Upgraded to v7.0.1.8 and can no longer play or download purchased music

I upgraded my software from a later version of v6 (6.9, I think). Since then, I have been unable to access my purchased music. I had purchased the music with a previous email address, which I updated using the site instructions. My account in iTunes is the same as always, my number of authorized computers the same, this computer is authorized. However, when I try to play a purchased song, I get a warning that I cannot play it because my computer is not authorized. The login popup comes up with my old account information. I did try using that, but of course, as that account now exists under the new email address, it is not a valid id. I use the new email address and login and am told that I am now authorized. When I click the song again, I get the same thing. I've authorized myself to play this song (and several others, to see if I got a different result) at least 10 times now and it still won't play. All that happens is that I am taken through the authorization process over and over.
Additionally, I have purchased three albums that will not download. I get an error -50 and am beginning to believe that they are related to this authorization nightmare. Please explain what I can do to fix this.

It gets even better... thought I'd add another audible book to my iPod so I could continue on the series I'm listening to. As soon as syncronization started, all my content on the iPod started disappearing. At first, I didn't figure out what was happening. By the time I did, I only had 4GB left of the 35GB that had been on the iPod. Now, I'm really irritated with you and your half baked software!!!!!
I've dropped back to v7.0.0.70, and everything is working again. It's 2am and if I were billing you time, I'd be making out very well now. Whatever happened to software quality assurance? There is an obvious breakdown in the newest iteration of iTunes. My current 'fix' is to drop back to a previous version until you all get a working 'current' version...but that's not really a fix. Please let me know if you have a real solution or not.

  • Upgraded my iPad to IOS 7 and can no longer play videos and podcasts

    Can anyone offer any advice?

    The videos are standard tv shows and movies from iTunes.  In the older IOS when I opened the 'movie' icon all I saw were the videos that I had downloaded to my iPad.  Now I get routed to something that looks like the 'purchased' section of the iTunes storeand it seems that I have to load every video from the cloud.  I'm not sure what I am doing wrong, but I would like to be able to watch video when I am NOT connected to wifi, like on a plane and such.

    They were already at v9 when Lion came out and decided that official support would be for v9 only; see here.
    According to this, the only thing PPC in v9 and v8 are video encoding for SWF export -- looks like an XTension according to System Profiler. Given their position of not officially supporting v8.x in Lion, that will probably always remain broken in v8. I use v8.5.1 in Lion; works fine for me -- I don't do any SWF exporting.
    I have a few other things on my MBP, recently upgraded to Lion; I upgraded just about every app to the latest versions with exception of Quark. The only  other PPC things besied that XTension are some scripts from Adobe Illustrator CS5.1, which got installed with CS 5.5. I guess Adobe forgot to upgrade those. No biggie, I never use them.

  • I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes.  Before iOS 8, movies played fine.  After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive.  Anyone else have a similar issue?

    I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes.  Before iOS 8, movies played fine.  After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive.  Anyone else have a similar issue?

    I checked with SanDisk's own online support and they indicate that they have notified Apple of the issue.
    According to SanDisk, the problem lies with Apple not having the iOS 8 version of the Safari browser having DRM decoding enabled that the Media Drive relies upon to decode and play iTunes DRM titles. Non DRM encoded videos will play in the browser.
    DRM audio is not effected as this is handled by the native iOS music app.
    As of the date of this post SanDisk have not been given a timeframe by Apple for this issue to be resolved.
    I hope that Apple resolves this issue quickly as I have a large collection of DRM video titles on a 128Mb memory card installed in the Media Drive that I am unable to view.

    I get an error message for all the Apple tutorial videos:  The file you are trying to play has failed to finish downloading and can no longer play."  What is wrong and how can I fix it?

    This means that you have downloadd the file from the internet, and the file did not download completely so the computer can't play it. To fix this, just re-download the file and make sure it finishes.

  • Installed Flash 10.2 and can no longer play Flip vidoes on Flipshare

    Hi, I'm looking for some help please as have got very frustrated and wasted far too much time on this! Thanks!
    I yesterday installed Flash 10.2 (specifically 10.2.159.1) and now can no longer play Flip videos on Flipshare. I had no problem with this on my previous Flash version (10.1 something I think), and also I don't seem to have issues with videos on other sites eg YouTube, BBC etc.
    I am no expert but have tried everything I can think of. Have uninstalled and reinstalled (several times), have tried in Firefox (same problem), upgraded to IE9 from 8 (same problem), did a full Windows update for Windows 7 (same problem), added the site flipshare.com to my safe list (same problem), checked the Add On in Tools (it is apparently installed and Enabled). I am now out of ideas and would very much appreciate some help!
    What makes this doubly frustrating is that I only installed 10.2 in the first place because I was trying to help my mum to install it over the phone so SHE could view Flip videos of our small baby (her first grandchild). She is on Vista and probably had a v old version of Flash which I thought was causing her problem (she could view them OK up to about a week or so ago), but now neither of us can play them!
    Any help or ideas very much apprecited!
    Thanks!!!
    Lep 533

    Many thanks indeed for trying to help!
    Yes that is the right site, it's a site where you view videos shared by people with a certain type of video camera (a Flip).
    Yes I can see the Flash animation on the login page fine, how odd ...
    And yes when I right click a video that has been shared with me I can see settings and global settings (and in fact went in there to disable hardware acceleration, but when I did it made no difference). In fact I can see the first frame of the video and it also shows the video's correct length in minutes, but when you press play the screen goes blank and nothing happens. As I think I mentioned, before I installed 10.2 I could play the same videos from this site with no problem ...
    Thanks very much again for replying, hope you can help further!

  • Updated to iTunes 7 and can no longer play music off my iPod through iTunes

    The title says it all. I can no longer play music from my iPod through iTunes now that I have upgraded. When I click on my iPod there is a little black lock beside where it shows the disk usage.
    anyone have any ideas. I like some of the new features of this version of iTunes but it really seems to be a few steps backwards.

    That little lock usually indicates that the iPod is set to autosync. In order to play iPod content through iTunes, you have to be on manual sync.

  • Can no longer play podcasts downloaded on itunes on 2nd generation shuffle, is there a fix?

    Ever since the latest version of itunes was unleased (Apple is so going downhill if this is any indication) my ipod Shuffle 2nd generation (I have 2) will not play podcasts downloaded on itunes. I get orange, green, orange, green lights and then nothing - because the ipod cannot recognize the files apparently. They both do the same thing, I load, they show up as loaded on itunes, I press play, the lights. If I download the podcast from the originator site directly, they play no problem. I have the latest update for the Shuffles, have reset them numerous times and yet the problem persists. I only use these Shuffles to load podcasts daily. I remove them as soon as I listened and then put new podcasts on the next day. Why do I have 2? Because I bought a second one when this started and I thought the Shuffle was broken - now both act exactly the same. Even old podcasts that played fine months ago will not play on the shuffle any longer. Is there any fix? I assume someone else is a podcast listener and is having this same problem and maybe has a solution.

    Switch the mode to single plat, not shuffle.

  • I recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mavericks and can no longer share files, does anyone have suggestions?

    I had to set up an appointment with the local genius bar to install Mavericks as I use WiFi and am very close to mountains which tend to interfere with clean downloads.  I am now unable to send work product via email as a PDF - I'm hoping someone has suggestions for me - or should I just make another appointment?   My thanks, Bobbie4886

    There could be many ways to be "unable to send work product via email as a PDF."
    Can you no longer create PDFs from your work product?
    Can you no longer find the PDFs when you try to attach them to an email?
    Do you get an error message when you try to attach them?
    Do you get an error message when you try to send the email?
    Does the email with the attachment disappear without a trace?
    Does your recipient not see the attachment?
    Does your recipient get an error message trying to open the attachment?
    Something else? What?

  • Upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 and can no longer use my Norton Toolbar. How do I go back to my old and usable Firefox?

    I utilize Norton Toolbar 4.6 and Firefox reports it is disabled because it is incompatible with Firefox 4.0.1. Since I utilize this functionality far more than any increased functionality in the new Firefox how can I go back to the previous version I was using? That was Firefox 3.6.17. Everything works and I am happy to wait until Norton supports the new version.

    Please do the following.
    Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.17] and download it to the desktop.
    Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to Mozilla Firefox and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box).
    Then reboot and delete the folder called Mozilla Firefox at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.
    Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.
    '''EDIT''': Keep an eye on this thread [http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/Norton-product-compatibility-with-Firefox-Updates/m-p/443808 Norton product compatibility with Firefox Updates]

  • UPGRADED TO ADOBE 11.0.06 AND CAN NO LONGER PRINT PDF'S RUNNING WINDOWS 64 BIT.  SAME ON 2 LAPTOPS

    When i hit print a pdf document since i upgraded , no document goes to my printer Q...nothing happens?
    Any fixes?
    Same is hapening on my wifes computer.

    Wow! At least it's not just me!
    I've been trying to do various tests, and now my results are a bit different:
    Going off Candace's notes:
    1) Doesn't work for me. This is what I used to do and want to do again: create a PDF from any application by clicking Print (eg, the Print link on web page) or pressing command-P. No file is created now.
    2) I didn't even know this option existed. It worked for me, but I don't want to print my documents there. I want to be prompted for a name and folder of my choosing in the dialog box.
    3) Oddly, this morning after reading Candace's response, I now only get prompted with one dialog box, not two. Again, I don't want to do this. I want it to work as before where after invoking Print I would be offered a dialog box asking me what to name the file and in which folder to create it.
    Thanks, Candace! I appreciate your post!
