Purchased music is blank!

Hi
I just purchased an album via iTunes. The first 8 tracks play fine, but the remaining 8 are total silence. They play - the little grey bar at the top of the iTunes window moves along for the duration of each track - but all I hear is silence.
The files are in my folder and all have a size (7.8MB, 13MB, etc) and the correct icons and information, but they are silent.
What to do?

No purchased music showing up on iTunes 11.1.2

Since updating my iTunes to 11.1.2 the tab for my purchased music is blank, no matter what link I try to access it through. Apps and Books tabs do still appear. What's going on? I read several people with this same issue on the forum and syncing taking forever, which I also experienced! I guess another update will fix these troubles soon... They better!

It's not just you. My entire 'Purchased' window in the iTunes store is blank. I don't even get any tabs:
This appears to be only on one Mac of three, eunning 10.9. The other two - one running 10.9, one running 10.7.x - appear to behave normally.
The nonfunctional one is behind a rather controted corporate firewall and netnanny - I can't change that - but I didn't have this kind of problem with previous versions.

Can't see purchased music, movies, or TV shows after upgrade to iTunes 11.1.2

I upgraded my Macbook to the new Mavericks OS and also updated iTunes to the newest version 11.1.2 on Wednesday. Since then I have been unable to view any of my purchased music on the iTunes Store. The purchased page comes up blank. However I am able to view it the purchased music via the iTunes Store link on my iPod Touch and iPad.
I'm also unable to download the movies and TV shows that I purchased on iTunes on my computer. They show up under purchased but they do not have the cloud icon on them for me to download. When I click on them it takes me to the page to purchase them again. However when I view them on my iPod and iPad they have the cloud link so that I can download them without having to pay for them.
Is anyone else having these issues since downloading Mavericks and iTunes 11.1.2? I tried downloading some of the purchased music to my iPod and syncing with my computer but after 4 hours of the spinning wheel I gave up on trying to sync my iPod.

Found a solution from the Apple Support Team. The link below will tell you what to do to get your cloud content to show up in your library so that you can download it.

Just scroll down the Mac and PC section and choose the version of iTunes you have and it will provided step by step instructions. Worked for me!

I have purchased music on my Ipad that I want to transfer manually to my main laptop computer. I have the Ipad set up to managed music, etc manually, but it won't allow the transfer. I'm sure this is an easy fix, but I'm blanking for some reason on how to get this completed.

Thank you for the reply. Is there a way to only transfer music purchased and not movies etc?

Cannot play my purchased music

I have a power mac G4 and recently upgraded to I Tunes 7.2.3 and ever since I cannot play my purchased music (keeps unexpectally quitting) but my album downloads play fine. I am running osx10.3.9. Has anyone experienced this and might you have a solution?

many thanks.
I am in my iTunes application and when I press the link to connect to the iTunes Store, it starts churning, and churning, but never connects. It has churned for hours and when I finally click the "X" to close it, I get error code 11222.
I'd try the following document:

(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

Transferring Purchased Music on Iphone to iTunes

I recently purchased a Sony Vaio that died on me.... It just came back from Sony, like brand new.
I have my purchased music on my iPhone and haven't been able to transfer the music to the blank iTunes that I have now...... And when I try tu upgrade to the new iphone version, I get a warning that all of my music will be ERASED...
How can I tranfer my purchases from my iPhone to my BLANK iTunes?
HELP!

Plug in iPhone. Then up in File menu in iTunes, tell it to transfer purchased content.
But FIRST, log into iTunes Store on that computer so it knows your account info thus knows what to look for on iPhone.

Can't burn cd's of purchased music

For some reason my itunes will not burn my purchased music on to any type of blank cd's. this is really starting to **** me off. if anyone can help me PLEASE DO!!!

hi,
what's happening when you try? is your iTunes preferences, in advanced->burning tab is set to audio CD?

We have 4 iphones in our family and an Ipad. When we purchase music I would like for the entire family to be able to use it. Should each of us use a different apple account or should we use the same one.

We have 4 iphones and an Ipad in our family. When we purchase music, I would like for the entire family to be able to use it and then back it up to Icloud. What is the best and cheapest way for this to happen. Should we all have a different apple id or should we use the same one.

You will all need to be on the same itunes account ID.
You can however all have seperate icloud accounts aswel.

"Error downloading purchased music. Disk could not be read or written to.

I just purchased an album. It downloaded 23 of the 25 tracks until it gave me this error: "There was an error downloading your purchased music. The disk could not be read from or written to."
I double checked my hard drive space and found I had about 1 gig left, which is a small percentage of my harddrive, but plenty of space for a few songs. But, just to be sure, I deleted an old iMovie project to free up another 20 gigs. I restart the iMac and ran iTunes.
iTunes told me, "The file 'iTunes Library' does not appear to be a valid music library file. iTunes has attempted to recover your music library and renamed this file to 'iTunes library (Damaged).'" I pressed Ok to this message and the next, which asked if I wanted to download the rest of my purchased music. I held out hope that the songs would download -- that the iTunes and wonderously repaired itself.
Nope. It seems to actually download the songs, but fails to actually write them to disk. I check my permissions for the iTunes Library folder and I have read & write access. Furthermore, I ran Repair Permissions from Disk Utility. Still, no dice.
So, I thought I'd purchase a second album, just to see if it was the two songs (maybe corrupted). Now, I can't get any songs out of the new album in addition to the original two misfit songs. It seems that whatever happened has no prevented me from downloading and saving anything from the Music Store.
I am beginning to fear a hard drive failure, though everything else seems not to care (including iMovie 6). Does anyone have any other tips to offer? I'll give anything a try at this point. If worse comes to worse, I'll travel to my local Apple Store Genius Bar and see what they can do.
Thanks in advance.

Answered my own question. After I thought I had tried everything, it occurred to me to Verify Disk. Doing so revealed a minor bitmap error. So, using my trusty install disk, I booted my machine to the disk and repaired it.
After the repair, I started iTunes and was able to download my songs. Unfortunately, my original library file was permanently damaged, so I had to start with a clean one. However, if the worst thing to happen to me in all this is that I have to redefine my playlists, then I'm better off.
I hope this thread helps someone in the future.

IPod no longer plays my purchase music???

Hi everyone,
I've recently moved my music collection to a different computer and everything seems fine except purchased songs etc won't play on my iPod. They transfer over fine but when it goes to play anything purchased it skips to the next track. I've tried all that the apple site recommends however it's final option is no good to me, it said to restore my collection from a recent backup when that is exactly what got me into this mess.
I don't know what to do next, updating and restoring my ipod seems to do nothing.
Any ideas anyone?
Alienware Windows XP wish it were a Mac...

Just as a matter of interest, do you let the iPod go into "deep sleep" (where you don't use it for more than 36 hours)? There seems to be some indication that this causes purchased music not to play.
There's one other thing.
Enable the iPod for disk use. See How to enable disk use.
Go to "my computer" and from the tools menu/folder options/view tab, enable "show hidden files and folders" in the advanced settings pane. Open the iPod in "my computer". Look for a file called "iEKinfo". Is it there? If so, make a copy of this file and save it somewhere easy to find (the desktop for instance). Do this also with the "iTunes DB" file. Don't worry if you can't see these files.
Create a new administrator account. Log out of the current account and log in to the new one. Then restore the iPod to factory settings.
Open iTunes, connect the iPod and set the transfer preferences to manual transfer. Then download the free single of the week from the iTunes Music Store. Verify that song plays in iTunes.
Now, drag this song only to the iPod, and eject the iPod from iTunes and disconnect it from the computer.
Does the song play on the iPod ok? If so, log out of the new user account and log back in to your normal one (the one you have issues with) and reconnect the iPod to the computer. Keep manual transfer selected for the moment. Drag some of the older purchased music (the ones that wouldn't play before) to the iPod.
Eject the iPod and disconnect it. Do those songs now play ok?
If not, first try this step.
Delete the SC Info.sidb file. Open iTunes again.
Now transfer some of the affected music to the iPod again. Does it play ok?
If not, do this.
Recreate your iTunes library.
Now, would you please send some info about this issue to [email protected]
Include the following info.
Did any of the steps resolve your issue, if so which one?
Which model iPod are you using?
What computer OS are you using?
Was the iEKinfo file present on the iPod at the start of troubleshooting?
If not, was it there after any of the above steps, if so, which one?
Include your account name (not your password) you use for the iTunes Music Store.

No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
That would depend on what you are trying to do.

ITunes Purchased Music Won't Play

OK, I must be doing something wrong. I sync my iPhone and it gets all the music I had selected. But I've discovered a number of songs that won't play...and these just happen to be iTunes purchased music! My regular mp3's will play.
Now I know the purchased songs work because they play on my Nano and Shuffle2. The purchased songs also play in iTunes.
Any ideas?
And a second question...I've downloaded a few TV shows which play fine in iTunes but do not play on the iPhone. Is there a "trick" to playing my purchased music and video on the iPhone?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi!
I discovered that my purchase music and videos stopped playing when I went into a Tully's coffee shop and attempted to access their Wi-fi network. I don't know if this was the cause of me losing access to my purchase music, but this is when the problems started. When I got home today I unloaded all the music playlists off of my iphone using itunes, and then I added them back in and re-synced. This seem to do the trick. I can now listen to all of my purchased music and watch my purchased videos. Give it a try. I hope that we don't have to do this sort of thing all the time.

Updated to 2.0, now my purchased music won't play

I can't seem to do a search since the search function for some reason has gone from the forums.
I'd like to know if anyone has been able to get their purchased music to play. It will play fine on the computer but not on the iPod Touch. Information is greyed out and the songs are unresponsive to the iPod controls.
Anyone else have this happen?
Griff

Actually I got it solved by re-synching my iPod Touch in iTunes. The second time, my authorization seems to have stuck and my purchased music now plays.
