Itunes won't play mp3 after downloaded from firefox, but it does play it from Chrome

I download an mp3 in Firefox, which is current--31.0.  I click on the download, iTunes opens it but it doesn't play it or even load it into iTunes.  When I download an mp3 from Chrome, it opens iTunes just fine and plays the song.  I have checked my add-ons and I have the iTunes applications detector in my plug-ins.  This is a brand new computer, so that probably has something to do with it.  I'm running Windows 8.1 on a Lenovo Ideapad.  I would appreciate any help with this problem as my job deal with music frequently and I use Firefox most often.  Thank you.

The headers on the problem tracks may be corrupted or nonstandard. This can happen with some MP3 conversion or import utilities, and iTunes is very picky about headers. If you search the web for "mp3 repair" you'll find some repair tools. Most are for Windows, but here's one for Mac that I've seen mentioned:
Mp3 Validator Mac version
I haven't tried it so I can't attest to how well (or indeed if) it will work.
Hope this helps.

  • ITunes won't install update after downloading Yosemite

    I downloaded Yosemite today and now my iTunes won't open because apparently the version I had doesn't work with Yosemite.  After I clicked "Install" for iTunes in the App Store (so I could get the latest version) it stays "paused" in the download process and won't resume the download.

    Hi, kdub5.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that you can not update iTunes due to a .msi error.  I would recommend uninstalling iTunes and all of it's components as outlined in the first article below.  For any component that gives you the .msi error, go through the steps in the second article below.  
    Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" alert appears when you remove Apple software in Windows
    Cheers,

  • ITunes won't pickup iPhone after downloading latest software

    I recently downloaded the latest iTunes software 10.5.2 on my macbook pro and now my iphone won't register when I plug it in.
    iTunes opens but it won't show any devices.
    I've googled it and it seems a number of others have had similar problems.  Some advised to trash the iTunes version and reinstall it but others said they did this and it worked for the first instance but after rebooting iTunes didn't pickup the iphone again.
    Before I attempt this, has anyone out there had this issue and knows how to solve it?

    You have to upgrade to 10.6.8 to be able to download iTunes 11.  The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. After you’ve installed that then use the 10.6.8 combo updater to finish it off. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion, Mountain Lion or Mavericks. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    System Requirements for 10.6:
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
    Some features require a compatible internet service provider: fees may apply.

  • Itunes won't update.  I download the updates, but then get an error message that they failed to install.

    For many weeks now, my iTunes has failed to update.  I download the updates and they go through the installation process, but then I get an error message that they failed to install.  How can I update?

    Wild guess but if your WinXP system has formatted your drive(s) as FAT32 then the maximum file size is 4GB.  Could be that the download in 1080p is >4GB?  (if formatted NTFS then this should not be a problem).
    Again just a guess with iTunes on WinXP but something easy to check first.

  • Windows 7 won't shut down after I close firefox, but if I sign on to internet explorer and then shut down windoes 7 will shut down properly. Whats up?

    Latlely when I attempt to shut down my Hp Pavilion dv6 3230 us Laptop it goes through the normal process I believe, however, the screen shows "shutting down" but it will show the screen forever until I plug out the power supply. All of the keys and combinations of keys are inoperable including the mouse.
    If I sign on to Internet Explorer after I sign out of Firefox, and then sign out of Internet Explorer the Laptop will shut down successfully.

    Have you run the iPhoto Library Upgrader? You need to direct it to the location of your old iPhoto Library by clicking the "Choose Library" button in the lower right corner of the panel you are seeing when the upgrade starts.

  • My itunes won't launch even after reinstalling.  Looked in itunes folder and somehow lost itunes library?  HELP!

    My itunes won't launch even after reinstalling.  Looked in itunes folder and somehow lost itunes library?  HELP!

    The first thing I'd suggest is to get a good antispyware checker and give it a go at your system. Some recent spyware has been reported by other users to shut down iTunes or prevent it from launching. From user reports, Ewido seems to be the best at catching it. You can download a free version of Ewido here.
    If that doesn't cure the problem, try deleting the iTunes preference files:
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    and
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Data\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
    You might have to turn on "show hidden files" to find them. (Right click "my computer", select open, select Tools menu -> Folder Options. Select View tab, "show hidden files" radio button is in the center scrolling panel.) Delete them or if you want to be able to put them back if it doesn't help, drag them to some other location. This will force iTunes to run the setup assistant the next time you launch iTunes. Note that you'll have to go back and set any preferences you've changed from the default.
    If that still doesn't work, try this:
    Bugie: Perform a Thorough & Complete Uninstall and Reinstall of iTunes/QuickTime.
    Hope this helps.

  • Trying to Reinstall iTunes: Can't find it after Download

    This morning I tried to update iTunes. It failed. I got a message to reinstall iTunes. I've removed iTunes from the computer and downloaded the installer but it does not appear in Downloads or Desktop. Where would it be?

    I have faced such kind of issue while downloading iTunes it says thank you for downloading tunes but it does not get downloaded not sure why that happens but you can download iTunes from "filehippo" just search for filehippo on google and go to www.filehippo.com and from there in the search box search for iTunes and download iTunes 32 bit or 64 bit according to your windows version. You can find windows version by right click on My Computer and then Properties.

  • Okay so when I try to download apps on my phone a totally different Apple ID that I've never used before popped up. I've already tried settings under apps/iTunes and signed into my own apple account. But even doing so my apple Id won't show up

    Okay so when I try to download apps on my phone a totally different Apple ID that I've never used before popped up. I've already tried settings under apps/iTunes and signed into my own apple account. But even doing so my apple Id won't show up

    Try this:
    Open the iTunes app, select the Music tab, then scroll all the way down to the bottom.  Here you can sign out of any current Apple ID and sign into a new one.  Good luck!
    And just in case there is another Apple ID linked to your account you can check at http://appleid.apple.com.
