[QUOTE="ToastyKen, post: 807609, member: 88208"] Okay, I know this thread is from 4 years ago, but I just had this problem and found this thread, so maybe it'll help other people who find it, too. I had this same problem with a given song would always play over computer speakers. I noticed that under the "Kind" column, they said "QuickTime" instead of "MPEG". Here's how to fix it: Select a song that doesn't play and choose File > Show in Finder All the songs that wouldn't play for me had a ".mpg" extension instead of ".mp3" for some reason. Once I changed them to .mp3, they worked! Of course, it only worked because they really were mp3s, but just had the wrong file extension. :) [/QUOTE]
