I recently purchased music on my iPhone (4) and am now trying to transfer those purchases onto my computer. However, when I try to play the music it says my computer isn't authorized to play it. I have already authorized this computer, what do I do?

I tried unauthorizing then reauthorizing it but the same thing happened.

Oh, and I'm not sure how relevant or necessary this information is, but the iTunes store on my computer doesn't work either, which led me to buy the music on my phone. I try to open it and the top says "Accessing iTunes Store..." and never gets past like a little bit less than half. I looked at some other discussions but none of the suggested solutions worked.

My MacKeeper says iPhoto is out of date. When I try to update the App Store says I need IOS 10.9 or later. I have 10.7.5 and when I check for updates my Mac says the software is up to date. How do I solve this problem??

1. First step to solving the Problem: Trash MacKeeper. It's a pile of trash that does far more harm to your computer than good.

I recently purchased a 7th Gen iPod nano which I have downloaded my music to. However, when I try to play this it is showing on the iPod as play but I am getting no sound through. I have checked the headphones and reset it. Any ideas?

Haha I had the exact same problem. Once I had tried it like 4 different pairs of headphones i was ready to give my iPod back. Then I tried pushing the headphones in further and proceeded to kick myself. I seems a lot of people have the same problem, post it on here and realise a few minutes later.

HT1349 Help, I purchased a used iPad. When I try to register the serial number. It says it's already registered. How do I get this corrected?

Help, I purchased a used iPad. When I try to register the serial number. It says it's already registered. How do I reregister my iPad under a new user?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
That's because the old owner still has it as a registrated device on his/her Apple ID. Contact with him/her and ask to remove the registrated device from the Apple ID, so you will be able to register it as your iPad

Hi Harry,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you have installed iTunes on your new computer, make sure you have downloaded or copied the songs to the new computer as well. The steps in this article can help with copying your music to a new computer:
iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between computers - Apple Support
You may also be able to download the past purchases from the iTunes Store:

If you've already copied or downloaded the songs to the iTunes library on your new computer, see if the files are displaying a red exclamation mark next to them. If so, this article can be helpful:

I bought a hd movie on my iPad , however when I try to play on Apple TV 1st generation. It does not appear or says content not available. My TV is hd compatible

I bought a hd movie on my iPad , however when I try to play on Apple TV 1st generation. It does not appear or says content not available. My TV is hd compatible

AppleTV1 only supports HD upto 720p - chances are the iPad HD vserion is 1080p and beyond ATV1 capability.
Also do not expect recent iTunes purchases to appear on AppleTV 1 store menus as purchased - ATV1 does not know about 'cloud access'.
Best option is to download the 720p version (set in iTunes Preferences on computer iTunes) and sync/stream to AppleTV 1 from iTunes.

Hello Lakesidetom,
It sounds as though you are experiencing an issue with an Apple ID and authorizations. Based on your post, it sounds like you are familiar with the authorizing and deauthorizing process. The Apple ID in question (your wife's email) may be originating from the iPhone you are attempting to update. Is it possible that your wife created an Apple ID or iCloud account which is signed in on that iPhone? Below, I have included links to some resources that may help you determine if your wife has created an Apple ID:

Not from your end. Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

It's a Magic Mouse question. I have set this up in Preferences by ticking Swipe between pages with one finger and also Swipe between full-screen apps with two fingers, however when I try to do the latter, the 2 finger swipe will take me from the app that I am on to the dashboard only and not to my other open apps.
I also find that Smart zoom only works with some apps, for instance not with Word docs or email.
How can I correct this please?

Just figured out it also does not work with the Mail app.

Hi Kelly,
As someone who has to print from my Mac to a networked printer at home all the time, I can certainly understand how frustrating it must be to have that fail to perform as expected. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
OS X Yosemite: Printing troubleshooting
Start with the section titled Check the network.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

I was receiving the same error message yesterday, which said There was a problem downloading "The Song Name / Album / Artist". The file seems to be corrupted. To redownload the file, choose "Check for Available Downloads" from the Store menu. The file tries to download five times before this error message appears.
I too, tried to find the file and delete it, but it was no where to be found.
So I gave up for that moment and tried again today and I was able to successfully download the file. Amazing how that works!!!
