  • My recently purchased songs wont play, popup says unable to locate

    my recently purchased songs wont play in itunes, album grafics keep disappearing, pop up says original file could not be found. Also my ipod freezes up when I try to play these songs on it.

    Hello musiccc
    That means that iTunes cannot find the file to play. The article below will assist with finding the files on your computer. If they are not on your computer, then delete them in iTunes so you can download those purchases again.

  • Songs wont play fully

    few of my songs on ipod wont play fully they play for few seconds and then next song is selected to play. why is that?

    Hi J.E.L.,
    No one knows for sure what causes this but there are some workarounds...Try #3 first as it is the easiest.
    #1 Delete those songs from itunes and re-rip them from the CD into itunes and sync your ipod.
    #2 Convert those songs into another format. Adjust your settings however you wish in Itunes > Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Importing. Choose whatever format and settings you like then, Right-Click on the song(s) and "Convert Selection To XXX", where XXX is the format you've selected. Sync and try it.
    NOTE: Doing this method degrades the sound quality of the file(s) as you're essentially making a copy of a copy. Whether it is acceptable to your ears or not is up to them.
    #3 This workaround has helped some. If they're unprotected MP3 files then, using itunes, strip them of their ID3 Tags. Right Click on the song(s), click "Convert ID3 Tags", click "None". Then, do it all over again only this time, choose a version, usually v2.3. Sync and try it.
    NOTE: Stripping them of their ID3 Tags will delete the artwork and lyrics of the associated songs, but they are easily replaceable.

  • My Most recently purchased songs wont play

    So after updating my phone to iOS 6.1, my 3 newest songs wont play. These songs were purchased from iTines so it shouldnt be a licensing or format issue. The song shows up on my phone, but when i press it to play it, it skips to the next song. When i connect my phone to my computer and look under songs on iphone, its not there, but it is in the library. Because its not listed on my phone, i cant delete it to re-download it. Also, look at the attached picture, youll notice the song becuse its grey and has a ring next to it. What does it mean and how can i fix it.

  • Iphone ringtones, original songs wont play fully

    Hi,
    I have several of my songs in Itunes as ringtones, which I managed to do by downloading an ap to convert them. They work great as ringtones but problem is the original songs in Itunes wont play fully, they start wherever you have the ringtone starting on the track and end when the ringtone does, therefore never fully playing a track.
    Any suggestions how I can keep my ringtones but also still get the songs to play fully when I listen to my ipod on the Iphone.
    The Ap I used is just called "Ringtones" but is blue with a yellow star.
    Many thanks

    i have done quite a bit of searching on this forum and i cannot seem to find a recommended solution that i did not already see on the apple support site. which is why i posted. obviously its nearly impossible to look through all the questions to find ALL the listed solutions, so if somebody could offer one that is not already listed on the apple site (since i have already tried all of them), i would really appreciate it.

  • Single song wont play/add to itunes

    Just recently a song wouldnt play when I played it with itunes..after messing around with it trying to fix it i removed it from the library and the .mp3 file wont even add to the itunes library now. Im using vista and ive checked all the security problems and such..It is a song i used to play frequently so im stumped as to why it would randomly stop? If i double click the song it will open itunes but will not play and does not add it to the library. Any ideas?

  • Purchased songs not showing up in iTunes or iPod

    I have purchased many songs from iTunes, both on my computer and on my iPhone over the past year or so.  However, only some of them are showing up in iTunes and iPod.  I have receipts still from iTunes stating that I paid and purchased them and they were even in my library and on my iPod for some time but I went to listen to a couple of songs yesterday and couldn't find them anywhere; both browsing for the song and the artist.  I went to my computer to see if they where there to re-sync but they were not in my library either.  I'm not sure what happened to them as I haven't done anyting different.  I tried restarting my iPhone and, closing and reopening iPod and even rebooting the computer, still nothing.  I have red some threads stating that you should change the language to French, did that, still nothing.  I'm not sure what the issue is but I have proof that I paid for the songs but they are no longer around.  I'm very frustrated!  Any help would be great.
    I've also been experiencing issues with updating the software.  Sometimes I get a timed out error which is odd since I have an internet connection with no issues.  It gets all the way to the end and won't complete.  I try two or three times and give up and then the next day I may try again and it will work without issues.  I have the iPhone 4 and have software update 4.3.2 but have not successfully done the 4.3.3 yet as I keep getting the update error and it's driving me insane!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated! 
    Thanks!

  • Recently purchased songs wont play

    hi can anyone help,
    i recently upgraded i tunes which seamed fine and purchased 5 songs from i tunes played them that day and they were fine.
    next time i used i tunes and ever since when i click on those 5 songs itunes thinks it is playing them (the play count goes up) but it takes about 8 secconds to run through all 5 songs??
    all the other stuff from i tunes i got before the upgrade works fine.

    Also i have noticed that me shopping cart now reads "total^1 applicable sales tax"
    what does this mean and are they related??
    thanks

  • Purchased Song numbers different on PC iTunes and iPod Touch

    Im having problems with the speaker on my ipod touch and apple support has suggested I reformat my ipod.
    I purchase music directly from both by ipod and PC iTunes using the same account.
    However when I look at my purchased number of songs from my ipod it says 194.
    My iTunes in the PC says 150.
    If I reformat my iPod I will lose the extra 44 songs. Is there a way to have these appear in my PC iTunes so I can restore them to my iPod after I format it.
    Please advise.

    e mac unable to find external hard drives
    Posted: Jul 14, 2010 7:04 AM Reply Email
    I recently tried to move the contents of a full external drive to a new larger external drive. while doing this I lost around 4000 tunes. So I have been trying to locate them, some found in the strangest places on the main hard drive? Then two nights ago I lost the new hard drive in finder, quickly followed by the old external hard drive. I turned everything off, then on repaired permisions etc. Replugged everything back in, but no Hard drives showing either in finder or disc utility?
    A good friend and fellow musician, took the drives away to see if they would work with his macs of differing vintages. They dont appear on any of his machines. When I spoke to him today he told me that his own external hard drive had vanished from his mac. Is something going on? An update from Apple we dont know about? Are any of you experiencing a similar problem. Both these external drives were working perfectly one minute then gone the next!
    Even though my i tunes library is gone on one of my drives. I plugged my i pod in and created a new library, it was recognised!
    Please help!

  • Some purchased songs are not transferring from itunes to ipod even others from the same album did.

    Originally the songs were only partially downloaded. After completing the downloads to itunes it was suggested to de authorize the computer and then authorize the computer. Still unable to transfer to classic ipod. Even tried resetting ipod.
    Any suggestions?

    yeah, a little box comes up that says "the file ------ is not supported by the ipod" or some blah like that, and then theres this little button with a plus sign that you can click on and right next to it says 'see 181 total problems" and then it gives you a list of the things that didnt transfer. other than that, everything is fine.(well except for the fact that my music isnt transferring, of course.) its kinda new-ish, i got it in july, and its worked fine until now.

  • Purchased songs with old AOL account, itunes won't play them, nor copy them

    Years ago, I used my old AOL account name as my Apple/itunes login, and purchased several songs. Since then, I've changed my Apple ID, and songs I've purchased using that login play fine on my Mac, and transfer to my ipod/iphone. However, songs I purchased with the old AOL login will not sync to ipod/iphone, and when I try to play them in itunes, it comes up with "Computer is not authorized to play. Would you like to authorize", and it has my AOL name, and it asked me to enter the password (which I remember), so I enter it, but after i enter it, it says "You need to change your account to use an Apple ID." But I already have an Apple ID. Long question short: How do I make it so my old AOL purchased songs will play on my iTunes and ipod?

    I was referring to the online music store. I googled and found this contact:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
    You should also be able to log into your account on find some means of contact or a Report a Problem link from the account or an e-mail receipt (if you still have one).
