I have a song that shows in my itunes but when I click to play it, it says file is lost?

I recently went to click on a song in my itunes and an error message came up and said file not found. I have searched everywhere for the song and have had no luck. Is there any way to re-download the song from itunes?

This is not the problem. We are using quicktime on the pc's and the mac. I also tried to open the file on the pc with other programs and it doesn't recognize the file. The file opens fine on my mac but I cannot save it as a new file. It says that "the end of the file was reached." The recording was made in iShowU then edited in Quicktime Pro.

I have a song that shows in the playlist but suddenly will not play, how do I get it back?

I have a song that shows in the playlist but suddenly will not play. Itunes thinks that last time it was played was the time it "shorted" out and did not play. How do I get it back? Thanks.

Try deleting the entries from the Movies part of your library (i.e. where you are trying to play them) and see if you get the cloud symbol next to them for re-downloading in the Purchased link
As your screenshot shows your account id I've asked the hosts to remove it

Okay so I bought a song called Harlem by New Politics today off ITunes but when I clicked to play the song it said 'This computer is not authorised to play "Harlem".' So, I authorise it and I still can't play it! And no, it won't play on my IPod.

It comes up with this thing after authorisation, 'This computer is already authorised. Including this one, you have authorised 2 computers out of your available 5.' This is ******* me off. I want to play the music I freaking payed for.

Actually don't ******* worry about it. I DOWNLOADED IT ILLEGALLY YOU *****.

How do you delete songs that you purchased through iTunes but don't show up when you connect the iphone to iTunes they don't show up in music when you click on "On this phone"? I have my phone setup to manually manage music. Please help.

Hi, Mrs.Frankie57.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you want to delete a song from your iOS device on iOS 7, tap Songs, swipe the song from right to left, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.

Are the ones from the CD's on iTunes? You may just have to sync them over to the phone.

I have an iphone 4s and about a week ago i loaded a bunch of my music cd's onto it! Yesterday i tried to add about 10 more cd's! And now i go to the music icon on my phone and it shows all the albums but when i click on the album a sceen shows up that say

I got this phone a week ago and was able to put about 15 albums on it! Yesterday i went to add 10 more to my iphone 4s and all the albums show on the menu but when i click on the album tthe next sceen tells me i can buy this album at the apple store! All the albums are in my library i just cant get them back on my phone! And all the albums that were on my phone are also doing the same thing with the screen that says i can buy these from the apple store!

So after looking a bit closer i have noticed that when i have the phone plugged into the computer it shows the songs but when i dont have it plugged in and i go so the song icon on the bottom of the music menu screen it says i have no songs!

I have a similar problem and have had this before.
I rang Apple the first time and they said because I had 2 Apple ID's this can happen so I cancelled one Apple ID (which is another problem and drama in itself) and that resolved the issue.
I now have the problem again with only one Apple ID so I've transferring purchases from my iPhone and iPad to iTunes. Then I synced again and hoped for the best. Unlucky! Didn't work. Time to call Apple support 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 have a problem with my 4s camera which has come up recently. Everytime I take a picture and look it up via the 'Photos' app, it shows as blank. But when I click on edit on the blank picture, it comes up and I am able to save it back on my photo album.

But when I click on edit on the blank picture, it comes up and I am able to save it back on my photo album as a proper image. Besides, I have also experiences the camera working a bit wiered (slow and often blanks out the moment I am ready to take a photo). Any help on this pls?

Hi Noob Søren
There are a few things that are confusing in your question.
As far as I know, you dont have to install Time Machine on this OS as it is already installed for you. You only need to connect a hard drive to your computer via firewire or usb, click on the Time Machine icon, Open Time Machine Preference in the drop down menu and select a disk: your connected hard drive.
You can of course reformat this connected device, partition it into a few volumes to organise data if you so wish.
I find it strange that your mac's hard drive is divided into two volumes... perhaps this was created through bootcamp?
You can access the configuration of your hd through Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities.
Clicking on one of the icons on the right hand panel will bring the details of the contents of your hardDrive and volumes. From there you can decide to erase a partition, reformat etc....
If your hd contains more than one volume, and one of them is empty, you could decide to remove it. Back up all your important data before doing so.
Hope this helps

My iPhone 4S has decide to stop playing any of my music. All my songs are there, but when I click to play, it just scrolls through a bunch of songs and then reverts back to the play list. Anyone have any suggestions as to how to correct this? Thanks.

I am having the same issue. And today, I noticed that when I was talking on the phone, the volume went down low. I had to reboot the phone, so that the volume was up again. Mostly, though, it's my music that I am having issues with.
Same issue as listed above. iPhone 4S. IOS6.

I put songs onto my IPhone 4, and they show up under the "On This Phone" section in itunes, but when I go to play the songs on my phone, they aren't there. How can I fix this?

When you look at your iPhone, are you looking in the Music app or in the iTunes app? Be sure you are looking in the Music app, and look in the Songs category. If your songs are not here, you may want to try syncing your information again through iTunes. To do this, uncheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync in the bottom right corner of iTunes, and then recheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync again.
I hope this helps!
