Songs purchased from iTunes cut off and do not show as purchased

I've had iTunes roughly since 2006. All my purchases don't show up in the purchased playlist. Quite a few of the songs (like the entire Sleep Through the Static album) cut off about 2 1/2 minutes into the song. I saw some people had deleted their "corrupt" files and then redownload them from the store but since many of the songs don't even show up as purchased anymore in mine (maybe do to the newer computer) this is not an option
Is there a way to fix this or am I out of luck?

Hello Radgeta,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:

If you do not find your purchases there, don't worry—you can easily associate them with your Purchased playlist.
Best of luck,
Mario

    When I first got my iphone i plugged it into my friends computer and added songs from their itunes. Now when i plug it into my computer it will not connect or show up in the sidebar in itunes. I have already tried factory resetting the phone and 'authorizing this computer' in itunes. Can anyone help?

    Is your iTunes up to date, it is now 10.7, click the iTunes button at the top of this page if you need the new version.

  • I've bought and downloaded music from itunes, but the ends of almost all my songs are cut off and will not play, how can I fix this?

    I've bought and downloaded music from itunes, but the ends of almost all my songs are cut off and will not play, how can I fix this? Most of the music cuts off abouthalf way through the song, then it skips to the next one. Itunes also says I have not purchased the album though it is listed under my purchased albums. It's incrediabley frustrating, please help.

    go to the itunes store. select more in the bottom right select purchased. then press the cloud icon to DL striaght to the phone. Id use wifi. you can also DL into computer then synv over to phone.

  • Song purchased from iTunes cuts off

    Bought an entire album on iTunes for one song and when I go to play it in iTunes it will only play the first 1:45 (it's a 16 minute song!) It obviously didn't download correctly but I'm not sure what to do. It also cuts off on my iPod. The rest of the album seems to play fine but of course the song I want is "album only." Help!

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library and then download again using the Purchased link in the right-hand column of the iTunes Store home page.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history.

  • Why are my downloaded songs from ITunes cutting off before the song has played?

    I am new to ITunes.  I purchased 6 albums. Why are my downloaded songs starting in the middle and cutting off before they have played?

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

    I have downloaded lectures from iTunes u.  It had been working fine, but now my downloads do not show up on my bookshelf.  They do show up as downloaded when I search through the catalog.  How do I fix this?

    Wow, I just checked & all the DOWNLOADED songs MADE it into my iTunes "Songs". Thanks anyway!

  • Every time I launch Firefox 4 it opens 3 or 4 blank windows, no longer opens the tabs from the previous session and does not show my bookmarks sidebar.

    I have to manually close the extra windows and restore the tabs from the previous session, and reopen the sidebar. In disgust I uninstalled Firefox 4 and reinstalled 3.6. Everything works fine in 3.6. Looks to me like Firefox 4 has many major bugs and is not yet ready for prime time. I'll stay with 3.6 for now.

  • HELP MY IPAD TURNED BLE WHILE USING IT THE CUT OFF AND WILL NOT CUT BACK ON NOR WILL IT REGISTER WHLE ITS CHARGING

    I FINALLY DECIDED TO UPDATE MY IPAD WITH THE MOST RECENT SOFTWARE,, WHILE ONLINE SHOPPING IT RANDOMLY TURNED BLUE NOW IT WILL NOT COME BACK ON PLEASE HELP!

    Howdy nhudson1,
    If I understand correctly your iPad will not turn on at all.  I would use these troubleshooting steps from the following article, named:
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on
    If you see a black screen
    You might need to charge your device before it can turn on. Plug in your device and let it charge for at least 10 minutes (20 minutes for iPad), then try turning it on. 
    You should see a battery icon while your device is charging. If you continue to see a black screen, reset your device. 
    If you still need help after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support. 
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • Why when i sync my music from itunes the album pictures do not show on my iphone?

    I had music on my itunes, and from my files on my laptop i put the album cover pictures on itunes. However, when i sync my iphone to itunes, only a few pictures show and i dont know whats gone wrong???

    The iPhone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iPhone. The only exception is iTunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

  • Conversation cut off and show apple logo

    My iPhone 3GS got problem now, when I make converstion (call or receive) for more than few minutes, I got line cut off and the iphone showed apply logo. I had to take few minutes to reset it or recharge it although it had already almost full bettery.
    I read from a forum / community they said have to "replace the device"...
    Please all help. Thanks.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Has any of this been tried?
    If it all has been tried and the issue still occurs, then it is a hardware issue which will require device replacement to fully resolve.

  • Cutting off and on

    Every-time I unplug my laptop the laptop cuts off and will not come back on unless the laptop is plugged in. also. it does not show the percentage of battery life. any suggestions on why this maybe?

    Well it depends on the computer, how it's been used, how many times it's been charged and how.
    Here's a [general Apple article on rechargeable batteries|http://www.apple.com/batteries].
    And here's an Apple Support article on how to [determine how many cycles your battery has been charged|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1519]. Apple writes that
    "A properly maintained Apple notebook battery is designed to retain up to 80 percent of its original capacity after 300 full charge and discharge cycles."
    and
    "A charge cycle means using all of the battery’s power, but that doesn’t necessarily mean a single charge. For instance, you could use your notebook for an hour or more one day, using half its power, and then recharge it fully. If you did the same thing the next day, it would count as one charge cycle, not two, so you may take several days to complete a cycle."
    Lastly, here's an article on [optimal battery usage on laptops|http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html].
    What computer model do you have and how old is the battery. And can you find out how many cycles it's been through using the above?
    Hope it helps.

  • When I switched computers my songs now cut off and don't play out.  How can I get my songs back to play fully that I purchased from ITunes over the past years?

    When I switched computers my songs now cut off and don't play out.  How can I get my songs back to play fully that I purchased from ITunes over the past years?

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs over the last few days, I assume that there has been a problem with Apple's servers.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting those 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 songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

  • I purchased a soundtrack on iTunes (Windows 7) and five of the songs that downloaded get cut off before they finish playing...any idea how to get it fixed?

    I purchased a soundtrack on iTunes (Windows 7) and five of the songs that downloaded get cut off before they finish playing...any idea how to get it fixed?

    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.

  • HT3819 When I sync my iPod some of my purchases from iTunes transfer, but some do not.  When I try to drag the songs onto the iPod icon it shows the 'crossed out' symbol and won't move them.

    When I sync my iPod some of my purchases from iTunes transfer, but some do not.  When I try to drag the songs onto the iPod icon it shows the 'crossed out' symbol and won't move them.  I've tried synching from multiple computers that are all connected with home sharing but it still didn't do the trick.

    Installing iTunes does not cause content to magically appear on the computer.
    Your media is only where you put it.
    iOS devices are not backup devices.
    Copy the media from the old computer to the new computer.

  • ITunes cutting off songs Mountain Lion

    Many of my tracks are cutting off at various points while playing. This has happened since I installed Mountain Lion. (could be highly coincidental)
    They are a mix of songs I purchased from iTunes and ripped from my CDs.
    I have not adjusted the stop times in the song options.
    The option of "deleting and re-download from iTunes" isn't appropriate either as not all the songs are from iTunes.
    Thanks for your support!
    Paul

    Ok, just spent awhile on the phone with Apple...we came up for a quick fix.  It's basically the same as TimWillz with one addition:
    Delete the tracks from itunes, empty the trash, then re-download using the purchased or iCloud in the Itunes store.  The purchased link is in the quicklinks bar on the right of the itunes store homescreen.  A cloud should appear once the songs are deleted, and trash emptied, and you can redownload the songs.
    I didn't do anything with the "simultaneous downloads untick"  as TimWillz suggested, maybe it was already unticked.  But regardless, this seemed to work. 
    As for why this happened, apple engineering is going to look into it and should have a response to me in a few days.  I'll update.
