Downloaded 3+min song only plays half of it, why?

Hi @MJ,

I understand you downloaded a song from the iTunes Store and only partially plays back, is that right? Is the playback issue only happening with this one song? If so, I would suggest deleting the song and redownloading it from the iTunes Store.

Delete music, movies, apps, and other content from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Remove songs, albums, or playlists from the Music app

1. Find the song, album, or playlist that you want to delete.
2. Tap the More Options icon on the right side of the screen.
3. Tap Delete.
   
   
   
4. When prompted, tap Delete [Purchased or Playlist] to confirm.

Download your past purchases

On an iPhone or iPod touch

1. Open the iTunes Store app.
2. From the menu the bottom of the screen, tap More.
3. Tap Purchased, then tap Music.
4. Tap Not on This iPhone or Not on This iPod.
5. Scroll to find the song that you want to download, then tap it.
6. Tap the Download icon to the right of the title. Your song downloads to your device.

Take care,

Hi @MJ,
