ITunes: problems with buying music
when i want to buy a song, the iTunes could not download it because i do not have write access to media folder. How do i fix this? It tells me to change my permissions in the finder, but when i check, i did everything i could find.
From the Finder - select the iTunes Music Folder - Get Info - at the bottom of the Get... window is a icon of a lock - select the lock, enter your admin password to open the lock. Give you self 'read and write' privileges' - there is also an icon of a gear - select the icon and 'apply to all enclosed ....'
You should now have read and write privileges to the folder and able to add tunes.

Problem beim Musik kaufen...Problem with buying music
Hi
Produkthinweis: Ich besitze einen iPod touch mit 32 GB, den ich mir am 28.01.2012 gekauft habe. Es ist also ein iPod touch der 4. Generation.
Ich habe mir gestern eine Geldkarte für den App Sore bzw den iTunes Store gekauft und auch gleich das Geld aufgeladen. Danach wollt ich gleich im iTunes-Store auf dem iPod mit dem Musik kaufen loslegen. Doch auf einmal muss ich ich mich verifizieren, also diese komischen Sicherheitsfragen beantworten, weil ich angeblich zum 1. Mal einen Einkauf auf diesem iPod tätige. Das stimmt aber nicht... Ich habe bisher immer nur auf diesem iPod touch Musik und Apps gekauft und höchstens Mal mein Kennwort eingeben müssen. Außerdem habe ich das Gefühl ganz andere Fragen beantwortet zu haben.
Auf meinem Laptop kann ich übrigens mit iTunes ganz normal einkaufen...
Weiß jemand Rat?! Danke im Voraus.
Product information: I have an iPd touch with 32 Gb, which I have bought at the 28/01/2012. So it's an iPod of the 4th generation.
Yesterday, I bought a card, which load up money on my iTunes Store. I started with buying music at the iTunes store with my iPod. But it wasn't possible, because I had to verify myself and I haved to answer these questions of security, because I alleged to buy the first time in the iTunes Store... But that isn't true. I buy all my music with my iPod in the iTunes-Store!!!
I can buy normally music in the iTunes Store with my laptop.
Have someone an advice for me?! Thanking you in anticipationYou need to do as the message says since iTunes is verifying that your are yourself on the different device and that somebody else is not using your ID on the iPod.
To reset the security question:
Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
Next try contacting iTunes

ITunes problems with existing Music Library
Can someone please advise why since downloading the latest iTunes SW I now have 83 songs (at least two of these songs were purchased directly from the Apple on-line store) in my PC Music Library that cannot be ported to my iPOD.
I have tried to Authorise my PC with the Apple Server at least a dozen times now and each time it say's it OK yet I still have the problem highlighted above.
I am getting so annoyed that Apple can stop me listening to MY OWN music that I am toying with idea of dummping my iPOD and moving to a more Customer friendly MP3 device.
Rgds, John...I actually had about 5 on my Mac do the same - also purchased software from the Apple Store.
I managed to get them recognized properly by deleting them from the iTunes library (but not trashing the files) and then re-importing them in to iTunes, it seems to be related to the update process when 7.1 first loads. -

I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. As of now i realize this was a mistake. Starting on a new computer now. I cant get my music to transfer from the itunes folder on the old computer? I keep getting error "Can't Read from the source file or disk." Whenever I got to folder properties its always checked read only. But when i play the song it works just fine. Im sure this is just because I added music into itunes folder but is there anyway to fix it?
WMA files are 'window media audio' files, which is a Microsoft format. If you want to add them to your iTunes library on your Mac then you will need to convert them into a compatible format first. If you still have your windows machine then iTunes for Windows can convert them from WMA to MP3 format : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24158701#24158701
Or try a search for, for example, 'convert wma to mp3' to find programs to convert them. -
My daughter has been using my iTunes account to buy music and apps. I now want to set up a separate iTunes account for her, with a different login. How can we transfer the music and apps she has already bought to her new iTunes account?
Hello, thank you for your prompt answer. I did have an idea that Home sharing might be the answer but could not quite figure out how to do it. I have enabled home sharing in my iTunes account, put in username and password, clicked on creat etc. But the homs sharing icon doew not appear in the left side of iTunes. So I got stuck. Any further ideas?

I am still having problems with my music videos freezing (all purchased on iTunes) since the update. The first day of the update, no problems...played 6 hours of music videos and no freezing. Today...every single video froze!!! So frustrating! I rebooted, restarted, powered down and no help. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.
I don't know how to do this without using a mouse point.
This may help, http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000542.htm
As for question #2, you call tell how iTunes is sorting songs by the up or down arrow next to a header name.
Even the original order that the songs were entered or date added or last played can be sorted.
Much easier with a mouse or touch pad. -

Problem with trasferring music from itunes to Iphone 3Gs.
Hi
I have a problem with trasferring music from Itunes to Iphone and that is,
as soon as I finish transferring music to my Iphone, Itunes suddenly stops at the stage of where it says (at the top-centre of the screen), 'Sync Min's Iphone'.
Due to this reason, I've restored my Iphone a couple of times and reinstalled itunes but same problem occurs whenever I try to transfer music.
It appears music are successfully transfered since I could play the music on my Iphone but I wanna fix the problem since it's pretty annoying.
is there anything I can do about it?
Thanks
Message was edited by: Minsik ParkMake sure you have the latest version of iTunes (8.2.1?). If so, I'd reinstall iTunes, if the phone is otherwise working fine.
