Only imports seconds a song...how to fix PLEASE!

This has happened before, but I don't remember how I fixed it...believe it or not!
anyway, i have a CD(bought from a store, not burned)that will not import or play properly on itunes. I hit the play button and it just keeps going from song to song without playing any of them. It also imports them that way. If I look in my library at the particular song it will show that it recorded 789:57:13. I don't get it and can't figure out how to change this to import the entire song.
by the way, every song, no matter the original length, comes up with this same time.
thanks!

I honestly thank you for your input, and ideas.. however I have some problems with some of your comments (see below). No hurry, I found a program that will rebuild scratched CD's (as best as they can be rebuilt), so I use the good copy to import into Itunes, eliminating the need to use I-tune's broken error correction option.
interesting. primarily we should be looking for
componentry issues that could affect both drives
then.
Why is it, when several people have the same or similar issues, support people look for problems with all their computers, and not look into the product itself?
since you've got a home built PC, you go directly to
the manufacturers of the various components to get
the latest updates. (although it also makes sense to
head to Windows Update to check to see if there are
any hardware updates lurking there ... that's
actually where i pick up most of the updates to
belladonna's third-party componentry.)
All of my components have been updated/upgraded with the exception of the LITEON drive, which, by the way is not normally used to import CD's into I-tunes, but the Sony (which is the newest firmware) is, and this problem happens on BOTH drives.
so head to the website of your Motherboard's
manufacturer to check to see if there are any updates
available for you BIOS or chipset drivers for your
make and model.
Done...
also head to NVidia's website to see if there are any
video driver updates available for your NVIDIA
GeForce 6200.
What on earth would cause you to think that my VIDEO card would cause one itsy bitsy optional function of the APPLE import (CD error correction)product to malfunction? Would the video firmware on an Apple computer cause such a problem?? Maybe I'll not buy one if that's the case.. That's kinda like saying "my tooth hurts, I'd better check the air in my tires on the car"
BUT.. I did it anyway.
the following document may be of some assistance:
Updating the drivers on your Windows PC
I am intimately familiar with updating/upgrading/PC's, Drivers, Firmware, building PC's, and supporting other PC's for 30 plus years.
if still no joy with importing with error correction
on, we'd better doublecheck on firmware for the
drives too.
both drives have had the firmware updated, and nope... NO JOY...
Lite-On does have a firmware available for
download for your LITE-ON LTR-16102B ...
unfortunately, there's no indication i can find of
whether that's a newer firmware revision than the one
you've already got. so it might be worth checking in
with Lite-On to see if it's a newer version or not.
i can't find any links at Sony for your SONY DVD RW
DW-Q30A (although i could find ones for your
old Sony model). but it might still be worth
contacting Sony support to see if there's a newer
firmware than the Rev YYC1 that you currently have.
I'm beginning to think that someone doesn't want to even look at the I-tunes product, to possibly see if maybe, JUST MAYBE there may be a problem with it?? OR... even perhaps the documentation (documentation?, documentation?, WHAT documentation???) might not be correct or perhaps incomplete?
Still NO JOY when trying to use the error correction when importing a badly damaged CD.
Thanks Again
OH, and to the other fella that said that "using error correction on a good CD may fail"... holy moley... please explain how the program would FAIL if it finds NO errors... in technical terms, please.

  • My iPad keeps locking itself every few seconds, any ideas how to fix it... Drives me mad having to put my pass code in all the time and the screen keeps going blank :( HELP!

    My iPad keeps locking itself every few seconds, any ideas how to fix it... Drives me crazy as the screen keeps going blank and I have to constantly put in my pass code every few seconds. Can someone help me out please. The pass code lock is set at 10 minutes but it's happening every few seconds :(

    I've run into the issue and it seems to be related to an app not fully supporting the iOS you're on, the reboot doesn't usually solve it.
    I've solved it in the following manner(s):
    1) Backup the device to iCloud, then erase the iPad (Content and Network Settings).
    2) Setup the iPad and choose to restore from iTunes/iCloud Backup (wherever you backed it up)
    3) Perform any software updates
    I have not tried simply performing the software updates (which may fix it, but if it doesn't you won't be able to perform the above steps).
    Enjoy.

  • Phone won't send or email videos!! They are only 10 seconds long! How do I fix or change it so I can share my videos!

    I'm trying to send videos via text and email with my LG G2 and it keeps saying attachment size is exceeding its limit but the video is only 10 seconds long! That's a little ridiculous! How do i fix it or change it so that it will send?!

    Send from within the messaging app.  Don't record then send from share option inside gallery. Videos are recorded at HD most likely.  But inside the stock messaging app quality is reduced to shrink file size. You can also record from camera at a lower resolution in settings then send from gallery share option.

  • Why are my imported songs from my CD's only 15 seconds each song??

    all my cd's that I have imported, all the songs come out to 15 seconds or lower. I can never get the full length song, what am i doing wrong?

    I have got the same problem but cannot find a solution as yet have you had any luck as yet.

  • Only imports parts of songs

    I just bought Death Magnetic and am trying to import it into iTunes 8 (recently downloaded). Whenever I try, however, only part of certain songs are actually imported. In addition, changing the type of file to import them as (ex. AAC or MP3) affects how the songs are displayed in my library.
    For example, importing the album in AAC format lists all the songs in my library, but only 4 of the tracks play for no more than a minute or so each while the rest have a time of 789:57:13. Importing the album in MP3 format only displays the 4 tracks that were partially imported.
    Is this copy-protection on the CD itself or a problem with iTunes 8, and how can either be fixed?

    Well, you're lucky. At least your machine sees the CD. Mine just spits it back out at me.

  • Files/folders created in Windows share are read-only... why and how to fix?

    Client: MacBook Pro running 10.7.5
    Server: Windows 7 desktop
    I'm sharing a folder from the Windows 7 machine and mounting it on my Mac using Finder's "Connect to Server..." and an smb:// URI. I'm providing a user ID/password for an account on the Windows 7 box that has full control over the shared folder, via smb://userid:password@server/share.
    The volume mounts properly on my desktop, can I can see files/folders there as expected. However:
    If I create a folder, it's read-only. I cannot create any files inside (or even see inside), rename the folder, or delete the folder. The folder has a badge: red circle with bar.
    If I create a file, it's read-only. I cannot rename it, delete it or edit it.
    If I examine File Info via Finder on any of these files or folders, under Sharing & Permissions it says "You have custom access."
    If I try to delete these files/folders, I get error code -8072. I can delete them from the command-line, but I can't otherwise manipulate them.
    I've verified on the Windows box that the user ID I'm using has full control of the folder. I've also set it so Everyone has full control, with no difference.
    This seems to have been a recent change in behaviour (a few weeks ago I was copying data to this drive, no problem), and it's driving me crazy because I can't figure out how to fix it.

    L145:
    It is always good counsel to Repair Disk Permissions (from the internal HDD) before and after any new installation.
    To change permissions in our Applications Folder:
    Select Applications Folder.
    Get Info (Command + i)
    Go down to Ownership & Permissions
    Click on arrow next to Details to expand.
    Click on lock and authenticate
    Owner is system
    Group is admin
    Change all permissions to Read & Write except Others
    Other can Read only.
    Please do not hesitate to post back should you have any further questions or comments.

  • Itunes songs play only thirty seconds of song

    I bought bout thirty or more songs from itunes and all of them only play about thirty seconds of the song before going to the next song. I tried deauthorizing my computer and reauthorizing it. Does anyone know anything to fix this?

    Does the song play in Quicktime Player?  If it does then it is an iTunes issue.  If it doesn't then it is possible the file was not completely downloaded, or is corrupt.
