Have you actually played it in iTunes?

    Since all of your music came from your computer in the first place, then it should still be there and should be included in your backup copy of your computer.
    " it told me when i pluged hers in 2 ipods could not use the same account"
    This is not true.  You have misunderstood.
    You can sync as many ipods/iphones/ipads as you like to one one library.

  • Cannot add songs bought from ITunes store on my IPad. The reason given is to Run the ITunes in to remove ITune which I do not want to do

    You don't have any choice but to restore your phone.  If the phone is still working, be sure to back up your contacts first.  Since iTunes can't read your phone you can download the app My Contacts Backup, which will back up your contacts as an email attachment.  Send this email to yourself; you can later open it on your phone and tap the attachment to re-import your contacts if necessary.  When done, click on Restore (on the Summary tab) and let iTunes do its thing.  Be careful to watch the progress information at the top of iTunes as well as your iPhone screen so that you do not interrupt the restore process until it is completes.

  • New ipod - skipping songs bought from iTunes

    I recently bought a new ipod 30GB. The library has sync'd to the new iPod, as has the songs pucrhased from the iTunes website. However when I play these songs (the ones purhased from iTunes), it skips through them very quickly without playing any of them?
    Can anybody help me? Should I take it back to Apple?

    I have a 60GB Ipod and it is doing the exact same thing.
    Puchased songs just skips right thru. I went to apple store
    where I purchased and they wern't much help. I was told to
    go home and do a restore. Didn't help at all so I called
    the applecore support and they had me do another restore.
    This did not work either so they had me ship it back to them. Once they received it they claimed it was fine. Well
    they must not have tried going into my purchased from itunes directory. They had the nerve to not replace it.2 weeks and 6000 miles later it still will not play the purchased songs from ipod. I want to say that originally
    when i purchased the songs from itunes they played. So it's like one day it just stopped playing all purchased from itunes music. Just wanted to let you know it's not you
    there is a major issue here and it started around 3 weeks ago. I beleive they know there is an issue but won't admit it. Shame as I almost was gonna convert from windows to an
    apple computer not now though. Like I said they have given me the runaround here and im more than dissatified im really ****** @ this point. So for now all we cando is listen to music that we bought from CD's & added to ipod.
    You would think that they would want this type of problems
    fixed as they stand to lose money if I can't play purchased from itunes music Im sure not gonna buy it from them to have it start to play and then skip thru the 60 sonfs I purchased from them. Sorry to give you the bad news,but I think we are screwed.

  • Can't update ipod with songs bought from itunes store

    I buy songs from itunes store and can't get them on the ipod. they are on the itunes library just fine - just can't get them over to the ipod. Get the message "some of the tunes in the library were not copied because your ipod software is too old.... - but I have the up to date software on the ipod - I get the message - "your ipod software is up to date" - - too frustrating - I buy songs but can't get them on the ipod - - any suggestions??

    Please help!!
    For some reason yesterday, whilst browsing on iTunes, a computer error message came up and closed the site automatically..
    After that, the computer 'froze' on me, so I had no other option than to run System Restore, which, after 2 hours, got my system up and running again, although I had JUST remembered at that point, that ALL files etc would be completely deleted.
    I opened up iTunes and looked at my Library, and to my horror, I also hadn't originally thought about backing them up, as I knew they were all 'safely' on my iPod.
    I have just tried this morning to 'try' to upload tracks from the iPod onto iTunes. I tried this, BUT, it has completely deleted the tracks off there as well - all 985 of them!!
    Does anybody know WHETHER I will be able to recover all these tracks, short of contacting iTunes themselves?
    I feel so awkward about it!! Any sensible advice would be appreciated!!

  • IPod and iTunes library skip songs bought from iTunes

    I just bought the song "Wanted" by Hunter Hayes and a few other songs from itunes. All my other songs play just fine, but Wanted won't. Everytime I go to play it in my itunes library it says: "This computer is not authorized to play 'Wanted'. Would you like to authorize it?" so I type my username and password and hit the "authorize" button, and it says: "This computer is authorized" so I go to play it again and the same thing happens all over again. Then when I go to play it on my iPod, it skips over it and won't play. Does anyone know what to do? It annoys me that a song a PAYED for won't work.

    Remove the downloaded purchase and then redownload it at no cost via iCloud. This has fixed this authorization issue for a number of users.

  • IPod will not play songs bought from iTunes more than once

    None of the songs I have purchased from the iTunes Store play on my iPod. They play on my Mac, my wife's Mac and my wife's iShuffle, but not my iPod. My iPod is running the lastest software version, and i have the latest iTunes version.
    If I format, reset, restore and reload my music, HOORAH!! they play...ONCE. Then I have to do that all over again if I want to play them again. The songs say they are there, they say they are taking up hdd space, but if I try to play the iPod just thinks about it for a second or two and then skips over the song.
    I have never had any problem with songs ripped off my CD collection.
    Apple are completely useless and offer no assistance and what i have been able to find on their website tells me to do what I've done. Does anyone have any ideas how to make my iPod compatible with the iTunes store?

    This just happened to me on one song I purchased from iTunes (it plays fine on iTunes on my MacBook). I'm on iTunes 8.0 (haven't yet upgraded to newest version). Everything else works fine so should I do this for only one song - or is there another easier fix? I did copy the song to a cd so would it work if I just deleted the one song and imported it? Or is this a sign of a deeper problem?

  • New songs from itunes wont sync to ipod

    I just downloaded a new cd from itunes, the boxes are checked but the cd does not sync to my ipod. I tried to do a manual sync & got a message that "you are not authorized to play them on this computer"
    Thakns for the help,
    Jack

    I too experiencing same problem - only since updating to latest version of iTunes. The only solution so far I've found is to sync iPod again - they play, but once iPod turned off for a while problem is there again. Has anyone got any solutions of a more permanent kind!?
    I've decided not to waste any more cash buying music until I solve this - as I also have a problem burning CDs (computer freezes), importing CDs (computer freezes).
    Thanks to anyone who can shed a glimmer of hope!

  • Songs Bought from Itunes on my new iPad won't transfer to iTunes.

    I have a major problem. I have never been one to download music for free. I dont have a problem with other people that do it, its just a moral ethical thing for me as I am an author who sells digital property and wouldn't want someone stealing my books. Anywho, All of my music is bought from my iPad on iTunes.
    Today, I went to back up my new iPad onto my PC and it kept comming up as "these songs couldnt be synced" or somthing to that effect. Which I just figured at first, it was a glitch. But then As it kept going, I realised it wasn't downloading ENTIRE boughten-on-itunes Albums, including one I just purchased, and two i purchased about a week ago. My friend just kept telling me it was because it was shared music, but it wasnt! All my music is bought off itunes!
    To make matters even worse, When I checked my iPad, The music I bought was GONE! It's about 30 bucks worth too. I'm aware that I can just redownload it onto my iPad because it comes up as purchased under my account. But I really don't wanna have to do that every single time I sync my new iPad. Is there any way to fix this? or does anyone know whats going on? Does this happen to you? I don't honestly know what it could be.
    Thanks!

    If your iPad is set up to sync normally with your iTunes library any purchases you make on the devce should automatically transfer to your iTunes library at the next sync. Alternatively you can set up both computer and device to automatically download any purchases made on other, even if you don't get around to syncing them for ages.
    If for some reason the iPad doesn't really treat your iTunes library as its "home" library, and threatens to erase content when you bring the two together, then see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • Videos and TV programmes bought from itunes wont sync

    I have bought some TV Programmes and videos from iTunes but despite ticking all the relevant boxes they wont sync to my ipod.
    IPod Touch 2nd Gen 8gb

    See:
    iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
    iTunes: Sync purchased HD videos to iPod or iOS device
    I suspect the items are HD version. Only the 4G and 5G can play/sync HD. If the suggestion in the above articles do not work you may to redownload an SD version (if available) by:
