You will not get recharged if you download them from the Purchased section of the iTunes Store and you are signed in with the Apple ID they were originally purchased with.

  • TS1424 I downloaded a song that I purchased from the ITunes store, but the song does not play properly.  How can I re-download the same song without having to purchase it a second time?

    I could not find an option to "report a problem".
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • Is there any way to find out all songs that I purchased from the iTunes Store?

    I have purchased many songs from iTunes Store, and I was wondering if there was a way to find which songs I would need to authorize, so I don't bother copying them to my work computer.   I can tell if I do this one at a time, but I have over 10,000 songs to go through.do
    Thanks!

    If they're in your iTunes library, try this AppleScript, courtesy of the incredibly-useful Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes:

  • I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it.  How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store?  when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again?

    I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it.  How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store?  when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again?  I have authorized my computer but none of them are in my music now.

    You buy one and only one download.
    It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
    Certainly you did not update your ipod without making sure that you had transferred anything purchased on the ipod to your computer and included it in your regular backup copy of your computer.

  • I gifted a ringtone to my sister that I purchased from the iTunes store, and it is on her phone, but we can't figure out how to get it moved to her ringtones.  Can anyone help?

    Edit > Preferences.  Select the check box for Ringtones, this will add them to the listing in iTunes. 
    Not sure that really answers your question though.

  • HT1386 When I update my IPad to the IOS 5 system will I lose my apps that I purchased from the ITunes store?

    I have an IPad 2.  I want to update it to an IOS 5.  Will I lose my apps that I purchased from the ITune store?

    What you should do anytime that you update the device is to transfer purchases from the iPad into iTunes - File>Transfer Purchases - and you should backup the iPad as well. When you update the update the device, if something goes wrong, you can restore from the backup.
    However, iTunes should ask if you want to backup before you update, but just in case create the backup yourself before you update. The backup contains your app data and settings  - so make sure you backup first. If something goes awry when you update, with regard to apps, you can download them again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought them with.
    If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.
    Transfer purchases.

  • ITunes can't locate the songs that I bought from the iTunes store on my new computer

    I just got a new computer today and I backed up all my songs from old computer onto an external hard drive. When I sent my songs over onto my new computer and freshly downloaded iTunes, the songs that I actually purchased from the iTunes store won't play. It says that the item cannot be located.

    Hello, brandma4. 
    More than likely iTunes was set to read the media on the external drive.  If this is the case and the drive is not connected when attempting to play music, you will receive these alerts.  The other possibly is that iTunes is not directed to where you placed the media on the computer.  Here are the best troubleshooting articles that direct you on how to correct this issue.

  • HT201272 What is it with songs that are not from the itunes store, but are coming from cd's and other download sources that all of a sudden do not play on my iphone and have a red stop button in a red round circle around them, behind the title?

    Songs that I have had previously downloaded from various other sources, but NOW ALL of a sudden they DO NOT PLAY on my IPHONE and DISPLAY a RED STOP BUTTON in a red round circle next to the title.  Everytime I click on it it DOESNT play.   What happen???? How can i get them to play.,   Why should i have to pay for the songs, and why are they in the ITUNES store and not in my regular playlist.

    Amazing steps you've done so far! The great news is this is very unlikely an issue with your iPhone.
    I've run into a similar issue lately as well. I narrowed it down to one song that was causing 30 songs not to sync. I removed the song from the sync list (unchecked it) and all 29 songs were able to sync.
    You may be running into a similar issue. This may be a problem with this version of iTunes, an issue with one song or a group of songs; hard to know for sure. It's important to narrow down and isolate the cause. Most imporantly get that music back on there!
    The way to narrow down the casue add just a few songs at a time (even 1, just to get that first sync finished). Manually syncing is what you'll need here.
    Plug in your iPhone, on the Summary screen (shows a picture of your iPhone, the iOS version, Restore iPhone....; etc). Under the Options area at the bottom choose to Manually Manage Videos and Music then choose Apply in the lower right. The music that's on your iPhone now should be removed from your iPhone now. You're now able to sync music manually.
    The link below explains how to drag the songs from the iTunes library on the computer on to your iPhone which will start the sync. Add just one song just to see if you can get 1 of those hundreds of songs on there. If you can, awesome! Keep adding until you find the song or group of songs that are causing this issue.

  • Why won't my applications purchased from the itunes store launch on my macbook pro? My software is up to date.

    I purchased a few games from the app store recently. I have updated all of the software on my Macbook Pro but the applications will not launch. If the problem was contained within just one application, I could have fixed it, but neither of the applications will launch. I click on them, they turn blue, but that's it. I do not have an iPhone or iTouch with which to test the applications. Could somebody tell me what is wrong with my computer/the applications and how to fix them?!

    Hello ah3636,
    Apps on the iTunes store are made for the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch and not the Mac.
    By any chance, do you mean the Mac App Store?
    Regards,

  • Do all things that have been purchased from the iTunes Store get deleted once the iPod's firmware has been updated?

    Hiya,
    The title says it all.
    Cheers, Kar

    - You can only sync with one computer/iTunes library.  It sounds like you want to switch you syncing computer.
    - To change your syncing computer you have to erase your iPod and restore the iPod.  You can try making a backup of the iPod by right-clicking on the iPod under devices in iTunes and select the backup option.  However, that option may not be available.  If not available, and if you can't get the backup file from the old computer you will have to restore to factory defaults/new computer.
    - If you update as is you iPod will be erases and replaced with what is now in the iTunes libray.  App data will be lost.

  • Is it legal to use a song purchased from the iTunes Store?

    I'd like to put a song on my website. However, that song is a song which I purchased from the iTunes Store. Is it legal for me to put that song on my website?

    No, it's not legal, not without a license from the owner of the rights to the track, usually the record company, to provide it on a web site, and such a license would be difficult to obtain and probably prohibitively expensive. Use of tracks for any purpose other than your own personal playback is also a violation of the terms of sale of the iTunes Store. If you want music on your web site, I'd suggest composing and performing your own, perhaps with GarageBand, or buying a track from one of the services that offer royalty-free licences.
    Regards.

    You copy them from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The iphone is not a backup/storage device.

  • My pc crashed and erased my itunes songs purchased from the itunes store. How do i get that content back without having to purchase them again?

    my pc crashed and erased my itunes songs purchased from the itunes store. How do i get that content back without having to purchase them again?

    I have somewhat of a similar problem. After iTunes last update, I am missing some of my purchased files of music,ringtones, and TV shows. Possibly movies, but just thought of that and did not look yet. Seems everytime there is an iTunes update, something happens, but usually an easy fix by just deleting music files from CD's that I loaded onto iTunes and no longer recognized after an update and reload from the hard drive. This time I do not have a current back up of all the music, ringtones, and tv shows I have purchased.
    So I am also wondering how can I redownload purchases without being charged when there is no file left on the hard drive. It just stays listed in iTunes though.
