okay so as my creative zen died, i gave in and opted for an ipod (it's so pretty! i couldn't help it..). fairly easy downloading the itunes etc but i've just bought a few songs and then when i go to my ipod they're not on there. when i look on my computer under my ipod, it says there was a problem putting them on my ipod as my computer is not authorised to play them or something..?
you must all think i'm a right techo phobe!

YES! 2 - 0 To the Ipod!
As for your problem, have you emailed Itunes about it?
Not really an expert in errors, do the songs play on your PC?
oh and i had some mp3 files on my computer already so i sent them to my ipod and they appeared when i click on my ipod under 'my computer' on my pc but they don't appear in my itunes thing or on my ipod. :grump:
But the main thing is, that if its in Itunes and On your ipod its working.
but you say its not on your Ipod?
Then you aint put it in funny enough...
Click Music at the top of itunes on the left, And is that area blank?
If there is lots of writing, then your music is there BUT if there is a ! next to them that means you have moved the files and Itunes can't find them
Is the music copy right protection or something this is really confusing!
my cds don't come from apple.
haha, Well what did you use to Rip your music? Itunes or Media player?
Don't think so.
I use Musicmatch to rip CDs and Winamp to stick them on my iPod. At no point do I ever come accross that piece of shit iTunes and I've never had a problem.
i would've used windows media player to rip the ones i already have on my pc.
thing is i also have some songs i bought off itunes ages ago and it doesn't send them to the right place either! and they don't appear in my 'purchased songs' in my itunes.
why would it matter? i downloaded the latest one..
i had one of them last time and it died. also the only other one zen really have out is the creative zen vision m and i don't like that one.
Go to where you downloaded the files from and see if they have an FAQ or any HELP sections. Almost sounds like windows DRM where you have a serial to let you play tunes.
Why are you buying mooosic?
I did this when I had my iPod. If they're not the right format they get converted automatically.
I'm using a computer but it's not mine so it doesn't have my music on it. But I'm going to get a mains charger soon anyway, so then I'll be able to listen whilst charging.
