ITunes not playing songs correctly!!!! PLEASE HELP

Very recently, iTunes decides to turn evil on me by making all the songs I play on there scratchy and un-listenable. While I can still use my other media players such as winamp, the music runs fine, but when I play it on iTunes its still scratchy. Please help!

my ipod too! it almost sounds like a cd is scratched and its skipping. but isnt that one of the reasons we bought our ipods anyways...so that we dont have to deal with sratching or skipping!!!! someone give us an answer!!

    I have had this problem for a few weeks...Itunes pauses when it is playing a song, starts playing the song again and a few seconds later does the same thing.
    What could be going on?

  • Purchased album and all songs do not play completely. Please help

    I recently purchased an album on Itunes and some of the songs from the album do not play completely.  They start and then stop a few minutes in.  I called customer service and they said to redownload the album but its not giving me that option. 
    My Ipod is no longer syncing my music added either.  Any suggestions, I would appreciate it!

    To redownload you need:

  • Itunes downloaded tv show plays on itunes, not on ipod. PLEASE HELP !

    I have downloaded TV programs from the ITunes store. They play in Itunes and appear in the listings on my Ipod. However, when I click on them to play them, the little Play symbol appears, the screen goes dark for about 10 seconds and then it returns to the list. All the latest software is on. This is a new Ipod. Everything else seems to work. Any thoughts? PLEASE HELP ME, i'm sort of hopeless at this...
    thanks !

    Also make sure if your iPod software is up to date.

  • Partial solution for iTunes not playing songs or playing partial songs

    Like a lot of other people, my iTunes (latest version 6.0.3.5 as well as previous versions), would refuse to play certain songs, or, would play only the first X seconds of a song.
    I had been thinking all along that the song was encoded correctly and now iTunes would not play it.
    Well it turns out that the iPod will not play it either, meaning that PLAYBACK was not the issue, but ENCODING.
    I have another computer on our home network...I encoded a CD with that computer (same version of iTunes), then transfered the files to the "broken" computer...with the newly encoded files from the other computer, the "broken" computer plays the songs perfectly.
    So anyway, the problem is with ENCODING, not PLAYBACK.
    Now I have to go back and re-encode about 30 CD's...the number of CD's I've encoded on the broken computer since the no-playback/partial-palyback issue first surfaced.
    We all still have a big problem here in figuring how to get the broken computers to encode correctly.
    Hope this helps.

    You might check and see what codecs are installed on your PC...

  • ITunes not playing songs

    Hey all! So, I bought a song on iTunes and none of my devices (iPod, phone, computer). When trying to play it on my computer, I have to sign in to authorize the computer, which I already have it authorized. and it doesnt do this any other purchased songs. It was only recently that this started happening. My friend told me to check the IP address on the internet because that could have altered it, but I dont think that is it. Please help?

    I am experiencing the same problems. Some of (not all of) my purchaced music is not playable. was working find one day and then the next it just stops. The music that is not playable is not even able to be sinked with my iphone. when the iphone stopped playing music i was forced into restoring it. Lost all my music that i once had that wasn't playable on the PC.

  • Itunes not playing songs....getting an error message telling me the song will not play and cant be found

    I have had an itunes account for a long time. recently i turned it on to get new songs and realized that alot of my old song are not playing. it shows the file, but when i try to play it tells me file can not be found. please help figure this out. thanks.

    When you see a "file" in your iTunes library (inside itunes) it is not showing you the file.  Select it in itunes and then get info -  this will show you where  the actual file is on your hard drive under the "where" bullet.  Try this first for a song that is working.  It will show where your library is, and you can then see how your library is organized.
    Now try it for a song it can't find.  You will probably get the same error, (can't find the file)  However, then use widows to search your entire computer for the file.  Hopefully by looking at the other songs that ARE there, you'll get a better idea of what exactly to search for.
    Finally, when you "add" a song into iTunes, you can be given the option to "Copy" the file into your itunes library (recommended) or just leave a pointer (like a shortcut) to the file.  If you choose this pointer/shortcut option, it can be pretty easy to delte/move the files by accident.  If you move them, the shortcut/pointer will become broken.

  • ITunes Not Playing songs in library

    Help!! In iTunes all the songs listed under the category of "playlists" will not play. I keep clicking on the play icon and nothing happens. BUT, if I go to the "music" category under "Library", I can click on any item and it will play just fine.
    I have reinstalled iTunes and tried several other hints from the FAQ section of the support for iTunes page. Anyone have any ideas?

    Have you moved your music around? Sounds like it's been moved and is not where iTunes expects to find it.

  • Itunes not working on microsoft please help.

    hi,
    i got a new ipod nano 2nd generation for christmas and i loaded itunes on my laptop, but my mum accidently deleted it and so i downloaded it again.
    but now it wont open because it says:
    "itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. we are sorry for the inconvenience."
    i have tried to fix it but i cant.
    my computer also seems to not download quicktime with the itunes.
    please help.
    thanx
    xox

    It is not clear what has happened from what you say, but the iTunes download does include a copy of Quicktime, and iTunes will not work unless there is a functioning Quicktime.
    Rather than try and workout what is going on, it is probably best to start again and completely uninstall iTunes and Quicktime using the method here:

    Follow all the steps, then save the latest iTunes from the link on the page and install.

  • Newbie question - Regions grayed out, audio not playing... please help!

    Good morning,
    I've got a problem that seems like it should have a simple solution, but I don't know enough about Logic to know what the solution is.
    I had put together a few tracks and everything was working fine. Now, for some reason, the regions are grayed out and when I hit play, there is no sound and the meters do not register anything. I've checked the levels on the mixer, and I have the proper audio input-output settings in the preferences (I think); the audio just isn't playing.
    Note that when I double click the region and go into sample editor mode, the audio plays fine.
    Here is a screenshot: http://grab.by/3nMD
    Can someone please help?
    Thanks so much!

    Hello,
    Logic has a number of ways to mute or solo regions, tracks and channels.
    Select the two regions (they are selected in the picture) and press the 'M' key on your keyboard. This will unmute them.
    There is a very good and easy to follow tutorial for new users I recommend very highly -

  • Itunes not playing songs fully

    There are a few songs that itunes is not playing. The one I bought from the itunes music store. It will play about 18seconds of the song and the skip to the next song. I have the lastest version and everything. And when I transfer the songs to my ipod it does the same thing. How can this be fixed?
    Thanks!
      Mac OS X (10.2.x)  

    For the CD burner issue, you'll want to check out PatchBurn (MacUpdate.com has it I believe) to patch your drivers. It works for almost ANY CD burner made. As to the song itself, check to be sure the play time shows more than 18 seconds. A lot of songs you can "check out" before you buy, and they download between 15 and 30 seconds of the song with the EXACT same name as the one you can purchase. I have slapped myself once or twice when I checked out a track, and then purchased it, but like a fool, when iTunes asked if I wanted to replace it (the sample) I chose NO, so I bought a song and kept a sample of it only. That's a big part of why I quit sampling songs from the store.

  • Itunes not playing songs properly

    Itunes is playing SOME (not all) songs halfway, then skips to the next track. Some songs are missing entirely (they're listed, but when clicked doesn't play at all). Some songs is half of the right song, then is mixed with another song from another artist.
    This happened before I updated to the new Itunes, did the update but still the problem persists.
    Anyone know how I can fix this?

    I have the exactly same problem. iTunes corrupted my entire library, 20GB of MP3s, all of them play a few seconds and then go back to the beggining. Using a sound editor I can see that it actually copied the first seconds of all songs and added it to the beggining. The number of seconds is not consistent on all the MP3s, some play 2 seconds and then go back to the beggining while others can play over 12 seconds before going back to the beggining. This happened after I noticed some of my older MP3s had an old version of the ID3Tags, so I used iTunes to convert my entire library's ID3Tag to the newer version. This happened about 2 years ago and I had no backup of my original files. The only fix to this problem I've found until now is to manually remove this extra seconds from the beggining of each MP3, but it's impossible to do that with over 5000 songs.
