I purchased two albums from iTunes but neither properly loaded and I cannot play any of the songs. I have prevously loaded other albums with no problems. How do I delete these albums and reload them? I don't see iTunes on iCloud.

I purchased two albums from iTunes but neither properly loaded on my iPad Mini and I cannot play any of the songs. I have prevously loaded other albums with no problems. How do I delete these albums and reload them? I don't see iTunes on iCloud.

If the albums do appear in the Music app, hold down on the album icons and the X to delete will pop up on the icons. Tap the X to delete the albums.
You don't see a anything in iCloud, you see your previous purchases in the purchased tab of the store that you bought the content in. So you find your music purchases in the purchased tab of the iTunes app on your iPad. Tap on Purchased and look for the albums in the Not on this iPad section - assuming that you are able to delete the albums from the device.

I have just updated my iTunes and it won't play any of my songs. What do I do?

I have just updated my iTunes and it won't play any of my songs, It will say that it is but the time does not move along and the sound does not play. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it but it hasn't worked. What do I do?

Hey B Noir!
Changing the 3D worked for me!
I am so glad that I ran across your post. I had been reading "solutions" to this problem all day, and most of them said to install/unistall/re-install itunes! No way! I knew there had to be an easier way, and you had it. Just a few clicks, and that was it.
Thank you for your help!
God bless.

My iTunes is not playing any of my songs!!

My iTunes hasn't been playing any of my songs, there is no error message, I simply don't get sound and the tracker doesn't move. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes several time and have run a diagnostic tests to no advail. Any ideas?

See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for a complete strip down and repair of iTunes. Before you do that however check that media plays with something else like Windows Media Player. There could be some other system-wide issue, such as a disabled audio device.

ITunes cannot play any of my songs

why is my iTunes not playing any of my songs in my song library and when i click any song, it tells me the song could not be used because the original file found not be found and will also asked me if i would like to locate?

Have you moved any files or folders in your iTunes folder? iTunes does not look at or store music. When you add a track it notes where the file is located it should play when you select the track. If you move the file or something happens to your computer so the location is no longer valid then iTunes cannot find the file to play. Have to tried to find a file iTunes should play when you select a track (say "yes" when it asks)?

My 40 gb iPod doesnt show any text on the screen

My 40 gb iPod doesnt show any text on the screen. The screen will light up and there is an audible clicking noise when using the navigation wheel. Hooked up to my iTunes the iPod also no longer shows up. Ive tried reseting with no luck. Any help is appreciated.

If a restore of the iPod in iTunes does not resolve the issue, it's likely that your iPod's screen will need to be replaced.

"I tried to change the settings in Quicktime Preferences in the streaming tab but it didn't change anything. Still getting the same problem."
What changes did you do & did you restart your computer afterwards?
Have you tried a different browser?
Download the video & then view the Keynote. See if you experience the same issue.

My iPod 7th Generation isn't playing any of my songs.

I bought an iPod 7th generation classic. It played all my songs there wasn't any issue. Two days into using it, it stopped playing any music. If you hit play it said it was playing but the countdown stayed at 0.
I returned it and bought a new one.
However, the same thing has happened here.
It is also stuck on lock.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I have problems with Itunes Match on my Iphone4, It doesnt played any song and is allways on infinite skip!

Please I need help I cant find anyway to deactivate IMatch on my Iphone 4. Its stucked on a loop of skipping songs on the cloud and even when the music its on the Iphone still doesnt played it. Driven me crazy, because I already turn off Imatch on the settings and clossed the app several times, restart the Iphone with the power buttom. And I dont know how to make come to work! Help!

You say your phone will not sync but then you say, "when it does sync."
Does it sync or not? Did you remember to select music to sync onto your phone before clicking on Apply or Sync?
You do have to have iTunes on your computer in order to sync your phone. And your music must be in iTunes.

IPod Mini playing only half a song

I'm having a problem with my iPod mini. I uploaded a bunch of cd's onto my iPod last night. During the last cd my computer and iPod froze for about an hour. So I did the unthinkable and unhooked my iPod. Then all of my songs wouldn't play, so I deleted everything. Now when I upload songs, only half the song will play or sometimes the whole song will play but then the next song will only play a few seconds. It's very frustrating! What should I do?

What I suggest doing is using your ipod updater software to reset your mini to Factory Standards. Then, if you receive any problems during updating, there should be a little green keyboard with an arrow on your start toolbar by the time. It's called "Safely Remove Hardware" and you can use that to end the connection with your computer. And usually when compuers freeze, they should go back to normal within at least a day at the longest.

Old problem I know but I cant play any of the songs in my library.tells me cant find original . Have not changed anything apart from going from xp to windows 7.

This support community is a bit new for me. Have read some old entries with the same problem but couldnt see any solutions. Libray shows all the songs ( over 2500) but I cant play any of them. Message is that itunes cant find the original. ???? only difference is going from xp to windows 7 . can I put the songs from my ipod back on my computer maybe?

Go into windows explorer and find out where the music is now located - in Windows 7 you have libraries for documents, music, photos and video.
iTunes is located:
Music
itunes
iTunes Media
music
If all the files are in that place it may just be that you have to amend a preference in iTunes:
Edit
Preferences
Advanced
ensure Keep itunes Media organised and Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library are both ticked
Once ticked you will have a bit of a wait while iTunes re-organises the library but then your songs should all be playable again.

My ipod doesnt play sound on Videos

I have recently purchased the 80GB Ipod video,and I uploaded many videos but it doesnt play the sound.Could any one help me on this?

Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

My Ipod Always Plays the same set Songs - I have many others to select from

I have many songs on my IPod and playlists but when I put the IPod on Shuffle (as I usually do) it always seems to play from a small list of these songs and doesn't seem to shuffle through the whole playlist or library.
All songs are checked in my ITunes library.
All songs will play, but Shuffle will not select them all. I don't know why but it always seems to use the same 50 to 75 songs.
Is there a setting or some control which would limit the songs used in Shuffle?
I don't know how to solve this. What should I be looking for? Can you help?
Thank you.

Are you going into the Songs menu to play songs in Shuffle mode? If not, then which ever menu you are using (artists, genre, composer) will not have all your songs in it.
Another reason why songs may not play in Shuffle mode is because the songs are set to *Skip when shuffling.* Try this test; put the iPod in shuffle mode (do not start shuffle from the Main Menu), play a song and look at the 1 of X number below the artist info. Note the X number. Now turn off Shuffle and check the X number again. If it increases, then those extra (new) songs are set to *Skip when shuffling* and you will need to change them in iTunes and Sync the iPod to iTunes. (Select the song in iTunes; *File/Get Info/Options* and make sure the box named *Skip when shuffling* does not have a tick in it. If it does, that's the problem.
