Why are some of my songs cut off, or don't play at all?

So recently a few of the songs that I've purchased have been screwed up. Some cut off midplay like the whole song wasn'tdownloaded or something. And other songs just won't play at all! It's super frustrating to buy something and have it screwed up.

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.

    Hi smiilee,
    Have you tried resetting your phone (hold down the Home and Power buttons a the same time and continue to hold until the Silver Apple appears). Once the Home screen comes back up, see if your Music is OK.
    If it is not, then, have you sync'd your phone to an iTunes library on a computer? If so, then hook it up to the computer, uncheck the "Sync Music" option so that no music is sync'd and then sync the phone. This should delete everything on the phone. Then go back and re-check the "Sync Music" option, and select any other criteria you want on that screen, and then sync again. This should put back all of your music.
    Let me know if you have any questions,

  • Why are some of my songs that i have downloaded into itunes not showing in the cloud?

    why are some of my songs that i have downloaded into itunes not showing

    If you have content eligible for icloud then you can stream it directly. Of course any local content requires your computer on and running iTunes to be able to see your library.

  • Why are some of my songs listed in red?

    Why are some of the songs and albums listed in red in my library?

    You tell us, did you do anything?
    Install iTunes 11?
    Put songs into a Playlist Folder?
    Is the Playlist a Smart Playlist?
    Number two, putting songs into a Playlist Folder is guaranteed to cause songs to be "lost" from the list, eventually.
    So - if you need more help than the possible causes listed here, you need to tell us a bit more about the issue. One assumes for instance (since you've posted in the iTunes for Windows forum), that this is ocurring in iTunes. What devices are you Syncing with your iTunes Library, and what are the Playlists like on them?

  • Why are some of my songs not in order in my albums?

    I was wondering why are some of my songs not in order in my albums? This wasn't a problem when I first used i-tunes, but I had to download a newer version of i-tunes to get my sister's ipod to work.  For Example my album "AC DC Live" has track #3 Back in Black as the first song listed.  How can this be fixed?

    Hello igho234,
    Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities. You don't mention how those songs got onto your playlist, but this article may address your issue, if they were imported from a third-party application or CD.

  • HT1711 Why do some of my songs shut off before they are finished playing?

    Why do some of my songs stop playing before they are finished?

    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.

  • Why does my itunes downloaded song cut off half way through the song

    I downloaded a Jorney song "Seperate Ways" only to find out that the song cuts off half way through. What should i do?

    I'm having this exact problem now with an iPhone 4 (not the 4S) and running software 6.1.3 with iTunes version 11.0.4.4. - The songs play fine in iTunes. In some instances I brought in the songs from CDs, in other instances I purchased from the iTunes store meaning I can't simply convert them. In either way they play silence on my iPhone around halfway through and for the remainder of the track.
    I have attempted a full restore from a backup, and then reloaded all of my music, same songs, same problem. I don't feel a manual restore would help because that means reprogramming every single app, and the music would be reloaded the same way so what difference could that make?
    Just to add insult to injury my protection plan ran out about 2 weeks ago and my phone otherwise works fine, so this can't possibly be worth purchasing another pricey plan just to be allowed to TALK to Apple.

  • Why are some of the songs I created in garageband and then pushed to itunes "ineligible for icloud"?

    I create songs in garageband on my iMac, then "share" them to itunes. I purchased Itunes Match so that I could hear them on my iphone 5 (7.1.2), but some of the songs will not show up on my phone. When I checked them on the computer, it says, "This item is ineligible for icloud". Why not?

    Aec, I'm have the same issue as well with mine.  I deleted some music a few week back to give room for sum pics and movies and now that i want to restore them from off my itunes only 1 or 2 songs are actually able to play and the rest out of the albums are greyed out and non responsive.  Have never had an issue like this b-4.  Anyone have any insight or some problems?  Thanks in advance.

  • Why are some of the songs in my music grey and I can't click on them

    Idownloaded songs on my computer, then synced them to my iPod. After I thought they downloaded, I checked my music and some of the songs were grey and I can't click on them  anyone have any solutions?

  • Some of my songs cut off randomly, and I have already restarted, etc.

    Some of my songs will cut off, 10 seconds in or 2 minutes in. I have the newest software, I've restarted it, removed the content and put it back to factory settings. All that happens is that different songs start cutting off. I have a first generation touch, any ideas?

    I keep having the exact same problem! Ive tried deleting all the songs and then reloading them and then I've tried restoring it and nothing seems to work. I would love to get help, but a phone call costs money (which it shouldn't) and the nearest Apple store is like 45 minutes away. Does anybody else have the issue that after you reload the songs on, the ones that had previously been cutting off work fine but other songs start cutting off? I would love to know what the **** is going on.

  • Why are some of my songs on my iphone grayed out after syncing to itunes on a new computer?

    After syncing my IPhone to ITunes that I had just downloaded on the new pc I just bought, I noticed that there are several songs that are now "grayed out" on my phone and won't play.  There are some songs that are just not on my phone anymore at all, but they are still in my ITunes library on my new pc. How can I get all the songs in my library on my phone and work? 

    What exactly happens when you try to redownload? Just how does it not let you?
    Are you/iPod doing anything between when the songs were there and they were gone?
    Does anybody else have access to your iPod?
