Anything bought in the store won't play

Everything I have bought in the store won't play on my iPod. This includes 13 movies, 1 music video and 2 songs. Everything worked until I took it to a friends house and plugged it in there.
Any ideas why the purchases won't play?

When you went to your friend's house...Did you change the library that the iPod was originally set to?

    What do you mean by "won't play"?
    Try deleting the song and downloading it again from the iTunes Store.

    and, what is even more strange...
    I actually bought 2 Billy Joel songs NY State of Mind from Essential Billly Joel and Italian Restaurant from Greatist Hits vol 1.  Neither song would play. 
    I went back the Apple store and tried to re-download NYSOM.  It let me do it for free.  Before I checked I tried to re-dowload IR but inadvertantly selected same song but from The Stranger.  I had to pay for this one.  The re-downloaded NYSOM still didn't work but IR I bought from Stranger worked.  So, I bought NYSOM from Greatest Hits vol 1. Didn't work!!!  Tried again and bought from another album, Turnstiles, and that one worked.  So, I bought 5 songs, only 2 of which will work. 
    So, now I ask - is there any way to get my money back?

  • I have iTunes Match, but some of the music I loaded from CDs and I can see in the iTunes store won't play. It recognizes the album but is playing literally the only 3 songs I don't want to listen to.

    How do I get to play all of my music that should be stored either on the computer or in the cloud?

    Hi,
    Initially your music should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Once match completes its scan, your music will have been matched or uploaded. I suggest that you add iCloud status column to song view. This will tell you what has been matched, uploaded, purchased, inelligible, duplicate or waiting. What is the status of your tracks that are not playing.
    If space is not an issue, I suggest that you keep the music on the internal hard drive otherwise you can delete the tracks and play from cloud. In both instances, you should maintain a back up of all your music on a separate hard drive.

  • I have the old skool Monster car cable--i tune in the channel on the Monster cable and my old iPod plays. I bought the adapter for Lightning to accommodate the new iPod i just bought. But it won't play. ***?

    It could just be a compatibility issue.  Have you tried resetting the Nano with everything connected to see if that makes a difference?
    To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • A track that I bought from the store only play partially as if it didn't completely download. This was some time a go and there is no record in my iTunes account of its purchase. Any thoughts to a solution?

    Hello Kim,
    You may want to consider deleting and redownloading the affected songs from the iTunes Store.

    I just downloaded iTunes on my new PC and all the music that I have purchased through ITunes that was backed up on the cloud won't play. It is telling me I must authorize this computer before it can play pre purchased music. how do I authorize my computer to play this music?
    Thank you for any assistance.

    Tigon's already got you covered here. But I'll chime in with some English localisation advice.
    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

  • My songs are duplicated i itunes but if i remove one entry, the other won't play anymore...what do i do?

    After my friend transferred my songs to my new laptop, i have installed itunes. First i had 2 or 3 entries of the same song, because i had a music files (mostly
    mp3), and the 2 entries were from Itunes music files. One entry played, the other wouldn't (exclamation point). As i have  a couple thousand songs, i decided to consolidate into Itunes Media, thinking i could then uninstall Itunes, Reinstall it and delete my Itunes music folder.
    But it probably was the wrong way to go. Now I have an Itunes media folder and an Itunes music folder. If i delete one of them from my computer, itunes says it cannot find the track. But the problem is now it takes twice as much space on my computer and last but not least, almost every song is duplicated in Itunes.
    If I delete one of the two entries, the song won't play (exclamation point again). it's like each file of the song exist in his own file, but cannot play if the other version of the song isn't there.
    So i'm stuck with a duplicated list of songs in Itunes and 30 Go of songs on my laptop...<
    any help would be greatly appreciated!
    thanks!

    I would guess that if they both point to the same file and you delete one of them, you have deleted the file. Therefore it is no longer there to be played.
    I'm not really sure how you got into this situation.  I'm also not sure if you have multiple copies of the same songs on your drive or just multiple entries in the library. It sounds like you  haven't gotten very far, that you have not yet set up playlists that you would be heartbroken to lose. If you have room on your drive, I might suggest closing iTunes, renaming both of those media folders, then restarting iTunes and creating a brand new library.  I would set iTunes to copy media files to the library when it imports them so that it all gets consolidated. I would add the music folder (which is probably a sub-folder of those other folders) from one of your two existing folders and see what happens. Then I'd add the other.
    As a normal precaution, I highly recommend backing up your two music folders before starting this. 
    When all is done and you are happy, you should be able to delete the older folders.  This is the step that begs for a backup. First, though, I'd change the names of the two older folders again and see if iTunes plays your music. If not, it didn't make a copy and it's still looking in the old folders.  You might want keep them around for a while and only delete them when you need drive space.  I am loathe to delete anything unnecessarily, just in case there is a problem.
    I'm not a Windows user so I can't help with the details on how to do this on a PC.

  • HT3951 I downloaded an album and 2 of the songs won't play

    I downloaded an album and 2 of the songs won't play and it's showing that the songs are fully downloaded. I have the latest version of itunes. If anyone knows what the problem is and how to fix it, please help!

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state 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 those tracks and use the 'Report a Problem' link (iTunes support should reply within, I think, 24 to 48 hours).
    Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

  • Itunes won't play, store won't play, no audio

    itunes won't play, itunes store won't play, no audio.

    Make sure the volume slider in iTunes isn't all the way to the left.
    If that doesn't work, check out this Apple article -> iTunes and QuickTime for Windows: Audio does not play or plays incorrectly

    If just some of the tracks on the album are doing that, that suggests those tracks are damaged.
    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    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 items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • I clicked "locate" when prompted, now the track won't play at all even from the hard drive though it's listed in iTunes. Can anyone help?

    I was prompted to "locate" a track, clicked yes, and now the track won't play no matter where I play it from. I've put it on the desktop, added it to library, tried everything - is there an equivalent "reconnect media" function like in Final Cut Pro? I'd be grateful for any help thanks

    Will it play in Quicktime player?  If not it may be corrupt and will have to be reloaded from the original source.
