I downloaded an album and every single song is cut off after about a minute and a half. I checked the Help information, but there isn't a button visible to download it again. How can I fix that?

I have a problem too - may be related to this. I downloaded 5 albums over the weekend, plus a few singles. Every one of them has at least 1 song that stops playing partway through, some as quickly as 5 seconds in. Looking at the file itself, the size seems right for a song of that length, and I got no errors during download, but out of the ~75 songs I purchased over the weekend, I have 10 (so far, still checking) that are incomplete

I am having problems with my Mac Book Pro Retina locking up after updating from Lion to Maverick. I was having no trouble until I did the upgrade, and now it is locking up, freezing after about 5 minutes, and getting hot. Any suggestions?

A while back I had an upgrade available to me. I had Lion when I bought this Pro. The upgrade is Maverick. After downloading and installing the upgrade, my computer started freezing while doing anything. I might not get this completely written before it freezes. The keyboard is getting hot, and I have to use the power button to turn it off. After it has sat for at least 10 minutes, I can turn it back on. I might be able to do some work for 5 minutes, or up to 30 minutes before it freezes again. Some of my programs are not working, either.
I would appreciate any suggestions anyone might have, or even go back to Lion, if I can figure out how to.
Thanks.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

I have a library of nearly 2000 songs and all of which were purchased/downloaded in their entirety. It seems that after one of the iTunes updates… many (not all, but plenty) of those songs were “cut off” after playing about 2/3 through them… I haven’t gone through the entire library to see which are complete and which were cut off, but hoped this is “known problem” and hopefully with a known “fix”… Make sense?
Please advise…

My ipod only goes to the apple screen and freezes then turns off after about a minute. Is this fixable?

Try a system reset. It's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

TS1713 My mac sometimes will not power up even though it is fully charged and no matter how many key's I touch will not bring it on. It comes on after about 10 minutes and I have to shut down about 6 windows before I can open up a browser.

My mac will not power up even though it is fully charged. It only happens occasionally and when I try to power up after about 10 minutes it comes to life but has 6 or 7 windows that I have to close in order to open up my browser.

It seems after I do a sync, some of my songs are cut off after a few seconds of playing. This has happened several times. What is the problem?

Every now and then (I think it is after I do a sync) my songs cut off after the first few seconds. I went back to itunes and check the song and now the song can't be found. Or, the song cuts of there also.............The songs played fine up until this point. This has happened several times in the past year.

Screen turns off after a few minutes and needs to be closed then opened

hi, as the title suggests my powerbook screen turns off after a few minutes before my screensaver is set to come on and when i come back and press a key or move the pad it wont start up so i need to close the powerbook then open it up again for it to activate. its not a huge problem but my programs which connect to the internet seem to lose their connection when i open it up again. is this normal? is there a setting i can change?
thanks

Is there a way to "disable" Standby, Suspend and Off just when watching movies (in fullscreen or not)? I want them to do what they usually do in all other cases.
Setting them to 0 in xorg.conf does the thing, but I need that functionality only when I'm wathing movies. Making a script that alters adjustments in xorg.conf isn't the best solution - you'd have to restart X every time you want to watch a movie .
Cheers,

AppleTV stops after about 10 minutes and I get the "spinning circle". I have re-set the computer's power setting to NEVER shut down, but no help.

My Apple TV stops playing after about 10 minutes. It will only work when iTunes is open, so I leave iTunes and and Home Sharing is on. Everything is fine for about 10+ minutes, then the music stops and I get the "spinning circle". I've set the computer's power settings to never shut down, thinking that it was stopping because the power went off, but it still stops. People over for T-giving soon. HELP!!

I figured it out.

Since loading Itunes update my Itunes takes about 3 to 4 minutes to load and then when it loads it freezes for about 3 minutes and then unfreezes. This happens with every restart. I've have deleted and reload four times but still get the same results. t

Question: I've have upadated to the latest Itunes software but since doing so I've have had nothing but problems and yes
I have unloaded and reloaded at least 4 times. Now when I try to open Itunes using the short cut on the desk top it takes about 4 minutes or longer for the Itunes to start and then it freezes for about another 2 to 3 mintues and then starts. This happen everytime I try to open Itunes now. I even deleted Itunes from my hard drive and put it on my SSD to see if it would work and still nothing. I've always been pretty good at sloving my problems. But this one has me stumped. Is there anyone who as had this problem that would be willing to help me out. Router25. P.S. It only happen with this one application of software. Everything else loads up fast. This comput is about 1-1/2 years old. Most people would love to have this computer. 9 out of 10. Please help me someone. I ready have a grey beard and it getting grayer.

Restore from backup. If the issue continues, restore as new.

Renaming every single song in itunes library after installing on new PC

I got a new latop and downloaded and installed the latest itunes on it. Switched my songs over via external hard drive. On my previous computer I spent one OCD filled weekend organizing every track with album, artist, genre etc. Well, when I got everything running on the new computer, it was the way it was pre- OCD weekend as if it had never happened.
Is there a way for me to change a setting, or redo the whole shebang without having to spend another obsessive compulsive filled weekend?

Are these songs in WAV format?
If so, WAV files have no tags to store inforrmation, All the info is in the iTunes library file.
Copy the entire /Music/iTUbes.folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer/
Open iTunes.
This is all you need to do.

Why is it that when I click on a song to play it takes about 5 minutes and doesn't even play the song I picked?

I got the new update yesterday for my iPad and it just isn't working right.

Did the original songs that do not appear on the car player play in the Music app on the iPod? Sometimes glitches happen and they do not. Also, If y ohave a 5G iPod/iOS 7, purchase songs will show with an cloud icon by them if they are not downloaded if Shall All is turned on in Settings>iTunes and App Store

I downloaded an album and every single song is cut off after about a minute and a half.
