Downloaded song, shows up in my itunes library but it will not play. What do I do?

I purchased a song on itunes and downloaded it. It shows up in my library but it will not play. It is as if it did not download at all.
What do I do. I do not want to have to purchase it again.

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads with the same problem then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

I recently downloaded songs from the itunes store to my computer but they will not sync to my ipod. I have sync lots of music before so I do not know what the problem is any ideas anyone?

Connect the device to the computer.
Open iTunes.
Select the content desired to sync.
Sync.
Same way it has always worked.

I added several tracks into my itunes library but they will not play?

I added several tracks that came off a DVD burned in my brothers Itunes program. Now, my Itunes library shows the music in both numbers and space used. Now when I try to play the music it will not play? Can anyone advise me as to how to make the music play in my Itunes program?

Imported album to itunes library but it will not sync to my ipod, tried with my husbands ipod and the same thing. What could be the problem?

imported an album to my itunes library, but it won't sync with my ipod classic. I tried it with my husbands ipod also and the same problem. What could be the problem?

Thank you all for your replies. Here is what i ended up doing. I cannot afford any 3rd party software so i went to itunes and manually entered all my playlists. As I had indicated my purchased music was on my new computer just not the playlists and I could not sync my ipod. After I rebuilt all my playlists I tried to restore my ipod to factory defaults/new. All of the steps called for in apple support and elsewhere were not available to me. I connected my ipod, went to my computer, right clicked my ipod, and formatted. That wiped my ipod so when I connected to itunes it then gave me a restore option. I did the restore and all is good in the empire again. I can now buy new music and sync my ipod so I am a happy camper.
Thanks to all.

My songs show up in the iTunes library but not on my iPod

I had my songs on my iPod Touch 3rd Generation for and I plugged it in over night. The next day I went to my music on my iPod and it said "No content available. Download songs from iTunes" I went to iTunes on my Dell computer and they are all there. I got most songs back except for ones I recently purchased.

This might sound weird, but here's an idea which worked for me re music that was newly added to itunes and showed up in my ipod but wouldn't play - I simply played the tracks in itunes first, just a second of time or so will do it, not the whole track, then connect the ipod and sync again and this time they played - hope this helps.

Songs show up in my iTunes Library that I have not purchased - anyone else have this happen?

So I was just organizing my iTunes library and am finding songs that I have not purchased, have not interest in and are coming via the cloud.
Is anyone else seeing this? When I try to delete, it will only allow me to hide them... ***?!

Is your cloud account shared with anyone else? Maybe they're adding them.

I have Apple TV. Today I rented a movie to watch on it. It took the money from my itunes account but it will not play. Every time I try to play it flashes error occurred while downloading and to try again later. I have unplugged everything and no luck

I have Apple TV. Today I rented a movie to watch on it. It took my money from my itunes account. It keeps saying that a problem occurred while downloading. It also says to try again later. I have turned off and I have unplugged but nothing works. What do I need to do?

Something like this happened to me, where something went wrong on Apple's end and a movie I rented wouldn't play. I contacted Apple over the phone and they gave me back my money and fixed the problem for future use.

I bought a tv show from the itunes store, but it will not play the ending. How do I fix that?!

It must have not downloaded all the way... what do I do>!

Delete the Album including files from your iTunes, then go to the iTunes Store and select "Purchased" from the Quick Links side bar on the right. Go through Music tabs to download again for free

I am new to iTunes. I have downloaded the player onto my PC. I bought a documentary, but it will not play. On the player the screen is just black (also no sound), but the timer works and shows that something is happening. Any suggestions?

Hi there Graham!
I have a couple of articles that can help you troubleshoot this issue. First, if you are downloading HD content, you will need to know the system requirements for HD playback, which can be found here:
iTunes: Purchasing and viewing HD videos
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3209
Next, you will want to check your video playback settings on your Windows machine. The steps for that can be found right here:
Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7 video playback performance issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1718
Hope that helps. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

You need to sync the app to the iPod
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Is the app compatible with your model iPod and iOS?
Are any Restrictions set that would prevent installing the app on your iPod? Settings>General>Restrictions
Do any apps no sync to the iPod?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Have you successfully synced aps to this iPod from this iTunes library before?

HT1725 What if I download music from my friends computer with his account and there's a song that shows up in my music library but I can't play it because it didn't finish downloading. What can I do to finish downloading it ?

You're right, it would have been covered under warranty. But because of the user damage, chances are there's a 200-something dollar fee . If you explain to them that it had a defect previously, they might replace it for you at no charge. **MIGHT**. But they would have to believe that it had a defect previously.

I purchases a cd on iTunes and one of the songs shows that it is downloaded but it will not play. The rest of the songs play but this one song doesn't and it looks like it is downloaded completely. What do I do?

Delete and redownload it if doing so is free in your country.
