Clear out "Available Downloads" from iTunes?

I downloaded the iPhone 2.0 for my ipod touch back when i purchased it for 9.95 (or whatever it was at the time).
However, iTunes store still thinks i haven't downloaded it. So anytime i now do an "update all apps" it attempts to download the iPhone 2.0 update 12 times.
Is there anywhere i can clear this out?

Network Connection Timeout when "Chkng for available downloads" from iTunes

I have been struggling with this problem for weeks and have spent a significant amount of time trying to diagnose and fix without success.
When I select “Check for Available Downloads” through iTunes, I receive a “Network Connection Timeout” message and iTunes fails to download any information. It does ask me to validate my access with a password before it fails.
This problem initially occurred after I purchased the iTunes Plus updates for my music library. It backlogged about 70 updates that are now sitting in the queue to be downloaded to my local iTunes library. However, since I made that purchase, I have not successfully been able to do any downloads from the iTunes store. I suspect that the volume of items in the queue is related to the problem (as a trigger or the cause).
I have also tried to buy a single song. Although the purchase is successful (it charges my card and adds the song to the download queue), it doesn’t successfully download the song. I cannot, at this time, even get to a point where I can display a list of the queue for download. It always fails when trying to access that available download queue.
Podcast downloads still work fine through iTunes. I have never had problems with the store before and have done very large downloads (e.g. audio books) in the past. I have had no changes to my configuration leading up to this problem.
I am running a relatively new computer with a clean install of Windows 7, plenty of memory and very fast processors. I’ve got high capacity DSL. The connection is wired from the router into my network card (not wireless).
I have tried a number of things as noted below and the problem still occurs:
1. Confirmed access to internet, and ability to download from other web sites without timeout
2. Confirmed my ability to access the iTunes store, change my personal information, browse songs
3. Confirmed ability to download podcasts
4. Deactivated my windows firewall, antivirus and Net nanny content protection.
5. Deactivated the router firewall, and placed my PC in the DMZ of the router (which means that it should be wide open to the external network).
6. Swapped out the DSL modem for a different DSL modem and completely removed the router from the configuration.
7. Checked my drivers on the network card and made sure they are up to date.
8. Ran Windows 7 network diagnostics – no problems detected
9. Ran iTunes network diagnostics – no problems detected
10. Uninstalled all software related to iTunes and reinstalled most current versions (iTunes, Quicktime, Bonjur, etc.)
Thoughts?

have the same problem...still waiting

How to delete an "Available Download" from iTunes Store account?

Greetings,
I’ve downloaded various “free TV episodes” to my MacBook Pro from the iTunes Store, watched them, and deleted them.
The problem is that the next time I start up iTunes on my MacBook, iTunes automatically goes to the iTunes Store and begins “Checking for Available Downloads,” where the already deleted (from my MacBook) “free TV episodes” are *still* listed on my iTunes Store account as “available for download”. Thus, the downloads start to download again (and again, and again, and again . . .) automatically - after they've been deleted (repeatedly).
I’ve logged into my iTunes Store account to see if I might delete these listed items directly, but I see no place where I might access a list of “Available Downloads” so that I might update it. Can anyone help with how I might *permanently delete* the already downloaded and already deleted items?
Thanks Much!

Reboot the iPad and then see if you can delete the stalled download. Try swiping across the progress bar as well after you reboot.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Why do I have to log multiple times when checking available downloads from iTunes?

It's been going on for some time now.
I'm finally getting around to asking.
Every SINGLE time I download an app update, or purchase something, iTunes makes me log in with my password 2, 3, sometimes 4 times in a row.
All the while, what I purchased/updated is downloading to my Mac.
I am not entering my password incorrectly.
I am already logged in to the iTunes store.
What can I do to make it stop?
It's annoying!
Thanks.

Make sure you are signed into the iTunes Store with the correct username and password, see this for more info -> iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account

I want to transfer movies I have downloaded from iTunes from my iPhone 5 to a flash drive to be able to use when I have no wifi on my iPad,when power is out etc ?

If you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the left-hand sidebar on it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC - when connected (and if your computer's iTunes is up-to-date) your iPad should then appear on that sidebar under a 'Devices' heading :
If you select the iPad on that sidebar you can then use the Movies tab on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and sync that film to your iPad's Videos app.
Has your iPad been synced to the computer before ? If not then you might find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

My movie I recently downloaded from itunes "Act of Valor" only works for a out 5 chapters, then it stops working. Other movies work on my iPod touch. How do I fix this issue? If I can't, can I get my money back?

My movie I recently downloaded from itunes "Act of Valor" only works for a out 5 chapters, then it stops working. Other movies work on my iPod touch. How do I fix this issue? If I can't, can I get my money back?

- Go here and see if you can redownload the movies. If you can then delete the movie and redownlod it.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- Otherwise, contact iTunes and explain your problem. They should allow a free redownload.

Stuck preparing to download from itunes

My iPhone 4S is stuck "preparing to download" from iTunes. I cannot delete the downloads. I cannot pause the downloads, I cannot restart the downloads. I have tried a cold reboot, I have tried to log out of my iTunes account, my iCloud account and my iTunes match account. Nothing stops the phone from continuing to try to download songs from iTunes.
Any suggestions on how to stop it?

i've had 11 songs stuck "preparing to download" on my iPad 2 for a couple of days.
unlike others (in other threads) who removed and re-added songs from their (computer iTunes) libraries, forcing iTunes to redownload the songs on their iOS devices, the 11 songs in question on my iPad were songs that are NOT available in iTunes' own database. they were either (a) my original material or (b) obscure songs i imported from CDs or LPs. that fact seemed to make the issue more difficult for me to correct.
finally, after a few hours of searching and failed attempts, i managed to solve it:
- in the iTunes app, i went to the Purchased tab.
- i selected "Not on this iPad."
- i went to "Recent Purchases" (though i suspect the particular category probably isn't critical).
- then i downloaded a couple of items that were NOT present on my device.
while the 2nd item was downloading, i suddenly got a pop-up that said "11 items could not be downloaded at this time. Please try again later" (or something like that). and at the same time, that annoying red badge with the numeral 11 disappeared from the Downloads icon.
in short, forcing itunes match to download other material cleared the previously stuck downloads.
i hope this works for someone else.

Repeating problems (1) Many Missing Files; and (2) Downloading From iTunes

I am having multiple issues with the iTunes store currently. I have spoken with an Apple Expert on August 14, 2010 (case number available if needed). Although he was very good at helping me to the best of his ability, he referred me to iTunes Store Customer Service, which I previously was in contact with.
I have 2 types of repeating problems (1) Many Missing Files; and (2) Downloading From iTunes Store.
_Problem One - (1) Downloading From iTunes Store_
I have 1610 missing files from my iTunes folders. I created a list of missing items by following these steps:
+If for any reason you find yourself with random missing tracks, (or are trying to recover from a dying hard drive like me), there is an easy way to isolate those missing tracks.+
+1. Create a standard playlist called "Not Missing".+
+2. Drag your entire library into that playlist. Missing tracks cannot+
+be copied to a playlist.+
+3. Create a smart playlist called where you select the following conditions in the options window for the new smart playlist:+
+*dropdown menu* PLAYLIST+
+*dropdown menu* IS NOT+
+*dropdown menu* NOT MISSING.+
+4. Rename the smart playlist "Missing"+
+5. Right Click the "Missing" playlist+
+6. Click the "Export..." option+
+7. Select the Plain Text option and Desktop location+
My missing playlistable items represent a better part of a decades worth of audiobook files, transfered files from my PC days, etc... i loved my - now missing - Doctor Who and Torchwood purchases from iTunes.
I have already read the Trouble Shooting, checked Time Machine Backup, and been walked through replacing the preferences list. The missing file path from the "get info" options in iTunes points towards a non-existant file.
_Problem Two (2) Downloading From iTunes Store_
I have had problems downloading files from iTunes for months. I first noticed it with the TV Show "Avatar: The Last Airbender". Lately, when I download from the (non-music) part of the store, the majority of files are downloaded and then immediately not found. This has been prompting iTunes to repeat the download. Until I force quit itunes and *potentially cry*.
There have been multiple iTunes store purchases of audio books recently. If I reported the missing file immediately, I can contact iTunes support to repost the file and that usually fixes the issue. But today, I went to go rewatch "Torchwood: Children of Earth" and noticed Problem One.
_Hind Sight_
If provided with a spreadsheet of my iTunes Store purchase history, I can write a vlookup( formula in excel to compare the list against my exported missing list so a shortlist of what is missing from just my iTunes Store purchase history can be created (hint: it's the majority of items from the list, others are years worth of files from my PC days). If we could do that, could iTunes make my missing purchases available?
Then we can focus on purely, trying to figure out why they went missing in the first place - so we can prevent it again & possibly help others from running into the same.
Plea
I strongly suspect the two issues are related to a root cause ... in addition to my user error in file management of backups ... what is going on?

iTunes Support (Eric) emailed me some instructions. I am posting, in hopes that this will help others.
_Suggestions from iTunes Support_

Troubleshooting 2. Direct Assistance
_Results based on Suggestions_
Results on "Searching the harddrive" - did not resolve my concerns

How to remove available downloads from the list

how to remove available downloads from the list without it resuming when i open itunes or check for available downloads?

There is not a way to remove them from the list. Just let them download, and then delete them from your library when they are done.

HT1725 When I click on a Movie I get the following "You have already purchased this item but it has not been downloaded. To download it, select Check For Available Downloads from the Store menu." Then get err = 11111

iTunes quit unexpectedly during the download of a movie. When I click on that movie now I get the following message: "You have already purchased this item but it has not been downloaded. To download it, select Check For Available Downloads from the Store menu."
I follow the instructions, but the download still doesn't resume - err = 11111
Any advice?

Yeah, I am going to blast my iPhone for the 4th time today and pray this goes away. I had 6 apps showing updates, the 6 badge icon shows on the App Store on my iPhone and, having run them all, the 6 apps have two copies each on my iPhone: one that is the old version of the app and will not run and the other is a faded version of the app with an empty progress bar on the icon. Click those and you get an error message about connecting to iTunes, etc. as described in the article I linked to above.
It gets stranger than this. If I install a completely NEW app, the 6 that are stuck mid-update heal themselves and appear with the new version only, however now completely different apps (Hold Em for instance - which I did not update and didn't need an update) will not launch "app name Cannot Launch" message comes up.
Agh!

Very slow video downloading from iTunes

I have a FIOS 75Mbit connection (and get can 75Mbit on my N-router and Macbook Pro's WIFI). But my new 1080p Apple TV is another matter. Two minute trailers take longer than 2 minutes to download. Half hour HD TV shows can take 90 minutes to download! And if I try to watch a movie I rented, Apple TV tells me it'll be ready to watch in "about 5 hours".
So my immediate reaction is ***. Any ideas why my wireless performance is so great with my MBP and so terrible with my AppleTV (just 10 feet away)

I stumbled across this thread looking for help with the same issue...slow to very slow movie downloads from iTunes.
Changing the DNS, both on my iMac as well as my Airport Extreme router helped.
I'm on Comcast and generally get around 33Mbps downloads via speedtest.net. Based on several Namebench tests Google's Public DNS (8.8.8.8) has always been on top and I've always configured my router and Macs using the top 3 Namebench recommendations with Google at #1 position. However while downloading movies from iTunes Activity Monitor showed very sharp "Data received/sec" rises and falls...anywhere from 4.40MB/sec to 100KB/sec or sometimes zero. Most of the time it would start off well, but trail off to very poor and sporatic speeds after about 30 seconds.
Per finaleMile's and other's recommendations elsewhere I removed Google Public DNS from the settings on my router and iMac and things improved with respect to stability. Although the "top speed" of about 4.40Mbps didn't improve, downloads did smooth out and remain between about 2.30Mbps to 4.10Mbps during the entire download. Not speedy but a marked improvement in stability and overall download time.
Thanks for the tip!
BTW, I've found that during regular web surfing, using Google's Public DNS is faster so I re-add it after downloading movies from iTunes. It's a bit of a PIA, but worth it. Wish there were a better option though.
FWIW I tend to download rented and purchased movies to iTunes on my iMac and then play them back via my Apple TV3 rather than "stream" them directly from iTunes. That way if there are external network problems they won't have a negative impact on our viewing experience.

Iphone won't download from itunes (purchases or updates) and keeps asking for password

My new Iphone 6 won't download from itunes, whether it is a new purchase, previous purchase or update. Itunes keeps asking for password. Icloud seems to be working, find my phone works, so what do I do? I've signed out and back in to the app store. Restarted my phone. Ugh!!

When you plug in the iPhone, go to the menu bar and select "Transfer all purchases" to move them to your MacBook Pro.
If that doesn't work. Go here for a whole list of Apps that can help you.
I personally like Music Rescue the most. You can get it here and use the License Key that they give out for FREE now.
