    I baught Inhuman Rampage by Dragonforce off of itunes and on my itunes library it works fine. However on my ipod itself, when I play the album it keeps skipping to track 5 which is the only song off the album it will play.

    Does anyone know what the problem is and how it might be resolved?

    Thanks in advance. :)

    I bought one song off this album, Through Fire and the Flames, and I had the same problem, it'd play fine on the computer, but not on my iPod. Yet Fury of the Storm worked fine on both.

    I don't really know what the problem is though.

    My solution: whack your iPod.

    Trust me, it works. Satisfaction guaranteed. :lol:

    Hmmm, whacking electrical items is kinda fity-fifty. Usually works, but I whacked my iPod once, and the hard-drive arm detached, and it stopped working. Had to get it sent off for repairs, and I was lucky it was under warranty by about a week.

    I'd complain to Apple, not us, as there's not really much we can do.

    I wasn't complaining. I was just seeing if anyone knew how to resolve the problem. Evidently I wasted my time.

    Have you tried restoring your iPod? Sometimes with the purchased music, I found that after awhile the songs stopped working and then they worked fine when I erased everything on my iPod and reloaded everything.

    Oh no, I didn't say you were complaining really to us. I just suck at wording sometimes. Seriously, for an issue like this, there isn't much we can do, as it's Apple's DRM probably stopping you from playing it on my iPod and such, so they messed up somewhere.

    I'm excited for the DRM-Free iTunes Plus that they just recently got, but they don't have many songs on it yet.

    I would suggest to download the album from a P2P network, torrent etc. Since you've bought the album legally anyway I can't imagine you getting in any kind of trouble. Not that you would anyway.

    Although they don't contain DRM, they contain your name within them, so don't try to share them.

    yeah our family doesn't buy anything made by apple. I could make a huge rant about why there are OTHER mp3 players you can buy that may be BETTER than ipods (oh, unthinkable!). its just that that's all people know about, and they don't want to go searching for a better mp3 player and like buying songs off itunes because its legal. oh how I harvest a dislike for those who own an ipod/mac.

    I harvest a temptation to warn your ass for such a stupid remark but am feeling nice today even though you dislike me for no reason, so you lucked out.
