How do I get a purchased song to play on my ipod shuffle remote from the docking station?

I can think of only one reason a song would be "converted" while it is being loaded on a shuffle.
Select the iPod in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES.  Over to the right, depending on iPod model, go to the Summary or Settings tab.  There should be a setting there that says Convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC (the 128 kbps part may be adjustable).  If that checkbox is checked, try unchecking it.
NOTE:  This setting may allow more songs to fit on the shuffle, but for any converted song, the sound quality will become inferior.  So I don't use it.

  • How do i get itunes purchased songs to play in my photostory slideshow?

    when i try to place an itunes song in photostory 3 it won't allow it because it's protected or mp4 instead of mp3 or something. How can I be able to use my songs in my slideshows?

    Sorry, but as you've discovered, tracks purchased from the iTunes Store, with the exception of the iTunes Plus tracks currently only available for EMI artists, cannot be used in other applications. All you can do with them is burn the tracks purchased from the iTunes Store out to an audio CD, at which point it will act just like any other normal audio CD.

  • How do you get iTunes purchased songs to automatically play one after the other

    How do you get iTunes purchased songs to play automatically one after the other without having to hit play for each song ? Also I lost all my pictures on my iPad when I installed iOS 7 upgrade. Any way to get them back? Thanks. Dr Ron.

    Hi Dr. Ron,
    By your question, I am wondering if you are playing your music from the iTunes app rather than the Music app?
    In the Music App, you can go to any of the options at the bottom and click on a song to play and it will then continue to play the songs in that category. You can also select "Shuffle" to shuffle them.
    As for your Photos, did you have them backed up anywhere?
    Cheers,

    It shows on iTunes SOME of my past purchases, but not all (looks like around 30-40% of purchases).    It shows on my apple id purchase history everything i have purchased; but in iTunes, some not all of these show up.    What does show up is kind of "greyed out", so NOTHING will actually play.   I have followed the steps in the iTunes support about how to redownload past purchases, but this dowsn't work, as the download button is also "greyed out". 
    I am extremly angry and upset about this issue.  Could someone please help / advise re how to fix????

    I'm hoping that this may be just a misunderstanding somewhere.
    Could you show an image showing these greyed out items?

    Maybe you have multiple accounts that's why your purchase history is empty. You can try checking for possible Apple IDs that's existing for you or you can ask for assistance from support.

    How do I get my itunes songs to play from my windows computer through the internet to my playstation PS3

    I'm not a windows person anymore but I've heard it said that you can point Windows Media Player at you iTunes library and you can set it up to serve up to the PS3.  Remember the the PS3 doesn't work with DRM encoded music.

  • I am recently switched from a pc to laptop and in the move I can't find my "purchased" songs in my library any more.How do I get my purchased songs back into my lnew laptop Itunes library?

    I recently switched from a pc to a laptop and am in process of moving my Itunes library to my laptop.I cant find my "purchased"songs .How do I recover my purchased songs and get them into my new laptop library? There is a record of my purchase in the Itunes store.

    "Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005?"
    They will only be where you put them  If you are doing the very basics, then they will be on your computer and they will be in your backup copy of your computer.
    The itunes store is not global at all, never has been. You cannot redownload your content from another country.  You can only use the countrys itunes store for the country that you are physically located.

  • How do I get my purchased songs back?

    My original problem was that iTunes wouldn't let me download my purchased songs. I had bought 2 songs that it said "couldn't be downloaded at this time" even though I could listn to the songs in the music app. No matter how many times I tried, those 2 songs wouldn't download. A few days later, I bought a few more songs. Those songs woulnd't download, they just kept saying "waiting". I think they were waiting for the original 2 songs to download first.
    I was also having trouble with some of my apps, and I thought that it might be because I hadn't turned my iPod off in a while. I turned my iPod off and then back on. After I did that, I checked iTunes again. It still said that the original 2 songs couldn't be downloaded, but all the songs I had purchased that were waiting had been wiped off the list. They were all by the same artist, so I went to the artist's page to see if I could just download them from there, but it was showing the $1.29 that you press before you buy it. I don't have enough money in my account to re-buy those songs, and I really don't want to have to re-buy them. Because they hadn't been downloaded yet, I hadn't received a receipt in my email for the songs either. Is there any way I can get these songs back without having to rebuy them?

    You can't get them back, if you deleted them.
    The iTMS offers a download once and you are warned (urged?) to make a backup once you downloaded them.
    You will have to buy them again, unless...
    If you explain to the iTMS what happened, maybe they will offer you a re-download.
    Use this http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/lostmusic/ form and maybe you're in luck.

  • How Can I Get My Purchased Songs Back?

    Recently, my hard drive crashed. I did a data recovery and swapped out the hard drive for a new. After reloading all programs etc onto the new hard drive, i found that most of my iTunes were either missing or damaged. Many of them were from CDs, but a handful were purchased from the iTunes store.
    Not only is my "purchased" folder not showing up, but I am missing a few of those songs. I thought all I would have to do is sign onto the iTunes store and they would appear, but it's apparently not that simple. How do I go about getting those files to show up in my library like they used to?

    Apple has a strict download once policy so you can not redownload you purchased music.
    It is often possible to recover files from a failed hard drive, but you might need professional help to do it.
    If you have your iTunes data it should be easy to get it onto the new drive. You would need to say exactly what you managed to save, you need the iTunes folder and the iTunes Music folder.
    If you have your Music on an iPod you can recover purchased music from it:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
    There are many third party apps that allow you to recover everything from an iPod.
    If none of these methods is available to you, the only hope is to explain the situation to Apple customer support and see if you can persuade them to make an exception and let you download again.
