Are you not allowed to add songs to your iTunes library that you didn't get from the iTunes store?

A friend of mine gave me a flashdrive with some music he wanted me to have but when I put them in my library it says they cant be played or used because the "original could not be found"
What the heck?

You are not allowed to give music away unless you are the copyright holder. Assuming the friend had the right to give you the media what has probably happended is that you have imported links to the media on the flashdrive to your library, rather than making local copies of the files on your computer's drive. Disconnect the drive and those links become invalid. Check your preferences for "Keep" and "Copy" under Edit > Preferences > Advanced.

    My Iphone 4S will not allow me to answer incoming calls on any bluetooth headset without selecting it from the audio source menu.The connection works because once I do select the device...I can hear and speak. Any ideas?

  • How do I get a picture to look like the audi example picture (2nd one) when you download motion 5 from the app store?

    Im looking to remake this picture that is an example when you download motion 5 from the app store. Apple gives you 5 example pictures to kind of show off what the program can do and I want to replicate the 2nd one. I like how the picture is divided into multiple different sized boxes and I dont know the presets needed to make another picture like that. Any tips are welcome. Thanks.

    Thanks for the help folks, sorry I've been away.
    I'd love help with the problem of why I only one track seems to accept clips to play. When I drag them to other tracks or create a track by dragging the clips are grayed out and won't play, but if I drag them to the one track where they're blue they play.

  • I am not able to download free apps.  A message comes up telling me that I havent purchased anything from the app store.  What do I do?

    i am not able to download free apps.  A message comes up telling me that I havent purchased anything from the app store.  What do I do?

    When you set up your Apple ID, did you enter a credit card?  That's usually all you need to do.  Even for free apps.  Also, the credit card need to be issued in the country of the App Store you use.  Now, there is a way to set up an Apple ID without a credit card, but it's (IMHO) a good idea to have one on the account incase you ever do want to purchase a paid for app, or want to make an in-app purchase.  I've had a CC tied to my Apple ID for several years now.  Not once have I had a charge that wasn't mine or any billing issues whatsoever.

  • How do you clear completed updates from the app store after downloading is complete?

    How do you clear completed updates from the app store after downloading is complete on iOS 7.0.2?

    You don't. It's how things are done now, likely to accommodate those that have auto update turned on.  IT's been said that the updates will just drop off after a period of time but  time will tell on that.

  • When you order a iPod from the online store what packaging does it come in?

    When you order a iPod from the online store what packaging does it come in? Does the iPod box come in a box? A bag of some sort? Is there any extra protection? Because I've seen on TV the video of those sorting plants, and they treat those packages like there trying to break whats inside.

    Hi! I just received my new 80gb iPod today and it came in an iPod box, and it's very secure in the package. I had no problems with the way Apple packages the iPods.
    I'd hope if your ipod came broken Apple would either exchange or refund the item.
    Cheers.

  • How do you clear updated apps from the App Store

    How can you clear updated apps from the list in App Store?

    What do you mean by "clear"?
    Have a look here: iOS 8: App Store Updates Do Not Clear
    If it is the badge count that does not fit, it might be that iTunes is the cause (12.0.1.26).

  • How do I add songs to my iTunes Store wish list on my iPod?

    How do I add a song to my iTunes wish list on my iPod? I keep looking up songs/albums I want to buy on my iPod Touch, but I can never add them to a wish list because I can't find the right button to push. I know the button is next to the price on the OS X iTunes Store, but it's not there on the iOS iTunes Store. Help!!!

    No idea what you are asking.

  • ITunes U not allowing me to access my regular iTunes Store

    I want to go to the regular iTunes Store, where I can purchase my songs etc... But when I click on itunes I'm only seeing iTunes U... It's really annoying because I'm not interested in using iTunes U and I don't know how to get the regular iTunes Store back.

  • HT204088 How do you find purchase history from the app store via your Iphone?

    I believe my son has inadvertently made in app purchases which are adding up to a huge sum on my bank statement. I can not get in touch with the Itunes help folks to confirm what all these purchases are and can't find them via Itunes or the App store on my phone.
    Any advice?

    Go to itunes --> on top nav, select app store --> Look for "purchased" on the right rail menu under APP STORE QUICK LINKS. That will take you to the "Purchased" page. You can search by "All" or by "Not on This Computer" (I looked something up on my comptuer... so I can also search what applications were downloaded from iPhone, another computer or iPad). The dates and prices of the apps are NOT listed there. Hope that helps.

  • I have a Macbook 13-inch, Late 2009 I'm running 10.8 Mountain Lion. iWork '09 will not work, how can I fix that without purchasing new programs from the App Store?

    Help! 911! S.O.S.

    Update iWork to Mountain Lion compatible versions.
    Software Update is now operated therough the Mac App Store. I'm guessing that you have a version not purchased through the Mac App Store, but on DVD?
    If so, take a look at this thread. It's important to have the apps in the original folder. More details in the thread.

  • If you purchase an app from the app store is there a refund policy

    Hey I want to purchase an app but don't know if it will really work but wanted to know if there was refund policy or term on an app.  And if so how do you return it and get a credit?

    Per Apple policy, all App store sales are final. Read the descriptions and the reviews carefully before purchase.

  • HT3989 how do you activate 64 bit mode in logic pro 9 if you purchased it directly from the apps store?

    hey team
    the instructions for the regular activation of 64 bit mode don't seem to work as there is no logic folder in the applicetions, only the icon to launch the program.
    thanks

    Hi
    Select the Logic Pro application within the Applications folder, and use Command I (or File:Get Info).
    Un-chcek the 'Open in 32 bit mode' button

  • How do you install an App from the Mac Store on a second HD

    I'm getting a smaller SSD drive for my computer. I don't want all my Mac App Store programs installed on my main drive but rather some on the second drive for obvious reasons. I don't see an option or even a preference panel to do this. Am I missing something simple. How is this done?
    Thanks
    Bryan

    Copy the app to the other drive.
