Can't play existing songs that I could play before

HELP - Have been running i-tunes for over 2 years and now I can't play any song in my library that I imported from a CD. They all have .mp4a after them and are shown as MPEG-4 files. I think this may have happened when I downloaded the latest media player. Any ideas please??

It depends on the format the video's in. Ipads only support mp4 videos (and few other very uncommon video formats), unless youre using an app that lets u play other formats. So if the video was in mp4, ull be able to play it, but if it isnt, u cant. sites like youku has got a variety of uploaders that upload in different formats, so read the formatting before playing, just to make sure.

TS1389 hey there ,how can i redownload some songs that i"ve purchased before ? seems i 've tried but always it saids your computer is not autorized ,need assistances please

hello there ,i need some assitance with an issue that i had ,regarding about some song i've purchased before i 've tried to do the redownload which is for free but for some reasons al the time it says your computer is not autorised ,needs to autorised otherwise it can't do it ,need some advise thanks.

Nope, it was a Verizon Wireless Store. I went in there in the first place because I trusted the Company for their professionalism, but I've been let down badly. I posted my story on here because I'm hoping to be able to get the attention of someone from Customer Service. It seems like the only way you can actually speak with a live person who knows what they are doing, is when you stop paying your bill on time. After you pay your bill, they transfer you to a poorly trained "rep" that has no authority to handle anything important. I'm actually a pretty patient person, but when it takes someone over 45 min mostly just to keep me on hold, and then tell me they can't help me, I'm not really impressed with their idea of customer service.

I can not download 19 songs that I recently downloaded it is telling me that my device is not authorized. I have had this nano for many years and never had a problem downloading songs until now. I have even went as far as to restore the nano and it still

I can not download 19 songs that I recently purchased on my laptop. I am getting the message that my Nano is not an authorized device. Even though I have had it for years and it has many songs downloaded from my laptop. I even decided to do the restore and it is still saying that the 19 songs can not be downloaded to my nano. I did recently upgrade my window's 7 version. Maybe this has created the problem.

Yes, the upgrade is the likely cause.
First you should try to deauthorize your computer/iTunes library before attempting to authorize it again. To do this, click the Store drop down menu in iTunes and choose Deauthorize this Computer. Then enter in your iTunes account credentials.
When it has finished, choose Store -> Authorize this Computer and again enter in your Apple ID account credentials.
Finally, try resyncing your Nano to see if that makes a difference.

Yes.
You should have copied everything from the old computer to the new one.
Type "move itunes library" into the google search bar

After they send it to you, it will appear in your Skype conversation. Save the file to your desktop. Then drag it to your Automatically Add to iTunes folder, which can be found in your iTunes Media folder.

Can't download a song that was pre ordered !!

Check your Purchased Folder (left hand side of iTunes, under the Store Category). If you see the song in the folder than you have downloaded it successfully, no matter what the error message was. If the song isn't there you need to check your Purchase History. You can do this by clicking on iTunes Store (left hand side of iTunes, under the Store Category) Then on the right hand side of the store page is a category called Quick Links. Click on Account and sign in and check to see if the song is in your Purchase History. If it IS there and NOT in your Purchased folder (left hand side of iTunes) than you should e-mail the iTunes store and let them know your situation and what the error message said while downloading. You can e-mail the store by using the e-mail form on this page http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/buy/
Don't forget to make sure your computer meets System Requirements for having iTunes on your computer ~.~

Hi jpere041,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can delete individual songs, artists, albums, playlists, compilations and composers from your iPhone. To delete an item, swipe across it, then tap Delete.
This information is on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide
manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.

I recently downloaded Ios 7 and all the songs that i have purchased before but deleted off my itunes because i didn't want them showed up. I don't know how to delete them off my ipod and i really don't want them there

I recently downloaded Ios 7 and all the songs that i have purchased before, but deleted off my itunes because i didn't want them, showed up. I don't know how to delete them off my ipod and i really don't want them there. Is there a way to get them off? The songs dont show up in my itunes on my computer, just on my ipod with a download button next to them. I don't want them there anymore because i don't like that kind of music anymore and i don't know how to get them to go away.

There is a similar setting for Videos on that Settings screen, so if you leave that 'on' you may have similar happening in the Videos app
