Not possible to download purchased songs

I bought some songs recently on my iphone (iTunes) but when I tried to find them on my laptop today (under purchased) there was no option for "music", only apps and books. What can I do? It would be really nice to have the purchased songs on my laptop as well. I have bought some about a year ago, but the latest buy was only a week and a half ago.

Hello Lindster,

  • Not able to download purchased songs

    Everytime I try to download the songs I purchase, I receive an error messaging telling me my network connection has timed out. How do I fix this?

    Some folks have had luck with setting their time zone correctly in Windows.
    You have to be an admin, click on the time in the lower right corner for most PCs.

  • Not possible to download purchased license for Photoshop Elements 11 on PC with Windows 8

    I've no idea what to do now. I bought a Photoshop Elements 11 license and started downloading the Akamai installer program. In the instructions it says that Akamai will start downloading Photoshop Elements automatically but it didn't. I then tried downloading the two separate files and put them in the same folder, but when I double-click the program file I just get the message that the filing part of Ph. El. 11 is missing and that I must put them both in the same folder.
    I've had bad experience from trying to downloading Adobe products in the past using a laptop with Windows 7 and now, having paid a substantial amount of money (for me, at least) and not being able to download the product is extremely frustrating. Please, if anyone knows how to solve this problem, I'd be so grateful ...

    Hi Soracte,
    Please try downloading the software from: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements&loc=us .
    In case of any issue try the direct download: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l .
    Kindly follow the very important instructions before download.

  • Error message when trying to download purchased songs

    I purchased some albums on my ipad that synced to my iphone. I'm now trying to download my purchases to my library stored on my PC, but I'm getting an error/warning message along the lines of:
    "You can download past purchases for up to 90 days.....You cannot assign another apple id to this computer for the next 30 days".
    Does anyone have any ideas? I did have to sign my wife out of itunes before i signed in to download my songs so i assuming its something to do with that.

    When trying to download purchased songs on ITunes, it
    gives an error message that the network connection
    timed out. also gives this error message when I try
    to download ITunes software. Can anyone help with
    this error? Thanks
    I am having the same problem. (err = -3259) and it's not listed in any of the error codes in Apple Support. Weird. Why have an error code and no reference for it.
    First it happened when I tried to download a movie and I kept "checking for purchases" - didn't work - checked all my ad filters, privacy filters, firewall settings - didn't work. Then I forgot for a day, went back and it worked. Now I have three episodes of a TV show that will not download and I am getting the same error message. This time it has been a few days though...Someone who knows - Please HELP!!

  • I have the new iphone and thought I could download Netflix but only found "Netflix Instant's  Best Movies" in the apps. I pay for Netflix monthly. Is it not possible to download it here and use it on the iPhone?

    I have the new iphone and thought I could download Netflix but only found "Netflix Instant's  Best Movies" in the apps. I pay for Netflix monthly. Is it not possible to download it here and use it on the iPhone? Insight appreciated.

    I understand that the OP failed to do research. But then, I wasn't replying to the OP. I was replying to Chris. I have Verizon. I can talk and use data at the same time with my Droid Maxx. Therefore, the problem is not just with the network. It would be technically possible for an iPhone to do that on Verizon/Sprint if Apple had chosen to use a different chip, such as the kind other phone manufacturers have elected to use.
    Of course, this is probably all irrelevant to the OP's issue. It was merely a point of clarification, especially for those people who are used to being able to use both voice and data at the same time on Verizon. When they switch to an iPhone, they are often surprized at the limitation.
    Best of luck.

  • Recently I have not been able to purchase songs from my iTunes on my iPhone 5, but I can purchase apps with no issues.  Has anyone else had similar problems??

    If this is an Alienware system, the most likely culprit is the Bigfoot Networks LSP as per the following document:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    Head to the Downloads and Drivers page at Dell for your particular model of Alienware. Look for available updates for your BigFoot networking device. If you update those drivers, does that give you back your Store access?

  • I Tunes will not ley me play purchased songs from a computer that is broken, and from a previous e-mail address. I am at my wits end, as whenevr I try to authorise the computer I am using with my dead e-mail address. Any suggestions please?

    i Tunes will not let me play purchased songs from a computer that is broken, and which has a previous e-mail address. I am at my wits end, as whenever I try to play the songs I receive a message to authorise the computer I am using with my dead e-mail address. I end up in a mess, changing I-Ds, etc. I have paid an IT company to sort  things out, with some success, but still I keep getting thiese messages. Surely iTunes should be less complex than this. I am not brilliant with IT, but not at all stupid. Any suggestions please?

  • Won't let me download purchased songs (error 8517), Won't let me download purchased songs (error 8517)

    There's about 25 or so songs that I have purchased but can't download. Whenever I click on Downloads, It says there are 25 songs available for download, I click to download them and they all come up with an error. Someone suggested I go to Store --> Account --> and then click download purchased songs from there, if I do that in the library it seems to act like they're all about to download but none of them do. Anyone please help?
