Additional sounds download did not complete, cannot quit Garageband
Hello all,
I initiated the download for the extra sounds last night, and a separate window with my download progress popped up saying it would take about 4 hours. I left my computer on, went to bed, and checked for progress this morning. The progress window is nowhere to be found (already tried to bring all windows to front), some sounds are still greyed out, and I cannot quit GarageBand (GarageBand>Quit GarageBand is greyed out, as if the download is still in progress). Does anyone have any ideas how I can resume the download?
Thanks!
Hey there gww490,
It sounds like Garageband is not allowing you to quit it, and your sounds still aren't completely downloaded. I would start by force quitting the Garagaband application:
OS X: How to quit an unresponsive application using Force Quit
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3411
Switch to another app, such as the Finder, then choose Force Quit from the Apple menu. Select the unresponsive app in the Force Quit window, and click Force Quit.
Press Command-Option-Esc, then select the unresponsive app from the Force Quit window that appears, and click Force Quit.
Then restart your computer and try again.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

I purchased a book in advance. It is now in my library, but the word "paused" appears across the book and I cannot access. I assume the download did not complete, but I cannot seem to fix it. Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping upward on the app window (not the smaller icon) off the screen.
Then reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go. -
Video download did not complete
I purchased a TV show on Friday night, but my laptop locked up and I had to shut it down before the download was complete. Part of the file is on my computer, but it is corrupted and I get an error message when I try to either access or "Check for Purchases". How do I re-download?
Go look for a folder called "Downloads" in your iTunes Music folder. If there is such a folder, look for files that would be the partial download and delete those, so that the download starts over from the beginning. Then try again using the "Check for Purchases" command under the iTunes Advanced menu.
Hope this helps. -

The third song i downloaded skips to the next after 20 or 30 seconds. I am a first time user. I am downloading to a PC running XP.
Delete the current copies and then download again (free) from your purchased history. If the problem persists contact iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history.

This forum was so helpful with my last issue so let's try this mystery....
My son has an iPod (probably 1-2 yrs old). Somehow when I set it up it transferred all of my photos to a library on the iPod. I can't figure out how to delete the photos and he can't buy any apps....no room.
Can anyone tell me how to get that darn photo library off the iPod?
Thanks!!!If you're syncing photos from a folder, if you set up your photo syncing to sync to an empty folder, that should remove the photos from the iPod.
If you're syncing from Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements, there's advice in the following document on how to remove photos from the device:

After seeing the production of Matilda in London I purchased the whole sound track and it did not completely load. I've never had this problem before so I just forgot about it. Today I am downloading an album only to find out it's missing the voacals. Do I have to start just settling for these kinds things. I'm feeling taken.
Hello MarkFKenny,
If you feel that there is an issue with a purchase made, you can report an issue with said purchase to the folks in our iTunes Store.

ok, so i downloaded three albums (sic) and discovered the next day that on two of them there were songs which did not completely download. I quickly reported it and expected a reply within 24 hrs but Ive heard nothing back and now I cannot re-report it because it says Ive already reported it. Should I just wait? It's been three days. Thanks, mj

I lost my Ipod touch. I have downloaded Icloud but did not complete registration. I have back it up with Itunes 2 weeks ago in my computer at home. I am out of town. How can I find my Ipod touch?
In order to use Find My iPhone (or iPad, etc), your device has to be connected to iCloud with a valid ID/account, the Find my iPhone service has to be turned on (on the device), in Settings>iCloud. It sounds as though you haven't done these tasks - unfortunately, there's no way to track your lost device.
BTW, you don't "download" icloud, you register it on a device by going to Settings>iCloud and then click the ON switch and entering your ID/password (perhaps this is what you meant by downloading iCloud). -
How to remove firefox setup3.6.8exe which did not complete downloading? Icon remains as broken file
Began download of firefox setup 3.6.8 exe. It stopped, did not complete. Icon remains on desktop as "3.6.8.exe Part, Broken File. Cannot uninstall and clear it. Can delete the icon, then it reappears when computer reboots. How can I remove the partially installed setup file? And get rid of the icon?
Try this to delete the file:
* Open the Task Manager (XP:Ctrl+Alt+Del; Vista/Win7:Shift+Ctrl+ESC) and go to the "Processes" tab.
* In the Process tab, right-click on the Explorer.exe process and select "End Process".
* In Task Manager, use: "File > New Task > Browse" and browse to the folder containing the file and delete the file via the right-click context menu.
* Start a new explorer process via " File > New Task (Run)": explorer.exe

Has anyone experienced problems with Mackeeper? I did not complete downloading this software. Yet, occasionally when on the internet, I will have the MacKeeper multi-colored circle replace my pointer. How do you deal with this?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Don't download MacKeeper. Users complain about this app and it damages OS X. Also, Mac OS X knows how to take care of itself, so you don't need any other cleaning application that may damage OS X. See > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3691 -
2 questions, 1 I tried to download developer preview 2, and it did not complete and now I cant redeem again. Is there a way to fix without calling the 800, 2 if i put all itunes in the cloud do i have to store it on my machine still, can i delete movies etc, on hard drive
If you mean the Developer preview of OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion you need to be posting this to the appropriate developer forum or AppleSeed forum. We can't help you with software that hasn't been released.
Your second question seems to be related to iTunes Match, yes? Try posting it in that forum. -
Purchased albums but the last song did not complete the download.
I purchased 2 albums from the Itunes store and on each album there is a song that did not complete the download, it was stuck at 100% and wouldn't clear, just froze. I shut down Itunes and went back into it and the two songs aren't in my library but when I go to the website to try to redownload them it shows they were purchased but it won't let me restore them. My main concern is both were album only song so it may be difficult to get them without redownloading the entire albums. Is there a way I can get these songs without paying for them again?

Downloaded a number of songs to IPAD - they did not completely download - have bill showing I paid for them, how to I sort?
Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the problem tracks from your iTunes library, close and then reopen iTunes, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the "Report a problem" links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

How do I continue my free upgrade if it did not complete download?
I recieved the email giving me the code to redeem for my free upgrade to Mountain Lion. I started the download, but because of a lost connection it did not complete. There was an icon in Launchpad that said paused upon reboot. When I clicked it the icon disappeared, but nothing resumed downloading.
Now with no way to resume I tried to redo the whole process, but am given a message, "This code can only be used once." when I try to download the update again.
How do I get the update now?That doesn't help at all sig.
There is no topic that covers the free upgrade failing. The upgrade actually NEVER even showed up in the app store as downloading...only in the launchpad. Now that icon is gone and since Apple thinks I used the code for the free upgrade I can't start over even though the upgrade never finished downloading.
Next?
