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 those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking some people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can 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.

  • HT2045 Got new song but only play half way and STOP!!!!

    Okay just got a new song from iTunes, but when  I playing it, the song goes half way and then stop. Someone can help me, if I try downloading it again do I need to pay again?

    - Delete it and redownload it following these instructions so you will not have to pay again.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - Also try a reset. nothing is lost.
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next would be to restoe from backup

  • Song downloaded from iTunes plays fine in iTunes, but only first 15 seconds will play on iPod then skips to next song?

    Songs that I download from iTunes play ok in iTunes. On iPod classic though, SOME (but not ALL) of these downloaded songs will only play for 15 seconds or so before it skips to the next song. It is random in that some songs off the same album will do this, but others not. Any ideas?

    Try this Hard Reset
    After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.
    Test the sound again.
    Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
    If these songs are in MP3 format, google and download MP3 Validator and run through songs in the library.
    Good Luck!

  • Captivate 4 Movies in PDF only plays for 5 sec on Macs

    I created a PDF document that has 3 Captivate 4 movies embedded.  The movies play just fine on Windows but only play for 5 seconds on macs.  Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, please let me know what the solution is.  I have searched on the Community Help and can't find anything related to this problem.  Thanks.

    Someone answered my question on the Acrobat forum.  I needed to upgrade to 9 and use the Flash Tool which solved the problem.
