How can I get my itunes purchases to play on any mp3 player?

I can't get my itunes purchases to play on my other mp3 players.  I don't want to download these programs people suggest on the internet.
And really, I shouldn't have to. If I've already paid for the music, why can't I put it on the device I choose?  There must be a way. Any help? BTW, I'm using Windows Vista, (yuk)

You can put the music on any device you choose, as long as the device can play the format. Purchases from the iTunes Store are in industry-standard AAC format. If you want to use them on a player that can only handle MP3, you need to convert the tracks. See:

  • HT4527 How can I get my itunes music to play the entire song?

    After My hard drive crashed and burned it was replaced with a new Hard drive.  I restored my itunes folder from my external back up drive. when I go into itunes all of my music appears and most of it plays. However, my older purchases  will only play a few bars of music and then it skips to the next song.  There are no error messages or "!" to indicate what is happening.  I've deauthorized both of my computers and reauthorized the one with the new drive, but no improvement.  How can I fix this?

  • Itunes karaoke: how can I get my itunes karaoke to play on Magic Sing ET19KV?

    I have an EnterTech Magic Sing ET19KV karaoke system and I'd love to buy some new songs for it, but just certain songs I want not a whole song chip with just a few songs I like out of 1000.  Does anyone know how to get itunes karaoke songs to work on the machine? I downloaded the songs and put them on the memory card but it can't find them. it will play jpeg off the memory card (and supposedly straight MP3) but is there a way to get it to play karaoke songs? do I have to change the format to something else? or is there a way to load songs onto a blank song chip?

    HK Connor,
    The tracks labeled "karaoke" in the iTunes Store are only instrumental backing tracks in AAC format.  They are not actual karaoke tracks.  They do not have lyrics, and cannot be burned to the usual CD+G format that a karaoke machine will accept.
    If you want actual karaoke tracks,  go to a specialty online download store such as www.buykaraokedownloads.com .

    Delete the broken links in iTunes then look at your purchased list to redownload.
    If this happened because you were deleting files from the iTunes folder in Finder, don't.  You have to let iTunes do all the deleting and moving or you will end up with broken links.

    You made a purchase and exhausted the credit on your card before it processed. All purchases are final. Contact iTunes Store support. You need to settle up before you can purchase or download anything else.

  • How can I get my non purchased song content from ipod touch 4 back to my itunes library. My library

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs over the last few days, I assume that there has been a problem with Apple's servers.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting those tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

  • How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • TS1424 How do I get unauthorized iTunes purchases removed from my bank account?

    How do I get unauthorized itunes purchases removed from my bank account?

    You can always dispute the charges with your bank, if possible. With Apple, they typically stand by the phrase that all sales are final. However, if you go to the iTunes Store, then click on your email address (Apple ID) in the black nav bar, and click on "Account"... you will see a "Purchase History" section. Here, select "See All." If the order is still processing, it will be at the top. If it has completed (at the bottom), click on the arrow next to the order number you want to inquire about.  A new order page will open. Here you can click "Report a Problem" then click "Report a problem" (again) next to the item you want to dispute. Here you can chose your problem. You should likely use the "Other" category. It will be up to the customer service person on whether they grant you an exception to their normal rule that you can't get refunds.
