• iTunes skips to next song after about a minute into a song.
    12 replies, posted
I've been having this problem with a song on iTunes, it never plays through to the end, it always skips to the next song when it gets about a minute into it. I look at Apple's support page and the forums and it seems that a few other people have been having this problem since the update to version 9.0, but I can't find a solution to it. Does anyone here know how to fix it?
Do you [I]need[/I] to use iTunes? there are better alternatives.
That doesn't help me fix this...
[QUOTE=ilolled;18809984]Do you [I]need[/I] to use iTunes? there are better alternatives.[/QUOTE] I know this is a controversial opinion, but I reckon iTunes is pretty decent. I [u]need[/u] to use it for my iPod, so why bother going to the effort of setting up two programs to play my music when iTunes already does a fine job for me?
I use winamp primarily so I don't have to alt-tab out of games because I don't have enough ram it takes forever to access anything outside of the game. The global hot-keys are very useful because my g11 media-keys don't work on win 7 for some strange reason.

Have you installed the keyboard drivers?
Are the start and stop times settings changed in the Get Info > Options tab?
The file may be corrupt or there may be a boundary in the play time like SirKillsAlot said.
[QUOTE=SirKillsAlot;18826138]Are the start and stop times settings changed in the Get Info > Options tab?[/QUOTE] I checked that but it was set right. [QUOTE=andersonmat;18826750]The file may be corrupt or there may be a boundary in the play time like SirKillsAlot said.[/QUOTE] Yeah, it was probably corrupted, I deleted it and redownloaded it, now it works fine.
Right click a song, Get Info, Options Tab. Check that the songs are at the correct start/stop time. Someone may have, for a prank, set them all to end after 1 minute.

Maybe this might help you. [url]http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1713172&start=0&tstart=0[/url]
I have this a lot with m4a files, the file wouldn't happen to be of that extension by any chance?
