Cannot play my purchased music

I have a power mac G4 and recently upgraded to I Tunes 7.2.3 and ever since I cannot play my purchased music (keeps unexpectally quitting) but my album downloads play fine. I am running osx10.3.9. Has anyone experienced this and might you have a solution?

many thanks.
I am in my iTunes application and when I press the link to connect to the iTunes Store, it starts churning, and churning, but never connects. It has churned for hours and when I finally click the "X" to close it, I get error code 11222.
I'd try the following document:

(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

Cannot Play Newly Purchased Music

I bought an album from itunes for the first time since downloading the new version. Aside from the fact that itunes didn't even give me the full album (who do I contact about that, by the way!), I've been unable to play the songs in my ipod shuffle.
It's weird because: 1) the songs appear in the list of songs on my shuffle when it's plugged in and on the source list; 2) when I actually have my shuffle on and am listening to it, the songs aren't there; and 3) I copied the songs and sent them to my friend and he was able to play them on his ipod nano.
So i'm guessing it's a shuffle problem, but so far no one on those forums has been able to help me. Maybe someone here can, or at least tell me who to talk to about getting reimbursed for having to purchase the song that itunes didn't give me when i first bought the album. (i know it's only 99 cents, but it's the principle of the thing)
Thanks.

Hmm, sounds a bit confusing. Let's see if a few things can be brought out of the way:
It sounds like your album just didn't finish downloading. Go to Advanced -> Check for Purchases..., enter your info as prompted, and see if anything new downloads. If not, see this page for contacting iTunes support and inquiring about your missing download.
Is your computer authorized to play iTunes purchases? Did you authorize it before syncing up your iPod shuffle?
Lastly, how could your iTunes purchases work on your friend's iPod nano if the files are tied to your account? I'm assuming the two of you are sharing an iTunes account across multiple (authorized) computers.
Anyway, I hope I helped you somewhat with the "failing to download the whole album" problem. Good luck.

I cannot find a way to authorize my new computer to play previously purchased music from itunes. The directions say to click on STORE menu, but I don't see that option.

Go to the Store menu item on the menu bar, and choose Authorize This Computer, as shown below.
If by any chance you don't see the menu bar (File, Edit, View, Controls, Store, Help), first enable it by using CTRL+B.

You can transfer all the iTunes purchased music from the iPod Touch to your new computer.
From iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer:
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod has your purchased content from the iTunes Store, you can transfer the content to a computer that is authorized for your Apple ID.
Note: This option only works for content you purchased from the iTunes Store (as opposed to content from other sources, such as CDs you may have imported). For content you did not purchase from the iTunes Store, synchronization occurs in one direction only. This means your content can be copied from a computer to your iOS device, but cannot be copied from your device to a computer.
Open iTunes.
From the Store menu, choose Authorize Computer.
In the dialog that appears, the Apple ID button is selected by default. If you have an AOL account, select AOL.
Enter your Apple ID or AOL account and password. Then, click the Authorize button.
Connect your device your computer. If it is synced with another iTunes library, the following may appear:
If this alert appears, click Transfer Purchases.
If you were not offered the option to transfer purchases:
After connecting your device to the computer, its icon appears in iTunes. Click the icon.
From the File menu, choose "Transfer Purchases from 'Your device name.'"

TS3297 iTunes error coe 8012: cannot download newly-purchased music from iTunes store.

iTunes error coe 8012: cannot download newly-purchased music from iTunes store. Anyboy else get this looping error?

Hey everybody,
I also was experiencing the unknown error -42018 when attempting to download purchased music. Additionally, I was stuck in an endless authorization loop when attempting to play previously purchaed music. All this started when I installed the latest iTunes software 7.0.2.
I run windows XP Pro, and unlike the majority of users I actually set it up correctly with a dedicated administrator account, and regular user accounts instead of just running as admin all the time. For me, that was the cause of the problem.
The new version of iTunes software required FULL CONTROL privilages on the iTunes and iPod install directories for all user accounts that were using the program. (Previous versions worked fine, so this is a new thing.) Once I provided those permissions, iTunes worked correctly. Follow this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/304040 for information on how to provide FULL CONTROL to every user account.
I hope you all find this helpful in solving your problem.
Good Luck,
Bill

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 I must authorize this computer before it play pre purchased music. how do I authorize my computer.

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:

How do I authorize a new computer to play my purchased music on iTunes

I recently got a new computer. My previous computer has iTunes but is no longer able to access the internet. I was able to get my music library from my original computer to the new one. When I try to play music, I get a window asking me to authorize the new computer. I fill in the account and password and press the authorize button. It accepts the password then asks me to download iTunes 6.0. I downloaded and installed iTunes 6 but every time I try to play any of my music, it sends me to the music library to download iTunes 6 again.

There were two icons. One was version 4 the other was version 6. When I used Version 6, it worked.

Can't authorize computer to play already purchased music in thailand

Help!
I recently came to thailand with a fresh panther install on my pismo notebook. I guess since it's a fresh hard drive, iTunes won't let me play my purchased music without authorization. Here's the catch, when I try to authorize, the iTunes store reports that it's 'busy' and to check my network. I am on an active network and can even log in to my account sort of - it won't quite let me in but knows that my Led Zeppelin pre-order is ready for download to which I click 'not now' and essentially I am nowhere. No apple support email here I guess or I can't find it. Any clues? I am not at 5 authorizations yet.

I think you just need to figure out the tricks to getting the album you want up in iTunes. It is very easy actually.
First, if you turn on View Browser (you can't be in the cover flow view to see the browser) you get three windows at the top of your library: Genre, Artist, Album. When you pick anything from any of those windows, it immediately narrows down the library view to things that meet that choice (e.g. if you pick U2 then the library will only show tracks with Artist = U2.
In addition, those three boxes will narrow down to only show what fits with whatever you type in the search field. Meaning, normally if you have thousands of songs and hundreds of artists, scrolling through the little artist box to find that one artist or the album box to find that one album is kind of tedious. But say you want to listen to The Clash's "London Calling". In the search box you can just type in Clash or London (or both) and the three Browser boxes (and your library view) will quickly narrow down to only tracks where Clash and London appear. Likely the Album window will now only show a few choices. Click the "London Calling" one and your library now only shows that album. Now you can play just that album. Of course it sounds like more when you type it all out, but to open iTunes, type "Clash London" then click on the London Calling album takes all of about three seconds, likely quicker than it is to dig through folders in your hard drive.
Sorry, but I don't have any answers for your Windows association problem with trying to load more than 10 tracks, but I think you may find the above method to be much easier to navigate.

Cannot see my purchased music in the left hand pane.

I have moved my itunes library to a new computer but cannot see my purchased music in the left hand pane. Can I still download it.

If you want to do file tranfers, you want to use File Sharing in iTunes is that correct? If that is correct, you have to have apps that support file sharing or they will not appear in the file sharing window.
You have to scroll down a bit in order to see the file sharing window in iTunes.
However, your post is a little bit confusing. I'm assuming that you are talking about iTunes. Some detailed information would certainly help.

I have formatted my computer and re installed itunes. However, I cannot see my purchased musics/movies/books on my library anymore. I can see my purchased registration on my account, but I don't know how can I do to download it back to my pc. Any ideas?

Go to the iTunes Store and select "Purchased" from the Quick Links side bar on the right. Go through all the tabs to download again for free
