Downloading songs to ipad when homesharing

How do I download itunes songs onto my ipad when homes haring with my imac? They are both connected to home sharing. I can stream itunes songs from my ipad. I want to download songs to ipad so I can play them when I'm not at home and connected to home sharing.

Hello!
You can't, unless you purchased these songs via iTunes Store or are using iTunes Match on both devices. Home Sharing is for streaming only as a copyright protection.

    I started downloading a rental movie on apple tv, but I live in a rural area with terrible Internet download speed...is there anyway to stop the download, and resume downloading, onto my iPad when I have access in an urban setting with high speed Internet?

    Yes, to be honest I was a little surprised myself. But it absolutely didn't connect when plugged into the test socket (I even tried to force a connection from the Home Hub manager but it wasn't having it). It is definitely the master socket. The only extension is a small piece of (engineer installed) phone cable to link the hub and the master socket (because the socket and mains power are unhelpfully on opposite walls of the hallway).
    I ran the Java download for Google anyway and it only took about an hour. The speedtester results are as follows:
     Download speed achieved during the test was - 109 Kbps
     For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 50-250 Kbps.
     Additional Information:
     Your DSL Connection Rate :2560 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
     IP Profile for your line is - 135 Kbps
    I don't as a rule disconnect / reboot the hub; today it has been dropping off on its own, while several days ago I tried a few reboots just to try and get a connection.
    Additional info - my exchange is actually called Claypole Fenton (or vice versa). Whatever, my profile has probably been welded to 135k for days and days.
    Cheers

  • I downloaded songs on itunes, when I go to sync it to my ipod it "says" its syncing and then it shows up on the capacity bar but there are no songs on my ipod

    In itune did you play any of the songs downloaded. If so plug your ipod back in an manualy check off to sync all music. If that doesn't work you might have to restore the ipod.

  • ITunes Match keeps downloading songs on iPad 2

    I have an iPad 2 anud turned on iTunes Match. I realized that I was downloading doubles of songs onto my iPad via my playlists (Purchased AAC and AAC) and I turned some of the songs off and I went to the iTunes store to purchase a new album and found out I was downloading and I have automatic downloads turned off on my iPad. Why is that happening and how do I get it to stop. Do I turn off iTunes Match and the see all downloaded and then sync?? Need help... My 16 gigs is filled up so when I delete a few downloaded songs I didn't even download from the cloud, it downloads more. It's a vicious cycle

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    I would suspect, but not certain, you should go ahead and turn Match On before the reset, but it just as easily could be irrelevent.
    Woudl also add that the first time I turn iTunes Match On on the iPad, it turned out to be best to let it site and run a few minutes before attempting anything. But I have a sizable (17,000 track) library. After that all was well.

  • Can't Erase Partially Downloaded Song Off iPad

    Recently, I downloaded an album on to my iPad and it seemingly downloaded just fine.  But once I was on my MacBook, and going through the "On this iPad" screen in iTunes 11, I noticed something weird:
    As you can see, there's two copies of the song "Spring Vacation".  One, which is downloaded, and another one, which looks like it attempted to download, but did not.  I would like to remove the attempted download from the list, but I have not been able to do this.  I have done a hard reset on the iPad, and have turned off and re-enabled iTunes Match, but it still remains.
    Any solution to remove this annoyance would be much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    The only solution for these "ghost tracks" is to erase all contents on the device, then restore it from a backup.

  • Download songs on ipad

    My iTunes for iPad doesn't show the song or film button, only the podcast one. What's the problem and what should i do?

    On the iPhone and iPad tap Settings > Store
    Make sure Music is swtiched on under Automatic Downloads.
    Then restart the devices.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • HT1535 I own an iPhone4, an iPod 3rd generation and an iPad 2. I use the same iTunes library but unfortunately synced iPad with a different computer before syncing to my own. Do I risk losing the films/apps I've downloaded onto my iPad if I sync with my i

    I don't want to sync what is on my iPod to my iPad. (I have a 32gb iPod but only 16gb on iPad. The iPod I use mostly for music.) I can't seem to add the films I have downloaded onto iPad to iTunes. If I could do that, I could erase them from iPad to create more storage.
    This is intensely confusing, sorry.

    Question.....
    "I own an iPhone4, an iPod 3rd generation and an iPad 2. I use the same iTunes library but unfortunately synced iPad with a different computer before syncing to my own. Do I risk losing the films/apps I've downloaded onto my iPad if I sync with my iPod?"
    Answer.....
    Yes you will lose the films that you downloaded to the iPad when you sync with your own iTunes unless you transfer the purchases into your own iTunes library. Were these movies that you purchased? If so, you might be able to download them again for free. Do you have multiple computers that you sync from or is this someone else's purchased content?
    You can select whatever you want to sync to all of your devices in iTunes, you do not have to sync the same content to all device.

  • HT5622 Why when I try to download songs onto my iPhone from my iPad, it pops up and says "This device is already associated with an Apple ID, You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days.

    Why when I try to download songs onto my iPhone from my iPad, it pops up and says "This device is already associated with an Apple ID, You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this device with a different Apple ID for 90 days
    (Note, mine says 28 days because I have been waiting for a fair bit for this to go away.)

    You can't keep changing the ID you use with iTunes, you are limited to once every 90 days.

  • TS3297 Hi, I've setup my new mini ipad today, restored a backup from icloud and all is fine.  However, when I try to download my music, they almost completely download then an error message pops up saying "unable to download songs" - can anyone help pleas

    Hi, I've setup my new mini ipad today, restored a backup from icloud and all is fine.  However, when I try to download my music, they almost completely download then an error message pops up saying "unable to download songs" - can anyone help please?

    So it appears iCloud/iTunes Match isn't the issue - the error message would seem to be complaining about where the music is being downloaded to. So with this in mind:
    In iTunes select Preferences and select Advanced. The iTunes media folder should be set to /Users/<your account>/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music. <your account> would be whatever your user account is. If you see something else there I'd guessing it is a folder you don't have permission to write to.

  • I download songs from my dropbox to my macbook pro and then upload them to my updated iTunes.  iTunes plays them in entirety, but when i update my iTunes match, my iPhone and iPad skip many of the songs and albums.  Why?  I have tried everything.

    If you have manually manage set, you do not sync.
    If you want to sync, select the content desired to sync and sync.

    Have you copied your content over from your old computer and onto the new on ? If not, and you still have your old computer, then there a number of methods described on this page which you can use to copy your library over : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 . If you no longer have your old computer then have you got a backup of your content that you can copy onto the new computer and add into iTunes ?
