Last track on recently purchased album asks for authorisation, I give it, message states I've already authorised the computer.

I've jut downloaded an album via itunes, the final track on it won't play. When I click on it I'm asked to authorise it. I give the correct password and ID but then am told the computer is already authorised. From what I can see the download works fine. I use my apple account only on this computer (though I have in the past used a previous computer, that hasn't been used to acccess any itunes account for some time).
Any ideas?

This can be a symptom of an incomplete download. Delete the current version of that track from your library then redownload it from your purchase history.

I recently purchased icloud storage for my iPad Air. I want to store photos in the cloud and learn how to retrieve them. I need help.

I recently purchased iCloud storage for my iPad Air so that I can store my photos in the cloud. I don't know how to do this. I want to be able to retrieve them as well.

Hello Janet
With that iCloud storage that you purchased, is used for mainly for iCloud Backup for your iPad Air, app data as in games and documents for like iWork and other apps that save data locally within the app. Dealing with photos in your Photo Stream they actually do not count towards that storage plan. If you don’t think that the storage is going to work for you, then cancel the upgrade you just made.

Recently purchased song asks for authorization

A recently purchased song requires authorization before playing. All other songs purchased at the iTunes store play fine; just this one song does not. If I follow the protocol I get the message that ' this computer is already authorized'. Tried several times, opened up the file in the Finder (Get info), to see if the account name appears correctly, but everything seems in order What to do? Anybody have an answer?

HT204085 why do I have to re-type the password for each item, like contacts, messages etc. every time I restart the computer?

Every time I start up the computer I get a pop up to type in my keychain password for each item. One for contacts and again for messages etc. Why do I have to do this every time at startup?

I recently transferred my ITunes library to an external hard drive. I made sure to copy all the data from the saved location. After the transfer I noticed that a lot of albums are missing the first song and some recently purchased albums are missing.

I recently transferred my ITunes library to an external hard drive. I made sure to copy all the data from the saved location. After the transfer I noticed that a lot of albums are missing the first song and some recently purchased albums are missing. Is there any way to recover the data? Thanks for any help.

I may have found an answer here:
http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive
They only thing I can assume is that my external hard drive was slow to start and iTunes defaulted to its old directory (see the last paragraph at the link above). However, once my external was recognized shouldn't everything have fixed itself?

How do I keep a record of the last track played in an album?

I have a lot of albums which have many completely individual pieces of music. For example Chopin ballades. I may only listen to a single track and not return to that album for several months. Is there a way to record the last track played in an album that show up next time the album is open? I'm thinking of something like the little blue arrow that shows which track is now playing.

For the Last Played column to make any sense, you need to click on the Last Played title itself, so that an arrow appears in the title, pointing down. If it points up, simply click on it a second time and it will point down. This puts everything in "last played" order, with the most recent played at the top of the list.
You cannot see the Last Played information on your iPhone, but a Smart Playlist may help. In this respect, an iPhone is just like an iPod Touch, and almost the same as an iPod Classic.
To create your style of Smart Playlist in iTunes (which is then Synced to your iPhone), make a note of the following:
A. Album name (copy it, ready to paste into step 4, below.)
B. The number of "plays" times you're going to set. For example, if most tracks have been played twice, and some only once, and you want to begin by playing only the tracks that have been played once, then choose "2". (It will make sense, in steps 7 & 8.)
Now perform the following steps:
Click on File/New Smart Playlist (on the top menu bar)
In the dialogue box that appears, change "Artist" to Album (from the drop-down menu)
Change "contains" to is (from the drop-down menu)
In the empty box, type (or paste) in the name of the album (it must be exactly the same, no errors. That's why I suggested copy-and-paste.)
Click on the + symbol at the end of the current line (this creates a new line)
Change "Artist" to Plays (from the drop-down menu)
Change "is" to is less than (from the drop-down menu)
In the third field, which probably has a 0 in it, replace the zero with 2 (the number you decided in the preparation step B, above)
Leave all the other boxes and fields as they are. (You may notice that the very first one at the top, has changed. This is normal, it now reads "match all the following rules".)
Click on OK.
The Smart Playlist should be automatically given the name of the "album name" field from line 1. You can change it if you wish, to whatever you prefer. It will contain only the tracks from your chosen album that have been played less than twice.
If the Playlist is not in track order, simply add the Track No. column to this Playlist and click on the title bar (as before) to make "track no." the decider. Then Sync your iPhone to iTunes.
Here's a list I prepapred. Notice only the eight songs that have been played less than four times, are shown. The other eight songs have all been played at least four times:
Notice too, that my track order is correct, and that the priority column is the "number" column on the left.
Finally; when the list empties out because all tracks have been played three times, simply edit the Smart Playlist to is less than "3".

I have an iphone 4s and recently purchased a 5 for my wife. When I plug her phone into our computer I'm asked if I want to set up as a new phone or back up. I'm not sure what to do her phone is already set up with an icloud account. Can I sync her phone with the player that I have installed and transfer content to her phone or will my phone be removed from the player?

Set up as new, since it newer has been connected to iTunes. Your iPhone will remain on iTunes. I have 4 different devices on my iTunes with no problems.
And regarding the sync - it will sync whatever you tell it to sync on iTunes.

So why don't you go to the developer's site and ask there? Word Lens is NOT an Apple product.

If your computer is on one minute before it freezes, than you have one minute to secure your serial number.
click the apple----->click about this Mac ------> click on version----> until you see the serial number. You may have to do this a couple of times if it freezes before you have all the numbers. A camera might help.
Good Luck

I recently purchased and iPhone for both my husband and myself. I connected his iPhone to iTunes and registered it and had no problem syncing. When I went to connect my phone to iTunes I registered it and it synced all of the info from my husbands phone onto my phone. In the process it deleted all my info I had on my phone (contacts, messages, email accounts, etc.). I redid all of my info onto my phone but now am nervous about connecting to iTunes for fear it will happen again. How do I connect to iTunes without having all my info deleted again?

I have been attempting to wipe/erase the iphone 4S I recently purchased...for the past 20 hours....I went to Reset in Settings and clicked on "Erase All Content and Settings"....At that point the phone the screen went dark except for a white circular symbol revolving - indicating something should be happening....
The instructions indicated that, depending on what needed to be erased, the process could take several hours. Even though the device had a Tom Tom application with all the maps of Europe etc (about 2GB) and there were several other apps on the device, it does not seem to me normal that the device would be still clearing into the next day - today!
Can you please help!?

Something has gone wrong. Turn your phone off, then force it into recovery mode & restore it:
Press the Sleep/Wake button & Home button at the same time, keep pressing until your phone turns off, then release.
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

Did you find a resolution as I'm having same problem?

Received a email from Apple stating that my Apple ID was used for a purchase not on my device. It had a link to cancel purchase but asked for my email and password which I gave then it wanted my credit card info! I didn't give that,what should I do?

Do you think this is just a way to get my credit card information?

It sounds like a phishing email. You can't "cancel" purchases. You've now given them your AppleID and password, so you should immediately change your password to something new and very secure.
Also watch out for suspicicious activity on your account.

Last track on recently purchased album asks for authorisation, I give it, message states I've already authorised the computer.
