Why can't I open a book I purchased on iTunes?

I purchased a book on iTunes. I can see 5 meg is there but I can't open it.
I bought it using my girlfriends account and think that may be causing me problems, but
we have never had any problems purchasing music this way in the past.
Thanx for any help!

Ibooks are for ipad/ipod/iphone. Which device are you trying to read it on?

Why can I not add the audiobooks I purchased from itunes to my ipod

Why can I not add the audiobooks I purchased from itunes to my ipod. My ipod is 60 gb version 1.3. I think a 5th generation

Kristy,
Is your iPod configured to sync audiobooks? To check, plug your iPod in and when it appears in iTunes locate it's audibooks tab and make sure it is set to them.

HT204081 why can i not read the books i bought on itunes on my itunes/computer?

i was just wondering why can i not read my books on my computer that i just bought online on the itunes store. do i have to download anything speffic?

ibooks bought from Apple can currently only be read in the iBooks app on an iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch - so far Apple haven't made a Mac or PC reader for them, so you won't be able to read them on your Mac.

Up until a few days ago I could open emails by double clicking on it. Now I have to use control/O instead. I have not changed any settings that I am aware of. What happened and how can I change it back?

Try a different mouse. There is no setting in Thunderbird.

I am using a laptop, which didn't have a mouse, just a mouse pad, so I added a corded mouse via a USB port, and it does the same thing.

Why can't I play an old movie purchased from iTunes and later uploaded to iTunes from an external hard drive on my Apple TV?

I bought Ratatouille some years ago from iTunes downloaded onto a 1st gen Apple TV, and subsequently to an old MacBook. I had backed that MacBook up to an external HD. A couple computers from that time and now I have a new gen ATV. I noticed that all my old movies showed up to stream on the new ATV's system except Ratatouille. So today I decided to upload the movie onto my new MBP's iTunes. But the movie won't show up on ATV. Again, this is an iTunes-purchased movie so it has nothing to do with format. I can play the movie through "home sharing" but I shouldn't have to leave my MBP open to play the movie - it should be available on my "purchased" selection that can be played at any time. Any suggestions how to resolve this issue? Thanks in advance for your help.

Ok, best to contact itunes then so they can look into it

Apple tv is the worst product ever, why can't I play movies I have purchased through iTunes?? It's terrible

Apple TV is NOT ready for use...I have movies and TV shows I have purchased that won't play on Apple TV, what good is it? I have authorized, deauthorized, logged in, logged out reauthorized until I am blue in the face and is still won't work. What is APPLE trying to do with this product???
The concept is great if Apple could get it to work.

Unbelievable. I just played the movies on every laptop around our house but Apple TV won't. How can they even put their name behind a product like this?
BTW our house has 2 iPads, an iMac, MacBook Air, a MacBook Pro, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, 3 iTouches, 3 Nanos and an orginal iPod so we are not novices to Apple.
Unfortunate.

Can't burn CD of book not purchased with Itunes

I'm trying to help a friend who purchased an audiobook (from Amazon) burn it to CDs. The program Amazon uses to download to the computer references using ITunes to burn it to CDs but I am getting stopped cold by ITunes asking for an Audio ID. I've signed my friend up with an Apple account, but it will not accept that user ID and password for this purpose. I do not know what else to do. Any help would be appreciated.
I imported the book into ITunes and created a playlist for it, but when I click on burn to CD I get stopped by this Audio ID business. HELP!

Thanks Barbra...once again you helped me to recognize the obvious... It worked great... I'm glad you are out there... Best regards ... Clint...

Why can't I open and retrieve my files from iPhoto and my address book after importing the files from my Power mac G5 to my new Mac Pro? I get a warning that says the new OS on my Pro doesn't open files from a Power Mac. Any idea how I can fix this?

Why can't I open and retrieve my files from iPhoto and my Address Book after importing the files from my Power Mac G5 to my new Mac Pro? I get a warning that says the new OS on my Pro doesn't open files from a Power Mac. Any idea how I can fix this?

For your addressbook, export the files to vCard on the PowerMac, then bring them over to your Mac Pro. For your iPhoto, copy the Users -> yourname -> Pictures folder to your Desktop on the Mac Pro, and open iPhoto on the Mac Pro holding the command and option keys. Select the library file from that Pictures folder and open it. It should import all the pictures into iPhoto as part of the rebuild process.

Why Can't I open spreadsheet on my Mac Book?

Why Can't I open spreadsheet on my Mac Book Pro? I have gone to the App store to download the most current version of Numbers, but am told it is already installed. The version of Numbers on my computer says it is 2.3 (554). ( in "about Numbers"). If it is already installed why can't I open a spreadsheet created long ago, but used recently without any problems until today. Very Frustrated. I have Maverick on my 2012

Your Mac is too old. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842 .
Also, a Mac with 2 GB of memory does not run well on Mavericks.

Why can't I open I Photo??

Why can't I open I Photo??

Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Why can't I open a FCE project file that I have saved? (It now says ZERO kb

Hello...
I have just started working on a project in Final Cut Express - I render, save, and close out of FCE - but, when I go back to FCE, the project I was working on does not open.
Why can't I open a project file that I have saved?
Here was my process in a nutshell:
~ When I opened FCE, I went the System Preferences and set the Scratch Disks to a folder on my external hard drive.
~Then, I went to File - New Project - worked on the project for a while (including creating bins, importing images and video, and creating a sequence.
~I saved the project file to the same folder that I set my Scratch Disks to.
as often throughout this process.)
~When I was done, I saved again andd closed FCE.
~Then, soon after, I opened FCE again and my project did not open automatically.
~So, I clicked File - Open Recent - browsed to and chose the project file name and FCE gave me a "Unable to open file" message.
~When I check to see if the project file actually saved to my external hard drive, the name appears, but it says the file size is ZERO kb.
I have done this twice with the same unfortunate result. What am I doing wrong? I have worked on FCE on this same computer before, setting the Scratch Disks the same way, and I did not have this problem.
Please help. Thank you so much for your feedback.
...Rae

Are you sure you are trying to open the project file you actually saved ?
Try using Spotlight to search for your project file name. I might be wrong, but I guess you try to open an empty copy while your real project file (what you saved) is somewhere else in either your startup disk (Documents folder ?) or the external drive. If so do not use Open Recent in FCE but simply double click the "real" project file.

Why can't I open a lot of documents since yosemite. They are in grey

Since I installed the last version of OS X on my Ipad, I could not open a lot of documents on my Mac. I thought this problem would be solved when I would install Yosemite on my mac but this is not the case.
Why are so many documents in grey and why can't I open these documents on my mac with yosemite ?

Tell your friend to go to bit.ly to create a 'short URL' for that address.
They can send you that & you shouldn't have to worry about the SMS or any other messaging size limitations.
NOTE: there are many other URL shortener services…

Why can't TextEdit open more than 5 links at a time in Yosemite?

Why can't TextEdit open more than 5 links at a time in Yosemite? In the previous OS, I could highlight many links at a time, right click and then select "Open URL" to open the links in Safari. Now, if I select more than five links at a time (and sometimes with five links) it will only open the first five and TextEdit pops up with the alert, "The 'Open URL' service could not be used."
I'm running 10.10.1 on a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2009), 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, 500 GB HD.
TextEdit is Version 1.10 (319).

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.
