Error in reading downloaded iTunes music file

I have downloaded an iTunes music file. After playing for 30sec it blocks and iTunes goes to the next track (the official duration is more than 2min)
Is there a way I can re-download the file?
Thanks

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

    == Error -54 ==
    From an OS9 reference, error -54 is a software lock on a file or a permissions error. (Some of the old codes still apply to OSX although there is no formal list of OSX error codes.)
    First, try simply restarting your computer.

  • My PC is not reading my itunes music files, all I get is '!'

    Hi, my computer recently crashed and I had to recovery the HDD and lose all my materials, but I still had all my itunes media on a separate drive. Anyway, I redownloaded itunes and now I added a folder of over 4800 songs, all either individual mp3 files or albums in folders. Now that all the albums are up (I lost a lot of the album covers too) I am having trouble playing music on itunes.
    Whenever I click on most songs, I get a '!' saying that I have to now search for the file because it cannot be found. I have to search for EVERY song before it can find it. I have over 4800 songs, so I can't realistically search for EVERY ONE. Under 'Preferences' I went into "Advanced" and chose the folder where my songs would be read from. Yet still I have this problem. Funny thing is that it doesn't do it for EVERY song, but I would say about 90% of them. Why is my itunes not reading my files? I have the latest version of itunes on my PC and there is no problem with any of my mp3 files as they are all well and play fine on my ipod. The strange thing here is that all of my movies play just fine, I have 34 digital copy movies on my itunes. I have Windows 7.
    Please help, this is a really annoying thing to deal with!

    Since you mention PC, I'm guessing that you are referring to a Windows machine. If so, then see this support document.  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538

  • Error can t Download the Music iTunes Match

    Error can t Download the Music iTunes Match

    Is it giving you a specific error number? And what kind of network connection do you have?
    One thing you might try is 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. Not sure it would help, but it will not hurt.

  • TS3212 I have removed my pop-up blocker completely and still receive the following error message when attempting to download iTunes:  "The file was blocked because it does not have a valid digital signature that verifies its publisher".....any ideas?

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

    I know this doesn't help you Bud, but I've had this issue for at least the last couple of versions.  If I can ask, what is you enviornment like?  Local PC only, libray saved on another PC/Server? 
    In my case my library is on Windows 2003 server with the share mapped to drive M:  This has worked for many years through both XP and Windows 7 until and update a while ago.

    Well I was able to successfully revert back to iTunes8. Here's my steps:
    1. In Add/Remove Programs I deleted all Apple products (iTunes, QuickTime, Safari, Bonjour, etc.)
    2. I then check C:\Program Files\ and made sure all folders were deleted (QuickTime, etc.)
    3. I then ran a Registry Cleaner program to make sure all entries from Apple products were removed.
    4. I then rebooted my PC
    5. I then downloaded iTunes8.0.2 from here: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/ipod_itunes/itunes802forwindows.html
    6. After it installed it said it could use my iTunes library file because it was created with a newer version. So I re-created my library by following these steps: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451
    It took some time but iTunes is now back up and running. And I have all my playlists, etc. I haven't tried to sync anything yet. I'm just thrilled to have my iTunes back!

  • Error message -48: The itunes library file cannot be saved.

    Hello,
    When I open up my itunes i get an error message 48 - the itunes library file cannot be saved. All my data is there - music, podcasts etc. Just wondering if this error message means anything, if so what, and what I can do to fix it?
    Thanks!

    I just called Apple Support and I think they helped me, but I'm still waiting to see if the error message returns. I was experiencing the same problem. Whenever I started iTunes, I would get the -48 error message. Everything else was working fine. Apple Support instructed me to delete some files from a folder and restart my pc. I did this and it seems to have worked. The folder is on my C:/ drive. Using Windows Explorer, I went to my C:/ drive and then opened the following folders in this order: "Documents and Settings", "Administrator", "Application Data", "Apple Computer", "iTunes", "iPod Software Updates". Inside the iPod Software Updates folder, I found four files which I deleted. I then emptied my trash can and restarted my pc. After I restarted my pc and opened iTunes, the error message did not come up. So it looks like my problem has been solved. Just some minor glitch having to do with the last update. I should mention that I did just get an iPod Classic 80 gig which replaced my 30 gig iPod Photo which just died.

  • I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files (not i-tunes purchases) which I just can't get into my i-tunes library. File converters don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

    I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files which I can't get into i-tunes. When the library was in Windows, i-tunes would convert the files automatically, but this doesn't happen now. I've downloaded a couple of file converters, but these don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

    iTunes for Windows (but not iTunes for Mac) can import and convert unprotected WMA tracks. If the tracks are protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management) then it will not accept them.
    One option would be to install iTunes on your PC, do the conversion, and then transfer the converted tracks from iTunes on your PC to iTunes on your Mac.

  • I am not able to download the music files i purchased several days ago

    My account hacked. I know that because person changed the security question but not the password. I made a purchased recently. Purchased songs and there was a previous two book purchase from Apple Store. When i try to download them to my Mac, i am receiving this error message:" This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 90 days. " I downloaded the music files on my windows and my mini ipod. Nowhere else.
    I have two more Apple ID i use to purchase products.
    Also is there a way to combine these two Apple IDs so all my purchases will be under one Apple ID.
    Thanks for any help

  • Locking the itunes music file?

    I have just spent several days sorting out my music files, and I think I have fianlly got it OK now.
    My question is this..
    In order to avoid screwing up the folder I now have on my external Hard Drive, is it possible for me to lock that folder, and therefore keep it "safe"?
    During this whole process of sorting things out, I have made some real rookie errors in how I copied files to different locations, and as a result there are itunes music files and folders all over my computer. I am hoping to secure the "good" folder and then delete all the rest of these files and folders.
    How about if I simply reboot without the external HD plugged in?
    Ideas anyone?
    Thanks
    Bart

    Was I suppose to click on the "music" folder that was already in the itunes folder, or click on the "music" folder on the external drive that I thought I already copied to Itunes music. I clicked on the folder already in itunes and all it did was give me duplicates of the songs in my libary and theres some that still aren't being found.

  • How do I download a music file from a pc laptop

    How do I download a music file from a pc laptop?

    This is an iPad forum. Consult your Windows manual on how to download music.
    After you have downloaded and it's the format iPad supports, drag and drop music into computer iTunes.
    Connect and select iPad in iTunes, check the misic selection and sync.

  • Downloaded a music file which originally played through my playlist, but now says it cannot find the original file associated with it.  Takes me to the root directory, but this does not help.

    Downloaded a music file which originally played through my playlist in iTunes but now it comes up with a message that the original file cannot be located although the file appears in the play list.  It asks if it should search for the relevant file which takes me to the root directory and is no help.

    Hello gordon175
    You would need to locate the song on your computer to link them back up so it will play. If you cannot find it and it was purchased from the iTunes Store, you can delete the track and download it again for free.
