Songs that have been bought from itunes will not play on iphone5

I have a new iphone 5 just updated today to new software. I have synced with laptp and put 35 songs on. I bought two songs from itunes store to set as ringtone but these two songs ONLY will not play. Can anyone suggest any reason for this?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • TS3159 Some songs that I've bought on iTunes won't play on my iPhone 3GS even though they used to and they will still play on iTunes.  Anyone know what I can do to get these songs to play on my iPhone again?

    No, I haven't figured it out.  And no one from Apple has contacted me to help.  Very frustrating.  Sure makes me want to not buy music on iTunes and just buy CD's.
    Do you have a 3GS too?  Maybe it's something with that phone??

  • I have converted a number of songs to mp3 format on my iMac, is there a way to view just the songs that have been converted in iTunes?

    I have converted a number of songs to mp3 format on my iMac, is there a way to view just the songs that have been converted in iTunes?

    You can view tracks in a given format by selecting to show the Kind column. If you mean you want to determine which specific MP3 tracks you have that were converted by iTunes as opposed to being imported in MP3 format, Get Info on a track and look at the "encoded with" field.

  • I recently upgraded from an iphone 4 to a 4s, but now all songs purchased from iTunes will not play via my phone. Any idea how to fix this problem?

    I upgraded from an iphone 4 to a 4s, after a few initial problems and two restores, everythings seemed to be working...until I went to play some music, all music loaded to itunes via CD's played, but ALL purchased music from itunes does not play...i click on the song and the screen flashes to the image then goes back to the list of songs, so the purchased music shows up...just does not play.  Can anyone help resolve this problem? Thanks!

    here is an interesting thing: take the iphone and set lock screen to never. Now make an email with siri--be sure to activate her with call button. get to the body and get some text in there. then just stop talking. LOCK SCREEN APPEARS!!!!!! and of course you draft is gone.
    There does seem to be a work around for some--maybe all these issues. Don't use the call button--use the buttons on the phone.
    Siri seems to behave properly with scenerio above---sans call button. She does not go to lock.

  • TS4124 I have a problem that when I sync my ipod with I tunes it only syncs the songs that have been downloaded from the cloud.

    I have 9000 songs in the cloud and have not downloaded all of them
    My ipod does not sync the songs that have not been downloaded.
    Do i have to download all the playlists individually?
    Help

    Here's how iTunes works.  You add a file to iTunes. iTunes makes a note of where that file is located, gets information from it about artist, etc, and writes the information to its library file.  iTunes doesn't look at that file again until you play it.  It knows where to find it when it needs it.  However, sometimes things happen so the file is no longer where iTunes expects it to be.  In many cases this is because the user has renamed  a file or folder in the file's pathway, or moved the file.  In extreme cases it can happen because a hard drive is dying.
    When iTunes invites you to find the file, it is asking you to do exactly that.  If you renamed the file you need to remember what you called it and where you put it and point to it to rebuild the link.  Sometimes if people move all their files to  different drive you need to point to one and iTunes may be able to find others given that information and assumptions as to where the others should be located relative to that.
    It is also possible files have gone missing.  In that case you need to restore them from their original source  or a backup you make regularly of your computer knowing that some day it is 100% guaranteed your drive will fail and you will be very happy you have a copy of everything on another drive.

  • When I try syncing to my Ipod nano, it will only let me sync songs that have been downloaded onto my computer (not my icloud music). How do I fix this?

    This is really annoying. When I try syncing, it shows the four songs that have actually been truly downloaded on my computer, and it wont let me change it. What does I do?

    iDevices are not backup devices.
    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.

  • Music not purchased from iTunes will not play on iPhone after iOS5 update

    Music that I have purchased from iTunes syncs perfectly to the iPhone (3GS) but the music from my library that was not purchased from iTunes (burned from a CD) will show up in the iPhone music list but does not have any artwork nor will it play that music!  Currently my solution has been to delete the defunct music from the iPhone and recopy it from iTunes.  The music will then play but the artwork is missing.  This is a rather irritating problem.  Is anyone else having this issue?  If so, any are any other solutions?  Thanks!

    I have just noticed that I am missing songs since I upgraded to iOS5.  In some cases the art work is there and the length of the song is there but it will not play.  I'm going to try and resync when I get home.  I'll have to check to see if the songs still exist in my iTunes???  Nothing is ever easy is it??

  • Music purchased from itunes will not play on nano.  shows up, but skips ove

    Help, all purchased music from itunes store will not play on nano, it appears but then skips to the next song.

    Hi there
    Welcome to Discussions
    It seems that you've posted your question in the wrong forum. This is the intel-based iMac forum. You will get a better answer if you post your question in the appropriate forum:
    iPod nano forum:
    http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=154
    I don't know what generation of nano that you have, but I know that if you have a colored nano (blue, green, pink, silver or matte black), you'll want to post in the "2nd Generation" category. Otherwise (either white or black front and silver back) you'll want to post in the "1st Generation" category.

  • ITunes freezes when I try to find songs that's been removed from iTunes media 'locations' but the songs are still on the computer..

    I know where to find the songs.. I know how to move them into iTunes.. sh*t still doesn't work. It freezes whenever I try to move the songs back.
    iTunes being heavy and slow.. only program on my computer that takes longer than opening internet explorer

    iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

  • Any way to create a smart playlist on iOS of songs that have been downloaded from the cloud?

    Of my 72gb library it's hard to remember what has been downloaded from the cloud to my iPhone.  It would be great if there was a way to have my tracks be dumped into some sort of playlist to easily access what has been downloaded.  Anyone know of way to do this?  Or recommendations on an easier way to keep track of downloaded tracks?

    These all work fine on my mac but again, I was wanting the smart playlist on my iphone.  I could download songs from the cloud on my mac (which wouldnt make sense anyways since it's where my entire library is) but this defeats the whole purpose of accessing my music through my phone and icloud and not having to sync or make playlists on my mac.
    Let me ask you guys this, every time you want to listen to something on your iOS device, do you wait for it download?  Do you remember everyhting you've downloaded and only listen to those tracks?  What's your method for listening to music on your device?
    Really dissapointed in Match....it's basically a back up service.

  • Some of my songs that I've purchased from iTunes will play correctly on my itouch, but then on my itunes they play a completely different song, and it's the wrong song.

    I don't know how to fix my itunes so that it will play the correct song. I do not want ot plug my itouch into my computer because I'm afraid it will mess up my songs on my itouch, which are playing the correct song.

    Once you successfully add you iTunes library to iTunes Match, you go to Settings>iTunes & App Store on your iOS device and turn on iTunes Match.  Your iTunes Match library will then appear on your iOS device.
