Some itunes songs play and others won't

I was assigned case #155720735 for this matter. I have 1 apple ID (fcempa) and on the songs that do not play, it says to get computer authorized. When I do that, it says computer is already authorized, but won't play the song. I clicked on get info tab of the song that won't play and the account name matches the ones that do play. 2 techs could not help me and stated it could be an issue on Apple's end? Help!

Welcome To Apple Discussions!
Well, could you maybe give a little more detailed information? What do you mean by "don't play"? When you click on them, what happens exactly? Are they all songs from the iTunes Music Store? etc....
Good luck,
Adam

Help! Suddenly iTunes/iPhoto/AddressBook and others won't open

Recently when on Safari, i'm told by certain websites to update Safari, when it's already current. Then today shockwave won't load when I go to any web page. Now iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie and other programs won't open. I can still get on the web, still use some programs like FileMaker Pro and Safari. Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Hi stoph-man,
First of all, Welcome to the Apple Discussions Forums!
Frequently, when applications refuse to open or "quit unexpectedly" it is a font problem.
For a more detailed explanation, and suggestions for resolving the issue have a look at Dr. Smoke's, of the X-Lab, FAQ found @:

Read carefully and follow the suggestions in the order given.

Itunes seems to be unable to locate original file to play songs. Songs are in the itunes media file and playable direct from file. Preferences/advance file location is correct. Some files are playing and others aren't with no obvious pattern.

Itunes is unable to locate original file when attempting to play music. Songs are in the itunes media file and playable direct from there. Preferences/Advanced file location pointer is correct. Some songs play but most don't. I did move files around a bit in an attempt to share music with another account on same computor, however this did not work so have returned file to original location. Please help, I am way outside my feild in this one. Ta.

I have solved the problem. i think when I moved the media file back out of public to my account, I put it back into the wrong place and ended up with a media file inside a media file, inside another media file!! So I moved it again and fixed!! Now I just need to work out why i can't share with another account user of same computor.

Some songs will play and others won't

I have a lot of music that plays fine, but there are also a good percentage that won't play. Shortly after I refurnished my OS drive with a Backup copy some of my songs wouldn't play. Do I have corrupted music files? Please help! I am in dire need of some assistance. I have already deauthored and reauthored my HD still no resolution. Also my music files are on a different HD from the OS HD.
Thank you

My ipod resets when a certain song plays and it won't update some videos

There is one song that no matter what when it plays it resets my ipod, black screen with the silver logo then main menu after like 30 seconds.
And I have a tv show on my iTunes but even though it shows its on my ipod I can't find it on there.
So is there a way to liek wipe my ipod clean reformat it and reupdate, and if so would that even fix my problems?
13" White MacBook/ HP a450n Windows XP Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2.0 GHz, 1GB RAM, 80 GB Hard Drive, Superdrive/ 30 GB Black iPod Video

That song would appear to be corrupt. You should delete it from the iPod and transfer it back again.
If that doesn't work, try deleting it form iTunes then re importing it.
"even though it shows its on my ipod I can't find it on there."
Huh?
You can wipe your iPod by restoring it.
See this: Restoring the 5th generation iPod (iPod with video).
That will also reinstall the software, but whether it will cure the issue no one can say.

Fixed it! I guess that I had installed avast! a few days ago and completely forgotten about it. That seems to be what the problem was, because I uninstalled it and it's working fine now. Thank you though, you rang the bell that reminded me! (:

I rented a movie from itunes(The Untouchables), and it won't play. It lets me click on it but then is just black and won't play. I saw that I was billed for it. What should I do?

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 item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

Just brought the MacPro and first time using iTune and Yes I authorized the computer. But for a few purchased songs, only 30 seconds of the song plays and for one song off an album, a pop comes up saying I need to authorized the computer, but I do this and it says it is authorized already. I click on the song to play it and this process repeat (saying it is not authorized, then saying it is already authorized)

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

How do I get synced iTunes U episodes and other podcasts to play in "correct" order?

More than just a couple iTunes U classes and other podcasts I have downloaded somehow have incorrect clock or date issues that (so far) make it impossible to listen to them in the correct order on my ipod.
Is there a way within iTunes to correct the organization information for podcasts or lectures produced by other parties?

If you keep them in the Podcasts section the order is determined by the feed, as is the data, and you can't alter them. If you drag them out to the Desktop you can rename them in a way which will get them to sort properly, and repimport them - though they will then turn up in the Music list and be treated as songs. They may well not carry any embedded data, so you may need to re-enter it manually.

I received a gift card and when I redeemed it an error message said that I had some itunes files missing and that I needed to reinstall itunes. Will I still have all my credits when I download itunes?

I received an online gift card for Father's Day. When I tried to redeem the gift then I received a error message saying I had some itune files missing and I needed to reinstall/download itunes. Will I still have my previous purchase credits after downloading and reistalling itunes?

You will, because the credited funds are on your iTunes account, not the application. When you reinstall iTunes just configure it with your old iTunes account and your credits will be there waiting for you.
