Itunes will not allow me to add newly purchased songs to my ipod classic, i have no problems with adding free podcasts but anything that i have purchasedd when i drag it over to ipod the little red circle with line through it stops me. what has gone wrong

i just started using this netbook for itunes at first it wouldnt let me purchase anything just free podcasts etc but i got that sorted it was just a matter of resetting the security questions because i hadnt made a purchased from this computer before. now it is allowing me to purchase no problem but itunes will not let me add my purchases to my ipod classic??? i can add all the free podcasts i want but anything that has been purchased is blocked from being added.my ipod show up in itunes but only as a summary thing i cant actually look through my music on the ipod in itunes on this computer

  • ITunes will not allow me 2 add more than 3 songs at one time in2 my library

    iTunes won't allow me to add more than 3 songs at one time into my library. I just want to select a number of songs in 'My Music' folder on my pc and then add them in one go. I used to be able to on older versions of iTunes, but now it will only let me add 3 songs (using the 'add file to library' option), and no more then one (using the 'import' option). It's just very annoying as it takes aaages to add songs into my library, when it shouldn't. if anyone knows how to overcome this, please let me know! Thanks

  • My App Store icon keeps displaying the little red circle with the number 4 and when it is opened to the updates tab there are no app to update. The page displays "All Apps Are Up to Date". This just recently started an occurs on both my iPad2 and iPhone5

    Why is this happening?

    I've seen reports of this happening when updates have been issued for apps that make them only work on iOS 7, users of earlier versions of iOS get notified that there are updates pending but when you actually go into the app store updates function it realises they don't apply to you because you are on an earlier version of iOS than what the new versions  require.
    In fact I just had a very similar experience on my iPod touch with iOS 6, in App Store app it flagged 7 app updates in red badge but when I clicked on the Updates button it only listed two  apps to update, once they'd been applied the outstanding updates badge disappeared.

  • There is a little red circle with a 2 in it over my iWeb icon

    Hi There,
    I have a rather strange problem and I am a bit embarrassed by it, because I don't know what it means. Anyway when I open iWeb 09, there is a little red circle with a little number 2 in it appears over the iWeb launch-bar icon.
    See this screenshot for a more detailed explanation: https://files.me.com/jasongtelford/otc2kg
    Can someone please tell me what this means because I have looked every where and I cant find out. I am beginning to think that there might be something wrong with my iWeb
    Also can you please tell me how to find whatever thing it is that it represents

    Thanks so much for telling me. I have now figured it out thanks to you LOL it was to do with the comments on my blog

  • ITunes will not allow me to put songs on my Ipod...

    I updated my itunes and ipod and everything. I've had my ipod for a year now and have never had a problem like this. I drag my songs from my music folder onto my ipod itunes area and it says it's putting it on my ipod but when it finishes the song(s) are nowhere to be found. I have like 2500 songs on my ipod and numerous videos so it's not like I've never done this before. It only happened when I updated to the new iTunes so I figured I'd uninstall it and put back the old itunes I had which was iTunes6.0.5 and I get this error now when I try and open it:
    [IMG]http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f161/puhpuhplaya2/itunes.jpg[/IMG]
    Can anyone either please tell me how to fix that error or tell me how to fix the problem with the new iTunes because I'll re-install it if someone can help. Thanks.

    I installed itunes 06 and now it will not allow me to put my purchased songs on my ipod. I get the notice that my computer is not authorized. Yet, each time I try to authorize it, I receive the notice that authorization was successful and there is only one computer authorized. I never had this problem before I installed itunes '06. Can anyone help? It sounds like the same problem the person before me had.

  • New iTunes will not allow me to manually sync music to Iphone 4s

    I had to change my computer's hard disk which is a mac, I updated itunes as I had done before with my other hard disk, but now my itunes will not allow me to manage anything in my iphone 4s. I cannot manually sync music to my iphone as I used to, not even the option "ADD TO" appears when you click on the "On this phone" tab. I was wondering what I have to do for my itunes to recognize that it is my phone.

    It gets stuck at preparing to update every time I try.

  • Premiere Elements 12 will not allow me to add any more 'Default Text'

    Premiere Elements 12 will not allow me to add any more 'Default Text'. Being using it fine up until today! Created over 80 words so far for subtitles but for some reason it wont allow me today!!!

    Dave
    Thanks for the follow up. Interesting result.
    What is the specific Music Score that you used in the Premiere Elements 12/12.1 Mac Soundtrack that was limiting you in the number of words that could be included as text in the project's opened Titler?
    Please confirm
    a. Working in Expert workspace or Quick workspace?
    and
    b. Was the 12.1 Update in effect before and after you observed that the Music Score soundtrack removal resolved the issue of number of words limit in the Titler?
    and
    c. Did the Titler problem exist if you replace the Music Score soundtrack with a non Music Score music file?
    and
    d. If you moved the Music Score soundtrack to one of the numbered Audio Tracks, did the Titler problem exist?
    If you have no Music Score soundtrack in the project, create your title of 80 plus words in the Titler, close the Titler, and then bring the Music
    Score soundtrack to the project's Soundtrack, does that strategy work for you?
    The above information will help me to think about what happened in your case and give me more insight into how to prevent it happening to
    you in future projects.
    Thanks.

  • Ipod Mini will not allow me to add any songs.

    Ok so i have a Ipod Mini.. It worked PERFECT until my last update. My itunes is fully updated (1.4.1). I was about to drag my new songs to my Itune Playlist, and it wouldnt let me. As soon as i would let the song drop in the play list this would come out "file:/C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/admin/Shared/T,does not seem to be a valid podcast url. Pleasecheck that you have entered the correct URL and try again." I am not sure what my podcast URL was..And i dont really know where i can view my podcast url so i can fix it ..
    please help me !! ^_^
    thanks guys!

    "my ipod was linked to another computer when i downloaded itunes onto my lap top it will not allow me to add songs to ipod mini without deleting all the songs can any body give me a simple remedy(ipod is linked to anotheritunes library do you wish to link to this library)?"
    After you click "no" to that message, use one of the suggestions here to get the music from your iPod back to iTunes.
    Music from iPod to computer.
    There's also another method I've seen posted. I've successfully tested this across several different Windows PCs.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    However it appears that no playlists or any other info such as ratings/last played etc will transfer.
    If this is important to you, you may want to use other options.
    There's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer.
    Once you are sure that the music is safely back in iTunes (and not before), you can click "yes" to that message, associate the iPod with your new iTunes installation and start using the iPod and iTunes as normal.

  • Somehow my itunes started a new library and I lost my old library. Itunes will not allow me to sync new music to my ipod without deleting stored music from ipod. How can I start using this new library and sync the new music without losing existing music.

    Somehow my Itunes started a new music library and I lost the old library.  Itunes will not allow me to sync new music from my computer to my Ipod because it is now in a different library. Itunes wants to delete all my Ipod music before sync any new music. How do I work around this. I think this happened during Itunes Upates.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

    Recently upgraded Mac OS to 10.5.5 - have an older G4 which is max'd out upgrade-wise - both processor and OS. At present Safari is 3.1.2. Itunes is 9.2.1. Itunes will not allow me to connect to store - says it requires Safari 4.0.3 - however, when I try to download Safari 4.0.3 or newer it says it requires an older version of the OS. What to do?

    Update v10.5.5 to v10.5.8
    Download and install the  combo >  Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo Update
    Then restart your Mac.
    That should update Safari for you to 5.0.6 and that should help with iTunes.
    If necessary, after updating to v10.5.8, you can use the standalone Safari installer here >  Safari 5.0.6 for Leopard

  • Itunes will not allow me to change the installation drive...

    I have a PC with a hard drive that previously was partitioned into C: and D: segments. I have since removed the D: partition. itunes thinks it is still installed on the D: segment and keeps trying to perform downloaded updates there. My current D: drive is now a DVD ROM. When trying to install itunes updates, it will not allow me to change the destination. When I try to change it, I get the message "The volume D: is currently unavailable. Please select another." Then it gives me the "Finish" screen and doesn't allow me the option of changing the drive. SO... I tried uninstalling itunes. itunes will not allow me to uninstall it either. Please help.

    Even though you're getting a slightly different error message, I'd try the following user tip:
    "Invalid drive X:\" install errors

  • Ios 8.3 will not allow me to add a contact to group message

    ios 8.3 will not allow me to add a contact to group message.  When I touch "Details" on a group message (says "Group MMS" at the top), THERE IS NO OPTION TO ADD CONTACT.  Why not?  iPhone 6.

    I had tried that previously with no results. So, I changed the password with the provider. Next I resubmitted the ID and password, ignoring the Yahoo button, but instead choosing the Other button. It was successful. Sometimes it's necessary to change the playing field, rather than put up with the potholes. Thanks for your help.

  • HT201320 my vip will not allow me to add contacts. Suggestions?

    vip will not allow me to add contacts. Suggestions?

    If you open your Contacts app and do a search on that newly added contact, does it NOT appear?
    Try doing a device reboot and see if the contacts appears after.  Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most glitches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.

  • HT1349 I have multiple albums that I've purchased that iTunes will not allow me to play stating they cannot locate the source. I then tried going into available downloads in iTunes to see if I needed to download it again, and iTunes tells me it is already

    I have multiple albums that I've purchased through iTunes, and iTunes will not allow me to play them stating they cannot locate content.I tried going into iTunes Store and look for available downloads, but the store shows it's already downloaded. It's a lot of music i've bought and can't play. How do I fix this?

    Forget the pad for a moment and just think about I tunes on your computer.  Every now and then( 3 times over 6 years) when doing an I tunes upgrade, I tunes seems to lose track of some of my music files.  They show up in the I tunes listing, but when you try to play, it cannot find the source.   The cause is always that I have somehow moved some or all of the music to a library that is outside of the set of libraries I have dragged into I tunes.
    On your computer, search for one of the songs.  All the missing ones are probably together, and when you find one, you will find the rest.  When you find it, note the directory  and file path to where it lives, then add that path to your I tunes
    Ibarra.
    Note, the original listing will still be in I tunes, so you will get double listings for theses songs, and no easy way to tell which is the valid ane and which is not, other than the ! Symbol when it cannot find the file.  I know of no good way to get rid of the duplicate listing except manually going through and deleting them.
    One you get them back into your I tunes library, they will sync and play fine.
    Second side effect,  if you are streaming to atv, and it comes accross one of those entries that leads nowhere, it simply stops streaming, and you have to restart the play.
