Annoyance:  Downloading Recently Purchased Music

On my shiny new iPhone 6 with IOS 8, i want to only download music that I recently purchased manually.  So I open iTunes on the phone, tap More->Purchases->Recent Purchases...Beautiful.
I start selecting which songs to download from the cloud, and BAM, after the first song it immediately shoots me over to the list of Downloading items.
Ok... I go back through the whole process of getting to the Recent Purchases and scroll to where I was before, and this time, try to select as many songs as I want, as quickly as possible.  Sure enough, after no more than 3 songs...BACK to the downloading list it goes.
I don't want to go to the downloading list.  I want to stay in the purchased songs section so that I can continue to cherry pick what I want.
Is this a feature, or a bug?  Because it is quite annoying to get back and scroll back down to where the songs are that I want.
Any settings available to stop this from happening? 
Thanks!

Get info on an item and try changing something in it (which you can always change back again).

  • HT2688 My daughter has used my computer to log into iTunes and download music but now it won't let me download recently purchased music from my iPad onto my computer. I want to transfer the recently purchased songs onto my iPod so how can I do this now.

    My daughter has used my computer to log into iTunes and download music but now it won't let me download recently purchased music from my iPad onto my computer. I want to transfer the recently purchased songs onto my iPod so how can I do this now? iTunes now says that I have to wait another 55 days! There must be a way to do this since I have paid for them.

    In iTunes sign out of your daughters Apple ID and sign in with your own.

  • Can't download recently purchased music

    I just changed iphones. Recently purchased some music albums, latest one was on my old 4s. all purchases were using my itunes account. Can get all purchased music except this one album. itunes it has 'purchased' as the status but can't download? Tried with both my phone and laptop. Thanks

    Yes, it was a new album in Aug.
    Tedeschi Trucks Band album Made Up Mind. To the right of the album and all the songs has 'purchased'. I can't do anything with it. All of my music was deleted from my old 4s without this album being saved to my laptop. I assumed since they were all on my phone, they were in my iTunes account. Think I have to repurchase?

  • How do I download recently purchased songs from my desktop to an IPOD shuffle?

    Having trouble downloading recently purchased music from my desktop to an IPOD shuffle.  Can anyone help me....step by step?
    Thanks

    Connect the phone to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (if the left-hand sidebar isn't showing then control-S should get it to show) and then use the Music tab on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select the music that you want in the phone's Music app and and sync/apply that selection.
    If you haven't synced the phone to that computer before then you might also find this page useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

    burn to a CD. what must I do to correct this problem if it's mine?

    Cdadd,
    If by any chance you have made purchases with more than one account, you must check for past purchases separately for each account.

  • I recently purchased music and a few songs only downloaded half way through, why is that and how can i fix it?

    I recently purchased music and a few songs only downloaded half way through, why is that and how can i fix it?

    I think this is a more general problem Apple are having at the moment. I have just written in another thread:
    "I am having this problem too. There have been quite a few other threads about it. It applies to single tracks too. They appear to download OK, and show as the right file size and length, but stop playing well before the end and iTunes moves on to the next track. Redownloading them helps sometimes but not always.
    I have only had this problem for the last week or so. The longer the track the more likely there is to be a problem (perhaps obviously)."
    I think it is the tracks themselves rather than iTunes. If you export the problematic track to the Desktop and try playing it with Quicktime it stops in just the same place.

    Why would they?
    Do you have Automatic downloads enabled? Note this only works for items purchased after it is enabled.

    Also, see this -> Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
    But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
    Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
    By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
    That would depend on what you are trying to do.

  • HT201272 I cant download my purchased music onto my new iPhone 5. I bought almost all my music through iTunes over my phone but it wont let me download "ALL"--I have to go in individually to each album.

    I cant download my purchased music onto my new iPhone 5. I bought almost all my music through iTunes over my phone but it wont let me download "ALL"--I have to go in individually to each album. Can anyone help me figure out how to do a single "ALL" music download?
    I even tried synching from mt computer backup but it wont do it.

    You can only sync everything with your one syncing computer/iTunes library. Yu can:
    - Make this your syncing computer by:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    - Use the manual method to copy music and videos from any computer/iTunes library to the iPod. See the manual method included here:

  • "There was an error downloading your purchased music. The disk could no..."

    I am trying to download a Video from the new iTunes 6 and I do have an iPod Video, but for some reason everytime I check for purchases to download it, I get this error message: "There was an error downloading your purchased music. The disk could not be read from or written to."
    For some reason the Apple Team cannot seem to help me with this, does anyone have any idea what is going wrong? I have purchased the video about 1 1/2 ago and no one has helped me from Apple yet. Please let me know....Thanks so much!

    I had this same issue today. I was able to download songs but not videos. It turned out that the machine that I was downloading on was my work machine and my music storage location was redirected to my company server. The path was
    \\Rgafiles-2\bcross$\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music
    I suspected that this redirection was an issue so I installed iTunes on another maching and was able to successfully download the song locally. I then copied the .m4v file to my original machine.
