Why do some songs "drop" off a video clip???

I purchased songs from ITunes to add to video clips in an IMovie project.  However, some of these songs always drop off the clips.  The timeline shows the name of the song, but there is no audio.  Other songs work fine.  Just about every affected song shows a yellow warning with an exclamation point on it.
Anything you can help me with?
Thanks in Advance.

This may be happening because there is no album name for those songs. Since the song with an album title does show up, try naming the albums for the other three songs. They'll probably show up.

  • Why are some songs cut off early?

    I just transferred my iTunes library from my old macbook (where it was working fine) to my new macbook pro. I notice many songs cut off before finishing, usually all the songs from a same album. I downloaded my past purchases from icloud and still happens. My ipod, which I now synced with my new macbook is (obviously) doing the same. Anyone have any bright ideas to resolve this? I guess Apple is too busy counting all the money from us suckers who have bought their hardware and/or paid for music downloads from iTunes to take care of this.

    I am having the same problem.  I moved my files from an old Windows XP machine to a new Windows 7 machine.  I put them in the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder thinking they would all be added to my library and work just fine.  Now I noticed that all songs for the same Artist get cut off at the same point in time.  For one artist, it was 2:25.  Any song shorter than that worked fine.  Any song longer got cut off.  For another artist, it was 2:17.  It seems to be more with songs I downloaded from iTunes.  Songs that came from CDs that I own and imported seem to be fine but I haven't checked every song.  Any help Apple?

  • HT4914 why do some songs grayed out and only available when connected on wifi when trying to stream on iphone?

    why do some songs grayed out and only available when connected on wifi when trying to stream on iphone?

    I had this problem too - of grayed out music I could only play when in WIFI.  I noticed when looking in iTunes, these grayed song were not chosen by me to sync on to my iPhone. They were stored in iCloud.  I went to Settings > Music and then turned off "Show All Music" so only music that has been dowloaded to my iPhone will be shown. 
    I don't have iTunes Match, so you may have a different issue than what I had.

  • Why are some songs in a "protected MPEG-4 audio" format

    Why are some songs I've purchased in a "protected MPEG-4 audio" format?

    iTunes store used to sell its music that way several years ago, but then removed DRM protection as a standard format I think 2 years ago.  How long ago did you make the purchase?  I don't think they still use it on any audio now, but it is definitely used on video.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.

  • Hey why does some songs seem to be louder then others?

    Hey why does some songs seem to be louder then others? This is mostly noticeable between downloaded vs Imported cds..  Or is it my imagination?

    It isn't your imagination, you'll find that older recordings have lower gain and will sound softer. You can use sound check to somewhat balance this out if you want.

  • Why are some songs on my phone in pale text and I cannot play them

    Why are some songs on my phone in pale text and I cannot play them
    the songs are in the library

    I had the same problem when only about 5% of my 11,000 song collection on my Ipad would play after downloading OS 7.0.  I re synced my Ipad with ITunes on my MacBook selecting no music and all of the music was erased from the Ipad.  I then re-synched it selecting all music, all songs re-loaded, and all songs play just fine.

  • Why is my iMac dropping off as shared volume- Back-to-My-Mac

    I have a 21.5" iMac 2.5GHz mid 2011, 12GB ram running Lion 10.7.4.
    It is connected via ethernet to a gen 5 Airport Extreme, so Airport on the iMac is off. I am also running a MBP .
    Both are on iCloud Back-to-My-Mac. When the iMac is awake, it shows up on the MBP as a shared volume. After it goes to sleep, it disappears as a shared volume. Wake for network activity is checked on the iMac. Sometimes it takes a little bit of time, but it always drops off after it goes to sleep.
    I don't remember having this problem before. The only thing I have changed is that I had been using a 1st gen Airport Extreme and upgraded to this 5th gen.
    I've checked everything I can think of but the problem persists.
    Anyone have any thoughts as to why the iMac keeps disappearing?

  • HT1688 Why will some songs from my iPhone not transfer onto my iTunes & vice versa?

    I've had the same phone for about a year and a half and it's always been fine up until a few months ago. Some songs just show up in iTunes but are shaded and there's a little circle all the way on the left side of the row. I'm not sure why this is happening and it's rather frustrating. Any suggestions?

    Should've mentioned in your post.
    Now try de-selecting all the songs in iTunes, and sync.
    Do a Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data
    Select the songs you want and sync again.

  • Why do some songs re-download from iCloud in 256 Variable?

    Some songs will download from iCloud in 256-bit, others in 256 Variable. Why that? All were uploaded/matched from Apple Lossless (ALAC).

    I don't know this for sure, since I have not seen this behavior, but this is my speculation.
    Songs that are matched will download from the iTunes Store in straight 256 Kbps, since that is how they are encoded. The VBR downloads are probably coming from tracks that are uploaded, and this is how you've got your import settings set up. Any ALAC files that are not matched will have a copy made of them and that will be uploaded so I'm guessing that whatever your import settings are is how the files will be encoded.

  • Why are some songs only available for other countries iTunes Stores

    I have tried to purchase some songs from the French ITunes Store, but I got an alert saying I had to switch over to the US store to do so. I did, but when I searched for the songs in the US store, I could not find them. Why is this so? Is there any way I can get the songs from the French iTunes Store?
    Thanks for the help

    Sorry, I forgot to mention that I do live in the US. I assume that it works the same, that Apple doesn't have permission to sell the French songs in the US. Thank you for the quick response.

  • Why do some songs in my library now only play for a few seconds and then skip onto another song?

    Some songs that previously played without issue now just play for the first 10 seconds or so and then skip onto the next song

    I wish I could provide you an answer, but I am experiencing the same issue myself. It's somehow iTunes related from what I have been able to figure out.
    Here are a couple of clues I've picked up so far:
    Somewhere between 20-30% of the songs in my library are affected.
    I have only seen AAC encoded songs exhibit the problem (iTunes purchased, not imported).
    I haven't seen the issue with any songs I bought after Jan 20, 2009.
    Playing the same song file in quicktime doesn't reproduce the issue.
    Affected songs skip on both iTunes and the iPod app of my iPhone 4 alike.
    Forcing the song to stop at the end through the song options doesn't resolve the problem.
    Songs skip (end) at random times from song to song, but repeatedly for each song at the same location.
    The biggest clue that I've found is that when I find an affected file, almost all songs I purchased on that date exhibit the same problem. (I have only found a few examples when it does not affect every song on the same purchase date group.)
    Some details about my setup:
    Windows 7 Professional
    iTunes version 10.6.3.25
    iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1.1
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
