I'm trying to download music and apps.

When I press download my iPad says 'there was a problem with a previous billing purchase'. I use a prepaid visa for online purchases. When I enter its information in the payment information screen I'm told I'm wrong.

Part of the validation for a credit card on iTunes is that it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and be issued by a bank in your country and for you to currently be in that country - prepaid cards will fail on the registered to your account's name and address. Do you have a 'proper' credit card, or are iTunes gift cards available in your country for you to use as your payment method ?

  • HT1386 The laptop I originally synch'd my iphone 4s with is broken and cannot retrieve any files. How can I sync the phone with a new laptop without losing all my downloaded music and apps already installed on my iphone?

    If the answer to the above question is "yes", FIRST, set up a backup of your new computer before you do anything else so the next time your computer breaks you will not be in the same situation. Backup solutions are numerous and inexpensive, and there is absolutely no excuse in the Third Millennium not to have one.

    iTunes may not be showing the files. Please check in explorer to verify they are actually gone. There are many reported instances of iTunes losing track of files even when they are still there.

  • Hi. I'm new to this and thought I already posted this question, but don't see it anywhere. My question: If I get a new iPhone, can I still use the old one like an iPod and download music and apps?

    If I buy a new iphone, can I still use the old one like an ipod with my iMac and download music, videos and apps?

    Absolutely, Yes. I'm sure that many iPhones are "recycled" that way within a family.
    The worst that will happen is that once in a while it will remind you to activate it as a phone. Just ignore the notifications.

  • Moved all my files to my portable hard drive and put them back on my computer but all downloads - music and apps - aren't showing up on my computer

    I had a problem where I had to remove all of my picture, movie, and music files from my computer and now that I've put what I moved back onto my computer, I went to sync my iPod and realized that all of my previously downloaded apps and music files are not showing up in iTunes and I haven't been able to locate my apps anywhere. If I sync my iPod, will the files on my iPod transfer to iTunes or will I lose everything? I paid money for a lot of those apps and I don't want to risk losing them. Help please!!

  • Itunes music and apps question

    I was just wondering if you could get any type of virus or spyware from downloading music and apps (free apps and non-free apps) from itunes. Thanks for the help in advance!

    I've never had any problems with that. I've been getting the free singles of the week since sometime in 2004.
    Most malware from song files comes from torrent downloads.
    Illegal free downloads, in other words, where you don't have a reputable source, like itunes or amazon.

  • Some music and apps that I have downloaded from i-tunes "cannot be found" when trying to download them onto my ipod.  Why is this happening when they are available on my computer?

    Some music and apps that I have purchased and downloaded from i-tunes "cannot be found" when I try to put them on my i-pod.  Why is this happening and what can I do about it?

    In iTunes, select the audio book and righ click and select Get Info. Go to the options tab and click on Media kind and change it to Audiobook. It will then appear  on the iPod under Audio books. On the iPod that is Muisc app>More>Audobooks.

    My husband and I are using the same iTunes account on all mac & pc computers, but the libraries are different on each machine.  We always manually manage our music (no auto sync).  iTunes is up to date on the PCs.  My husband uses our joint iTunes account on his pc, but once again, has a different collection in his library from those on the other machines.  He can't load any music from his PC to his iphone 4.  I can load music from my mac library to my iphone 4s, but cannot load from my pc library to my iphone 4s.  How can I switch my main library that it syncs with from the mac to the pc?
    Thanks
