My video download gets about 2/3 of the way through, stops, and starts over

My video download gets about 2/3 of the way through, stops, and starts over (as if I had never downloaded anything). I have DSL, and it's the only video downloading. Why does it stop and start all over again, over and over? It's really bumming out my iTunes experience. Oh, and I'm running XP, not XPpro.

Let it go... these DL's take forever, depending on the spped of your connection and the traffic on the servers.
If by morning it is still sitting there restart and the DL should pick up from where it left off.

HT1725 I downloaded an album and all of the tracks will play about 3/4 of the song then stop and play the next song. I went to itunes store and it said the songs fully downloaded. So how do I get the full song into my library?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the 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.

If you are using Windows, disable any firewall and antivirus software temporarily while you try again.

Hey Guys, I have a IMAC G5 and I just uploaded Ilife 08 to it, the problem is, when I create a DVD it sounds good until I burn it. About 1/4 of the way through it the sound stops.. What's going on with it? Is it the encoding proocess?? I'm stumped...

Hi
A. iMovie'08 to 11 are not the tools of choice if one aim to do a DVD as they all discard the quality of the picture by discarding every second line in it. NO way around this due to that it happens between Event's and Project's so as soon as it is being edited - Quality is lost.
B. I use iMovie HD6 or FinalCut
C. if iM'08 to 11 is a must - THEN DO NOT - Share to iDVD - BUT - "Share to Media Browser" and as Large (or ev. Medium)
THEN DO - Save as a DiskImage and see that this plays OK and ALL SOUND
D. if added audio from iTunes - then instead in iTunes - Collect all needed Audio into a NEW PlayList then BURN this as an Audio-CD (.aiff - NOT .mp3 or other) - Then use the Files on this CD in Your Movie Project's (I do)
E. I only use .aiff audio - 48kHz 16-bit (miniDV tape Camera) or 44.1kHz Audio CD - NEVER .mp3 or .wma or other file format - ALL is converted first into .aiff - ALWAYS ! - I have very few problem with Audio in my projects in iMovie or FinalCut !

I have OS X 10.5.8 on my iMac, I'm trying to install Snow Leopard. When I insert the disk and click install it will start to install, then once it gets about 1/4 of the way done my computer restarts and it spits the disk back out.

I have OS X 10.5.8 on my iMac, I'm trying to install Snow Leopard. When I insert the disk and click install it starts, but when its about 1/4 of the way done the computer restarts and my disk spits back out. When I look to see if it installed it still says 10.5.8. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac6.1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
I bought the Mac OS X Snow Leopard Install DVD from the Apple Store.

Previously downloaded songs stop and start over during re-download.

I have several questions, and I'm hoping that someone can help me out with at least one of them. I have a 4th generation iPod Touch, and recently I had to start syncing to another computer after all of the USB ports on my computer stopped working out of nowhere (help on that issue would also be appreciated). Everything seemed to be working fine, I was manually managing my music and burned some CDs to transfer to my iPod. They transferred smoothly, and then afterwards I moved all of the tracks on the computer onto an external hard drive and deleted them from iTunes because the memory was getting too full. I hadn't even plugged the iPod back in or synced it wirelessly after that, but out of nowhere all of the music from the CDs and 78 tracks that I purchased on the iPod just deleted. I got all but one of the purchased songs back, and with that one, when I re-download it the meter fills almost all the way and starts over (this is all being done from the iPod itself). It has been doing this for several hours. In attempt to move all of the music from the CDs back, I took the music from the external hard drive and manually moved it to my iPod through iTunes. When I look at the iPod in iTunes, it appeared as if all of my music was back. On the device, however, the CDs still weren't there. I eventually gave up hope and ejected my iPod, only to realize that some of my music purchased on the iPod had lost its cover art. In effort to fix this (and this has worked before), I erased all of said songs and started to re-download from the Purchased list in iTunes (on the device). Now, all of the songs in the process of being re-downloaded have a gray music note next to them in the Downloads list and either say "Download error", act like the song mentioned earlier, or do nothing at all. I really just want my purchased music back, so if you know anything about the issue or have experienced something similar, please help me!

I suggest for you to add all the songs to your iTunes library. Once everything is in place, sync it to your iPod. You may also try wireless syncing as well.

HT4889 I am using migration assistant from my old macbook pro to my new imac, but it seems to have stuck about 1/3 of the way through. Any suggestions??

Both are on the latest version of MacOS (made sure I had them completely up to date before starting).
Laptop and imac are connected via ethernet cable. Has been stuck for at least 2 hours showing "About 3 hours and 12 minutes remaining". Not sure what to do??

Disconnect and connect your Ethernet cable. If the migration doesn't continue, restart both Macs and start the transfer again. Wi-Fi and Ethernet are slow so I don't recommend you to use it unless it's the only option you have

Some of my newly downloaded songs will not pay all the way through, they just skip to the next song

I just recently downloaded two new cds on iTunes and not all the songs, but a few of them will not play all the way out. It will play and then just skip to the next song! How can I fix it????

Hey ronserickson,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the songs do not play completely. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.

I have converted most of my windows media files to itunes. However I had to close it down about 3 quarters of the way through. It then processed the album art. How can I convert the files that it didn't finish doing the first time? thanks

Hi there,
hope you can help me. I helped my sister convert her window media files to itunes and set up an account for her. Unfortunately her computer is really slow and it was really late and we had to turn it off. It processed some of the album art for the files that it had converted. However, some songs were not converted and because there was quite a few left, I don't really know which ones did not get converted as I selected all of the folders. How do I find out which ones I have left to convert and put the rest of the songs onto itunes for her please? Or are they on the itunes still as they showed up initially on itunes in the list to be converted.
Thank you!

You could convert them all again and then dedupe, or use a Windows search to reveal all the WMA files and then try to work out which still need to be converted. If you're lucky iTunes would have processed the imports in alphabetical path order so it would just be a matter of working out where it had got up to...

My iphone 3gs won't allow me to enter my email password. The acct is all greyed out in the settings menu and now I can't get email. I restored the phone through iTunes and did a hard reboot but nothing helped!!

I changed the password on my Yahoo mail account and now the phone will not let me enter the new password. The mail account is greyed out in the settings menu.

Try deleting the account and set up a new one. Also make sure to not sync the phone with old email settings.

When downloading Windows Support Software from BCA, download freezes at about a sixth of the way

When I download the Windows Support Software from BCA, the progress bar freezes at about a sixth of the way through. I took my MBP to the genius bar, and they told me I should use a USB drive instead of a DVD, but even when I use a USB the problem persists. I've even tried saving it straight to my Windows Partition, and the same thing happens. I've seen many people with a similar problem, but instead of getting something like "The Windows Support Software is not available", my download just freezes. I tried to uncheck "Auto Proxy Discovery" in system preferences, but it already was. I also heard you could use the drivers on the SL installation disc, but I have a late 2011 MBP, which came with Lion, so I don't have an install disc. Does anybody else have the same problem or a solution? Any help would be appreciated.

Oops, sorry. I meant to say Release Preview, not Consumer Preview
Like I said before, the progress bar just freezes when I do what http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4407 says. Also, that article was for an MBA late 2010, but I have an MBP 8,2 (late 2011). I don't think that makes a difference, though. The only thing I actually need the drivers for is for the wifi card, which W8 RP doesn't seem to detect. I tried looking for BCM4331 drivers on the internet, but apparently, broadcom doesn't let you download their drivers, but anyways, thanks for the reply.
This is exactly where the download always freezes, about a sixth of the way through:

TS3297 I bought an album, two of the twelve songs play about half the way through, then stop, and then the next song in line starts playing. How do I get the songs downloaded so they play to the end?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
