How do I get my purchased Itunes, which I can see in my Itunes account library, transferred to a folder on my computer so I can use them?

Hello apple1helpme,
It sounds like you would like to download your iTunes purchases to your computer rather than streaming them from iTunes in the Cloud. I recommend downloading your purchases directly to your computer using the Purchases page in the iTunes Store:
Download previous iTunes Store purchases to an authorized computer
Click iTunes Store near the top of the iTunes window.
Click the Purchased link at the right of the iTunes Store homepage (below Quick Links).
In the page that appears, select a category.
iTunes shows you which of your purchases are available for download. You can view all of your past purchases, or just the ones not currently in your iTunes library. Items already in your library aren’t available for download. If you select Music, you can view your purchases by song, artist, or album. If you’re viewing by album, click an album to see which songs on it are available for downloading.
To download all available items, click Download All.
iTunes 11 for Windows: Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store

How do I unlock my email? The grouped email page (I have 3 accounts) shows an item as downloading, but never makes any progress. I also can't get to Mail, Contacts, etc. under Settings.

How do I unlock my email in my iPad? The grouped email page (I have 3 accounts) shows an item as downloading, but never makes any progress. I also can't get to Mail, Contacts, etc. under Settings. Have reset the device numerous times.

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:

TS2446 How do i get my security answers which I have entered while creating my account

How can I retrive my security answers which I had given while creating my account

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

HT201272 When iTunes was upgraded to the lastest (11.0), many of of songs/music/audiobooks were deleted! I tried syncing my phone to my computer to get them back, but many of those were deleted too!   How do I get my purchases back to play them???

It shows on iTunes SOME of my past purchases, but not all (looks like around 30-40% of purchases).    It shows on my apple id purchase history everything i have purchased; but in iTunes, some not all of these show up.    What does show up is kind of "greyed out", so NOTHING will actually play.   I have followed the steps in the iTunes support about how to redownload past purchases, but this dowsn't work, as the download button is also "greyed out".
I am extremly angry and upset about this issue. Could someone please help / advise re how to fix????

I'm hoping that this may be just a misunderstanding somewhere.
Could you show an image showing these greyed out items?

How do I get my purchased movies from iTunes to show in my Library without storing all the GBs on my hard drive? [I want to show the Cloud Purchases.]

Hey Hey!
Running OSX 10.9.4 and iTunes 11.3
I am pretty sure that this has been addressed somewhere, but I could not find it - so thanks up front!!!

Thanks!

Deborah,
You cannot import contacts from your Nano to your PC via iTunes. The syncing process is only one way. However, if you enable disk mode on your iPod, open it up in a Windows Explorer window, you should see a Contacts folder. From there you can copy them back over to your PC.
Even though this article is talking about adding contacts to the PC, it should walk you through some of the steps mentioned above.

Movies are not re-downloadable anywhere but in the US at present, so unless you are indeed in the US, you'll need to restore the movies from your backup.

I am on a shared computer with several profiles. I had to delete my profile and create a new one. Now, my question. It transferred to Purchased Items to the new iTunes, so how do I get the rest of the songs to transfer to new iTunes?

It sounds like you might have broken links to your content. Either repair these by putting the files you've recovered where iTunes expects to find them or delete the broken entries then go to iTunes Store > Purchased > Music > Not on This Computer, and click the download links.
If you have an Apple device see also Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

3) Under the File Menu, select "Add to Library." Navigate to the folder with your music in it and click "Open." Bam! Music.

How do i get my purchased music back on my iphone ?

I recently just backed up my iphone on my laptop, however i was moving music over from my lap top onto my phone and it didnt like it. so i was prompted to restore my phone. which i did.
however now i have lost all the music i brought on my iphone which im not happy about.
how do i get it back??? or find it
please

No iTunes content on your iPhone is included with the iPhone's backup, but if you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, any music purchased direct with your iPhone will be copied to your iTunes library automatically the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after doing so.
If you are in the US, check this link.

OK. Sign into yours. Copy the files either to the Shared files area, or to a flash drive.
Now sign out of yours and into hers. Copy the files out of where you put them in the previous step, and into her Automatically Add to iTunes folder, which is found inside the iTunes Media folder.
Do it the first time with two ro three song files, so you can get comfortable with how it works, before you do the bulk of them.

HOw do I get my purchased music back after having to restore my Ipod touch

I had to restore my Ipod touch because of a corrupted file. How do I get my purchased music back?

The answer is that the iCloud advertising in Danish speaks of restoring apps, books and music and shows this, and in small print / gray print adds that in some countries this is not available. The Danish copy does not say that in Denmark the service is unavailable (suppose the English copy in US spelling showed the service, but did not say that the service was unavailable in the US).
http://www.apple.com/dk/icloud/features/apps-books-backup.html
Gendannelse, der ikke er et stort projekt.
Når du indstiller en ny iOS-enhed eller skal gendanne oplysningerne på en, du allerede har, klarer iCloud-sikkerhedskopiering det tunge arbejde. Forbind enheden med Wi-Fi-netværket, og indtast din Apple-id og adgangskode. Dine personlige data – og musik, programmer og bøger købt fra iTunes – vises på enheden.2
2. Sikkerhedskopiering af købt musik ikke tilgængelig i alle lande. Tidligere indkøb gendannes måske ikke, hvis de ikke længere findes i iTunes Store, App Store eller iBookstore.
After another couple of hours of hunting around, a Knowledge Base article in Danish turns up which begins by saying that purchases from the App Store, the iBookstore and the iTunes Store are restorable, but in small print / gray print advises which countries the service in fact covers. Denmark is not covered.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4539?viewlocale=da_DK
I iTunes 10.3 3 og iOS 4.3.3 eller nyere (iOS 5 eller nyere til iPhone (CDMA-model)) kan du automatisk få overført køb fra App Store, iBookstore og iTunes Store til dine andre computere og enheder.
Automatisk overførsel af musik og overførsel af tidligere købt musik er for tiden kun mulig i Argentina, Australien, Belgien, Bolivia, Brasilien, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cypern, Den Dominikanske Republik, Ecuador, El Salvador, Frankrig, Guatemala, Honduras, Irland, Luxembourg, Malta, Mexico, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Slovakiet, Spanien, Schweiz, Storbritannien, Tjekkiet, Tyskland, USA og Venezuela.
Naturally, the Danish copy should in both the advertising and in the additional information start by clarifying that music is not restorable for Danish customers. Instead, the Danish copy extolls a service that does not cover the iTunes Store in Denmark. The term for this in Danish is 'vildledende markedsføring' which is to say that the marketing is misleading.

You should be able to copy iTunes purchases to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. For music that you've bought from other sources or copied from your own CDs then have you not got a backup of them on, for example, an external drive that you can copy onto the computer ? If not then you will need to find a third-party program to copy them off - this post mentions some that were around a couple of years ago, whether they still exist and work I don't know.

I was 3-4 updates behind on ipad. Did back-up, installed update to ipad now how do I get my purchased apps back on my ipad?

I was 3-4 updates behind on ipad. Did back-up, installed update to ipad now how do I get my purchased apps back on my ipad? I assume they didn't back up to cloud since that came with this update. I can see all my purchased apps but no way to transfer them back to my ipad from whereever they are. Wish itunes was more user friendly. Help please.

If you are running iTunes 11 and if you didn't figure this out yet, when you launch iTunes - go to View>Show Sidebar from the menu at the top of the screen. Once you can see the sidebar, iTunes looks so much more familiar.
The "new look" iTunes doesn't appeal all that much to me, I just want the functionality that I have always had. It's still there, its just been hidden with a lot of fluff and visual wow that I really don't care about .... Just my opinion.

How do I get my purchased Itunes, which I can see in my Itunes account library on my computer, downloaded to a folder on my computer so I can use them?
