Error when playing purchased music

Hi,
When I try to play music purchased from the iTunes Music store, I get an error. I'm first asked to login to my Apple account, which I do without problem, but I then get a -50 error and the music doesn't play.
The same music plays fine on another computer. I have less than 5 computers activated to play.
What should I do? The computer where I get the error is a first-generation black MacBook and it has all the latest software versions (including OS X 10.4.10 and iTunes 7.3).
Regards,
fh

Disc Error when downloading purchased music videos

Hi there,
I'm using the latest iTunes and have purchased 3 music videos. When I try to download them, I gett an error saying:
"There was an error download your purchased music. The disc could not be read from or written to"
Strange thing is, the disc is fine (an external Maxtor network drive), I can download normal music files (I've done this successfully since getting this message) so I'm stumped.
I've sent a mail to iTunes support, but I thought I'd see if anyone else has had this problem and can recommend a fix.
Cheers,
Pete

Hello Peter,
Check out the suggestions in this Apple Support article below:
"Disk could not be read from or written to"
Also, if your videos were only partially downloaded and you'd like to retrieve them, then you can go to "Advanced> check for purchases..." in iTunes, and see if that works.
I hope this helps!

Error when downloading purchased music - help? :S

Hi there!
I've purchased music (read: I've been charged), but am having issues downloading it from the store into iTunes (on my computer)
The error reads: There was a problem downloading (x song). Then below in lighter type - "The file seems to be corrupted. To redownload the file, choose "Check for Purchases" from the Store Menu."
The kicker is - when I follow the instructions in the error, I get the same error...
Has anyone come across this and does anyone know how to fix it???
TIA.

Error in playing purchased music

hello
after having moved all my music to my macbook some of my purchased tracks won't play in full length. on the laptop they simply skip to next track in the middle of the track and on my iPhone they just go quiet for the rest of the track's running time.
anyone knows about this problem?
thanks

Unfortunately not, the standard S60 music player has no feature to save position in a track.
The video centre feature in some S60 3rd Eidtion FP2 phones like the N96 has the feature to play videos from where they last stopped, but even in these phone the music files don't have the same luck. It might be that this feature be added in the future, though it is probably considered that the music player is designed for individual music tracksrather than very long recordings, unlike video files where whole films are offered. Perhaps if enough people demand it...

There is no sound when playing purchased music from iTunes

I have a 3rd generation 64GB IPOD touch. I am wondering how can I get it to play music again? I had my original iPod touch replaced with a refurbished one last year. It played my iTunes music at first but now it just will not play. I tried other music apps and the sound comes through. What can I try to do to get my iTunes music to play again on my IPOD? All suggestions are welcome.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

ITunes on Vista - crashing when I try to play purchased music

Crashes when I try to play purchased music that I've copied from another machine.
It has been authorized for two accounts, obviously ones that own the music, and playing songs brought from either account simply cause iTunes to crash, and it comes up with "iTunes has stopped working..."
Brand new vista install, and brand new iTunes install.
Any ideas?

I had the same problem. Trouble is Vista is a new operating system that went to market filled with problems, the main one being nothing was ready to be compatable with it. Apple support recommened upgrading iTunes to the latest version sine Vista will not recognise older versions. I upgrade every time one is offered. It stopped my Dell from crashing everytime I tried to use the iPod. Try it, it may work.

ITunes 7.5 won't let me play purchased music/TV shows

I am running Leopard 10.5.1. When I try to play purchased music or television shows the window for Authorizing in to iTunes pops up. So I put my password in, but another window pops up that says "There was an error storing your authorization information on this computer. The required directory was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions cannot be changed. So I try to authorize and deauthorize but there are errors.
I tried to go to my account and deauthorize all of my accounts, but there is nothing there to let me do that.
If someone can please help me with this I can stop pulling my hair out! Thanks

I have have the same issue playing purchased music, i tried de authorizing my my account, but it said invalid username and password, which im sure is false. I ran a permissions repair and here are the results, but i didn't think anything in here would be relevant:

ITunes 7.6 No Audio When Playing a Music Video or Movie

I just installed iTunes 7.6.0.29 (It was released today).
There is no audio when playing a music video or a movie that I've purchased. Movie trailers and music videos in the iTunes store have no audio either. Videos from iTunes University that I've downloaded (such as an MIT lecture) play fine w/ audio.
Music audio (such as tracks I've purchased or tracks on the iTunes store) play fine.
QuickTime videos, such as a QT video on my desktop play fine. Windows Media Player works fine too.
So, why don't music videos and movies play (w/audio) on iTunes 7.6??

I'm experiencing what appears to be the exact same issue. I just installed iTunes 7.6.
Video but no audio:
Purchased iTunes TV episodes
Streamed video trailers in the iTunes Store
Works fine:
All music files, including protected files purchased through iTunes
The standalone Quicktime player performs normally with MOV files. Windows Media Player still performs normally.
I found an old support doc complaining of a similar issue with a previous iTunes release and tried the suggested fix: Uninstalling Quicktime and reinstalling it using the standalone installer (Quicktime 7.4). I also reinstalled iTunes. Neither solved the issue.
I'm very disappointed that I can no longer access the files I've purchased. I hope this is fixed very soon.

I Pod does not play purchased music.

My i Pod will not play purchased music. It will scroll songs until it gets to one not purchased from i Tunes. What steps can be taken to resolve this situation?

In iTunes go to the Store menu at the top and Deauthorize your computer. Now play one of the purchased songs on your computer and when prompted enter your Apple ID and password. Resync the songs to your iPod.

Unable to play purchased music after successfully authorize computer

Cannot play purchased music:
Prompted for id and password (Authorize Computer).
Next prompt notifies me that the "Machine Authorization was Successful".
Does nothing.
Double click on song again - repeat Authorize Computer.

Also having exactly the same problem.
I've followed the same steps with the same results.
Even check for the number of authorized computer : only one.
Tried to remove authorization and give it again : no change.
Still unable to listen to the tracks bought on the iTunes Store. It was possible the day I bought them and they have been transferred to the iPod through iTunes.
I have listened to those tracks on my iPod for a few days.
But when reconnecting today (first time since the date of purchase), I cannot listen to those purchased tracks anymore and they seem to have been removed from my iPod by iTunes !!!
This was my first purchase on iTunes Store and it's a very bad experience. Unable to listen to music I've bought !
Could someone give us all an issue, please ?!

We have 4 iphones and an Ipad in our family. When we purchase music, I would like for the entire family to be able to use it and then back it up to Icloud. What is the best and cheapest way for this to happen. Should we all have a different apple id or should we use the same one.

You will all need to be on the same itunes account ID.
You can however all have seperate icloud accounts aswel.

When I purchase music through iTunes from my MacBook Pro, my iPhone 4 iTunes app cannot detect those purchase to allow them to download to my phone. If I open up the iTunes app and select "purchased > music > not on this iphone" it tells me "All of your available music has been downloaded to this device." However, my purchases are not yet downloaded to the iphone and not available to download. If I go to "purchased > music > all > recent purchases" it will show me the purchases that were most recent the last time I synced my phone, but not the purchases since then.
Any thoughts on how I can remedy this and make all of my purchased music available on my phone without requiring syncing?

So I have been searching the iStore for Airplay and I find lots of information about what it is, but nothing about how much it costs, how/where to buy it, etc.?
Fortunately, AirPlay does not cost anything as it is a streaming protocol used by Apple. Currently, the AirPort Express and Apple TV are AirPlay-ready. A number of other companies, like JBL, iHome, Denon and Klipsch are also rumored to be working on AirPlay versions of their products.
Your other option would be to get an AirPort Express and connect it to your Onkyo analog or optical digital audio input and stream from iTunes that way. I currently do this with my 10+ year old Harmon Kardon HT receiver.

Check the music tab on the iPhones iTunes page, and make sure "sync all music" is checked. If you chose only to sync certain music, new music will not automatically show up.

"There was an error downloading your purchased music. The disk could no..."

I am trying to download a Video from the new iTunes 6 and I do have an iPod Video, but for some reason everytime I check for purchases to download it, I get this error message: "There was an error downloading your purchased music. The disk could not be read from or written to."
For some reason the Apple Team cannot seem to help me with this, does anyone have any idea what is going wrong? I have purchased the video about 1 1/2 ago and no one has helped me from Apple yet. Please let me know....Thanks so much!

I had this same issue today. I was able to download songs but not videos. It turned out that the machine that I was downloading on was my work machine and my music storage location was redirected to my company server. The path was
\\Rgafiles-2\bcross$\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music
I suspected that this redirection was an issue so I installed iTunes on another maching and was able to successfully download the song locally. I then copied the .m4v file to my original machine.
