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??

Some of my songs on iTunes on my computer won't play. It asks for my Apple ID which I enter to authorize the computer, then it tells me it's already authorized but still won't play. Ideas?

Thank you. This was working for a minute, now when I go to the store it says that iTunes has stopped working and shuts down. I tried reinstalling it, but it still having the same issue. Any ideas?

TS1389 I tried all these steps and iTunes still won't let me play songs I paid for... Every time I authorize, it repeats that it's already authorized, but won't play because it's not authorized ... Catch 22

Delete and redownload them if doing so is free in your country.

Songs that I bought from ITunes and play on my computer, will not upload to my IPhone because it says they are not authorized even though they are. How do I fix this?

These songs were fine when I originally bought them, they play on my computer, and even played on my old Iphone. I have deauthorized and authorised my computer serval times, but nothing seems to fix it. What do I do?

Like this:

Some of the songs I have downloaded onto i tunes won't play when I select it to do so. The error message I get is "The song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" How can I get my songs to play?

Some of the songs I have downloaded into i tunes won't play when I select it to do so. The error message I get is "The song can not be used because the original file can not be found. Would you like to locate it?" When I select yes I'm sent to a screen that has my i tunes library listed. When I select the song in question I'm asked if I would like to open the song. When I select this option I get nothing. The songs I have downloaded must be somewhere because they are listed in my i tunes library and on the screen I've been sent to. I can't the songs to play however. This is not true of all of my songs but it is true of quite a few of them. Actually, one song is too many. How do I get my music to play that seems to be locked up somewhere in the computer?

Presuming they're on your computer, right click on them and then follow the prompts to locate hte file on your computer.

Computer won't play music thru itunes, CD's nor library???

itunes will not play anything, and my computer won't play CD's either. It's like it doesn't even recogonize that there is a CD in the drive. I checked and the driver seems to be there in the list of programs, but it won't work. can't import CD's to itunes or play them. but the wierdest part is my computer won't play the music I have in my itunes library either. No go. what could the matter be?

Sometimes, my computer would be a pain and it took me forever to for the CD to load. About the playing music thing I don't know, but I think the not recognizing CDs is pretty normal. Unless you have a really high speed computer, have you tried defragging it?

You need to plug your iPod back in and copy the songs from the iPods memory onto your MBPs hard drive, and then import the songs into your iTunes library from there.
I'm guessing that before you were simply clicking a song from your iPods memory to play it in iTunes, so whenever you tried to access the song without the iPod plugged in, your MBP couldn't find it.

My computer won't play videos from site like the Daily Show and the CW, but they stopped working last week. I have the newest version of Adobe player. Anyone know why the full videos will not play?

I failed to mention that the sound does play on the videos that are not playing.

Hey megatony87,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are having authorization issues with a purchased album on your computer. The following article may help to resolve your issue:

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.

My computer won't play videos..

My computer won't play videos on news sites or videos I have successfully uploaded and others have viewed on Facebook. It's fairly new- do I need a new version of Safari? I have version 5.0.

Do you have the Flash player installed? If not, go to Adobe and install the newest version.

I'm having problems uploading video taken with my iPhone 4 to Photobucket. FB will not accept the file extension which is ex. IMG_423. They will play on my computer and will upload to Facebook. Why is the phone taking video with this file instead of so

I'm having problems uploading video taken with my iPhone 4 to Photobucket. FB will not accept the file extension which is ex. IMG_423. They will play on my computer and will upload to Facebook. Why is the phone taking video with this file instead of something like .mov or mp4. How can I change the extension after the fact and avoid it in the future?

You said, "the 4 also has signal and wifi whereas the 5 has only wifi". By "signal", I'm assuing that you mean cellular signal. If so, that means your iPhone 4 is still active on your cellular number and your iPhone 5 is not. Contact your carrier to sort out which phone is active on your account.

How can I delete my photos on my Iphone 5 that was sync from my computer? It seems that photos that have been sync from computer is unable to delete on Iphone. Grrr IT *****!

Photos than came from computer will need to be uncheck on computer then do a sync to delete.
You can only delete photos from your Camera Roll directly.
