  • Why will itunes not allow me to download new software onto new laptop

    hi
    wjy will itunes not allow me to download the new software to my new laptop, ive put my desrired email address in but it wont download

    Greetings BevAnneS,
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like it does not recognize that iTunes is installed. It looks like you have already done some troubleshooting. I would recommend that you read this article, Don't uninstall these components in a different order, or only uninstall some of them.
    Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • Itunes update always fails during download - it gets to the last 3 mb or so and hangs until I cancel it.  Any idea how to fix?

    iTunes fails to update.  During download, it gets to last (presunambly) package and hangs at last 3 Mb.  I have left it for days, it won't complete. Any idea how to fix?

    This is a common issue.  Temporarily disable the Anti-Virus and Firewall software on the computer.

  • Why is itunes taking so long to download

    when i try to download itunes its taking very VERY long. it will start downloading at like 70kb/s and then very quickly go down to about 3 or 5 kb/s what could be wrong?

    I am experiencing the same thing. All downloads from appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net are very slow. This includes iTunesSetup and Quicktime. I have been trying to download the new version of iTunes for a few days, but I get too impatient. 90 minutes for 57 meg isn't cool. I have no other issues with the internet only this site. FWIW my ISP is Verizon DSL in Southern California.

  • Serrurier Antibes : why is itunes match stopping me from downloading paid content ?

    So I have been using my apple ID on my Mac since I bought it. I don't know what itunes match is, but it is stopping me from downloading shows I have purchased via my apple TV onto my Mac and my iPad. it says my Mac is already associated with another ID but it isn't! http://serruriersantibes.fr/

    Thinking about this further, I realized that iTunes is preventing one from having ANY playlists which depend on others, and that's a really tragic thing.  What sold me 100% on Apple was being able to set up Smart Playlists which are mixes of Podcasts (unplayed),  5Star songs (least recently played), and 1-4 Star Songs (Least Recently Played).   That the software allowed one to do this showed that APple had some people who REALLY love music, that they cared about when and how the music was played.  
    But I'm wondering if the people in charge of the new iTunes update don't play around with Smart Playlists to this degree.

  • Why is itunes taking so long to download on my computer?

    I wanted to upate my itunes and it was taking forever and making my computer slow.

    Could be something with your internet connection.  Other than that, with everyone trying to download ios7 at the same time can cause delays.

  • Why do my movie purchases fail to download?

    I don't have any virus protection, ad filter, web accelerators, or firewalls installed on my Mac.  I have tried deleting the files and re- downloading, hitting download repeatedly, resetting my wireless network, restarting my computer, and trying to download from a new account on my Mac.  So far nothing works. Does anyone have any suggestions?

  • Why is itunes taking so long to download movies

    My internet connection appears to be working great, but the movies are taking far too long....7 hrs for a 1.1GB movie

    I have noticed this on some TV episodes. Takes for ages and then suddenly speeds up. I think it must be at the Apple end because like you I have a fast internet connection. Guess we will just have to wait for Apple to fixit
    Use feedback to report it to apple as apple do not read these pages.

  • Song purchased on iTunes continuously fails to download

    I bought a song about two weeks ago from iTunes and it failed to download and everytime I try to "retry" it says failed again

    What happens when you try to sync?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?           
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • TS1363 why does Itunes shut down when I purchase songs.also when trying to download updates it fails to update.I am using windows 8

    when I purchase songs Itunes shuts down.also when I try to update I tunes I keep getting an error message that says failed to download

    I appreciate your response but not sure now if it could have been anything in that answer because.......
    This problem appears to have gone away, not sure why but I have a possible theory. This is only a theory on my part as I'm not knowledgeable on the inner workings of Firefox. When I installed Firefox 18 it had all the automatic updating options turned on by default. By the time I turned them all off, I'm assuming it had started to download updates for all the plugins and addons, like java, quicktime etc. etc. etc. even though I hadn't personally initiated those downloads and updates. My theory is that once those downloads had started, even though I had turned off the automatic updating, it was going to continue downloading the updates that had started and was not going to stop until it had done so.
    I do not disable the anti-phishing and evil website detection stuff but I seriously doubt the updating for those items would have consisted of 89 megabytes of data but I could be wrong.
    So for now, I'll close this out and mark it solved and continue to monitor to see if I have any more "weirdness" go on.

  • Why does iTunes Match download songs that I skip?

    I haven't seen this question posted yet, but feel free to direct me to any pertinent posts.
    I've been using iTunes Match for the last couple days, and all in all I really enjoy the service. There is one issue that I've yet to see addressed on these boards yet though; why is iTunes Match downloading songs that I skip? I listen to all my music in random, so occasionally there will be a song I just don't want to hear at the moment. I assumed that if I don't listen to a song completely that it would not be downloaded to my device. Not true apparently. I was able to use about half a gig of data in a few hours just by skipping songs. Every song that was skipped, even if I didn't hear a single second of it, was downloaded (at an average size of 5-8 MB). I sincerely hope this is just a bug and not a 'feature'.
    Any insight on this would be appreciated.

    I have noticed this too. I filled up my phone VERY fast yesterday.
    and deleting is not easy, lots of left swipe DELETE action, took a while.
