I touch cutting off songs before they end

I have seen this problem listed on the other I pods, but have not yet found any fix for this on I touch.
Any sugestions?

I've had this problem, check how long the track is, because for some reason iTunes had set the lenght of the track (Dani California) to something like 30 seconds. It may not be that, but it's worth a look. If not restore your iPod, and if that fails give Apple a ring, however the number of escapes me!

  • My iPod Touch (iOS 6.1.3) keeps cutting off songs before they finish.

    My iPod keeps cutting off songs before they finish. There doesn't seem to be a pattern - it only happens to some songs. It also doesn't cut them all off with the same amount of time remaining. The songs work perfectly when I play them back on iTunes on my laptop.
    I've tried removing and reloading all the music as well as restoring my iPod to its factory settings.
    Please help... it's driving me mad!!

    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 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.

  • My iTunes randomly cuts off songs at the end. I've tried to create a new library and reimport my old library, but to no avail. Can anyone help? :)?

    Hi, I am using a MacBook Pro, and downloaded the new iTunes update. I have OS X Lion 10.7.4. It all of sudden is randomly cutting off some songs before the very end of the song. I've tried to read past posts and create new libraries and re-import the old one, but it doesn't seem to help. It is not all of my purchased songs, nor is it all of my downloaded from CD songs, it's just a particularly random set of songs (I haven't checked them all, but it happens every 5 songs or so when I play the whole library on shuffle). This never happened to me before with other versions of iTunes, and when I called the support line the guy says he has never heard of this problem before... ! 
    I have 3000 songs, so I don't want to manually bring each one in again. I am also not super technologically brilliant, so if you have had this problem too and have a simple answer, please help !!!

    I have a similar problem with Itunes - the funny thing is it only does it on my Mac and not my PC running Windows 7 - seems strange the Apple software runs better on a Windows computer.  There are other posts about this here on the forums that have been running for two years with no solution - and I was just about to buy a new Ipod - oh well.

  • ITunes 7 Cutting Off Songs

    I'm sorry if there is a similar topic already existing, but it seems that all of the songs in my library (at least the ones that I've tested) are being cut off well before they are finished since I installed the new iTunes 7 (and the new Quicktime). Most songs seem to cut out at the 4 minute mark, a major problem with my songs that are 10 minutes or more. Even songs that are around 4 minutes cut off early; "Billie Jean" cut out at 3:10 even though the song is supposed to go 4:54.
    Some of the other threads have suggested recoding the songs, but when I attempt to do that, it only codes the shortened version. So, when I try to convert my 25 minute song, the converted version only includes that 4 minute segment.
    Has anyone had similar problems and been able to come up with solutions?

    None of those settings have been changed.  The crossfade is not checked.  Moreover, the amount cut off on different songs varies (whereas I understand that crossfade would affect all song in the same way).
    I am not sure what you mean by song - options.  I did not change anything.

  • HT4993 My songs cut off before they end on my iphone.

    My songs cut off before they end on my iphone.

    Same problem. I have submitted feedback. It appears that a significant number of people are experiencing the same problem and have been for months - yet, no official response of correction from Apple. This problem is also affecting the 'Match' product they're trying to sell. I would recommend waiting until this problem is fixed before signing up for Match.

  • Itunes 10.6.3 cuts off songs

    I re-installed my Music according to Apple's instructions, but that didn't resolve the problem. Some songs are getting cut off at around the 3:00 mark, and when they do, iTunes doesn't proceed to the next song. I'm operating Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 on a brand new iMac and have never had this problem before. Has Apple fixed this, and if not, what is the fix?

    Not sure if this is what you did or not but it worked for me.   I am running iTunes 10.6.3.25.  I deleted the cut off songs from both my ipod and iTunes on my computer (choosing to move them to the trash bin and eliminate completely).  Afterwards, I re-downloaded them from the cloud by accessing my previously purchased items in the iTunes store. For what it's worth, I had to go through this process twice before it actually worked.

  • Ipod cutting off songs. itunes plays songs just fine. not using "match."

    ipod cutting off songs. itunes plays songs just fine. not using "match."
    reformatted ipod, resynced, same problem.
    help!

    I have also had the same problem...
    The songs appear to be random, and when I plug my iPod into the computer it is fixed. Sure enough, a monthish later, it happens again.
    When my songs get cut off, they are stopped exactly half-way through. Apparently, the iPod thinks that is how long they are, because it plays the time that it shows (the total time only goes to helf of what it normally is).
    This does not seem to be a matter of old software, as I am always up-to-date on iPod software, and this has been happening to me with version 1.4.1
    I have not Restored my iPod, but apparently that will not help (according to the other posts).
    I hope somebody can answer this (although I've posted it twice before with no luck, so...)

  • In random mode i tunes stops some songs before they are finished.  How do I fix that?

    In random mode, itunes stops some songs before they are finished.  How do I change the ending point of a song in itunes?

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    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 items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • Music player cuts off songs prematurely

    I have an iPhone 4S running 7.0.3. Ever since upgrading from 6.x to 7.x, the music player will cut off songs prematurely (approx 45-60 seconds too soon). I've reset the phone, re-sync'd the music, etc. It happens on 1/4-1/3 of my music, and I'm at a loss as to what to do.
    Any suggestions?

    I could be wrong but isn't there a stop at property on the songs? I'm not in front of my itunes right now to check. I seem to remember that but apple could have taken that property away.
    As far as os7, the ipod app is extremely buggy! It crashes on me at least 4 times a day. Sometimes songs just stop for no reason. It also gets out of sync, when I unlock my phone there are times its 5 minutes behind where the song actually is.

  • Songs cut 25 sec before the end - Time cursor issues

    Hello !
    As all for you, I've just downloaded itunes 7. No special problem until today, where I discovered two anoying (but not terrible) bugs:
    1) The time cursor when playing a song is unstable. If I want to listen to a song from 2'22 minutes, i bring the cursor with the mouse at 2'22 to play. But if I clip and drag the cursor, the cursor simply keeps going backwards in time until it reaches the song starting point. I've tried it with the different views... Have you noticed it too?
    2) A few of my songs are cut 25 or 30 before the end. If I bring the time cursor over the last 30 seconds of these songs, it directly goes to the next song (or even the song after the next one). This is quite annoying. I've to mention that all my song aren't gapless. I turned the fade option off. But it keeps cutting these 15-20 songs end. Does somebody have an idea about that issue??
    Thank you
    Regards, Jonathan

    Delete it, click here, and follow the instructions.

  • IPod cuts song before the end then skips to the song

    Over the last few months my 2nd generation iPod (bought March 2006) has started cut songs/tracks before the end, usually with about a minute or so to run, then skips to the next track.  However this fault is intermittent and appears to be random as there is no pattern to it, eg. every 2nd or 3rd track. 

    In iTunes, there is a feature which allows you to trim your songs. This feature simply sets a different start and finish time on the song. If you sync the song to your ipod, then it will appear to you that the song has been cut.

  • IPod cutting off songs/iTunes not recognizing iPod correctly

    Hi,
    I have a second generation nano using a PC with Vista operating system, and using the latest iTunes software (7.6.1.9). I have been noticing that more and more of my songs on the iPod have been cutting off, either a few seconds into the song, near the end, etc, but are just fine when played through iTunes from my hard drive. At first it was just a couple of songs, but then more and more started to cut off. Then, the iTunes started telling me that it wasn't able to read my iPod correctly and that I should restore it to original settings. I did that a few times and kept reloading the songs, but the problem still occurs seems to be getting worse. Tonight when I plugged the iPod in, iTunes said that it "detected an iPod but couldn't identify it. Unplug it and plug back in." I did, and it read it, but that particular problem also seems to be getting worse and I'm afraid soon it won't be able to detect the iPod at all (and this latest message was after I updated with the iTunes latest version). It seems like the actual iPod software is corrupted, and that its software needs to be re-installed, not the iTunes. Am I wrong in that assessment? How would I go about doing that? I can't seem to find any clear instructions and I don't see many people reporting this problem.
    Thanks,
    Robyn

  • Premium Cutting Off Songs

    I am trying out Premium on a trial offer, and frankly am unimpressed.
    I selected a mix of 20 or so songs > added them to a playlist > enabled hardware acceleration > made them available off line.
    Every third song or so gets cut off around 30 seconds to the end of the track and skips to the next song. It is not specific to any song.
    Reviewing the messages boards I found a thread stating a conflict with ITunes. So I uninstalled it completely, but the problem persists.
    Am I alone in this issue? Most issues I have found on the message boards are related to skipping like a scratched CD or due to ads.
    Any fixes?
     

    From the help site:

  • IPod Cutting off songs

    There are a handful of songs that cut off part way through when playing on my IPod. They cut off in the same spot every time, but they play fine on my computer. I have tried restoring & reloading the IPod, and it just starts happening with different songs after.
    Any ideas?

  • ITunes Library cutting off songs

    I posted this in another topic, but I'm not sure if it belongs here or there...
    All of a sudden, my itunes library is blending songs when I play them in order. When each song has 4 seconds left, the next song on the list starts playing, as if a DJ's mixing them. It's annoying, because it cuts off the end of songs, and I don't know how it will affect the burning of CDs.
    Anyone know why it's suddenly doing this, and how I can make it stop?

    It looks as if you have Crossfade playback: switched on.
    You can find this setting in Preferences>Playback.
    hope this helps.
