HT1368 Why can't I add just one **** song to my wishlist?  Why itunes trying to be greedy and make me buy the whole album.  I don't think so - amazon here I come!

Want to add just one song to my wishlist not the whole album - please help.  Without using iTunes Radio - using the iTunes Store

On an iOS device you can only add the whole album, if you only want to add individual songs then you will need to use your computer's iTunes.

  • Why can't I send just one song off of an album as a gift?

    Why can't I send just one song off of an album as a gift?
    iPad 2, iOS 7.0.4

    You'll need to use iTunes on your computer to be able to send a single track. From an iOS device you can only gift entire albums.

  • Why can't I select just one album under artist view and listen to it from beginning to end anymore? Why would you change that?

    Why can't I go under artist view in music app, select 1 of multiple albums by a specific artist and play the whole album from beginning to end? Why would you have it automatically shuffle between songs from several albums by the same artist automatically? How do we change this back to previous function because this is sucking big time for a music lover.

    I agree this is a really dumb change and I really hope Apple changes it back to the way it was.
    In iOS 6 and earlier when you were in the Music player and selected ARTIST it would show a list sorted by artist. When you selected the artist you wanted, it would show a list of their albums.  Then you could select the album and see the list of songs.  In iOS 7 after you select Artist, it displays the album and every track, so you have to scroll down through not only the album but every track on that album.   That was a really stupid change on Apple's part.  Makes no sense.
    Here is the list of albums under iOS 6.x...
    and here is what is looks like under iOS 7.0
    In iOS 7.0 you have to scroll down through all the songs to see the other albums.  That can be a really pain if you have a large music collection.
    Please Apple change it back to the way it was!!  This didn't need to change!

  • Why can't you deauthorize just one computer?

    Why is the only choice in the store to deauthorize ALL computers with an appleid/iTunes store account?  My husband took my old mac book pro and removed all my info on it, but did not deauthorize the iTunes account first.  Now, my phone won't sync with my new computer because we're up to our limit on devices with that iTunes account (try having one account since day 1 of iTunes, and now multiple computers and devices.
    Isn't there some way to tell iTunes to stop associating that mac book pro with my phone (which is what it seems to be doing)?
    And word to the wise -- do not let anyone use an old computer until you've deauthorized it.  Once they start ripping out your data to put theirs in you really are totally (******) if they do it wrong.

    The only thing that makes me nervous about that is this -- we had an iTunes account forever, and when the Cloud went live, they made us change the login and update our account information.  Our original login id still syncs anything associated with it for updates (apps), even though we now use the new id for purchases.  It's rather beautiful that it works like that -- asking for one login to update apps prior to the Cloud, seeming to know that it goes with those ... however, I shudder to think if we tried to reauthorize to that original id if the iTunes store would recognize it as a valid id, which could jeopardize all the original music and app purchases (years and years and years of legally purchased content).
    We're going to have to try something else.

  • Why can't I open just one of my numbers files?

    Hello,
    I am unable to open a rather important numbers file on my macbook pro. I can open all other numbers files but when I double click this one, it sort of "shines" as if its going to open then nothing happens. The data in it is really important and I can't get to it. I also have set up my time machine (as I don't know how) and wondered if anyone has any suggestions?
    Many Thanks

    If you meant that you have not set up your time machine, the following may help with that: Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support
    Regarding the Numbers file -- this is a long shot, but rather than double-clicking on it you might try first starting Numbers and then use its File menu Open command and see if that will open the file.

  • In 4.0.1, if I have multiple firefox windows open, when I try to close one window, it closes all. Why can't I close just one window at a time?

    I open multiple Firefox windows so that I can quickly Alt+Tab between windows instead of using my mouse to point to tabs. When I close one of my Firefox windows, the browser closes all my windows. What happen to the "Close" feature under the File tab? Why don't I have the option to close only one window at a time?

    I don't understand what happened above, but ericn1, wasn't your problem that you tried to close one browser window using the red X, and ALL of them closed? How did any of the above help you solve your problem? jscher2000 gave you alternate methods of closing windows but said that closing a window with the red X "should" work. It doesn't work, because it is closing ALL your windows, not just the one you are clicking on. I am now having the same problem. with Firefox.
    Understand I do not have the problem with any other program. In other words, I can open multiple windows in Paint Shop Pro, IE, Notepad, etc. and close one with the red X and all others remain open. It ONLY happens when using the Firefox browser.
    The red X should close only the window that you are in when you click on it.
    NOW, before someone suggests tabs, I don't like them and don't use them. My choice. Before someone says my browser is out-of-date, (3.6.13) I am using it because it was the last version that worked reliably on my computers, both at home (Windows 7 Professional) and my office (Windows XP Professional).
    When I updated to the last Firefox browser, both computers started seizing up (nothing worked and had to reboot using power button) Removing that version of Firefox and going back to this version solved that problem. Fact remains, version has little to do with this problem. I've seen other posts around the net about this with different (newer) versions of Firefox.
    So . . . does anyone have a solution to this that doesn't involve using keystrokes or hot keys to close windows instead of the red X that should work properly?

  • Why can't I add audio to my slide show from my itunes in elements 11?

    I am trying to make a slide show using my newly purchased photoshop elements 11 and I cannot get it to add any audio. It does not recognize any of my files. I know there must be a way to do this but cannot figure it out.

    Not copy protection unless these are very old purchases that you never updated. First try eliminating the album artwork, which often solves this.

    Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value).  You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
    In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
    Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
    Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
    Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
    The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these).  Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
    In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above.  As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

  • When I try to burn music from my Playlist to a blank CD, the notification tells me that the list has too many minutes for the CD, even if I try to burn just one song. What's going on?

    WHEN I TRY TO BURN MUSIC FROM MY PLAYLIST TO A BLANK CD, THE NOTIFICATION COMES UP AND TELLS ME I AM EXCEEDING THE NUMBER OF MINUTES THE CD WILL HOLD. THIS NOTIFICATION HAPPENS EVEN IF I TRY TO BURN JUST ONE SONG. WHAT'S GOING ON?

    Katy, you are completely doing things in the wrong order.  You can't burn songs if you can't even play them, and iTunes can't play them if it can't find them. 
    The exclamation point normally occurs if the song file, or one of its containing folders, has been moved, renamed or deleted.  So if you encounter a track with an exclamation point, don't do anything else until you find the file.  It is usually somewhere else on your hard drive, or else in the Recycle bin.  Failing both of those, get it from your most recent backup.
    After your restore it, make sure it can play.  If it can play you can put it into a playlist.  Then you can burn the playlist.

  • HT1849 a single album I already bought can work with the whole album using 'Complete my album'?

    I already bought a single album of MUSE (Survival - Single)
    and I wanted to buy the whole album of MUSE (The 2nd Law)
    then I realized that I could buy other songs except for 'Survival' for $10.7 using 'Complete My Album' (Original price is $11.9)
    so I bought 'The 2nd Law' album for $10.7. but there isn't 'Survival' on the 'The 2nd Law' album playlist.
    single album and whole album are seperated on the playlist. how I get the whole album playlist??
    Do I have to buy 'Survival' in the whole album's list to make perfect 'The 2nd Law' album playlist??
    plase help me.

    I have this exact same question / issue too and it is definitely something I would LOVE to see Apple fix ASAP.  It is especially important to me because so many popular artists release Singles (as Single Albums) weeks or even months in advance of their full album coming out.  When I have the choice, I ALWAYS prefer to buy a single song from the album it is on (in case I like the song a lot and want to check out more from that artist) - however, this is often not possible due to the "Single Album" phenomenon.  Sidenote: could you just freakin' get rid of Single Albums altogether (when there is an associated real album)?  They clutter up the See All Albums view horribly - at least give us a filter or something for the real-deal studio albums vs all the junk.
    While it is great that I get "credit" for my purchase from the Single Album towards the real Album (thanks for that Apple), I personally have a strong preference to then see the original single as part of the album instead of as a stand-alone.  It's just cleaner organization-wise, easier from a usability standpoint (you can actually listen to the whole album you bought using the album filter!), etc.  It would at least be nice to have the choice to "convert" the original single to the Album version, if Apple is concerned about forcing the change (I personally would be happy with a forced change, but if given a choice would always convert).
    Please fix this!!!
    My example:
    -Bought Calvin Harris, "Feel So Close (Radio Edit)" back in March '12 (I think it was released in August '11) for $1.29
    -Completed My Album by buying "18 Months" album for $8.70 recently (released Oct 30, 2012)
    -Was happy to pay $8.70 instead of $9.99 (got full credit for the $1.29 I spent on the single) - good job Apple
    -Am now frustrated that "Feel So Close (Radio Edit)" has different Album info, different Album cover art etc - BAD job Apple
    Would love to hear that this is going to be addressed soon - hopefully with a retroactive converter tool too??
    PS  I realize I could manually adjust the metadata for the track to make it match, but I HATE the idea of doing that.  Very clunky solve and I personally would be worried that I missed something or didn't "fully" change everything, the underlying file is not exactly what I would have gotten from the full album version, etc.

  • Why can't I add TV shows to ipod without wiping every thing else out?

    I'm a newby so forgive me. But I've already lost all the apps I purchased for my ipod because I wanted to update my music library (transferring from macbook pro itunes to my ipod touch). It said to do so would wipe out all my apps. I said yes thinking I could go back and add the apps later—because I still "see" them in itunes. But when I tried to select and transfer the apps they're all grayed out! I can't find a way to select and reinstall them. Same with tv shows purchased on itunes: I want to put them on my ipod but it says to do so will wipe out my entire music library. At least it gives me an option to select those unlike the apps. How frustrating! It seems I can't add one thing without entirely wiping out another.

    Yes. Same computer. Yes. The computer is authorized. I am able to move my music to the iPod so assume it's signed in to the account. The iPod actually came with the Computer. It has never been synced to other computer. Am I just doing something wrong? Why can't it update my music library without copying over my apps? Why can't it add the tv shows i bought without erasing all my music in the process. And finally, I see ghosts of the apps I used to have installed on my iPod in iTunes but iTunes won't let me selected them to move them back to the iPod.

  • How can I get my iPad to play just one song from my playlist and then stop automatically?

    I am a music teacher and I use the iPod on my iPad to play songs in class.  I have a long playlist of songs to choose from in each class, and I want to play just one song at a time.  I want to be able to start one song from my playlist and then walk away from my iPad and have it stop automatically when that song is over.  (I know how to make it repeat the same song over and over, but tha'ts not what I need.  I also know how to push "pause," but I don't want to have to walk away from the children to do it.) How can I make it play one song from a playlist at a time?

    I don't believe that there is a way to do that except, perhaps, creating a separate Playlist for each song.
