HT3951 iTunes failed to download to iPad - no other device

I purchased an audio book - this has been paid for. But there was a problem with the download. I am not able to resume download as iTunes does not recognise a purchase has been made. There is no copy in iCloud. I have tried to go back to the book in iTunes but it says 'purchase' or preview. Advice would be helpful!

Audiobooks are currently a one-time only download, so if it didn't download successfully to the Music app, and it's not in the Downloads tab in the iTunes store app for resuming, then you will need to contact iTunes Support to get a re-download.
By 'no other device' do you mean that you haven't got a computer to do 'report a problem' from your purchase history ? If you have a computer : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account (Store > View My Apple ID on iTunes 11) 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 that audiobook 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 you don't have a computer (or if the above 'report a problem' doesn't work, which for some people it doesn't appear to, it takes them 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, then Purhcases, Billing & Redemption

  • I updated iTunes and then had problems. iTunes fails to download. Did they take it off-line?

    I updated iTunes and then had problems. iTunes fails to download. Did they take it off-line?

    There were no error codes.  I went to the download site and started to download. Popup window appeared and then when I clicked on save, the window disappeared, but no download appeared in the download folder.
    many thanks.
    Try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • Itunes is not showing my ipad as a device anymore, i deleted itunes and reloaded, it showed up for awhile, said it was restarting my ipad and now is not showing up again, any ideas??

    My itunes is not showing my ipad as a device anymore, i uninstalled itunes and reloaded, the ipad showed up for awhile, as updates were happening, it then said the ipad was restarting and now it is not showing up again, any ideas?? I was trying to sync my calendar and contacts which worked perfectly last time. Now when I plug in the ipad it brings up adobe photoshop album start - photo downloader and looks like it is trying download photos as if it is only seeing the ipad as a camera. very frustrating!

    Windows ONLY sees iPads and iPhones as a camera.  This is nothing new or different.
    When you open iTunes and connect the device, does iTunes detect the device?
    Have you tried a different USB port? Restarting the computer? Restarting the device?
    Frankly, uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes is a bit of a drastic step as it was likely unnecessary.

    Hi buckirich,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  It sounds like you may need to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service.  This article has instructions for doing this:

    If that doesn't resolve the issue, I would recommend trying a thorough uninstall and reinstall of iTunes as described here:

  • I downloaded a movie on one of my computers, and yet I can't see it in my purchases and I can't download it on any other devices. Any suggestions?

    I downloaded a movie on one of my computers, and yet I can't see it in my purchases and I can't download it on any other devices. Any suggestions?

    Films will only show in your library if you've downloaded it on that computer or copied it from another computer. You checked the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the store homepage to see if it shows there for redownloading on that computer
    If it doesn't show there then you can copy it over from the computer that you downloaded it on e.g. via home sharing : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 (that page refers specifally to music, but it works for other content types as well).
    Or you can right-clidck (control-click on a Mac) on the film in the iTunes library that it is on and select 'show in explorer' ('show in finder') and copy it to, for example, a flashdrive, and use that to copy it onto the other computer's iTunes library (File > Add To Library)

  • Can't sign on with my AppleID and password from my iPad or other devices.

    My AppleID and password stopped working.  I was able to reset it.  My iTunes account seems to work on my desktop.  Why aren't my iPad and other devices able to sign on?

       It is probably caused by notification for update of Ipad operating system. There may conflict between newer IOS version on desktop and older one on Ipad at the mean time if you want to access by similar account. Otherwise, you need to set up again your account at setting panel. I used to have the same problem for first days logging on Apple store or others applications required user name and password. I bought my Ipad at an Apple store and it was configured with original profile. I had to adjust and it runs very well now. Good luck !

  • Rentals failed to download on iPad

    I was downloading World War Z, on my iPad.  Got an hour into the movie and then I got a message saying it failed to download.  Now the movie is stuck in my downloads and will not restart in anyway.  I have tried resetting my iPad and even downloaded things off the cloud.  Waste of 4.99$.

  • ITunes fails to download.

    iTunes fails to load with windows XP.  Getting error message "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling my correct."  Reinstalling does not correct.  It appears associated with temporary files but deleting them and restarting does not help.  Can you help me?

    pal I have searched the apple site before posting my question. i have found other people having the same probleme. the amazing thing is the answers of apple tech. staf (insisting on blaming the AV and firewall). from my experiance I can say that AV and firewall has nothing to do with this issue what so ever (at least in my case),, why?
    1-beacause failure of download occures after downloading around 300 MB or so. there's no reason for the AV or firewall to allow downloading 300 mb then block the remaining.
    2- disabling AV and firewall wont help
    3-it's only with apple site
    4- download is so slow
    5- resuming download never worked, always start from the begining wich indicates programming errors not firewall errors
    cheers

  • ITune fails to "download" iOS 5....

    Hi,
    I've been trying to upgrade my iPhone 4 with iOS 5.
    I use iTunes 10.5.0.142 on Windows Seven, French version, in Paris.
    I tried about 6 times and it fails the same way whatever happen
    (I disabled the firewall, then the anti-virus, I also tried to "keep the connection" by going regularly on the iTunes Store, etc...).
    Simply put, when the download reaches about 380 MB out of 700 MB, I have a message like '...problem, the network connection expired...'.
    The newtork is just fine!
    I have an effective bandwidth of about 11 MBits/s and I am able to download large files.
    So, my guess is that iTunes must have some sort of problem when "dealing with the file".
    ==> How to upgrade iOS 5 when iTunes fails ? and I don't want to lose my data... :-)
    Thanks for any help

    First... Check that your Device is a 3rd Gen...
    Identify iPod Models... http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1353
    If it is... See Here  >  Updating to iOS 5  >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    If it is a 2nd Gen... then you are at the end of the road for updates...

  • I bought a movie on a different device after just changing the Apple ID on it and now I can't download it on my other device

    I Didn't have my iPad with me so I use another iPad and changed the Apple ID on it so I could look at and buy the movie I wanted and watch it later on my own iPad.  When I went to download it it wasn't in my videos but it was in my purchased.  So when I went to download it, it wouldn't let me.

    Did you buy or rent?
    Rented movies that are rented on an ios device must be watched on that device and cannot be transferred to anything else.
    I find it best to rent movies on my desktop, that way I can then transfer to my ATV or ipad.

  • Is there a way to use iMessage but not have the texts sync to my iPad or other devices, just stay on my iPhone?

    I don't like when things from my phone sync to my iPad or iPod, so I am wondering if there is a way to keep the texts on my phone and off of everything else.  I share my iPad with others and don't want to be in the middle of a conversation when all of a sudden it just appears while someone else is using the iPad.  In addition, I don't want the messages to syn to the computer when I plug my phone in, as I also share the computer with others.  This has kept me from using iMessage because of how iCloud works, but maybe I just don't have a good understanding of how they work and someone can clear it up for me.  Thanks.

    I don't even see the iMessage option on my iPad anywhere. Maybe it needs to be updated?
    Does this have anything to do with iCloud or just iMessage?
