Playlist will only play a few songs then stop.

After upgrading to ITunes 7.0, my playlist will stop playing after a few songs. Ihave to Restart the playlist everytime. Inever had this problem with the previous versions of ITunes.. What can I do to have all the songs in my play list play without stopping?

I've had the same thing, definately seems like a small bug. Bizarrely with mine it only does it sometimes, but it seems that when it reaches the last song in the playlist (as in the one at the bottom) it treats that as if it is the last song to be played regardless of the shuffle feature.
Haven't managed to overcome it yet, but it's rarely a problem for me to just press play again

Does any of this mean mean anything regarding the problem?
All it shows is that the tracks SHOULD be OK.
Next thing to try is to restore her shuffle in iTunes and reload.

Upgraded to IOS5, now music doesnt work right, displayed song not playing, plays 3,4 songs then stops although is appears to be playing. Help

upgraded to IOS5, now music not working right. displayed song not playing, plays 4,5 songs and stops although it appears that it is playing. Cycled pwr,didn't work. tried resyncing, same thing.Help?

I have an iPhone 4 and ever since I upgraded to iOS5 i've got the same problem. Apple need to release a patch as there's no way of fixing this unless we downgrade our phones back to iOS4 which would just suck!
I often shut the music app down and start again but even then the artwork doesn't match the song playing and will only play a few songs. It's frustrating when you're driving or going for a run, having to pull over or stop and sort it out.
We'll have to wait for Apple to bring out a patch unfortunately.

My i pod classic will only download a few songs

My i pod classic will only download a few song. Any ideas on what to do?

- If you go to the playing screen, is Repeat on? It is the racetrack icon on the left side of the screen right below the scrubber bar. Tap the icon until it is white to turn repeat off.
- Next try unsyncing/resyncing the music.
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod

Apple TV will only play the first song on an album, why?

When I press play on an album (music), Apple TV only play the first song, then it stops. Why?? I can understand it when I press play on a spesific song/track, but when I press play on an entire album, I want Apple TV to play the entire album.

You need to put checkmarks in front of all your music.

My IPod will only play the same song in the playlist. What is happening?

My Ipod will only play one song (over and over) in a play list. It was workig fine and then all of a sudden it continues to repeat. Please help.

Go to settings on the ipod itself and make sure on the option Repeat, it doesn't say "One". If it does, click on it until it's says "All" or "Off" - depending on what you prefer. If it isn't on repeat, reset it -if you haven't already; but that's usually everyone's first instinct when there's a problem so I assume you already have. If none of this works, you may have to restore it. If restoring it is something you want to leave as an absolute last resort, go to an apple store or something and ask a professional.
Hope this helps

HELP...only playing a few songs

I use my ipod on a daily basis and when I have it on shuffle it only plays about 15 songs out of the 250 I have on it. How can I fix this problem? Please let me know ASAP! Thanks

this happened to mine too! i took it in to the apple store and what the girl said was that you have to individually drag each song over to your ipod when its plugged in because some of the songs that you have may be defected, whether it be from downloading elsewhere or just a defective song. But you drag them over and if you dont see the song transferring on top where the song information usually is when it plays, then its a defective song and you have to delete it. Its a pain in the butt at first, but then its better once it over and done with. By the way, you have to click "manually transfer" on the screen when you click on your ipod or it wont work. Just do this with every song, and itll be good to go!

Playlist in shuffle plays only (the same) 5 songs, then stops

One of my playlists in iTunes in shuffle plays the same 5 songs (out of 83) and then stops. If I uncheck those 5, and start with another, it plays that song and stops. I've tried deleting the playlist and recreating it, both in Smart form and not, all with identical results. I've tried unchecking and re-checking songs, no help. Putting the playlist on "Repeat all" does not help (it just repeats the 5). Playing without shuffle works fine.
My other playlists seem to be fine. Thanks for any ideas!

Select all the songs.
Right click - get info. Tick *Skip when shuffling* and set to No then Apply.

HT4623 What's with audio xciter, it only plays a few songs, ones that it won't gives me a message ,upgrade to iTunes plus, what's with that, oh, it ALso says the music is drm protected, upgrade to iTunes plus?

Anyone know what's wrong with audio xciter? It tells me to upgrade to iTunes plus, what's that?when I play my music, it plays a few but wont others because it's drm protected, maybe wrong word and tells me to upgrade to iTunes plus, think I bought junk software!

I am seeing the same thing. 95% of my songs are DRM protected -according this app. But they are not. Hopefully someone has an aswer. The web page support for Xciter does not mention this issue.

My ipod touch will only play the same song over and over unless you manually fast forward?

My ipod touch will not shuffle through the songs. It just plays the same song over and over. All that shows at the top is the info picture. How do I fix this?

Do this:
Play a song.
Tap the screen once so you see the scrubber.
To the left of the scrubber, there's a set of two arrows going in a circle - if it's blue, it's set to repeat.
Click on it once to make it white - no repeat.

I've strugglig with this damned thing all night, first I had the "folder !" then I had the "blinking apple", now I have that all worked out its time to put music back on right?(Ive updated and restored god knows how many times) WRONG! Like a kick to the kidneys, the ipod updates something like 8 or 9 songs then tells me the update is finished. after wasting my sweet time, like 20 minutes for 8-9 songs, those dont even stay on the ipod. what the hells wrong?

Make sure you don't have the Manually manage music and videos box check on the Summary tab

HT5649 When I am playing radio it only plays for a time then stops. This is when I am using it on my iPhone 4s.Is there something I am missing to have this keep happening? It doesn't cut off on the computer like it does on the phone. I am able to switc

I am new to the iPhone 4s but do enjoy the radio from iTunes. I like to listen with a headset but it seems to cut off after playing a bit. I can change stations and it will again play for a while and yet again stop. I am puzzled as to why this is. It doesn't do this if I play off the computer. I think I am doing something wrong but have no idea what? I am a bit "tech" challenged so any advise would be appreciated.

Hello LindaHarp,
It sounds like you are listening to iTunes Radio and it stops shortly after you start listening. I recommend starting by signing out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes & App Stores. Then close all the running apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that and restart the phone and test the issue by signing back in to your account, and testing again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

Movies will only partially download on iPad then stops

Ipad2 rental movies will only partially download, always get a retry icon(attempted approx 10 different networks)
Have tried on several wireless networks.
Strange because have been able to download 2 other rentals with success.
Additionally, 1 movie get running after 30 minutes, and then just stopped
Quick time has checked out in a test
Any suggestions?

See if any of the following fix it :
- close the iTunes store app via the multitasking bar and see if you can redownload the film when you re-open it : double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag the iTunes store app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
- a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
- turn Settings > iTunes & App Store > Videos (under 'show all') 'on' and see if the film then shows in the Videos app with the cloud icon for downloading.
