I purchased an album on iTunes on my computer, and one of the songs will not play. Itunes says that I need to authorize my computer to play it, but it is authorized. What do i do?

I bought a song on iTunes, and it is on my iPad, but the song will not play, it skips to the next song. How can I fix this?

Just yesterday I downloaded the newest update for iTunes, a few days before doing this I purchased music, but after doing the update my songs will not play. It shows a message that says this file cannot be located, what can I do to find the location?

The path C:\users\owner\appdata\local\apple\apple software update\bonjour64.msi cannot be found. verify that you have access to this location and try again or try to find the installation package "bonjour64.msi" in a folder from which you can install the product bonjour.
Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on 25 June 2010. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

In an iPod Nano 6 songs will not play in A-Z order.

I have over 100 songs in one playlist. This concerns an iPod Nano 6. The songs are in alphabetical order on my Nano. The songs will not play in alphabetical order and skips around. How can I corredt this problem?

It's not a "problem," if the iPod is set to shuffle. On page 21 of the 6th gen nano's manual
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1551/en_US/iPod_nano_6thgen_User_Gu ide.pdf
find the shuffle button on the Now Playing screen (it looks like two arrows crossing). Tap it to toggle between shuffling the current song list and playing it in order.

Certain songs will not play on iPhone and also not in my iTunes library

My problem is that songs will not play on my iPhone that I have purchased and appear like this...
These songs also do not appear in my iTunes library and when I look at the album (or other songs with this problem) in the iTunes Store it appeaers like this...
As you can see it says "purchased" where it would usually say "play"
It'd be great if someone could help as I am completely baffled.
Thanks.

In settings on your phone: iTunes and App store - is "show all music" off? Is automatic downloads off?
Do you share the computer with other Apple users? Is it currently associated with another Apple ID?
The work around is open iTunes purchases on your phone and download directly to your phone that way.

I purchased a song a few days ago and downloaded the whole song and the song will not play all the way through it only plays 23 seconds. How do I fix this problem?

Thanks for this post. It corrected my similar issue. Note that you need to exit from/re-enter iTunes after deleting the song from your Purchased list.

Had to have my hard drive rebuilt in my PC (not Mac). When I reinstalled my music library from iTunes, several of the songs did not download properly - they appear in light colored ink on my library list but the songs will not play and will not synch

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.

I purchased a song from the itunes store and down loaded it to my ipod. The song will not play. I attempted to listen to it on my computer and itunes asked me to authorize my computer. I did so and it told me I authorized one out of five computers .

HT202213 When I have downloaded and paid for music several time the song will not play, saying that my computer is not authorized. When I follow insturction to authorize the computer says it already authorized and song or songs will not play...... Help.

Authorized music purchased will not play says unauthorized to play and when you follow instructions to fix the issue says authorized...

If only a few songs on an album are doing that, that suggests the tracks are damaged.

I have zinced songs from my PC to my iPad and it has copied all the songs on my pc but some are showing very faintly on my iPad and these songs will not play. I have tried to delete them but they will not stay hilighted and show delete to enable me to do

Can anyone help me to delete the faintly listed songs on my iPad which I have transferred from my Pc but they will not play on my iPad.

Thanks for trying to help me.
First, in you reply (and i've read this elsewhere), you imply that i need to check a box that says "manually manage music." OK, great, but where do i find such box? Is that on the iphone or in itunes? Also, i am afraid of losing what i already do have on my phone. I have about 150 songs, some of which were purchesed thru itunes, but most of which i "dropped and dragged" from my older computer with the older version of itunes. When i go to itunes with my iphone plugged in, all of the boxes are grayed out, except one at the top that says "Sync Music". When i check this box, i get an error warning that says "Are you sure you want to remove existing music, movies, TV shows, books, and tones from this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library? Music, movies, TV shows, books, and tones synced to [name of my iPhone] from other iTunes libraries will be removed and items will be synced from this iTunes library."
So, i have over 3000+ songs in my itunes library on my computer... obviously that isn't going to fit on my phone. So then, what is going to happen? I'll lose everything that is already on my phone PLUS it will NOT be able to sync?
Is now the time to buy a Zune?!? For the company that is supposedly "user friendly", Apple has really managed to screw this one up.
Thanks, John

I am not computer savvy. I have a second generation itouch, and have never had any problems. Just recently, certain songs will not play. It will skip the song to the next one. Certain videos will not play. The message, "This movie could not be played

I am not computer savvy. I have a second generation itouch and have never had any problems with it until now. When I try to play certain songs, it will not play the song and skip to the next song selection. When I try to play certain videos, the message "This movie could not be played" appears. I contacted a tech spec who said it was possibly a format problem. How do i fix this?

This might sound weird, but here's an idea which worked for me re music that was newly added to itunes and showed up in my ipod but wouldn't play - I simply played the tracks in itunes first, just a second of time or so will do it, not the whole track, then connect the ipod and sync again and this time they played - hope this helps.

My music appears in my purchased on iPhone folder but some songs will not play how do I get them to play?

My music is not playing, i have purchased onto my iPhone and now it will not play :-(

Hello Russell,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. The best way to get music back is to check out the articles that goes of downloading previous purchases.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

If they were not purchased through iTunes, then just sync through iTunes again.

Itunes not playing songs....getting an error message telling me the song will not play and cant be found

I have had an itunes account for a long time. recently i turned it on to get new songs and realized that alot of my old song are not playing. it shows the file, but when i try to play it tells me file can not be found. please help figure this out. thanks.

When you see a "file" in your iTunes library (inside itunes) it is not showing you the file. Select it in itunes and then get info - this will show you where the actual file is on your hard drive under the "where" bullet. Try this first for a song that is working. It will show where your library is, and you can then see how your library is organized.
Now try it for a song it can't find. You will probably get the same error, (can't find the file) However, then use widows to search your entire computer for the file. Hopefully by looking at the other songs that ARE there, you'll get a better idea of what exactly to search for.
Finally, when you "add" a song into iTunes, you can be given the option to "Copy" the file into your itunes library (recommended) or just leave a pointer (like a shortcut) to the file. If you choose this pointer/shortcut option, it can be pretty easy to delte/move the files by accident. If you move them, the shortcut/pointer will become broken.
