I downloaded a song and it won't transfer to my iPod how do I get it to?

I tried unplugging it and plugging it back in but it still won't transfer. I even tried dragging the song to "My iPod" under "Devices" and still won't work! What can I do to transfer that song to my iPod?

You can get iTunes purchases back by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
For other items you need to get them from whee yuo got them the first time.
The iPod backup that iTunes makes does not include synced mediai like apps and music. If those ore not in the iTunes library on the computer on which you performed the update they are lost.

I have a playlist on my nano currently. My computer had to be rebooted and now the playlist won't sink onto my computer. I just downloaded over 50 songs and they won't load onto my ipod either.

the computer/itunes says it is syncing but it only takes a few seconds and nothing happens. I don't have a clue what to do. I want to play the new songs. the old songs i don't care about as much but i should be able to save and sync both lists together on my ipod. please please help me

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

I downloaded a song and it won't play. It just skips to the next song. I can't delete and redownload and I don't know what to do.

Help!

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

You don't say whether you are on PC or Mac. For Mac there are these two programs which might help (I havn't tried either) :

http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/idupe.html
There are probably similar programs for PCs, but I don't know what they are. On a PC you can hold the shift key and do File > Display Exact Duplicates (without the shift they may not be exact matches) - if one of each duplicate pair has the same date added then you can sort by that and then delete those with (or without) that date.

HT1338 when I turn on my macbook,macosx pops up and it won't log on my password.How do I get out of it?

When I turn on my MacBook,Mac osx pops up and asking for my password but it won't accept it.I need to get out of the page but how? Even when i insert the disk i' the same way.

Hello,
Do you have Firmware password protection in Mac OS X ...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1352
It would block usage of all the startup keys, like C, N, T, D, CMD+s, CMD+Option+p+r, CMD +v, Option, and Shift, as well as booting from anything but the Hard Drive.

I accidentally deleted a song and it's in the recycle bin. How do I get it back in my music library?

I have a deleted song in the recycle bin that I'd like to restore to my iTunes library. How do I do this? Thanks for the help.
JodyfromMarmora

Its worth adding that if you deleted the song using iTunes, you will need to add the track to your library with File>>Add file to library" after restoring it from the recycle bin.

I synced to a different computer and it erased the music of my iPod how do I get it back?

I recently purchased a new iPod and I was transfering to songs from my old iPod touch to my computer to my new one. When I synced my old one it erased all of my songs. I went on ITunes to see if I could redownload them and it said that the music had already been purchased but it wasn't on my old iPod or new one. If you could please let me know how I could fix that it would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Faith Stinson

OK, so on your new computer, are you logged on with the same iTunes logon that you had on the old computer? If so, then you can go into the iTunes Store on that computer, and re-select each of the songs or albums you had previously purchased (one at at time). Be sure to select the exact same song or album (for instance, if a particular song is available on two different albums, or by itself, be sure that you select the same place you originally selected that song from). Then select the "Buy" button. It will ask for your AppleID password - key it in and press Enter.
iTunes should come back to you and say "You have already purchased this song. Do you want to download it again for free?" Say yes, and it will download your previously purchased song to your new iTunes Library. Once it is downloaded, sync your iPod, and you should be all set!
Note: if it says are you sure you want to purchase it - then you have either selected the wrong "version" of the song/album or have not signed on with the AppleID originally used to purchase that song/album.
Hope this helps!
Cheers,

My last computer crashed and it had all my songs and i got a new ipod how do i get those songs back

ok so my last computer crashed and it had all my songs and that day i got a new ipod how do i get those songs back thast i paid for?

If the songs are not on an iPod or a computer (didn't you have a backup of your computer files?) you are probably out of luck since you only get one download of music from the iTunes store and it is up to you to back them up. However, the Itunes store may allow a redownload if you explain what happened. Go to the following and select the appropriate topic to contact them.

HT201303 I have rented 2 movies the past 9 days and they won't transfer to my iPad - error message says that they cannot be played on my iPad. I haven't watched either movie and this is the first time I have ever had this happen.

I have rented 2 movies the past 9 days and they won't transfer to my iPad (first generation). Get the same error message that says they cannot be played on my iPad. I haven't watched either movie and this is the first time I have ever had this happen after several successful movie rentals and transfers.

When you have a query please post the feed URL rather than its contents. For the record, yours is at

I don't have an iPad to test this, so I can only refer you to Apple's Podcast Tech Specs page:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#formattingvideo
This says that the maximum video size for an iPad is 1024x768 - your latest episode is 1280x720.
Slightly confusingly, it also says
'iPad & Apple TV can play the following video formats:
H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format'
which suggests that mp4 files are even more limited.
Incidentally your feed gives this URL for the media file:
http://www.honywoodschool.com/user/59/133934.mp4
However when downloaded this produces a file called 'howtosetupappeid.mp4' so soe sort of redirect appears to be in place, and these can sometimes cause trouble. It's better to link directly to the file - it's possible that the iPad doesn't handle the redirect.
That's all I can suggest: if it still doesn't cover the problem I can only refer you to the iPad forum where someone may be able to actually try your podcast and offer a comment.
