Why don't songs that I have purchased show under the "Purchased" section in the I-tunes Store? I have purchased a large quantity & it only shows 2.

1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

  • HT1386 how can i get all my songs that are on my ipod onto my iTunes without losing the ones that weren't purchased on iTunes?

    I got a new laptop and I wanted to put my songs that are on my ipod onto my iTunes without losing the songs that weren't purchased. I have no way of getting onto my old laptop to get the songs if I lose them so I was wondering if there was any other way.

    What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue?  Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
    What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?

    Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?
    Have you carefully worked through each and every single suggestion in this Apple support document?

  • HT1918 My husband's iPhone4 uses one apple id for purchases and updates, but another is listed in the App Store. How do I reconfigure his phone to only use the apple I'd and password that is used in the the "featured" section of the App Store?

    My husband's iphone4 seems to have 2 apple ids. The one listed in the featured section of the App Store is the correct one. The one that asks to be signed into for purchase and updates is also mine, and the incorrect one. Hence, our devices are linked. How can I remove my apple Id from his phone so that there is no connection between the two?

    I think it may be because he got his phone first and not seeing a future issue, I set his phone up to my already existing apple Id used for my iPod. If I connect his iPhone to our pc, can I create his own apple id account?

  • How can I have a Pages document that is shared with me under my Pages section and not open it with the link?

    How can I have a Pages document that is shared with me under my Pages section and not open it with the link?

    Try this.
    Open the document and select and copy a few pages, say ten pages.
    Open a new blank document and paste the pages you copied into that.
    Save it with a new name.
    Work on those new pages to see if the problem has disappeared.
    If this helps, continue breaking up the large file in to smaller chunks and working on them
    You can of course later reverse the process and merge the files into one new one.
    This suggestion is based on my experiences with large Word files. Breaking it up in to smaller chunks does two things. First, if there is any corruption in the old file, the new copies might escape that. Second, the Mac is faster handling the smaller chunks.

  • I have a "hacker" PC showing up under the "Shared" section of the Finder

    Today I noticed a PC computer icon showing up under the "Shared" section of the finder. The computer name was brn_921bc1. I immediately went into System Preferences and turned off file sharing. Is it really that easy for a PC hacker to come into my computer? Please help, as this seems to be a huge security threat.
    Thanks!!

    I doubt this is a hacker but you do seem to have an insecure setup. If you have your computer connected directly to a cable modem then you are essentially on a shared subnet with lots of other people Most of them aren't hackers -- probably none of them are. But this situation does leave you vulnerable which is why many people prefer to place a router in between their cable modem and their computer even if they are only connecting a single mac or pc to the internet.
    My first suggestion is that you turn on your Mac's firewall immediately. Open your System Preferences and type "firewall" in the search box. Hit return. When the firewall screen opens select "Allow only essential services". You should do this before you finish reading this thread.
    My next suggestion is to buy what's called a NAT router and stick it in between your cable modem and your mac as soon as practical. This will give you a far more secure setup than you can get with a software firewall alone. If you need help setting it up, come back here and I'm sure you can find the advice you need.

  • How do I include an entire hour-long performance on a DVD and also have menu buttons for playing isolated sections of the performance?

    How do I include an entire hour-long performance on a DVD and also have menu buttons for playing isolated sections of the performance?
    So far, I've already done the individual menu buttons for sections of the performance. How do I set up some kind of "play" button that will play the video of the entire performance straight through? Will this be too much material for the DVD to hold? Does the program recognize and not replicate material to save space? If so, will it interfere with that if  I add edits to individual sections that will not be in the video of the entire performance?   

    Hi
    If You only need
    • Play movie in full
    • Start into the movie at specific places e.g. Chapters - then play to movie ends
    Then this is fairly simple - Just add Chapters in Your Video-editor (iMovie or FinalCut)
    (some quirks to keep in mind - No Chapter mark in any transition or within 2 sec from it - AND - only Lettera A to Z and 0 to 9 - no other letters/symbols at all)
    BUT
    If You want to
    • Play full movie (with or without Chapters)
    • Play an individual Chapter then return to Menu
    This function is not standard in iDVD - but has to be faked one way or another.
    Please read my notes on this and be aware of the 60 minutes / 12 minutes limit in iDVD (THIS is including the Menu and it can take 15 minutes or more from the movie time)
    Play all resp one chapter at a time
    Play All Button
    1. There are NO - Play All - button in any version of iDVD
    2. It can be faked in several ways
    • Easiest and most fault proof way is to make a doublet movie containing All and with
    Chapters set to match. It will take up x2 space but is easy to understand and produce.
    Cons: Tried this in iMovie’11 by Exporting out each part as a full Quality QT.mov then Importing back into new events and putting these into a new project (Play All project). Resulting DVD had Audio that was OK (as parts) - BUT the picture was very bad and standing photo were cut of in hight. So the Play All movie has to be created from same material and exactly in the same way as the individual parts + then Chapters has to be set to match.
    • It's said that one can put all movies into a Photo/SlideShow and this will also
    give the function of a Play All button - Tested - and ONE HAS TO un-cheque - Scale pictures to TV-Safe area else it will be a black frame all around and a small picture !
    Cons: BUT - When tested with music videos - the same video on main Menu played nicely with OK Audio. The Play All version in SlideShow had a signifcant Distortion - as on telephone or worse.

    You might be able to get close to what you want by using a slideshow in iDVD. (It's not widely known, but you can put videos in a slideshow.) If you set the slide duration to manual, playback will pause after each movie/slide, and you can continue with the 'next' button.
    3. Using another program to do this e.g.. Roxio Toast™ where there is a Play All button option.
    Summary
    a. Making a Play All movie with same care as the individual Part movies - gives a very Good Result
    b. Using Roxio Toast™ - also an usable way to go

  • I want to create an external video widget with iAd. I followed the steps and copied the Url and paste it in the Video pop-up menu in the Properties section of the inspector. When i select 'preview' the video doesn't play and the Url that i pasted is gone.

    i want to create an external video widget with iAd to use in an iBook. I followed the steps and copied the Url and paste it in the Video pop-up menu in the Properties section of the inspector. When i select 'preview' the video doesn't play and the Url that i pasted is gone.
    hope someone can help!

    May have something to do with whether or not the URL can be reached while building your widget.  I've got a video on the web. When I enter the URL into the field for the video object and click to another field,  the URL is replaced with some text indicating that it is accessing the video then updates itself to displaying just the name of the video file.
    It shows just fine in preview and I can see the full path to the video when I export the widget so it should work for you. 
    Is the video accessible from your Mac while you're laying out your widget?

  • The Local section of the Yahoo front page is stuck on New York, and I'm unable to change it to my city. IE does not have this problem.

    The Local section of the Yahoo front page is stuck on New York as the default, and I'm unable to change it to my city using the normal procedure. IE does not have this problem. This is a new problem that has occurred with the latest version of Firefox. Since the same problem doesn't occur with IE, I've concluded that this is a Firefox issue and not a Yahoo issue.

  • I rented a movie in iTunes and connected my iPad to transfer the movie to the iPad.  The rental section will not pop-up and I have confirmed the movie is not an HD movie.  Any suggestions on what to do next?

    I rented a movie in iTunes and connected my iPad to transfer the movie to the iPad.  The rental section will not pop-up and I have confirmed the movie is not an HD movie.  Any suggestions on what to do next?

    I would ask iTunes Store support for help with this. You may never be able to get the movie to download on your own now.
    Go here and then tap on Connecting and downloading, then tap on Movie Rentals. You can have someone contact you, you can chat online or you can get email support. I would opt for the phone call or online chat.

  • Why don't songs appear on iPod?

    I click and drag songs from itunes window into iPod window on my Mac. Then when I'm done and disconnect, they do NOT appear on the iPod, it's blank. Any ideas? I am running iTunes 7, Mac 10.3.9, with a brand new iPod, purchased Oct 11, 2006.
    Heeeeeeeelp! LOL

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Dragging songs only works if you have selected to manually manage songs and videos? Have you?
    Connect the iPod to the computer. When the iPod appears in iTunes, select it under Source (on the left) and click the summary tab. Make sure manually manage songs and videos is checked. Click Apply. Do not go and change any settings in the other tabs (for what is synced to the iPod), because doing so will enable automatic updating again.
    When you drag the songs to the iPod, is iTunes showing that it is adding them (not just Updating iPod, but does it actually show the song names or 1 out of 10, for example)?
    Are you adding all types of songs (from CDs), videos, purchased content, or what?
