ITune radio stations don't play

On my Mac many of the listed radio stations don't have a program playing. Is there a reason why?

I added a dozen radio stations to a playlist last week. They worked fine for a few days. I tried today and they won't play. Stations in Radio Library play fine, and if I add the same station to my playlist, that one will play fine.
Also annoying: I cannot display the stream name in my playlist, and the name changes when I add it from the Radio Library, so it's difficult to find the same station again to re-add.

  • Some ITunes Radio Stations Don't Broadcast

    Hi,
    Does anyone know why there are some ITunes Radion Stations, that even though their status is active, don't play when you double click on them. There are others that work fine, but some of them (even though it's showing the speaker icon over in the left-most column) aren't streaming...Is it the station itself having problems?
    Thanks,
    Henri

    Henri--
    Can you post the names of one or two of the stations you can't play? If you post the name of one that you can't listen to, I can try it on my computer and see if it works for me.
    But, FYI, sometimes I run across a radio station that won't play. I just figure it's their problem, or some kind of strange Internet wierdness of the moment.
    best,

  • Suddenly my Radio stations don't play.

    I have 3 radio stations that I enjoy playing using iTunes on my Mac. Suddenly they no longer work. I have 6 others. Same deal.  These stations are in a special folder under "Playlists".
    Did something change?  How can I get them back?
    Thanks for any advice you may offer.

  • My custom iTunes Radio station won't play on my iPhone 4S or iPad 4.

    That station was created on my iPhone and edited on my iPad. When I touch the station in an attempt to listen, its name pops up for a split second, until the radio page returns to normal. What's going on here?

    Have gone here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3510 but none of that applies - I only have one apple ID. I have tried to set up a new apple email address, and have tried to use my work email (non-apple).
    I have just discovered I can receive a Face Time call on my iPhone but not on iPad, and can dial out on facetime on iphone, but it still won't accept my email address. On my iPhone contacts I have the option to call using face time but not on iPad.

  • Suggestion: "recommended for you" itunes radio station

    It would be great to have an itunes radio station that would play music from the "recommended for you" list in the itunes store for music discovery that did not include things already in my collection. I would definitely buy more music if I had this service.

  • TS5181 View an iTunes Radio station song list

    I am curious if I can view a list of the songs that have previously played on one of my iTunes Radio stations.

    yes  when playing the radio... you see the 3 dots and 3 lines  ..click it and it shows you what you heard.. only plays the preview of the song.. not the whole song.

  • I have no problems playing iTunes Radio stations thru my tv speakers but if I try to airplay spotify from any device it plays for a while then cuts out. Any suggestions?

    I can play iTunes Radio stations via Apple TV through my tv speakers but if I try to airplay spot iffy the music cuts out after so many minutes. Any suggestions why or what I should do?

    ... sorry, my actual MacMini doesn't support a twin-monitor feature.. nor does my grafic card support a direct connection to a TV...
    you should look in your prefs, Monitor, and should be able to set for the 2nd monitor some 768res/25fps .. .if your grafic card supports that mode.. (my old iBook G3 did it that way, but it is ... "retired" ....)

  • Creating a new iTunes Radio station? iPhone 4S?

    Every time I try to create a new iTunes Radio station it tells me "Unable to Create Station. There was a problem creating this station. Try again later." I've tried several different times with several different genres. I was wondering is it because I have a 4S and that maybe this creating new stations feature wasn't available for iPhone 4S? I really don't know.
    All of the default stations work fine. I just can't create a new one.
    And sometimes when I do attempt to create a new one, I can hear short clips of a song playing on the station, but then it quickly stops & tells me that it is unable to create the station.
    I hope I put this question in the correct category. I apologize if I didn't. Thanks in advance for any helpful answers! :)

    I have just resolved this issue by signing out of iTunes in settings, powering off my iPhone, powering back on, and then signing back into iTunes. YAY :)
    Hope this helps anyone with the same problem!

  • Two I-Tunes radio stations do not play.  What do I do?

    Hello:
    On my laptop, my two favorite I-Tunes radio stations do not play.  They are DI-Hardstyle and DI-Tribal House under Electronica.  When I play them, they either skip to another station or it just gets stuck saying "getting playlist." I did not used to have this problem and I don't have it on my other computer.  What can I do to listen to them again?   Thank you.

    Since the "UPGRADE" I am unable to play my radio station that I have listened to before without problems. Now what? I am beginning to regret this iTunes 7 "UPGRADE." I am a member of the station and have always listened to it at
    http://wxpnsc.streamguys.com/listen.pls
    However since "iTunes 7" all I get is the station's intro. followed by NOTHING or going through the iTunes Library, following the xpn.org intro. the next song in my Library is played; the same happens when I attempt to access with Safari. Please tell me how to correct this?

  • Most radio stations won't play on main user account

    Most radio stations won't play. In some instances double-clicking does nothing; other times, the name of the station appears, but nothing happens. When I use a different administrative account, these stations work just fine.
    I've trashed and retrashed all the associated iTunes preferences, and have even done a complete deletion and re-install of iTunes (as per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224 ).
    Thus it seems that the issue is with the account. But I don't know where to look to fix it, and I'm perplexed. Any suggestions? Thanks...

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • ITunes Radio Stations on Remote iPad App

    How do you display iTunes Radio stations, including custom stations in the iPad Remote app? I'd prefer to see large tiles the way albums are displayed. I've seen them displayed that way previously, but now I'm stuck with only able to show this category list?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jeff

    I just stumbled upon this problem too and found that if you press edit on the "more" menu and drag the radios icon to the toolbar, it stays there. I played with this for a while and it doesnt disappear.

  • App Gamer iTunes Radio station won't load

    On iTunes on Windows, the App Gamer iTunes Radio station no longer loads.  Other iTunes Radio stations work fine.  When I select play it displays the loading bar in the status window, then that disappears and the Apple logo appears.
    Thanks!

    First, try resetting the device:
    Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.
    If this doesn't help, it may be Apple's servers are overloaded/down/whatever. Try again later. That being said, Apple shows no issues with the system at the moment. You can check this here:

  • Can anyone help with why an iTunes Radio staion no longer plays?

    Been enjoying the iTunes Radio stations, and selected the Christmas Songs station, have been listening to it, editing it and customizing it to make it my own.  However, it will not play anymore when I select it.  All of my other stations play, just not this one or the Christmas Hit Singers station.  Help is appreciated!

    I believe that was what we just did. It was reprogrammed. I am told i am in an extended network on Telecom towers. I have been here many times before without any such problem. waiting for the tech to get back to me. It was referred to a supervisor.

  • TS5181 How can I get iTunes Radio to QUIT automatically playing?!

    When I get out of the car and I'm in one of my playlists (created on a computer, not a genius or anything) and I'm in the middle of a song, my issue is when I get back in the car (it can be 5 minutes or 2 hours), my song doesn't pick up from where I left off. In fact, my playlist isn't even playing -- iTunes Radio is!! I don't want it to do that!! Does anyone know how I can get iTunes Radio to quit automatically playing?? Thank you.

    Bumping this.... iTunes Radio in Canada was supposed to come out early this year (2014). It's mid-November and still no sign and no word from Apple... Anyone have any idea if/when we can expect this?

  • Is it legal to 'stream'  from iTunes radio stations for personal use?

    I have tried to search references to this issue on this forum. Apologies if I have missed them.
    Is it legal for me to stream songs from iTunes radio stations ( using for example Streamripper) and to subsequently transfer them to my iPod for personal use?
    Am I infringing copyright if I do or have the radio stations already paid copyright?
    I am sorry to have to ask this very basic question but I can't get clear guidance elsewhere and it bothers me.
    Thank you.

    dlowe,
    I'm not a lawyer and this isn't legal advice, but I would use the analogy of video taping your favorite show on TV to watch later (or using a DVR). This, I believe is considered "fair use" of the product via what is called "time-shifting." This was the conclusion from the U.S. Supreme Court in the Betamax decision.
    As long as you don't offer the show for sale, I think you're okay.
