Upgraded to XP-now puchased music wont copy to iPod

I Upgraded to Windows XP and reinstalled Itunes and now I get this message:
Some of the songs in the iTunes music library, including "Yeah", were not copied to the iPod "Alex's iPod" because you are not authorized to play them on this computer.
Any Ideas?

"What if I buy a new computer or upgrade to a newer version of windows when it comes out, eventually I will use up my 5 authorizations..and then what? I have to buy the music again? What a load of baloney!"
I'm sorry, I don't mean to sound rude, but you are criticizing something you don't understand correctly.
Before you do any of those things, you just need to deauthorize the computer, then reauthorize the new one. That way, you don't use up any of your 5 authorizations. If you forget to deauthorize a computer that you no longer have access to, you can contact iTMS customer support who will do it for you.
Could I suggest you give that document I linked to previously a thorough read, as it explains all about authorizing and deauthorizing computers.
I don't understand why you're getting so worked up about it. Apple aren't trying to cheat you. : )

Music Wont Copy to iPod - account trouble

I recently installed the new version of itunes. I think i already had an apple account on the last one, and with the new one accidentally set it up to use my aol acccount. So there may be two accounts on there?
However i bought some music from itunes and when i tried to copy it to my ipod it came up with a message saying it couldnt be copied because the ipod already had content from 5 or more accounts.
Does anyone know why this is happening and how i can fix it? (aside from restoring the whole thing?) thanks!

What do you mean by "on the days that should be marked"? Are you calendar events displayed on the wrong days?

I just updated software now my music wont play

I just updated my software to the 6.1.2 on my 4s now my music and sounds wont play. I have tried shutting down, making sure all sounds were on. Any idea what could be wrong?

I have the same issue. Some songs will play, but some just sit there when I select them.

Upgrading to Windows vista means itunes wont detect my ipod?? Help please.

Recently upgraded to windows Vista. Big whopdeedo.
But anyway, when I plug my ipod in, windows tries to update drivers for it, but of course failas horribly.
However, this is having a knock on effect that means itunes wont detect my ipod. So, while my ipod recharges, I cannot sync it. Thus I can't add new songs and what-not.
Please help.

Yes my ipod is jailbroken, but this has never proved an issue before.
Its not just itunes that now wont recognise my ipod, my other software wont either, and they used to work with the jailbroken ipod.
This all started after i synced a nano, then connected my ipod and a screen came up saying ipod camera connected.
I click on the camera icon in mycomputer and properties tab then selected take no action in the events tab.
This hasnt resolved my issue, and the ipod still comes up as a camera in mycomputer, the only difference being im now not prompted to choose a program to view my photos with.
This is really getting up my nose, as for the second poster, sorry that article was no help at all.
Please someone help me

Updated to 8.2 and now my music wont play.

i updated my itunes with the most recent version and now when i go into itunes and try to play a song nothing happens. It acts like it is going to play, but up top where the song displays the music timeline wont advance. Help!

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Upgraded Hard Drive, now Combo drive wont recognize. HELP!!!!

I upgraded my hard drive, installed the os-X (10.3.9 i think) and the cd combo worked fine, removed the combo to do somthing for the laptop (installed it in the iBook), and now when I put another combo drive (same model different drive) into the mini, the mini doesn't even recognize that there is a drive at all,
it will take a disk, but wont eject or mount.
what should I do?
should I put the original drive into the mini?
Also, i cant re-install OS-x because the optical drive wont mount in the mini, and the ibook says that It cannont use the software with the version that is installed on it (10.4.somthing)

There isn't a BIOS in G4 Mac systems - in essence, rather than having a pre-determined configuration, the system checks for existent components at startup such that if the drive in the system was recognised and had a viable driver, it would be functional.
First thing to do is check whether the system sees the drive at all. Go to the Apple menu and select 'About this Mac'. Then click the 'More info' button when the dialog box gives the MacOS version, processor and memory.
The click the 'ATA' tab on the left. You should see two entries - the first being the internal hard drive which will be shown in the lower portion of the right-hand pane by model and capacity. If the combo drive is not showing there with any entry (ie, there is only one ATA device, the internal HD) then more than likely the drive is not connected correctly as Boece has suggested. If it IS listed there and correct by model number, then it may be that the drive itself is faulty or the system's power management unit isn't controlling it correctly.
If the later is the case, a PMU reset may help. Try the following:
- Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord.
- Wait 10 seconds.
- Plug in the power cord while simultaneously pressing and holding the power button on the back of the computer.
- Let go of the power button.
- Press the power button once more to start up your Mac mini.

Upgraded to 9, now itunes store wont work/show up

I tried to purchase a program from Itunes (Follow your team - Cowboys) and was instructed to upgrade to 9. I did and now neither the store or the search function will work. The progress bar only goes half way and then freezes. I upgraded to Win XP service pack 3 (QT7 said it was required) and that didnt fix it. Uninstalled and reinstalled I Tunes according to the Apple instructions and that didnt work. My password works and I can access my account info and then a black toolbar shows up that lets me see most of the Itunes categories, but search still wont work, and if I try to access the store, it just freezes and then times out.
Please help, very frustrated.

Success!!!! My problem appeared to be an obscure anti virus program I thought I had removed a while ago. I uninstalled it ( and a bunch of other reaaly old crap) rebooted and thought it hadnt fixed when suddenly the progress bar started moving again and finally loaded the store. Apparently the av software was causing a conflict.

Upgraded to IOS5, now my music files are missing

Hi!
I am hopeing someone can help me
I updated to IOS5 a couple of days ago, and since then I have been trying to find a solution to the "missing music files" in my music library.
All 439 songs are listed in the Music Library, but when I double click one to play it, I get the following error:
The song "xxxxx" could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?
I click "Locate", it takes me to what I am guessing is the lastest iTunes Back-up called "iTunes Library 2011-10-12" I click on it but nothing happens.
Anyone have the same problem and fix it?
Any ideas/help will be greatfully received
Many thanks in advance
XXX

Same here. All the music I have installed from CDs is gone. It's gone from iTunes in the computer and, of course, from the phone.
Before I installed iOS5 I backed up. The restore put everything back except the music. Now I can't find it anywhere on my laptop
