I'm trying to play a song and itunes is repeatly asking me to authorize the account.  I have authorized the account and it will not play one particular song.  What should I do?

If just one song on an album is doing that, 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.

  • I live in the UK but visit the US regularly. The price of a new MacBook Pro is much less in the US, and is where I plan to buy one. However, I have read that a US machine will not play UK DVD's. Is this true and if so is it possible to change the codes?

    I live in the UK but visit the US regularly. I plan to buy a MacBookPro in the US but have read that it will not play UK DVD's. Is this so? If so, is it possible to change the codes?

    All modern & new Macs can play both PAL and NTSC DVDs.  I do it all the time and it works perfectly.
    The DVD drive is set to its first region code when you first play a DVD in it.  So when you buy a Mac, whatever type of DVD you play first will determine the initial region code that is set.   If it's a PAL/Region 2 DVD it will set the DVD drive to region 2.
    The only thing you have to watch out for is if you have a collection of DVDs that have different region codes.  In those cases you may be faced with changing the region code in the DVD drive in order to play one or more of the DVDs; and as others have noted there is a limit to the number of times you can change the region code (most modern DVD drives allow up to 5 changes; the 5th change becomes the permanent change).  This is due to industry licensing practices.
    If you have DVDs that are Region 0 or All Regions you don't have to worry about region codes.

  • I have authorized my computer, but it does not play my most recent downloads, why?

    I have purchased some music on iTunes.  I have gone to my library to play the tracks, but then it asks me to authorize my computer.  I have authorized it, but did so again.  It recognized this computer, but refuses to play the song.  It goes back to the authorization part.  What gives?  I have already paid for the music?

    If that's the only song purchased using that particular iTunes account that is giving you that error message, that suggests that the song file is damaged.

    Thanks for the response. Do you have more specified instructions to which you can direct me? This sounds "too easy." I had a problem once before consolidating libraries (when moving the music from my hard drive to an external hard drive on my old computer). I missed one small step and it was a nightmare!
    My libraries are already on my external drive, btw. Thanks.

  • It's not that the Flash plugin has crashed, it's that Firefox will not play the code written - IE9 does, Chrome does, Safari does - what's up with your Flash support - it's been brain dead for the last three releases - ever since v4 I think

    Enter this url in any modern browser IE9 (I never would have believed that I would be complaining about Firfox not working and IE does! - it that how far you've gone down?), Chrome (no wonder people are switching to it in droves) and even Safari - and it plays, but not in Firefox v6.02 - it used to play fine when I first uploaded it back in July 2010 (v3.6 Firefox I think)

    Try this link in Firefox v6 and then try it in Chrome - nuf said.
    Hope you can fix this or I'll be having a big disclaimer on all of my site - does not work in Firefox. Never thought I would be saying this.
    Thanks. Craig.

    I should test it on my wife's old Xp with v3.6 - too late tonight - will check tomorrow. Thanks for your help. Craig.

  • The sample audio files in Final Cut Pro X will not play

    How can I hear the sample audio in Final Cut Pro X without dragging the clips onto the timeline. They used to play, but stopped after the computers were connected to Tenaka.

    The only way to test it is to go to Network system prefrences and switch off all connections to networking. There are no plugins for FCP that are used for network connections.

  • A powerpoint uploaded on OneDrive will not play in Firefox

    I have uploaded a powerpoint on OneDrive that I want to share with others.
    When one clicks the link it brings up a message that says
    "this video can't be played in this browser. Try using a different browser or downloading the video and playing it in a video app"
    Yet the previous video did play. Same system to create the video, same computer, same type of video.
    It is NOT practical to tell me to go make adjustments on my computer, as those contacts that I am sending it to, will not go through all the trouble to do that, nor will they download it and use a video app.
    I have tried both a powerpoint show as well as a windows media video.
    I have tried to down load the firefox PowerPoint plug in.
    I am not committed to using OneDrive if you can suggest another way to massively distribute a PowerPoint show
    of how to put it on a link on a website.
    Thanks,
    Rayda

    This does not help because I have the very same type of video posted a few months ago that plays fine. Plus as I stated, the people you send it to are NOT NOT going to go to Mozilla support and see why it don't play they are simply going to ignore the video and not watch it. Kills the reason to send it.
    It is a marketing PowerPoint and is going out to people who don't have a solid relationship or reason to watch it.
    It simply need to come up and play and not have a dozen excuses from FireFox why it don't play. Or several steps to go through to get it to play.
    The original one still does play.

    Yet this new one does not play

    same computer
    same Powerpoint system
    same way it was recorded and saved
    Same way it was uploaded on OneDrive
    Same version it was saved as
    yet Firefox will not play it, it will not play on my computer
    and not on 3 other team members computer
    Chrome will play it fine
    So what did FireFox change so it is no longer compatible?
    It should NOT need to be a fix that every person has to go fix something with their FireFox to get it to play. That is not going to happen.

  • Flash player will not play flvs from folder with name containing non-Roman Chars

    We're trying to play flash as part of a program that can be installed to locations including non-Roman chars (European, Arabic, Chinese, etc.).  When the installation path includes any non Roman chars, video will not play.  The non-roman chars are garbled when Flash tries to load the flvs. Correct non-Roman chars are: ńśćłł.  When loading video it gets translated to: ńśćłł

    Not exactly sure what you are doing, but it is obvious that some part of the program you are running does not support multibyte characters like Unicode.
    If you are developing that application, make sure it is Unicode enabled.  If it is Flash (or Flash Player) that doesn't understand it, then you may not be able to do anything about it.
    What I would try if I were to encounter the situation, I would try to use the DOS (8.3) path names, like C:\Documents and Settings would normally be C:\DOCUME~1 or C:\Documents and Settings\All Users would be C:\DOCUME~1\ALLUSE~1 etc.
    Use the DIR /X command to find out what the DOS folder names are.

  • My touch will not play sound thru speakers while on the universal dock but will play when it is off

    how do i get my itouch to play thru speakers while on the universal dock?

    hmm if your ipod touch  will not play music tru its internal speakers while it is connected to a power cable might be beacuse of a malf. to fix this issue just restart your ipod touch while connected to a power adapter. if this does not work it may be a hardware problem. please take it to your nearest apple store. they might be able to fix the issue and if your ipod touch is under warrenty they might be able to replace it.

  • Why will iTunes 10.5.1 will not play TV Shows

    Last weeks as well as earlier TV Shows still play normally, yet the latest TV Show I purchased yesterday (Pan Am) will not play and I get a message stating: This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes. Why is this, it was the latest TV show released last week, purchased on iTunes and will not run on an iMac.
    What is the reason for this and how do I fix it?
    Thank you

    I have the same problem since update of itunes to version 10.5.1.
    Downloaded movies after the update couldn't be started in itunes.
    Only the same message "...requires QuickTime...." will be shown.
    The movies are new one (Transformer 3,....)
    Open itunes in 32-Bit mode, start movie, stop itunes and start itunes again in 64-Bit mode fix it.
    Then the movie shows its cover and can be started as usually - as it was bevor the itunes update.
    In my case, no hardware and software changes have been made during this time.
    Maybe, the Problem is in the first recognition of itunes in 64-Bit mode. All old movies run as usual.
