How can I get my songs purchased through iTunes to play on a windows phone
My wife recently got a HTC One M8 (windows) phone and wants to transfer her music purchases over to her new phone. How can the AAC protection be removed so the music will play on something other than an Apple product?
AAC is not protection, it is just an audio file format, like MP3.
Itunes purchases have not been DRM protected for many years.
Convert the songs to an audio file format that the new phone will play, then follow the directions for the phone to put the music on it.

TS2776 How do I get my songs in I-Tunes to play consecutively with Windows 8?
How do I get my songs to play consecutively in I-Tunes with Windows *?
In the Songs view hold down CTRL and click any empty checkbox. Alternatively use CTRL+A to select all, then right-click and click Check Selection from the pop-up menu.
I'm assuming you're not using checkboxes to manage what gets synced to any devices, otherwise you'll want to capture the current set of checked tracks into a playlist first and sync with that in future.

I just recently had my hard drive replaced and lost all of my music and photos from it. I have all of my music and photos backed up onto my iPad and iPhone via iCloud.
I was able to download all of my purchased music from iTunes, back onto my MacBook. The problem is, how do I get the other music and photos from my iPad, back onto my MacBook?Is there any possible way to backup music that I did not purchase from iTunes on to iCloud?
No.
... if I happened to break my iPad, or if something happened to my Laptop.
If you like your music library, back up your laptop.
If you lose or break your iPad, you can sync your iTunes music library to a brand new one. You will lose nothing.
If you lose your laptop, or it crashes, or becomes virus-infested, you can restore your iTunes music library from your backup. You will lose nothing. Without a backup though, your music resides only on the iPad, and extracting it will require the assistance of third party (paid) utilities. Worse, there is no guarantee they will continue to function after some future iOS upgrade, since the iPad is not designed to work that way.
There are dozens of questions every day from people who lost their iTunes music when their laptop crashed. Your laptop will crash - it's only a question of when. -
How can I get the songs on my iPhone to play since updating to iOS 5.1.1?
Hi guys,
I have an iPhone 3Gs and I've imported CD's into iTunes on my mac mini and synced it with my iPhone. Since I installed the latest iOS on my iPhone, some of the songs don't play all the way through, they skip to the next song. I listened to the songs in my iTunes library and each song plays through. Last night I tried to resolve the issue by removing the songs from my iPhone, syncing it again and adding the songs but it didn't work.
Can anyone tell me what steps I need to take to resolve this issue?
Thanks Guys :-)Anybody?

How do I get movies I purchased through iTunes on my old Mac onto my new Mac?
I bought a new Macbook to replace my old one and can't figure out how to transfer the movies I bought on one to the other?
Copy everything from your old computer to your new one, as you would do any time you get a new computer.
Type "move itunes library" into the google search bar.
You can just copy your entire itunes folder from one computer to the other. -
How can I get the songs in my playlists to play in the order listed?
I have an iPod touch gen. 4 that I got two months ago. According to iTunes, the firmware is up to date. I have created many playlists, and I always start playing songs at the top of the list. However, the next song it plays (after the first one) is never the second song in the list. I created my playlists using iTunes.
Thanks!
At first I didn't understand your reply; I didn't know about the additional audio controls (that are hidden by default) or that there was a Shuffle icon in them. I had only seen the Shuffle choice at the top of the playlist. I think shuffle must have been turned on by default; I didn't turn it on. I found that it's not necessary to turn on Repeat in the Now Playing screen to turn off shuffling, though.
So if other readers have this problem, do this:
Play a song in your playlist.
Tap the display once in the Now Playing screen (it's either the album artwork or the default graphic) to display the additional audio controls.
Tap the the Shuffle icon on the right if it's blue (indicating shuffle is turned on). It will turn gray (indicating shuffle is turned off).
Your playlist will now play in order. -

I am going through a divorce and she has the computer. I'm trying to tranfer my music to a new computer but for about 100 songs its asking for her authorization password that I dont have. How can I get these songs transfered or can I?
It sounds like two Apple accounts were used in the purchase of songs, yours and hers. Assuming she won't give you her password, you're kinda stuck. For $129 or so you can repurchase them all.
By the way, if she has the computer and it has your account info in it, you ought to change your password. -
I purchased an ablum thru itunes on my phone and it says i purchased the songs on itunes but when i go on my music it says i have to repurchase all the songs how can i get the songs with out havin to pay again
Whether you can redownload music depends upon what country that you in. If you are using your computer's iTunes then does music show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (on your phone you might be able to redownload media via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app) ? If music shows there, but not that album, then check to see if it's hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
If you aren't in a country when you can redownload music and it's still on your phone then you should be able to copy it over from the phone via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. -

I bought a few songs on itunes but the songs appear in grey letters and I cannot transfer them to my iphone. I've bought/rented TV shows/movies since so there isn't an issue with my account. How can I get these newly purchased songs onto my iphone?
You made a purchase and exhausted the credit on your card before it processed. All purchases are final. Contact iTunes Store support. You need to settle up before you can purchase or download anything else.

When I synced my phone with my mac, the music that I had in my phone got transferred to my mac. 140 songs to be exact, however I can no longer see the songs on my phone, only the purchased album I have appears. How can I get the songs I had back?
Connect your phone to computer, and sync like this. Check the boxes for the playlists, artists, albums you want to sync. Then click Apply. If you have enough space on your phone, you can choose Entire music library.
