Can't play downloaded mp3 on Nexus 7

download page allows open, but nothing happens when played.
would also be super helpful if you could download a file and save it in dropbox

What an arogant response aaron. Many of us who use Windows have purchased iPods, and are simply looking for them to actually work.
You clearly like your Mac and think Apple can do no wrong, but that has absolutely nothing to do with the question posed here. Your advice is worthless.
I too have problems with iTunes since upgrading to Vista. During my upgrade I had problems with three previously installed software packages. For two of those, I was able to find helpful information on various web forums that enabled me to resolve the problem. However, for iTunes, every forum I have found that discusses the issue has several folks chiming in with the same kind of snotty attitude as you. Frankly, it's just not helpful.
Believe me, if I wanted advice from you about what computer to buy, or which OS to run, or anything else, I'd have asked those questions directly. The question asked here is how to make iTunes work properly on Windows Vista. If you cannot answer that question then please just shut up and go somewhere else to preach your Apple religion.
Now, is there anyone from Apple available to at least give a helpful update on when a fix for this will be available? ("In a few weeks" is not a helpful answer - particularly when that statement was made MORE THAN a few weeks ago.) I have posted the same question to MS on thier forums too, but haven't heard back.

TS1717 I can play audio files in iTunes but I can't play downloaded tv shows or movies. Everytime I attempt to play them, iTunes stops working and closes.

Is QuickTime installed? If not it might help to install it.
If so is Direct3D Video Acceleration enabled? If so it might help to disable.

I can no longer download MP3 or MP4 why?

I have been downloading MP3 and MP4 for manyn months but can no longer do so. Those I have managed are downloaded to your site and I can not get them out.

Firefox doesn't have a site where you can download anything to let alone music or video files.
Could you give me the URL to this mysterious site please?

How can I play embedded MP3 files in Firefox 19?

I am on a site where I can buy MP3 files. There is a preview of each song. When I click the preview, nothing happens.
If I open IE and do the same thing, I hear the song.
When I return to Firefox, I can then play that same song in Firefox. I can only do this if I open the link in IE first.
I have the Quicktime plugin installed and enabled. In Firefox options, it shows to open MP3 links using the Quicktime plugin

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

Can't play downloaded tracks

hi All
i've just had to buy a new desktop PC, I've got icloud so I haven't lost any tracks from itunes, apart from the tracks that i've downloaded onto my phone since not having a PC, so I haven't been able to back up my purchases. they're showing in itunes, but in a lighter grey colour, and I can't play them, how do I get them back??

Nothing. Those songs are corrupt; delete and redownload them if doing so is free in your country.

JMF can not play some MP3 files on the web

I try to write the application using JMF with MP3 plug-in. The application will search the word in Google dictionary
and play the MP3 sounf online.
The almost word is playing good with the MP3PLAYER, but some is always no sound.
And Itry to add ControllerListener for this, and every word got the realizeComplete and endOfMedia event.
but I just can not here the sound for some word.
for example -
http://www.google.com.tw/dictionary/sounds/actress.mp3 does not work
http://www.google.com.tw/dictionary/sounds/actual.mp3 work
This is one first java application. And I got stuck for couple days. Is anyone can give me some hint ?
Thanks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But my requirement is to play the MP3 immediately when the user search the word.
Covert from MP3 to and WAV take too much time. I never said to do that as a solution, I told you to do that "to test that" the problem is that you're trying to play unsupported MP3s. Please do listen when people are trying to help you out.
Is there any other soulution except JMF ?To play mp3 files? Ummmm, yeah...go Google to your heart's content on ways to play MP3s (but you'll have to find another forum for help with that, because this forum is only for JMF)

Ipod can't play long mp3 files (eg. non-stop music)

I tried to upload 2 files x 90mb+ (70+ mins) mp3 to my ipod shuffle and some smaller mp3s songs. It's a non-stop songs btw.
When I eject and play my ipod, it only play the first 74mins mp3, the second one, and other smaller mp3s cannot be played when i press the 'next' button.
When I open my USB, I can see all those big+small files inside being categorized nicely. When I open my Rhythmbox, I can only see 1 song/album.
Another scenario is when I format my ipod and upload the smaller mp3s followed by the bigger ones, it can only play my smaller ones but will not play the bigger (long) ones.

Try deauthorizing both of the accounts (from the Store menu in iTunes). Then Restore the iPod, and re-authorize both accounts in iTunes. Then make sure you can play songs from both accounts in iTunes, hook up the iPod and sync them over.

Can't play downloaded songs outside of iTunes

Hi. This could well be very novice question, but i could really use some help.
I have purchased an album for my kids through iTunes Store. I have activated the songs, and copied them to my iPod, and all works well. However, my wife tried to copy them to an mp3 player (not an iPod) and they don't work. I have tried looking for the songs on her mp3 Player with Windows Media Player, and they don't appear there either. If i plug the player into the computer, navigate the songs foler in Windows Explorer, then double click a song, Windows Media Player (the Default player on her computer) appears, but claims the song is not a compatible format.
Can downloaded songs be played outside an iPod or iTunes? I note the file extension is m4p, which is not something i have come across before
Windows Vista

No you cannot play them outside iTunes or an iPod. Due to agreements with the content owners, Apple is required to provide a Digital Rights Management mechanism on their music and videos in order to sell them.

Prob with iTunes playing downloaded .mp3 file

Hi,
when I download a single 64Kbps MP3 file (song) from archive.org/audio, it will save to the desktop and look something like this: dtb2005-03-04d1t03_64kb.mp3 Then I try "add to library" in iTunes (5) and the song name appears, but it will be only a couple of KB and play for a split-second - that's all ... Any help, anyone ??
Thanks very much!
peace.
p.s. song will play on Safari page after download, but not after saving.

thanks Mike for the response ... I don't know what you mean by "find the cached file in Safari". I did search for anything of that filename (and Spotlight just found those tiny files) - And I have now updated to iTunes 6.0.1. ... and the exact same thing happens. I just get a 1.2KB tiny file in iTunes that goes "blip" and it's over.
I've noticed that the complete song in the Safari window has progress bar with volume and play at left, then the progress bar, then at the right there is a "down arrow" pull-down menu that has Quicktime options: "About Quicktime Plug-in", "Save as Source..." , "Save as Quicktime Movie...", "Plug-in Settings..." and "Connection Speed..." .
I tried the "Save as Source" - nothing happened. Same with "Save as QT movie".
The "Plug-in Settings..." takes me to some options, many of which are over my head ---- however, there is an option to Register or Buy QT Pro ... could this be what's necessary?
Under "Connection Speed" are also many options (don't understand most of them) but I did change to the slowest speed (since I have dial-up) ... and maybe I'll try to re-download something and see if there's a difference.
I appreciate your help - odd thing is, it used to work with single songs and it has recently worked with whole shows (came in Zip file or .flac) and those worked fine ....... but I only had a couple days' opportunity to use a high-speed connection.
Thanks again !
peace,
Rob

How can i play downloaded movies in windows media player

i have downloaded movies from itunes and would like to play them in windows media player but cant,,can this be done and how do i make it work?

Play them in iTunes... the format is not correct for WMP.

ZEN: I can't play/see mp3 files that I CAN play in Win

A few albums I have uploaded to my ZEN aren't visible in the player itself.
Example: I upload 5 albums of band X. When I browse they are visible but when I start my ZEN and want to play only 3 albums are visible. As for as I know they are normal mp3 files because I can play them with Winamp. What's the problem?

The album photos are just the originals; there are no special copies in the album--it's just a list. Select the photos in the album, then go to File>Export as New Files and send the new copies where you want them.

Can't play downloaded game

I bought the game Volcanic Panic from the Apple store today and I have downloaded it onto my macbook but when I double click the icon it comes up with the message 'there is no default application to open the document'. Have I done something wrong?

What device are you trying to play it on ? Apps from the iTunes app store can only be played on an iPhone, iPod Touch and/or iPad - the game's requirements should be listed on its description page in the store e.g. which devices that it's compatible with and the minimum iOS version that you need on the device

Why can you only download MP3s? Why no wav files? 99 cents for mp3s?

am i spoiled or something? what gives? does itunes offer uncompressed downloads or not?
thanks,
LE

You can't download ANY MP3s from the iTunes store.
They are all 128 kbps AAC.
iTMS does not do WAV files.
Apple has not given a reason.

Can't play download

The download won't play and also won't transfer to ipod. Get error message when trying to transfer to ipod: it just says can't be copied to ipod because it can't be played on ipod. But also won't respond when I click on it to play on the computer. I have downloaded many songs and this has never happened. If I try to download again they will charge me.

It may be a corrupted or incomplete download. Contact the iTunes Store customer support department through the form at the bottom of their web page and explain the problem to them.
