  • Keep receiving the iTunes error:  The file seems to be corrupted.  To redownload the file choose "Check for available downloads" from the store menu.

    I keep getting the above error.  When I go through the store tab, I continue to get the same message.  I found something about deleting the tmp file earlier today at another site but it was related to an older version of iTunes and was of no real help.
    All I want to do is download the song I've been charged for.
    Solutions?

  • I can't seem to download anything on my iTunes when I use Check for available downloads. I have preorders that I can't download cos it just says 'iTunes store temporarily unavailable' even tho when I actually go on iTunes itself it work fine..

    I've been in contact with Apple support team regarding this issue. I have about 9 items available for download(preorders mostly) but it's not listed under download. When I click on Check for available download, a message with 'iTunes temporarily unavailable' appears but when I go to the iTunes store itself, its working just fine. I've already been charged twice for the same movie which Apple have kindly refunded me for one of them but I still haven't managed to download that movie yet. Apple says its a problem with my computer and given me all sort of ways to rectify the issue and still no hope. Everything else seems to work just fine including the actual iTunes store, wifi syncing and cable syncing etc. Can somebody help me with this if you know how to solve this problem or if you've had the same issue now or before?
    I am using the latest Software updates on my iTunes and these 9 items were purchased whilst on this new updates

    OH MAN! I had the same problem for so long! I was trying to get as much information and try as many different ways as possible. None worked for me and I am guessing none worked for you either. I will try and help you out! I hope this works for you!!!
    Click on your Apple ID > Type in your password > Scroll down to Purchase History > Click on it > If your account has red numbers higlighting a balance. You need to pay that first. Then you are hopefully free of that stupid security code crap! I hope this helped you!

    Click here for information. If the option to have the answers emailed to you isn't available or doesn't work(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section of that article.
    Without a rescue email address, you can't reset them yourself. Nobody on these boards can reset them for you.

    puchased music in itunes. but no file can be found. Have checked for available downloads but nothing available. Went to purchase again thinking i would not be charged again, but it warns me that i will actually be buying again and may have duplicates in library after purchase. Normaly after i purchase from itunes, it is a free download any time after, and on my other devices.
    Why can't itunes locate these files?

    It has always been very basic to maintain a backup of the important files and data on your computer.
    Use that backup to put everything back.

  • "Check for available download" "itunes store unavailable"

    Every time I click on "Check For Available Downloads" A window pops up telling me to check back later because iTunes store is temporarily unavailable. Though I can go in and buy stuff off iTunes still but I can't download it. My connections and everything are fine and I have run all my diagnostics and they've passed. This has been happening for months and nothing has worked. This isn't only happening on my Mac but also on my PC's.

    I know exactly what happened. You had an old download in your queue that wasn't fully downloaded that became unavailable. This same thing happened to me (no problem if i let things fully download in one sitting--just couldn't check for available downloads) and the apple techs could give me no answers for a very long time. Finally, one tech went in and analyzed all my purchased items and found I had some freebie tv show in my queue that I'd never allowed to fully download. It was no longer available and was causing an error. The program was removed from my queue and everything I'd lost for weeks immediately started downloading from the point I'd lost it. Write to iTunes help and SPECIFICALLY ASK them to check this, explaining that you've done everything else possible to try to fix it.

  • HT1725 I bought a song off of the itunes store on my iphone but it wont play.  I even tried to repurchase it but it says that I already purchased it.  I have restarted my phone and turned it off but it still won't download or play.  HELP!

    I bought a song off of the itunes store on my iphone but it wont play.  I even tried to repurchase it but it says that I already purchased it.  I have restarted my phone and turned it off but it still won't download or play.  HELP!

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your phone and re-download it via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on it, or the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking some people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

  • HT1725 When I click on a Movie I get the following "You have already purchased this item but it has not been downloaded. To download it, select Check For Available Downloads from the Store menu." Then get err = 11111

    iTunes quit unexpectedly during the download of a movie.  When I click on that movie now I get the following message: "You have already purchased this item but it has not been downloaded. To download it, select Check For Available Downloads from the Store menu."
    I follow the instructions, but the download still doesn't resume - err = 11111
    Any advice?

    Yeah, I am going to blast my iPhone for the 4th time today and pray this goes away. I had 6 apps showing updates, the 6 badge icon shows on the App Store on my iPhone and, having run them all, the 6 apps have two copies each on my iPhone: one that is the old version of the app and will not run and the other is a faded version of the app with an empty progress bar on the icon. Click those and you get an error message about connecting to iTunes, etc. as described in the article I linked to above.
    It gets stranger than this. If I install a completely NEW app, the 6 that are stuck mid-update heal themselves and appear with the new version only, however now completely different apps (Hold Em for instance - which I did not update and didn't need an update) will not launch "app name Cannot Launch" message comes up.
    Agh!

  • Cannot download movies using "Check for Available Downloads"

    I was downloading a few movies to watch when iTunes crashed. After starting it back up again, I tried to use the Store->Check for Available Downloads option. I keep getting the error message "Unable to check for available downloads. The network connection has timed out." I've tried signing out and signing back in, downloading from 2 different computers, using wired and wireless connections, and downloading from my account page. None of these has helped, and after contacting the iTunes help staff I received an email asking me for more info. I gave them the info and sent the email on Saturday and haven't received a response. Does anyone have a solution?

    They fixed it! I just got an email saying that a digital booklet I was trying to download had started the problem and was stopping many further downloads. They removed the booklet and I'm downloading fine now. They will reinstate the booklet into my download queue once all the other media finishes downloading. Use this link to report your problem. Hope you have success!

  • Cannot check for available downloads nor download media from iTunes store.

    Here's what I can do: 1) I can access the internet. 2) I can access and purchase media from the iTunes store. 3) I can stream radio through iTunes. 4) I can download podcasts.
    Here's what I can't do: 1) I cannot check for available downloads. 2) I cannot download purchased media. I receive the following message in a pop up window. "Unable to Check for Available Downloads. The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
    I have tried all of the following troubleshooting guides recommended by iTunes support without success:

    I have also removed my router out of the equation and connected directly to my cable modem so port forwarding is not an issue either. The only idea I have left is to call my ISP. Seems like a long shot. I know it is going to be something obvious.

    I just realized that I posted this in the wrong forum. If you are an administrator and want to move it, please feel free. Sorry.

  • I'm trying to download songs that was transferred via Carbonite, not getting message that states "Unable to check for available downloads, iTunes is temporally unavailable"

    I'm trying to download songs that was transferred via Carbonite, not getting message that states "Unable to check for available downloads, iTunes is temporally unavailable".  What do I do?  Any suggestions??

    Same problem, I have a season pass for Mad Men and suddenly cannot download, says iTunes is temporarily unavailable. Problem occurred before I updated to the new iTunes and afterwards, on two different computers. Here is what Apple had to say:
    "I have verified that the iTunes Store is functioning and accepting connections, which indicates that the issue is related to your internet connection, local network, or your local computer itself. This article outlines some of the likely culprits:
