Old mini won't download purchased tunes from itunes
After jacking around trying to put in new battery (never got it in because I stripped the screw), I plugged in to computer to charge and it told me "some items in library were not copied to the ipod because you are not authorized to play them on this computer". Computer is the same...ipod is the same. 55 purchased songs are not on ipod now. They used to be. What happened? Why won't they copy to ipod again? Thanks, Sandy
Choose Authorize Computer from the Store menu in iTunes and enter your iTunes Store account information. Changing the hardware configuration may cause iTunes to think it's on a different computer.

How many times can you download a purchased tune from iTunes?
I am in the process of cleaning up my itunes. I am deleting duplicates. I find that I have duplicates of purchased tunes. Don't know how this even happens but now that I've put 700 duplicates in the wastebasket, I find a lot of purchased tunes gone from the library. The view in the trash does not include artists name so if you don't know the specific name of each song, ouch! My thinking was that if I could redownload tunes that I purchased already from Itunes, I could save my self a lot of work. Any help would be appreciate guys.

IPod won't play purchased music from iTunes Store
My iPod won't play purchased songs from the iTunes Store. They play on my computer, using iTunes, through the iPod, but my iPod won't play the songs with headphones, or in my BOSE speaker station, nor in my car using my Belker radio adapter. I've purchased a few songs before, and haven't had this problem. I wasn't prompted, as I have been before, to enter in a password before playing the songs.
i have the same problem, and i looks like there are another 4 or 5 discussion threads with the same prob. my ipod is about 14months old, got one of the first 4th generations when they came out -- have never had a problem, then when i downloaded itunes 6, all of a sudden everything i have purchased since then plays fine on my computer and just keeps scrolling thru and not playing on my ipod. very very frustrating. i have tried everything, right down to a complete restore on it, and nothing helps. also, when i downloaded itunes6, my purchased music playlist disapeared -- i spent 2 weeks and 5 emails going back and forth with tech support because they wouldn't address the issue, and am wary of going to them with this one. i thought the drive or memory on the ipod was corrupted and was going to buy another one, but now i'm not so sure -- is anyone having this issue with a 5th generation? because what it looks like is itunes 6 downloads may not be compatible with 4th G, and that makes me a little cranky. any one find a solution for this yet?

IPod won't play purchased music from iTunes
I cannot figure out why my iPod mini skips over purchased music from iTunes. I looked at the files and they are .mp4 & there is a little lock symbol on the file. Someone help! I have already dowloaded the latest updates and nothing has changed...
I have the same problem as others mentioned here. I just updated my mini to 1.4, and iTunes to 6.0. Just purchased an album and went to play it and all the songs were just skipped over by my mini. Then checked and the same happens for all purchased music.
I then check in iTunes and everything plays fine there. Then uploaded the songs to my 40GB and everything plays fine on the 40GB. I recently updated the 40GB to the latest firmware as well.
The mini plays all other music just fine. -
My iPod nano 4th generation won't download newer podcasts from iTunes
my ipod nano 4th generation won't download newer podcasts from itunes
If you use automatic syncing, select the iPod in iTunes. There is a row of "tabs" (starting with Summary). Click on Podcasts there. This is the Podcasts tab, where you tell iTunes how to sync podcasts.
Sync Podcasts is checkmarked for automatic syncing. Below that, set up the Podcasts tab to sync podcasts as desired. For example, you can set it to Automatically include all unplayed episodes of selected podcasts. The "all unplayed" option gets new podcasts episodes to sync automatically. Select the podcasts below.
When you click Apply, your selection on the Podcasts tab (and the other tabs... Music, Books, etc.) sync to the iPod. If the iPod was NOT previously set to use automatic syncing, its existing content is replaced. -
How do I re-download purchase ringtone from iTunes
How do I re-download purchase ringtone from iTunes
This is probably not going to be good news but here are a few things before the final point:
1. If you have the ringtone in iTunes, you can simply transfer to iPhone (If you have backed up your iPhone 5s, it will be available in iTunes)
2. Click on iTunes store on the left, then in the right hand side, under "Quick Links", select "Purchased". See if you can locate your ringtone
3. Most Likely (This is the bad news) -> If you didn't backup your purchase, then it's most likely gone.
Note:
"Ringtones cannot be re-download for free.
Your need to transfer ringtone purchases to your iTunes Library for safe keeping."
"For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases."
Here is a link to help you out if you are desperate:

Nano won't play purchased music from iTunes 6!
Is there anyone else that is having problems playing purchased music from iTunes 6 on your iPod? My 4GB iPod nano is not playing (i.e. skipping over) songs that I have purchased AFTER I upgraded to iTunes 6. My iPod software is up-to-date and I tried resetting the iPod, but neither helped. Any suggestions? Thanks for any help.
-Ben PowellFrom what I've read, resetting your nano erases the music, etc. from your nano, putting the software back to its original state.
This really has to s*ck, but if it works, its good that you can fix it that way. It does, however, make a great real life case for backing up your music.
I've been using software (no I don't work for them) called e-backup for my email. I have receipts and other email from 2002! But, the point: it allows you to backup other folders/files. I included my music as an option yesterday because I remember losing term papers, etc. that I didn't backup to floppy or disk. Just in case! -
Can't download purchased album from Itunes Store is any one else having this problem?
Can't seem to download a purchased album from the itunes store is anyone else having the same problem? It has deductedt the amount from my account however!
I ordered mine the very same day the iPT was available in Sweden. As we are a non-iPhone country I looked with envy on my friend's jailbroken phones and especially the Mail and Calendar applications. The iPod was cool, but... - just anothr iPod with smaller memory than my old one.
After the release of the Jan software I felt ripped-off for a couple of minutes and then bought the upgrade. Since then I have been soooo happy. The software architecture in the iPT/iPhone that allows Apple to 1) add great apps later on and 2) generate a SDK for 3rd parties is amazing.
Comparison: my old Nokia N70 phone cost about $250 more than the iPT (not including the 12 month lock-up to the provider) and has so far been in for upgrades (at Nokia and later on downloads via Internet) five times. In no upgrade was any additional functionality added, just bugs corrected and bugs added.
However, the path Apple is taking on this is very narrow. If they are to charge $20 to get SDK functionality to the iPT I will probably eBay the iPT and go for a jailbroken iPhone. I accept the $20 on occasions - it should not be a subscription fee. The approach of distributing 1.1.3 without the apps is a stroke of genius IMHO, but please - don't push it too far...
Best wishes,

My iPad won't download my video from iTunes
Sometime ago I purchased Amaratine by Enya. There was a music video called May It Be. This is the song from the movie Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring. Lovely tune.
A short time ago, a different video of the same name but a 16 minute documentary showed up on the iPad 2. Now the original video will not download and I cannot think how to get it on my iPad.
Does anybody have a fix? Thanks in advance.That padlock icon simply means that you have the iPod set to automatically transfer music from iTunes. To remove it, you need to set your iPod to manual transfer.
Has this message always been displayed, or is it a recent occurrence? -

Downloading purchased songs from itunes
Hello,
I have recently purchased about 35 songs from itunes. This was my first time doing this. I have been charged for all 35 songs, however only 15 of them have actually downloaded. I emailed itunes for help and they said they cannot deal with technical support and I am getting very frusterated. I found a thread somewhere that said to go to the advanced menu and click check purchases. I have done this over and over, and when I do it the other 20 songs I have purchased come up but then disappear and fail to download. A pop up then comes up that reads
"There was an error downloading your purchased music. The disk could not be read from or written to. Use the Check for Purchases command under the Advanced menu to try again later."
Well this is exactly what I have been doing, and I have tried it over and over for 3 days now. I have tried turning off my firewall and that didnt do anything either. I don't think it has anything to do with firewalls or priveledges though since about half of them downloaded immediatly.
If anyone has had this happen to them before and knows how to fix it that would be greatly appreciated. I wont be happy if I just lost my money.. even if its only $15.00
Thanks in advance

Quit iTunes.
Look in the iTunes music folder for a folder named Downloads.
Delete the Downloads folder.
Restart iTunes then Check for purchases again. -
Download purchased AUDIOBOOK from itunes on computer TO iPad
I purchased an audiobook on my computer. I can't seem to find a way to download it to my iPad. Every auto download button I can find is on in my computer preferences and in the iPad settings. Nothing ever shows up in my Purchased area on my iPad even though I've purchased several books from my iPad. This time I purchased from the computer and cannot get it to download to my iPad. I can't find clues, buttons, download options. How? Thanks
Look for the audio book in the More Tab of the iPad Music App, not in the purchased tab of iTunes. Non audio Books that you purchase will be in the iBooks app.

Can't download purchased songs from itunes store.
I recently had my laptop and itouch stolen. I now have a new laptop and itouch and would like to download the already purchased songs from the itunes store onto my new laptop. The itunes store has the songs in my purchase history but I can't find the option to download them again. I tried buying a song again to see if it would state that I had already purchased the song and that I could download it for free. But it only asked me if I would "like to buy it again". Surely their must be a way to download the songs again onto my new laptop. Any help would be great.

Was your backup copy stolen as well?
If so, you can try e-mailing itunes support to see if they will make an exception, although they are under no obligation to do so.
