I can't play songs that I've bought

I bought two songs and they stopped downloading in mid stream. I try to resume downloading and I'm told that they won't resume due to a system error # 8248. I have reported them to itunes, I have repaired my problem but, I need to know if I should try to purchase them again, or if I should wait for someone from itunes to contact me. HELP

No, I haven't figured it out.  And no one from Apple has contacted me to help.  Very frustrating.  Sure makes me want to not buy music on iTunes and just buy CD's.
Do you have a 3GS too?  Maybe it's something with that phone??

  • Can't play music that I have bought

    I dont have the same username on my mac in OS X. Which leads to problem to deauthorize my itunes account. I can’t play music that I buy, and free movies doesn’t work either. I know this is the problem, cause I have tried to reformat using my old account name in OS X, which led to no problems in iTunes. I don’t want to use my old account name (OS X).

    My old username in OS X----->karasjok
    My present username in OS X----->Stian
    iTunes account is not the same username as in OS X, I am aware of that. Problem is that I can’t play music bought from iTunes, neither can I deauthorize my iTunes account.
    But if I reformat my OS X, use my old username, all of my music bought from iTunes plays well.

  • Sync with Shuffle/can't play songs that are on shuffle

    I can no longer play the songs that are on my shuffle when I sync with itunes. Before the update I could select a song and play it before I would remove it.
    I can select the song but the play button remains gray. This is no good because I would regularly add and remove songs. I like to give a quick listen before I remove the song. Can't do that now.
    Help?
    thanks in advance

    Well I restarted my computer and sync'd my shuffle again for the 3rd time and now it likes it again. All songs play like before now. Still dont know why it did this though?

  • Can't play songs that have a "old" account name?

    i have a number of songs that have different account names.... some have my user name and then some have my user name plus "@.mac.com" at the end of the name... the ones without the @mac.com will not play? any ideas?

    I'd suggest you start a new topic with your issue (use the "Post a new topic" link at the top of each main topic page). It's generally better to ask a question as a new topic rather than as a reply in someone else's thread. It's more courteous to the original poster, and is more likely to get your question the attention it deserves.
    Meanwhile, this may help:

    Restoring from backup will result in the iPod being like it was when the backup was made. If you restore via iTunes, you have to have all the synced media in your iTunes library since those are not included in the iPod backup.

  • How can I authorize my computer to play songs that were initially downloaded under a different email address and computer

    How can I authorize my computer to play songs that were initially downloaded under a different Apple ID (email address) on a different computer?

    You need to either authorize it from that Apple ID or delete those songs and buy them from your current one.

  • HT1420 My songs that I purchased on my itunes account from my dad's computer will not play on my new computer, I have access to my entire account but can only play songs purchased using my new computer. Does anyone have any ideas?

    My songs that I purchased on my itunes account from my dad's computer will not play on my new computer, I have access to my entire account but can only play songs purchased using my new computer. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Hi Kevin,
    Have you authorized the Computer to your Apple ID?
    If not, sign on to iTunes.
    Then got to the Store menu option at the top of the screen (CTL+B if it is not showing), and click on it to display the dropdown, and select Authorize this computer.
    If that doesn't work, then sign on your Dad's iTunes ID and repeat the Authorization process.
    Cheers,

  • ITunes Match only plays songs that were uploaded to the Cloud

    I posted this once before back a couple of months ago and never did get it working. 
    I have an iPhone 4s and I purchased iTunes match about a year ago. My library was about 5,000 songs.  I was able to use iTunes Match flawlessly on cellular or WiFi and play any of my music.  Then I upgraded to iOS7, big mistake.  Ever since that upgrade back in September, when I am on cellular I can only play music that was not matched but uploaded to the cloud.  For example, when in my car I can play a live Phish show that I added to iTunes and that was uploaded to the cloud when I updated iTunes Match from my laptop, but I can't play the Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers because it was matched and not uploaded.
    I have reset the phone to factory and manullay installed my apps again.  I have turned off match and reset my phone, crossed my fingers, etc...
    What happens when I try to play a "matched album" on cellular, it acts like it is going to play but sits at 0:00 for about 20 seconds and then skips ahead and attempts to play the next track.  Everything plays fine on WiFi.
    Has anyone lese had this issue and if so any suggesttions?  I am so frustrated with the whole experience right now.  I just went to the support page to submit a ticket to Apple and apparently I don't have support anymore because I have the phone for a year. I don't what to do.

    Another oddity I just discovered is that if I turn on wifi hotspot on my phone and connect my iMac to my phone's 3G service then iTunes on my iMac will stream music just fine from iTunes match (yes, the music was only in the cloud, not on my drive).
    I've tried everything I can think of to get iTunes Match to play tracks over cellular.. including totally deauthorizing all my computers and devices, totally removing all tracks my itunes match in the cloud and re-scanning/uploading everything. Purchased new tracks, and they won't play unless they are downloaded. But they will play just fine when previeing them for purchase in iTunes app.

  • How can I import songs that are protected wma

    how can I import songs that are protected wma?

    Sorry, but you can't. iTunes can neither import nor play any protected Windows Media content. You'll have to ask the source of your tracks how to get them unprotected, if such a service is offered.
    Regards.

  • Macbook Pro will only allow AirPlay to play through iTunes, therefore I can't play songs through Safari

    Macbook Pro will only allow AirPlay to play through iTunes, therefore I can't play songs through Safari. I have tried going on to the Sound settings and selecting AirPort Express but its just jumps back to internal speakers. Its WELL ANNOYING! Any ideas?

    This is normal.
    To be able to play any audio source on your MacBook Pro, you might want to take a look at an application like Airfoil. More info below:

    How can i retrieve songs that were on my account, when my old computer is now broken to a point of no return!?

    You can restore them from your backup - if you havn't got a backup then you'll need to re-purchase them. Media (music, films, tv shows) can only be downloaded from iTunes once, which is why you are advised to make and maintain backup(s) of your purchased (and any other important) content.
