Song Goes On, But Won't Play...

i.Angel · 01-08-2006, 03:49 AM

Hey guys, pretty sure this is the place to post this. OK, I got an iPod video for christmas and didn't like it and I needed the extra money for my new computer. I took it back and got my 300 bucks. My friend for christmas also got a video and he has an old mini too. I bought his mini for 20 bucks which is awesome because I need a cheap, large MP3 player right now. All my songs loaded on there easily (However, I had to select them all and drag them onto it becuase it won't just copy the library for some reason) but right now I am trying to put Slipknot's "My Plague" on there. The song goes on, but when I go to play it, the screen shows the song and artist, but then just switches to the next song! Does anyone know anything that could be obvious that I'm not seeing?

I've already tried downloading it again but still!

Just open it up in another program and re-output it, if that doesn't work then open it in iTunes and convert it to AAC that always works for me!

You want to use Itunes to transfer the songs to your ipod.

Ya. I'm opening through iTunes and I've tried the song about 3 times, all three of them with different downloads... guess my iPod doesn't like metal

What format is the song in? (MP3, wav, etc...)

i.Angel · 01-09-2006, 01:13 AM

MPEG layer 3... thats what the properties say at least.

(MPEG layer 3 = MP3)
