I am unable to trasfer my music bought on my ipod touch to the itunes store. why?

I am trying to transfer my music from my iPod Touch that I purchased on the iTunes app. It says that it is unable to trasnfer my music files. Is it safe to update without transfering them?

Are you following the instructions here:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
What is the exact wording of the error message?
Is the computer authorized for the account(s) the purchased the media?

I can't get the music bought on my Ipod Touch to my Itunes

Hi,
I bought music on my Ipod touch this week and now I can't get it to my Itunes (Windows).
I tried all the all the steps I know and that usually worked... But maybe somebody has had the same problem and can help me!
I've done some screenshots to show you what I've tried:
And this is how the songs show up on my Itunes: But I can't do anything with them!

Use 3rd party software like:

I have an older Ipod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new Ipod Touch and cannot be updated. Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one?

I have an older iPod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new iPod Touch and Itunes cannot be updated. Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one? It is my understanding that the music cannot be saved onto my new iTunes, b/c I did not have iCloud. I have over 2,000 songs I just cannot part with. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help some how!! THANKS!

I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

I bought a used ipod touch. The music on it was not my taste. I found a delete feature and now EVERYTHING is gone. No icons. Nothing. How do I get it back?

If you did not yet connect with iTunes, you can place any music from your library back into your iPod from the computer. When set to automatically manage usic and videos, whatever iTunes finds changed in your music app will be reset to what is on your computer iTunes library.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static IP, Subnet, Router and DNS manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected. Using Airport for router, latest firmware, no problems with Iphone 4 or Macbook Pro or any other internet devices. After total Restore (factory settings) tried again, showed connected to router, but does not display "check" next to router but little rotating icon even though the wifi range signal shows connected at full strength and it says it is connected. Just can't seem to get it to generate an IP. Any solutions other than turning it on and off again? Not a Merry Christmas morning.

Ok, so, a couple of things: Denisefromwaleska and I have the exact same size/type/color iPod. Now wishing I'd bought the black one maybe...
Second, Airport is an Express and I have a second one that I carry with me when I travel. Tried to connect my Airport Express to the internet and could not although the iPod did recognize the router and tried to connect to the internet for some time, unlike my previous problem. Updated firmware on my travel router, still could not connect to the internet. Going to try to set up a manual Static IP on the travel router here in a few and conect through it although I predict the problem will persist. Back on the Christmas Present Airport Express router, it is back in play and working fine for all devices save the iPod.
Thanks again for all your help, hopefully I can get a solution in place soon,

I just got the new itunes and I can open itunes and see my music but whenI try and go to the itunes store it just loads to a white page. I try and refresh and go to the home page and nothing happens. I can sign into my account and the tabs for the itunes store pop up like they normally would when browsing the itunes store but when I click on one of them, it is a blank page. Is there a setting I need to change? Does it just take an extremely long time to load? Please help!!

I downloaded music onto my iPhone 4S from from the iTunes Store that I previously purchased, and now I can't delete them from my phone. I tried do remove them from my MAC too, but still can't delete them.

How are you trying to delete the music direct on your iPhone?
You tried to remove the music from iTunes on your Mac how?
Do you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on your computer?

Music vanishes all the time from iPod touch using the iTunes App...

Hi
I am often not near a computer and prefer to purchase music for my iPod Touch from the iTunes app on the Touch itself. This has worked fine for many months. I believe my iPod is a 3rd gen. However lately I suddently noticed that some music purchased recently was completely missing from the iPod, even some songs purchased as part of an album just vanished... the rest of the album songs were still there, but a couple of random ones had just gone.
Now, every time I try and purchase and download something from the iTunes App (I literally just tried it again) it just doesn't appear in the purchased playlist.. or anywhere on my iPod in fact.
Essentially, I've wasted my money on buying songs that just don't appear. I've also noticed that the music search chugs a lot these days, as if there's some sort of background problem.
I recently upgraded the software (with multitasking etc) but the problem hasn't been fixed.
This is a really frustrating issue, and I have purchased several songs twice and got nothing! So really keen to see if anyone has seen it before and if they can please help me?
I've tried deleting apps, restarting the iPod... when I try and sync with the PC, the purchases are nowhere to be seen. It's all a bit disappointing really!
I'm on a 64Gig iPod touch and have 41 Gig showing as available!
Please help, I've searched for hours and got nothing on this specific issue.
Thanks

hmmm nobody can help me? Is this because nobody wants to tell me I've wasted my money?

HT1535 Unable to manually load music and video to ipod touch

Since upgrading my iTunes and ipod Touch to the latest versions I can no longer manually sync my videos and music. Any ideas?

Did you check to make sure the Manually manage music and videos option was still enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes?

Hi i wanted to transfer the music from my iphone to the computer with out erasing from my phone then when i called techinical suppost he told me to click transfer purchase (my name) and now the music i bought in itunes that was on my iphone 4 is all gone how can i get them back!!

Is the music not on your computer?
You buy one and only one download.
You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

I recently upgraded iTunes on my iPad, and now all my music is gone! I just get the iTunes Store, not my own music files. We're can I find them???

Help! My iPad prompted me to upgrade iTunes, so I did. Now all my music is unfindable. All I can see in iTunes is the store and recent purchases. All the other music, audio etc is invisible. Where have the files gone? And does anybody know of a better software management for music? Thanks!

Hi,
Can you please clarify your problem? iTunes on an ipad is an integral part of iOS 6, so there would be no separate update.
Was the update on your computer and if so, what version of iTunes did you have and what version did you upgrade to.
