Can't find a song that I know is on iTunes

When I was in Europe, there was a song I heard called "Nine Million Bicycles in Beijing." I know it's on iTunes because I did a search on it when I was in Europe using my laptop. The only reason I didn't buy it was because everything was in Euros. And .99Euros is much more expensive than $.99 in the states. When I came back to the states and did a search for the song, it can't find it. Any ideas why?

SirSly, welcome to discussions! I've done several searches in the European stores including UK, France, & Germany, & can't find this song in any of these 3 stores. The most likely reason that it isn't available in the US store is that the copyright holders of the song have not negotiated a deal with the US store for distribution.
This scenario is usually why songs may be available in one country but not in others. Copyright holders can easily vary from country to country & deals have to be negotiated in every country for download distribution of music. Hope this helps!

  • Where do I find my songs that have been exported to iTunes?

    I am trying to get songs ive created on garage band onto iMovie and iTunes and I can't find them once they are exported to iTunes. I don't get any errors or anything just can't find them anywhere.  Pleeeeaseeehelp!!

    maybe I'm not looking in the right places
    How do you export from GarargeBand to iTunes? You are not saying what your GarageBand Version is? GarageBand for Mac or iPad?
    If you are exporting from GarageBand for Mac, you should see the following window on export:
    If you want to find the song in the iTunes Library, you can use any of the tags above to find your song: either look at the album name you have chosen, search the artist, look at the playlist you named; or simply enter the name of your project into the "Search Music" search field.

  • 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.

  • Can you have a song that another person bought on iTunes

    My sister has bought some songs on iTunes that I want to have.  Is there a way she can share it to me on the same computer without me having to pay for it?

    If the music folder is moved (fully moved: as in, change the iTunes preferences too, under ALL accounts on the computer) to the Shared Music folder, then anyone on the system can access it.

  • What can you do if you can't find the song you are looking for on Itunes?

    I am looking for a specific song from a specific singer for my wedding this summer. It isn't on ITunes. What can I do about this problem?

    Look somewhere else for it.
    What do you do if you look for anything at one store and don't find it?

  • I'm finding that songs that I have imported to Itunes are suddenly showing with "Exclamation" marks and Itunes tells me that the original file cannot be found.  When I tell it to locate the file, it can't do it.

       I'm finding that songs that I have imported into Itunes and played before are suddenly showing an"Exclamation" mark and Itunes tells me that the original file cannot be found.  When I tell it to locate the file, it can't do it.  I went to the Itunes help for locating files, but that still won't do it.  It seems that somehow they are getting deleted, but not by me that I know of.
    Can anyone help me?

    Maybe you rename it. Somehow the path to the songs have changed if not deleted.
    In Finder go to "Macintosh/Users/username/music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music" that's where all your songs located so if those songs are not there you get an exclamation mark. You can delete those entries in iTunes and re-import again.

    I know this email is confusing and really hard to understand...perhaps now you will know how i've been feeling--lost and confused with all the mis-information, with a hit and miss phone, and out of time with all the 1 1/2 hr to 2 hrs EACH wasted on this issue.
    On top of all this, I can't even find out how to file a complaint with anyone higher up than Customer Service.
    I hate to tell you this, but you didn't write an email. You wrote a discussion post on the Verizon Wireless Community forum which is a public peer to peer forum. Unfortunately since you didn't mark your post as a question, the VZW reps that roam this community won't ever see your post. Before you re-post it, don't. Duplicate posts get removed from the community.
    I see there were several missteps both by the reps and yourself in your post. First you should have insisted on returning the phone within the 14 day return policy period. Second which Samsung Galaxy mini model did you purchase? The S3 mini or the S4 mini? Did you do any research prior to deciding on this device. The reps at that time deflected the easiest course of action, by trying to get you to replace the phone under insurance instead of returning the phone. The Early Edge payment option requires the current phone on the line using the early Edge must be returned to Verizon Wireless. Did you once considered going to a third party site like Swappa to purchase a gently used device for your daughter?

  • How can I downgrade iOS 7.0.4 down to iOS 6.1.3? I know there is no Apple licensed way to do so, but can someone find a software that helps downgrade?????

  • TS3159 Some songs that I've bought on iTunes won't play on my iPhone 3GS even though they used to and they will still play on iTunes.  Anyone know what I can do to get these songs to play on my iPhone again?

    Some songs that I've bought on iTunes won't play on my iPhone 3GS even though they used to and they will still play on iTunes.  Anyone know what I can do to get these songs to play on my iPhone again?  Please help!

    No, I haven't figured it out.  And no one from Apple has contacted me to help.  Very frustrating.  Sure makes me want to not buy music on iTunes and just buy CD's.
    Do you have a 3GS too?  Maybe it's something with that phone??

  • HT1848 HOW CAN I FIND MY SONGS ON MY COMPUTER AND TRANSFER THE SONGS THAT I DIDNT BUY FROM ITUNES TO MY SAMSUNG S4???????

    How?  I don't understand why I am having so much difficulty not only trying to find the songs that I purchased through itunes but the music I already had that is only stored on my iphone at the moment.  I had to re-install my computer so I lost everything that was on it.  WHY???  Is this so difficult to figure out???  My iphone plays the songs, I want them on my samsung s4.  How do i do it?
    Thanks in advance.

    If you put them on your computer, then they will be in your "Library" in itunes.
    You sync them to your iphone as you did before.
    Open itunes, plug in iphone, select what you want to sync and sync.

  • Updated iPod software, now it can't find 100 songs of my music.

    It cannot fine the origional file for 100 songs? If I go into my music folder, itunes music, I can find all the songs. What happened!!??

    This is a major Itunes Flaw!
    This is not an issue that one of the volunteer experts can answer or solve. There needs to be a software change.
    Why they have not found a fix for it I don't know.
    If google can index and locate billions of pages, why in the world can't Apple make an itunes program that can locate songs after you have undocked.
    With me my problem is that I have my songs on an external drive. When I plug it back in it shows that it is the same drive, but itunes can't find the songs. Even when I repoint it in the right external directory, I still have to go into the specific root directory for that song. If you have 4000 songs that could take forever.
    What is the Deal Apple!!!!

  • I can't find purchased songs in Music Library or in Recently Added.  The purchases are on my account.

    I can't find purchased songs in Music Library or in Recently Added.  I have searched my library but they are not there.  Itunes says that all recently purchased items have been downloaded.  Where are the songs?

    I don't know how, but this problem resolved itself for me.  If you don't see the downloads go to Documents, My Music, iTunes and then scrounge around to see if you can find a file with new downloads in there.  Then you can drag them to the iTunes icon. 
    Then try shutting down iTunes, and your computer and restart to see if this issue fixes itself.  I know, only a Mackie would think that a computer could fix itself. 

  • Defrag my hard drive on my iMac now I tunes can't find my songs in the iTunes library

    I defraged my hard drive now iTunes can't find the songs in the library. Not connected to the cloud yet. Any suggestions on getting iTunes to find the master copy of the songs so I can play them on my iMacs. I have the same songs on my I pad but I don't know of any way of transferring my music from my iPod to the iTunes library on my iMac. Any thoughts.

    Same problem here. In my case I suspect due to having been cleaning out duplicate music files when hard disk was filling at an alarming rate (as I watched.) No longer doing that but my cleanup must have moved essential elements and files.
    Anyone know how to get my purchased stuff, showing as purchased but with exclamation mark, back into itunes again?
