How do I enable the automatic download of music books etc so that they stay enabled

I have just received my new ipad3 and tried to download a book sample, but I cannot seem to enable the automatic download. When I tap the screen the legend goes from off to on for about 5 seconds and then reverts to off. What am I doing wrong.

OK I have just found out how to do this from a previous question. Sign out and then back in and it all works as it should.

    Simply uncheck the same boxes you used to turn on Automatic downloads.

  • I accidentally set my Downloads to automatically open the files, and now it doesn't save them at all, except in my temporary files. How do I reset the Automatic Download setting?

    I remember back in Firefox 3.6 you could go into about:config and reset the automatic setting for downloads, but that particular option has either been renamed or isn't there anymore.

    Go to the Firefox/'''Tools''' menu, click on '''Options''' and go to the''' Applications''' panel where you can change the action for different content types, to "Save File" or "Always ask" instead of opening the file in a particular application or plugin. See [[Managing file types]].

  • After downloading 5.0.1 on my Phone I lost my music! Syncing doesn't help.Store on the phone misses the automatic download for music! What is the solution?

    After downloading 5.0.1 to my Phone, I lost my music on the
    phone. Syncing on different ways didn't help. On the phone , in STORE, misses in Automatic downloads: Music!
    Is that part of the problem?  Or is 5.0.1.not corrt?

    Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
    First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
    Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
    When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
    I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

  • Under settings and store the automatic downloads for music, apps and books buttons won't stay on my iPhone 4.

    When I try to turn on automatic downloads from the store on my iPhone 4 they turn and then turn off by itself as soon as I turn them on.

    This appears to be related to the same issue afflicting FaceTime logins on iPad. You must go to wifi settings>advanced and put 8.8.8.8 in the DNS section. Not only does this enable FaceTime login it allows automatic selection. Click auto "on". It may reset to "off". Click again and it should stick on

  • How can I set the movies I have put into itunes so that they do not sync each time I try to sync new music purchaes?

    I can uncheck tv shows and when I sync music or app purchase the tv shows do not sync unless they are marked us unwatched.  I have put digital copies of some blu-rays into itunes and I cannot get them to be in itunes without syncing when sync new purchases.  How can I keep the movies in itunes for storage but keep them from going to the device and taking up memory when I am not needing them?

    Just untick Sync Movies or change the drop down below to selected movies.

  • How do I download photos to my PC so that they stay vertical or can be rotated to vertical?

    I have downloaded photos from my iPhone to my PC, but many are rotated 90 or 180 degrees.  I have downloaded the photos using more than one method, but always with the same result.  On my PC I am able to rotate the photos that downloaded with the correct orientation, but the ones that need to be rotated to be viewed properly cannot be rotated.  I get the message "you cannot rotate this image. The file might be in use or open in another program, or the file might be read only."
    How can I get these iPhone camera shots to download properly to my PC.  I have restarted my PC so that the Pictures folder is the only active program, but I still get the same message for the pictures I took which downloaded with the incorrect orientation?
    Thank you for your help!

    Upgrading to Yosemite likely had nothing to do with it. It's probably an IMAP email account, so simply delete the Yahoo account from your phone and add it back following these instructions: Add an email account on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support. That should clear it up.

  • HT201077 I have Photo Stream enabled with Automatic downloads enabled. Yet when I try to join a Photo stream I get referred to The I Cloud start support page - this happens for both my Mac and my IPad. What can I do?

    I have Photo Stream enabled with Automatic downloads enabled. Yet when I try to join a Photo stream I get referred to The I Cloud start support page - this happens for both my Mac and my IPad. What can I do?

    The following is from this Apple Document: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    What do I need to use Photo Stream?
    To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later
    Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
    PC with Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.1 or later
    You can still use Photo Stream without Shared Photo Streams if your devices meet these requirements:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
    PC with Windows 7 or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel v2.0 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.0 or later
    For complete iCloud setup instructions, visit How to set up iCloud.
    You need Mt. Lion in order to use Shared Photo Streams.

  • How can I disable the automatic hiding of known file attachments, and why are always about 10 internet pages where I have to download something if i use firefo

    How can I disable the automatic hiding of known file attachments, and why are always about 10 internet pages where I have to download something when I use mozila firefox?
    Windows Computer

    1) If you are talking about the file names on the computer, there is a
    setting to turn off known file types. Open your file browser. Then
    just under the location bar, press '''Tools,''' then '''Folder Options.'''
    A new window will open. Select '''View.''' Look for
    '''Hide Extensions For Known File Types.'''
    2) Never NEVER '''NEVER''' download anything unless you know what
    it is. If a web site claims it needs to download something, what is it?
    It could be something like the flash player, '''or a virus ! !'''
    Ask questions, or go somewhere else.

    Why does iTunes keep wanting to download the same item over and over again? How do I stop this without turning off the automatic download function.

    You may click on the "+" button to the right of the first multiple choice box to add more in the same line. When you hover over the button, the tooltip says "insert item beside".

    Hi michael emerald,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you would like to download your purchased content directly to your iPad and not have to go through iTunes to sync it. You can download individual purchases directly from the iPad using the Purchased section. Please use the attached article as a reference. 
    Download past purchases - Apple Support
    Have a great day,
