  • Re-downloading purchased items from Itunes

    I had my PC repaired recently and lost all of my downloaded music and TV shows that were purchased from the Itunes store. Anyone knw how I re-download the purchased items on my new PC?

    Where is your backup copy? This is basic.

    As Niel suggests, you can ask for an exception, but they are not obligated to allow.

  • Error -42018 Cannot Download Purchased Music from iTunes Store

    I cannot download music, it says unknown error -42018 check network connection and try again. I can download videos just fine, but music. This has never done this before. I downloaded music before just fine. I turned off my firewall but no luck. Please help resolve!!!

    Hey everybody,
    I also was experiencing the unknown error -42018 when attempting to download purchased music. Additionally, I was stuck in an endless authorization loop when attempting to play previously purchaed music. All this started when I installed the latest iTunes software 7.0.2.
    I run windows XP Pro, and unlike the majority of users I actually set it up correctly with a dedicated administrator account, and regular user accounts instead of just running as admin all the time. For me, that was the cause of the problem.
    The new version of iTunes software required FULL CONTROL privilages on the iTunes and iPod install directories for all user accounts that were using the program. (Previous versions worked fine, so this is a new thing.) Once I provided those permissions, iTunes worked correctly. Follow this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/304040 for information on how to provide FULL CONTROL to every user account.
    I hope you all find this helpful in solving your problem.
    Good Luck,
    Bill

  • Cannot view purchased items in itunes on IPad 2

    When accessing itunes on my Ipad 2, I am not able to view previous purchases from the itunes store.  Thus, I cannot get  to any podcasts that I subscribe to.  Can anyone help me figure out why I'm locked out of my own purchase history?

    Your question can be taken two ways.
    If you are trying to watch movies that you downloaded in iTunes, you view them in the Videos App on the iPad, not in the iTunes app. iTunes on the iPad is a link to the store, not a media player.
    If you are trying to view past purchases in the iTunes app, are you looking in the Purchased Tab of the Movies Section - Not on this iPad?

  • Cannot download purchased movie from Itunes

    Rented a movie and it shows up in purchases. I cannot download it. I get the same error message non-stop, tap to retry - to no avail. Please help!

    Purchasing more storage in iCloud was not necessary. You may need more space locally - on the iPad itself - not in the cloud. But did you receive a message saying that you needed space to download the movie? If you did, then you need to delete content on the iPad to free up space.
    Settings>General>Usage>Storage. You can see which apps are taking up the most space and you can see videos and TV shows that are on the iPad. You can delete content in there via the Edit button and download it again later a desired. Most purchased content can be downloaded again for free but there are some limitations and exclusions.

  • Cannot Download Purchased Music After iTunes Match Subscription Expired

    The other day my iTunes Match subscription expired (making less money and decided to cut out the cost). I expected to not be able to access music I had stored on my computer (which was the only reason I did Match in the first place), but now, even songs I have very recently purchased using my phone are unavailable. I don't typically buy songs while on my computer, preferring instead to just use the iTunes app on my phone to make the purchases on the go. After purchasing them, I did not think they would not actually be downloaded to my phone. Anytime I try to re-download these songs, I receive a pop up notification stating when my iTunes Match subscription expired. Is there a way to get these songs to play on my phone without having to pay for iTunes Match again? I'm pretty unhappy about this because that was not how Match was advertised to function and don't feel we should have to pay a yearly fee just to be able to restore our purchases we made on the actual device.
    My phone is a 32 gb 5S running iOS 8.3.

    I've been having a problem similar to this. I click download, it charges me for it and then gives me a message saying there was a problem downloading, an unknown error occurred(-50), check the network connection to make sure it is active and try again. No firewall, no web accelator, network working fine for EVERYTHING else. I think this is because the iTunes servers are overloaded. It seems to have started once they put movies, tv shows, video games, etc. on the iTunes store. I would imagine the download time of these new services are much longer and more bandwidth taxing than the music they've been selling. I usually continue to try for the next few days, maybe trying during off hours to avoid the bandwidth traffic jams, and this SEEMS to help. Although, this is all pure speculation, it is what has worked for me. Still makes me consider paying more at Borders just so I CAN own it when I pay for it. Seems if you take my money I should get the product. Kinda sucky.

  • Cannot download purchased music from itune onto my ipod

    I Downloaded music from my ipod touch 5th gen itunes app and some of the songs i bought could not download. A message appears saying "unable to download song could not be downloaded at this time" i can select either done or retry. I have signed out of iTunes and signed back in
    I have turned off my iPod and urned it back on and still nothing
    I have tried clearing space on my iPod even though I have 40 Gb still available
    iTunes on my computer have all the songs I have recently purchased and when I try to sync them to my iPod still nothing, im not sure what to do now ?

    You said:
    "when I try to sync them to my iPod still nothing"
    What exactly happens when you try to sync?
    Does iTunes see the iPod?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?          
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

    For first problem try powering off and then back on your router.
    Next try when connected to another network.

  • HT1725 Cannot download purchased video

    I cannot download purchased video from iTunes using my Dell laptop with Windows 7 and TWC ethernet.  I tried changing the DNS address to open DNS using two different options and it did not work.  I continue to get time out errors.  I am  very frustrated because i just purchased an IPad for the sole purpose of using it to watch video when i travel.  I have heard terrible things about people "renting" video from iTunes only to get on the plane and find out that they don't work.  I am afraid to shell out any more money to Apple without getting this resolved.  Of course, Apple doesn't even have a disc connection to use on the plane wtih the ipad.  I feel completely ripped off!

    Yes, some others posted that it wouldn't work when they were downloading videos to a network place.
    Your work IT dept may have set up your My Documents folder to be somewhere on the network.
    If so, make a c:\videos folder in Windows Explorer.
    Change the iTunes path, just temporarily, to go there. Make sure you write down the current path so you can get it back later, after this test.
    Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Itunes music folder = c:\videos.
    Then see if the music store video will download.
    You can always go back and change the path, since you wrote it down.

  • How can I download a previously downloaded purchase to my iTunes library on my laptop when the listing for the song in my library won't play because it says it cannot locate the file. Yes I have searched my iTunes folders and also done a full windows sear

    How can I download a previously downloaded purchase to my iTunes library on my laptop when the listing for the song in my library won't play because it says it cannot locate the file. Yes I have searched my iTunes folders and also done a full windows search. The track plays on my iPad and my iPhones but will not play on my laptop!?
    It has an "!" To the left of the song title in my library
    My worry is that if I sync my iPad/iPhone then I will lose the track on those also!

    If you cannot find the file on your hard drive then once you delete the current broken entry you should be able to redownload from iTunes in the Cloud. This assumes the item in question qualifies. Note that audiobooks, digital booklets, iTunes LPs & Extras, ringtones, selected movies etc. don't.
    If prompted don't hide the item. You may find that you need to close and then reopen iTunes before it will appear for download.

    The simplest way to transfer everything is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.

    Did you fail to back up your purchases?
    If so, then they are gone.
