Apple tv purchases not showing in iTunes

I am using AppleTV 2nd Gen5.0.2 (4250) and Macbook pro 2012 with OSX 10.7.4 and iTunes 10.6.3.
I have just noticed that purchases I made using my AppleTv have failed ot sync to my itunes library.
Having seen a few other threads with this problem I have tried their recommendations.
1) go into iTunes and check for Downloads - My account states all purchases for thsi account have been downloaded.
2) I have found the items on the iTunes store and tried to download from there, but it just states purchased and no options to download.
3) I have searched for an Alias folder and do not have one.
Any ideas?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It's not clear if you've tried this;
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

  • Why apple tv does not show in itune?

    why apple tv does not show in itune?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I assume you have the Apple TV 1.
    Often a restart of ALL your equipment will help, it may also be a result of instaling or updating security software (check your security settings).
    If problems persist, navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

  • Apple TV 1 Not Showing in iTunes 10.6.1, All other devices fine!

    Win7 64 all current updates. Itunes 10.6.1.
    Two ipads, two iphones, wifes iMac all show in home sharing or devices node. However, suddenly after updating to 10.6.1 itunes, Apple TV1 is not there and won't appear.  Wireshark on the pc shows the bonjour mdns query from my pc ip address, and a response from the apple tv, but that's all. itunes never picks it up. The tv will download shows from the internet, youtube, music, etc but now I can't sync my music collection, etc.  Apple has now broken functionality for me in each of the last 2 itunes releases.
    No amount of restarting, resetting, etc etc has fixed.  And the diag tests on itunes NEVER seem to be able to connect to itunes store.  I can view my account info but clicking any links, like Manage Devices, gives an error.
    My version of Windows7 is the N version, I think it was for Europe, no windows media player was installed, etc.  Perhaps the ongoing problems I've had relate to that?
    Who else out there is giving up on apple home sharing products and if so what alternatives are you considering?

    The Apple TV 1 doesn't use homesharing.
    Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

  • ITunes purchases not showing in iTunes and not transferring to iPod shuffle

    I Have been using ipod shuffles for several years as they are small and convenient for running. I have purchased 175 songs on iTunes and been forced to purchase FIVE iPod shuffle devices because the battery life in all five devices degrades after approximately 40 re-charges to the point that I only get 15 minutes battery time after a full charge. This is occurring on every iPod shuffle I have bought inclusing the latest one which is only two months old. A couple of weeks ago, I purchased several applications for my iPad and several new songs. I receive emails after each purchase. However, when I looked at my iTunes account, it showed all the items as a single item purchase and the songs were not even showing up as purchased or in my play list. This tells me that someone at Apple accounting is manually adjusting purchases and not itemizing them and the songs were not even given to me. I had to reinstall my entire iTunes program and they had to reinsert the new songs into my purchased playlist. That is why I couldn't transfer my songs onto my iPod shuffle. Now, with the latest IOS 8.3 update, I am getting all sorts of service problems like it says each time I turn on my laptop that I have inserted a CD or DVD, select the times I want to burn. It was never doing that before. It is also giving me all these warnings too:
    BookmarkDAV_client.exe - entry point not found
    The procedure entry point objc_exception_try_enter could not be located in e dynamic link library objc.dll.
    icloudServices.exe entry point not found
    The procedure entry point objc_exception_try_enter could not be located in e dynamic link library objc.dll
    Apple photo streams.exe entry point not found, etc,
    I purchased four new iTunes songs yesterday and only one of them transferred into my iPod shuffle. I am so tired and frustrated with the endless defects in Apple Products, that soon I am just going to say ENOUGH AND COMPLETELY STOP USING ALL APPLE PRODUCTS.

    The "Purchased" playlist you see on the right can be a little misleading. It's not mean to show all of the purchases you've ever made. To download (or just see) what a particular has previously purchased used this resource. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519

  • Iphone 4S iTunes music purchase not showing in iTunes on Mac

    I purchased a song on my iPhone 4S using the same iTunes account that I use on my MacPro running Lion and the latest version of iTunes.
    The purchased song shows up on my Mac iTunes under "purchased", but it does not show up in Music when I search for the song.
    I did confirm that the song did download to my Mac from the iTunes store automatically. I am an iCloud subscriber and all of my devices have been synched with iCloud.
    Why doesn't it show up in my regular music catalog on my Mac? Any suggestions to fix this are greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hello Pearljamluvr,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post I see that you have transferred your iTunes library to a new computer, and are wondering how to get that content imported into iTunes.  To accomplish this, please see the information and the article outlined below.
    Part 4 (optional): Add back new content
    Copy the iTunes Media folder you created in Part 2 into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder inside the iTunes Media folder you copied in Part 3. iTunes will automatically import the content.

  • HT201272 Past music purchases not showing in iTunes store

    So I've got iTunes 11.0.2 and am trying to access music that I've previously purchased. I've followed the instructions on this page to access them:
    iTunes store -> Music -> Music Quick Links -> Purchased.
    On this screen, all I can see is three tabs: Films, Apps, and Books (screenshot attached). All of them are empty. No Music tab, although I've bought some music just yesterday.
    I'm trying to access some albums that I bought a couple of years ago - they should be available, just as the more recent music purchases.
    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Danny,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Take a look at the article linked below, it will walk you through downloading and displaying hiding iTunes in the Cloud content.

  • Apple TV 2nd generation purchases not showing in iTunes

    I just got the Apple TV 2nd generation for Christmas.  I just last week purchased on the Apple TV the old movie Footloose and the new movie Footloose.  I can see them and play them all I want on the apple tv but they don't appear in iTunes on my computer (either in movies or in purchased on apple tv). 
    On the apple tv they don't appear in my library but when i go into movies and search purchased, they appear there and there is a little cloud next to it. 
    I can see my itunes movie library on the apple tv.
    My apple tv is connected to my computer and the apple id for both my apple tv and computer is the same. 
    Why is this happening? Shouldn't I be able to see my purchases on my apple tv in itunes so that I can download the movie to itunes and put on my ipad or iphone for viwing?

    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes.  Then, try going to the menu item "store" (i think that's it, not at my computer) and "check for available downloads."  If that works great, if not, go to the iTunes Store within iTunes, look on the right for the new Purchased section.  You should be able to download your media from there.  After the download(s) complete they will be seen in iTunes and Apple TV via the Computer > Movies sections.

  • HT201272 purchases not showing in iTunes grid, but showing downloaded under purchases

    After converting to iTunes Match, I made additional purchases from the iTunes store.  They show as downloaded under purchases in the quick links on the home page, however, they do not appear in my iTunes library, Album Grid by Artist, etc.  I literally have to go to the purchases to play those songs vs. pulling them up in the album grid and playing them. 
    Has anyone else encountered this problem?
    Thank you.

    I think the Purchased list in your library only shows purchases made on that computer. If they are music, film, or tv shows have you copied them onto your old computer (or a backup) so that they are in the main sections (Music, Films, TV Programmes) of your iTunes library ?

  • Movies Purchased not showing in Itunes.

    I recently built two computers one running Windows 7 Professional and one running Windows 8 Professional.  On both machines I have had similar issues.  I am running iTunes 11.0.4.4.  Upon the initial installation and running of iTunes I have all of my cloud purchases showing, Music and Movies, along with Match working with my music library.  After a day or so I started getting issues where I was having to accept the license agreement upon opening iTunes and sign into my account and reactivate Match each time I opened the software, I was able to apparently fix this using discussions previously on these forums (thanks b noir). The problem that remains is that while the cloud symbol appears on both the Music and Movies tabs, none of the Movies that I have purchased and are in the cloud are showing, only the ones I have downloaded.
    I have tried all the ususal recommendations of ensuring that in the prefs>store> tab I have Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases check box checked. Additionally, I have the Show movies in the Cloud option selected from the View menu when in the Movies tab of iTunes.  If you have any ideas on troubleshooting tips please let me know.
    Sincerely,
    John

    Try making sure your movies are not hidden . I had the same issue but when i un hid them they all came back

  • Apple TV Purchases Backed Up In Itunes But Will Not Show In Home Sharing On Ipad

    This problem is bizzare.
    Basically I have had Apple TV for a while but really only made some purchases from the interface on the TV the other day. (Besides Rentals)
    Normally I buy the movie directly on my macbook and download it.  Then go watch it on my Apple TV.
    This time I bought on Apple TV then went to Itunes and downloaded it off the cloud.  Any movie I have purchased from the Apple TV will not show up on Home Sharing  (Sharing from my Macbook to my Ipad2)  Even though it was purchased with the same apple id and the movies are physically downloaded to itunes on the macbook.
    If I pull up Sidebar in Itunes 11 and click itunes store and then purchases my movies show up.  (That's how I downloaded them to itunes)  Although, if I click "purchased" from the Sidebar (Under Itunes Store) the movies purchased from the Apple TV do not show up.  It's almost like Apple Tv let me back them up but did not associate them with the itunes account.

    I agree with what you're saying. I just bought Skyfall through my Apple TV because it would allow me to download 1080p (my PC wouldn't) and I specifically recall it saying that this media would be sharable...yet when I'm on my iPad Mini it doesn't show up in Videos > Shared along with all my other non-Apple purchases. This doesn't seem right.
    I tried copying the m4v file to my desktop, renaming it and tried to then import it back into my iTunes library but it didn't do any action. It must recognize the DRM protection.
    I realize now that using my iPad going to iTunes > Purchased I only have the option to download from the cloud, and not to home share it from my PC. I agree that filling up my HD space on my device is not a reasonable solution.
    I see it listed in iTunes on my PC and I right-clicked and selected "download 1080p". Now I have the movie file sitting on my hard drive but I still have the same condition.
    When I checked "Get Info" it shows up as a "Protected MPEG-4 Video File. I wonder if this has something to do with it. Frankly I find the whole purchase/library system very confusing. I never am sure which device to purchase it with or how it will be sharable. Very frustrating. It should be much simpler across all iOS devices. I think DRM issue have a lot to do with the problem.

    Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply. 
    I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago.  I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam.  I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase. 
    Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions.  Could you please explain? 
    I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items. 

  • My Apple TV does not show up under devices, and more.

    Okay, firstly, I am relatively new to Apple ptoducts.  I was recently purchased an Apple TV and a 27 inch iMac by my lady.  And yes, I realize how amazng she is.  She bought me these gifts to ensure that the last two and the next 4 months go by smoothly.  I was struck by a car while it was doing 65+ mph, than struck again by the same car, than ran over and jumped off of.  Yeah.... So needless to say I have severe brain damage, lost memory, a leg that is now 52% titanium and worse, I can not use my right arm.... for now, it may recover with the next two years.  so, I tell you this for a little "guilt" but mostly to excuse the formatting of this email.  It was typed entirely on my iMac and entirely using one hand, and not my primary hand at that.
    I am not new to iTunes, I had a few purchases before this issue.  Between those purchases and my Apple TV "FUN" I have amassed quite a few: Seasons of TV and Movies. 
    1:   When I log in to my Apple TV, I can see all of the purchases that I made using both the Apple TV and those that I made previously using iTunes on my Windows based PC.  All is well.  They are organized by type and sorted perfectly.  That plus they stream quicky and completely.
    2:   When I turn on my iMac and start iTunes, I do not see my TV seasons or Movies under the "Library" section on the left side of my iTunes screen.  I see the options, they are simply empty.  I see no content listed within them.
    3:   I can however select the "Purchased" option under the "Store" section on the left hand side of the screen.  Once inside that options area, I can click on "Download Previous Purchases" in the lower right hand corner of the screen.  From there I can see all of my purchased TV and Movies, including those that I had previously purchased on my old windows PC and those purchased recently on my Apple TV set.  That and I can download them and make them available to my iMac version of iTunes.
    5:   I am unable to see my Apple TV listed under the "Devices" section.  I also do not see the "Devices" section at all, however I assume that is because it is currently emty.
    QUESTIONS:
    A:   Can you stream data such as TV seasons or Moies while using iTunes on an iMac.  Similar to the way that you stream them from your iTunes purchase histor while viewing them on an Apple TV?  Or do I need to download them inorder to view them?
    B:   Is Apple TV shown under connected devices while it is connected to the Wi-Fi netwok?  I can see my Iphone under devices when I connect it with a cable to my iMac.  So I know that my devices section is working.  I simply fear that my Appl TV is not showing up brcause of existing issues.
    NOTES:
    A:   All of my devices are updated with the latest available drivers.
    B:   My Apple TV, iMac and iPad all work on the same Wi-Fi network.  That and they are all connected to the same iTunes account.
    C.   My lady is using a different login for the iMac.  Her iTunes is setup but is not usng my iTunes account, it is using her account and has access to her DATA.  When I log in to the iMac, my iTunes is working and is different from the iTunes that is operating under her username.
    Ok Guys..and Gals please help me out.  The thing is, none of this is truly effecting me in a substantial manor.  I can see my purchase history, I can download parts of it to my iMac via iTunes, and my Apple TV is smoooooooth.  I mainly need clarification on the questions that I asked.  Can I stream using the iMac, should I see my Apple TV under devices, and why do I not see my DATA under the library section of iTunes?
    THANK YOU for you time.  Remember, I am relatively new to Apple as a product.  And I fricking LOVE it. 
    When I was in my accident, my arm, my leg, my skull, my brain, my clothing, my key chain and my wallet, were all destroyed.  But my iPhone survived.  I have records both police and medical to prove this.  The one way I had to have any initial memory of my friends and family was in that phone.  I still have that phone, I always will.  So Apple if you need an awesome commercial for your iPhone, Vince has got your back!!!

    Ok thank you so much, for your timely response.
    RESPONSES:
    1)   When I set up my iMac, I did not transfer any data directly from my windows PC.  I simply used the same iTunes login and account.  I have access to all of the files via the "Purchased" section of the iTunes store.  If I click "Download Previous Purchases"  text, I can download ALL of the purchases I have ever made.
    2)   I have the Apple TV 2, so good news, question answered.  I thought maybe it was the Apple TV 1, but it is the Black model, so bam.  Good response for you.  Well the whole damned reply is an awesome response, just pointing out that one piece of awesome.  I stated that it was an Apple TV 2, and yet you were still good enough to figure I could be mistaken, and provide me with knowleedge just incase.
    QUESTIONS:
    3)   So can my iMac not stream the data directly from itunes, without download?  Apple TV can, but perhaps that is something among many things that maker it unique, and awesome.
    SERIOUSLY.... THANK YOU... 
    I work in the computer support section for the Military.  The only problem is we use Windows , lol.  Well that and i've been gone for nearly 6 months on recover.  I go back next month though I hope.  But working in that field gives me the abilty to judge responses that run inside the same vein.  Your response was so awesome that I half thought I might have written it myself. 

  • I transferred itunes library from old PC to new PC. The content all shows when I launch iTunes on the new PC now. The previous content does not show in iTunes but folder still looks like it is on hard drive on new PC. Suggestions on how to properly merge?

    Before you connect any device to a new library go to the Devices tab of the the preferences panel via Edit > Preferences (Windows) or iTunes > Preferences (Mac) and ensure the box next to Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically is ticked. You can now safely connect the device to your computer without the danger of media being automatically deleted or overwritten.
    To get all your content off your connect your iPad to your new computer.
    Then use a 3rd party piece of software to transfer your content
    I have found Senuti useful but there are others listed in the article I linked to in a previous post.
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    That will let you transfer your non purchased content
    For Purchased content log in to iTunes on the new computer
    In Itunes Store click on Purchased under the Quick Links section on the right.
    Download any music by clicking on the cloud button

  • Mobile apps not showing in itunes after upgrade

    After upgrading to iTunes 10.5.1.42, the apps I've purchased no linger show in the library listing.  They are still on my Windows 7 machine in the folder ...\music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications.  They just do not show in iTunes.  Does anyone know how I can get them to show again? 

    I get to this step in step 5 but I dont have the file/directory
    Double-click the "usbaapl" file. (This file will be called "usbaapl64" if you have a 64-bit version of Windows. If you don't see "usbaapl64" here, or if there is no Drivers folder, look in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers. instead).
    Where can I download the needed file? I think it is called usbaapl64

  • Purchases not showing up

    My purchases are not showing under itunes.  I have hundreds and only 2 show

    Be sure the iphone uses the same Apple ID/itunes account as that on the ipad.  If you use different IDs on two devices, then purchased items on one device cannot be downloaded to the other device short of buying it again.
    Settings>iTunes and App Stores, check each device to be sure the ID is the same.
