Itunes wont play the right song

When i select a song to play from my library i get a different song to the one selected. Usually the same 3 or 4 are played every time.
If i select a song from my purchased playlist  that plays the selected song!!

Try recreating the iTunes library (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451)

  • Itunes wont play the entire song

    I spent loads of money on songs from the itunes store today and the songs wont play the whole way through, any suggestions?

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy 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.

  • Cant play the hole song after downloading it from itunes, cant play the hole song after downloading it from itunes

    cant play the hole song after downloading it from itunes

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • TS5181 Why does iTunes Radio play the same songs over and over?

    I've been listening to the Chill Out Jazz station at work and love it, but it keeps playing the same songs over and over now...for weeks.  Is there something I'm doing wrong? I've found the same thing on the 80's channels...they just play the same 15 or 20 songs over and over.

    There is a Repeat setting.  It can be set to repeat ONE (repeat current song), ALL (repeat current list), or OFF (do not repeat).  It is probably set for ONE.
    On the nano's Now Playing screen, there is a symbol that looks the two arrows in a loop.  You may need to swipe the screen to see it.  Tap that button to change the Repeat setting.

  • IOS5 Music doesn't play the right songs!

    Newly upgraded, and when I use what used to be called iPod (now Music) the list of songs shows, but tapping certain songs doesn't play them, it plays either nothing at all, or the wrong song. Very chaotic!

    The database files on the iPad have probably become corrupted. You will have to remove the songs from the iPad and re-sync them from iTunes to re-write a fresh database file. It can easily be done by unchecking "Sync Music" in the iPad's sync settings in iTunes, sync then re-check it.

  • My phone is not playing the right song its playing the song above it in the list any reason why it is doing this?

  • ITunes for Windows will not play the next song in the list

    Hello,
    I cannot get iTunes to play the next song in my list (general list, not a playlist). The random icon and/or repeat icon is not blue. Every time I press the next button (two arrows to the right), it picks another song from my list, instead of the one that is directly beneath the one that is playing.
    I have iTunes version 11.0.1.12.
    Has anyone have this happen before and how did you solve it? Thank you for all your replies.

  • New songs synced to my ipod wont play, the songs play fine on itunes and appear on ipod but wont play..any help appreciated

    New songs synced to my ipod wont play, the songs play fine on itunes and appear on ipod but wont play..any help appreciated

    So, if you select one of these songs on the iPods screen, and try to play it, what happens?  The iPod does nothing?  It skips to the next song?
    It's possible you will have to do a Restore on the iPod, if there is data corruption on the iPod causing this problem.  The Restore erases the iPod, and removes any corruption.
    NOTE:  There may be a hardware problem, such as the iPod's hard drive becoming unreliable, that is causing this problem and data issues.  It may continue to operate as long as its data stays mostly unchanged, but if you do a Restore to update the hard drive's data in a major way, it is possible that the Restore will fail and leave the iPod non-operable.

  • TS1368 My Itunes match is not working right, it was only able to download 50% of my songs and now I can't play the balance songs.. it's so stupid

    Hello Carpathianna,
    No judgment here on the music you listen to, I have that song too in my library. If iTunes is telling you that the song is missing and you purchased it from the iTunes Store, then just delete it from your iTunes library and then download your song again. Check out the articles below for more information.

  • How do I change the settings on my ipod so that it plays continuous music.  Right now, it plays the same song over and over, even if I select the shuffle icon.  It used to show the continuous play icon, it doesn't anymore.

    Right click on a movie(in iTunes), and click "get info" then go to album artwork and add the artwork that you want...

  • My MacBook Pro 10.6.8 prompted me of a new itunes update this morning, so i downloaded it. Since then itunes has been starting up randomly on its own, and starts playing the first song on the list. I quit itunes, and it keeps reopening.

    My MacBook Pro 10.6.8 prompted me of a new itunes update this morning, so i downloaded it. Since then itunes has been starting up randomly on its own, and starts playing the first song on the list. I pause the song, and it resumes it on its own again. I'm not joking. So, I end up quiting out of itunes; but, it starts right back up again on its own. After quiting out of the app a few times, it eventually stops reopening; however, about an hour later (or less) it opens again. HOW DO I MAKE IT STOP? I'm just about to delete itunes, because I've had enough of this crap. I hope someone can help. I've restarted the laptop, and it seemed like that fixed it, then itunes started up doing the same thing again an hour later. ituneshelper is unchecked; bluetooth is off; i only have speakers and a mouse plugged in (also charger).

    Read this Apple Discussion Thread and possible solutions. The audio jack has been the main culprit, also certain sync and automation settings including connected remotes.

  • How do i get itunes or any other program for ipod to play one song and then stop instead of contiuing playing. I need it to be in the same playlist and ready to play the next song when I press play?

    how do i get itunes or any other program for ipod to play one song and then stop instead of contiuing playing. I need it to be in the same playlist and ready to play the next song when I press play?

    Good luck.  I tried to do this to cue sound effects for a theater, and never found anything.  iTunes will definitely *not* do this, nor was I able to find any player that would play one song at a time in a single playlist. 
    In my case, I ended up using AutoHotkey to tie individual tracks to the keys on an external keypad. This was an excellent solution for my problem, but I don't think AHK runs on Macs.
    One workaround is to make a folder, and fill it with *shortcuts* to the songs you want (ie, the actual files).  You can change the names to start with numbers to get them in the right order.  Then if you double-click on one it will play just that song.  You'll still have to double-click on each song.
    Might be a good time to learn AppleScript   It would  also be pretty easy to write a Java app to do this.

  • Itunes wont play any song

    ok so itunes froze, so i did that whole ctr-alt-del thing and closed it while it was importing songs from a CD. I opened it up again and tried to listen to a song. the lil song playing icon appeared next to it and it appeared on the top but it wont play. the bar on top wont even move. i dont know whats up with it and maybe i need to restart my computer but i better consult u ppl first.

    Yeah, restart your PC.
    And if it still won't work, go change the QuickTime settings, because iTunes uses QT to play stuff.
