Music Is on my Iphone but will not play.

I have an Iphone 4, updated to IOS 7.0.4
My music syncs to my phone and i can clearly see it but it wont play it just flicks through every song.
Please Help

Same problem. iOS 7.0.4 and iPhone 4S with approx 100 CDs synced, and I have found 2 CD that flick through all the songs without playing any of them. Was going to try deleting them from my phone and resyncing them, but can't figure that out either.

Why did a cd i bought show up on my iphone but will not play

I bought some cds on iTunes. I had my phone plugged into my computer charging. I have no yet synced my iphone with my new computer so it was just charging. When I went to play music off of my phone later I noticed that the music I had purchased was on my phone but I could not play it. How can I play it?

Hi there Graham!
I have a couple of articles that can help you troubleshoot this issue. First, if you are downloading HD content, you will need to know the system requirements for HD playback, which can be found here:
iTunes: Purchasing and viewing HD videos
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3209
Next, you will want to check your video playback settings on your Windows machine. The steps for that can be found right here:

Hope that helps. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

At least I'm not the only one with the issue. I was looking it up so see if others had the same problem and found a bunch of posts about it. I'm assuming it's not the phone then, it's the software. Should I bring it to the Apple Store? Replacing the phone seems stupid, because the phone isn't really the problem. It's the software! Maybe the iOS 5.0.2 will fix it??? I don't really want to wait though, it's a pain. If a lot of people have this issue it should get Apple's attention. They need to do something to fix it, ASAP!

Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA.

Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA. Keeps telling me "unable to verify address" and says it is sending me a verification link to my email address but I never get anything. Crazy.
After a while it tells then me that it cannot verify my email address because of a network connection ("Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again. ")
Does anyone have any ideas?

HT1449 I've transferred my itunes library from PC to Macbook pro running latest itunes and now it will not recognize my iPods (nano 4 and 5th Gen an Ipod touch). All music is there and playable but will not recognize any devices

I've transferred my itunes library from PC to Macbook pro running latest itunes and now it will not recognize my iPods (nano 4 and 5th Gen an Ipod touch). All music is there and playable but will not recognize any devices. Help please

The ipod is not a backup/storage device.
You need to copy everything from your old computer to your new one.
The Apple store will do this for you, you can call apple support and they will help you, you can use google.

My iPhone 4S will not play music out loud. I can't turn sound up or down, it doesn't even give me the option. I think that it thinks its docked, I've tried to blow air in it, I've tried compressed air with no luck.

Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. See if fixed. If not, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, clean again, very well with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.

TS1717 music video downloaded but will not play

i just downloaded a music video, but will not play. Comes up as a blank screen. Any ideas ?

Hi c, well my first thot is that it didn't install. You can verify this at www.adobe.com/software/flash/about
Just a word of advice, if you continue trying to implement a solution before you know what the problem is,
you are just creating a worse situation.
Post back with what operating system are you using?
Which Browser and version?
Post back with that info please and advise what the link said.
Thanks

My iphone 4s will not play most of my songs. they appear grey in the list with a dotted circle in front of them. how do i fix this?

My Iphone 4s stopped playing a majority of my songs after i tried to sync a cd to my phone through itunes. The songs will open but will not play. They remain at zero. They appear to be grey on the list instead of the usual black font color and they have dotted grey circles in front of them when they are opened in my itunes account under the phone. In the phone's song list they are also grey, with red boxes within a circle behind their titles. In my general itunes music library the songs play perfectly fine. It is only under my phone that i am having issues. can anyone tell me why; or how to correct the problem?

Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.

ITunes imports songs from an audio CD, but will not play them. Why?

90% of my iTunes music library has come from importing old audio CDs into iTunes. I haven't imported any in a while, but I recently imported an audio album, iTunes recognized the artist and songs, imported into the library bu if I select one in iTunes for playing, it will not play.
The other song's in the library all still play fine so iTunes is working correctly. But the newly imported CD will not play. Seems very strange it recognizes the CD and imports it but will not play. No error, no message, no nothing. What gives?
Thanks.

I think the blue text means that Windows compressed the files when it did a disk cleanup or something. I might be wrong, because I haven't used that disk cleanup feautre in ages - it did things I didn't want it to do.
So google around and find out how to uncompress one, and see if it plays.

ITunes says computer not authorized. When I try to authorize computer it says it is already authorized but will not play song

iTunes says computer not authorized. When I try to authorize computer it says it is already authorized but will not play song. Note. Library was moved from PC to MAC. I am signed in to Itunes with the Apple ID created on the old computer which is different than the Apple ID used to set up the MAC.

I'm experiencing the same thing under iTunes 11.1.1:
iTunes says the computer is not authorized, prompts me to authorize
I enter my credentials, iTunes says computer is already authorized
When I attempt to play song, iTunes starts at bullet point 1 above over again.
My attempted fixes:
I tried everything in this support document, to no avail: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389 (Note: I cannot find a SC Info folder on my Mac)
Deauthorize and then reauthorize computer
Delete song and try to redownload from iTunes store - there's only a button that says 'purchased' with no option to redownload it
Note: I am using only one iTunes account, and I double checked the song info - I'm authorizing the correct account - 12 songs from the same album purchased at the same time play fine. As does the song in question - from the finder. Only iTunes stubbornly refuses to play it.
The most odd thing is that iTunes music is DRM free - the song in question was purchased only a few months ago. Thus there's no need to authorize the computer to play it.
I was hoping that iTunes 11.1.1 would cure it - no dice.
