Apple TV purchased items mysteriously disappearing.

I purchased a season of a TV show, and I downloaded directly to Apple TV. I have a first gen box. I contacted Apple and they claimed they "posted the missing items to my Apple ID". When I checked my Apple TV unit - some of the missing items appeared. Then they mysteriously disappeared again! I have sent multiple emails to Apple Technical Support and they have now stopped responding to my emails. I called Technical Support and they were no help. I saw on a discussion board where if you repurchase the items Apple will recognize that you already purchased, and allow you to download at no cost - NOT THE CASE. I tried, and I was asked " Are you sure you want to repurchase items?" There is an ITunes option to download previously purchased music and apps BUT NOT AN OPTION TO DOWNLOAD PREVIOUSLY PURCHASED MOVIES OR TV SHOWS.
Note I am running the most recent version of Itunes and I am running the most recent software for Apple TV.
This i

I am the only person with access to the unit. I live alone. I doubt that Apple purposely "deleted" the content. It should have downloaded but I believe it did not. It believe the content was streaming, even though I opted to download. THe point is that Apple has not corrected the provblem. It has not provided the content for download even though I purchased it.

My purchased items have disappeared from my iphone after I transferred them to itunes

I plugged my iphone into my computer, just so that I could sync some music and it starts automatically transferring all my purchased items, including songs, movies, and apps, onto my itunes. I tried to stop it but everytime I did and pressed sync again it would just start doing it again, so I let it. Now when I go on my iphone the music and movies and books that I had purchased and got transferred to my itunes aren't there anymore. The music will still show up in my library but when I click on it it doesn't play and just goes straight to the next song. How do I get my purchased items back on my iphone? And is there a way to stop itunes from automatically transferring the purchased items?

You can re-download all purchases for free. Log in to the iTunes Store with the Apple ID you used to purchase them, then select Purchases tab.

I have downloaded some new tunes onto my ipod but now find some of my already purchased items have disappeared.WHY?

Can anyone help??? I have downloaded some new tunes onto my ipod but somehow some purchased items have vanished from my Library & have been wipoed off my ipod. Help

You can only synce an iPod to one iTunes Library/one computer. However, you can manage music among different computer . see:
Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
If you want to transfer non-iTunes purchased music from an iPod to a computer other than the one you synced the music from you need to use a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

Does Apple delete purchased items from our devices?

A song which I purchased last December has been removed from my MacBook Pro without my instigation or permission. When I tried to download it again I now must buy the entire album, which I don't want. I suspect this deletion was done by Apple. I'm glad I still have the song on my iPhone, iPad and iPod, where it had been synched. What is Apple's policy about removing items which have been purchased from a user's library? I am very hesitant to make any future buys.
MacBook Pro always has the latest system (currently 10.9.4)
iPhone IOS 7.1.2
iPod IOS 1.1.3
iPad IOS 7.1.2
The song was purchased on 12/9/13.

Where are you looking ? My account's purchase history (Store > View Account menu option) shows all of my purchases. If you mean in the Purchased link for redownloading then have you changed countries since buying the items ?

Keychain items mysteriously disappeared

After returning from a trip overseas, I came home to a computer with about half of the original keychain items saved. Initially I thought that my browser (Omniweb 5.5) was not accessing those items, but after opening up KC I was surprised to find about only 100 of the original 250 items there.
Any ideas? Can't recall if this happened before or after applying the latest security update.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the feedback.
Reset Safari, IIRC, also deletes your com.apple.Safari.plist, bookmarks, history, cookies, and any passwords to sites you've already visited that require them. As a precaution, whenever I plan on resetting Safari, I always make copies of these folders in ~/Library: /Cookies, /Keychains, and /Safari and the /Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist and after resetting it, reinstall them if they were deleted or replaced
I think you definitely hit on what caused the problem. Good luck.

Apple TV purchased items

My son is here in UK and cannot see his purchased films in i-tunes when he logs on to his account on my Mac. He says in Singapore his i-tunes shows a Cloud which he clicks to see his stored films but in UK there is no Cloud to click. Anybody have an idea !!

Well, you do realize that content is country specific.
I'd be surprised if he sees anything at all. Is he at least seeing the movies, just not the cloud button?

Hello everyone, I have a problem when I sync my apple device. I plug it in and a message comes up saying, this device could not be synced because this computer is not authorized for the purchased items on this phone. I already tried to authorize again.

Hi applerinneedforhelp,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If iTunes is asking you to authorize the computer, and you've already done so, the troubleshooting steps in this article can help:

The user profile my appleTV was synced on my computer to no longer works (corrupt). My Apple TV is still synced to that profile and all of my recent purchases are going to that username. Does anyone know how to get all of the purchased items back and to the new user (same computer)? I created a new user on my computer and moved the itunes folder to the desktop but never changed the path to which the apple synced to. Now I can only see old items I purchased before the user profile went bad. PLease help!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Changing the library the Apple TV is synced with will delete all synced content from the Apple TV, but it won't delete purchased content.
You should be able to change the library, resync any content you want and transfer your purchases back to the new library.

I changed my apple ID and lost everything. How do I get all my apps and purchased items back?

Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

I purchased a movie via Itunes and it does not display as a purchased item on my Apple TV yet A TV show I bought does.

I purchased a movie via Itunes and it does not display as a purchased item on my Apple TV yet A TV show I bought does. The only way I can view it is if I turn on home sharing and the movie is downloaded to my PC. Is this normal?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Perfectly normal, purchased items only applies to TV shows, the studios have not licensed movies for redownloading.

HT1386 Help, I can't sync my apps on my 3GS phone to the newest iTunes software. On top of that, my purchased apps under my apple ID seem to have disappeared! I want to transfer them to an iPhone 4S I just inherited, but I can't!
