Weird thing buying on iTunes.

Hi,
Yesterday I lost my credit card so I cancelled it.
Today I bought a song and a music video on itunes with that credit card because I forgot I had cancelled it and the transaction went through and they got downloaded.... Now this is weird so I called to check if it had been cancelled and indeed it had been. I also checked my bank statements online and nothing was there about the purchases.
So my question is, how can this have happened?

My guess is that the next time you try to buy something from Apple--you're going to have some problems. I would make sure my new credit card information was attached to my account and I would explain this dilemma to Apple. (And you need to pay for these things you just bought!)
Or, you can wait until you try to make your next purchase and find out things no longer work.
Sometimes it takes awhile for the credit card company to refuse canceled credit card purchases--the card holder isn't inconvenienced (lucky you!), but the supplier (Apple in this case) trying to redeem a sale on the account gets dinged. Be warned, when this happens to a merchant, they remember you! You may have problems fixing things! Good luck!

Macbook Pro slow start up, freezing on Safari, weird things on iTunes

I have a mid-2012 Macbook Pro and it's never seemed to operate optimally. It's slow to start up and sometimes freezes on Safari pages. ITunes is difficult to navigate and does weird things. I haven't done the latest update because we don't have Wi-Fi at home. Could it be that or could I have a hardware problem? Thanks!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

HT204411 i live in indonesia an it appears i couldnt find any songs or albums to buy in itunes store... so how can i buy this things???

i live in indonesia an it appears i couldnt find any songs or albums to buy in itunes store... so how can i buy this things??? is there another way for me to buy songs or albums in itunes store??

They are not currently available in Indonesia, so you won't be able to buy them from Apple. Do you have access to other music purchase download sites ? You can also copy your own CDs via your computer's iTunes.

MacBook won't turn on 98% of the time, help! Very weird things happening!

Hi there, any advice you have for me would me much appreciated. What happened with my Macbook is all very strange.
So, the morning before last, I was on my Macbook (which I bought in 2006 so it's on the older side, but otherwise worked great) and it was running low on battery. I was late for work so didn't plug it in before leaving. I left it open. However I have no roomates, pets, etc.
When I get home that evening, I plugged in the powercord and it wouldn't turn on. After trying a million different things, like taking the battery out, reseting the PRAM, etc, there were a few times where I got it to turn on, went through the log on screen, and was able to use my computer like normal for about 5 minutes or so, and then it would just shut off.
There were also many times when I would pres the power button and the screen would flash like it was about to turn on, and then it would make the noise that the computer makes when you're typically on 0% battery and it shuts down. Later in the night, when the computer was closed but plugged into the power outlet, it was by itself (meaning I wasn't pressing anything) making the noise that it was restarting. It made that noise about every 30 seconds for a few minutes. Weird.
It was also doing inconsistent things re: the sleep light. At times it was on, including when the computer was closed, and sometimes it would go from on to off. Also, the battery/charing was doing weird things. The few times I was able to get past the log in screen it showed that it was at 0%, even though the light on the adapter was green and it had been plugged in for a long time. Another time the battery icon had an X through it. I have 2 different batteries and neither one of them seemed to make a difference.
Also, yesterday I brought my computer into the Apple store and they put in a battery that was charged and it didn't seem to make a difference either. One more weird thing: when I did get the computer on in the spotlight bar it said it was indexing??
Anyways, I'm just confused/upset, etc. because I literally did nothing to the computer. I didn't drop it/spill on it, etc. I'm also frustrated because the guy at the genius bar litteraly only spent like 5 minutes looking at before he said i was SOL. He said it was the "main board" that was the problem. One of the things like I'm just confused by is if the main board really does need to be replaced, then how was I able to get the computer on and working those few times???
Sorrry this is so long, any help would be awesome!! I just don't have the money to buy a new computer, and I'm not sure it will be worth it for me to pay $300 to have it fixed when my computer's already pretty old and other things haven't been working for awhile (like my disc drive, camera). THANK YOU!!!

EmadJamal,
the battery won’t melt because of long connection to the AC charger, although that has the potential of reducing the battery’s life.
Do you have access to a second 60 W AC charger to test with your MacBook Pro, or access to a second 13-inch MacBook Pro against which your AC charger could be tested?

So if I want to buy an non-music app I need to buy an iTunes gift card?

I bought gift cards for myself and my family so we could download apps onto our iPads. The gift cards had the the little triangle emblem just like the App Store icon on our iPads.
But nowhere on the iPad App Store is there a method to redeem the gift cards. Phone Support just told me that I have purchased the wrong gift cards and that they are non-transferable.
So if I want to buy an iWork app, I must purchase an iTunes gift card? But I don't want to download music and I don't select the app from iTunes...I select it from the App Store
And if I buy the gift card with the App Store triangle emblem then that card is only good at the online retail store and not for apps?
It seems somewhat absurd to have 3 virtual storefronts (App, Online Retail, iTunes) that cannot take each others gift cards. Why can't Apple be as easy as Amazon? One gift card works everywhere.
Is there any way to use our gift cards to download for-pay apps? Or should I recover my money by disputing the purchase with my credit card company?

Thanks for your reply.
I took my iPad, my case #, my iPhone, and a printout of this thread to my local Apple store. What ultimately worked was to redeem the online store gift card through my iPhone Passbook and use the money to buy an iTunes gift card. Then I redeemed the iTunes gift card.
Not sure this will work with the gift cards I gave as presents and, if I lacked an iPhone (like my mother lacks) then I would have been S.O.L. Apparently the emailed online store gift cards are incompatible (no GCA code). Something for Apple to fix. Not having Passbook on iPad is another thing.
Thanks again for the help

Weird thing going on with Expose and Dock

Weird things have been going on with my Macbook Pro. It's been like this for several months and it's very annoying. What happened was that at some point during using computer, the dock and the expose will go on doing strange stuff together, for the dock, it's the magnification not working properly, when i move my mouse over any application icon, the magnification didn't come up, but if I click on it it will, however, after having clicked on the icon it will not doing the jump motion like it usually does, what it does is that it's going to stay being magnified, even if i point the mouse elsewhere. That's the dock. The problem with the expose is with the all window view, where when i turn it on everything seems to be normal, but if i move my mouse around, anywhere, each window that has been shown in the "all window" view will keep flashing until i dont move my mouse again. And that's the expose problem. Two other problems that occur along with the annoying issue mentioned earlier is that say when you click on the apple icon on the top, usually when you move down along there will be a blue stripe as a background to the words like "About this mac", "System preferences" etc, but when the problem occurs it will not do that. And if you have any window opened that has a scroll for horizontally, it'll keep forcing me to the right hand side of the bar, even if i drag it to the left it'll still go straight to the right hand side automatically. These are the problems that log-out-then-log-in won't resolve, needs to be restarted, i cannot work under this kind of situation, and it's getting really frustrating although i really like my mac still. I'm not sure when it started to do this, one time i thought maybe an application like p2p may disrupt the system so one time i only had calendar, itunes working still it happened again. I have a macbook pro A1226, has been updated to 10.5 and went through all the software update already... still... Does anyone have have the similar or maybe exact same problem as I do here? Please let me know. If you know how to fix it even better, I'd appreciate that. Thanks.

I have an iphone 4 that I recently upgraded to IOS 7, and now I cant drag music to it. It says "preparing to update" eternally. Weird thing is... I have an iphone 3s that is IOS 6, and it takes new music all day. arg.
I have tried direct connecting the iphone 4, via wifi, everything. I hate itunes with a passion, but it seems to be a necessary evil. I dont know why I would have no trouble with my iphone 3. I am using the same technique for both phones. Find the music I want in the library and drag it to the iphone. Works on IOS 6, not IOS 7.
WHat else should I try?

Hi jeffmbellucci,
If you are having issues dragging music to your iPhone 4 after a recent upgrade to iOS 7, you may want to verify that the phone is still set to "Manually manage music and videos." You may find the following article helpful:

I opened my iPhoto library today which was stored on an external hard drive and several of my videos now will not play at all. The weird thing is that each file shows a duration of 1 second and when I open them it just shows one frame. What the !&%$#@ Where did my original video files go?

Sounds like a good plan, you can never be to safe and having a second External HD is safer than one.
The only thing that I would do different, is setup the 3T as my TimeMachine Backup and then erase and move my Photos, Videos and perhaps even iTunes Media to the 1T. That way you will have room to backup both the Internal Hard Drive and the 1T External Hard Drive to the 3T using TimeMachine.
Take your time, study and use the > Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions if you get stuck or aren't sure how to make the move.

iTunes Store: Accepted forms of payment

HT1338 I try to buy songs itunes but there is a message stating that my disk is full and to empty out the trash can. But i don't know what disk it speaks of?

I try to buy songs itunes but there is a message stating that my disk is full and to empty out the trash can. But i don't know what disk it speaks of?

The "disk" is your startup volume, which is usually called "Macintosh HD" (unless you changed it). Your iTunes media files (such as song files), and basically everything else, are stored on that volume (unless you changed it).
You should create some free space as soon as possible, because the system (OS) and applications use free space to write temporary files as part of normal operations. If there is very little free space available, your system may start to bog down and feel slow because it's not running efficiently.
You can empty whatever is currently in the Trash by doing a click-hold (or right-click) on the "waste basket" icon in the Dock, and selecting Empty Trash. A good place to look for files you may no longer need is your Downloads folder. There is usually a link to your Downloads folder in the sidebar of a Finder window. (The folder itself is located in your user home folder.)
You can see how much free space you currently have by selecting Macintosh HD on your Desktop (or in the sidebar of a Finder window), and selecting Get Info from the File menu. You can also right-click on it and select Get Info from the menu that comes up (or hit Cmd-I on keyboard). The Info window shows Capacity and Available for the volume. Available is the free space. It would be best to keep Available at least 10% of Capacity; getting it to 20% or more would be better.
If you can't free up enough free space by deleting things you do not need anymore, you should get an external hard drive and save some your files there. That's actually how I run my iMac; most of my user files are stored on external USB and FireWire drives.

First time buying on itunes and i forgot the answers to my secrete questions, any help

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

My ipod does weird things

So I have a 30g video ipod that I have had for about a year now. Lately it has been doing so really weird things. It will be fully charged but run out of battery in thirty minutes or less, and it takes it anywhere from ten to fifteen seconds atleast to do anything. Play a song, pause a song, go through menus, everything. I was wondering if anyone could give me any ideas as to what is wrong or what I can do. My last resort would be sending it to apple.

Well, after getting NOWHERE with online help, I sent in my iPod for repair. After having it out of my possession for about 5 days Apple happily informed me that nothing is wrong.
Yet, SOMETHING IS WRONG!!!!!!!!!
It still doesn't "start"* my iTrip. Even though mine works fine on my wife's Nano. And even though hers doesn't work on mine. And even though it doesn't always get recognized by the computer when plugged in. And even though when it does get seen by iTunes, iTunes (about half the time) thinks it is corrupt and needs to be reformatted.
Oh, and now it doesn't charge through the iTrip port anymore.
But hey, nothing is wrong.
Anyone with anything helpful?
And before anyone suggests it again, I've restored the thing several times.
*By start I mean that the iTrip (LCD) will turn on and begin transmitting. Most of the time I have to fiddle with turning the iPod off and on and/or resetting it to get it to finally work. That process usually takes about 15 minutes or so.
