Disappearing downloaded items

I recently suffered a major drive crash. I sent Apple a message regarding recovering some of my downloaded items (specifically a season of a TV Show). It downloaded, but now I can't find it at all. It is not in its folder, and iTunes doesn't know where it is (the exclamation point comes up next to all the episodes). Now, I can't re-re-download it from iTunes because Apple restricts reporting problems/recovering downloaded items to one time.

Did you do a search of your HD using Spotlight?

How to delete the downloading items in itunes?

how to delete the downloading items in itunes?

Unfortunately, this doesn't work. If you let them download and delete them, they just download again at some point in the future. I've been trying to figure this one out myself, but so far, every time I remove something, it comes back "later".

Hi Poonam26c,
If you do not have a local copy of a song which you have purchased (i.e. it is available via iTunes in the Cloud), you may need to redownload it before you can transfer it to your device. You may find the following article helpful:

I'm having problems with my iPad I downloaded I downloaded pro for two dollars and now when I try to download other apps in the app store it wAnts to kno my personal card info on free items and won't let me download items I already erase the I downloadeder pro but I don't kno way to do?

Also, when I go on to safari, another alert pops up that safari cannot verify the identity of the website, anything that I type in to as common as google.com. It gives me 3 options to either cancel, look at details, and continue. I've looked at the details of the website of Google and it is legitimate the site. Any help?

Ability to run Reports on Media Download items... (Enhancement Request)

I would like to suggest that ABC consider enhancing the Reports section to allow users to run reports on the Media Download items. I have a client that is interested in tracking their download activity of whitepapers and brochures off their website, and while you can go to each of the individual items and see the activity in a graph, this is limiting in a number of ways.
Activity is not able to be pulled into their own reporting system and they have to manually re-enter the numbers based on day, month, etc... to get the information. We should be able to export the information and have it pulled down via CSV like other statistics on the site.
It's cumbersome and time consuming to have to go to each individual item and look at the "Activity" one at a time. If this were added to the Reports section, users could go in and review the Media Downloads (in total) to see how many times information is being pulled off their site, but then use the sort/selection options to quickly jump to each of the individual Media Download items. As with #1, it would also be advisable to have this data exportable into a CSV file so that it can be used in Excel, then sorted that way.
It would also be good to add the Media Downloads as an option to the Custom Reports area, so that a client could save certain search options to pull specific sets Media Download items to see what's being downloaded from their site.
Hopefully this can get some traction in the ABC community, or if someone out there is aware of how to do this otherways, please let me know. I did chat with SBC support via Chat and they indicated that what I wanted to do was not possible at this time.
Thanks,
Eric

Eric- While you are waiting for this feature to be added to reporting-- have you tried using Google Analytics Event Tracking to track the downloads? You'll get an accurate representation of downloads if you hook that up.
For more information on Event Tracking see: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/gajs/eventTrackerGuide
You might, for instance, make sure all your Media Download links have a class of "media-download" and using javascript can track a "Download" event when those links are clicked.

"Unable to download items" error message on iPhone Music App

On my new iPhone only some of the songs from my itunes song list would download to the "Music" app. All the Albume covers and titels show in the dowloads section of my itunes app but underneath the song title it says "Download error. Tap to retry"? When I do I keep getting the error message "Unable to download items"? Funny because about 10 of the songs from the itunes app moved over to the music app but the rest won't? Anybody run into this? Thanks!

I am still working on this problem and I just noticed that when I go back into itunes on my computer and then go to "File" then "Devices" all the tabs under devices are greyed out so I am unable to sync or transfer purchases?

I cannot see the downloaded item in the downloads screen after the download is complete

This started from the previous release I guess... I cannot see the downloaded item... for example when I tried to download the latest adobe flash player ... it showed the message the download was successful... but the download screen did not have any item listed.

I have not contacted Adobe. I am using acrobat pro CC, and haven't noticed any problem with the software itself. The only problem I have had so far is when I try to download.

I have the same thing happening on my iPod Touch 5th gen. Been happening for at least a month. I have updated to the most recent version of iOS which hasn't solved the issue. Must be a bug that they didn't get around to resolving yet, a year later. Really annoying to have it pop up when you are in the middle of a game though.

Error message unable to download item

I Keep getting Error message "unable to download item try again later" on my iPad. I don't know of any item I don't have downloaded. I have the latest iOS 8 installed. On my iTunes purchsed list I have one song with a red square with a white E that I don't know what it means.

I Have the same error message. It all started after I downloaded the U2 album free from iTunes. Seems like I got more than I bargained for! I have done all the ios8 updates, including 8.1, but still getting the message. It makes everything run so slow while my iPad 2 tries in vain to download. Doesn't happen on my work iPad mini where I didn't download the U2 album. So go figure...

Download items from Safari's Activity window DEAD OS X.7 Lion

Downloading items from Safari's (5.1) Activity window DEAD- Mac OS X.7 Lion
Aargghhh this was brilliant before for grabbing stuff and not working now,
all i get is a massive amount of text showing up and no download anymore.
Yup you can download an earlier version (5.0.6) but Lion will not swallow it
tried pacifist to open the old package but even that fails.
thought i could find it inside and run it.
so....
what now?
is there a way round this?
a third party plug in!
something?
anyone got any idea how to sort this out?
so i can grab filmclips pictures etc...
just like before.

I thought I was the only person who was grieving the loss of this feature. I used it mostly for downloading PDFs as preview handles them so much better than shoddy propriety viewers, or even the "preview in safari" mode. During my degree it was invaluable to me as it also let me save these files into folders and keep them for referencing later.
To further exlpain; it was one of the features which set Safari out from the rest. The activity window shows all the different elements of the website which are either being loaded or which have been downloaded. It will show elements of javascript, images, music, PDFs etc embedded in the page including videos and the like.
Within that activity window, you can also see (and copy!) the DIRECT LINK address of each element of the page. ie: Where the actual media files are being hosted, downloaded or streamed from. Certain sites disable this feature for protected works, as they are entitled to do so, but the vast majority allow it.
When we had a separate downloads window, instead of this overlay box in the Lion safari, it enabled the end user to copy the DIRECT LINK in the activity window using Ctrl + C and do the following:
1) Either paste it into the address bar to watch/ listen to the media free from the other elements of the page which waste memory/ get in the way
2) Paste it into the "Downloads" window (Using Ctrl + V) which would instantly start downloading the file, as if you had clicked a "Download file ABC Now" link on a web page.
With the loss of the download window, only option 1 is available. This means that only images and certain formats of video/ audio will be viewable off the website in question ie: ones that quicktime can play. And the current version of quicktime embedded within safari doesn't give you the option to "Download a copy" or "Save as" like older versions used to.
This may necessitate a revisiting of Firefox, which has a "Media browser" function.
I wonder if there is perhaps a bookmarklet out there which forces a download of whatever is dragged onto it. Any ideas?

Hi - how do I download items already purchased? I have tried store and search for available downloads but it tells me they are already downloaded - they are not however - fyi I lost my phone so I am using a new phone with the same apple id and assumed I could just re-access my previously purcahsed items - how do I find them to download?
Many thanks

many thanks for a really fast response - Yes I have seen on other postings since you only get one hit and you are right I should have backed up and didn't as I am a bit of a novice and naive (but learning fast now). Have used your suggestion and accessed and downloaded some historical apps.
many thanks - I will ensure I back up regularly going forward.
Thanks again

I cannot download past purchased on my iPad. I'm getting error "unable to download item"

I cannot download music on from ITunes for past purchased on my iPad. I'm getting error "unable to download item"

I removed the sim card, reset the phone by simultaneously pressing the power and the home keys then turned off wifi. Put the sim card back in, it asked for the Apple ID password and I just hit cancel and the phone worked fine after that. Come on Apple, get your stuff together.

PS4 unable to download items in the download queue in standby mode

My PS4 use to be able to remotely download items purchased from PSN web store but not anymore. Items remain in the download queue and only started to download when I turn on my PS4. Game patches are downloaded automatically while in standby mode without any problem. I double checked the setting just in case and everything is as it should be. Much appreciated from any assistance provided. Edit: I have followed some suggestion posted in other forums, including delete all notification message and set my PS4 as primary. Still not working.

Same here. This is annoying. With updates it's random. With purchased games, it doen't work until I get home and turn on my PS4 from rest mode. The Download List says that it will start once my PS4 is turned on. It's in rest mode, that's the point of rest mode, right? I have everything enabled, so it's defintely not the system and I'm definitely not the only one facing this issue.
