Hi, Ive purchased for the first time a book in itunes but cant open it unlike music which allows me to open ver easily there seems to be no handy hint to help, im not very adept with my nac as a recent convert, but hope someone can help?

books purchased in iTunes can not be read on Macs. This feature does not exist (yet anyway). They can only be read on an iDevice (iPod,iPhone, iPad).

I have formatted my computer and re installed itunes. However, I cannot see my purchased musics/movies/books on my library anymore. I can see my purchased registration on my account, but I don't know how can I do to download it back to my pc. Any ideas?

Thanks a lot

Go to the iTunes Store and select "Purchased" from the Quick Links side bar on the right. Go through all the tabs to download again for free

HT1349 I have registered with my local library and can download books. But these are not being shown in ITunes, the Library does not show 'audiobooks'. I have an ipod 6G. can anyone help please?

I have recently purchased (from the States) an ipod nano 6th generation. I belong to a local library and can download books from the audiobooks online section. Problem is, my iPod when synced to iTunes, does not show Library as a category and audiobooks. For some reason, it is allowing me to download the books to my iPod, but I am unable to delete them from the iPod, and also, it is giving an echo (I think somehow it is downloading twice which is giving an echo effect). Not sure what is going on, but if anyone can advise me on this I would be very grateful.

Hello mrsbonniesue
If you have an issue with the audiobook showing up in music, check to see if those tracks are labeled as audio books or music. The article below will explained as well as I have highlighted the main portion for changing that information.
iTunes 11 for Windows: Edit song and CD information
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12360
Identify an item that you imported from a CD as an audiobook, so it appears under Audiobooks instead of Music (click the Options button and choose Audiobook from the Media Kind pop-up menu). If you do this, iTunes also remembers your place in the audiobook

ITunes on my phone is no longer playing some songs, even those I have purchased with my phone. They will play fine on my pc itunes. I also cannot remove the audio books that are on my phone and add others and the audio books on my phone will not play.

I am unable to play new songs purchased on my phone and some old songs on my ipod/iphone. They all work fine in iTunes on my computer. I also cannot remove the audiobooks from my phone when I sync even though I have unchecked said books, and I cannot play them either.

Thanks. I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data. Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again.

Since I updated my iPad it will no longer open iTunes or allow me to see or open books on my bookshelf. I have tried to restore it as advised by Apple at The Trafford Centre but it will still not work and I have lost my software but I hope it is saved on

Since updating my iPad several weeks ago I can no longer open iTunes or view or read books on my bookshelf. I took my iPad to Apple at The Trafford Centre where I was advised to restore my pad. This I did using our imac and hopefully saved my software.. The restore did not work and now my pad will still not open iTunes and I no longer have my apps. What can I do to get my purchased books etc. back and open iTunes again?

Most of your purchases content can be downloaded again via the Purchased tabs in each of the store. I realize that this will be a problem for the iTunes Store on the iPad, but that has nothing to do with apps, since apps are in the App Store.
If you backed up synced with iTunes before you restored the iPad, your content should be in iTunes on your Mac and you should be able to sync it back again.

I have changed my Apple ID, but then I cannot access all the apps and books I purchased in the past with my previous ID? How can I recover my purchased items?

I have changed successfully my Apple ID. But when opening iTune with my new Apple ID, I don't see all the apps and books I purchased before changing the Apple ID. I appreciate if someone would let me know why and how can I access to my purchased items again.
Thanks.

If you are referring to an iDevice, sign out of your new Apple ID and sign back in with your old one - they should all be there.

Of course it always works, what are you talking about.
I appreciate that re-downloading is only available in the US and then only with certain content. However content that cannot be re-downloaded is not offered for purchase on the Apple TV.

I have purchased a ringtone in the iTunes Store for my iPad, and I cannot find the download together with my music. I have received the invoice but I have no product. I am working with iOS6, if that helps. Can anybody help me?

I am confused. Do you mean you found the music, not the tones, or you can't find either?
If the former, then this is normal. You can't redownload tones from the Cloud.

I am trying to download a book on my ipad. It says I need to install itunes. I have itunes already. I frequently get a message to re-install itunes. I do, but I still get the message, and I still can't get the book on my ipad.

I live in Canada, but my iPad was purchased in the US. I am trying to order a photo book which I have created on line, and wish to send it to a canadian address. The standard order form is rejecting the canadian address. Can I do this or not?

I live in Canada but my notebook was purchased in the US. I am trying to buy and send an iphoto book which I created, to a canadian address but the form won't accept a canadian address. What can I do?

If this is an iPhoto question (the forum you posted in) and if you have iPhoto '11 (you tell nothing about your system) then you set the print products country in the iPhoto preferences
If this is an iPhoto for IOS question then post in that forum - https://discussions.apple.com/community/app_store/iphoto_for_ios

I bought a song off of the itunes store on my iphone but it wont play. I even tried to repurchase it but it says that I already purchased it. I have restarted my phone and turned it off but it still won't download or play. HELP!

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your phone and re-download it via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on it, or the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking some people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

When we purchase from iTunes the balance is not coming off of the gift cards. We have family sharing on but when my kids purchase songs they are credited to our credit card and not the gift card that is already in their account. What's wrong?

Use VPP. Select an MDM. Read the google doc below.

I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up. I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everything. I have authorized this new computer so I don't know what the problem is. I can't get on my old computer with my itunes account because the computer is broken. Not sure what to do

"I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
Correct. it does not magially appear in other places. It will only be where you put it.
"I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everything. "
Correct as well. Iphone will sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content.
You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one.

Hey jousley33,
I see that you wish to have your music stored remotely and be able to access it via streaming on your iPad. This is a feature of the service called iTunes Match:
Apple - iTunes - iTunes Match
https://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/
You may also be able to access the music that you have purchased through the iTunes Store remotely:
iCloud: What is “content everywhere”?
