Turned on automatic downloads, now I have duplicates.

I purchased songs via my computer and turned on automatic downloads on my iPod touch. When I synced my iPod I had duplicates. I erased all my songs but the ones that got downloaded didn't dissappear. Now I don't know how to erase the purchased songs (duplicates/automatic downloads) from my iPod. I have duplicates on my iPod but not on my computer.

When I'm in the Music tab from my iPod touch the Show duplicates is grayed out. I wanna know how to delete them or something without deleting or reseting my iPod completely.

    HI ..
    On the new MBAir, open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Photo Stream then reselect it then restart your Mac.

  • How do I get my downloads to open automatically, right now I have to go find my download folder and click on it.

    How do I get my downloads to open automatically, right now I have to find where my download folder is each time and then find the file I just downloaded. My download pop up screeen is also blank.

    This should not have changed all by itself but it should be easy to change back
    *See [[Applications panel - Set how Firefox handles different types of files]]
    ** You should be able to choose to open .pdf files with Adobe. <br />Use Menu Button {Three bar icon) -> Options {cog icon) -> |Applications|

  • Can I turn off automatic download of Itunes Extras

    This has been asked before by someone else but they recieved no answers so I'll try again.
    Can I turn off automatic download of Itunes Extras.  I never use them and have to delete them and they hold up downloads of what I want?
    Thanks

    Thanks Michael. I had no idea that that menu was even there, and it seems odd that it's not accessible frome the regular menu bar (or is it??). But indeed, I do see it now and this may help. The reason I said this approach is still less than ideal is that it will require me to remember all of the accidental unflaggings between syncs to my computer, and then manually reflag everything.... and if I want to be sure to do it right I'll have to take notes etc, which is quite a burden just to get around something that used to work effortlessly and automatically until Apple "improved" it... But thanks!

  • I'm trying to turn on automatic downloads, but I see an alert that says 'This device is already associated with an apple ID.'

    I recently bought a new ipod 4 gen 32 G. I had an 8 g .I'm trying to turn on automatic downloads so when I buy a song from Itunes it automatically downloads without plugging it into computer to sync.  When I turn on Auto Downloads, It say...This device is already Associated with an apple ID You can auto-download purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days. You cannot associate this device with a different Apple ID for 30 days. When I click OK it turns th downloads off..Can someone help me? I've returned the 8g to regular factory settings as I'm giving it to a friend.

    You have to wait. See:
    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
    You can still sync the media from your iTunes library

  • How do i turn off automatic download and make it stay off

    I use the preferences in ITUNES to turn off automatic down loads and every time i start iTunes it  tries to force me to sign to an ICLOUD account and automatic download. I have tried everything I can find on apple help sites. But you Apple carefully stays away from the subject of how to make it stay off. I have 10.9.4 system
    and 11-3 (54) iTunes.

    Hello, jadetorchwood. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Here is an article that I would recommend going through when experiencing error -50.

    Something may have gone amiss on your iPhone.
    To attempt to correct this follow these steps:
    Backup your iPhone using iTunes or iCloud.
    Use iTunes to completely restore your iPhone as Factory new.
    Monitor battery usage to see if it is normal. If not, you may have a hardware problem - if so, contact Apple support.
    Restore your iPhone from your backup above.
    Check battery usage to confirm that it is still normal.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities,
    I had a similar issue and it was an easy fix for me. First you need to log out of your account completely in the Mac App Store. Quit the application. Re-open the Mac App Store. Click log-in, enter your Apple-ID and password. Now when the screen pops-up that has all of your billing/credit card information on it DO NOT select done. Instead select View my Account, then select View hidden purchases. There you should be able to find iPhoto. Hope this helps if not let me know. I'm still searching solutions for you.

  • Cannot turn on Automatic Downloads

  • HT201210 After updating to IOS 6 I no longer had playlist in music, I turned on Match and now I have 2 of every playlist

    after updating to IOS 6, I went out to mow my yard and listen to my music via bluetooth headset as I have done all summer.  But to my surprise there was no longer a playlist not one!!!!!   so after mowing and listening to one album I tried turning on Match and now I have 2 of every playlist.
    I realize that there will be a few glitches when upgrading a new system.  I would like to see Apple come up with a simple way to contact Apple to let them know about these new problems.  This is only one of them and there are a few more on the iphone and even more on the newest ipad.
    for instance I buy 64gb iphones and ipads, because I do not want to stream my photos or music I do not always have access to wifi or cellular.  Plus with over 5,000 songs and 15,000 photos it takes to long so I want to store them and us sync to save changes.  I have a very advanced setup. with outdoor entertainment around the pool "covered" in the party room, in the house, in the RV outside the RV. The list goes on.  I want my picturesand music stored!!!! not all Streamed.  when ever we try to stream pictures or music for one of my parties there are freezes and hangups.  Not something I like when I have 60- 100 friends over.  Storeing all this to a device should be easy when I USB it to my IMAC!!!! also when I take pictures around my party and then the Apple TV fails to keep up streaming I plug the iphone into a source to the stereo's and the **** thing starts sending all my photo stream through the wifi to the computer and now it will not play music or photos until it is finished.   Here I go again with all these guest saying  I thought you said apple was better!!!!!  we need to be able to select when we want sync to happen to prevent this with out turning off icoud or phot stream.

    I am back with an update. I turned off Match on both the ipad and the iphone 5. By doing so I was able to sync my Iphone and ipad to itunes and store the music on my devices rather than the slow streaming.  So far this has fixed my problems with the iphone I have all my music, playlist, most of the album art and so on.  But the ipad is a different story.  I have the music and artist but not one playlist  I am sure Apple will have an upgrade soon that will address these issues they are usually very good about this. 
    Now have any of you experienced another problem that has existed as long as I have used faces in Aperture.
    I have over 200 faces and they are organized a-z problem is I have this going on A-Z folowed by a few that start over A-Z followed by another few A-Z and again a 4th time A-Z.  Imagine how difficult it is while I am showing someone the great features of my iphone, ipad and imac.  Which I do talk highly of all the time.  But how do I explain that even though their name starts with a or b or what ever they are not important enough to me to be in the first list of A-Z or even the 2nd or 3rd list of A-Z someohow they are in the 4th section of the list!!!!
    I have managed to get the Imac to fix this but for some reason the IOS devices do not.   Any ideas?
    Thanks Al

  • Turning off 'automatic downloads'

    For the last few weeks, whenever I connect my iPhone (and possibly my iPad) I get an iTunes window asking me to "enter account name and password" for 'automatic downloads'. I don't understand what 'automatic downloads' are, and iTunes Help doesn't tell me how to stop this window popping up (Help just tells me how to set up automatic downloads).
    Anyone here know what it's all about, and how to stop it?

    This is a feature that lets you automatically receive items purchased from other devices.  Things you buy from your computer can be pushed to your iPhone, iPad, etc.  Things you purchase on your iPhone can be pushed ot your computer, iPad, etc.
    If you don't want this:
    In iTunes, go to Edit/ Preferences/ Store and turn off automatic downloads.
    On all your iOS devices, go to Settings/ Store/ and turn off automatic downloads.

  • How do I turn off automatic downloads of newspapers that I have in the Newsstand?

    On my iPad I want automatic download, but on my iPhone I only want to download manually. I can't find where to change that setting in iOS7...
    Every day when I wake up my iPhone have downloaded the latest issue of my daily newspaper that I subscribe to, but if I forget to delete these it takes up a lot of space on my iPhone. Therefore I only want to download the newspaper manually on the iPhone when I need to.
    Thanks in advance.

    Go to system preferences>app store. Uncheck "automatically check for updates."

  • HT1267 my iphone restored automatically, and now i have lost everything, including apps, contacts, texts etc...i cannot retrieve apps from my itunes as my new itunes did not have all the apps, due to rebooting my comp..can someone help on how i can retrei

    My  phone  automatically restored, and now i have lost everythig apps,contacts,texts..i mean everything.... and my itunes does not have anything as my computer had to be reboot,due to a new hard disk...
    Can someone help,i really need my contacts  back asap....

    well i put my phone on charge, when the connect to itunes icon appeared.therefore, resulting in restorage of the phone.
    The prompt to connect to iTunes is automatic, but not the restore process. You must manually select restore. There is no automatic restore.
    in order to re-download apps, i will need to re-purchase...and i cannot afford the amount,
    Read the link I provided. Had you done so, you would know you do not have to re-purchase apps when re-downloaded.
    but to be honest, i am concerned about my contacts. which have completely disapeared and i just want them back.
    Unless your contacts were synced with a supported address book app on your computer as designed and intended and your contacts were included with your computer's backup, or unless your contacts are available online with a free Apple iCloud account, with a free Yahoo account, or with a free Gmail account with all providing the ability to sync contacts over the air, your contacts are gone.
