you don't. you could try upgrading to iTunes plus.
meanwhile, try logging out of your iTunes account, then logging back in.
also, try deauthorizing your computer, the re-authorize it.

    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 items that are not downloading properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • New computer...help with transfering songs!

    I recently got a new computer, and before I realized how to transfer the music from one computer to the new one, my dad completely erased the old one. Now I have a new computer with no songs and an iPod with all my songs, and I just realized that in order to transfer the songs, i had to do something about the iTunes folder, or something like that. It's too late to do that, but is there any other way I can transer the songs to my new computer?
    Thanks for any help!

    It would have been best to de-authorize your old computer prior to moving your iTunes library as seen HERE
    However, their are programs available that will allow you to transfer your music FROM your iPod to your new computer and can be found at sights such as www.versiontracker.com. (Keyword iPod or iTunes)
    You may, however, experience a problem playing all of your music (assuming all of your music is purchased due to DRM.

  • I have the original CDs with protected songs, how do i import?

    I was trying to import from a store-bought CD. All of my other CDs work and import correctly. This one CD gives me this error message when I attempt to import:
    "One or more of the songs being added are in the protected WMA format, including the song “Track01.wma”, and could not be converted. iTunes can only convert unprotected WMA songs. If you have the original CDs for these songs, you can import them using iTunes."
    So my question is...If I have the original CD for these songs, how do import using iTunes? Is there a link or something in the music store?
    thanks.

    With a protected CD, you have to first Import/rip it to the PC using Windows Media player (WMP). Sometimes you have to use the software that comes on the CD, but in this case Im sure you will use Windows Media player if iTunes is detecting the songs as in WMA format.
    Once ripped onto the PC with WMP, you will use that program to burn it to CD. Now open iTUnes and set your prefered import settings by going to Edit>preferences>Advanced tab>import sub tab.
    Dont set it to WAV as these files are way too big. PIck either one of the AAC settings or MP3. Personally I prefer MP3 as any device you use is likly to support MP3 before supporting AAC.
    Put the burned CD in the drive and when it shows up in iTUnes, you will manually enter in all the info like artist, album and the likes. RIghtclick the CD name in the source list (Where all your playlist and things are) and hit "Get Info". Here you will enter in the artist and album for all the tracks. After that you will rightclick each track and hit get info to enter in each tracks song name.
    After all that is entered, hit the import button and iTunes will import all songs on the CD with the proper names and info

  • Help with syncing songs to Mac from iPod (unknown type and generation)

    My brother got an iPod for Christmas, and my mom had downloaded songs from our aunt's computer. It works just fine, and he can charge it, but we want to put it on my mom's Mac. However, when I tried to transfer purchases from iPod, it said that 100 songs couldn't be transferred and none of the songs showed up on the playlist. My sister's birthday party is today, and we're going to play music with an iPod but I think it would be easiest to do it with just one iPod, and then my iPod could have his songs as well. Please help me! Thank you!

    Do you mean that when you disconnect they dont show up?

  • Help with protecting cont

    I have the zen m 30g mp3 player and I cannot protect any video files. I have tried creating a new folder under video's and then pressing the options button. but the only options I get are, delete folder, settings and volume. Is there a firmware update that helps this, or is there something else I am missing?

    first of all my zen doesn't have that option, I don't know how to get that option.
    and secondly to darkdallasnight, your assumption on what I am trying to password is completly wrong. I am a magician, I am also a devote christian. So while I do appreciate your efforts in trying to help me, If I was you I would stay away from trying your Phsycic abilities, because they do need a bit more refining.

  • Help with downloading songs?

    I have an old ipod and a newish computer. I downloaded itunes, and I want to download the songs from the ipod onto the account. Some of the songs on the ipod were not bought from the itunes store. They are from old cds that I don't have anymore, so I can't take the chance of losingthem. I see a sync button, but it just wants me to take the songs off the ipod and sync what is on the computer onto the ipod. How do I put what is on the ipod onto the computer? Thank you!!!

  • Help with ipod songs in itunes

    i wan to know hoy can i tranfer some songs from my ipod to my library in itunes because those songs are only in my ipod, i heard that you need another program to do that i wonder if it is true

    You can't sync or drag your music back directly from an iPod to iTunes, the transfer of music is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs but not playlists back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward.
