Unable to play recent downloaded music

I have recently purchased 2 albums...they have downloaded and show as purchased, however, I am not able to play the music and albums do not show up in my library under albums or recently purchased music.

    I have exactly the same problem.  Very frustrating when we've paid for the songs and can't play them.  Does anyone know if this is a bug with E71?

  • I recently downloaded music from the iTunes store but it doesn't play on my iPod

    I recently downloaded music through the iTunes store and synched it manually to my iPod nano (5th generation) and while it shows up on my iPod when I scroll through my list of artists/songs/albums it will not play any sound if selected and will not play through at all. At the very best all it will do is skip ahead 1 to 2 songs. What do I need to do?
    I think it's also worth noting that the songs work on my other devices (laptop and iPad mini) absolutely fine with zero issues.

    I had some time finally figuring why I could buy and download from the Itunes store, but could not load it on my IPOD. What finally worked was plugging my IPOD in to the computer, as I would when "syncing", and, after loading, it would show my device in the side bar. You have to go to VIEW in the top Tool Bar and click on SHOW SIDE BAR in the drop down menu. "SUMMARY' tab, on top, is what I clicked on to show an option of restoring my IPOD to the factory defaults. It erases everything on the IPOD, but gives an option of AUTOFILL afterwards, which it does from the computer. This is one solution of many you could try. Good luck.

  • I need help accessing recently downloaded music on my ipod

    I recently downloaded music from my PC to my ipod.  I can play that same music through other computers but can not see it in my ipod music directory for selecting that music for direct play.

    Hi dljewkes,
    If you are having issues syncing music to your iPod nano, or the music you synced isn't showing up on the iPod for some reason, you may want to double check the syncing steps as outlined in the following article to make the music is being synced properly:
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
    If the iPod still isn't recognizing or playing the synced music, you may want to try restoring it to factory settings and syncing again:

  • Unable to play half my music with itunes

    Ever since this new version of itunes, i've been unable to play half my music in my library. The music is there, but when i try playing it nothing happens. The song doesn't start. i've tried re-adding a few songs to itunes, but those songs never reappeared in the library list. i've tried reinstalling itunes. I'm not sure what the problem is and its getting frustrating. Any help would be great.

    Sounds like they might be MP3 files with corrupt headers. Run them through MP3 Validator to see what MP3 Val says about them.
    Longer explanation:
    http://trevinchow.com/blog/2008/09/17/fix-for-mp3-songs-not-playing-in-itunes/
    It's an old webpage, but still valid today with itunes v10.
    As to why this happened, data corruption on hard drives can be caused by many things, but the first to check is always power. Is your PC on a power surge protector?

  • Unable to play songs Downloaded from Nokia Ovi Sto...

    Hi,
    I bought Nokia N8 when it was launched. I was using another laptop and music download and playback were working fine there.
    Recently i have changed my laptop and Have registered it for Music download through Nokia Ovi Suite and Music player.
    I am able to download songs but when i try to play them it throws a message that it needs to install Microsoft DRM software, after i click OK. It either simply hangs or errors out and closes.And the songs show a orange triangle next to them.
    Have googled the problem as much as i could but cannot make any sense of the error. Have tried playing downloaded songs from Ovi Suite and Ovi Music player. Both are causing the same problem.
    When i try playing the Downloaded songs through Windows media player, It tries searching for Security update then errors out saying that it cannot find the update.
    I am running Windows XP SP3 with all Windows updates installed.
    Any help in resolving the issue would be Highly appreciated. If there are any Nokia people here, Kindly help me, Its very irritating to download songs and then not be able to play them
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    I have actually progressed a bit but it is not for the faint hearted and will not work for most:
    1. I had an image of my installation from last year when my OVI PC installation worked so I rolled back to that. That suddenly allowed me to play most of the titles I had downloaded prior to when the image was made.
    2. Unfortunately this did not allow me to play the titles I had downloaded post the image creation. I have tried just about all solutions on the web including MS DRM fix up and installing a new DRM folder.-nothing worked. However, the other day I copied the drmstore file only from my most recent installation before the rollback and it seem to have the DRM information for more then 60% of my music titles. 60% of 38000 titles is a lot better then 10% of 38000. It is now running with my older OVI Music software.
    3. I have spoken to Nokia numouros times; the click one title at a time still means I have to take half a year off work; the techs have intimated (not promised) that the greying out of all titles after downloading one title may be removed - here is to hoping!
    In summary: if you have older backups by the actual drmstore file you may be able to retrofit it in the DRM folder and it may work. I am not game to try with a more recent OVI player upgrade so I will keep playing the one year old installation.

  • How do i play my downloaded music?

    I can download music from itunes, but when i return to itunes a day later, i'm unable to generate the music...
    and the music is listed,,,what button do I need to push?? thank you

    Your downloaded and synced music should be in the iPod app, and you just tap on the artist/album/track to select and play it.

  • My iphone4 stopped playing my downloaded music, how do i get it to play

    My Iphone 4 has quit playing downloaded music, how do I get it to play again?

    If this is music purchased from the iTunes store, try going to Settings>iTunes & App Stores, tap your Apple ID, sign out, then sign back in.  If it still won't play, try force-closing the Music app: from the home screen, double-tap the home button, locate Music in the list at the bottom, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it.  Then try playing your music again.

  • HT1351 My phone is not synching with itunes to upload recently downloaded music as well as a new playlist I created.  I have never had this issue before.  I have rebooted both comuter and iphone.  Any suggestions...

    I recently downloaded some new music from the itunes store and created a new playlist.  My phone will not sync with either the new music or playlist, this has never been an issue before.  I have rebooted both my comuter and my phone.

    Why is it not syncing?
    Any errors?
    Is the device detected in iTunes?

  • I cant get my recently downloaded music from my phone to my laptop.

    I cant get my newly downloaded music from my phone on to my laptop. It usually just does it automatically when it syncs, but it hasn't this time and i cant get it on there. I have even went on to file> transfer purchased items. All that does is transfer my apps and no music, any ideas would be great thanks!

    make sure you have the music box checked when snycing your iphone 4

  • TS1717 unable to preview or download music

    unable to preview or download music

    Hi gobill, I received your .muse file from technical support. Your file has exposed a bug. At this point I haven't diagnosed whether or not it's new in 7. Regardless, I'll work on a fix. In the meantime you can avoid this error if you define and apply graphic styles for the four states of the tabs in the accordion on your home page.
    Sorry for the inconvenience. Let me know if you need further help.

  • Having got windows 8 and another computer I now cannot play previous download music

    Having downloaded music in the past, I now find I cannot access it since I upgraded my computer.
    I get a message telling my computer is not recognised.

    Also, you are aware that simply installing iTunes does not cause media to magically appear on the computer, correct?

  • Playing iTunes downloaded music on 2nd computer not hooked up to Internet

    I am aware that I can authorize a second computer to play my downloaded iTunes; however, what if the second computer is not going to be hooked up to the internet? Is there a way to authorize an additonal computer without the need for the computer to have internet access?

    Sorry, no. Authorization requires that the computer be hooked up to the internet long enough to get it authorized.
