"Purchased items that have not been transferred..."
Hi all.
Ipad mini. I get a msg that says it could be updated to IOS 7.1.1.
When I try to do that, I get this msg:
In the iTunes menus, or Help, I find nothing that remotely looks like "Transfer purchases".
What's the problem???
Thanks.
Click on cancel. Then right click on your iPad name under the devices heading in the left sidebar or under the devices button in the upper right part of the iTunes window (however you have iTunes configured to select your device) and then select Transfer Purchases from the resulting window. Let the items transfer, then sync and backup. Right click on the device name again and select Backup.
After you backup, then update the iOS.

When trying to update phone, a message says i have purchased items that have not been transferred to iTunes, what is this?
We need a bit more information to help.
Are you trying to update your iPhone using iTunes on your computer? If so, did you make purchases through the iTunes Store or App Store on your iPhone, and fail to sync them with your computer? That is the likely meaning of what you are seeing. If this is true, the purchases would be added to iTunes in your computer before the upgrade proceeds. -
IOS 7 - why does my iphone 4S say I have purchased items which have not been transferred?
I downloaded iOS 7 to iTunes (11.1) and synced my iPhone (4S), but when I try to update, I get an alert saying that I have puchased items on my iPhone which are not in my iTunes library and that I should transfer them before upgrading. I have synced several times, but I still get this warning. Why is this happening, and what should I do about it?

Mark Priceokay I've done everything regarding the transfer process (via file>transfer purchases) and syncing, so everything on my iPhone device seems to have been transferred to my iMac... however, I still get that message ("There are purchased items on the iPhone..."), trying to upgrade the iOS Have tried several times the same process of hitting transfer purchases via file, but nothing seems to make that message go away! Would have been nice to know which files I actually do need to transfer, which I don't get any info on of course...
Starting to get really annoying this thing.. Any smart suggestions what's going on? -

When I am trying to upgrade my iphone to IOS7.0.2 by connecting my my iphone and macbook, it shows "There are purchased items on the iPhone “asingh’s iPhone” that have not been transferred to your iTunes library. You should transfer these items to your iTunes library before updating this iPhone. Are you sure you want to continue? ". I hit the same issue and lost a lot of apps from my iphone. Can someone help on how to resolve this issue? I can automatically upgrade my software on the iphone but how shall I resolve any future updates of "Apps"?
I appreciate the answer, but what you describe is not entirely accurate. First, to even see view, you have to enable the menu by clicking on the icon in the upper left. View allows you to show the sidebar.
Second, you will NOT see your devise listed in sidebar or anywhere else. Instead, you have to click on "devise" from the sidebar menu, wait a minute, and then it will finally show up under "devise." Or maybe it just takes a minute to show up whatever you do.
Third, right clicking on your devise will take you to a menu with "transfer my files" on it, but then iTunes will refuse to make the transfer. Instead, it will tell you that <your apps> on your <devise> could not be transferred to iTunes "because you are not authorized for it on your computer." Apple unhelpfully suggests going to store> authorize this computer. There is a "store" menu item on the sidebar, but it has no "authorize this computer" sub-menu. Instead, go to the horizontal menu at the upper left, and THERE you will find "store" and the "authorize this computer" sub-menu. Now you can transfer your files, to who knows where.
My iPhone 5 is my first Apple devise. So far my experience has been, to do A, which must be done right now, you must first do B. To do B you must first do C, which is unexplained save in answers in user forums. To do C you must first do D, which, after several hours of research and puzzle solving, can eventually be done. -
How to delete purchased items that have not yet downloaded
How do I delete purchased itune items that have not been downloaded. When I first started using itunes to download movies I would recieve both hd and standard and I don't want both.....I want to delete all the hd ones.
Sorry, but you can't remove things already in the download queue. If you don't want the HD versions, just buy the standard-definition versions ("Buy Movie" rather than "Buy HD Movie"). As to movies already in the queue, it will be by far the easiest to just let them finish downloading.

I am trying to update my ipad. When I start the process, I get the message " there are items bought in itunes that were not transfered. I synchronized my ipad, but still get the same message. What can I do?
I assume that this means items that haven't been transferred from the iPad into iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your PC and launch iTunes. Right click on the iPad name on the left side under "Devices" and select Transfer Purchases from the pop up window. Then sync one more time. Then after that, right click on the iPad name again and select - Backup. After that process completes then you should be OK. -
II have an iPhone 4. I want to update my iPhone operating system but when I do, it says I have purchases that haven't been transfered to my iTunes library. I sync my phone everytime I plug it in (automatically), so I'm not sure why I'm getting the message. I have updated opertating systems before and lost everything, photos, contacts, music, aps, etc so I've been hesitant to do it this time, but my phone is just too slow and aps keep crashing etc.
Short of going through and manually verifying every app and song ive purchased, how can I figure out what is missing from my library, and begin this update?
Thx
Jonthanks, but the device displays on the top right of the latest version of itunes, and i doesn't allow a right click. You can open it and access the info inside but theres no option to "transfer items" anywhere :-s

With the device connected, select File > Transfer purchases.
If there is content from multiple Apple IDs on the device, each Apple ID must be authorized on the computer. -

what happens if your trying to update your ipod but its telling me i have purchases that has not been transferred to my itunes libary and its says i can still do it but im scared its gonna erase something but i dont know how to transfer things either!!!
Transfer the purchass by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
In iTunes 11 use Control+B to show the Menu bar then go to iTunes>File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
If not transferred, the purchases will not be on the iPod after the update.
