My iTunes music download to iBook isn't syncing with my 2nd generation iPod Touch; why not?, My iTunes music download to iBook isn't syncing with my 2nd generation iPod Touch; why not?
How can I sync my iTunes download to MacBook with 2nd generation iPod?
What are you trying to do?
To sync media from your iTunes library to your iPod:
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
What happens when you try?
Was the 2G previously synced to another iTunes library/computer?

HT201272 why can't I re-download already purchased music from the itunes store?
why can't I re-download already purchased music from the itunes store?
What country are you in ? Re-downloading music isn't currently possible in all countries (the record companies need to agree to it for each country). If you are in a country where music can be re-downloaded, then if the tracks are still in the store then they should show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.

Why won't iTunes let me download or play my matched and uploaded music?
According to iTunes, I have 5,009 songs now available in iCloud. Most of these were either matched or uploaded. They are not stored locally on my PC, as I use an external hard drive for that, and it's not hooked up right now. I want to listen to some of my music on the PC.
When I open iTunes, the iCloud status reflects that songs are matched or uploaded, but there is no download icon next to them -- the only songs with that icon are ones that I originally purchased from iTunes. And there are also many songs that were purchased from iTunes that also don't have a download icon next to them. Everything has an exclamation point next to it, reflecting that my external hard drive isn't connected. And if I double-click any of the songs that don't have a download icon (most of them), I get the standard message that iTunes can't locate the song.
I've tried turning Match off and on multiple times, and also updating Match. Tried exiting iTunes and reopening. Nothing helps. In fact, every time I turn Match back on, it asks me if I want to add this computer to iCloud -- as if I haven't added it 10 times already.
Match has been working fine on my iPod.
Here's what I'm seeing, just to illustrate -- you can see that there is a download icon next to the songs in one album, which was purchased, but nothing netx to the otehrs, which are all matched or uploaded:
I'm going nuts. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on or what I'm doing wrong?I agree with Michael. What's happening is because you broke the link to your external drive. As far as Match is concerned, you still have all of those songs available to you locally.
If you've never created a new library in iTunes, it's easy and painless. Switching back to your main library after you hook back up your external drive is easy too. On a Mac you just hold down the option key when launching iTunes to get the prompt to either create a new library or to link to one you already have - simple as that.
For what it's worth, I set up a second library after enabling iTunes Match. All I put in it is new music I want added to the cloud. It saves me a lot of time and if I really want a copy of the songs locally in my main library, they still show up via Match as downloads, so I can grab them anytime. -

I've just bought an album and downloaded it,went to sync it to my ipod shuffle and it doesn't appear in the album list to sync, yet it is in the music library? why is it not available to sync?
This sounds similar to the problem where new purchases will appear in playlists, but not the main music source, suggesting that iTunes is making a hash of the indexes. Somewhat bizarrely the solution for that one seems to be to download the current free Single of the Week, maybe it will help you too.

Why in the heck can I not download an HD video if my monitor isn't capable of displaying the movie. My iPhone can and will be downloaded to the phone. So why stop me from downloading the movie? Have I lost this freedom to download HD?
Never mind. I bought the movie through my 4S phone.
iTunes is beginning to really suck with their latest version. -
My HP lap top downloads all my music to the windows media player, my itunes, as well as HP connected. Is this taking up 3 times the space on my computer as it would if it only just used one? I only want music on my itunes, but it puts it in all 3.
when I go to the youtube, the WMP pauses the music by itself, and when I close the youtube, the WMP resumes the music byt itself!

I have bought several music from iTunes and now I cannot find them in my library. The same goes for music that I have ripped from my cds. What gives?! Why doesn't the music stay in the iTunes library like it does in Windows Media. There is music that I cannot get again and this is not acceptable.
Your iPod can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time. If you try connecting the iPod to a new iTunes library or PC, you won't be able to add any new content to it until you choose the Erase and Sync option that you are prompted with when you plug it in or restore the iPod if that option doesn't appear.
If you have content on your iPod that needs to be copied back over to your iPod, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to you can recover these contents and moved them back over to your iTunes library.

I am trying to download non iTunes music directly to my tablet as I don't have a computer to download the music to before syncing with my tablet. I go to a web site that has mp3 music that I can download but it only plays while I am connected. I would have thought that from the safari browser I could have mp3 files open in the music app Locke it does for PDF files opening in iBooks.
I would rather not have to bother downloading another app when the functionality is already there, just does not appear to be working.Thanks. Such is life.
I hope apple realizes that there is a whole group of people who don't have pc's and that cannot use iTunes to upload music to their tablets and phones and changes this soon. -
HI
i updated to ios 5 today on my iphone 4 much to my dismay it cant stream radio apps i paid for anymore because it somehow HOGS the internet, but yet when i tried to play one of the multiplayer adventure games it is fine. i dont know if its an INDIVIDUAL app issue whereby i have to enable or disable something or something within the settings to do with the itnernet i need to change?
i cant even download apps on my iphone either it gives an error reading something along the lines of my internet; i connect at home with wifi and successfully stream music radio apps through my home speaker system; or i did do so before updating to this TRASH!. so i'm sure you can understand why i now ask to remove ios5 otherwise there is no point in me keeping the iphone, i have one year left on my mobile contract with orange to pay for.
i need to perform a downgrade, i have ONE back up from july which would be the ios4 version if i restore it using this back up file in itunes, would it definately remove the ios 5 and put the ios4 backon my iphone ?
LorrieYou can NOT downgrade iOS.
That said, millions people have updated to iOS 5 without experiencing the problems you report. Why don't you try some basic troubleshooting before you resort to drastic measures.
Restoring from your backup will NOT revert the phone to iOS 4.
First, try to reset all settings. This will re-set the network settings and clear any personalization (wallpaper, custom assigned ringtones, etc.) but you will not lose any data.
Then, try a simple re-set. If that doesn't work, try restoring from your last backup. If that doesn't work, Erase all content and settings and set it up as a new device. It's possible one or more of the apps you are trying to use -
why does iTunes keep giving me bogus error messages. "Your internet connection is not working, check your connection and try again." My internet is working fine. iTunes is not working and will not allow me to download tunes.
This my sound too simple, but I just kept clikning on the arrow next to the selected music and it finally "Kicked" in.

Why won't itunes work with windows 8.1? i tunes can not locate my music.
Why won't windows 8.1 let itunes locate my music? I deleted and downloaded, still won't do it. But like majic after I installed windows 8.1 my computer had a XBOX music player appear, that found my 3200 songs and it was able to play the entire library no problem. Any ideas on how i get itunes to start working with windows 8.1?
Hi zachwill10,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
To resolve this issue you may need to uninstall iTunes and all of it's components, and reinstall the latest version as explained in this article:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open

I hope this information helps ....

HT1751 Why can't iTunes handle a music library on an external drive?
I put all my music files on an external drive and imported them into iTunes. So far so good. The first time you run iTunes while the drive is disconnected - all your songs suddenly have that dreaded exclamation point next to them. Yes, while the drive is connected, I can still go to any song and double-click it to play; but the vast majority of songs stays "exclamated" and greyed-out. Shuffle ignores them. Even if I use some method to re-recognize all my songs, next time I open iTunes without first attaching the drive, it'll all go down the drain again.
Apple - this MacBook air is great but it only comes with 256 GB of built-in storage. I HAVE to use an external drive in order to have my music library. Why can't the MacBook recognize the drive, remember it, and know when it's connected and when it isn't?If you mistakenly open iTunes with the drive disconnected, close iTunes, connect the drive, open iTunes, then visit iTunes > Preferences > Advanced and reset the media folder to the external drive.
Better yet is to move the iTunes library folder into the root of the external drive as <Device>/iTunes, then connect to it by holding down option as you start iTunes. Once iTunes "knows" your library is on the external drive it will complain of a missing library when you try to start with the drive disconnected. Cancel the warning, connect the drive, start iTunes.
For maximum portability you should set the media folder to <Device>/iTunes/iTunes Media and consolidate the media to that folder. You should then backup the drive to another for security.

You can only sync everything with your one syncing computer/iTunes library. Yu can:
- Make this your syncing computer by:
Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
- Use the manual method to copy music and videos from any computer/iTunes library to the iPod. See the manual method included here:

Paid for (not from Itunes store) music downloaded not showing up in library as usual. Imported CD also not appearing as usual. What gives?
I have seen 3 potential solutions in this forum
1) If you are using iTunes Match Store > Update iTunes Match
2) Logging out of itunes store and logging in again
3) Downloading Free single of the week - no idea why this should work but people have reported it does -
Why do my itunes downloaded movies get suck frequently
Why do my itunes downloaded movies get stuck during streaming when my other accounts, i.e. netflix and amazon prime have no problems?
Is their really no solution to this problem? That would be really disappointing.
I have newly installed iTunes software on a new machine, and the iTunes software is broken from the beginning.
I purchased my music through the iTunes store because I thought it would make my life easier. It is sad to find out that this is not the case.
