HT1420 I want to authorize my PC to download my purchased items to my IPAD from itunes. The instructions are NOT clear.

I need to authorize my PC to download my purchased items to my IPAD. The instructions are not clear (to me anyway). Open itunes where (PC or IPAD), I do not see an option to "authorize computer" or maybe in this case and "advanced button". Frustrated and confused buy this

Only computers nees authorising for your account, iPads (and iPhones and iPods) don't need authorising. On your computer's iTunes you should be able to authorise it via the Store menu at the top of iTunes - with iTunes 11 on a PC pressing Alt-S should get the Store menu to appear
e.g. (screenshot is from a Mac, but it should be similar on a PC)

I purchased a song from iTunes however it will not play. I get a message telling me I need to authorize my PC, when I go through the steps as directed I get a message saying this PC is already authorized however the song still will not play. Any help?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, 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 playing 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.

I must authorize my computer before download previous purchase? what should i do next?

I just download Itunes in a "new Computer" but each song only plays for 1.30 minutes , so I understand that I have to place it i nthe cloud , when I try I git this winodw that says: you must authorize this computer before download previous purchases. Doesnt show me what do I have to do next

You can authorise your account via the Store drop-down menu at the top of iTunes (if you are using iTunes 11 on a PC then control-B should get the menus to show)
e.g.
You can't put songs into the cloud yourself unless you subscribe to iTunes Match and upload them from your computer's iTunes to it. If you want to redownload your iTunes purchased music then you might be able to via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (redownloading music isn't possible in all countries) :
Or you can copy your library from your old computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Or from your backup (File > Add To Library)

HT203167 Hi, I've purchased a few films from itunes (and they are listed as Purchased in my account), but I can't find them on my computer or on my itunes account, and itunes wants me to pay for them again. How do I get around this?

Hi, I've purchased a few films from itunes (and they are listed as Purchased in my account), but I can't find them on my computer or my itunes account, and itunes wants me to pay for them again. How do I get around this? I've tried all the suggestions, and it's hugely frustrating.

If you are in the UK, and the film studio allows re-downloading, and you are signed in with the same account that you bought them with, then they might show under the Purchased link under Quinklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page for re-downloading - if they don't show then check to see if they are hidden (hiding and unhiding).
But you should be keeping and maintaining your own backup of your downloads and noy rely on being able to re-download any item as they are occasionally removed from the store by the content provider (film studio, tv company, record company etc).

Just bought macbook pro and want to download purchases I have already made from itunes apps but when it says downloaded can't find it. I have run a search and found it in my mac but unable to open or do anything??

Not sure if that same Application is designed for Mac Os x, Search for Applications on App Store instead of iTunes on your Macbook Pro, as Applications available on iTunes Store on a Macbook is designed to work only on iOS Device like iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch and whatever is available on App Store on Mac is designed for Mac Os x.

When I connect my iPod touch to my computer, I have a list of Events on my iTunes/iPod/Photos. I want to erase these Events. However, the photos are NOT on my MacBook Air. When I check one of the Events and then hit Apply, the photos appear on my iPod.

And one last thing: When I connect the iPod and open iPhoto, iPhoto tries to load New Photos (I think), but nothing happens. Any ideas?

Resolved.

I want to change my Apple ID to what I have as my rescue ID. The system will not let me.Is there a way to do this?

You'll need to change/remove your rescue email address first :
   1.    Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
    2.    Click "Manage your account"
    3.    When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
    4.    Click Password & Security
    5.    You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
    6.    After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
    7.    Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field.

All you have to do is sign in to the apple store inside iTunes. If is doesn't show up automatically go to the Store menu > Authorize This Computer... You will have access to all of your purchases.

I have a new computer and my old drive has my UNSAVED bookmarks on it and I want to import them, how do I do it when the bookmarks are not SAVED?

You can backup the bookmarks on the old computer and create a JSON or HTML backup and restore or import this file in the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks).
You can use an USB stick to transfer the saved bookmarks file to the new computer.<br />
You can also copy the places.sqlite file from that computer to have the bookmarks and the history.

HT204266 I just bought a 2nd ipad and wanted to download books purchased with my first ipad. Can I "sinc" them somehow so I don't get charged twice?

I just bought a 2nd ipad and want to download books purchased with my first ipad without being "double charged". Is there a way to do this?

If you are syncing with a computer and transferring your purchases there you can sync the 2nd iPad with the computer and transfer all of them (quickest method). If you are using the same Apple ID on the 2nd iPad you can download them again without being charged.

I want to sync my ipad to my mac comp. It says to select ipad from under the device list. I do not get a device list however on my screen

I want to sync my ipad with my mac computer so I can import the data as a backup. It says to select ipad from under the device coliumn, but I do not have that column showing. What should I do?

The Devices Headings is on the left gray sidebar of iTunes when iTunes is running on the computer and the iPad is connected. I am using a very old version of iTunes but the sidebar is still the sidebar.
Here is a screenshot of the iTunes sidebar. I am at work and can't connect my iPad here but the Devices heading will be on the left side - under where it shows the Library, Store, Shared, etc.
If you don't see the iPad listed there - it is not being recognized in iTunes. Maybe you should look through this for help if the device is not recognized.
