Not receiving a gift sent via iTunes.  What do we do?

My girlfriend gifted me an album through iTunes, but I'm not receiving it.  What do we do?  We're both located in the US.

Hello DyramBlade,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with the gifted album.  I am sure you are eager to listen to the album, and I have a couple of suggestions to resolve this.
First, I recommend having your girlfriend resend the gifted album using the steps in the following article:
Resend iTunes Gifts
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1541
If you are still not receiving the gifted album, I recommend reporting the issue to the iTunes Store using the steps in the article below:
How to report an issue with your iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, or iBookstore purchase

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

  • "The iphone software update server could not be contacted" - error message recieved when i try to update to 5.1.1 via itunes , what can i do ?

    The iphone software update server could not be contacted" - error message recieved when i try to update to 5.1.1 via itunes , what can i do ?

    Dear Lawrence Finch: 
    If you're still around I hope you see this message, as you're the FIRST person (after reading every link, thread, other sites, apple support articles, etc.) to mention JB may be causing this iTunes popup window to REPEATEDLY occur:
    "The iPhone software update server could not be contacted."
    No, I did not hack anything (are you kidding?  Grannies don't hack!), but I unknowingly bought a 3Gs iOS 3.1 from ebay that was not advertised as JB.  Since it is like brand new, I was going to keep it (because my old backup is iOS 3.1.2) & was trying to simply restore & update, which (I thought) would remove the JB (that's what everybody says at forums, etc).
    Instead, after "erasing all settings/content" (inside phone's Settings to get the prior person's name out of there), it is now stuck in White Apple Mode.
    Put it in DFU/Recovery Mode & connect to iTunes but that stupid above message keeps appearing & I have already read/tried EVERYTHING to get rid of that message, starting with: 
    1.  OLD phones (3Gs) with OLD iOS 3.1+ should work FINE with OLD Mac (iBook) with OLD OSX (Tiger 10.4.11) with OLD iTunes (9.2.1[5]).  So that can't be the problem.
    Here's all the other things apple & others say to check which I already checked:
    2.  USB ports are FINE, both work FINE, so that's not the problem.
    3.  No "extra USB devices" are connected, ONLY a mouse, & then the phone (yes, I tried it w/o the mouse connected but that didn't help).
    4.  No "usb hubs."
    5.  Latest iTunes for this OSX has already been DL'd (iTunes 9.2.1[5]).  If you know of a newer one for this OSX, please advise.
    6.  No antivirus software.
    7.  No security software.
    8.  No routers; only 1 comcast modem, period.  Wired Ethernet.
    9.  No wifi gadgets, no wifi at all.
    10.  No firewalls, except what is on iBook in the SHARING/System-Prefs. section.  It's turned OFF.
    11.  Did the hosts/terminal thing sudo nano whatever it was.  There were only 3 lines, NO gs.apple.com:
    xxxxx local host
    xxxxx broadcast host
    xxxx local host
    Oh, & btw, ATT officially unlocked this phone (after I filled out their online forms) but I can't finish the process via iTunes to get their Confirmation that "Device is Now Unlocked," so I can use T-Mo.
    So that's it.  If you have any other ideas of what to do from here, since from your comment, maybe it's the stupid JB on this phone that is causing the problem (???), please advise.
    Many thanks!

  • My iPod touch 2nd generation forced a software update to apply to my ipod via itunes. what effect did this update have on my ipod software, as i still cannot download some apps?

    My iPod touch 2nd generation forced a software update to apply to my ipod via itunes. what effect did this update have on my ipod software, as i still cannot download some apps?
    I would appreciate your support to help me figure out if this problem is solvable.
    The error comes about whilst trying to download certain apps from the app store, including CSR Racing which when i tap on install a message box pops up saying "This App Is Incompatible With This iPod touch", another time for a different app it came up with a message saying "This app requires OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics capability.
    Main questions:
    What was achieved from the latest forces iPod touch 2g update (17/07/2012)?
    solvable problem(s)?
    Will i need to buy a more recent model of iPod touch if this isnt fixable?
    ps. My iPod has lasted me 3 years so far so i am not suprised, still in good nick!
    thanks, Sim x

    i saw something on itunes just a moment ago saying iPod 1g can download 3.1 update for £2.99, will this help with the compatability of the csr racing app at all with that individual problem? |http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2052] (html for this)
    i didnt think graphics could change via software updates

  • HT4864 I am not receiving e-mail sent to me by a one friend

    I am not receiving e-mail sent to me by a one friend. I am using my .mac e-mail account. I have put all three of his email addresses in my address book but I still do not get the e-mails and he gets a rejection e-mail every time he sends one to me. Any idea how to fix this?

    897381 wrote:
    So, Where sent messages are stored?
    Because if I go into my email account nothing appears in the outbox?Of course not. Why would it appear in your e-mail reader's outbox when your e-mail reader did not send the e-mail ?
    my Pl/sql looks like:
    BEGIN
    utl_mail.send(sender => '[email protected]',
    recipients => '[email protected]',
    subject => 'Test',
    message => 'HOlix');
    END;And this results in the Oracle database server to contact the mail server and send the mail. Your e-mail client is not part of this process. Your e-mail reader does not know about that e-mail. Your e-mail reader is a client- not a server. It has no reason to know what another e-mail client (your PL/SQL code) send or did not send.
    You want an outbox? You need then to design and code one for your PL/SQL mail client.
    I dont understand what happen?Perhaps you should read up on WHAT a mail (SMTP) server is, HOW it works, and WHAT a PPOP3/IMAP mailbox is, and HOW that works?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Did not receive University Gift Voucher for App Store

    I purchased a Mac Book Pro with student discount yesterday from the store in Regeant Street, London. However I did not receive the gift voucher as stated on the link below:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/browse/campaigns/back_to_school
    How do I claim this gift voucher?
    Cheers for you help

    I tried phoning them today but it said something about being iPhone only hotline. I am busy all week so I will just go into the store with my receipt next week-end to see them I guess.
    I did get the education discount and they took my student card so they must have just forgotten the app store card. Hopefully they will be ok with it...
    Thanks for your help!

  • I did not receive my verify email ... what's wrong ?

    when I click in    " send reset security info email ... "     I did not receive my verify email ... what's wrong ? please help

    Check the spam filter and wait a few hours. If you haven't gotten it after then, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.

  • I am trying to reset my security questions, but I have not received the email with instructions. What is the problem?

    I initially created my apple account years ago. I am trying to reset my security questions because my answers are continually incorrect. I pressed the link that sends reset security questions info to my alt. address, but I have not received the email with instructions. I have resent the email several times and checked both of the emails I have set up with my apple account to no avail. I have tried everything that is provided in the support article about the issue and my problem has not be resolved. I've even deleted my alt email from the apple account and then reassigned it and tried again, however, I still have not received the email. Without knowing the answers to my security questions, I cannot purchase anything from the iTunes store, which I have been trying to do.
    I do not know what the problem is and I am asking for any resolutions. Please and thank you!

    Go to the Apple ID Security site from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 or call the AppleCare support number from http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and ask to speak with the Account Security Team...either can help you reset your questions/answers.

  • E71 is not receiving image or picture via bluetoot...

    I tried sending images to my E71 via bluetooth but its not receiving.
    It is ok for videos or for sound files, but its receiving any images.
    I tried from many devices but it didnt work.
    Sending images via bluetooth is ok. Only its not receiving. What to do?

    It think it is a few years since there was a PC Suite version that worked with Windows 2000.
    And as the versions of PC Suite that are old enough to work on Windows 2000 were done before the E71 was made, the old PC Suite versions will not recognize the E71.
    Microsoft also stopped support Windows 2000 and releasing fixes (including security fixes) some time ago, so it might be safer to migrate away from Windows 2000 (at least if you're PC's are connecting to the Internet).
    The latest PC Suite version you can always find on http://www.nokia.com/pcsuite

  • HT4623 I can no longer send photos from my Iphone 4G. Also not receiving any photos sent by family members. I did the reset of the entire phone & restored from Icloud backup still having same issue.

    I can no longer send pictures from my I phone 4Gs, It's been updated & I reset the entire phone & restored. Still having same issues. Also not receiving pictures anymore either.

    Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
    My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
    They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
    However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
    I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
    Anyways I digress.
    So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
    At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
    All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
    Answers in a postcard :-)
    Much love
