ITunes won't let me download to my computer saying it is associated with a different Apple ID but it is not. Any ideas?

I have recently purchased a tv series off iTunes and for some reason my iMac won't let me download it to my computer. It aways comes up with the error message
'You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this computer with a different Apple ID for 17 days'
The only problem is I haven't changed my Apple ID on the computer and I purchased the items with my Apple ID that is associated with this computer. I had changed my password recently so I was wondering if this could cause the problem? Has anyone else experienced this and do you have any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks

Anyone else use this computer?

  • I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentione

    I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentioned since they were purchased. Is there any way to get the ipad music transferred to the computer?

    And they were definitely purchased from the iTunes store, they show on the account's purchase history (Store > View Account on a computer's iTunes, or you can view the last 90 days purchases via http://reportaproblem.apple.com) ?
    You could potentially log into the account on that computer's iTunes (Store > Sign Out to log out of your account, that will then change to a Store > Sign In option) and redownload them by clicking on the id towards the top right of the iTunes screen and Purchased on the popup :
    But that will potentially tie that computer to that account for 90 days : Manage your associated devices in iTunes - Apple Support
    Or do you have a different computer that you could redownload them on and then copy them over to that computer via a flash drive or memory card, and then add them to its iTunes via File > Add To Library ?

  • Changed apple ID now itunes won't let me download updates

    changed apple ID now itunes won't let me download updates.  It wants me to buy them again. How do I get itunes to recognize me.

    Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
    Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.

    Hello levon10
    Just delete the song and then go through the process of downloading the purchase again.

  • I have an older ipod, and it won't let me download apps. It says my iPod isn't compatible?

    I have an older ipod, and it won't let me download apps. It says my iPod isn't compatible? Then when i plug my iPod onto iTunes it says it's fully updated.

    You don't say which version of iPod you have but apparently it's fully updated to it's capability yet not to the level that newer iPods can go.  Some apps do require the latest IOS level.

    Yes. You can set the payment method to "None" once you log into iTunes on your PC/Mac. I have it set up this way.

    Re: error 4002 in itunes match do you have a solution? 
    Sep 23, 2012 10:08 AM (in response to matracaelcan)
    Hi All,
    I had this problem today myself, and was frustrated repeatedly by the '4002' error.
    I have literally just fixed the issue by doing the following steps:
    1: Go to the 'Store' tab and select 'Turn Off iTunes Match'
    2: Return to the 'Store' tab and select 'Update Genius'
    3: Wait for this to complete succesfully, the return to the 'Store' tab once more and select 'Turn On iTunes Match'.
    4: iTunes Match will now go through the motions and should succeed!
    I hope this helps

  • I redeemed a $15 iTunes gift card, but iTunes won't let me download anything. It keeps asking to sign in for billing and I do, but it says security code is invalid on debit card, when it's not. Has anyone experienced this problem?

    Hi. My name is Kim. I was wanting to know if anyone has gone through similar experience. I redeemed a iTunes gift card that was given to me. I'm told by iTunes store to sign in which I do, but then it takes me straight to billing I enter the correct three digit security code, then what happens it tells me invalid Cvv. Could someone please tell me this what does my debit card have to do with my having a redeemed ITunes card to use, and why doesn't let me download my music. I use a iPhone 3GS. Thanks

    Hi Kim ...
    Might not just be the security code > iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records
    Apple "verifies" your billing credentials with every transaction.
    what does my debit card have to do with my having a redeemed ITunes card
    If the total purchase price of the media including any applicable taxes or fees exceeds the balance of the redeemed card, then the difference is charged to your debit or credit card account.

  • Itunes won't let me download my song purchased on other device

    I downloaded a song on my ipad and now I can't get it on my imac. It gives me this message -
    You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 74 days.
    I am on my same account and find it crazy I can't get all my songs back on my computer without waiting for 3 months!!
    Please help

    Try this and see if it works. Select the song, under the Advance menu item (ok I am using version 6 under Mac OS, but might be the same for you), pick "Convert ID3 Tags..."
    Click on the box to change the "ID3 tag version" and try a different version. "None" is probably the best bet. Then exit and try to edit the stuff again, play the track and see if the info now sticks.

  • I have forgetten my security q answers and itunes won't let me download anything! HELP!

    Hi, this is the first time I've tried to download something off iTunes, my account defiantly has money on it and all is okay. Then, I go to type my password and the security questions pop up, I've forgotten both my answers and am now stuck! Does anyone know what I should do? I've tried the link but it won't let me change the questions as I need to know the answers.

    When you log into your account via
    www.appleid.apple.com
    and click on Password & Security there should be a link in blue saying
    "Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to...."
    Have you tried this?

  • HT203200 I have pre-ordered 2 albums, but iTunes won't let me download them. How do I download them?

    I have recently pre-ordered 2 albums with 3 gift cards i recieved for christmas. iTunes is not letting me download my 2 albums. I would like to have them in my library since they are already out and purchased.

    I tried cancelling the pre-order, and now iTunes thinks I've purchased the entire album, but only one song is available to download. What the heck is going on?!

  • Itunes won't let me download the latest version of itunes to my pc

    I have been trying to download the latest version of iTunes from the Apple website to my PC.  When I click on the Download icon, it goes to the page saying thank you for downloading iTunes, but it hasn't download anything.  I've tried downloading in Internet Explorer and in Google Chrome and get the same thing.  I've rebooted my PC and tried again using either browser and get the same result.  My PC O/S is Windows 8.1 64 bit.  I have no idea why this happening or how to fix.  Any advice or suggestions?  Thanks.

    Perhaps try downloading and saving a copy of the installer to a different PC. (If you're on a 32-bit Windows system, try to download on a different 32-bit Windows system.) Copy the iTunesSetup.exe installer to an external hard-drive, or a large-enough thumb drive or burn it to a CD-R. Carry the installer back to your PC, copy the installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install from the ExHD, thumb or CD-R.) Start the install by doubleclicking the iTunesSetup.exe file.
