Download i bought says it is in the itunes music folder but i can't find it

I bought two albums last night (not from itunes store) and attempted to download them. During this the computer froze for a minute. The download appeared to finish. When I checked my itunes library tho i could not find the albums. This morning I attempted to download again and got a message saying these files already existed did i wish to replace-which I did. But I can't find them anywhere.
To dowload I clicked the download button. Selected 'save' and clicked My music- itunes-library-music.

I suffered the same issue here is a bit of information on the issue.
XP Pro over wireless (always worked before) and installed the latest ITunes (released 7/15) upgrade.
Will not reliably complete a download. Hangs on conformation from the system that the file is there. The file isn't so it never completes.
If you quit ITunes and the restart it, ITunes will not continue downloading those songs because it thinks it completed the download. So those songs are now lost.
When shutting down the computer you will find orphaned Itunes processes that are consuming resources and require a kill signal.
This is a rather large bug for windows users and needs to be addressed as quickly as possible. Personally I am out $25 at this moment and am spending time trying to get the issue resolved
This is a rather

  • Restored my Macbook Pro but my iTunes content was saved on a separate partition. When I re-setup iTunes the status bar reports 30gb less content than my iTunes Music folder. How can I find what is 'missing'?

    My Macbook Pro software was failing and the Apple Store was able to restore it without removing the partition on my hard drive that contained most of my files including all my iTunes content. Initially when I re-setup my library I simply went to file--> add to library. Shortly after I realized that was essentially copying the library to the other portion of the partition because I forgot to change the location of the library. So I deleted the content already copied & then I re-setup the library, by asking it to be pulled from the previous location using this pages advice: iTunes: How to open an alternate iTunes Library file or create a new one
    It appeared to work & everything I thought was imported. But on closer inspection, it appears that I have 30gbs less appearing on the status bar in the iTunes app than I do when I pull up the info on the iTunes Music folder in my finder. I'm not sure if this means somehow I have 30gbs of duplicates in my finder folder or if (most likely) I somehow didn't fully import the library from that file. Any advice? Is there a way to restore iTunes to factory settings again & set it up correctly this time?
    Also I never actually trashed the original content I accidentally transferred to the other drive but when i skimmed those in my trash bin it appears they ARE indeed in iTunes, so I have no clue what didn't actually import. Any ideas?! I'd greatly appreciate it!

    You could have all the computers point to the same library but it can't be opened by more than one at any time.
    No answer for knowing which library is in use other than selecting it at startup.  This question gets asked here occasionally but I don't think it is a high-demand feature since most people have just one library.  I guess you could put in an empty playlist with the library name so you have an identifier.

    Hi Rebecca
    I spend a fair bit of time answering question on this forum, but I had to do a clean reinstall of my operating system, and reload all programs recently. And I can't say it was particulary easy to find and download the Desktop Application manager, which handles the rest of the installations for you.

    Hello RumDog,
    I think this article will help you find the media in your library.
    Where are my iTunes files located?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
    Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
    Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
    Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
    Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
    Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
    You can then:
    Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
    Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
    Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
    If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
    Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."

  • I downloaded yosemite as the new operating system but I can't find iphotos since then

    I restored my mac to factory settings and downloaded yosemite as the new operating system but I can't find iphotos since then. When I go into Icloud it takes me to apple page. PLease help!
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    1 - you need to update your profile as you state that you have OS X 10.6.3 in it
    2 - for Yosemite you need to backup your iPhoto library and install iPhoto 9.6 from the App store - if you are upgrading from iPhoto '08 or earlier you need to also run the iPhoto Library upgrader prior to launching iPhoto 9.6
    3 - Your photos are NOT in iCloud - it is not a place to store photos - it is only to move photos between devices (MyPhotoStream) or people (shared PhotoStreams) - they are (by default) in the iphoto library in your pictures folder - if you did not backup your iphoto library prior to erasing you disk then they are gone

  • HT2492 I am using Snow Leopard and the icon for dashboard was removed from the dock.  Does anyone knopw how to put it back?  I have searched Finder, Trash and the Applications folder but i can't find it.  It works when i press F4 so it must still be there

    I have searched Finder, Trash and the applications folder but i can't find where it is kept.  I want to put the icon for Dashboard back in the dock - how can i do this?

    The combo update may replace anything you have inadvertently deleted.
    Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
    You can reapply it over the top of any previously downloaded version.  I see that your profile says 10.6.8.
    Then software update to pick up any new security, iTunes updates.

  • I have an iMac running OX 10.5.8 I need a portable external harddrive to back it up before updating the software to Yosemite but I can't find anything that doesn't require you to be running at least OX 10.6.  Is there a suitable hard drive?

    I have an iMac running OX 10.5.8
    I need a portable external hard drive to back it up before updating the software to Yosemite but I can't find anything that doesn't require you to be running at least OX 10.6.  Is there a suitable hard drive?  I'm not very technical and wouldn't know how to do any formatting so I want it to be very basic so that I can just plug it in.  500GB should be more than adequate.

    Correct.  When you purchase devices, they would have stated the OS they needed to work, on the box.  This can be overlooked, but it is very important to check when purchasing. 
    You current OS, is so old, that they technology build into the new devices, is not something your OS understands.  It didn't exist when your OS was created, and therefore you need to upgrade the OS to work with the newer technology of these devices.
    10.6 software is not downloadable.  You must purchase a DVD disc.  You can order it from the on-line apple store

  • Can the path to the iTunes Music folder be locked?

    I'm trying to simplify the results of my own occasional user error.
    Can the path to the iTunes Music folder be locked?
    I have my library stored on an external drive that I keep turned off when not in use. If I accidentally start iTunes with that drive off, it recreates the original iTunes Music folder and directs itself there.
    Can that behavior be stopped? It seems like there should be a way for iTunes to send a pop up or something, rather than this automated over ride to manual settings.

    Yeah, I know I don't have an end of the world scenario here.
    But just remounting the drive doesn't do it. I have to go back into iTunes and reset the folder location. Then wait several minutes as it all reorganizes itself.
    I know just leaving the drive on is the easiest answer. It causes too much of a domestic dispute about all the blinking boxes I have running all the time. I have convinced her that the green one on the AEBS has to be on if she wants internet.

  • TS1389 I am trying to authorise a new computer. The Apple instructions are to select Authorise this computer from the itunes store menu. I can't find this in any menu. Can you please help? How do I authorise my computer?

    I am trying to authorise a new computer. Apple's instructions are to select "Authorise this computer" from the itunes store menu. I can't find this in any menu. Can you please help? How do I authorise my computer?

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

    If you still have the receipt or other proof of purchase, you can ask Apple to send you the serial. Otherwise, bad luck mate.. Good news is, you can now buy Logic Pro 9 from App Store for just 199 USD

  • Is there a way to have iTunes show what is in the iTunes music folder?

    I have several folders that I moved from an old iTunes music folder into a newer one on a different HD. I just put the music into the folder, but not into iTunes. So now, I have a huge folder of music that doesn't show up in my iTunes library. I was cleaning off the HD to make room for something else, so I deleted the "old" iTunes folder with all the music in it. The music is in my new iTunes folder, but not in my iTunes program. Sorry this is so convoluted!
    What I want to know is this: Is there a way to have iTunes recognize and check for music in the iTunes folder that is not already in the iTunes program? Exactly what does consolidate library do? Could that solve the issue? I am a little intimidated because it says that it cannot be undone.
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Chris,
    You're a GENIUS!! Thank you!! That's exactly what I was looking for. I am in the process of doing it right now. Hopefully, everything goes well. You just made my day!

  • I've transferred. Some photos in my iPhone 4s using the app ''simple transfer'' but I can't find the option to delete those photos from iPhone, if any body knows let me know please??

    I've tranferred some photos in my iPhone 4s using the app called simple transfer lite, but still can't find any option to delete those photos, if any body knows how to do this please let me know.

    I have a suggestion, noted below,  but I'd like a little more information please.  Are you saying that after you've transfered photos to your PC or Mac you want to then delete them from the iPhone?  If they're photos taken with the iPhone couldn't you just go back into Camera roll and delete them there?
    I had a similar situation with my parent's iPhone and iPad.  I synced a couple of folders of photos via iTunes on their laptop to the iPad.  The intent was to use the slideshow feature on the iPad as a digital photo frame.  To save time, I had synced all the photos in the folders, thinking that my mom could delete the pics she didn't want.  After doing this I found I couldn't delete any of the pictures synced this way.  I came to find out that pictures contained in folders synced via iTunes cannot be deleted from the iOS device.
    A friend suggested a paid app called PhotoSync.  It's $1.99 and no, I have absolutely no connection to the deveolper.  It's just an app that does exactly what I needed it to do.  After transfering photos you can go into camera roll or an album and delete them.  There is a companion free app that you install on your PC or Mac that makes the transfers very easy.
    I have less than 15 apps on my iPhone.  I generally like free apps but, as I've said, I found this app does what I needed to do so I was happy to spend the money.
    Good luck.
