When I want to randomly play (shuffle) all my songs, it seems that the same songs are being played. I've got over 13,000 songs loaded - it seems to me that I shouldn't be getting any repeats. I unrated all the songs, thinking this might affect how often a song gets picked to play. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I have songs on my iPod and iTunes where sections ranging from 40 seconds to 2 minutes do not play. The song status bar indicates the file is still being played but there is no audio. What can I do to repair or replace these files?

If iTunes purchases, delete and redownload by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise delete and resync if they play OK in iTunes on the computer

Hi
I have an Ipod nano which is nearly 12mths old. Recently the shuffle aspect has not been working and I have to manually press the forward arrows on the screen to move onto the next piece of music. If i dont press the forward arrows the same piece of music plays over and over.

Hello
Tap the screen when playing a song and you should see playback options and tap the repeat until it is white. When it is blue it on repeat and if it has a 1 on it then it is repeating the same song over and over again.

A number of songs I downloaded from the iTunes store are not playing the whole way through.

Some of the songs are only playing for a couple of seconds, them others I have purhased around the same time are playing the whole way through. Is there any way to fix this?

Hey maddielou2,
Thanks for the question. The following article outlines a resolution to your issue:
Songs in iTunes may not play back completely
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4357
Occasionally, if a song purchased from the iTunes Store on a Mac or PC was not downloaded completely, the song may not play back fully. The song may abruptly stop during playback, and iTunes may start playing the next song in your library or playlist.
Resolution
If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, try the following steps to resolve the issue:
- Delete the purchased song that is exhibiting the problem from your iTunes library.
- Click on the Purchased link in the iTunes Store to view your previously purchased music.
- Download your previously purchased song from this list.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Ever thought of making an Ad in which all Apple Products(or at least the greatest 1s) are being used by a person in his or her day in different situations ?...those products in 1 ad ?

Was just thinking a few days ago...Apple never made an ad in which all their products or at least some of their most renowned products are being used by 1 person in a day in different situations he faces...from using an iPod for jogging n then the guy just goes back home sits on his iMac then goes somewhere with his iPad then attending an important call from his iPhone n wanting to watch a movie from his Apple TV or doing something with Macbook Air or Macbook Pro....just a thought

Way is it when i want to watch a video, all i see is a sigh that says "blocked plug-in" ?

when i want to watch a video all i see is this "blocked plug-ins" what are plug-ins?

A plug-in is something like Adobe Flash Player or Microsoft Silverlight
Since you provide zero computer and browser information, and also no information on what KIND of video you want to watch, anything else is a complete guess

When I am playing scrabble I WANT to be able to go to Dictionary and two letter words. These are being blocked. How do I get them to stop blocking?????

AGAIN! When I am playing scrabble I want to be able to go to Dictionary and Two Letter words when I am playing the game - these are being blocked much to my aggravation! How do I stop the blocking?

Hmm, what site is this game on?
Is the Dictionary part of the same page, or a separate page/add-on in Firefox, or a completely separate program?

How do i get itunes or any other program for ipod to play one song and then stop instead of contiuing playing. I need it to be in the same playlist and ready to play the next song when I press play?

Good luck. I tried to do this to cue sound effects for a theater, and never found anything. iTunes will definitely *not* do this, nor was I able to find any player that would play one song at a time in a single playlist.
In my case, I ended up using AutoHotkey to tie individual tracks to the keys on an external keypad. This was an excellent solution for my problem, but I don't think AHK runs on Macs.
One workaround is to make a folder, and fill it with *shortcuts* to the songs you want (ie, the actual files). You can change the names to start with numbers to get them in the right order. Then if you double-click on one it will play just that song. You'll still have to double-click on each song.
Might be a good time to learn AppleScript It would also be pretty easy to write a Java app to do this.

When I share a video with fcpx and it goes to Quicktime, the last few seconds goes mute. I checked the clip and sent that the same route and all is fine. It is only when I send the whole 3gb video. Any ideas?

TS1424 downloaded an entire album and everything is fine on my iPod, but on the computer 7 tracks have an exclamation point and when I try to play those track I get a message that the original files are missing.

Exlamation point on 7 tracks from an entire album, all the others are fine. It won't play on the laptop, I get an error message that the original files are missing. But they play fine on the iPod.

Try deleting those missing tracks from your computer's iTunes, connect the iPad to your computer and do File > Transfer Purchases - that should copy them back from the iPod

I upgraded my iPod Touch 4th Gen yesterday. Now it won't play music, which is the main thing I use it for. Over 11,000 songs [it's a 64GB model] -- will I actually have to restore the device and re-add all that music?

I upgraded my iPod Touch 4th Gen yesterday. Now it won't play music, which is the main thing I use it for. Over 11,000 songs [it's a 64GB model] -- will I actually have to restore the device and re-add all that music?
[Music files are still there, and I can play them on my computer directly from the iPod [just one track at a time] but not in the usual way, through headphones.]
On the Summary page of iTunes for the iPod, it shows 50-plus gigabytes of "Other" content and no music, which was not previously the case. I assume this is related to the problem.
I can bring up individual tracks on the iPod and see cover art, but cannot play the music.

iCloud is free, iTunes match is $25 a year.
I had the same problem and when I went to Settings I had 0 songs, even though they were obviously still there since I only had 15GB free on my 64GB device.
I decided to do a complete reset/restore of my 4th gen iPod Touch, Bad move! I've been messing with it for hours, and it simply won't restore--it keeps hanging on a black screen with an Apple logo and a progress bar at about 10%, sometimes it goes completely blank and tries again, with the same result. (I've posted my question/plea for help here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19735862 )
I'm ready to bang my head against the wall! I can put the device in recovery mode, connect to iTunes on my computer, and get it back to the setup screen, but when I go through the process again and try to do an iCloud backup I get the same reset/restore loop.
I could start from scratch, but I really, really, really don't want to go through all of my hundreds of apps, reinstall them one by one, etc. etc. etc.
I thought that once I started using iCloud, I didn't need to sync with iTunes anymore--guess I was wrong.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Does it go through properly this time?

Hi! I have a library of around 1000 songs on my iTunes, I recently synced my phone and all was lost, my partner has the same songs on hers with a different sign in, but not backed up anywhere, any suggestion on how I can store her tunes in my account ??? Then sync them to mine? When I sign her phone into her account I get a message warning that if I sync the dogs on her phone will be replaced by the ones in the library! But as there are no songs there I'm reluctant to continue!!! Please help this non techi guy.!!!!!

Hello Solid Buck,
Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing. It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone, but when you connect it to iTunes, iTunes only shows you one copy of the song on your iPhone.
In this situation, I recommend deleting the individual songs that do not play directly from your iPhone. I found the steps to do this on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf):
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

When I want to randomly play (shuffle) all my songs, it seems that the same songs are being played. I've got over 13,000 songs loaded - it seems to me that I shouldn't be getting any repeats.
