How do I make that appear on my purchased music? I know it's not a big deal but I'd like to have it show up on my Music app and the info page on iTunes.

Error when downloading purchased music - help? :S

Hi there!
I've purchased music (read: I've been charged), but am having issues downloading it from the store into iTunes (on my computer)
The error reads: There was a problem downloading (x song). Then below in lighter type - "The file seems to be corrupted. To redownload the file, choose "Check for Purchases" from the Store Menu."
The kicker is - when I follow the instructions in the error, I get the same error...
Has anyone come across this and does anyone know how to fix it???
TIA.

Converting Itunes Purchased Music HELP PLEASE??

So i bought a new music device. archos if it matters but i cant put any of my purchased music onto it because it is all Protected DRM or something of that nature. anyone know how to convert it to mp3 format? many programs only convert a few minutes and i dont wanna spend 50 bucks on a program for a one time thing. i find it frustrating that my over 300 purchased songs are now useless to me. HELP PLEASE?

You have two options: (1) You can use iTunes to burn the tracks onto *audio CD,* which can be used just like any other *audio CD.* (2) You can upgrade the songs to non-DRM "iTunes Plus" versions for 30 cents apiece.

Burning Purchased Music - Help!

Anyone who has time to help, I would greatly appreciate it!
Issue:
Any attempt to burn purchased music to CD results in a disc that will not play in any of 4 CD players I own (home stereo, car, portable, etc.)
Facts:
--Audio CD is checked in Preferences
--Using Sony media
--Have tried Burning/Ripping back to iTunes/Burning technique
--Have tried Burning ripped tracks through Toast
--Have not exceeded 7 burn limit
20" iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

I am using CD-R. I tried a different brand of media...same result. The cd players seem to recognize the disc and display the right amount of tracks and time, but there is no audio...
Any other ideas?

With your iPod connected to your computer and iTunes running, select your iPod form the left pane, click the File menu in top bar, from there select "transfer purchases from iPod"

I recently upgraded to iOS 7.0.3 and now my iPhone 4S will only sync purchased music to my phone from iTunes. Help! I have TONS of music that I have bought and burned to my computer, but cannot listen to it on my iPhone. This seems ridiculous!

Purchased music won't play on ipod! Help!

Hi,
I've posted this before, but not found a good response that solves the problem. Thought I'd try again - any help would be appreciated.
My original ipod died just b/4 the warranty expired, so I got a new one from the apple store. Now, my ipod will not always play music I've purchased from the itunes store. There are two "fixes" I've found for this. The first is to plug my ipod into my computer and let it update. This seems to restore the files (?) but only works for a day or two, then the ipod skips right over the purchased files. The song file info (artist, song title, album, etc...) pops up on the screen for a second or two, but then goes right to the next file.
A better fix was to drag the "itunes music" folder from the finder into the library view of itunes on my desktop. This seemed to be a better "update" and worked for several months, but I recently noticed that once again, my ipod is simply skipping over any purchased music.
As you can imagine, this is quite frustrating, and also, since I've purchased a fair amount of music from itunes that I can't reliably listen to, very expensive!
I've noticed that in my "itunes music" folder in the finder of my computer any purchased music has the file extension ".m4p" whereas any music that I have ripped from a CD that I already owned has the file extension ".m4a". Is it possible that this has something to do with it?
My guess is that because I'm on my second ipod, the songs are protected somehow so that they "lock" after a certain amount of time if the file doesn't recognize the ipod device? Does this make sense? Does apple protect these files so that you can't permanently share them with other peoples' ipods? That would seem to be a fair thing, but I can't listen to them on my own ipod! I've been to the local apple store several times, and they have no idea what's going on.
I have a mac G4, and a 5th gen ipod (20G). All the software updates are current.
Again, any help would be appreciated.

"oh, and i also downloaded the free song of the week to see if downloading something new would help it out. nope."
Into a new user account with a separate iTunes library? That's the idea.
1. Deauthorize the computer.
2. Create a new user in the system.
3. Download the free song of the week from the iTMS in the new user account.
4. Play the song in that user account to authorize again.
5. Restore the iPod (using the iPod updater) in the new user account.
6. Sync just the free song of the week and see if it plays on the iPod.
If it does, you appear to have a corrupted iTunes library file, and you should recreate the iTunes library file in your normal user account, and then sync your music back to the iPod and all should be well.

Help, i get the 'error downloading purchased music.' what do i do?

i can download music and podcast fine but when i try to purchase a tv show i get the error message "there was an error downloading purchased music. the disk could not be read from or written to" i went to the purchases command in the advanced menu several times with no luck. i have purchased three seperate shows and get the same message. i'm tired of wasting money and would like some help.
thanks

Hmm... I've never seen a issue exactly like this before personally, but usually you get the "Disk Locked" error when installing iTUnes or adding anything, songs or videos to iTunes folder. go here and follow the instructions http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302398
You may have to uninstall/reinstall iTunes AND quicktime if this does not work. Uninstlling iTunes DOES NOT delete any music, playlist, ratings ect ect

Hi kimcinma!
Your previous purchases are saved on iCloud even if you bought them on another computer. If you can't find them on your current computer, you might need to unhide them. Go to iTunes preferences, and click on Store Preferences. Then click the box for "show iTunes in the Cloud purchases". Then click on OK, and everything you've ever bought from iTunes on that Apple ID will show up in your library. You will need to download them from iCloud first before you can synch them to your iPod Classic. To do this, click on the little cloud with the arrow in it next to your song, and it will download to your computer. When you have the music that you want downloaded, plug in your iPod and synch away. Hope this helps!

Purchased music won't play on ipod 5g 60gb - need help!

hello everyone,
i've been looking for help all over the internet for hours and hours, and i have yet to find an answer. i wrote the whole sequence of events down so everyone will know which troubleshooting steps i have already gone through.
i have an ipod video, 5g, 60gb that i got in december. it's been great, up until i needed to upgrade my operating system to windows xp pro (from xp home edition). i backed up everything onto dvds, proceeded to install the new os (even gave my music it's own partition, now it feels all special and lovely and whatnot ), and reloaded itunes, got my music back on like before. then, i proceeded to install my ipod software, got the latest updates (version 1.1.1 for ipod video), and this is where i ran into problems.
prior to using itunes to install my music, i noticed a few glitches with version 1.1.1 of the ipod updater. some of my music files would show the correct artwork when normally playing the music, but if i cycled through to the larger picture of the album artwork, almost every item on my ipod showed a picture of a podcast i am subscribed to. seeing i've spent hours putting in correct artwork for thousands of songs, this irked me.
after getting all my music straight on my computer and made any changes i needed to make, i hooked my ipod up and updated with itunes. due to the new installation of windows, it had to wipe everything, and then redownload everything to my ipod.
i then noticed that not only my artwork was still screwy, but my purchased music didn't play any longer either. all of the purchased songs and videos skip through after about a couple seconds, but i did notice it did increase my play counts upon further updates. the songs play fine on my computer, no issues. and i have tried the deauthorize/reauthorize process as well, with no success.
after researching this issue a bit, i decided to follow the 5 r's. even the "restore" r, and then reloaded everything back on my ipod. now, my artwork is back like normal, which i am happy about. however, purchased music still has the same behavior. even gave the deauthorize/reauthorize process another whirl. while i could easily burn those songs to a cd and then rip them to mp3 to make them play, this still wouldn't fix my purchased video issues, leaving me right back at square one.
oh, and i also downloaded the free song of the week to see if downloading something new would help it out. nope.
i also downloaded anapod explorer to see if that would give any light onto the situation. it shows the purchased files are on my ipod, but when i disconnect from the program, it tells me "you must download a file from iTMS in order to play protected music," a step which i had already done with the free song of the week.
i'm just wondering if i should try downgrading my ipod firmware, if anyone has had the same problems, or if anyone could offer any helpful advice? i would greatly appreciate it!

I need help getting my purchased music back please

I'm pretty sure i have somehow deleted a lot of music from my itunes and computer accidentally. I am only bothered about getting my purchased music back, most of which now has a grey exclamation mark next to it and says it cannot be located. I have the purchased music on my ipod, which it plays fine on and have tried to put it back on to my itunes by selecting transfer purchases although this only transferred 18 of my purchased songs. Unfortunately my external hard-drive doesn't work anymore and i haven't got the music backed up anywhere else.
Being a student i can't afford to pay for it all again or take a 4 hour round trip to my closest apple store so i am hoping someone online could help me, thank you.

Hello Mariola,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iTunes purchases. I recommend downloading your purchases directly to your computer using the Purchases page in the iTunes Store:
Download previous iTunes Store purchases to an authorized computer
Click iTunes Store near the top of the iTunes window.
Click the Purchased link at the right of the iTunes Store homepage (below Quick Links).
In the page that appears, select a category.
iTunes shows you which of your purchases are available for download. You can view all of your past purchases, or just the ones not currently in your iTunes library. Items already in your library aren’t available for download. If you select Music, you can view your purchases by song, artist, or album. If you’re viewing by album, click an album to see which songs on it are available for downloading.
To download all available items, click Download All.

Purchased music videos completely white PLEASE HELP!

I purchased quite a few music videos from the iTunes Store and since i upgraded about 6 months ago (this is the first chance I've had to look into it!) I've had so many problems with iTunes.
Every time I try to watch a purchase music video- all I can see is a white screen with a yellowish outline of objects in the video. The sound is kinda alright, a bit crackly, but still unacceptable considering the videos are $3.69 each!
Can someone please help me out? Or just tell how I can re-download these videos for free?
THANK YOU!
peace

Hi, Jen the Hen.
Have a look at this Apple Support page , in particulat the section A purchased video looks or sounds bad.
