![]() Notice from the screenshot above that when a download is complete, iTunes marks it as " Done" - completed downloads are only visible once you are inside the Downloads screen if you leave it to another section and come back, you will only see relevant information, namely pending and in-progress downloads. Once you resume your download, you can pause it again before it completes (you will see the Pause button re-appear in place of the Resume symbol as soon as the download resumes). To resume a paused download, simply click on its Resume button: notice that the Pause button now displays a Resume symbol (circular arrow) on the button instead. To pause a single download (we explain in the next section how to pause all downloads at once), click on the corresponding Pause button: ITunes also allows you to change (or override) the download order by pausing and resuming downloads manually. Manually change the download order: pause or resume current iTunes Store downloads ![]() At that point, iTunes will download the second, and so on, going from top to bottom. ![]() Then, uncheck the " Allow simultaneous downloads" checkbox: iTunes will immediately pause the last two current downloads, and keep downloading the first one until it is complete. To force iTunes to download only one file at a time, click on the Download section in the left pane (only visible when there are downloads in progress or pending). ITunes allows you to download up to 3 separate files at the same time depending on the speed of your internet connection and number of people using it, downloading 3 files at once (especially large downloads like movies or TV shows), may mean that you have to wait a very long time before you can start watching your content. Enable or disable multiple downloads at once But this same button allows you to manually stop an iPod from being synced, or audio adjustment from being performed, etc. Notice the "x" button on the right: this allows you to cancel the current action: in the case of checking for downloads, this will stop iTunes from checking your account for new downloads. When iTunes is in the process of checking the Store for new downloads (whether this happened automatically or was initiated manually by going to Store > Check for Available Downloads), a progress bar is displayed at the top of iTunes' main window, with an " Accessing iTunes Store." message. Manually prevent iTunes for checking the iTunes Store for new downloads Note that these iTunes Store download settings only affect the current iTunes, and can be different from one computer to another. Two of the iTunes Store settings that control whether iTunes should automatically start downloading any new content from the store as they are available, or if it should at least let you know (download notification) when new purchases are available for download, are covered in another tutorial: learn how to make iTunes automatically check for new downloads (tell you when new downloads are waiting), and how to optionally make iTunes automatically start downloading prepurchased items (actually start downloading them without manual check).
