Why does the Music app play videos too?

Hi,
I have been an iPod, iPhone and iPad user for quite some time, but I have always loaded my music into iTunes and transferred it manually.
Last week I took the plunge and bought my first iTunes album *applause*. I love it! Quality is awesome.
However, the album that I bought, has 5 audio tracks, and 5 video tracks. Now when I playback the album on my iPad or iPhone, it plays both the audio and video tracks. So effectively, I listen to each song twice.
This may be a stupid question but, how do I stop the music app from playing the videos?
Thanks!

i don't have any music in iCloud. I buy all my music through Amazon because it's DRM-free, download it to my PC, then put it on my phone.
i do just ignore the request and use it normally, I was just wondering why it wanted data access in the first place. iTunes radio makes sense. Thanks.

  • Why does the music app on my phone keep skipping songs?

    My music app on my iPhone 4S keeps skipping songs. It will show the album
    cover for a second then it will skip right to the next song and sometimes it will
    skip multiple songs. For example, once it skipped over an entire playlist and
    went to the screen at the end when it showed all of the songs in the playlist.
    I have update 6.0.1 and I haven't used the music app since the last update.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Mine is 18.2Mb it gets to about 37mb tops, Try logging out of the app, remove all apps that are running in the background then shut your phone down and restart, if that does not work hold the power and home button and do a hard reset. You shouldnt loose any data at all but make sure you back up anyway before hand, its just like a forced reboot of a computer really.

  • Why does the youtube app doesn't play in HD?

    Why does the youtube app doesn't play in HD? I couldn't find any option of changing the stream option also. Please help!

    Me too, ipad mini can't get YouTube app to function via the official app and the same error message," ...tap to retry", but to no avail. The app launches but it will not allow me to sign in. The drop arrow just tilts up and down and ...nothing. I can still access YouTube through Safari browser but strange, I can't find a solution to the app not opening or being able to sign in on either ipad mini or phone even though they are up to date apps.

  • TS3700 why does my music stop playing when i press the sleep/wake buttom? it says the screen turns off but the music should be playing

    This is usually a sign that your headphones are not plugged all the way in.  Make sure the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano and no silver from the plug can still be seen.
    If you are 100% positive that the earbuds are all the way in, double check to make sure the headphone jack is clean and clear of debris and/or damage.

  • Why does the Mail.app CC: field puts me first on the CC: list although I was not ?

    Why does the Mail.app CC: field always rearranges the list so I am first on the CC: list although the sender intentionally did not ?
    I did not see how and where to de-activate this unnecessary intrusion in the company's communication codes.
    iOS on my iphone, correctly leaves my name where it is in the CC: list.

    Hi starbux48,
    Yahoo! partnered with Apple to allow an IMAP style offering on the iPhone, free of charge for their users. However that feature is only available if you use the iPhone. If you want IMAP/POP access on computers then you'd need to upgrade to the Plus level account.

    why does the store app keeps loading and doesn't work ?

    Hi Peter,
    In order to analyze your issue better, we need more detailed information.
    Did you mean when you launch the Windows store app, the app can't start? Was there any prompt message or error code? Did this issue occur on all Windows Store app or specific one?

    Why does the music go off when the sceen light goes off

    This is usually an indication that your headphones/earbuds are not plugged all the way in.  Double check the connection and make sure that no metal from the jack is showing.

  • Why does the remote app not work with Apple TV 1st gen anymore.

    This is a review I just left on the app store, I am posting it word for word, and i hope that dowsnt complicate anything. My hope is that this finds the right party to address the situation, and if any user has a fix, I would love to hear it.
    I have an Mac mini running iTunes as a server, I have 2 airport expresses to allowing airplay to them for different rooms, and I also have 2 Apple TV first gens... I can play one stream of music from the server, and have the option of playing 2 other streams of music from the apple tv's as they have a built in hard drive to sync music to. I can send any of the feeds to any o the devices in any room and i love it. This whole system used to work flawlessly... It doesn't anymore. The latest update of remote broke what was working so well. I can pull it up and see all 3 music sources, log into each and play music, no problem there. The problem is that when I want to log back into that device, it won't show what music is playing. It loads up to a trackpad... Why do I need a trackpad? the point of a wifi remote is that it interfaces directly with the library, not needing to see the display...  Annoying enough in itself as none of my devices are actually hooked up to a screen, but whatever, annoying point aside, I back out of the trackpad and refresh the device playing music... The music is playing, but won't show on my remote, I can't pause, press next song or anything. I have to start over and pick a song and override the currently playing song. Even the volume control is broken. I used to control each volume of each of the multiple devices individually, they each had a slider in the multiple speaker view, now there is only one master volume slider... One speaker is in my baby's room... If she is sleeping I don't want to have to go into the room to physically adjust that speaker, I want an individual slider like there was before.
    I used to be very happy with this app. I'm not anymore. I used to praise apple and promote the functionality of it to all of my friends. Now I'm just embarrassed when I can't control it when they are over. Embarrassed....
    As another fail.... I want to describe another point. As I have the iTunes server, it should be able to handle multiple things at once. It can to an extent... For example, I can play music from the server to an airplay device, and I can go onto my iMac, load up iTunes, click on shared libraries ad load my entire library from my server. I ca also at the same time take my iPhone, click on music, and again pull up my entire shared library of music from the wifi server... It handles this very well. I recently purchased an Apple TV 3. As it does not have a built in hard drive, it relies on content from a locally attached network or stuff from your iTunes account. So while I can use my iPhone to pull up the entire shared library while its also playing elsewhere, why can Apple TV 3 not?... It's using iOS just like my iPhone. All it was good for was airplay as an extra speaker. It wouldn't work as an extra rendered source of media using the shared library. Needless to say, that Apple TV went back to the store. Fail Apple, Fail.... That was the only reason I bought one. Maybe Apple TV 4 will actually be functional without a hard drive.

    Working fine on my system
    If on wifi, try ethernet
    Make sure router is up to date

  • Why is the music app so awful

    I probably just dont know how to use it and there arent any settings that I can find, but the tile switching thing it does drives me crazy! Why is that something that I cannot turn off?
    When listening to music, the phone goes to this tile thing that shows a bunch of albums, but there isnt any easy way I can find to get back to what is playing. There arent any buttons or swipes I have been able to find to get back to it, then if I set down and pick it up it start this portrait to landscape switching thing where I turn it one way and it moves another and so on. The only way to get back to something normal is to back out and restart music, which is the opposite of easy and intuitive.
    What am I doing wrong, there are so many things with this phone that are just hard to use that Im not sure what the hype about Apple designs are. I dont have time to research how to use an "intuitive" device and I have had this phone for a couple years and it is just not very good, but it is what my work hands out so it is what I have.
    If anyone has any real suggestions on what to do with the music app I would really appreciate it.

  • Why does my music stop playing when I sleep my screen?

    Why do songs stop playing when I sleep my screen? If my screen automatically sleeps after two minutes or I sleep it with the button or iPad smart cover the music stops playing. It only started doing this after upgrading to 5.0.1. Is this just a bug with the new software?

    Thanks Rachel, I have done that and it seemed to have taken care of the problem, though my music videos in "Video" stop playing when my iPad sleeps automatically after two minutes... I am trying to find out how to contact apple about these issues directly...

  • Why does the music on my iPhone 5 seem to stop unexpectedly, but actually keep playing without volume.

    My iPhone 5s's (which is only 3 days old) music will unexpectedly stop in the middle of playback. Upon examination of the screen, the iTunes app is still playing the music, but there is no volume. The only way to rectify this is to unplug the headphones and the re-plug them back in; which would normally stop the music, but not in this case. It simple restores the volume and continues to play.

    Hard to offer an explanation, but a reboot may solve your problem:  Press and hold BOTH the home and power butons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.  You won't lose any data or settings by a reboot.

  • Why does my music stop playing when i reply to a message?

    I just updated my iphone 4s to IOS 6.1.1 and im having trouble with it. When im playing music and I get a message, i click on the messaging tab and my music fades out and completely stops. the only way to play it again would be to go back to the music application and press play. before updating, my music would never fade out for a message, only for a call or if i was going to make a video. now its doing it for messages. any ideas how to fix it?

    Ok, I just realised that this only happens if the current page in iBooks has a video on it.  If the page has only text and images, there is no problem.
    I still think it is a bug though. If the video is not running, I don't see why the music player should be stopped. If I choose to start the video on the page, THEN the music player should be stopped.

  • Why does the Reminders app crash each time I try to open it on my iPad 2?

    At one point, a few weeks ago, I was able to use my Reminders app on my iPad 2, fairly close to perfect. Now, since then, each time I open the app, it freezes or does not allow men to complete reminders or add new ones. If I close the app from Multitasking and try to reopen, it just opens the app but it is blank. What is happening and why does it keep crashing? I like the app to set reminders for upcoming bills but the app seems useless right now until I figure out to make it stop crashing on me. Thank you!

    I am having exactly the same problem with my iPhone 4 (running 6.0.1 (10A523)). I have rebooted several times since this started occurring but it doesn't change the behavior. It was also reporting a "storage almost full" error quite often when I still have 1GB - 3GB of free space. As a troubleshooting exercise I removed all my music so there is now 20.1GB free. The storage warning no longer appears but the same issue still persists with reminders. Help, please!

  • Why does the YouTube app say "Cannot Connect to YouTube" over Wifi or 3G?

    Hi, everyone.
    When I open the YouTube app with Wifi or 3G, it says "Cannot Connect to YouTube."  I've browse a few sites, and the number one response is to reset the router.  I tried resetting the router (Latest Apple AirPort Extreme) to factory default and Restoring the iPad 2 from Backup.  I would believe the router issue to be plausible if 3G worked.  Since YouTube doesn't work over 3G, I don't believe the router is the issue.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    Thank you.
