-iTunes Clips Songs-

Upon importing songs into my library I have noticed that itunes will cut the length of various songs down. For instance a song that is 6:31 will be chopped to 0:04. Occasionally when the song is played on an ipod the track will reach the four second "end" and keep playing through. On itunes the track will simply reach the four second mark, end there and the next clipped track will begin. The songs aren't programmed to be shorter in "get info" and they play through in VLC.
This is a well annoying bug, and I feel as though I've tried everything. Has anyone else encountered this? Maybe even found a workaround? I am using iTunes 9.0.1 and a relatively new 80G classic iPod.
Please help Apple!
Thanks.

If this is a known issue, and if Apple is listening, I'd like to add the following case:
I had a long track that I digitized from my LP to mp3 (Live/Dead Dark Star, if you must know). The track is 23:09 long, but iTunes would only play it to ~22:20. It also didn't increment the play count! The slider showed the track's length as 23:09, but if I clicked on it near the end it would only go up to 20:19. I inspected the mp3 in another app (Audacity) and it was fine. So I asked iTunes to "save as mp3" and examined the saved result -- no problem, it goes up to 23:09. However, at this point iTunes relented and started playing the track all the way up to the end. Oddly enough, it still doesn't let me click beyond 20:19.

Itunes purchased song stops half way through

I recently transfered my itunes library to a new Macbook 13 inch. It was tricky to do because my library was on an external hard drive. I did have to redownload some, but not all of my purchased content. Now many of my itunes purchased songs are clipped midway through the song when played. This is only happening to songs that I purchased in itunes. Any ideas as to how to fix this problem? Thanks!

If you are in a country where re-downloading is possible (check this with iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability by Country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085), delete the track (and the original file) and download again (Downloading [using iOS or computer] past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519). See tips on downloading in https://discussions.apple.com/message/19097773, especially unchecking the "Allow Simultaneous Downloads" box in the downloads tab of iTunes.

Importing ITunes clips into FCP project

Hello everyone,
is it possible to import an ITunes purchased song into the timeline of FCP? And if yes, what happens if I am exporting a videoclip? Will it actually work?
I purchased some songs on ITunes I want to use in a video project and now I am realizing that it might not work because of the copy protection.

you've got a few things going against you here ...
amongst them is the high likelyhood that you have not got the license to use the music clip in your video production, that the use of mp3 compressed audio is not viable in FCP, and yes, the tracks are copy protected (for good reason)

How can i transfer my itunes music library to my iphone? currently it will only transfer itunes purchased songs and not my whole library.

For non-purchased music like CD rip music, or website downloaded songs, you need some third party software to copy the music from iPod to mac. If you need details, here is a guide about how to get music from iPod to macbook. Hope it helps.

How do you get iTunes purchased songs to automatically play one after the other

How do you get iTunes purchased songs to play automatically one after the other without having to hit play for each song ? Also I lost all my pictures on my iPad when I installed iOS 7 upgrade. Any way to get them back? Thanks. Dr Ron.

Hi Dr. Ron,
By your question, I am wondering if you are playing your music from the iTunes app rather than the Music app?
In the Music App, you can go to any of the options at the bottom and click on a song to play and it will then continue to play the songs in that category. You can also select "Shuffle" to shuffle them.
As for your Photos, did you have them backed up anywhere?
Cheers,
GB

How do you stop downloading itunes match songs to iphone 5

How do you stop downloading itunes match songs to iphone 5?
Cell data is turned off but it is still downloading.

When you initially enable iTunes Match on any iDevice it is wise to let it operate for a good period docked or with good WiFi.
Best route to stop it if essential is to switch off iTunes Match.

ITunes plus songs - Can I use it in more than one computer?

Hi,
I"m planning to buy songs from iTunes. Now that the songs are iTunes plus, is it possible to copy the song file to a different PC and upload it to iTunes?
I've been used to buying songs from Amazon as it is MP3 format and wondering if iTunes plus offers the same flexibility as MP3 format when it comes to using it in multiple devices/machines.
Any thoughts on this is appreciated.
Thanks
SN

+"I've been used to buying songs from Amazon as it is MP3 format and wondering if iTunes plus offers the same flexibility as MP3 format when it comes to using it in multiple devices/machines."+
Yes you can copy the iTunes Plus songs to other machines.
I wouldn't quite say it has the "same flexibility," however. The Amazon songs, being MP3s, can be played in virtually any player, program, or phone, while the iTunes songs, being in AAC format, are more likely to run into incompatibilities. But if you are talking about other machines running iTunes, then it will not be a problem.

I have paid for itunes match and have now lost all my music of my iphone except what I paid for from itunes, 964 songs gone not at all happy. Can anyone help

I have paid for itunes match and have now lost all my music off my iphone except what I paid for from itunes, 964 songs gone into the cloud. Can anyone help please?

Enabling iTunes Match does not delete music from your computer. Why do you think it is now not in the iTunes library if it was before? If all of your music was in the iTunes library then it is also now in the cloud if iTunes has completed it's scan and all the music meets the match requirements. Enable the iCloud Status column in the iTunes browser by switching to Song view and pulling down View > View Options. Select iCloud Status then close the small window. Sort on the new column. Your music should be listed as "purchased," "matched" and "uploaded." Some tracks may be "ineligible." Post back and let us know.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Can you save your itunes and songs onto an external hard drive so that incase your computer crashes you will still have all your music?

Can you save your itunes and songs onto an external hard drive so that incase your computer crashes you will still have all your music?

The procedures below are for "moving" your library but as long as you don't delete it from your internal drive you are basically backing up.
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Simple answer: Copy your whole iTunes folder to the external drive. For subsequent backups you might want to learn about cloning and using a tool that only does incremental backups of recently changed items rather than copying all your files each time.

In Itunes store, song preview plays for only 5-10 seconds and then stops. Songs in my Itunes library play start to finish.

In Itunes store, song preview plays for only 5-10 seconds and then stops. Songs in my Itunes library play entirely from start to finish.

My Itunes previews have been playing fully now for the past few days. After trying every suggestion possible to fix the problem of 5-10 second previews, I took the advice on one feed to use OpenDNS for your network internet connection. There are internet sites that will instruct you how to do it. Just Google "opendns for (your operating system)". I have Windows XP and followed a video instruction at www.top-windows-tutorals.com/using-opendns.html. Afterward, close your browser and then flush the DNS Resolver cache; Start/Run, type CMD in the open field, click OK, in resulting window type ipconfig/flushdns, press return on keyboard. No guarantees, but my browser is faster and my Itunes previews are playing fully so far. But I still shudder every time I hit the preview button.

Upgraded to 7.6 and still can't download itunes plus songs

iTunes requests that I upgrade to a newer version in order to purchase iTunes Plus songs. I've downloaded the 7.6 version about 10 times and still get the message that I need to upgrade. What's up???

Did you actually install the new version or just download it?
