Single of the Week Help!!

Hey everyone!
I have used iTunes for a while now, but I got my account today. I noticed that there was the Single of the Week application, so I downloaded the song (The Wishes Pile Up - Jim Bryson). On my purchase history it says that the song was free, but when I looked at my statement of my online Visa, it said that I had a purchase on iTunes for $1.00. I have not bought any other songs, and I am wondering why the supposedly "free song download" wasn't exactly free. I would appreciate any responses! Thanks so much!

Since you just signed up, the $1 is simply a hold placed on yoru CC to verify the account. It's done only when you add or change the CC info.
The $1 hold will be removed, usually within a day.

  • Submitting songs to iTunes free single of the week?

    Hey,
    I already have some of my songs on iTunes. I was wondering how songs became free singles of the week? Do I submit them? Does Apple choose randomly?
    Thanks

    Hi Carl,
    No, this is not possible as far as I know. There is, however a special playlist that Apple maintains and usually keeps it up to date with everything that is currently free. You can access this playlist from the main iTunes store screen (scroll down to the bottom), or just click this link and it will take you right there.
    Hope this helps,

  • Not able to download 'single of the week'---- why?

    I live in Canada. Why is it that i can't dwnload the single of the week, in this case, Alex Cuba, .... which is supposed to be a single song given for free each week....?From what I can remember in the past, ....i tried downloading the single of the week before but it says i can't.Why is this?....
    By the way, i tried to downloading the $19.99 apps for the ipod's touch but it also says i can't b/c the itunes is busy .... or is it b/c i am from canada and this is the real reason?.....anybody out there from canada that has these two troubles with itunes library purchasing//downloading?....

    well. .... i finally got the single of the week downloaded by MGMT or whatever they are called but i really wanted that Alex Cuba free download but it never happened. And i got that ipod touch apps downloaded as well. It is weird that I can't get every free offer download as it is usually pretty good. Yes i am on a wireless router at home with my iMac but No problems with it at all......

  • Single of the week NOT a free download?

    Panic-Oh! 2:32 Los Abandoned Panic Oh - Single of the Week $0.99
    It's listed as a free download, but it's not.

    Today the song is free! I had never seen this problem before, I guess mostly because this is the first time in ages that the New Music Tuesday email actually arrived on a Tuesday -- they're usually late, sometimes not arriving at my Inbox until Thursday or Friday... Anyway, problem solved.

  • How to delete singles of the week?

    I want to remove a song from my itunes library and my iPhone 5 but i cant find anyway to do it. Its a single of the week song and i have no idea how it ended up in my library. I cant delete it from the the library and when it says it will "hide" the song it does nothing.

    How does the track show in your library ? If it's downloaded (i.e. doesn't have the cloud icon) then you should be able to delete it in the usual way e.g. highlighting/selecting it on your computer's iTunes library and deleting it, swiping from right-to-left across it in the Music app on your phone.
    If it has the cloud icon against it then hiding it (hiding it won't delete any downloaded copies that you have) via the Purchased section on your computer's iTunes should hide it from the cloud on your computer's iTunes and the Music app on your iPhone.

  • Why do you have no "Single of the Week" in the Belgian iTunes Store

    I was wondering why we don't have a "Single of the Week" in the Belgian iTunes Store, while all our neighboring countries have one.

    I think it's still available.
    Get this iOS app that reminds you to download single of the week, it provides a direct link to the free song:
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/free-song-notifier-for-itunes/id668309237

  • Has Apple stopped the free single of the week

    I always look to see what the free single of the week is, but I can' t seem to find it in iTunes. So I'am just wondering has Apple stopped it in the uk.

    Having the same problem here, iTunes more likely than not forgot/screwed up.

  • Can't download the free single of the week

    For the last month or so I haven't been able to download the free single of the week. When I click the link, it just comes up as a 'dead link page'. Any ideas on how to fix this? Also, how can I get the free downloads I've now missed?
    Thanks

    I do know what you mean. I don't unfortunately, know what the cause of this is.
    Perhaps someone else may chip in with some advice.

  • Free Download Single Of The Week

    HI, I was wondering if you could download the free single of the week without inputting a credit card #, seeing as how i dont have a credit card, like putting in your serial # instead or something else?

    Mr, Stuff,
    I'm not even a "Level one" and I've got a better answer, yeah me!
    Answer: Yep, you sure can, what you do is go to the ITMS with an "iTunes Music Card" in your hand. You get this card from a Target, 7-11, Best Buy, and many other retailers, it's available (for CASH!) in denominations of $15, 20, 30 and I think I saw a $50 once.
    Now you click on the link on the main page on the left side called: "iTunes Music Cards" and it will give you a chance to "Redeem a prepaid Card", enter the cards special number (careful scratching off that junk, you don't want to scratch off the number!) When you do this (or maybe before, I don't exactly remember) you will have a chance to 'build an account' if you have an registered ID on the apple site, I'd use this, otherwise build it now and expect to use it in the future, when you get to the credit card option, YOU CAN SKIP IT since you are entering a Music Card! (and yes, Paypal IS now an option, added a few months ago).
    Now, key point here, if you DON'T enter a alternate payment method, you will be STRICTLY limited to the amount on the card, which you will likely not match since they come in even amounts and everything else is x.99 or the like. So buy more if you drop low, your remaining credit amount will show on the window frame by your ID, you'll see.
    Special Feature (and this is what your after!): YES you CAN now add free tunes to your 'account'! (I don't know if there is a time limit to the cards credit {like some gift cards that allow 1 year from purchase} but doubt it, retailers have been phasing those out due to public {press} pressure) so be wary.
    And if and when you DO get a credit card or PayPal account, you can just click on your ID in the upper right and enter your account management page and update your account accordingly!
    NOTE: you mention something vaguely about "if i don't live in the states", well, if you don't live where you can get a card, or have someone who can send you one, then your SOL, but be careful about initial expenditure, if your farther than the US Virgin Islands, you may be outside Apple's legal agreement with the music industry, said agreement being that they will do what they can to enforce the restriction that titles from any country's 'store' will not be allowed to be sold to they outside said country. In short, if yoru in Japan, you can LOOK at any store, but you can only BUY from Japan! And if your not in any of the listed store areas, well, it's a dice roll, if your 'out there' consider it a 'dice roll' and I'd limit my initial experimental risk to the $15 card, you-know-what-I-mean? Apple does have the right and obligation to enforce their contracts with the music industry. So good luck.

  • ITunes store won't let me download Single of the Week!

    I click the button to download this week's free Single of the Week and nothing happens. All I can get it to do is play a preview, but it won't let me download. What's going on?!

    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • No new single of the week since week 51 last year

    Countries where has been the same single of the week since week 51:
    Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark
    The same song is It Is What It Is by Blood Orange. Last week the price went back up, but the page has not been updated or any new singles added.
    What is the issue?

    Well, I gave it a try, and it now appears, but it shows a CMA price of <album price> minus 99¢, instead of <album price> minus $1.98, and the song I previously downloaded (the "SotW-to-be") is not in the download queue, even though under the CMA version of the Album page, the song is not shown as "previously purchased."
    I guess I have some tag editing to do…
