I have purchased an album on my iphone and only half of the songs appear on my purchases. When I click update purchases it says all purchases have been updated! This also happens to some single songs, they arent showing up on my PC purchases! But they appear on my purchased playlist on the phone! What can I do?

HT1725 I downloaded an album from itunes and only half of the songs have downloaded. The rest of the songs keep trying to download and then come up with an error saying they cannot download at this time. I'm not sure what the issue is.

I downloaded an album from itunes and only half of the songs have downloaded. The rest keep trying to download, but I keep getting a message that says, "Song cannot be downloaded at this time. Do you want to retry or be done." Each time I retry, the same thing happens. They will not download. I have restarted my phone and the same problem remains.

Other people have been having similar problems with songs over a number of days.
Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting it from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account 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 song and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.

I cannot access one user on my iMac. When I log onto that user the dekstop appears unpopulated and blank and half of the programs do not appear on the operating bar. When I attempt to click on a program such as Safari nothing happens. Nothing works and I can only exit by doing a command/option/esc and restarting the computer. The other user and the Administrator work fine. What has disabled the one user? How do I recover this user and its files?

No.. I have been through parental control and it does not affect this problem. Now if I log onto this user I cannot get out even with a comman/option/escape; I have to unplug the power to the computer to get it to restart with the administrator. I saw somewhere that there is a process in which I can delete the use and then create a new user with the same name and password and then recover everything - but I cannot find that solution. This is a real problem for me, as you might imagine.

Hi crgcain,
If some of the songs on an album purchased from the iTunes Store are incomplete or won't play, you may want to try deleting them and redownloading the files. You may find the following article helpful:

I purchased an entire album and only two of the songs download; the other is "in cloud" why?

I purchased an entire album and only 2 of the 3 songs downloaded. The other is "in cloud" and won't download. When clicked on, it reads this this computer already associated with an apple id. All songs bought together, at same time, don't understand! Why is this happening?

If only one track on the album is throwing that message, that suggests the track is damaged.
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

HT201272 When I download a previously purchased song to my iMac only half of the song plays

Any idea why only half of every song plays when I download a previously purchased album or song to my iMac?

Does the track play correctly in Quicktime Player? If it does then it is an iTunes issue. If it doesn't then it is possible the file was not completely downloaded, or is corrupt.

I purchased two albums on my Iphone and they will not show up on my MacBook Pro

I ahve tried to chaeck for availible downloads multiple times but it says there are no downloads. Also, the songs are there just greyed out and i can't play them. If i go onto the Itunes Store then it gives me an option to buy them again instead of saying purchased. Furthermore, all the songs i bought off my phone are on my phone and i can play them. PLEASE HELP

Hi Chase!
Here's an article to download purchases directly onto other devices like your MacBook Pro after already purchasing them on a different device:

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
You'd want to go to Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on a computer, then whichever iTunes version you are using.
I've also linked this article in case you want to have new items download automatically:

HT201272 My iPhone won't download music from iCloud only apps. The songs appear to download, then give a download error message just before it finishes. Also the songs won't transfer when I sync the phone to pc, only the apps.

My iPhone only downloads apps from iCloud, the songs get almost finish then I get a download error message. Also the only thing that syncs are the apps, not the music when I sync on pc?

Hi,
I experienced the same issue as you have. What worked for me is the following:
Go to iTunes store on your iPad. Under Downloads (the icon to the bottom right) you should see the episode that is causing you the issue. Delete this episode (swipe to left). Then retry. This worked for me.
The workaround is far from ideal and Apple needs to find a solution for this as you are not the only one who reported this issue.

You do not need to transfer anything. Open the wishlist, and click on the price of any song(s) that you want to buy.
Once you have purchased them and have them in your library, simply put them into an iTunes playlist and burn in the normal way.

I bought a new iPhone and only photos from the last 30 days were transferred to my photostram on icloud. I thought icloud was the storage for all my old photos. How do I access the old photos on icloud?

I bought a new iPhone 5. Only photos from the last 30 days were transferred to my photostream on iCloud. I thought iClud was the storage for all the old photos. How do I access the older photos than 30 days on iCloud?

Where, exactly, did you read anything from Apple that suggested that iCloud Photostream was permanent storage?
