ITunes Version Songs and Albums

What is an "iTunes Version" of a song or album? I can't seem to get an answer from anyone I know who owns an iPod.

I have been unable to purchase a "bonus" track on itms. The song is not designated "with album only" but when I click Purchase or Add Song, the reply is that the song is no longer available for purchase. Surely, the song is a bonus track only available with the album, but W-T-F? Why don't they tell me that? I was able to include the song in an iMix through which I could purchase the entire iMix list including that song, but when I created an alternate iMix, I couldn't.
I actually created my account so I could purchase this song which is not on the CD I already purchased. Between itms and Universal Music they're telling me that I need to buy this album again in order to qualify for the right to own this song.
I guess Universal Music definitely socks, I'm undecided on itms.

  • I have always been able to create playlists on itunes, then drag them to my ipod when it was plugged into the mac. I recently downloaded the latest version of itunes, and now I am unable to do that. I am able to drag songs and albums but not my playlists.

    I have always been able to create playlists on itunes, then drag them to my ipod when it is plugged into the mac. I recently downloaded the latest version of itunes, and now am unable to do that. I can drag songs and albums to the ipod, but not my playlists. It used to be so easy, am I missing something here?

    Plug your iPod into your computer, it will begin to sync. Now check to see if the playlists have been added.
    If not, go to the songs tab under your iPod when it is connected to iTunes, Unless you have checked "Sync all songs (or something to those words)" you should have an option on what you can put on your iPod. Make sure to check the playlists that you want on your iPod.

  • Why is iTunes automatically changing edited song and album information?

    Hi guys, I've seen this question asked several times but I haven't seen an answer or advice that specifically relates to the problems I've been having with my iTunes library of late.
    I've got a pretty big collection of music on iTunes - almost 1000 albums - and I'm pretty anal about the way it's stored and managed and I regularly change the song and album information to suit my own "house style". All my music was stored on a Dell laptop and was fine - I had no problems with changing and editing the information. I recently bought a MacBook Pro and shifted all the music files from the old machine onto the new one (a lengthy and frustrating process) and since then, I've had a lot of hassle in terms of amending and organising my iTunes collection. A lot of the music I've purchased from the iTunes store has reverted back to its original state, no matter how many times I've changed it.
    For example:
    Lana Del Rey's Born to Die (Deluxe Version). I've removed the "Deluxe Version" from the title but I quit iTunes or sync it with my iPod, it automatically adds it back. I've changed the information in the song info, I've even changed it in the sort info just to be sure, but it always changes back.
    The same with the Anthems Electronic 80s compilation. I want to call it Ministry of Sound: Electronic 80s and remove it from Various Artists (by deleting the album artist from the information). But after iTunes is quit or its been synced, the same thing happens. It appears as two albums on my iPod - a handful of tracks appear under the old title while the bulk of them appear under the new one.
    It's happening across loads of albums, all ones I've downloaded (the stuff ripped from CDs seems to be okay). I've done as much as I can in terms of the song info but no matter what I do, it just reverts back when the programme's quit or I sync my iPod. I don't know if it's anything to do with the fact they're in the Cloud or they've been imported from a Dell laptop or there's an underlying problem with iTunes (a couple of posts elsewhere on this forum suggest it might be the case) but it's really frustrating.
    I apologise for the length of my post but I wanted to be as thorough as possible to outline the problem. If anyone's in a position to offer me any advice, I'd be hugely grateful!

    A handful of others have complained about this recently.  Seems to happen to iTunes Store purchases only.  Somehow they are connecting back to the Store and refreshing label information.  There may be a solution but few seem to try experimenting with settings to see if something stops it.
    2014 discussion about edited tags for Store purchases reverting to originals - https://discussions.apple.com/message/26077896 - edited tags are still present in the media file but revert to the originals in the iTunes library file. Workaround is to refresh tags so media file tags are re-read and used in library file.
    Until then send feedback to Apple:

  • HT4061 I need to sync my iphone and ipad to my new computer.  I just downnloaded itunes in it.  my song and album files are not in the new downloaded itunes.  how do I import them in?

    I just downloaded itunes on my new computer which uses Windows 7. I need to sync my ipone 4S and ipad to it.  I noticed my complete song and album files are not in the new itunes.  how do i get them imported to the new itunes.  Would syncing my iphone and ipad do it?

    In iTunes, go to File>Add File to Library or File>Add Folder to Library.

  • How do I stop Genius from recommending songs and albums that are already in my iTunes music library?

    With greater and greater frequency, Genius is recommending songs and albums that are already in my music library. Up to 80% of the recommendations!. I am hesitant to give these suggestions a thumbs down, as I like the songs (afterall, I own them) and don't want to give the impression that I don't like the artist, genre, etc. as I appreciate how Genius works, when it does work.
    I have updated Genius and updated iTunes Match, to no avail.
    This quirk -- recommending music already in my library -- used to be a rare event. Now, most of the recommendations I get are for music I already own.
    How can I fix this?

    To be a little bit more accurate the said book sits in my Documents on my Macbook,  purchased through iTune for free in iTunes Store>Books. I can find it with Finder on my Macbook. It says it is in my Documents but it does not appear in the Documents folder in my Dock. Great! Even the iTunes Store says it is downloaded already. And why when I search for it with Finder on my Mac and click on the result does a window open up full of comoter language? I need some help.

  • Can see songs and albums in iTunes but can't play them

    Recently upgraded to OS 10.8, itunes 11.1.2, and OS7 on ipad and iphone.  I noticed only purchased songs were showing up now on OS7 devices and trying a variety of settings in tunes sync (sync all songs, sync only checked ones, etc) still wouldn't send over my privately owned (copied from my own CDs) songs. 
    Then in itunes on Mac, tried to play a song.  The album icon and song list are all there, but no song plays when clicking.
    My itunes folder is on an external drive.  All song and albums are there when I look in finder window.  The library is correctly addressed in itunes preferences.  I consolidated the library.
    In all cases, it looks like all songs are there in itunes, but nothing plays, and nothing syncs over to ipad or ipone.  Any ideas?

    After installing iTunes Match I have lost most of my songs and albums help?

    iTunes Match on the computer will not change the library content.  The iTunes Match 3 step process must complete on the computer based library before being associated with any IOS devices.
    It is always important to make a secure backup of your Song files prior to these activities.

    Bust3d,
    The gifting options on a mobile device are limited.  However, if you long into your iTunes account on a Mac or PC, you can gift a song you have already purchased.  Click the triangle and choose "Gift This Song."  See pic below.

    When ever I have to put my password in to buy download an app, purchase a song and album a please try again or unable to purchase/download the app or song pops up every time. The other day I pre-order an album and the error message came up but it said I already purchase the songs you were able to buy but it's not in music folder.

    In the detailed help for the event structure there is a link to caveats and recommendations for using event structures.  It is a good starting point.
    It is courteous to let the Forum know when your questions are related to a school assignment or homework.  We are glad to help you learn LabVIEW, but do not do your homework for you.
    You have learned the major disadvantage of the sequence structure: It must run to completion before anything else can happen.
    If you are building a state machine (typically a while loop with shift registers enclosing a case structure with one case per state) and having trouble with timing, then think about your requirements. Apparently you have some time delays, but under certain conditions you must terminate a delay/wait and do something else.  One way of doing this is to have a Wait state.  The wait state has a short delay, determined by the minimum time you can delay responding to a changed condition, and a check to see if the required elapsed time has occurred.  If the time has not elapsed, the next state is the Wait state again.  The state machine can repeat any state as often as necessary.  So a 15 second delay could be implemented by going to a Wait state with a one second wait 15 times. Any error or new command will see a response in no more than one second.

    I have the same problem, but don't expect Apple to help! I rang their help line and explained the situation and that the same experience is reported all over their forum and they would not assist unless I paid for a one year help subsciption.
    This company has lost the plot! They create software that universally will not work then expect customers to pay to have it fixed. Technically I should walk straight into the nearest apple shop and ask for a refund, as the device is no longer fit for purpose!
    Congratulations Apple for the best ant-promotional App on the market and your astounding lack of service ethos.

  • Hello, my iTunes dates are crashed on my mac, how can I download all my itunes match songs and save on my mac?

    Hello, my iTunes dates are crashed on my mac, how can I download all my itunes match songs and save on my mac?

    Hi mrmoo13!
    You have a couple of options for transferring your music library from one computer to another. First, you can download all of your music that is stored in the cloud on iTunes Match by following the instructions on this page:
    iTunes 11 for Mac: Access all your music anytime, anywhere with iTunes Match
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12284
    You can follow steps listed in the section right here:
    Play or download songs from iCloud
    You can play songs directly from iCloud, or you can download songs so you can play them when you’re not connected to the Internet.
    If a song is available in iCloud, it has a Download button next to it.
    To play the song, double-click it.
    To download the song, click the Download button.
    After you download a song to a computer, it remains in the computer’s iTunes library, even if you turn off iTunes Match.
    To only display downloaded songs in your iTunes library, choose View > Hide Music in the Cloud. This also hides any previous iTunes Store purchases you haven’t downloaded.
    For information about downloading and playing songs on an iOS device, see the documentation for the device.
    In order to make it easier to download all of your music, you can highlight all of the songs in your iTunes Match section and then click download, as mentioned in these instructions.
    You can also choose to transfer the music from your old computer to the new one by following the steps in this article, whcih will give you some other options for doing this transfer:
