5 Thoughts:

  • Did you purchase these in a different country? If so, these iTunes purchases are not accessible where you currently are.


  • Are you connected to the Internet? If you are not, and these are not downloaded, then skipping will take part, as streaming is not being used.


  • If you have changed your password recently, log out of and then back into iTunes account.


  • If these are downloaded, remove delete these, then redownload them(perhaps they are corrupted).


  • Sometimes purchased items are removed from the iTunes Store, and never become available again. That’s just the way it is :( So, download your purchases for future issues of this sort.
