Why itunes leaves some songs in download directory?

I have a problem when downloading records from itunes store.  Some songs remains in downloads directory and files are named as download.m4a. Most songs are copied in right directory (named .../artist/record/) and files are named as name of song.  This has happened with 13 songs and it is happened randomly.

Have you ever rescued your media from an iPod. The number of F## folders is probably related to the size of the device. My 160Gb iPod ran from F00-F49 but I think my wife's nano might have F00-F13. Is the option under Edit > Preferences > Advanced to Keep iTunes Media folder organized enabled? Turning this option off, and then back on again should force iTunes to reorganize any files that in the wrong place.
Unknown Album and Unknown Artist are used when the corresponding fields are blank.

  • Why do some songs re-download from iCloud in 256 Variable?

    Some songs will download from iCloud in 256-bit, others in 256 Variable. Why that? All were uploaded/matched from Apple Lossless (ALAC).

    I don't know this for sure, since I have not seen this behavior, but this is my speculation.
    Songs that are matched will download from the iTunes Store in straight 256 Kbps, since that is how they are encoded. The VBR downloads are probably coming from tracks that are uploaded, and this is how you've got your import settings set up. Any ALAC files that are not matched will have a copy made of them and that will be uploaded so I'm guessing that whatever your import settings are is how the files will be encoded.

    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?

    Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs? (iTunes purchases only)

    What actions, if any, did you take to transfer your iTunes Library from your old computer to your new one?  Unless you do so, the only songs that will automatically be available to you are your previous iTunes Store purchases - and even then this is dependent on both where you are (not all regional versions of the Store provide this facility) and whether the songs you've purchased are still available from the Store.
    As leofanti points out, iTunes Match is not a backup service for your library.

    If it did, we would all still be on iTunes 1.0.

  • Why won't some songs in the iTunes store play a preview?

    Some songs or albums will not allow one to hover over the track number to get the play icon. The new Dave Mathews Band album, and the new The xx album won't show the preview play button, for example. What gives?

    Hello dazw724,
    Thank you for providing the details of when iTunes becomes unresponsive.  I found an article with steps you can take to isolate and troubleshoot an issue like this:

  • Why aren't some songs I've purchased through i-tunes not playing to their entirety and just skipping to the next song in my library?

    Hey guys. I'm hoping someone can please help me with this issue as I am becoming increasingly frustrated with my situation. I just recently purchased an i-Phone 4S and have been solely purchasing songs for it through the i-tunes store. For some reason though, I've been noticing that for multiple songs (this is currently still happening with random songs that I download from the store) that it will not allow me to play the entire song. One song that I download "Let me love you" by Ne-Yo will only play until right around the two-minute mark before it completly cuts off and continues to the next song. I've tried deleting the songs that this occurs with and re-downloading them, but this fails to work. I simply want to be able to listen to my songs in their entirety or there is no point in purchasing the songs through the store. Someone please help me? It would be greatly appreciated. I'm running Windows Vista on my Toshiba Satellite M305D-S4840 and have i-tunes 5.1.1 if that helps.

    I am having a similar problem, only all my old songs that I have purchased and some songs from cd's are playing about 2/3 of the way then skipping to next song. I just transferred all of my music back to my computer. The last songs I purchased are playing just fine. This song skipping carries over to my iPod that I restored last night as well. I am glad (but not glad) to know others are having similar issues.
    I hope this can be resolved.
    Updating to iTunes 10.7.0.21 does not fix this problem by the way...tried this earlier.

  • No artwork on iPhone when using iTunes match, some songs gone missing

    Just started using iTunes Match, almost all of my artwork is missing, and randomly at that, it worked beore I started using iTunes Match, it also doesn't download when I play the songs. Some songs went missing "in the cloud" and are unable todownload although I can see them on my iPhone 4s and were uploaded from my PC without any errors. iTunes Match a waste of money? I paid for this because I thought all the artwork and songs were suppose to get uploaded to cloud then downloaded to selected devices :/

    On the iPhone go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores and make sure "use cellular data" is set to ON.

  • Just got iphone 5-only syncs a few songs from itunes library. some songs on ipad. would like them all on new iphone

    Please help!  I have a new iPhone. Have some songs from iTunes library on iPad and only a few transferred to new phone when synced. Tried deleting songs from iPad and they went to iCloud.  So now I have songs in iCloud on iPad and some songs on iPhone. Help! I want ALL iTunes library on new phone.

    I hope I'm not too confusing--to clarify: I have iTunes library on the computer. When I got the iPad, most of them transferred to that. I read somewhere on here how to delete those songs and they are now 500+ songs in iCloud...I think. Tried putting the iTunes library onto new iPhone 5s a few days ago and only 149 out of 1100 songs transferred. HOw can I get my whole library from the computer to my new phone?  I don't need them on my iPad.

  • Some songs not downloading to my new iPhone 4 S

    After I sync I'm getting a message - 20 songs not download to your iPhone.  See iTunes for more information. 
    There is no information in iTunes.  During a sync, I've also seen a message saying you must accept a new store terms of service.  However, when I go to the phoen on my mobile or computer, I'm not prompted to do this.  In fact, I can even find a place to voluntarily accept new T&Cs.  Thoughts?
    This is happening on a new iphone 4s.  All of these songs synced fine with my Iphoen 4. 
    BTW, several of these songs are recent purchases
    - no DRM protection
    - purchased with the account that I'm syncing under
    Thanks, Michael.

    Hello Vmelo
    Note: To purchase songs from the Wi-Fi Music Store, you must also have been signed in to that account in iTunes the last time synced iPod touch or iPhone.
    More info at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1491?viewlocale=en_US
    You may need to re-sync to re-upload the iTunes Store account info to the iPhone.

  • Why is my 'purchased' song not downloading?

    i keep getting a notice that i have 'one item available for download' and when i press the button, nothing happens...

    It shows that it is downloading but it doesn't show up on my music library,  it shows under "not on tihsiiPad" list.  Then I choose the song to download, it goes through the download process without an error message but still doesn't show up on my music library.

  • ITunes copies some songs twice onto IPod for no apparent reason?

    I've noticed that my IPod/Itunes sometimes copies songs twice into my IPod. I used to manually manage music, but I just changed to sync mode in hopes that it stops copying music twice. I just wanted to know if theres a way to fix it or if its unavoidable. Using Itunes 7.0.2 and have an 2g 8gb ipod nano.

    A spelling or punctuation mistake, or sometimes a trailing space usually causes this after the artists and/or song name, which fools the iPod into thinking that there are two different artists or songs. The trailing space is the hardest to spot.
    Best way to cure this is to go into iTunes, highlight that artist and/or songs, right click on them and select "get info".
    This brings up the multiple song info window. In the artist or song box retype the name, as you would like it, and then click ok. Do this even if no mistakes are immediately visible.
    Re sync this new artist/song info to your iPod.
