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.

  • ITunes single of the week not free?

    I tried to get the single of the week from the iTunes Store, "Can't Say No" by Conor Maynard. The problem is that when I open the page to download the song, it says that the song costs $1.29.
    Screenshots:
    Note: I use the Brazilian iTunes Store.

    They don't have a section for free tracks as of today, so if the Canadian iTunes Store did at one time, then apparently they've ceased to offer them at least temporarily. It may be that they just couldn't negotiate anything with a record label for this week and with luck there will be a new free track in the future. We have no way of knowing. though.

  • Free Download (Single of the week) not updated

    Anyone have any ideas why (in the UK store at least) the free single hasn't been updated this week?

    Seems to have been updated now - wonder what the 2 day delay was for???
    Oh well - thanks for your help anyway!

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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......

  • Can I set up automatic download of the iTunes free single of the week?

    Hello! I was just curious how to set up automatic download from iTunes for the free single of the week. Any help would be appreciated!

    You cannot.

  • 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.

  • What happened to the free Single of the Week download?!

    I logged into the iTunes Store, clicked on the "Free on iTunes" section, and was shocked that the free Single of the Week is no longer there! It's bad enough that they got rid of the Discovery Download, Spanish Discovery Download, and Video of the Week, but now the Single of the Week is gone too? What?!

    Yes, I noticed the same thing.  I've been downloading the free single of the week for many years now and have discovered a lot of good music that I otherwise would never have been exposed to.  I hope it's just an oversight . . .

  • Where is "Free Single of the Week" on iTunes 12?

    I do not see Free Single of the Week on iTunes since I "upgraded" to version 12 on my PC. Where did it go?

    The problem persists with the updated SotW.
    I was able to workaround the problem downloading the songs from an iPad with iOS 6.1.3 and another Mac with Snow Leopard and iTunes 10.6.3.
    The problem also persists using the guest account of my Mac. So the problem may be related to something specific of the Mac.

  • Vega4 "Life is Beautiful" Single of the Week: Can't Download

    When I try to download this weeks single of the week I get this message:
    "Purchase of this item is not currently available
    This item is being modified. Please try again later."
    What's going on here? I've been trying to get this free single since it was released yesterday.
    Thanks!

    There might be a problem with the server that covers your area not properly synchronizing. I'd suggest you contact the iTunes Store customer support department through the form at the bottom of their web page and let them know about the problem.

  • 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.

  • 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.
