Why do some songs not play through entirely when they have in the past?

In both iTunes and on my iPhone and iTouch, certain songs that used to play completely now stop with just less than a minute left on them.  I checked "Info" on the songs and nothing is set to stop the song before it reaches the end.  Any thoughts?

It is from iTunes not the web. The link is a screenshot of what happens in iTunes.

    When I add contacts to my iphone they move to icloud, but the contact does not move from icloud to my pc (like they have in the past).  I have check settings and they seem fine.  What else can I do?

    Go through the troubleshooting steps listed inder "Troubleshooting iCloud Contacts update or setup issues with Microsoft Windows (Microsoft Outlook)" in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3998.  In particular, make sure the iCloud add-in is active within Outlook.

  • Shuffle gen4 tunes do not play as loud as they did on the gen2

    I now have the new shuffle gen4 and my tunes do not play as loud as they did on the gen2, I have adjusted max vol settings under devices in itunes and even tried maxing out the volume per mpeg file,. no joy!,   is there less amplification on gen4?, anyone know please?

    Thanks for reply SM150, I only use Sony in-ear phones, however they provide an excellent amplification on  the gen2 shuffle, this is def reduced when I play back the same song on the gen4 using same earphones!
    I do however use an older version of itunes on the gen2, this would be the only difference,.. I'm thinking that most people possibly do not notice this difference as you would have to compare the song on both shuffles,. it may only be a 10% reduction say, but for some of my recorded music, that extra % is really missed!

  • Why are some songs not fully downloading?

    Most of the songs that I've downloaded lately are not playing fully. They're stopping less than halfway through and skipping to the next song. I know this is happening to others also, is there any way I can fix this? It's rather unfair, since my mum has payed for all these songs, yet there's no point even buying them if I can't listen and enjoy them. Thus, I was wondering is there anything I can do, or must it be repaired by iTunes? Also, have iTunes aknowledged this problem? Thanks!

    Does the track play correctly in Quicktime Player or another media player?  If it does then it is an iTunes issue.  If it doesn't then it is possible the file was not completely downloaded, or is corrupt.  If you are in a country where re-downloading is possible (iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability by Country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085), delete the track and download again (Downloading [using iOS or computer] past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519).  See tips on downloading in https://discussions.apple.com/message/19097773

    Incomplete playback seems to be reported several times a day here.  I don't recall this happening before iTunes 10. I would suggest posting feedback to Apple so they aware of an issue.

  • Why do some podcasts not play on my touch?

    I download podcasts with Itunes. When I sync to my 1st Gen Ipod Touch most play fine, but some will not play on the touch. I get a message that there are some podcasts that will not play on my touch. They are all downloaded with Itunes and in the MP4 format. There are other shows in the same "sieres" that play just fine. But some episodes don't sync. They play OK in Itunes. How do I get them to sync to my touch?

    Hi AC,
    Thanks for that.
    I have Apple TV 1 & only use Handbrake.
    An example of 2 problem videos:
    High Society
    MPEG_4 (Base Media / Version 2): 1.09GiB
    1 Video stream: AVC
    1 Audio stream: AAC
    Encoded date: UTC
    Tagged Date: UTC
    Writing Application: Handbrake 0.9.5 2011010300
    Video 1290kps, 720*416 (16:9), at 25 fps, AVC ([email protected]) (CABAC / 4 Ref Frames)
    The Marine
    MPEG_4 (Base Media / Version 2): 1.53GiB
    1 Video stream: AVC
    1 Audio stream: AAC

    To a layman like me, these specs look similair to specs of my non-problem videos.
    e.g.
    The Pawnbroker
    MPEG_4 (Base Media / Version 2): 764 MiB
    1 Video stream: AVC
    1 Audio stream: AAC

  • Audio on some songs not playing - iTunes Library hosted External Hard Drive

    Since moving my music to an external hard drive connected to my Airport Extreme, audio on some tracks will not play. Seemingly at random, songs will just silently move through the track time. Visually it looks as if the tracks are playing, the iTunes timer-cursor moves through the track as if audio is playing. Instead of playing the audio I hear x:xx minutes of silence.  If I rewind the song to the begining audio will play as it should.  I wasn't having this issue when music was hosted locally. There's doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason which tracks are play and which don't.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.
    Cheers!

    Try starting iTunes with the option key down. Then click "Choose Library" and navigate to your new library.

  • Some songs not playing on iPod in iPhone

    I've had about 4 iPhones over the past few years and before that i had a second generation iPod nano. Over this period of time, I purchased a lot of music thru iTunes either on my computer or thru the one in iPhone. I then transferred music over from each iPhone to the new one. Usually this has worked fine, however since I upgrade to 4S, I've noticed that songs I have purchased thru iTunes on past iPhones (or the old iPod) no longer play. Although when just testing out different ones now I notice some old ones will play and others won't. I'm not sure if it's just a random issue or not. If I have it on shuffle and it comes to one of those songs, it either stops, or oddly enough, it will start playing a different song but still show the other song's album cover and information. If I play a song individually and it doesn't work, it will either just do nothing or it will skip to the next song immediately. I can't quite figure out what's happening with this but I'm guessing it has to be a migration issue.
    Has anyone else experienced this and know how I can fix it? Is it just a matter of authorizing something within iTunes or iPhone?
    Please let me know. Thanks!
    -Pooja

    This is actually happenening on my non-itunes bought songs...basically songs that got converted from another source...perhaps from my old MP3 player from Sony...the problem is, they used to work on my ipod, and now they don't. I did try resetting the ipod, but that didn't seem to help.

  • Why do some slides not play in preview? Yet...

    I have a presentation put together over several versions of Keynote (within the past year). I was adding some slides and found that the new slides did not play when I previewed the presentation full screen, but they do appear correctly when I export the whole thing to Quicktime.  Has anyone noticed this happening?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the heads up. I'll see if I still have the old version, though I think i deleted it.
    It would be gracious of Apple to advise its loyal users that they (Apple) have broken a program in terms of legacy files. So we don't waste our time using the "improved" version. A simple advisory like "Don't use this on earlier files."
    Thanka again.

  • Why are some songs not available for ringtones?

    I had a ringtone on my old RAZR phone and loved it. I would like to make it my ringtone on my Iphone. The song is available in Itunes and I saw another post that said some songs even though they don't have a "bell" in the ringtone column can still be made into ringtones. I have the CD, but I downloaded the song anyway and it tells me that song is no longer available for ringtones. How do I go about asking Apple/Itunes to make it available again?

    Best thing is to call Apple Support in your country, and/or to post your feedback at:

  • Why do some webpages not finish loading images when using cellular data instead of WiFi?

    I'm using iPhone 6 64gb. The problem existed with iOS 8.0.0 and the iOS 8.0.2 update.
    I have had trouble with webpages loading slowly over AT&T LTE. Sites with multiple images frequently have trouble loading all the images entirely. Instead, the unloaded portion of the image fills in with black or the image fails to load at all. If I switch to WiFi when available and refresh the page, the images will usually reload completely. I never had this problem with the iPhone 5s on the same websites.

    I'm on AT&T with an iPhone 5 first gen. This problem is happening across iPhone4s al of the way to iPhone6+
    Thought it was only affecting newer iPhones with new Graphic Processors but I later ruled that out.
    Seems to only be happening on LTE / 4G. Is not affected on WIFI for me.
    I clear cache, crash browser and even reset the phone but will still get unexpected results in LTE or 4G.
    The images seem to be getting prematurely cached and are only partially rendering.
    When I save the these half loaded images in photoshop I get a warning that they are damaged and/or truncated.
    I have saved images out as PNG and JPGs renders poorly.
    About the images-
    These images are only 15k and there are 16 on the page so I can't see why they would get bottlenecked when loading.
    also, there is no background-color of black anywhere in the CSS.
    Note the TV-Like static on the bottom image similar to the comment  ryzer08 above.

  • Why does apple sell phones with "INTERNATIONAL WARRANTY" when they cant service the phone in India, which has been bought outside India ? Whats the use of their registered service centers ?

    i got my iphone 5 as a gift from my friend when he went on a business tour to Dubai. i have a got problem with the native camera app and i contacted the customer care more then 3-5 times and they finally gave me a solution to check with the service centers avialble in  my city. i went all the way there from my place and they said you cant service your phone over here since its has been bought outisde India ! then why do APPLE ship phones ? why do they have REGISTERED SERVICE CENTRES in India ? why do they sell apple products with the tag INTERNATIONAL WARRANTY ?

    There is a problem insofar as you did not buy the phone.   Any warranty would therefore apply to the buyer.   What I would suggest is this ...
    With the receipt in your hand, telephone the store where it was purchased.  Explain the situation and ask them how you should proceed.    You may find they'll only deal with your friend but if he/she is willing, it can still be pursued in your friend's name.
    Once you have agreed a way of getting it serviced you will need to return the phone, and as I suggested, by a registered post system that requires proof of delivery.  Most postal services do this.
    Pack the phone, preferably in its original box and surround it with extra packing. You do not want anyone to have grounds to say it was further damaged in transit.
    Include a dated letter stating what the fault is and affix to that a copy of the receipt.
    I hope you are successful.   Thank you for the star.

    - For the X-ray problem go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn off White on Black
    - For the syncing problem make sure that you have the right boxes checked for the syncing mode you are using. See:
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
    - Is the iPod signed into the iTunes account that purchased the music?
    - Was the iPod previously synced to another computer?

  • Why do some songs I've imported from cd's skip to the next song after a few seconds of play?

    This causes the songs to do the same once i've put them on my ipod. Songs purchased through iTunes play properly...

    Are you in a country, where you can download past purchases again?
    Then delete the three bad songs from your iTunes Library and download them again from the store:
    See: Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    With iTunes '11Go to the iTunes Store
    Make sure that you have "Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases" enabled in your iTunes preferences by going to iTunes > Preferences under the Store tab. Then, click OK.
    If you're not already signed in, choose Store > Sign In, and enter your Apple ID and password.
    After you've signed in, click the Library button located in the upper-right of the iTunes Store.
    Navigate to your iTunes library for the respective content type you wish to download using the content selector in the upper-left. Choose Music to download songs, Movies to download movies, and so on.

  • Why are some songs not available in the U.S. iTunes Store?

    There is a song called "The Moment I Knew" by Taylor Swift. I want to get it off of the U.S. iTunes Store, but it's only available as a ringtone, not a song. And the weirdest thing is that the song is available in other countries along with the Deluxe Edition of Red, but in the U.S., Taylor Swift usually releases the bonus tracks as singles. I need to know!!!

    It is not currently available in the US Store. So, you won't be able to get it via iTunes. You can purchase the Red Deluxe CDs at Target, which has the song on them.
