TS1362 song is light grey/won't play only from itouch playlist

Hi,
    3 songs on my itouch are light gray instead of usual darker color and have the circular synching symbol in front of them.  The songs are fine and play on my itunes music list.  I've tried deleting them and putting them back on my itouch....but they remain in the same unplayable light gray condition.  Any ideas?  Thanks, h

I GOES THAT COLER WHEN THE IPOD DOSE'NT ACCEPT THE SONG I WOULD RECOMEND DOWNLOADING THEM FROM ITUNES STORE

  • Music in light grey won't play

    what did you find out?

  • Getting to song to play ONLY on one playlist.

    Is there any way that I can get a song to play ONLY on a certain playlist, and somehow exclude it from the main list of songs?
    Me and my girlfriend have a very wide disparity in music tastes, and we share an iPod together. Is there a way that I could make it so that when I put a song on the iPod and she wants to shuffle songs, that mine wont get thrown into the mix?
    Also, is it possible to shuffle song play while playing only from a playlist?
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, you could do the exclude from shuffle, but that would exclude it from everyone's shuffle that uses the computer (unless you manually do it to your iPod library only)
    The easiest thing to do would be to do the grouping as I listed, then make a Smart Playlist that you use as the main. The only thing you have the smartlist do is exclude those songs which you label.
    Smartlists are shuffleable as well.
    This way you just label the ones YOU don't want played, set a rule 1 time on the playlist (set it to live update) and everytime a new song is added that you don't want you add it to the grouping. And your playlist automatically updates!

    Hello CTGame,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there’s a grayed out song in your iTunes library that can’t be played or downloaded again like other past purchases. Try taking a look at the article linked below and verify the computer is authorized to play that content.
    How to troubleshoot iTunes Match - Apple Support
    Songs appear to be missing
    Songs containing DRM (Digital Rights Management) might not appear in iCloud, or might appear grayed out. This can occur if your computer is not authorized to play that content. Try authorizing your computer, then manually update iTunes Match. To determine what Apple ID your computer needs to be authorized for to play a specific song:
    Locate and select the song in your iTunes library.
    Choose File > Get Info.
    In the Summary tab, locate the Account Name field in the right column. Write it down.
    Click OK.
    Choose Store > Authorize this Computer.
    Type in the account name from the Summary field and enter its password. Click Authorize.
    Choose Store > Update iTunes Match.
    So long,
    -Jason

  • How can I download a previously downloaded purchase to my iTunes library on my laptop when the listing for the song in my library won't play because it says it cannot locate the file. Yes I have searched my iTunes folders and also done a full windows sear

    How can I download a previously downloaded purchase to my iTunes library on my laptop when the listing for the song in my library won't play because it says it cannot locate the file. Yes I have searched my iTunes folders and also done a full windows search. The track plays on my iPad and my iPhones but will not play on my laptop!?
    It has an "!" To the left of the song title in my library
    My worry is that if I sync my iPad/iPhone then I will lose the track on those also!

    If you cannot find the file on your hard drive then once you delete the current broken entry you should be able to redownload from iTunes in the Cloud. This assumes the item in question qualifies. Note that audiobooks, digital booklets, iTunes LPs & Extras, ringtones, selected movies etc. don't.
    If prompted don't hide the item. You may find that you need to close and then reopen iTunes before it will appear for download.

  • A while ago I wanted to download/buy an album on my iPhone 4 but I didnt have enough space so I deleted some stuff and downloaded the album. well ever since then my other music won't play, only that one album will play and none of my other music will play

    a while ago I wanted to buy an album but I didn't have enough space on my phone, (iPhone 4) so I deleted some things off my phone and downloaded the album. well ever since then all my other music won't play, only that one album will play. I thought it was because I havent been able to get the software update on my phone but I don't have enough space for that either. I deleted almost all my photos, all my apps, i deleted almost all the info that is on the apps that you can't delete, but it says I have too much music and I only have 45 songs!!!!!!!! and I don't want to delete them because that's what I'm trying to listen to but I can't because of whatever reason. PLEASE HELP!!

    1, you can't at the moment, though with iOS 5 in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
    Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device
    2, by removing it from you synced from and re-syncing. Only photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad (either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view)
    3, the location of the photos that you synced to the iPad should be listed on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes.
    4, you can copy the photos from your iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 . You should also be able to delete them from the iPad as part of the transfer process to your computer, and it's then your choice whether to add them to your sync photo list so as to copy them back to the iPad. Copying them to your computer would allow you to organise them into folders and therefore be able to sync them back into separate albums.
    5, I don't use Dropbox either. There are some third-party browser apps in the iTunes App Store that allow you to download pages so that you can view them when offline e.g. Atomic Web (the whole page is saved within Atomic Web, it doesn't place a photo into the Photos app)
    6, deleting content should help. If you remove an app from your iPad then you also remove the content that it's got on the iPad - so if you then decide to reinstall it back onto the iPad then you will need to manually add back any content that you want in it. None of the Apple built-in apps (including Photos) can be removed from the iPad

  • My ipod is stuck in permanent shuffle. It won't play albums or my playlists in the order that they were created. How can I fix this?

    My ipod is stuck in permanent shuffle. It won't play albums or my playlists in the order that they were created. How can I fix this?

    Do yo have Shuffle turned on?
    - On the Now Playing screen on the right hand side below the scrubber bar are crossed arrows. That is the Shuffle control. Tap it until it is white for no shuffle
    - There is also Shake to Shuffle in Settings>Music
    If still problem:
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • I want to play music from my playlist when I am using slideshow of my pictures in Ipad,  but I can only choose ONE SINGLE song, and it continuously repeates itself.  Is there a way to play the complete playlist while showing my pictures?

    I want to play music from my playlist when I am using slideshow of my pictures in Ipad,  but I can only choose ONE SINGLE song, and it continuously repeates itself.  Is there a way to play the complete playlist while showing my pictures?

    You can start the playlist playing in the iPod app and then switch into the Photos app and start your (non-music) slideshow - as you've found out you can currently only select a single track in the Photos app. Whether that will change in iOS 5 I don't know, but you could try leaving feedback for Apple : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • I bought a full album of 4 songs on Itunes sotre, when I play only hear 30 seconds ... why?

    I bought a full album of 4 songs on Itunes sotre, when I play only hear 30 seconds ... why?
    I can do, how I can get my money? or how I can re-download them without buying them? 

    Why? Seems to be an intermittent issue at present.
    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • Whatever song is playing, it will repeat instead of going to the next song, whether is's in shuffle mode or from a playlist

    Whatever song is playing, it will repeat instead of going to the next song, whether it's in shuffle mode or from a playlist

    It sounds like the repeat setting has been enabled. See page 21 of your iPod's User Guide for instructions on turning it off.

  • Apple TV 3gen won't play content from iTunes, Apple TV 2nd gen works fine same network

    Hi.
    Recently, after all the most recent Apple updates, my Apple TV 3rd gen won’t play content from iTunes on my Mac. I have an Apple TV 3nd gen  on the same network and it works fine. This problem started after the recent round of OS X updates( I am running 10.9.2 and iTunes 11.1.5. As my Apple TV3 was actually new and I took it to the Apple store where they kindly gave me a new one but the same thing happens. The Apple TV 3rd gen will play content through the onboard clients like Netflix, iTunes, Bloomberg.
    The Apple TV3rd gen won’t play anything form my computer’s iTunes library, whether or not it was purchased from the Itunes store or home movies from iPhone etc. I have restored the device a few times to no luck. I have even switched routers, same problem.
    Any thoughts ?
    Thanks in advance.

    Home sharing was configured and turned on. I can actually see all the content on my Mac. When I trry to play anything i just see the white spinning wheel on the black background.

  • My computer won't play videos from site like the Daily Show and the CW, but they stopped working last week. I have the newest version of Adobe player. Anyone know why the full videos will not play?

    I failed to mention that the sound does play on the videos that are not playing.

  • Firefox won't play videos from YouTube, Hulu, etc. w/latest Flash version.

    Despite following both Firefox and Flash directions, Firefox won't play videos from YouTube, Hulu, etc. They either never load or they load and freeze within seconds. Before I got the latest versions of Firefox and Flash, I did not have this problem. So there must be a problem in one or both of them. Since I understand from various websites that this is a widespread problem, can Firefox fix this? It's a major flaw in the latest Firefox version.

    '''If you are running Adblock Plus...'''
    While on a YouTube page, right click the ABP icon and "open blockable items".
    When the window opens at the bottom of the page, right click this line: http://s.ytimg.com/yt/swfbin/watch_as3-vfl9DouAr.swf (or some variation) , then "Disable Filter".

  • How to set alarm on iPhone 5 to play music from a playlist?

    I'd like to set alarm on my iPhone 5 to play music from a playlist or from a album in Music, i.e. when alarm goes off, it will play more than just one song like songs in a playlist. This setting option was present in my old iPods (iPod Classic and iPod 5th generation), but is not present in both new iPhone 5 and new iPod Touch. Or, does anyone know how to work around it? It would be nice to be woken up by one of my favorite playlists rather than having to listen to just one song over and over. Thank you. piamsakp

    Tell Apple to add this ability:

    As far as the app goes, I don't Know, as I don't use it. Just know you need an app to do playlists.

  • How can you create a playlist with music and music video and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?

    How can you create a playlist on Ipod touch with music and music video,  and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?  I can download, create a playlist with both music and music video, stream that through the Apple TV with no problem.  The sound and the information show up on the TV, but when it gets to a music video, it only shows the information and "artwork".
    I also have a video playlist - videos play fine through the Apple TV, but will not shuffle through all videos - continues to repeat the same one.  I have most definitely selected shuffle in both locations - from the playlist and on the ipod video screen while video is playing.

    I finally got it... had to sync the photos with the music in iMovie, arrange the voiceover in GarageBand then export to iTunes, and then I was able to put it all together in iMovie and burn in iDVD... had a few glitches along the way but finally finished : )
