I purchased "protected" song from Itunes (MPEG-4), why can't I transfer to
my Shuffle???

Make sure you and your computer are authorized to play the content. (Play the song in iTunes and enter your password when prompted to do so).
Then try to sync your iPod.
Let us know what happens! And please try to give us some more information (specific error messages / number codes), stuff like that would be greatly appreciated!
Best wishes,

I have purchased 2 songs from itunes. They show up in itunes library on my computer, but when I sync ipod with computer, the songs do not transfer to ipod
Is your iPod configured to sync these tracks? How do you have your iPod set up to sync music from your iTunes library?

I just recently purchased 3 songs from itunes not knowing that I had no money on my debit card (visa) left. My iphone wont let me update my apps and says that there was a billing problem with my last purchase. I dont know what I am supposed to do! I dont understand why it worked in the first place when it wasn't supposed to!
There seems to be a billing problem with the iTS. I've been trying to make purchases today (Dec 9th) too and it reports either the iTS can not process payments or it says my card was declined. I even changed the payment method to Paypal (which is never declined) and still no go.
I don't think it is "you" but a problem at Apple. Some popular new apps were released recently like Logic Pro and perhaps they're getting bombarded as they did when Lion was released.
Wait a few hours and then try again. -
Purchased a song from iTunes on my iPad but its not showing up on my MacBook Pro
Purchased a song from iTunes on my iPad but its not showing up on my MacBook Pro? When I purchase on my Mac it always shows up. Checked. Can't download again from recent downloads and I tried to purchase again just to see and it wants to charge me.
Hi OP
Did this sort your problem? I have the same one too. Purchased tracks on my iPad not showing up on MBP or iPhone. Itunes wants to charge me for it againa dn again!
Anyone? -
Every time I try to purchase a song from itunes, it says I have to put in security questions and answer them, which it's never done before. Then after I do the questions, it says that an error occurred and my changes couldn't be saved. It has been doing this for weeks, and I can't purchase anything! HELP!
Hi mterry1723, one solution that might be worth trying is this:
- Close iTunes, if it's open
- Open Safari and got to 'Preferences'
- Select 'Security' on the top
- Untick all the security options in the menu
- Click the 'Show Cookies' button and look for all the 'apple' entries in the left-hand column.
- Highlight them (select them collectively) and press 'Remove'
- Now open iTunes and buy the song as usual.
- You may be asked to do the same security process as before, so do as asked.
- Hopefully, the security check will now have accepted your answers and start downloading the song as normal.
Remember to re-tick all the required security options you had just un-ticked in Safari preferences. You don't need to bother about opening the cookies again.
I hope this has worked for you and my profoundest apologies if it has not. Worth a go, though!

I purchased a song from iTunes on my iPhone, downloaded the song and now I am unable to play it on my iPhone. It just keeps skipping to the next song and won't play it on my iphone but rather only on my laptop.....
Hey pnazaryan
If the purchased content is not playing, delete the songs from the Music app by swiping at the song. Then go through the process of downloading the track again.

Help! When I try to purchase a song from iTunes and have agreed to the terms and conditions, it then tells me that my session has timed out... but I've only been trying for a few minutes. I can't buy songs if it keeps doing this! Does anyone know why it's doing this and how to fix it? Thanks!

I've purchased 9 songs from iTunes and a week later I decided to factory reset my iMac. How do I get the songs back?
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

When I attempt to purchase a song from itunes, I keep getting the following error message: Could not purchase "song name". An unknown error occurred (-42408). There was an error in the itunes store. Please try again later
Can anyone help solve this problem?I've done a search on here and haven't found any solutions posted for it for windows computers. You could try posting in the iTunes For Windows forum and see if you get any suggestions in there (are you able to download other items from the store e.g. a free app ?) - I use a Mac, the only things that I could think of to suggest trying is see if you get the same error on a different iTunes library :
creating and/or opening a different iTunes library : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1589
or using a different user account on your computer in case it's a problem with that user account.
But you may want to try the iTunes For Windows forum first, apart from anything else you are likely to get better help for the above -
I purchased a song from iTunes and when I try to play it I get a message that the original file cannot be found and asks if I want to try and locate file. I locate the file and it's empty?!
Delete the file, then download again from the iTunes Store, Purchased section (in the Quick Links sidebar).

Why do I have to download songs/albums onto my iphone when I have icloud and purchased the songs from itunes? I thought the purpose of purchasing from itunes when you have icloud is that you don't have to download each song/album that you want to hear. I get like 5-10 songs from the last two albums i have downloaded, but not the entire album.
Are you talking about iTunes Match? If so, you don't have to download entire albums, all you have to do is play the songs you want to hear.
If you're asking why you have to download the music at all rather than just playing it from iCloud, the music has to be stored locally on your device, either in permanent or cache memory, in order for your device to play it. -
purchased a song from iTunes, i tried to transfer it to my itouch, but i received an error "iTunes could not copy because the file could not be converted". how do i convert the song (well, i thought it will automatically be converted)?
Problem Fixed:
Remove the song from your itunes library, then go to the itunes store and try to download it again. It will say something like "this song has already been purchased, would you like to download it again for free?". Click yes, and it will download again. This worked for me, hope it helped -
HT1391 I have purchased a song from itune but it is not listed under my purchased items, why
I have purchased a song from itune but it is not listed under my purchased items, why
By 'purchased items' do you mean the Purchased link under Quick Links in the store ? If you do then do other songs that you've purchased appear there (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) ?

Two weeks ago Purchasing 60 songs from iTune store.So Two of them play only half of song and then jumping to another songs.What is could be?Looks like is not been downloaded full.Can i get this two songs to play correct?Many thanks Aleksejs!!!
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
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 items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items. -
purchased new songs from itunes and when I clicked on the Sync button those new songs are not added to my ipod nano. Have any idea how to resolve this problem?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync the music to your iPod?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Do they play in iTunes on the computer?
Have you successfully synced music form this iTunes library/computer before?
