ITunes radio on my iMac plays 1 song then stops playing
I'm currently running iMac 10.9 with iTunes 11.1.3. Starting today, when I play iTunes Radio, it plays 1 song then stops.
Have you tried closing and restarting itunes or restarting the computer? I've had itunes get squirrelly before, and close and reopen took care of it.

New or modified iTune playlists only play one song then stop.
My wife changed the settings on iTunes last night. New, or modified playlists only play current songs then stop. Existing playlists work normally.
OS X 10.8.5 (12F45) iTyens 11.1.3 (8)Are the songs on the CD from different artists?
If so, then if you are going into MUSIC -> ARTIST -> Christmas CD and hitting PLAY, it will play the songs from THAT ARTIST on THAT CD, probably only one.
What you'd have to do is go on your iPod: MUSIC -> ALBUM -> Christmas CD. By doing this, you'll play every song from that album regardless of artist. -
I downloaded an album and all of the tracks will play about 3/4 of the song then stop and play the next song. I went to itunes store and it said the songs fully downloaded. So how do I get the full song into my library?
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the 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. -
I'm trying to find a way for a 25 foot tall sculpture of Elvis standing in a jukebox to play one Elvis hit song randomly by being activated by a motion detector. Can the iPod Shuffle be activated to play just one song, then stop or turn off. Then be activated again, by the motion detector, and play another single randomly selected song and then stop or turn off, waiting to be activated again by the motion detector?
I was hoping the iPod shuffle would be able to do this, being the least expensive iPod. I've tried reading the online manuals and help files, but I can't find any info about whether it could accomplish this one-random-song-play-and-then-stop feature.
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.8)Since a shuffle has mechanical controls (buttons) for controlling its play, it would seem to be poor choice for this purpose... ALTHOUGH a 1st Gen shuffle AND a speaker system which specifically interfaced (dockable) to it with external controls that included a remote would work. As would any iPod which is remotely controllable...

How to play one song then stop on iPhone?
iTunes playlist on my computer can play one song then stop because there is the uncheck all songs feature, but apparently iPhone doesn't have the same feature.
Need to play one song then have it stop instead of going to another song in the playlist. Creating 20+ single-song playlists is inefficient.
I know there is the Play on Cue app for $1.99 but why should I have to have another app on my phone do what iTunes on my computer already does built-in (play one song then stop)?"Creating 20+ single-song playlists is inefficient." Please read next time.

I downloaded several cds to my external hard drive in .mp3 format. Later, I copied them to iTunes. The songs only play when the external hard drive is plugged in. I tried to load the songs from iTunes to my iPhone and the songs don't play. I thought iTunes allowed me to transfer music to my iPhone and play it. What am I doing wrong?
Hi skoorb1,
When adding music to iTunes, you can set it to either make a local copy of the file, or simply point to the original location of the file (for example, on an external hard drive). If it is set to do the latter, it will not be able to play or transfer those files when the external hard drive is not plugged in. You may find the following article helpful:

I can see the itunes library on apple tv but songs will not play
I can see the itunes library on apple tv but songs will not play, this happens after 2 songs play
Finally achieved my fix by changing channels on my Billlion router to 11, and not letting the ATV sleep. Give it a try, I spent a good four frustrating weeks until I did this.

HT2463 Why does my apple tv play one song then stops streaming?
Why does my apple tv play one song then stops streaming?
Make sure all of your songs have a checkmark next to the song title. There are small blue boxes that need to be checked for songs to play consecutively.
If the library is unchecked, you can easily recheck things by clicking on a song, going to the top line selecting Edit>Select All, then right clicking on the selection and choosing "Check Selection". -
At night, as soon as I plug my iphone to be recharged, my iphone starts behaving anomaly. It is like somebody has taken control of it. I see the screens moving, music starts playing and then stopping, etc. I have noticed that several nights. What I do is in Settings is to change into Plane Mode, thinking that, may be if I do that, somebody that has taking control of it will not be able to download data. Yesterday night, I was awakened by an alarm, whose setting I did not changed. When I looked over, the alarm screen changed to Settings and the Plane Mode changed alone in front of my eyes, from on to off.
I have not observed such a situation during the day. Only when I plug the cable.
I suspected that may be there is no Trojan installed. May be the cable, which is a spare cable, has been modified by a hacker, and it has electronics installed in the connector. But tested with the original cable, and the behavior was the same, as described above.Thanks Meg for your reply.
It could be that both cable are bad. But, anyway, you would not expect any of these manifestations, even with a bad cable. I had bad cable for my 4s, and never saw such a thing!
I contacted by chat the support of Apple. They told me that this behavior could be a software problem and recommended me to do a full recover of my iphone. That meant, putting in at the factory conditions and recup all the data from the backup. I did that, and the behavior did not change. The backup was made with the data of my PC, not icloud. Tomorrow will try with icloud and check if that will work. -
I am having trouble updating iTunes 10.7- it downloads about 70% then stops and says error. What can I do to update??
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer? -
I used iPhone 4, but my brother gave his iPhone 4S away to me. I can't sync his iphone to my itune. It said 'preparing to sync' then stop working.
I completed restoring his iPhone 4s from my iPhone 4 back up......only sync that still doesn't work
TackWelcome to the Apple Community.
This user tip might help you understand how accounts work with Contacts (Address Book). (25)
First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.
Contact syncing is nothing to do with iCloud back up, the only settings you should be concerned with on the device are at settings > iCloud page. -
After listening to NPR for about a minute, screen fades to dim, then to black then stops playing.
After listening to NPR for about a minute, screen fades to dim, then to black then stops playing.
I have to open the phone again, the player is still visible, so I start playing again and the same sequence happens about 1:10 later and on and on.
I thought it might be the facebook thing so I deleted my facebaook account from my iphone, restarted the iphone (reboot) and it still does the same thing.
What am I missing here? I don't see any screen saver settings or anywhere else I can stop this fom happening. I reach NPR on the Google search app.
Could that have a connection?
Thanks! Iphone 4s and IOS 6.0.1Steve Garman wrote:

That's why this is happening, you're not using an app designed to run in the background. Look in the app store to see if NPR has a dedicated app. If so, & you use their app, it should run in the background. The only other way to stop this would be to set Auto-Lock to "Never". However, if you did that, you'll be measuring your battery life in minutes. -
Hi. I have an iPhone 4s. The music doesn't play when I connect it to my car stereo. It used to play previously but stopped playing all of a sudden. My phone is getting charged when I cut it to the USB port. Please help with this. The iOS is 6.1.3.
Hello Priyanks,
I found an article with steps you can take to troubleshoot issues with an iPhone not connecting to your car stereo:

attempted to transfer itunes music from pc to new imac. didn't work. apple suggest using sharing method. main library of music is on pc. did those steps and shared library shows up on mac but when you click on the song to play it doesn't play or maybe ther is no content? any suggestions?
Hi there,
It sounds like your purchased content is not transfering via a flash drive. It may be easier to re-download this contnet directly from iTunes. Take a look at the article below for mor information.

Can anyone tell why my Itunes will only play 5 or 6 songs on shuffle then stop even in the middle of a song, and the only way to fix it is to exit Itunes completley and reopen it?????
This is in regards to a 4th gen 40gb clickwheel ipod.
Hi, i've also been having a very similar problem with my ipod as well. I find that regardless of which windows-based pc i use (either my xp laptop @ home, or my win2000 desktop @ work) windows and itunes refuses to recognise my ipod. In windows explorer it will show it as a removable drive, but if i click on it, windows freezes. If I try to disconnect it, I cant because windows keeps reporting that 'the device is being used, try disconnecting later' and so then i shut down my laptop to disconnect it safely.
Lately, like you, i've also noticed that clicking sound it makes. It happens when i connect my ipod to my computer - like the drive inside it is constantly restarting or something, and i get it when i'm playing / charging it in my dock. I've also noticed that when it's playing whilst charging, it just freezes on a song, then skips a couple of songs.
I've just discovered the disgnostic tools on my ipod, so i think i'll run a couple of tests (ie HDD scan) and depending on the outcome, i'll go visit the apple store.
