Some songs in library and on itunes store sound garbled

Hi,
When I play certain songs that I previously purchased through iTunes or when trying to listen to some song fragments in the iTunes store, they sound really garbled or don't play at all...other songs are fine.
I'm using iTunes 9 on a new computer with Vista...but had the same problems with iTunes 8.2.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I assume that the songs with this error have a "!" in front of them? If so, this usually happens when the iTunes music folder is moved or manipulated in some manner. Did you do anything with the iTunes music folder such as change its drive location?

  • Is it possible to have a window open for my library and the Itunes store so that I can toggle between the two?  I want to check my library before I purchase songs to make sure that I don't already own them.

    Is it possible to have a window open for my Itunes Library and Itunes store at the same time so that I can toggle back and forth between the two.  I want to check my library before I buy songs to make sure that I don't duplicate.

    No.

  • Why is the itunes store removing some songs/albums here and there? First they removed all of the Monkey Majik albums, now they've deleted a album by Moonjam in the Mexico store. Im upset

    First they removed all of the Monkey Majik albums in the US Store, now they've deleted a album by Moonjam in the Mexico store.
    Im sorry, but im upset, very.
    Some of my friends think maybe it's because that certain album or two were no longer selling. And yet, there are other ones that
    literally have no reviews, no ratings, not one person buying a song from there, and yet, itunes is still hanging on to them. What's up
    with that.

    "ah, so It's really up to the artists/ Distributions people that decide what can be published or sold? "
    Yes.

  • HT1725 I downloaded an album and all of the tracks will play about 3/4 of the song then stop and play the next song.  I went to itunes store and it said the songs fully downloaded. So how do I get the full song into my library?

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

ALL of the songs I purchased from the iTunes store stop in the middle of the song and then go back to the begining (I keep it on repeat one song by the way). Please help!!! (Windows 7) I would really like to hear my songs all the way through, but I can't . I tried the "Convert Protected ACC files to Purchased ACC files fix" but it DIDN'T work. I don't know what to do. It does it when I transfer the music onto my Classic too.

    What do you mean "doesn't recognize"?

  • Itunes on Windows plays one song from library and stops

    I am a new ipod owner and new to itunes. Loaded many CD's, videos and audiobooks without difficulty into itunes 6.0.4.2. Library of songs is extensive but trying to play songs from library results in itunes playing ONLY one selected song. I must re-select another song in order to play another. It will not continue to play the songs in the library. I have re-installed itunes and that did not correct the problem. Also tried selecting multiple songs and still itunes only plays the 1st song of the list. Obviously I've done something wrong or have not done something that is required. I've check all I know and have also not found this problem in the discussion groups. What am I doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    This'll happen when all of the checkboxes are unchecked. iTunes will only play unchecked songs if they are directly clicked.
    To check all songs, ctrl+check one.

  • I some how deleted the safari app on my iphone as well as my app store and the itunes store app how do i get it back?

    I some how deleted the safari app on my iphone as well as my app store and the itunes store app how do i get it back?

    They are pre-installed apps and therefore cannot be deleted so you may have inadvertently moved them onto a screen or into a folder.  Check all screens and folders and do a search in Spotlight, it will tell you if the apps are still on your iPhone but unfortunately not where it is. If you find them on one or your screens or in a folder, press the icon until it wiggles and then drag it back to where you want it.  Alternatively you can reset your home screen in Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.  Also check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure Safari, iTunes and Installing Apps and Deleting Apps are all ON.

  • Lost album covers from amazon and not itunes store?

    lost some of my album covers since transfer of library to new computer. how do i get it back as some music was purchased through amazon and not itunes store?

    If it's a relatively small number of songs, select the song or songs (with missing album artwork) in the iTunes music library listing.  Right-click on the selected song(s) and select Get Album Artwork.
    If you want iTunes to go through your entire music library, select Music under LIBRARY in the iTunes sidebar.  From the menu bar, under the Advanced menu, select Get Album Artwork.  Don't do it this way, if you have some albums where you added artwork that you selected yourself, because they may get replaced.
    It does not matter if a song was purchased in the iTunes Store, ripped from CD, or purchased at Amazon (or elsewhere).  If the song can be identified as a song in the iTunes Store database, it will get the artwork for it.
    Some artwork may not be available.  In that case you can add your selection.  A good way to do it, if the songs came from Amazon, is to find the song or album at Amazon.  On the web page for the song or album, click-hold-drag the image (of the album artwork) from the browser window to the iTunes window, and drop it where the album artwork normally appears.  NOTE:  You can do this for multiple songs at one time.

    I can't sync some selected movies i bought in iTunes store. Any reason for this and help please?

    I assume they are,  but I am not completely certain.  I purchased the songs from iTunes, so I would be surprised if they are in a format that is not playable by the Touch. 
    How do I check whether the format is playable?
    Thanks,

    Iam changing from one laptop to another and home sharing is only adding songs that i bought from itunes store and not downloaded myself, how do i fix this?

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
