ITunes just thoroughly ticked me off!!!!!
I had the error about a damaged library that others are having and I have the following problems that I want fixed as soon as possible.
1. My digital books ARE COMPLETELY GONE!!!! I even checked for available downloads and there was NOTHING
2. My "Purchased on iPod Touch" playlist is GONE It made a separate playlist that isn't automatically updated when purchasing songs. I will have to restart at 1 if/when i download another song through iTunes. I want to have a record of what I buy on my Touch but now it's all messed up.
This must get fixed. Somebody needs to step it up, I will also posting iPod Touch issues that are annoying me. What is up?

Is your library consolidated? If so, search for each digital booklets here: +C:\Documents and Settings\*User Name*\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Artist**Album+ !

So what playlist did disappear? The "Purchased" or the "Purchased on iPod" playlist? Are both gone?
Try this steps:
1. Open iTunes.
2. From the iTunes menu, select Preferences.
3. In the Preferences window, select the green Store icon.
4. In the Store panel, tick the button labeled B*uy Using a Shopping Cart*.
If that doesn't work, the playlist will re-appear at your next purchase. It will probably only contain that purchase and not you previous purchases.
The "Purchased" playlist, actually behaves as a normal playlist and you can add all 'Protected AAC' files to it.
Hope this helps!

I have a new iphone and went into Itunes and it said my new iphone needed a software update. I let it do this and now the apps that I put on won't work and when pressed just flash on then off the screen. I paid £20 for one of them so any help would be appreciated.

Just upgraded to latest iOS and my iPad does not come back up - the following appeared as the first thing after turning back on. It displays a line from the power/USB connector to an iTunes logo and then goes off and after some minutes comes back on. I cannot reset it or anything else. It is completely non-functional.

I just purchased an album off iTunes but it won't let me download one song...
I just purchased an album off iTunes but it won't let me download one song off the album due to a -100000 error. It tells me to check for available downloads on the "store" bar, and when I click it, the file still won't download. What should I do?~ Any advice would be appreciated. =^w^=
Hello TheCoddfish,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
So it sounds like you have a preorder you would like to download, but it is not downloading, or you dont have the option to download it.
Without knowing what the preorder was, and if it is released, I found this article named iTunes Store: About Pre-orders found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5714.
This part in particular:
Downloading a pre-ordered item
When a pre-order item becomes available, you will receive an email letting you know your pre-order is available for download.
If you've enabled iTunes to automatically download prepurchased content, then your pre-order content may already be downloaded to your library. If not, simply click the download link provided within your email notification, and your pre-order content will begin to download. Alternatively you can use the "Check for Available Downloads" feature in iTunes on your computer by choosing Store > Check for Available Downloads to begin downloading your pre-order.
To view, cancel, or see the expected release dates for your pending pre-orders
Choose Store > View My Appie ID, then click Manage Pre-orders, which located in the Settings section at the bottom of the Account Information screen in iTunes on your computer.
From the Mange Pre-orders screen, click the Cancel button to the right of the pre-order item you would like to cancel. You'll be asked to confirm your pre-order cancellation.
If the album is released and you still cannot download it, I would report the issue directly to the iTunes Store support.

My iphone and ipad is not registering when i conect it to the computer. It doesnt show up on itunes at all so i cant sync or back them up. I have repaired the itunes, iv switched my phone off and on and its still not working. What should i do?
Any one or a combo may help.
Give your devices a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot. Then try again.
Try a different USB port
Try a different cable
Is your iTUnes up to date? If not, update it.
If that doesn't work, (if you're on a PC) go into the control panel, add/remove programs and uninstall iTunes, Apple mobile device service, apple application support. THen redownload and reinstall iTunes and give it another try. -
ive just bought a ipod off my cousin it had loads ov apps on it what worked but ive tried to manually sync it and now none will work can any1 helpthanks
The apps and other content on the iPod did not transdfer with the purchase of the iPod. The lience to use them remains with the original purchaes. You should connect the iPod to your computer and restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and purchase and sync you own media.

Why won't iTunes just PLAY an album, in order, from start to finish?!
Very confused....I can't get an album to play through iTunes on my Mac anymore. It used to work just fine but now, no matter what I try, every time I try to play an album iTunes just picks one song at random from the album and plays that. It won't move on to the next one, even if I try to press the button to skip to the next track. It always seems to play the same track and won't let me do anything!
It's really annoying and I can't see what is different from before I downloaded the latest version of iTunes. Getting thoroughly disheartend with iTunes lately; wish I had never bothered downloading the latest version-it's horrible!
Can anyone out there help with a straight forward and not-too-technical explanation to help me to be able to play an album, from start to finish , in the order it was made without having to mess about? I am not used to the whole "Apple" way of working yet- previously had a PC with Windows Media Player which worked really easily. iTunes is infuriating me so far!
Thanks!Open iTunes and go to View>Show Sidebar and View>Show Status Bar. This will make the new version appear more like earlier versions. Then go to the Controls menu at the top, choose Shuffle and click "Turn Off Shuffle" (if it shows this).

My ipad 2 crashed last night and now its just turning on and off in a cycle
My ipad 2 crashed last night due to the battery being low and when i plugged it in, it showed thae apple logo and turned back on. Then it flashes to my homescreen for under a second and then just turns right back off again! I have tried rebooting it by holding down the home and lock screen at the same time but it just powers on and does the exact same thing again. It has been doing the same thing the whole night so I dont know what to do? Oh and when I plug it into iTunes, iTunes just tells me theres an error and the iPad wasnt synced, im really worried now so i need help Thanks
Hello francesca62,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
The following article has some troubleshooting steps for you to go through, specifically steps 5-7. Even though the title says it's for iPhone, the same information applies to your iPad.
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

I'm trying to update my iphone 4 and in order to compelte the restore backup from itunes i need to turn off the 'find my iphone' but i cant get passed the restore backup stage - what should i do?
Hi beckiewinter!
I have some information for you that may help you understand your iPhone's Activation Lock more thoroughly:
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
So in order to update your iPhone, you may need to turn off Find My iPhone. This can be done through the iCloud settings, and more information on those settings can be found right here:
iCloud - iPhone User Guide

Itunes just does not open - no error
itunes just stopped opening - no error message. tried software update...seems to install fine, but itunes still won't open
thanks. spyware scan was clean.
how do i make sure itunes is allowed through antivirus? also,regarding the files to be deleted, where are they located on PC?
The first thing I'd suggest is to get a good
antispyware checker and give it a go at your system.
Some recent spyware has been reported by other users
to shut down iTunes or prevent it from launching.
From user reports, Ewido seems to be the best at
catching it. You can download a free version of Ewido
here.
If that doesn't cure the problem, make sure that any
antivirus/antispyware application you have is set to
allow iTunes to operate. Some antivirus/antispyware
has been known to shut down iTunes. An upgrade to
iTunes or to the utility may have triggered the
problem.
If that still doesn't help, take a look at iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting unexpected
quits, freezes, or launch failures
If that still doesn't work, try deleting the iTunes
preference files:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
and
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local
Data\Application Data\Apple
Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
You might have to turn on "show hidden files" to find
them. (Right click "my computer", select open, select
Tools menu -> Folder Options. Select View tab, "show
hidden files" radio button is in the center scrolling
panel.) Delete them or if you want to be able to put
them back if it doesn't help, drag them to some other
location. This will force iTunes to run the setup
assistant the next time you launch iTunes. Note that
you'll have to go back and set any preferences you've
changed from the default.
If that still doesn't work, try this:

Ipod classic try to start but the apple just flashes on and off.
Ipod classic I try to start but the apple just flashes on and off.
I can't reset and it doesn't show it charging. Not recognized by computer.
It was working just fine in my car, I stopped for an hour, and when I came back it just started the flashing thing.
Anyone have any ideas?Reset it this way.
After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.
Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
If it is still not working.
Then Restore it using iTunes
Good Luck! -
My ipod touch will not charge or register in itunes. It keeps turning off and then shows the apple logo. I have tried holding down the button and plugging it in. It will show the red battery for a second and then turn off? Any other suggestions?
I have checked for problems with the connections, but from what i can see with the naked eye, nothing appears abnormal. It is very strange, and very sudden. It just stopped in the middle of a charge. The apple store is my next step. I just wanted to see if anyone on here had some extremely eye-opening solution or check. thanks though!
I'm also within warranty, so it's not a huge problem.
