My songs play 10 seconds then switch to the next

My itunes is yacked!  My songs and or videos play about 10 seconds then automatically switch to the next song. I synced and now my ipod does too!  I have looked everywhere and cant figure it out!  HELP!

I found that removing them from my iTunes library, then re-adding them, solved the problem. No idea why this should be happening though; the 30-second bit is surprising, and I wonder if it has something to do with 30-second previews that are available on some web sites. Perhaps there's some sort of marker in the file, and iTunes interprets it as the end of the file. But why re-adding them fixed the issue, I know not.

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads with the same problem then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • HT1349 Songs stop halfway through and switch to the next song

    In iTunes some of my songs stop a little more then halfway and then switch to the next song how can I stop this from doing that ?

    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.

    Go back to the App Store app and find the app you're having problems with. Then look in the description for the contact info for the developer. You might also find an email link within the settings of the app. Contact the developer to find out if they are working on this issue.

    Does this only happen with the tracks you have downloaded from the iTunes Store?  Perhaps you should work the suggestions in this Apple support document first.

  • All my songs in my itunes only play for 5 seconds then goes to the next song. what is wrong and can i fix it?

  • Why do some of the songs only play half way, then skip to the next song?

    I just got the ipod shuffle and am enjoying it very much, except that a few songs won't play all the way through. I tried them on my computer and they WILL play there, BUT I notice they have a kind of crackle, like the download got interupted. Is that making them "Skip" like a scratched record? And what do I do about it?
    thanks,
    pauline

    If those are purchased tracks (from ITS) then this is an old problem, and a continuing one.
    The two most common fixes are either to work through ITS Support and get different copies of those tracks (they will never work correctly on the Shuffle as they are, and might actually get worse with time), or go through a process of burning those tracks off to a CD and then reimporting them back into iTunes.
    Both of these have been discussed at length in these and other forums. Search for those threads and see what you want to try.

  • Itunes plays song for 10 seconds then skips to next song and so on....

    Hey Everyone
    I recently acquired a macbook (love it). However I have one issue, I imported all my music off my windows formatted ipod, and then formatted my Ipod for Mac. Everything plays fine, however I have one major issue. Some (not all) of the songs in itunes play for about 10 seconds and then jump to the next song. if I skip ahead past this 10 second barrier, the song plays fine . This happens on my itunes as well as my ipod.
    Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated

    now when i play back in itunes (v10.6.1)
