    You don't need the app to get the downloads, that's just for updates on whats been made available each day. You should be able to download the free items via itunes or on your ipod. :)

    Uk site is Snow Patrol - An Olive Groove Facing the Sea (2009 version) - single

    Might be worth making a free uk account...

    dagnamit, I thought we could pick our own........but I guess 12 free songs is better than nuffink!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,286 ✭✭✭Stoolbend

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,654 ✭✭✭Mad_Mike

    Is that offer for O2 clients not the same? www.O2.ie/treats


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,779 ✭✭✭dmcg90


    Nope, this is Apple's own offer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,024 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    It's a snow patrol song for me? I went to download it and it still said €1.29


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,085 ✭✭✭meoklmrk91


    The OP posted a link to the UK site, the one you have to go to is http://www.itunes12daysofchristmas.eu/. We get a Foo Fighters song, pity cause I wanted the Snow Patrol one and all.

    No, I was on it from my ipod, it makes you post a message on facebook, then goes to the store where it's still €1.29

    Are you sure you went to the .eu site and not the .co.uk cause thats exactly what was happening to me when I went to the UK site.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,024 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    No I used the free app to do it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,085 ✭✭✭meoklmrk91

    When you go into itunes are you logged into Ireland store or the UK store?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,024 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    The settings on my ipod were set to United Kingdom, it's working now.

    Ya that is the o2 offer to. Got the txt to go download it with the o2 christmas treats.
    Good times.

    Got a txt this morning from O2 offering " On the 1st day of Christmas O2 and iTunes give you a free Foo Fighters track. Go to O2.ie/treats to download before midnight tonight, 26th Dec."


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 662 ✭✭✭selfbuilder1


    Works perfect thanks for the heads up. Anything for nothing can't be bad.

    Same for me !!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    The Snow patrol song is for the UK, if you have a UK itunes account then it should be free, but if you sign up on the .eu site it should be a Foo Fighters song.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,024 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    today's song is David Guetta, U.K. gets an Alan Partridge episode.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,492 ✭✭✭Sir Oxman


    I'm registered for the Ireland store and got the link for Snow Patrol and Alan Partridge.
    Think it's a fubar by Apple (I want me 1.29 back!) <---clickhappy, my fault


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,115 ✭✭✭Pdfile


    would it be worth the effort to force the uk download or ?

    dont like anything given so far but if something does come up... :rolleyes:

    Same thing happened to me on the Snow Patrol song..so presumably I'll be charged AND i missed the Foo Fighters track. Back to normal for some reason after David Guetta. Got the Trivial Pursuit App which is not bad at all :-)

    yep the trivial pursuit game is pretty good


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    I'll download the app anyway, just in case I ever get an ipod touch or iphone in the future.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,283 ✭✭✭RobertFoster


    "Happy (Jason Nevins Remix Edit)" by Leona Lewis is the freebie for the 29th. Listening to the 30 second clip of the original, it seems the remix is faster/up tempo. It still has her voice on it though...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,534 ✭✭✭Dman001


    Have to say that the freebies are actually half decent, I thought they would be some free songs from unknown artists.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,026 ✭✭✭✭adox


    Not part of the 12 days of Christmas promotion but did anyone pick up the Lost promotion on the American store? It had the first two episodes of season 1 and five documentary/ round ups, all around 45 minutes long, free to download.

    Yes you will. Easy enough to set up. There's a few threads on how to set one up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,283 ✭✭✭RobertFoster


    30/12 - Morning Sun (Live from Berlin 2009) - Robbie Williams

    Dunno if the freebies are getting better or worse :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,602 ✭✭✭✭Liam O


    2 hits 3 misses so far as from my viewpoint
