ITunes won't play one song only on my new album it keeps asking me to verify my computer just for that one song. Anyone know what's up?
I have just used iTunes for the first time. I bought an album from the i store. It downloaded to my PC. I can play all the tunes except one. For that one it keeps asking my to verify my computer even though it is already verified. It plays all the other 13 tunes on the album, so I don't understand what is wrong with that particular one. Any ideas?

I am trying to open iTunes on my mac. But a box pops up saying "The folder iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissions for this folder". Anyone know what that means? I've had my computer 2 years and its never had a problem opening it
I've already right-clicked on the application, clicked "get info", and changed it so all people listed in the "Sharing & Permissions" section have the "read & write" privilage.
The error message is referring to your iTunes library, not your iTunes application.
You need to check and fix the permissions of the iTunes folder in your iTunes library. This is by default located in your "Music" folder.
Select the folder Music > iTunes in the Finder, right click on it or Ctrl Click and click "Get Info". At the bottom of the contextual window thatwill pop up, disclose the Sharing and Permissions brick, change your status from Read only to Read & Write. You may need to click the padlock icon to make changes. -
Hello, I imported song from a CD onto my Macbook Pro and now I would like to transfer the songs onto my IPhone 5. I can't figure out how to do that, does anyone know how I would be able to do this?

How do you get songs into a Smart Playlist...? Also, when I select the music tab on top, there is no iphone button or anything that says sync to iPhone. That's where I get confused
When you set up a Smart Playlist, it automatically populates the list with songs. You don't have to do anything. Now, you may not have set it up properly, meaning your set up fails to recognize any songs.
If you just want to put music in a Playlist, just create one, give it a name. Then drag the music from the "music" list to the playlist. It copies the information there. And when you sync the Playlist to your iPhone, all the music goes.
It's truly easy, but there is a bit of a learning curve until you're good at it. Keep asking questions here, everyone will help you. But do read the Apple documents, they lay out pretty straightforward. -

All of a sudden, my iTunes won't play music.
All of a sudden my iTunes won't play anything in the store or my library. Updates are done and my windows computer is authorized. It has worked fine in the past and then all of a sudden, I click play and nothing plays. I can play music and video in other programs except itunes. Volume is up also. It won't play at all. Any suggestions???
I would suggest first,
looking for the files (not in iTunes but on the desktop. If you find the files they've simply been removed from iTunes. - If you can't find the files they've been erased and there's not a lot that can be done.
Removing files from and iPod is another question. Firstly, it IS difficult, but it can be done. There are numerous tutorials on the web on how to do it.

I am using an iMac with Yosemite os. I have one song in my iTunes library of thousands of songs that won't play. It gives the error message that the computer is not authorized and a window to sign in followed by another window to authorize. When I try to authorize the computer it tells me it is already authorized (which I already knew) and the song still won't play. Does anyone know what this is about?
Hello vickifrombenicia,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. This symptom usually occurs when a song was accidentally purchased from a duplicate or separate Apple ID. Let’s check to make sure that you are authorizing with the correct account name (for this specific song), even if you feel very confident that you are. For more information, see this resource:

http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203160
Authorize using the correct account name
The items you're trying to play might have been purchased using a different iTunes Store account. To determine which account was used to purchase an item, follow these steps:
Select a purchased song in your library and choose File > Get Info.
Click the Summary tab. Note the Account Name that appears in the list. This is the account name (Apple ID) you'll need to use when authorizing your computer to play this purchase.
Note: The account name that appears is the one you used when purchasing the item and does not change if the account name (Apple ID) changes.
If you've authorized the Apple ID that is shown in the Summary tab, you can check the purchase history for that Apple ID from Store > View My Account. If your purchase history does not reflect the purchase of the items in your iTunes library, consider any other Apple ID you may have created, and authorize the computer for your additional Apple ID.
If you’ve followed the steps above and the issue persists, you can try the additional steps outlined in the article.
Cheers,
Matt M. -
Some songs that I've bought on iTunes won't play on my iPhone 3GS even though they used to and they will still play on iTunes. Anyone know what I can do to get these songs to play on my iPhone again? Please help!
No, I haven't figured it out. And no one from Apple has contacted me to help. Very frustrating. Sure makes me want to not buy music on iTunes and just buy CD's.
Do you have a 3GS too? Maybe it's something with that phone?? -
Moved Library from one Mac to another. iTunes won't play tracks in order.
Hi
I moved all my iTunes music from my Mac Pro to my MacBook Pro by simply moving the "iTunes" folder from one to the other. There wasn't anything in the MacBook Pro iTunes folder so I just deleted it and replaced it with the one from my Mac Pro.
However although all looks just right in the iTunes browser when I open it up, unfortunately iTunes won't play the tracks in order.
If I play a track on one album when it comes to the end of that, it doesn't continue with the next track on that album, but rather skips to the first track of a later album.
I wonder if anyone has any suggestions for how I might remedy this?I don't use it, no. I've been reading about it recently, and it was an example of where the quality of a Song can change if it is downloaded from iTunes Match.
I've used Home Sharing though, as follows:
1. Copy music from CD to iTunes on Windows PC
2. Transfer music from Windows PC to iMac using Home Sharing
I do this becasue the iMac doesn't have a optical drive. I haven't checked to see if the quality has changed, but I assume it just copies the files so it wouldn't make sense if the quality had changed. -
ITunes won't play songs. Nor even the song samples at the iTunes store.
My sound system is working fine. Commercial CDs play in WMP.
I downloaded latest version of iTunes along with Quicktime. Download/install: no problem. I tried to get some m4p songs I'd saved on a CD to load back into iTunes, and while 1 or 2 appeared in iTunes, they would not play. I click on the spkr icon next to the song...no response. They would not transfer from the CD to iTunes. I gave up trying. (Same thing happens at the Music Store with its 30 second samples.) Doesn't make any differene what song I select. My computer is working fine; I get on the net with no problem. I do not get any error messages. The Diagnosic check from iTunes shows everything normal re my computer settings and network settings. (I'm using XP).
I tried a "Repair" install of iTunes...didn't help. I uninstalled iTunes and re-downloaded the setup.exe file, then reinstalled iTunes. Didn't change anything.
At the moment I've no songs in iTunes--when I call iTunes up, I am taken directly to the Music Store where I have a current, functioning account. IS THAT NORMAL WHEN YOU'VE NOT SET UP A PLAYLIST? And am I correct that itunes uses Quicktime to play iTunes songs?
I have 3 CDs I made of iTunes songs. One was burned with Roxio Easy Media Creator 7.5. Another was burned with XP itself. A third was burned with iTunes and it will play in my car CD Player and in WMP 11 in my computer. iTunes will NOT play any of the three. If I put a commercial music CD in my computer, iTunes loads all into itself the songs and will play them.
It's a problem when an uninstall and reinstall of iTunes does nothing. I also just ran a Repair Install of XP last night. Went mostly OK; I got a messsage: "Windows could not load the installer for tape controller." I clicked OK as I don't use any tape device. There was another message: "The CinePlayer Decoders have not yet been activated. You must activate the product before use. Please run the player that included these decoders in order to activate the product". Again I clicked OK. I don't know what those cine player decoders do or what a cine player is. Movies? I checked my movie files--they played fine in WMP. I did not copy the CDs (any of them) to my HDD before trying to get them into iTunes but...would that have mattered?
What to do? I would like to get my Music Store songs back into iTunes from my CDs. Hope a clean XP install is not necessary.go into iTunes Preferences-->iPod
change Auto Synch to Manually Synch -
My old computer died just after I transferred iTunes via external HD. When I transferred the content from the HD to the new computer, most songs won't play. Message is "Can't identify source". Sharing was on in the old computer when it died.
Is there no ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM?

i added some songs to my itunes but now my itunes won't play the songs - it says it can't locate the song although the Itunes match is turned on and it says all of my songs are in the cloud - anyone have any thoughts
Did you delete the hard copy of the songs from your computer after you uploaded them?
If so just highlight the said songs and delete but do not check the box that says delete from iCloud and your songs should play fine.
This happens when the original file is moved from the location that itunes was looking for it at and if you did this because you uploaded it then it will still be in the cloud you just need itunes to read from cloud and not think it's supposed to be finding the original file -

ITunes won't play song I purchased. Say's Computer not Authorized
I just bought 9 songs in a row on iTunes using the same account. 8 of the songs play without problem, but whenever I try to play the 6th song I purchased, I get a message saying that my computer is not authorized to play the song and asks me to enter my Apple ID and password to authorize it. I've entered my Apple ID and password 10 times now. Every time I get a message saying that I've authorized 3 out of the 5 devices I'm allowed to authorize and then it proceeds to play the next song on the playlist, NOT the one I'm trying to play. When I try to play it, I get that same error message saying I need to authorize it - even though I just did so. Beyond being out the $1.29 and feeling a bit scammed, I'm pretty frustrated at this point. What gives? Anyone know what the issue is and how to fix it?
Delete the song and re-download it.
