Why does the song I want to buy just say "play" instead of buy?

I want to buy a song, but iTunes just says play. WHY???

That means that the iTunes Store thinks you have already purchased the song.

  • Why does the song I imported from iTunes to edit, sound weak after burning to a CD?

    I needed to shorten a song that's on a commercially available CD because it has a rather long instrumental in it.  We're using this in my church as part of the service. 
    What I did:  I ripped the CD into iTunes, then I opened a new project in Garage Band as "Loops", drug the song into the track, chopped out the lengthy part, sent it to iTunes, made a "Play List" in iTunes and burned a CD.  The result was a recording that sounds weak and lack luster.  The original CD sounds so awesome that you just have to get out of your seat and participate (it's a Call & Response song), whereas the shorter version that I created sounds dull and the congregation is left feeling kinda' ho-hum.  :-( 
    What did I do wrong?  What should I do differently?  I don't mind doing everything all over again, I just don't want to burn through 10 CDs before discovering by trial and error.  Thanx in advanced for everybody's input...

  • Why does the Notes app want Keychain access?

    Does anyone know why Notes wants keychain access? It started when I downgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. The dialong also won't accept 'no' for an answer. If I select "Deny" it just repeats the question and the only options are to close the program or allow access. Since it doesn't allow secure notes, why does it need the keychain, and why present a dialog with no choices?

    Try going to Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access/Secure Notes and see if there is an entry there. If so, you'll need to decide if you want to keep it or not.

  • When I add a song to my iphone, why does the song JUST go to the song section and not the artist?

    It never did this before but I added a song onto my iPhone and it's been on there for awhile, but I guess recently when I plugged in my iphone to my laptop and synced, the song was removed. When I readded the song, it went to the "Songs" portion and not the Artist as well. I mean the song is on my iPhone and that's good, but it's a hassle when I want to listen to it and I have to scroll through my library just to find it. Help?

    You have to have Automatic Download enabled.
    On the iPhone go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Enable Automatic Downloads for Music, Apps, and iBooks, also you can make the choice if it should download over cellular data.
    iTunes: Edit> Prefrences > Store > Enable Automatic Downloads.
    This is Apple's article on it.

  • Why does the song i downloaded keep asking me to authorize it for my computer, and when i do it plays a differant song

    I downloaded Fast AS You from I-Tunes. When I click on it to play it a pop up box says I have to authorize the song for my computer and asks for my password. When I enter my pass word it plays 6th Avenue Heartache. Over and over, even after a reboot it does the same thing. Any ideas?
    Thanks, Don

  • Why does the song currently playing not correspond with the title

    Since the latest update of iTunes when I play a CD or import it into iTunes, the song currently playing and the title shown for that song are not correct. All the songs and titles are there but they are jumbled. Any ideas? Thanks, i need all the help i can get.

    There is dirt our moisture in the dock connector on the phone or the end of the cable. Or possibly a bad cable.
    You can clean the connector with a dry toothbrush or wooden toothpick; inspect it with a magnifying glass to make sure it is clean.

  • Why does the video I rendered as Quicktime file stop playing at one minute?

    Hey guys! I need your help big time!
    I am making a slideshow type video of pictures with titles and I am adding keyframes and using the Tweening tool between frames to add transitions to the video. I have added all the tweening slides, and when I export the video I am exporting it as a Quicktime file. When I watch the video all the transitions are good, but the entire video will not play.
    There are 9 photos in the video and when I first play the video normally the first 5 pictures and their transitions show up, and then the video "stops" because it has reached one minute ("the end"), but if you let it sit there then the other 4 pictures and their transitions still play but the video is technically stopped.
    Then when you rewind the video back to 30 or so seconds the 5th picture that it previously stopped at one minute on occurs at 30 seconds and then the other 4 play correctly with their transitions from 30 seconds to a minute.
    I am going to be making several small video files like this and then merging them together to create the full file and before I go any further in the process I need to make sure that the video file Photoshop is rendering for me is the FULL file. Please, if anyone at all knows how to help me with this, then please do!
    Thank you for your help!!

  • Why does the app store want me to give a credit card number to get a free app?

    Hello; I've never used my apple account to purchase one thing, yet while I'm signed in to the app store, and I try to down load one of the free apps, I am asked to provide a credit card number. So my question is why must I give such info.? After all, I am not making a monetary purchase. Please explain, for I am confused. If one is required regardless, well , I guess I need to close my apple account, for I disagree with the practice.

    I suppose you could think of it as establishing a formal account for general and future use.   What usually happens is that your card is tested by charging a nominal amount to it (which is refunded within a day or two).   Once that is established you will find a  'None'  option will appear when you want to download a free app which indicates no payment.
    All purchases made will be recorded on your purchase list whether paid for or not.
    There is also a system to purchase without a credit card.   See ...

  • Why does the App Store want to me download Mavericks again?

    I have a MacBook Pro that I updated to OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 about a week ago. I was perusing the App Store today and it wants me to "Update" Mavericks, which entails me downloading 5 GB. I think it's confused is basically asking me to re-download the entire Mavericks. Why is it asking me to do that?
    Thanks for any answers. PS, the App Store is kind of the bane of my existence.

    Yeah, it's asking me to download the installer again. It wants me to "install" Mavericks (even though I already have it!). I decided to go ahead download it, but now I'm wondering if I need to re-install Mavericks for it to stop telling me to install it. It's just kind of concerning that it thinks I still need to install Mavericks. Thanks for your help.

  • HT4623 Why does the App Store want my Credit Card details to download a Free App?

    In recent months the App Store requests my Credit Card details before it will let me download a Free App. Why is this and am I going to get charged for Free Apps, a few weeks ago my Credit Card was charged $1 for down loading a Free App. Why is this happening? Jeanette143

    If you update your billing information, the iTunes Store will place an authorization hold on your payment card account, usually in the amount of 1 USD, to verify your account information. It will be credited back to your account later.

  • Why does the song i paid 4 can't get downloaded??

    hello,
    I just bought a song in iTunes, & 4 some reason, a window just pops-up and says, "THERE WAS AN ERROR DOWNLOADING YOUR PURCHASED MUSIC. AN ERROR OCCURED(-50). USE THE CHECK MUSIC PURCHASES IN ADVANCE TO TRY AGAIN LATER". I did exactly what it says but it never worked. I thought it was just for that 1 song I puchased but it wasn't because I downloaded another, and it still didn't work. I think maybe because for the first song I purchased, it said, "EXPLICT", in red. I'm not sure what it means but all I know is I REALLY need help. Any suggestions?

    ***** FYI: I found a fix for this mess. If you are getting this error, change the location of the itunes download folder to c:\itunes or something else that is "NOT a unc path "\\server1\users]%username%\mydocuments\itunes"
    Try mapping it to a drive letter for it to get where it needs to be. The My Documents folder may be a UNC path if group policy has redirected the folder or if it was manually moved to a network share.
    I figured all this out by running an Etherial packet scan on the computer that Itunes was installed on to see what kind of error was being thrown out by TCPIP on the network. I googled that error and it was hinting that the problem existed in the way applications use UNC paths instead of a local path or drive mapping to unc. Thus I changed the path in ITunes and the video downloaded without incident.
    Good Luck, hope this helps.

  • Why does the music i want to add end up i "not added folder"

    Can anyone help me ? i've been trying to add some music files to my iPod 32gb 3rd Gen running i05 I'm on my home PC running windows xp home all up to date
    ive converted the files to AAC when I try to send them to iPod i put the music in "auto add to I tunes" folder it fails to send and ends up "not added folder"
    i must have tried this a dozen times ive also tried restarting iTunes.
    any help would be great
    thanks for in advance
    Neil

    Perhaps the program that you've used to convert to AAC hasn't done a very good job. The "Not Added" folder is where iTunes moves things that it cannot recognise as being valid files of the types that it can manage.

  • HT5295 Why does the app stop updating if you have not played 5 episodes? Is there a way to turn this off?

    Can I keep it from not updating after 5 unplayed episodes?

    I would also like a way to turn off this "feature." Currently, if I miss 5 episodes of a podcast, the Podcasts app stops auto-downloading new episodes of that podcast. I, however, would prefer that my Podcasts app simply keep the most recent 3 episodes of the podcasts I subscribe to, whether I've listened to other recent episodes, or not. And "most recent 3" is just my preference. I'm sure there are people out there who want to keep every episode, listened or not, recent or not. There shouldn't be limitations on how we decide to use our memory or bandwidth.

  • Why does the usb cord my ipod came with say not supported with this accesorie

    i plugged my ipod into my computer and a yellow triangle popped up with a exclaimation mark in it and said below it charging is not supported with this accesorie.

    Jamie,
    Could be that your USB cable is damaged somehow.  Try using a different cable if at all possible.
    Otherwise, check your iPod's connector port on the bottom and make sure it is clear of debris such as lent, etc.  Use a can of compressed air to help blow it out.  Also, look for any broken or bent pints that could cause this error message to appear.
