HT201272 I downloaded an album, but some of the songs are only half there. How do I fix this?

Today I bought an album on itunes. But when I listened to it a handful of the songs weren't all there. it would play to a certain point then skip to the next song.

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
If you don't see them straight away it may help to close and restart iTunes.
While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

TS1424 I have purchased and downloaded an album, but some of the songs did not download correctly as the songs are not complete. How do I redownload them without purchasing the album again.

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the track and try redownloading fresh copies.
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.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

I downloaded an album but some of the songs won't play - says my computer isn't authorized to play the song. I checked the authorization, and this computer is authorized. How do I fix this?

If just some of the tracks on the album are doing that, that suggests those tracks are damaged.

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking some people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

How to report an issue with Your iTunes Store purchase

I downloaded an album but some of the songs downloaded only half way. How do I fix that problem

I bought an album yesterday and when I went to play it today I found that some of the tracks were only playing half way and the other half was blank. How do I fix that?

TS1424 I downloaded an album, but most of the songs are incomplete. The itunes list shows the appropriate song length, but the actual songs are not completely downloaded - meaning it does not give me the option of finishing the download.

I purchased a complete album, but most songs are only about a minute in duration rather than their actual lengths. The times showing indicate the full song was downloaded, but in reality, its like listening to a sample. I want to get entire songs, but the itunes list shows it as downloaded, so it does not seem to give me the option to download again. I sure would like to get what I paid for. Any suggestions?

HT204406 I have downloaded soe albums but some of the songs do not play. Help!

I downloaded 5 albums on my iPhone which work fine. When I downloaded them onto my PC, several of the tracls across all of the albums don't appera to have downloaded correctly. The file size is correct but there is no sound. Also when I try to create an mp3 version to play in the car, I get the failure message: Error occured while converting the file "track name". An Unknown error occured (-3).
I've tried the apple help but its terrible and absolutely useless! And there isn't a **** email where I can ask for some support!
Please help.

Delete the tracks from the iTunes library, allowing iTunes to move the track files to the Trash. Then download the tracks again from the iTunes Store via this procedure:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
That fixes the problem for many people. If problems with the tracks persist, go here:
iTunes Support
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
Regards.

TS1424 downloaded an album and some of the songs are skipped. They are in the list but, it skips over the song

I downloaded my photos from my Hp laptop, but all of the photos are in negative format - how do I fix this?

Do I have to remove all photos from my ipad now and try to download again? Can I not change the view from negative to normal on the ipad? Can I delete photos on the ipad? Why did this happen? Do I need a photo app on the ipad?

Can you see other pictures like wallpaper in normal mode?
Did you check the format of the photos you synced through iTunes?
iOS and iPod: Syncing photos via iTunes
On a Mac, these file formats will sync from your iPhoto Library to your device: JPG, JPEG, TIFF, PICT, GIF, PNG, JPG2000 or JP2, PSD, SGI, and BMP.

I have just purchased a compilation album but some of the songs haven't downloaded, even though I have paid for them. Why is this and when will i get the songs that I have paid for?

Hi there cortleavis90,
You may be able to download the purchases from the Past Purchases section of the iTunes Store. Take a look at the article below for more information.
