Why isn't the song i downloaded not on my Ipod?

why isn't the song i downloaded not on my Ipod?

Does any media sync to the iPod?
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?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod       
Try syncing using the manual method                
Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs? (iTunes purchases only)

    Try:                           
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why isn't the first generation iPad not supported by iOS 6?

    I am totally confused. Why isn't the first iPad supported in iOS 6?
    iPad 1: Apple A4 1GHz processor and 256 mb RAM
    iPod Touch 3G: 800 MHz processor (same as iPhone 3GS) and 256 mb RAM
    iPhone 3GS: 800 MHz processor (underclocked to 600 i believe)

    3GS is still sold officially and new. iPad first generation isn't. Android is even worse about things like this.
    PLEASE don't branch this into twenty different threads, and keep it in the two that already exist.

  • HT1491 why is the songs i downloaded not on my i pod

    why is the songs i have paid for and downloaded on my laptop not on my i pod??

    It should be in the Videos app (the iTunes app on the iPad is just the iTunes store and the Downloads tab in it shows downloads that are happening/queued, once they've finished downloading they disappear from the tab) :

  • Why isn't the song Pavlove by Fall Out Boy on iTunes?

    I checked everywhere and I cant find it.

    Hi, frybo.
    Go to the iTunes Edit menu > Preferences > Advanced tab > General sub-tab and make sure that Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library is checked.
    Assuming that it is, iTunes should be putting a copy of any songs you add to your Library in the iTunes Music folder - which is itself in the iTunes folder.
    Can you check there and let us know if you are able to find the files.

  • Is sound check still in effect if songs are downloaded to a non-ipod device?

    If Sound Check and/or Volume Adjusment (under "Get Info) are engaged in the itunes library, and then the songs are downloaded to a non-ipod device (flash drive) are those adjustments still in effect?  Same question if songs are downloaded to an ipod.

    Hmmm...
    OK - a better question for me is how does Sound Check work?
    Lets say I have only 2 songs in my entire iPod music library. One song has maximum volume @ 0dB and the other song only hits -6dB. When Sound Check is enabled, does the loud song get pulled down to -6dB or the -6dB up to 0dB or some average?
    Because when it is selected on my iPod - the volume goes down at least 3dB. Now do I have to somehow find those guilty songs that are pulling all the other tunes down with it?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    this usually happens when a user moves or deletes files in the finder - a sure way to upset iTunes.
    did you move or delete files in the finder ?
    I cannot locate the song.
    if you let iTunes manage your library, all your content will be in <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music/iTunes/iTunes music (or media)/music. did you look there ? tried a spotlight search ?
    if the files are really gone, and have been purchased from the iTunes store, see Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.

  • Why do the songs I download get cut off

    why do the songs I download get cut off

    Does the track play correctly in Quicktime Player?  If it does then it is an iTunes issue.  If it doesn't then it is possible the file was not completely downloaded, or is corrupt.

    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17661693 - issue resolved by re-downloading files or rebuilding library file [note, although the poster says this restored all, my understanding is the .xml file does not retain all the details of the original library file].
    What happens if you restart iTunes?
    Look in the Recently Added playlist.  What happens if in the Get Info window you add the lettter (any letter actually) "X" to the end of the artist name, then remove it?
    Right click on a problem file in the Recently Added playlist and then Show In Playlist > Music  Do you see it?
    Delete the files from iTunes but do not let iTunes move them to the trash.  Now go to where they are located in Finder and add them again.  Does that work?
    If you don't see it in Recently Added, make a new playlist window and drag the files from where iTunes put them to an empty playlist.  Do they show?
    Please post a response.  I make various suggstions here at least once a day in response to this issue and I have no idea if they work for people.

  • HT1725 I downloaded an album from itunes and only half of the songs have downloaded. The rest of the songs keep trying to download and then come up with an error saying they cannot download at this time. I'm not sure what the issue is.

    I downloaded an album from itunes and only half of the songs have downloaded. The rest keep trying to download, but I keep getting a message that says, "Song cannot be downloaded at this time. Do you want to retry or be done." Each time I retry, the same thing happens. They will not download. I have restarted my phone and the same problem remains.

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs over a number of days.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting it from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

  • How to download the same song(track) with different keys? iTunes seems to think I have already downloaded the song and will not download the song in a different key of the Demo Track

    How to download the same song(track) with different keys? iTunes seems to think I have already dowloaded the song and will not let me download the song in a different key or the Demo.

    Hello Jigz19,
    It sounds like you are unable to play a couple of songs from your library becuase you get a message that the computer is unauthorized to play, but other content purchased that same day works without issue. I would verify that the affected songs were purchased with the same Apple ID first:
    Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1920
    Open iTunes
    Highlight one of the items you have purchased (You can find your purchases in your Purchases playlist).
    Choose File > Get Info.
    Click the Summary tab.
    The Account Name area will list the account used to purchase the item. Unless you have changed accounts, this is your iTunes Store account name.
    If so, then delete the songs:

  • Why isn't the edit button not showing in my ESX24 sampler?

    why isn't the edit button not showing in my ESX24 sampler?

    Is that during installation when you see the two icons.. the one on the left looking like a Garageband guitar icon, the one on the right like the Logic Pro platimum record icon?
    Yes.. that one.. with the choice to click on which option you want/are coming from...
    p.s. I'll probably aquire a Mac Mini this fall then upgrade.... I mean repurchase!
    I think I managed to grab one of the last of the 2011 refurb'ed MMS's.... at that super low price Apple were selling them for... before they bumped it up and now, they seem to have none left at all at any price
    However, just in case, I have found this site really useful at keeping track of Apple's refurb stock... and pricing

  • 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.

  • I just downloaded an album from a gift card, and not all the songs were downloaded..how do i finish downloading the album without purchasing it again?

    I just downloaded the T-Pain rEVOLVEr Album from a gift card, but not all the songs were downloaded to my library. Is there a way to finish downloading the remaining songs without purchasing the entire album?

    Hey Astrozilla,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    I understand you are having issues with a couple of songs you recently purchased. It may be that these songs did not download fully, or correctly. The best troubleshooting step may be to delete the songs from your library, and re-download using iTunes in the Cloud (if available in your country).
    For more information, see the following:
    Songs in iTunes may not play back completely
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4357
    Symptoms
    Occasionally, if a song purchased from the iTunes Store on a Mac or PC was not downloaded completely, the song may not play back fully. The song may abruptly stop during playback, and iTunes may start playing the next song in your library or playlist.
    Resolution
    If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, try the following steps to resolve the issue:
    1. Delete the purchased song that is exhibiting the problem from your iTunes library.
    2. Click on the Purchased link in the iTunes Store to view your previously purchased music.
    3. Download your previously purchased song from this list.
    Note: iTunes in the Cloud, which allows you to download previously purchased songs from the iTunes Store, is not available in every country. Learn if iTunes in the Cloud is offered in your country.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • I cannot play a song I purchased. The message says the computer is not authorized. I deauthorized and reauthorized it and it still will not work. Should i delete the song and download it again?

    Yes ... if just one song on an album is doing that, it usually means you've got a damaged file on your hands.

  • Why won't some of my songs, that used to sync, sync to my iPhone 5 now? There is an empty circle appearing to the left of the check marks for each of the songs that were not successfully synced.

    Why won't some of my songs, that used to sync, sync to my iPhone5 now? There is an empty circle appearing to the left of the check mark in iTunes for the songs that are not properly syncing.

    I've continued tests on different films, and tried my entire collection. I've found about two dozen that will play fine on the PC, but will not cooperate when streamed to either Apple TV or my iPad. I tried several more tests with the audio, and that turned out not to be a factor -- I could not replicate that on another test.
    I wonder if something in the header of these files is corrupted or a flag is set incorrectly or something along those lines, as the data appears to be fine -- it's just not "handshaking" with my streaming hardware and/or the Apple Home Sharing code that powers it.
    Is there any way for me to "scrub" these files and amend their headers, or get into the file and tinker with that info by hand?
