how do i stop an item from downloading?

Hello Hockeygurl12
If you are having an issue with your purchase, you should be able to go to the iTunes Store app, tap on More and then Downloads. Then you should be able to swipe from right to left to delete it. Then you can try to download it again from the Music app. If you are still unable to download your track, the report the issue to the iTunes Store.

  • How do you stop a book from downloading in iBooks.  It has been downloading for 2 days

    How do I stop a book from downloading in iBooks   It has been downloading for 2 days

    Perform a "hard reset" on the device by pressing down and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button for up to 30secs. until you see a black screen with the Apple logo, then release.
    Then test to see if it solved the problem.

  • How do I stop my iPad from downloading songs from iTunes match?

    I wanted to download some songs onto my iPad from my iTunes Match library as I was going to be out for a few days. Three songs in, my router crashed through no fault of my own(someone was messing with the cable company connections without knowing what they were doing, apparently), and now I have 513 songs (most of which I did not choose to download but instead they got mistakenly added to a much smaller playlist...) downloading. I cannot feasibly go through my iTunes Match library and stop download of all 513 songs individually, and for some reason they are not downloading and not stalling out, probably because there are so many of them and my router is back online and so it is trying to download all at once and so slowing down to a standstill???
    How do I stop download of all those songs without hard-restarting my iPad?

    The iPad will use whatever the best service that is available - if you are in an area where 3G coverage is patchy (which may be due to reception or the network bandwidth being used up) then it will step down to Edge, and then possibly down to GPRS.

  • How do I stop my phone from downloading every email when updating software?

    Everytime I update, or have to restore my phone it decides to download all emails that I have deleted previously. How do I stop this from happening?

    If you network operator supports it, I suggest that you try to enable the automatic time update function in the phone.
    Menu > Organizer > Clock > Options > Settings > Automatic time update.
    See if that might solve the problem.
    If you still are having problems with this or if this is not supported by your network operator I think this will have to be checked at a repair center.
    In that case contact your local support team for more info.

  • How can i stop ios 6 from downloading

    Hello i started downloading ios 6 and my friend says it makes your ipod slow how can i stop it and keep it at 5.1.1

    You can try turing off wifi/place in airplane mode and resetting the iPod. Nothiong should be lost except hopefully you will have to manually restart the download which you do not do.
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • How do i stop my iphone from downloading music from the icloud when its on shuffle

    Due to the limited space on my iphone, i only keep certain songs on it at one time. But when i play all music on shuffle, My iPhone is downloading songs from itunes match that i dont want. I only want the phone to shuffle through the songs already on my phone. When im out on 3G, it doesn't do it as i have music over 3G disabled in the settings, but at home on wifi, there doesn't seem to be a way to stop this happening. The other issue this causes, is that those songs then dont want to be deleted because they are not fully downloaded. Its a pain

    In Settings > Music set "show all music" to OFF (not green).

  • How do I remove an item from downloading on iTunes Store on iphone5s?

    I recently purchased a song busy mistake. While it was downloading, it paused, and I figured I would not be charged. When I received an email from iTunes showing me my receipt, I realised I had been charged, but did not have the song in my playlist. So I went back on the iTunes Store and tried to complete the download, but it kept telling me there was an error and the download could not be complete. I contacted apple and they gave me a refund, but that song is sill in the download list, and I don't know how to delete it. The only thing to tap is the "tap to download" button, but I keep getting the error. How do I remove this song?

  • How can I stop my iPhone from downloading iOS 7?

    I am currently trying to download iOS 7 to my iPhone OTA. However, it seems to be stuck but rather than showing up that an error has occurred, it keeps trying to download. I would like it to stop trying but nothing works. I have tried switching it off and on again and hard reset but when I go back it keeps starting the download again. I'm aware that there are server issues so it may take a while but I would rather try getting it on my computer.
    If anyone can help me

    That seems a really obvious answer but I didn't think of it.
    Thanks!

  • How can I stop a movie from downloading? There is no place to cancel it. It's been trying to download for 3 days and my iPad says there is not enough storage .

    How can I cancel a movie that has been trying to download for. 3 days?  When I click on ITunes ,it says I don't have enough space. I tried to buy more and it went to the iCloud.  Does anyone know how to cancel that movie?

    I'm sure that you know by now but buying iCloud storage didn't do you any good. iCloud storage is for backups, and can't be used for local storage and that is where you needed the storage.
    Have you tried deleting content on the iPad so that the download will resume? Settings>General>Usage>Storage. You can delete movies, TV Shows, and apps in there via the Edit button. You can download most purchased content again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID. Delete it now, and download it again later when you need it. Bear in mind that whe. You delete apps, you delete the data in the apps as well.
    You might be able to pause the movie download by going to the Downloads tab in iTunes - tap on the movie icon and see if it will pause. Or try swiping across the progress bar to see if you can delete the download.

  • How do i stop an app from downloading on my mac pro?

    okay - so here goes. i went and opened the app store application on my mac pro. i saw the app for downloading Lion 10.7.3.  at present i have Lion 10.7.2. so i figured, well, i already purchased Lion, so this upgrade should be free - and i clicked install. it asked for my apple id and password. i entered it - and it began to download Lion 10.7.3.
    only then i saw the price tag on the side and thought to myself, "$&#%, what if i'm being charged for this?" so i went and did my "softward update" check. low and behold, waiting for me is 10.7.3.
    so here's where i'm at. i have 10.7.3. downloading as an app (potentially i'm PAYING for it!), and i have it "paused" right now.
    i want to simply install 10.7.3 as an update, which i KNOW IS FREE.
    but i can't seem to delete the download that's paused right now (which I might be PAYING for).
    so...any advice?
    thanks. ha! this is ridiculous.

    If you already purchased it with the same Apple ID, then you will not be re-charged.

  • How do I stop an app from waiting?  I have tried to reboot by holding the home key and power button to power down.  Also, I have tried to sync the apps from my laptop with no success.  Can you help?  Thanks.

    How do I stop an app from waiting?  I have tried to reboot by holding the home key and power button to power down.  The app is still grayed out and waiting so it cannot be deleted.  Also, I have tried to sync the apps from my laptop and tried downloading new appswith no success.  Can you help?  Thanks

    If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

    Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

  • How do i stop my programs from automatically popping up when i turn on the computer?

    how do i stop my programs from automatically popping up when i turn on the computer?

    When you log out or shut down, there will be a checkbox that asks you if you want to reopen windows when you log in. Just uncheck this box. If that isn't it, you may have login items turned on. Go to System Preferences>Users and Groups and then under your name click the Login Itens tab. Make sure nothing is there.
    If you want to stop windows from restoring when you open applications (so for example when you open Safari it doesn't open the 50 tab page you just had open when you quit) go to SystemPreferences>General and then hit the checkbox that says Close windows when quitting an application.
