Song won't play/ Skips
I've noticed recently on my iPod Classic that a song will be skipped over or won't play in my library. It will play on my iTunes itself or any where else. But not on my iPod. Has anyone had a similar problem? Or know how to fix this?
Start by working through all of the suggestions in this Apple support document.

TS1897 last minutes of songs won't play
The last minute or so of a lot of songs won't play on my laptop or my ipod. It just skips over it and goes to the next on the list. I tried restoring my ipod, but it does it on my laptop as well. Now what? Any ideas?
Are these tracks you have downloaded from the iTunes Store or were they imported from outside of iTunes? If they are iTunes downloads, delete them from your library and redownload again at no cost via iCloud.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, you'll need to re-rip or reimport these music into iTunes from its original source.

HT201272 iTunes Songs Won't Play - Bad Download?
I just downloaded an iTunes album and the first (2) songs won't play on my computer -- they skip to the 3rd song every time.
All (8) other songs play without issue.
Possibly a bad download?Yes. Delete and redownload them if doing so is free in your country.

What do you mean by "won't play"?
Try deleting the song and downloading it again from the iTunes Store. -
I backed up my I-tunes library (by dragging my "music" folder to my new external hard drive. Now 6,000 songs won't play stating, "original file cannot be found." What can I do to get these songs back???!!!
Try putting the files back where they were before you moved them, then follow the steps in this Apple document -> iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

My songs won't play on Windows 7 version of iTunes. Everything on my PC is up to date. Windows Media Player works fine. I followed the directions and nothing has changed. I have already tried to re-install iTunes but that hasn't worked either. If anyone knows how to solve this problem please E-Mail me at [email protected] or reply to this message.
Itunes worked after reseting my computer to factory setting however had trouble again after syncing my iPod and iPod shuffle. Is this a coincidence or could it be the cause of the problem?

I purchased a bunch of songs last month and one song won't play. Every time I try to play it the window pops up to authorize my computer to play that particular purchase. I tried all of the suggestions that Itunes support send me to. Nothing has worked so far. The song is on my account as a purchased item along with the other items that I purchased the same day. Does anyone have any ideas??
The very same thing has happened to me today...........? Could it be a song pending release? Seems unlikely. Please post any resolutions.

If only a small number of songs won't play, delete and redownload them if doing so is free in your country. If all of the protected content won't play, click here and follow the instructions.

My old computer died just after I transferred iTunes via external HD. When I transferred the content from the HD to the new computer, most songs won't play. Message is "Can't identify source". Sharing was on in the old computer when it died.
Is there no ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM?

I just downloaded an album but one song won't play instead a message that "This computer is not authorized" to play the song. The prompt has a log in and when I log in it tells me the computer is already authorized. What gives? Specifically the album is Flying Lotus - Until the Quiet Comes and the song is DMT Song (feat. Thundercat). I purchased the entire album and it even played fine the first listen through.
Hi,
If you are in a country that permits redownloads, delete track and go to iTunes Store > purchased and redownload. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

I purchased an album with bonus songs but the bonus songs won't play. Whazt's the problem ?
Okay, that sounds like the dodgy tracks have been getting damaged during the download.
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. -
My Itunes opens on my PC but the songs won't play, I have no idea about what to do?
My Itunes opens on my PC but the songs won't play. I have no idea about what to do to resolve the issue. I appreciate any help. It is an HP computer about a year old running Windows 7.
Try forgetting the network, reboot your iPad and then try joining the network again.
Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Forget this network. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
Go back to Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Enter your password>Tap Join.
If that doesn't work, reset network settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. Reboot the iPad again. Go back to Settings>WiFi>Your network name>Enter your password>Tap join. -
HT3951 I downloaded an album and 2 of the songs won't play
I downloaded an album and 2 of the songs won't play and it's showing that the songs are fully downloaded. I have the latest version of itunes. If anyone knows what the problem is and how to fix it, please help!
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 those tracks and use the 'Report a Problem' link (iTunes support should reply within, I think, 24 to 48 hours).
Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page. -
