Purchased music wont play on my rebuilt computer

i recently had problems with my computer and i rebuild some of the compotents like the mother board, video card added a stick of ram, a sound card and got a new case for the computer. and now itunes isnt letting me play my purchased music nor upload it into my ipod. any fixes?

I would guess that iTunes is recognizing your rebuilt computer as a "new" computer. I would suggest try authorizing your newly-rebuilt computer (I believe there is an option to authorize your computer under the Advanced menu). So it's likely that the music is not playing because the computer is not authorized yet.

Purchased Music wont play on iphone

Hi everyone..
Please help!
Music has all worked fine on iPhone 4s.
As of yesterday all my puchased music on my iPhone won't play.
It doesn't start or even try but jumps to the next song with the wrong artwork.
CDs I transferred work fine but nothing from iTunes.
iTunes plays fine on my computer.
I tried deactivating then reactivating and resynching.
I also copied the purchased into a playlist. It wont play the songs purchased songs out of the playlist either.
Grr.. any ideas?
No updates/new software since then and Im on the latest iTunes version and latest iOS

Ok folks,
I had this problem inn that the music was on the phone but would not play or at least the track appeared to be playing but no sound or the art work and artist did not match the track playing.
What I did was un tick every box in the iphone music tab and then synced. I then took all the sync my music ticks out and scnced the phone again. My tracks were still on the phone and played.
I have the back up to icloud turned on so i don't know if this was causing some conflict somewhere.
It seems to have sorted it for me at the moment.
Hope this helped

i am trying to sync music to my new ipod touch it says its downloaded but it wont play half plays half wont

If you have made sure that both the iTunes and iPod software are current and have deauthorized and reauthorized your computer, try this test:
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.
The following articles will help you.

Older purchased music wont play??

my itunes plays most of the newly purchased music, but it wont play other music. i have already deathurized all computers and only authorized the one that im on now. but the older music says its still already used up all 5 slots.
any thoughts???

Make sure you're using the iTunes Store account under which the tracks were purchased. Often people forget that some tracks were purchased from a different account. Select a track that won't play, Get Info (under the File menu), and it will show you the account name through which it was purchased. Make sure that's the account ID and password you're using to authenticate.
Note that if that account also shows all five authorizations used up, you'll have to log into that iTunes Store account and use the Deauthorize All command for that account as well.
Hope this helps.

Another Ipod Problem - Purchased Music wont play

I just recently recieved my fifth repaired Ipod in a year and a halves time, and now I have another problem. I loaded all of my iTunes songs to my iPod, but all of my purchased music will not play, it just skips over them to the next song. What is going on?
Thank you for your help in advance.

Could you share this again? I have looked for answers to this issue in multiple threads and have yet to find anything that works. All the latest stuff, resync, etc. and the purchased music still won't play after some interval of time. It plays fine for a while then it just skips through the titles.
Is it a time thing or something you can set?
Thx for any insight.

Purchased music wont play on ipod

music bought and downloaded from itunes music store (Australia) will not play on my ipod. it skips through the playlists and then goes back to the main menu or just dosnt play the song at. need help please.

Re your music, does any music purchased previously from itunes run on your ipod? My daughter's ipod mini is displaying the similar symptoms, an album she bought and downloaded has stopped playing, deleting and re-loading got it working again but within the week it was back to skipping through the list again. It's only this one album that has been affected,older purchases are working fine. She has the latest software on her ipod and iTunes.

I just downloaded iTunes on my new PC and all the music that I have purchased through ITunes that was backed up on the cloud won't play. It is telling I must authorize this computer before it play pre purchased music. how do I authorize my computer.

I just downloaded iTunes on my new PC and all the music that I have purchased through ITunes that was backed up on the cloud won't play. It is telling me I must authorize this computer before it can play pre purchased music. how do I authorize my computer to play this music?
Thank you for any assistance.

Tigon's already got you covered here. But I'll chime in with some English localisation advice.
There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

I have lost all my music and a site showed me how to get it back but the music wont play

My computer crashed and I lost all my music when I tryed to transfer all my music back into itunes the music wont play but it does play the new cds i have purchased from itunes
Please help as I have over 600 albums that i want to put onto my itunes that where there before my computer crashed

Media can be restored from the backup that should be kept of your important files. If you do not have a backup, that is not good.
Since you stated you recoved your music, does the music now actually exist on the computer? Do you see it in iTunes? What happens when you try to play it? Details are important, otherwise a lot of time can be wasted on irrelevant troubleshooting.
If the new music is playing, that would lead me to suspect that the old music was in fact not recovered.

HT1727 i copied itune music from old hard drive to memory disk the copied onto new hard drive into itunes and music wont play unless removalbe disk is inserted

i copied itune music from old hard drive to memory disk the copied onto new hard drive into itunes and music wont play unless removalbe disk is inserted

Then your iTunes must be looking at the removable disc, not your hard drive. Did you actually copy the songs onto your computer, or simply tell iTunes to look at the removable drive?
Highlight a song and click on File/Get Info/Summary>Where and check the location that iTunes has listed for the song. What does it say?

My recently purchased songs wont play, popup says unable to locate

my recently purchased songs wont play in itunes, album grafics keep disappearing, pop up says original file could not be found. Also my ipod freezes up when I try to play these songs on it.

Hello musiccc
That means that iTunes cannot find the file to play. The article below will assist with finding the files on your computer. If they are not on your computer, then delete them in iTunes so you can download those purchases again.

I want to remove icloud as music wont play on my usb or cd player.

iTunes in the Cloud is a free feature that gives you access to your past purchases which you can then download to your library or stream. You can disable the display of Cloud items by going into iTunes preferences from the menus or press Control-Comma, then select the Store tab and untick Show itunes in the Cloud purchases.

My music wont play when i put my iphone4s on a dock or in my car but pandora will play

my music wont play when i put my iphone4s on a dock or in my car, it says "accessory connected". Pandora will play fine though. help

W1$C,
Do you even know what you're talking about? Instead of going from post to post giving wrong information and overusing your exclamation point key, do NOT answer if you have no idea about what you're talking about.
Bluetooth 4.0 is backward compatible with all other iterations of bluetooth and has absolutely nothing to do with the problem the OP is having.
You might also want to purchase a dictionary and read up on the difference between "firmware" and "malware". If you continue spew incorrect information, I will report you to the moderators to have your account removed.

Can anyone help me figure out how to sync my ipod with my purchased music? I have used several computer and at one point synced my ipod with a computer that only had about half of my music. My other computers are no longer working. Not sure how to get my purchased music back onto my ipod?

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!
