My songs only play for 6 seconds

My imported music is only playing for six seconds then going to the next track. All of my purchased music works fine though. The imported files also play in their entirety on Windows Media Player so I know it's not the files' fault. Any suggestions?

Sure your gone for the day, but no luck. Still get 15 sec and then on to the next song.

Try Deleting it from your device, then download again from purchase history.
Hope this helps

Hi bholdrofjustice,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You may want to delete the song that doesn't play, and download it again using the steps in this article:

If the song still skips after 8 seconds, you can report an issue with your purchase:

HT1725 i downloaded an album and one song only plays for 3 seconds and then skips to the next song. I can't get it to re-download either. What am I supposed to?

This is the second time that I've downloaded an album and one song off of it will play for 3 seconds and then skip to the next song. I've tried everything under the iTunes help and nothing has worked. Any ideas?

Why can't you delete it and redownload it?
If still problem contact iTunes

Song only plays for 5 Seconds

Downloaded a song from album but only plays 5 seconds of song, How do i fix this

I have had this problem for quite awhile. Sometimes the preview plays all the way through, or not. I had it in the previous version and now the new version. There is no help from Apple/iTunes. It seems odd that WE must continue to try and find the solution to THEIR errors without any comments or help from Apple.

Songs only play for 10 seconds. What do I do?

I bought some music on my phone. I hooked my phone to my computer and the new songs started downloading into my library on my computer. A message popped up saying there was a problem downloading some of the songs. There was an exclamation point inside a circle next to those songs. At the time there was a cloud with a down arrow next to those songs so I clicked them to re-download the songs. They finished downloading and I synced my phone to my computer. I tried to play those songs, and they play for about 10 seconds or less and then stop. There aren't any cloud symbols next to the songs on my computer or my phone even though I have it checked to show purchases in the cloud. What do I do to fix my songs? They were playing fine before I downloaded them onto my computer. I'm running iTunes 11.1.4.

Hey rjfdlf,
That definitely sounds frustrating. If the songs are not playing fully, they may need to be redownloaded. To redownload them, you'll want to delete them from your library. See the following article:
Songs in iTunes may not play back completely
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4357
Symptoms
Occasionally, if a song purchased from the iTunes Store on a Mac or PC was not downloaded completely, the song may not play back fully. The song may abruptly stop during playback, and iTunes may start playing the next song in your library or playlist.
Resolution
If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, try the following steps to resolve the issue:
1. Delete the purchased song that is exhibiting the problem from your iTunes library.
2. Click on the Purchased link in the iTunes Store to view your previously purchased music.
3. Download your previously purchased song from this list.
Note: iTunes in the Cloud, which allows you to download previously purchased songs from the iTunes Store, is not available in every country. Learn if iTunes in the Cloud is offered in your country
Thanks,
Matt M.

I recently bought an album and one of the songs only plays for 3 seconds. Anything I can do without rebuying the song again?

I bought an album recently and one of the songs that got downloaded doesnt play all the way, it only plays the first 3 seconds. But I havent fully downloaded the album on my itunes, does that have something to do with it? Anyway I can fix that without paying the song over.

Sounds like a corrupt / damaged download
If you live in a Region that allows re-downloading Music...
Delete the Song(s) and re-download...

TS1362 downloaded two albums songs only play for 45 seconds and moves to the next one. happened to two albums downloaded on the same day need help

downloaded two albums on the same day will play only 45 seconds of a song and goes to the next song on both albums need help

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.

Music only plays for 15 seconds and then goes to another song

I upgraded to ios 6. Since then, my old songs only play for 15 seconds. Anything purchased after the upgrade, plays the whole song. Anyone ????

Sure your gone for the day, but no luck. Still get 15 sec and then on to the next song.

Can't import songs and ones in library only play for 45 seconds

I'm in the process of moving my music collection to a new computer with a bigger hard drive. I installed the latest version of iTunes on the new computer, copied all the folders and contents of the itunes folder to the new computer in the same location.
I bought a couple new songs successfully but now I can't add any of the files from my previous computer to the new library. I was able to import a few songs that iI purchased when on my original machine but now they only play for 45 seconds and jump to the next song in the playlist (if check) And now when I drag and drop songs on the Library to import them absolutely nothing happens.
And yes, the new computer is authorized and the permissions on the folders are read / write.
Any one have an idea of how to fix this? If not, I just going to burn all my songs to CD and import them that way and say so long to iTunes... just too much BS to just move a music library!

Sounds like the PC's authroization file is messed up, or else the iTUnes preferences files.
Follow the directions in this article, the SC Info file holds the PC authroization for iTMS songs.
iTunes Does Not Open After Upgrading
And also deleted these 2 preferecnes files:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
They will all get rebuilt when you open iTunes the next time. It should ask for authorization one last time, is all.
