HT201272 Trouble downloading purchased songs

I have a lot of songs that didn't download successfully-so I cannot play them, but when I try to re-download them from the itunes store- it says "downloaded"- help?

Welcome to the Apple community.
Before you can re-download the content, you will need to delete the corrupt files from your iTunes library. (Don't forget to delete the original files when prompted)

  • Can't download purchased song

    I purchased one single song and get an error msg -3259 saying it can't download, the network connection timed out. I've tried upgrading my Itunes, restarting my Itunes, and have checked my internet connection making sure it is active at the time of download. The Apple help e-mailed me and said it might have something to do with my McAfee program but my subscription has ended. I have never had trouble downloading a song for this long (been trying for 4 days).

  • Won't let me download purchased songs (error 8517), Won't let me download purchased songs (error 8517)

    There's about 25 or so songs that I have purchased but can't download. Whenever I click on Downloads, It says there are 25 songs available for download, I click to download them and they all come up with an error. Someone suggested I go to Store --> Account --> and then click download purchased songs from there, if I do that in the library it seems to act like they're all about to download but none of them do. Anyone please help?

  • Error message when trying to download purchased songs

    I purchased some albums on my ipad that synced to my iphone. I'm now trying to download my purchases to my library stored on my PC, but I'm getting an error/warning message along the lines of:
    "You can download past purchases for up to 90 days.....You cannot assign another apple id to this computer for the next 30 days".
    Does anyone have any ideas? I did have to sign my wife out of itunes before i signed in to download my songs so i assuming its something to do with that.

    When trying to download purchased songs on ITunes, it
    gives an error message that the network connection
    timed out. also gives this error message when I try
    to download ITunes software. Can anyone help with
    this error? Thanks
    I am having the same problem. (err = -3259) and it's not listed in any of the error codes in Apple Support. Weird. Why have an error code and no reference for it.
    First it happened when I tried to download a movie and I kept "checking for purchases" - didn't work - checked all my ad filters, privacy filters, firewall settings - didn't work. Then I forgot for a day, went back and it worked. Now I have three episodes of a TV show that will not download and I am getting the same error message. This time it has been a few days though...Someone who knows - Please HELP!!

    a lot of the songs that I have downloaded now seem to be corrupt on my ipad and I want to back them up to my computer. 

    Do you mean "authorize"?

  • I only have one iTunes account.  The other day I made the mistake of downloading purchased songs and movies logged on another user account (Administrator) on the same computer.  How do I consolidate all my purchases in my preferred user account?

    I only have one iTunes account.  The other day I made the mistake of downloading purchased songs and movies logged on another user account (Administrator) on the same computer.  How do I consolidate all my purchases in my preferred user account?

    copy the songs that you downloaded as admin and put it somewhere you can access it from you're preferred account (usb stick / cd / shared folder / external hard drive) log into with you preferred user account and drag and drop the files on top of the itunes icon and they will be imported.
    if you have a second computer you could use home sharing to move the music from admin itunes to the second computer and from the second computer to the preferred itununes
    ps you can only connect 5 computers to you're itunes account so don't forget to de-autorise when you no-longer wand it.

  • Hi there, how do I re-download purchased songs in iTunes?

    Hi there,
    How do I re-download purchased songs in iTunes?  I have recently copied a large number of songs in to my iTunes folder and my purhcased songs have disappeared in the process. I am trying to play them but it is just asking me to locate them.  They can no longer be found on the machine but are purchases form the apple store.
    Thanks

  • My itunes comes up with this when i try to download purchased songs: this devise is already associated with an apple id. this devise can be used with another apple id in 82 days. i need help to see if i can fix this problem please.

    i have an iphone 4s i signed out of my itunes on the devise and my friend signed herself into ituned but i signed her out an myself back in but my purchased songs and tones cannot download. it gives me a message of:this device is already associated with an apple id. this device can be used with another apple id in 82 days! is there anyway for me to fix this or override something. im freaking out!!

    Sorry: once a device has been authorised for a particular iTunes account you can't change it to another until 90 days have passed. This is to prevent people cirumventing the restrictions of purchases to one account from consteantly swopping between accounts. You will have to wait for the 82 remaining days, and there is no workaround.

  • Why can't I download purchased songs on new computer?

    Okay so I'm having a slight issue. I just got a new MacBook Pro and I'm having issues. I am attempting to download my purchased songs. I am in iTunes and when I attempt to download it prompts me to enter my password. Upon doing this it starts to download then gives me an error message followed by prompting me once again to enter my password. I know this is not a wrong password for sure haha I've double and triple checked. I have tried restarting iTunes my computer an other restart based fixes. Just really unsure what is happening.

    Contact iTunes Support -> http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.
    As I'm not sure why that would be happening...

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    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 (or video 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.
