After I download a 256 kbps song using ITunes Match, how do I get it to play on my computer at the higher bit rate once I turn ITunes Match off again?
After I download a 256 kbps song from the cloud using ITunes Match, how do I get it to play on my computer once I turn ITunes Match off again? I have been using ITunes Match for awhile now to increase the bit rate on songs to 256 kbps. Once I download the songs at the new bit rate, I turn off Match because I want to eliminate duplicates. Usually there is no problem. This time, however, 278 of my songs lost their file association and were unplayable unless I locate the song files within my computer. These are songs purchased from Amazon. In order to play them again in ITunes (Match is now off), I must locate each song file individually (I've tried to do it in bulk but have not succeeded) but now the bit rate has returned to the lower number BEFORE I matched the song. I should have never used Match in the first place. Any ideas, anyone?
I discovered that the NEW 256 bit file does reside on my computer, in the ITunes files (My Music/ITunes/ITunes Media/Music. So I can bring the songs back as 256 kbps, and I have been successful now at locating more than one file at a time, by clicking on the "find other missing files" tab in the popup window. Previously, I'd been going back to my Amazon files, and not only was I unable to bring back a 256 version, but the popup window would not locate similar files. So while I wish ITunes Match would automatically associate the ITunes Match file, at least I can retrive the file association without hours and hours of work.

From your OLD computer...
Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
Full Details Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
An Added Bonus is that you will have a Backup of iTunes.

If you do not have access to the iTunes Library on your Old computer... or its Backup...

I would like to improve the quality of my iTunes library, most of which were ripped at the old 'higher quality' setting and not lossless.
I would consider subscribing to the iTunes Match programme if I would later be able to download my music back on to my PC at the improved higher bit rate stated.
Is there a problem with this?In iPhoto, Select All the Photos you want to move... Then goto > File > Export >
Choose the settings as seen here
Click Export and select your External Drive
Best to create a Folder to put them in... and away you go... -

I have downloaded a CD using itunes but how do i get it to play on sonos?
I have downloaded a CD onto my IMac using ITunes but cannot get it to play on SONOS - any ideas how?
It should be in the Videos app - is it not in there for you to select and play ? If it doesn't show in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

I downloaded the new U2 album, how do I get it to play on my computer?
I tried using the mini-player and the one in the upper left hand corner to play the songs in the U2 album in my "recently added" playlist, but nothing happens. I had an earlier version of iTunes and it would play automatically or after I clicked on the "play" arrow icon. So what gives???
Thanks! That did it. I tried that earlier, but for some reason it didn't work. Now it does. Just my computer letting me know who's boss!

I have a ipod nano, and I purchased a Bose portable sound system to play my ipod on
but it will not shuffle the music, it will play the same song over and over, until I hit the
next song on the remote or do it manually. Does anybody have a solution?????Sounds like the repeat setting has been enabled. See your iPod's User Guide for information on how to turn it off.

I have just downloaded an iBook but it is not opening how do I get a refund
Have you tried deleting it from the iBooks app and redownloading it via the Purchased link in the ibookstore in the iBooks app ? Re-downloading.
If you have the same problem after re-downloading it then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that book and use the 'Report a Problem' link. -
No E-Mail Updates or High Bit-Rate Audio Using WiFi
When I use WiFi and click on the mail icon, my 3GS will not update my e-mail messages. The network activity icon just keeps going and going. Additionally, I cannot get audio streams over 128k on apps such as Wunderradio. Everything works fine on 3G networks and I have enabled the high bit rate option for the apps that have such an option.
The two problems happen on all Wifi networks, so the problem isn't my home network
Anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?Yes. I am able to surf the internet and do everything else except for the two problems I outlined in my original post. The icon switches from 3G to the WiFi "fan". Using the Speedtest.net application I have checked my WiFi connection and it is usually at 4,400 kbps download and 1,000 kbps upload.
In case someone asks: I am using an att.net e-mail account, but have also tried my comcast.net account with the same results.

See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

The backup on my phone failed and I had to restore my phone. Everything came back except the ringtone I had purchased from itunes. How do I get it back?
If you previously transferred the tone to iTunes, you can sync it to the iPhone again.
If you don't see the ringtone in iTunes, you can contact the iTunes Store using Express Lane. -
I purchased an album from iTunes using my desktop computer. All of the songs from the album are on my computer and play perfectly. When I try to sync the songs to my iPhone or iPad, I get an error message that says 3 of the songs can not be downloaded to these devices. Any ideas?
Thanks very much I have contacted them via this. Just hope they respond quickly- rather annoing! Greatly appreciated though
