TS1424 Some of the songs I downloaded on one album play for only 20 or so seconds. Most of the songs are all there, but about a third only play the very beginning.

Some of the songs I downloaded do not play fully. The first 20 or so seconds play, but then it goes to the next song.

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copy 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 a download link for your track 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.

HT1751 This was extremely helpful, however, all the songs I had unchecked in my library are now checked on on my new MacBook. My playlists are all there, but I do I really need to uncheck the ~3,000 - 4,000 songs I had previously unchecked?

My original library exists on my old computer, so I could still transfer it. Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated - thank you!

This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

I can not right click "open in new tab" nor open in new window, in my bookmark file.the bookmarks are all there, but I have to open a tab first then left click to open an item. Why can't I right click? The options are there, but not highlighted/clickable.

My computer just had to get a new hard drive and we reloading info onto the new hard drive...my iphoto pics are all, there save about 8, but there are NO thumbnails. I tried rebuilding the thumbnails...nothing. I tried creating a new library...nothing.

I have recently had to purchase a new battery and hard drive. Because it wouldn't back up completely, I was able to recover most information, but it looked a bit different or I have found items in different places. One thing that is happening is in iphoto. All my pics are there, but there are NO thumbnails visible. I have tried rebuilding the thumbnails...nothing. I have tried creating a new library...no info even transferred. Any suggestions?

What version of iPhoto?
Can you view the pics at full size?

Itunes Match Songs are all there but won't play

I've been using iTunes Match at work pretty regulary and I've notived that, seemingly randomly, I'll open iTunes and all my music will be there... however doub;e-clicking a song or or hitting PLAY does nothing. No error message; no nothing. Th ePLAY button is isn't ghosted or anything.
I've tried goifn Store . Update iTunes Match. That doesn't work. The only thing that seems to work is turning match completely off and then back on again.
Any idea why this would be happening?

Well the odd thing is that everything works perfectly fine most of the time. However, 10% of te time, Match enterest his stange state where songs won't play. Nothing changes in the iCloud Status field. You can even edit metadata like rating and song-names. Songs just won't play... nor will they download.
Based on the above, I don't think it's a corportate firewall issue (neither does my IT guy).

HT203167 I look at my history of purchases including my songs and ringtones from iTunes. They are all there but my ringtones say I have to purchase them again in order to put them on my new iPhone that I just purchased from Rogers. I need help getting my

I'm trying to get my ringtones that i purchased on my old iPhone onto my new one that I just got. They r in my history and when I click on them it says you have already purchased them, would you like to buy them again in order to download them. I did it with one already and I now need help so I don't have to buy them again. Can u help get them back please

Ringtones are currently a one-time only download from the store. If you don't have them on your computer nor on a backup then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Just reinstalled Firefox and my header and icons (copy/paste/history etc.) are all white but my text remains blue? The header was kind of bluish before and icons contrasted.

I re-installed Firefox v. 9.??? The icons are white bordered in gry/blk and appear hollow. The header is all white and there is no contrast between the icons and the header, except for the outline of the icons. I have some bookmarks in the menu bar and they are fine, although the text is baby blue but again over the white background. Can I send you a picture (paint) of it?

Thanks, but the problem isn't the creation of a screenshot. It has to do with the coloring of the headers and icons. Submitting a screenshot, with my question/problem, as a means of better explaining the problem, may have further illustrated the problem I am having.

I recently purchased a song and my entire song library was deleted after it downloaded. The photos and aps are still there, but no tunes. Anyone know how to fix this? I have songs loaded on the ipod that I don't want to loose and they are not in MY itunes

I recently purchased a song from itunes and when the song downloaded, it deleted/removed my entire song library. Only leaving the one song.
My photos and aps are still there, but no songs. Anyone ever encounter this and how do you fix it? I don't want to loose my songs as some are not in MY itunes library. Help

If the songs are still on your ipod, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes on your computer, connect and right click on it in the device list, then choose "transfer purchases" to copy all bought media and apps from your ipod to your computer.
If the songs are not on your computer and got deleted from your ipod as well, you can't get them back, unless you have a backup of your iTunes library as part of your computer backup.

Can I labled the same song to more than one albums? As you know, some songs are repeated in different albums.

You can make a copy of an existing song, then change the album, artwork and track number details. You cannot make the same physical file show up in two different albums.

HT1725 I downloaded two albums yesterday and only half of each of the songs have downloaded when I play them. There is nothing to say it is waiting for the rest to download and I have checked for available downloads...help please!

no, i had to leave so i logged out and when i opened itunes on my mac and went into the downloads tab it only had one paused download listed. i resumed the download for the one movie listed and the other one never showed up. its been about two weeks since i initially bought the two movies so i figured something was wrong.

I accidentally added a folder to iTunes music library and now all of my songs are in there twice. How do I delete the folder/music i just imported?

Apple's official advice on duplicates is here... HT2905: How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning
to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.

I have bought an iMAC second hand but when updates to purchased (not by me) Apps I cannot download the updates as it is asking for the original owners password. How can I amend this or could I delete the Apps and download new ones in place under my email

If the machine was upgraded to Lion 10.7.x by the original owner then you bought an illegal license of Lion and also of any other applications that the seller said came pre-installed, this assumes the seller did not include original install media. In that case you need to contact the seller for the original install DVDs that came with the machine re-install up to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and then purchase Mountain Lion ($20) and the applications you want or need. If the seller cannot come up with the original install discs then you can buy them from a nominal cost from AppleCare..

Why has iTunes seperated a album which I have copied over from my external hard drive into iTunes? How can you pull all the songs back together into one album again?

Quick answer: Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields. If they are not a multiple CD set you still need to make sure the disc number fields are set correctly or all empty.

When I send emails using my iPad, recipients are telling me that I am sending them blank emails. I've had some of them forward the emails back to me so I can take a look and it seems that my message is actually there but the text is white...

When I send emails using my iPad, some recipients are telling me that I am sending them blank emails. I've had some of them forward the emails back to me so I can take a look and it seems that my message is actually there but the text is white. Interestingly enough, I was a Windows user just a few months ago and I was on the receiving end of this same problem with someone who was sending emails from her iPhone. I don't believe it is happening every time but if it happens even once it's a problem. Any idea what's going on?

Oddly enough, having reported the problem it appears to have fixed itself. There may be some combination swipe gesture that triggers it is all I can think because I suddenly manged to zoom my display x3 by double tapping three fingers. Took me a while to sort this out but then when I got back home I could suddenly see all my emails again. Bizarre!

Itunes imports cd; but they are all small files, and incomplete. Itunes plays neither the cd nor the imported songs. Anyone else faced this issue?

i've had this happen when the cd is extremely dirty. usually only one or two tracks though, not a whole cd.
