Why won't book purchased from iTunes store completely download?
I pre-ordered the new Steve Jobs bio. I ordered it off of my laptop. I start reading it and notice Chapter 1 is missing. I delete the book from my iPad, sync the iPad to the laptop, same problem. I delete the book from my laptop and iPad. I reorder a brand new book. Same problem. No chapter 1. Any ideas on how to solve this?

Hi all,
I upgraded to iTunes 11 recently and have now purchased some additional content from the iTunes store. The files have been downloaded but do not show up in my library. A search yields some results but I cannot access the songs in my library nor can I add them to 'up next' although the option is available from the search results menu.
First thing I tried was to add them again manually but the problem persists. Any clues?
Thanks and Best
FrankOK, I found a solution. Here it goes, just in case anybody else comes across this issue:
I deleted all the relevant entries from the iTunes Libary.xml AND iTunes Music Library.xml files (with iTunes closed, of course) and removed the files on the harddrive library structure to another location. I then restarted iTunes and added the album manually to my library again. In my case, I got iTunes to handle my library and the files were thus copied back to my old structure by the iTunes. To finish I reimported the album artwork and that was that.
Hope that I won't encounter this issue with future purchases under iTunes11, this workaround IS a bit of a hassle! -
Can Someone please help me understand why I just got scammed by Itunes for purchasing a song and not being able to download it because it autmatically makes me download it as the old file that I already purchased instead of rebuying it which is not working either.
I'm very troubled by this issue because I have been purchasing music from the ITunes Store for years but the problem basically is that when I try to buy the one song again it says I have already purchased it so it automatically downloads it when I try to buy it again which continues the same problem and I tried to hide it from the purchase menu and that did not work i unhid it and the problem seems to continue can anyone kindly please help me figure out what I did wrong because I'm sure its ITunes Store's fault on this one.

Is there a problem with itunes today? I purchased songs form itunes on my ipad and iphone and they didn't transfer to my macpro. Even when I plug ipad into my mac they still won't download to mac. There was no problem before today. Thanks
Yes, I think there is definitely something wrong with iTunes but I don't think it's happened this year - think it was the last update. If I purchase anything using either my iphone or ipad it doesn't download on my imac. Not every time just most. Also, some of my album artwork is messed up.

HT4623 Why do I keeping "unable to purchase from iTunes Store now try later"
Why do I keeping "unable to purchase from iTunes Store now try later"
Hi Nanas12,
When troubleshooting iTunes Store connection issues, the following articles provide the best information:
First, try signing out of your account in Settings > iTunes & App Store. Once signed out, go ahead and sign back in.
iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311
If the above did not resolve your issue, refer to the following:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
- Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
- Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
- Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
- Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guidefor your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
- Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
- Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
- If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
Thanks,

Why can't I read books purchased from itunes on my macbook pro?
I find it very upsetting that books purchased from itunes on a Macbook pro can not be read on a Macbook Pro.
Many MacBook Pro users are professional authors, reseachers, teachers, ... and we need to manage large libraries of copy protected digital material (journals, book collections, protected imagery, ...) , which we directly reference and include (with citations) in our writing and analyses.
Laptops and desktops are the only viable options in terms of screen real estate (multiple monitors needed), application availability (image analytics, serious statistics, real 2D and 3D modeling, ...) high speed storage attachment (the cloud can't handle many needs) and processing horse power. iPads and iPhones are a few generations away from being adequate for many such activities, which Apple had traditionally supported.
This particular oversight by the folks behind the Apple iTunes bookstore business, stands in stark contrast to what used to be our vision of the premier professional creative platfom. I find this deeply dissappointing and inconsiderate of our long term investment in apple technologies.
Asking folks to simply abandon their investment in copy protected ebook material, purchased on iTunes, is just wrong. -

Can i restore all my music somehow? Even though not all 10,000 songs were purchased from iTunes Store?
Im so devastated and desperate to get my music back.
I deleted my User Account from the old LaptopUnless you subscribe to iTunes Match , Apple does not keep a backup of your iTunes library. Even then it is not the library as it exists on your computer, but some version of the media, and only media files, not playlists. Even then not all media are definitely available since anything removed from the iTunes Store since you purchased it is not available for re-download.
FAQ: Why iTunes Match Can Not Be Used as a Backup - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4112
Using Match as a backup for iTunes - https://discussions.apple.com/message/17039436#17039436
In your case it sounds like you will have to obtain non iTunes purchases from their original source or a backup you may have made at some time in the past. -
Trying to use music purchased from iTunes store with a home movie
I am making a home movie for family use only in either iMovie or Final Cut Pro, but neither app will allow me to use music purchased from iTunes store. Why not? It's not a licensing issue b/c there is no distribution other than my family at a big birthday party. The music imports but acts as if it has no audio once the file is imported to either program. help!
macbook Mac OS X (10.4.6)
ibook Mac OS X (10.4.6)Put the purchased songs into a playlist. Set iTunes burning options to burn AUDIO CDs. Burn the playlist to an audio CD (you can use a CD-RW if you don't want to waste a blank). After it is done, reimport the tracks off the CD. Now use the reimported versions in iMovie or FCP and they should work fine now.

How can I transfer some songs from my ipod to my itunes library although they are not purchased from itunes store?

How do I authorize my new PC to purchase from itunes store? It prompts me to go to STORE menu, then choose Authorize this Computer (which i don't see anywhere) or Advanced (which I don't see anywhere).
There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them: -

I have purchased about 30 songs from Itunes store and downloaded on my PC. Had it for a few weeks. When PING was introduced and was downloaded to my system, all the songs I purchased were obliterated. How can I retrieve these so I can download these songs to my Iphone that I just recently purchased? Please advise. Thank you.
Hi, Thank you for the help. I downloaded the new ITunes 10.1 as instructed. I found the Old Itunes library folder. But when I tried to import it to my current Itunes library, it gives an error message:
"The file "iTunes Library 2011-03-22.it" cannot be imported because it does not appear to be a valid exported file."
I don't know how else I can import the songs from this old library to the current Itunes library. Please advise.
