My music synced to my iPhone but it won't play! There is a box on the right of the song title that almost looks like a stop symbol. What can I do to fix this?

This has never happened to me before and I have had my iPhone for a couple years now. Just today I bought a couple albums on my mac through iTunes and they downloaded just fine. I have iCloud so they were automatically transferred to my phone. When I go to listen to the songs I found that they won't play. There is a gray box on the far right next to the song title. It won't play and after a little while it just skips to the next song. The weird thing is some songs did download all the way and work just fine. Please help!!!!

I have heard of some people having a similar problem, which was resolved by a simple restart of their iPhone.  If that doesn't help you, you may want to consider de-authorizingyour computer in iTunes, then re-authorizing it and performing a sync to your iPhone again.

  • My touch screen has stopped working. what can i do to fix this

    what can I do to fix my touchscreen

    Rebooting your iDevice
    Hold down the Sleep (On-Off) and Home buttons together for about 10-15 seconds or until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears - then let go of the buttons. The device should begin to start up.
    If this doesn't work then make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

  • Firefox always crashes when I'm on a certain Yuku site. I don't have a problem with anyother site that I visit except for Yuku. What can I do to fix this problem?

    My computer does not have any viruses, I have already tried to uninstall and reinstall firefox, but I still get the same problem.
    After inquiring with an administrator on Yuku, they said the only reason would be a virus that may come through the adds on the site, but the specific page I visit on yuky is add-free.
    I don't know what to do. This does not occur with any other site that I visit.

    MY iPad says that I have authorized it too many times, how do I fix this problem?

    OverDrive has its own application for its media. See <http://omc.overdrive.com/v3-available-now/ios.php>. This has nothing to do with the Adobe Reader for iOS. Sorry!

  • I just got my new iPhone 16 days ago and when I try to download an app it always give me a message "Cannot connect to ITunes Store." What can I do to fix this?

    Please if anyone can help me help....

    Well folks I finally got my "can't connect to iTunes" issues fixed. Seems that there was an unauthorized change to my email address and account therefore not allowing mr to connect to iTunes.
    Here is how I got it fixed.
    1. Contacted iTunes store support
    2. Followed their instructions and replyed with the following info:
    An order number from one of my purchases
    Last 4 digits of the c.c. Used for the iTunes store acct
    Answer to one of my security questions
    And 2 items from this list.
    Birthdate
    Billing address for Acct
    Phone number on acct
    It was after all of this that they saw that someone had made an account modification back in February when the issue began. Seems they changed my email address just slightly and that is what kept me from being able to sign in and not a password issue. This was likely due to a phishing email that came out in conjunction with iCloud asking users to change their passwords to a more secure form by adding a capital and number.
    To get all of this cleared up it took about 4 days as we emailed back and forth. I also needed a seperate email address they could use to send me info. Once they determined the issues and went to get them fixed by changing the email address associated with the acct and I created a new password I was able to access iTunes with no issues and even my previously thought lost acct balance was there.
    Hope this helps

  • Since installing 10.7.3 my downloads say that I do not have enough space on my computer for the download. These downloads are never more that 200 megs or so and I have 270 Gigs left on my hard drive. What can I do to fix this?

    Since installing 10.7.3 my downloads say that I do not have enough space on my computer for the download. These downloads are never more that 200 megs or so and I have 270 gigs left on my hard drive. Somehow the remaining space on my hard drive is not being correctly read. What can I do to fix this? I have run permissions repair several times, but to no avail.

    Th downloads do not finish. I am dowloading to a file on my desktop called MUSIC, but it first starts to download to my desktop and then I move it to the MUSIC file also on my desktop and I have been doing this without incident using 10.7.2 as well as 10.7.1 and 10.7.

  • IDVD ejects dvd disc one minute early, before burning is completed. Why? What can I do to fix this?

    iDVD ejects the dvd disc one minute early, before burning is completed. Why? What can I do to fix this? I have checked project via mapping and there are no problems with it. I have previewed the entire project and it runs fine.

    Good morning,
    There could be a few reasons why the burn doesn't finish.  iDVD needs a lot of hard disk space to create the DVD -- 10-15 Gigs is starting to get low and under 5 G is virtually impossible.  Reduce the load on your Mac by quitting other applications while you're trying to burn.  Also, you may wish to break down your workflow into two steps (I do this routinely):
    1)  After you're satisfied in iDVD -- use the Save As Disc Image command rather than going directly to burn.  This creates a virtual DVD which you can mount and play on your Mac.
    2)  Second step creates the physical DVD from the disc image.  I use Roxio Toast to copy the disc image, but Apple's Disk Utility also works to burn the disc image.  Use good quality discs -- Verbatim is often recommended; I've been happy with Sony DVD-R as well.
    Here are more ideas:  https://discussions.apple.com/message/11269202#11269202

  • I spilled some pop on the back of my iPad. I cleaned it off and everything seems to be going good but when I play music it will either play with no sound or play then continue with no sound. What can I do to fix this (without being costly, it's a iPad 2)

What can I do to fix this (without being costly, it's a iPad 2) this happens with other music apps too. Please I need help!

    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists. If it doesn't work, there isn;t much anyone here can do for you. It may be a physical problem with your speakers.
