Red square with cirlce . songs wont play ?

I was listening to my music on my iTunes with my iPod plugged in and then all the sudden the music stop playing. when i tried to replay it , the exclamation mark was next too it . all my songs are unrepurchased from iTunes & my songs that i had are not in my iTunes nor are they on the computer (after i download a song i delete) all though i still have a couple . How can i recover these songs because i really would hate to have to delete EVERYTHINGGG then re download every song .

[[UPDATE]] SOLVED - I've restarted both my computer and my phone and tried to re-drop in that one song that was coming up light grey. It's now sinced and playing on Itunes and is the ONLY song on my phone. No more exclamation mark or red square.
Looks like I'm going to have to delete all the songs and replace them into my itunes.
*sigh*
Thank you Apple for this smooth, easy going update. Much appreciated.

I upgraded my iPhone5s to iOS8 Most of my iTunes songs wont play I get a red square in a circle

I upgraded my iPhone5s to iOS8 Most of my iTunes songs wont play I get a red square in a circle on the right side. This is maddening!!

iCloud is free, iTunes match is $25 a year.
I had the same problem and when I went to Settings I had 0 songs, even though they were obviously still there since I only had 15GB free on my 64GB device.
I decided to do a complete reset/restore of my 4th gen iPod Touch, Bad move! I've been messing with it for hours, and it simply won't restore--it keeps hanging on a black screen with an Apple logo and a progress bar at about 10%, sometimes it goes completely blank and tries again, with the same result. (I've posted my question/plea for help here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19735862 )
I'm ready to bang my head against the wall! I can put the device in recovery mode, connect to iTunes on my computer, and get it back to the setup screen, but when I go through the process again and try to do an iCloud backup I get the same reset/restore loop.
I could start from scratch, but I really, really, really don't want to go through all of my hundreds of apps, reinstall them one by one, etc. etc. etc.
I thought that once I started using iCloud, I didn't need to sync with iTunes anymore--guess I was wrong.

Red square with circle, grey exclamation point AND iTunes won't sinc new songs?

I have just upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 7.0.3 and for some reason my music on my phone will not play. Every song comes up with a red square with a red circle around it and simply will not play. Looking on iTunes now - every time I try to play a song a grey exclamation point with a grey circle pops up next to the song and again WILL NOT PLAY!
I've heard that it iTunes might be having trouble finding the source of the song (which its never had trouble doing before) so I deleted one song and tried to replace it back on there only to find that it is now not sincing new songs either! This new song is very light grey in colour and has the spotted circle next to it.
I don't even know where to start fixing these problems.
Additional Information:
I have my phone set up to Sinc only checked songs and videos.
I drag and drop my songs into the 'On this iPhone' heading rather than sicing the whole thing as I share this computer with my brother.
Am I going to have to downgrade my iOS back to what it was?
I really hope someone out there can help!

Circle with red square behind every song

On my iphone there's music but behind every song is a circle with a red square and it won't play.
Any help out there?

What is the red circle/square?
What app is it showing in?
Please provide pictures of this.
The only red circle I know of that shows in iOS7 is when the camera is in Video record mode.

How do I get rid of a red square with a red circle around on my playlist on my iPhone 4S?

How do I get rid of this red square with the red circle? It only shows on the right side of the song on my playlist and the song won't play. My playlist now skips 10/12songs before it plays another. When I checked iTunes on my computer there is nothing changed on the playlist. I downloaded the latest iTunes and synced the phone again but still nothing. I do not want to have to restore and do this all again. Help.

SONG WONT PLAY ON ITUNES

on march 24th i believe or recently i purchased the new KIP MOORE CD. and it is amazing. and been listening to it non stop ever since. well just last night when i was listening to the cd on my ipod i realized the first song kept getting skipped. so when i got home i got on itunes and clicked it. the pop up came up saying you are not authorized to play this song. so i signed in. and it tells me that i my computer is already autherized. and skips to the next song. so i was reading and i read to deauthorized everything i did that. and still same thing. so what do i need to do now. is there some way to fix this. ... now i did download it last night to my laptop. and it plays but on my iPod and main computer the song wont play at all. wont even burn to a cd to listening to it.. please help me. i wouldnt mind if it was a song that sucked but it is an amazing song. thanks.

ap, have you moved the song files on your computer that have the exclamation point next to them? Try playing them in iTunes and see if a window doesn't come up asking you to locate the file. Also, there might be something wrong with the song file that is keeping iTunes from syncing it to your iPod. Do all these songs have something in common that you might recognize?

9 songs wont play

Hi... just bought the album "Capture/Release" by The Rakes.
And for some reason I can't play 9 songs: 22 Grand Job, Open Book, The Guilt, Binary Love, We Are All Animals, Violent, Terror!, Work Work Work (Pub Club Sleep), All Too Human.
These songs are on my iPod but when I press play nothing happens. While the 3 remaining songs (Strasbourg, Retreat, T Bone) everything is normal.
I emailed support... and no offense to them but they gave me a crappy service. Maybe they think everybody has an iPod Shuffle, by just giving me the iPod Reset Utility for that model.
So I tried to reset my iPod through iTunes and didn't work.
Then I used another iPod... and songs wont play.
I emailed support again and apparently they are just going to ignore me.
So can you help me?!
Sorry if I sound rude BTW.

Hi-
This probably doesn't help, per say, but it'll enlighten you.
I got an iTunes gift card for xmas for $25 this past season. I used it, tried to download my movies, nothing happened. When I went back to look, my account claimed I DID download them. Being that you can't download more than once, I obviously couldn't try again. So $25 went to Apple and I didn't get a single leased tune, TV show, or movie from them. I saw leased because it's not truly ownership, they have too many limitations that real ownership doesn't contain.
So long story short, I contacted Apple a few times and they've ignored me as well. I even told them I've spoken to my attorney and promised suit for not just this incident, but incidences that have cost me thousands of dollars in the past. Would you believe they still haven't replied? Let's hope they have a good excuse in court.
Feel free to email me directly with questions:

TS1702 song wont play

Hi, I downloaded a song on via my iphone 4S. When I synched it up to my macbook, the song wont play on either my macbook or iphone. The message states 'you must authorise song on this device'. I then type in my password and it states '5 out of 5 devices authorised'. This is obviously wrong because I only have it on two devices and second of all, why is this such a massive pile of ****? I pay £1800 for a mac book, £700 for a top of the range iphone 4S and then pay 99p for a song and cant play it on any device. If I had bought the CD, I could have put it on as many devices as I like and given it to as many people as I like. Can somone please tell me how I can either get my money back for the song or get it to play? Also, several music videos I have downloaded, stop after the first 30 seconds and wont play. Any help would be most appreciated. Many thanks.

Delete the track from the iTunes library, allowing iTunes to move the track files to the Trash. Then download the track again from the iTunes Store via this procedure:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
That fixes the problem for many people. If problems with the track persist, go here:
iTunes Support
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.

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.

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.

i bought an album and two songs wont play right. how can i fix this

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that album and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

Ipod songs wont play

I have had my 80gb Ipod for about 6 months now and have had no problems with it untill now. i have not dropped it or damaged it in anyway. i recently got a new hard plastic case for it and it and now the songs wont play. at first 1 song would play then after it was done it would skip to a random song in that album and not play, then it would play some songs and not others. i have not DL any new programs, music, games or anything on it for weeks. i have like 10,000 songs on it and it has taken me a long time to do so, so i dont wanna reset it, is there any other way to fix this?

Grey text when you look at the content and lock symbol at the bottom of the screen simply shows that your iPod is set to "automatically update songs and playlists". . If you want to access your iPod directly, play it through your iTunes, connect it to a second computer etc. you just need to change the update method to "Manually manage songs and Playlists" in the iPod preferences. For more detail see this tutorial: Managing Your Songs Manually
One thing to be aware of with manually updating is that the iPod also has to be manually ejected before the "Do Not Disconnect" message will go away. Safely disconnect iPod
For info: iPod 101
The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit>Preferences>iPod>Music tab):
1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.
