Songsd ont playing to the end

Hi
Since I upgraded to iTunes 11 a number of songs, which played perfectly well before, now won't play through to the end. Apart from missing the end of the song this is messing up smart playlists because the songs aren't marked as played. Any ideas?

Bob - A few things to try:
Get Info, and look at the "Options" tab to make sure a "Stop Time" didn't somehow get set.
See whether the file plays correctly in another player (e.g. QuickTime), to make sure the file is not damaged. 
If it is a purchased song, delete it from your library and download a fresh copy.

  • Animated GIF Doesn't Play To The End

    I've created a simple animated GIF in Photoshop CS6, eight seconds long, 30fps.
    I have several layers that fade out at and then more layers that fade IN at four seconds. It plays perfectly in Photoshop, but a rendered GIF doesn't play entirely to the end - it stops prematurely.
    How do I fix this?  I've tried the animated GIF in a browser and it does the same thing in a PPT slide.
    Anyone?
    Thanks.

    Thank you, Nancy.
    I just reduced my project file down to 15fps and three seconds long.  Testing the animation in the Save for Web dialogue box I see that it still won't play to the end.  The fade-in stops before it's at 100% opacity.
    The rendered GIF file size would be 242k.  I HAVE to use Save for Web, as Save As will discard hidden layers and animations.
    Still can't figure out what causes this, and I've had this happen to me before.  (I bet I wouldn't have this problem rendering out of After Effects.)

  • Songs will not play to the end on only one of my computers

    Some of the songs in my library will not play to the end.  However, I have come to realize this is only happening on one of my computers.  The computer I sync with.  The same songs will play on my laptop and iPad.  ??? What gives?

    Just in case, check to see if "Crossfade songs" has been checked in your Playback preferences in iTunes. Here's a screenshot showing where to find it:
    If it is checked, try unchecking it and click OK.

    A couple of months ago, I went to the Apple Store to try and sort this problem out. I was told that I was not playing my songs out of an actual music library. I created a library and loaded all of my songs, movies, etc. onto it. I had found that when I synced my songs from the new library onto my itouch, the songs no longer stopped in odd spots or bled into each other. To ensure that most of my songs had been fixed, I played the ones that were the most problematic. Fortunately, the songs play all the way through without any interruption. So far, I have not encountered the same problems that I had posted in my question. I apologize for not knowing the fellow's name who helped me with my iTouch at the Apple Store, but I would like to say how thankful and happy I am now that my iTouch no longer skips to the next song.
    I know that other people have had this same issue with their iPods. If you encounter your music not playing correctly, I would suggest that making a new library and  loading all of your music into the new one may help correct the problem. I hope that this helps.

  • Can I get audio to play til the end, even if I turn the page?

    I know how to add a quicktime audio file, but once you turn to the next page, the audio file stops. Is there a way to set the audio to play til the end regardless of how many pages you turn? Or would I have to split up the audio and have the user play it on each page they turn to?
    Are there any options for the audio player interface? Or would I have to resort to using a widget?

    I've just bought the enhanced edition of The Story of Naxos, and was intrigued to see that the embedded audio files do continue playing after the page has been turned.  So it's clearly something that iBooks itself is capable of handling, even if iBooks Author doesn't cater for it - and I've also submitted a feature request pointing this out.
    And with regard to the "superfluous" comment, it depends entirely on the nature of the project.  The one I've postponed until this feature is introduced involves recordings of Schubert songs that are supposed to be playable over the original German lyrics, an English translation, a musicological analysis and a facsimile of the score - the idea being that you can listen to the complete song while exploring various aspects of it.  But it's impossible to fit all this material onto one page, and even reading it in portrait mode doesn't work, as the music stops playing as soon as the embedded images from the score appear.

  • TS3297 I bought an album, two of the twelve songs play about half the way through, then stop, and then the next song in line starts playing.  How do I get the songs downloaded so they play to the end?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

    You have the accessibility VoiceOver feature turned on.
    Triple click the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there. If problems see the following for how to turn off via iTunes:

  • How do you stop a movie from playing past the end?

    I uploaded a video to Vimeo I made from various clips and there was about 40 seconds of black after the end. How do you add a marker so it knows where to stop and hopefull return to the beginning. I already put the 'stop' marker in but it plays past it in the elements editor and assume that's what it did in the uploaded video. I believe 'stop' marker is only for DVD play.  I have Elements 11.

    Expand the Timeline with the -+ slider above the Timeline. Make sure that the slider is all the way to the right so that you are at maximum expansion. Then, as Hunt suggested, hit the End key and inspect the area where the Timeline Indicator stops. These possible fragments/leftovers present typically as very thin vertical black lines scattered in the tracks. After you delete any such fragments, repeat the process to make sure you have all the fragments.
    The major reason for me adding to this thread was to remind you never to put a stop marker at the end of the last item on the Timeline. It is a bad practice to fall into. It is not needed and creates all sorts of problems especially as seen in burn to disc.
    Please let us know the outcome.
    Thanks.

  • Scene selection will not play to the end! help needed

    Hi
    I am using Encore CS5 and my DVD is a DUAL LAYER
    I have created a DVD of a dance show. I have a PLAY ALL button that plays the full show but on the timeline I have created CHAPTER POINTS for each dance.
    On a SUB MENU I have created a dance selection menu, the buttons on this menu point to CHAPTER PLAYLISTS that I have created, so for example I have 18 dances and I have created 18 CHAPTER PLAYLISTS with each one having every dance in it. I have applied end actions to every playlist to go back to the previous menu. When I preview the DVD in Encore the dance selection works fine, it plays that dance and goes back to the previous menu.
         The problem I have is when I have created the image and watch it with VLC player or I burn it to a DVD some of the dance selections only play about 10 secs and not the full dance and then it will apply the end action and go back to the previous menu. This is extremely frustrating!!!!!!!!
    Has any one experienced anything similar or have any idea why this is happening.
    Thanks!

    CHAPTER PLAYLISTS that I have created, so for example I have 18 dances and I have created 18 CHAPTER PLAYLISTS with each one having every dance in it. I have applied end actions to every playlist to go back to the previous menu.
    From the rest of what you said, I assume you mean that each chapter playlist includes ONLY ONE dance in it. If you mean what you said in this sentence, you want only one dance in each chapter playlist.
    Make sure that you have no end actions on any chapters. While you are looking at that, make sure that you have no overrides anywhere in the project. It doesn't matter whether you are sure you did not add any. There is the inadvertant click, and I have had Encore add chapter end actions when working with its timeline.
    If all is as it should be, burn a test disk, and confirm you see the problem from a DVD player. I find VLC a great test option, but it does not handle slideshows, so I'd test beyond it.

  • Stopping podcast play at the end

    In my old ipod, podcast play stopped at the end of each podcast. But with my new ipod touch, play just continues right through to the next one. I really hate this behaviour, for all sorts of reasons. Is there any way to return to the previous behaviour, of stopping at the end of the podcast?

    By default, Podcasts are tagged as "Skip when shuffling". So it could be that your old iPod was in shuffle mode, which would then stop playback because of the "skip" setting. On your new iPod, try playing the Podcast with Shuffle turned on, I think you'll find it stops at the end of the Podcast.

  • HT1725 download of movie encountered an error and would not play till the end

    download of movie encountered an error and would not play till the end

    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.

  • Edge Animate doesn't respond to trigger, auto-plays to the end while previewing in the browser.

    I've this strange problem with EA.
    I was working on a project which was doing pretty well. You may see it over here.
    This afternoon I wanted to make some progress, opened the file, clicked preview in browser. What I saw was the auto-play of animation from start to end. No regard to triggers whatsoever. So, I downloaded the original file from the web server (which obviously is working as you can see from the above link), reopened in AE and tried to preview in the browser, same thing happened, doesn't respond to triggers, just auto-plays start to finish in one go. I hit publish again (with no edits, just loaded up the originals from server, saved and published.), and re-uploaded to the web server to see if it had anything to do with my local settings. It behaved same as the preview, auto play, as if there was no triggers.
    Am i doing something wrong here? or is this a known bug? if so, is there a work around to this issue?
    Thanks!
    PS: I restarted the PC and reinstalled EA, that didn't help either.

    Must be a problem with the graphics drivers or operating system.. Any other system malfunctioning reported ?
    If yes, kindly contact your system admin and format your OS...
    Must be a problem with compatibility, so please do the the above
    Happy browsing

  • Audiobooks stop playing at the end

    I had raised this question earlier, and thought I had solved it but was mistaken. I've come back with a clearer view of the problem though. The problem: Sometimes, when an audiobook plays, when it reaches the very end, instead of continuing to the next item in the playlist, the iPod stops playing altogether and goes back to the main menu screen.
    What I've noticed is that this problem only seems to occur after I've plugged my iPod into my computer to charge/sync/whathaveyou. Afterward, I have to listen to about 3-4 tracks of audiobooks (manually selecting the next track each time it stops) before my iPod gets its act together and just plays through them normally. I've already done the 5R's thing. Thoughts?

    Turns out Apple doesn't let audiobooks play chronologically...don't know why but if you put them into a playlist, you can listen to them contiguously.
