  • When I manually add songs to iphone 4s many appear gray and won't play. How do I fix this?

    When I manually add songs to iphone 4s many appear gray and won't play. How do I fix this? I have the manually manage music button checked, and I can play them on itunes, but on my iphone they appear gray and won't play.  There doesn't seem to be any reason, as one song from an album will play, but the other 9 won't....

    Click here and follow the instructions.

    Hello enrique a.
    Instead of trying to re-invent the wheel on this one, take a look at an article such as this one to help you take care of these exclamations.  Basically, it means iTunes is unable to locate the file on your computer anymore.

    Hi Jackson,
    Since you have already done a restore of your iPhone, I would suggest that you now try restoring your iPhone to factory settings, set it up again and test before you restore your content. This article describes the process -
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

    Note - It is important that you follow this stop:
    Use iTunes to back up your device and transfer and sync any additional content to your computer.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • TS1424 I downloaded 2 songs and paid for them and now they won't play.  How do I fix it?

    How can I fix this problem?

    I just downloaded 11 songs and 4 don't work.  3 only play a few seconds and 1 doesn't do anything.  I'm afraid to delete them though, but they're still on file somewhere I guess then, right?
    Well, I just deleted them but when I go back to my purchases it still shows the "Downloaded" button that I can't click on.
    This is really aggravating.  Am I just not doing something right?  It doesn't help that I'm very tired lol.

  • HT1933 I have downloaded a song, but it won't play. How can I fix this?

    Hi,
    I recently downloaded a song and it appears on my songlist, but will not play when I press it. Just checked to see if I still had my email receipt, but I must have deleted it by accident.
    How can I get this resolved?
    Thanks,
    Annie

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • I downloaded the most recent version of iTunes. Now, it won't open. How can I fix this?

    Recently, I downloaded iTunes version 10.5.3. Now, I double click it on my desktop, and in the iTunes process appears briefly in Task Manager. It gets up to the memory usage where it normally opens, but now, when it gets to that point, the task disappears, and won't reappear. I've tried many times to reopen it, but the same problem happens every time. I have already reinstalled iTunes, then removed it completely and installed it again, and the problem persists. Is there any way I can fix the problem?

    Try following steps and test one at a time:
    1. Restart computer, right mouse click iTunes icon and select "Run As Administrator"
    2. If that does not work, check to see if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
    Close your iTunes.
    Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
    Now open itunes and see if it is working?
    If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
    MSCONFIG
    Hit ENTER
    Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
    Restart Windows.
    3. If that fails or you don't see ApsDaemon.exe in the Processes, refer to following article to remove SC files:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
    4. If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

  • HT1711 The song I just bought is saying it is corrupted and won't download. How do I fix this?

    Song is "Leaving Earth" from the Mass Effect 3 Original Soundtrack

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not downloading properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • HT1296 When I connect my iPhone 4 to my computer it says that there is no device driver. I click fix it now and it does nothing. How do I fix this so that I can transfer my pictures from my phone to my computer? Please help. Thank you

    I cannot get my computer to find a device driver to connect my iPhone 4 to my computer so that I can transfer my pictures from my phone to my computer in order to free up some memory on my phone. Can you please help me. I have used the troubleshoot method on my computer and it does nothing. I have a Windows 8 computer. Thank you for your help.

    Reinstall iTunes. Make sure you follow the instructions in this support document to the letter. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923.
    You may have some problems because Apple has not certified that everything works with Windows 8 yet.

  • HT4623 I recently updated to the iOS 7 on my iPhone 4.  The majority of apps that I have are in a "waiting" mode now, and are not usable.  How do I fix this?

    I recently updated to the iOS 7 on my iPhone 4.  The majority of apps say they are "waiting" are are not useable.  This has been the case for three days.  I have tried to turning my phone on and off, and that has not helped.  I have also connected to the internet in different locations thinking that it may be the speed, but this has not helped either.  How can I fix this problem?

    Can you delete the apps and try re-downloading them, one at a time?

  • Okay so my IPod touch 4 won't play music through any headphone I put into the port. I've tried it with 4-5 different headphones but it still won't work.  How can I fix this?

    Okay so my IPod touch 4 won't play music through any headphone I put into the port. I've tried it with 4-5 different headphones but it still won't work.  How can I fix this? This isn't the first time something like this has happened but it has never stayed this way for such a long time. If I have to send it in for repairs I will but I'm not sure if its under warranty

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
