I purchased songs the other day with a gift card and they now show up in my purchase history but won't download into my library.

For some reason my computer won't let me download any new music it lets me buy them on itunes and then they show up as purchased but they don't acutally show up in my library. The other thing is that my computer automatically sends any new music to my phone over my wifi so these new purchased songs show up on my Iphone but not in my library. When I try to download new purchases in itunes it brings up an error message that says "There were problems downloading some purchased items"

Select the Recently added playlist and see if they show up there.

They are being downloaded from the iTunes store, not syncing from yrou computer.
Settings > iTunes & App stores.
If Automatic donwloads is set to On, whenever you make a purchase using any device/computer, they will be automatically downloaded to your phone.

  • I bought a song the other day and it only downloaded about a third of it. How do I fix the problem when iTunes doesn't recognize the mistake?

    Bought a song the other day and it did not download correctly. I am over 50 and a little new to using this technology so please pardon me if it is an easy fix. iTunes will not allow me to download it again or to even buy it again, so I cannot figure out how to fix it. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    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.

  • When trying to purchase songs on my itunes with a gift card, its telling me i have to have the correct billing information on my debit card which I know is correct already. How do I go about fixing this?

    Part of the validation for credit cards is that they need to be registered to exactly the same name and address that you have on your iTunes account, which prepaid cards tend not to be. Do you have a proper credit card that you could use ? Or are iTunes gift cards available in your country so that you could try using them as your payment method ?
    Until you have a valid payment method on your account and what you owe iTunes has been paid off then you won't be able to download any item from the store, including free apps (and updates to apps).

    No, Firefox keeps the cache index files in memory during the session and only writes that data to disk if Firefox closes properly. If that didn't happen and Firefox finds the dirty cache flag still set then the cache gets deleted (moved to the Trash folder) and a new cache is created to avoid issues with an inconsistent cache.

    Hi Kim ...
    Might not just be the security code > iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records
    Apple "verifies" your billing credentials with every transaction.
    what does my debit card have to do with my having a redeemed ITunes card
    If the total purchase price of the media including any applicable taxes or fees exceeds the balance of the redeemed card, then the difference is charged to your debit or credit card account.

  • What is the difference between corporate iTunes gift-cards and regular ones

    I have a small business and would like to make a competition and award iTunes gift-cards to the winners.
    I saw that there are corporate gift-cards but I don't know what their pros and cons are.
    And with regular gift-cards sent by e-mail: do the recipients receive my e-mail address or is it a no-reply e-mail?
    Thanks for the help.

    There are no functional differences that would affect the end user. I don't think there's any difference at all in the cards, actually, just the way you buy and the quantities you can purchase. See:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/corporatesales/
    As to emailed codes sent through this program, I'm not sure if the recipient would see your email address. Call iTunes Corporate Sales and they should be able to tell you.
    Regards.

  • HT5137 Problem; App bought with iTunes gift card and cannot be downloaded.

    Go to your account on your computer and set the credit card to none. This will allow you to use the gift card.

  • I bought a few songs the other day, and only half of most of the songs downloaded. Like as in all of the songs downloaded but only go to about 1:30 then stop playing. Is there any way to fix this?

    It was around like 16ish 3-4 minute long songs that only played up to 1 minute 30 seconds. If this can't be fixed, is there a way i could at least get a refund?

    Amazing steps you've done so far! The great news is this is very unlikely an issue with your iPhone.
    I've run into a similar issue lately as well. I narrowed it down to one song that was causing 30 songs not to sync. I removed the song from the sync list (unchecked it) and all 29 songs were able to sync.
    You may be running into a similar issue. This may be a problem with this version of iTunes, an issue with one song or a group of songs; hard to know for sure. It's important to narrow down and isolate the cause. Most imporantly get that music back on there!
    The way to narrow down the casue add just a few songs at a time (even 1, just to get that first sync finished). Manually syncing is what you'll need here.
    Plug in your iPhone, on the Summary screen (shows a picture of your iPhone, the iOS version, Restore iPhone....; etc). Under the Options area at the bottom choose to Manually Manage Videos and Music then choose Apply in the lower right. The music that's on your iPhone now should be removed from your iPhone now. You're now able to sync music manually.
    The link below explains how to drag the songs from the iTunes library on the computer on to your iPhone which will start the sync. Add just one song just to see if you can get 1 of those hundreds of songs on there. If you can, awesome! Keep adding until you find the song or group of songs that are causing this issue.

  • I updated my phone the other day to 4.3.4 and now I can't send photo messages? Or is there a new way to send photos?

    Like the title states, I use to be able to go to a text message and click the little camera image to the left of the text box and select or take a photo, now that option is gone. I tried going to my photo library and click on the options button to send as mms but I only have a print option, email, assign as contact ID or use as wallpaper.... No mms option.
    Where and how do I send photos in a text message again. Seems like we're back to square one again.

    I still haven't gotten this issue resolved. I have the last generation 3GS if that helps. I updated the phone about a week or ago and I can't send or receive media texts. I had this option before I downloaded the update and now I can't send or receive media. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • I am a US citizen in school in Montreal and I was given a US Apple Store gift card. How can I buy the new iPad using my gift card and with a school discount?

    I am a grad student from NYC and at a university in Montreal. I was given a 500$ gift card as a gift to put towards a new ipad. BUT, I apparently cannot use the US gift card in Canada. So, what do I do? I have no time to head back to NYC to get it. I want to order it, but not sure they will ship to montreal...? And was thinking of sending it back to my parents and then have them buy it and mail it to me, but I I think them having to pay tax on this is ridiculous. On top of that, I should be able to garner the ed discount but I dont think the US recognizes Canadian schools in their system and visa versa. SO if I do buy it in the US, I can use my gift card but I can't get the discount. Or if I buy it here in MTL, I can get the discount but I cannot use the gift card..
    Can anyone suggest a solution? all bright ideas welcome.

    You can only use a gift card in the country it was issued in - no way around that as the Apple Store does NOT offer currency exchange with gift cards.
    Nor can you order from the USA online store and ship to any address outside of the USA - again, no way around that as the online stores do NOT ship internationally.
    You could send the gift card back to someone in the USA, to use to purchase your item for you, and then once they receive it, they could ship it to you.  Canada customs will hold it until they collect any import fees and taxes levied on imported consumer electronics though.
    Either that or buy it in Canada with the discount, and use the card later when you get home again.
