Purchased music with artist first in playlist

Does anyone know how to create a playlist from purchased music so that the artist name shows up first on your iPod?
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I have tried copying the purchased playlist into a new folder, then trying to move the artist tab infront of the song name, but that doesn't work. i just want a purchased music playlist that starts with band name, then when you click on it the song name appears. So you can go thru your purchased music by band, not by song. Is this really not possible?

I have purchased music with my old apple id, old computer and old email. My old email and computer are not available anymore and I dont remember my password and securtiy question anymore. How can I authorise my old apple id to authorise the new computer?

Hi, I have a new computer and new apple id. I've purchased music with my old computer, email and apple id.
I cant access now the previously purchase music, because it wants to authorize the new computer to play the
music. I cant remember password and security questions for my old id and the old email doest exist anymore.
What can I do?

Hi, Carmen.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you need to reset you security questions, do not know the answers and no longer have access to that email account, see the last sentence under Note in step 5.
You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need tocontact iTunes Store support in order to do so.

Requesting information on how to share purchased music with friends on internet.

How to share purchased music with friends on the internet.

Find the song you want in Spotify or Youtube. It may, but does not have to, match a song in your iTunes library.
Right-click the title and choose "Copy HTTP link" (Spotify) or just copy the URL (Youtube).
Email the link to your friends. They simply click on it and listen to the song.

I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
If you desire... you can Contact iTunes Customer Service and request assistance...

Why am I forced to be connected to internet in order to listen to purchased music with iTunes on iPad? I have wifi only iPad.

I tried listening to my music with my wi-fi only ipad on iTunes while driving my car. iTunes said I needed to be connected to the Internet in order to find the iTunes store. I don't want the iTunes store, I just want to listen to my music on iPad. Can I bypass the need to be connected and just get to the music? If not..... WHY NOT????

You don't need the internet to listen to your music. You're probably trying to access the iTunes store app, you need to go to the iPod app, and that is where your music will be if you have synced it over from your computer or purchased it directly.

Can't purchase music with iTunes 4.9

Try to purchase my cart and I get a message "This item requires a later version of iTunes to purchase. This item requires version 6.0 to purchase." These are just songs, no videos. I have not purchased music on another computer with 6.0. I did authorize my husband's new computer (iTunes 6.0 with Windows) to play my music. Is that why I can't buy music now?
I really don't want to upgrade to 6.0. iTunes 5.0 royally screwed up my computer. I was fortunate that I had a clone on the external hard drive and could go back to 4.9.
According to the system requirements, you need a G3 500 MHz to run iTunes 6. I only have a G3 450 MHz. Additional video requirements are G4 with 500 MHz. I'm not even sure I can play music let alone video, so I'm not going to get anything out of 6.0.
Is there anything I can do? Except purchase music on my husband's computer, burn it to CD and then import it?
Karen

Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm not sure if that will help. I never purchased anything with iTunes 6, I only authorized my husband's new computer with iTunes 6 to play my music.
This is what I heard from Apple about iTunes 6 system requirements:
Dear Karen,
Thank you for your interest in buying music from the iTunes Music Store.
While iTunes 6.0 does have basic requirements, you may attempt at downloading the new version, although we cannot guarantee this will be effective. But, in order to purchase music from the iTunes Music Store you need to be running iTunes version 6.0 or later. You can download the latest version of iTunes at no charge from our website.
I have a project coming up, but when I'm done, I will try iTunes 6 and post back.

Purchasing music with AppleTV

I have recently purchased an album from iTunes via Apple TV - I cannot see or access the purchased music in iTunes on my Mac - I can only see (and listen) to the recent purchase on Apple TV?
should I be able to view all purchased music on iTunes? If so how do I do that?
If not - can I have my money back for the album purchase?

Touch quits playing purchased music with beep

Hello My new touch 32GB stops playing purchased music partway through the song beeps then goes to the next song. You cannot use the back arrow to go back to the previous song like the new song was the beginning of the play list. Sometimes the songs will play through but most of the time they skip through. It happens at random times for each song and different times everytime the same song is played. I have 3.1.2 OS i think. Any help would be appreciated.

Purchasing Music with Laser

I am currently in college, in Ireland, and therefore don't want the hassle of having a credit card. I was just wondering if it was possible to use a laser card for purchasing music from the store or if there was any other way of getting around having to get a credit card.
Thank you, in advance

I don't think Apple ever get rid of old logins, even if you can't access your old account. You computer has to be authorised for the account you used to purchase music in order to be able to play it.
Did you have an old AOL account? In which case it is possible to convert it.
There is this Apple help on accounts and there is an email address if you can't resolve the issue yourself.

Use of Purchased music with IDVD

I have spent a small fortune on the ITunes music store, yet when I try to add a purchased song to an iDVD slide show it tells me that I am not authorized to use/play the song. It prompts me for my Music Store username and password, I enter them and the store tells me that authorization has succeeded, but when I try to preview the DVD iDVD tells me that it isn't authorized. I sent an email to apple support severals days ago but as of today I am still getting the "Microsoft" (no reply) treatment. Help me, please!

Suddenly, this seems to be popping up... Is QuickTime and all your system up-to-date with latest versions?
You could create a Playlist with the songs you want to use and burn a CD, then import that CD.
You should backup every purchase as an audio CD. My daughter had her 1 1/2 year-old hard drive die (Maxtor) and lost all of her music purchases. Apple let her download it again.

Syncing purchased music with iPone and Macbook Pro

Already asked this question in another forum, with no responses. Ok, I have been having problems for a while with syncing music on my iPhone 5 and my Macbook Pro. It all started when I turned on iTunes Match about 2 years ago. I quickly realized it wasn't something I wanted or needed. I spend a lot of time traveling in rural areas with not the best cell service so it wasn't going to work for me. I am one of those people who doesn't want to spend a lot of time thinking about my technology, I just want to put the music on my phone that I want.
Anyway, I downloaded an album through the iTunes Store on my phone which worked fine. A while later my 32GB phone was running out of memory so I just cleared all of the music off of it and started from scratch. For some reason that ONE ALBUM will not go on my phone. If I go into the settings on my iPhone and into the Music and turn on "Show All Music" I can see it on my phone but it won't let me download it because it says my iTunes match subscription is expired. The album appears in my library on my Mac but when I plug my phone into my Mac and attempt to add it, the album doesn't even show up as available to be added. I tried making a playlist and adding the album to it but the songs don't appear on my phone when I add the playlist through iTunes on my Mac. I'm running iTunes 11.3.1 (2). Ever since they overhauled iTunes a while back I've been lost in the sauce. Any suggestions from the more tech savvy people out there?
Ryan

The underlying issue here is that you have chosen to use POP3 rather than IMAP mail accounts. Only IMAP mailboxes are 'synchronized' by default: it is virtually impossible to synchronize POP3 mailbox content.
For a discussion of POP3, IMAP and mail synchronization options, take a look at the Mail & Address Book - Tiger forum located here.

Using purchased music with imovie/idvd

Apologies if this has been answered...these threads get too long to look back and back. Haven't used imovie/ idvd much since 2003-4-- so the copy protection measures on the latest version look very restrictive. Do I have this right: I make a slide show or movie via imovie-- I use music from a song purchased via the itunes store, I burn the slide show/movie to a dvd/ I give the dvd to 6 relatives, i.e. not for commercial use... and could it be that the dvd will not play with music unless I authorize their computers? In other words what exactly does that message mean than pops up that says the file won't play the music on another computer, unless it's authorized. Will it play on a burnt dvd, played on a TV?

I burn the slide show/movie to a dvd/ I give the dvd to 6 relatives, i.e. not for commercial use...
It's not legal, even though you're not charging for the DVD (copyright laws apply even when there's no commercial gain involved, hence the many suits the RIAA has filed against people sharing via Limewire and other P2P networks). Music you purchase, whether from the iTunes Store or via CD, is for your personal use and cannot be given away. If you want to create a video or slide show that you're going to give away, either obtain royalty-free music - there are a number of web sites where you can obtain such tracks - or create your own using GarageBand or a similar music creation package.
