Hi tria3,

In my experience, the songs that are skipping or are not playing may not have transferred over to your iPod correctly.

Please only attempt these steps if all of your music is on your computer: I would advise you to uncheck the "Sync Music" checkbox, and apply the changes (so there is ultimately no music syncing to your iPod).

Once you have done that, recheck the "Sync Music" checkbox, and apply the changes once more. This will instruct iTunes to completely remove all music from your iPod, and then copy the files once more. If you have a large amount of music, this initial sync may take a while.

If the above does not resolve your issue, see the following articles:

hi mat00,

thanks for your answer.i tried everything you said..nothing worked....finally i tried converting these songs to itunes using a thrid party programm..i had the songs on window pc so i used a third party programm to converte them and add them to itunes.and it worked.it seems that there had sthng to do with the songs decode or block from apple.

i dont really know the cause of the problem but this worked.so when i transfered the converted songs to my ipod ,i could listened to them again.

thanks for your help!
