Accidentally deleted song in iTunes, how to retrieve from iCloud?

I accidentally deleted a song I have on iCloud which I had downloaded to my computer. The song still shows in iTunes but when I click on it it says song can't be located. When I go to the store it shows it's already purchased. How do I download the song again?

You somehow deleted the file from the Finder/Windows Explorer. Don't do that. To re-download purchases first delete the track from the iTunes library then follow the steps in the link Chris CA posted.

    I accidentally deleted a purchased itunes song but still have it on my ipod.  Is there anyway to restore it to my laptop from the ipod?  I've seen others with a similar situation and the question was asked if it was still on the ipod but can't find a follow up to point me in the right direction.

    Use the Transfer Purchases command in iTunes.

    I accidentally deleted an app.  How do I restore?

    As long as it's still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to download it, then you should be able to re-download it for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

  • I would like to be able to delete songs in itunes

    How can I delete songs in Itunes.
    I would like a clean delete in the Itunes playlist
    also in itunes recent added musik file and also on my HD.
    Itunes stores and is in charge of its own music folder
    on an external HD.
    If I delete a song in the playlist it does not ask or
    do anything it just deletes the link in the playlist.

    It's actually much better to delete songs directly from iTunes:

    The reason for doing it through iTunes is that iTunes will then have perfect control over what files are in the library. Otherwise you may end up with these "broken links". Files that have the after them, and iTunes can't find them.

    You purchased it directly from Amazon, not the App Store? It was a downloadable application, or one that came on physical install DVDs?

    I have a macbook pro. I recently upgraded it to mavericks. i also had windows 8 in the other partition. but now i accidentally deleted my mac os. how can i reinstall mavericks.? pls hlp me out

    paul dave,
    to reïnstall Mavericks on your 13-inch Mid 2012 MacBook Pro, you can try booting into Recovery mode by holding down ⌘R as your MacBook Pro starts up. Eventually it will show an OS X Utilities menu on the desktop; select Reïnstall OS X from that menu, and follow the instructions which it provides to reïnstall it onto its internal disk.

    Whats a quick way to download all of my songs and videos on my mac from icloud?

    If you're trying to download music and movies purchased from the iTunes store to your Mac, download them as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.  If you're trying to transfer them from your Mac to your iOS devices, sync them with iTunes.  (iCloud doesn't transfer videos, and it only makes your music available if you subscribe to iTunes Match or redownload them from the iTunes store.)
