Can I re-download my purchases from iTunes?

Hello, a couple months ago I purchased some songs on iTunes from my iPod Touch. I didn't back-up my songs on my iTunes library, and then I reset my iPod so that all my music was erased. I read online that you could re-download the songs that you already paid for for free, but when I tried to do so I was told that I had insufficient store credit since currently I am using a gift card on my account and doesn't have much money on it. It told me that I had already had this song purchased and asked me if I wanted to re-download it, and I pressed yes, and that's where I got told I had insufficient store credit. I was wondering if I could get these songs back without completely re-downloading them.

Apple currently does not let you redownload songs. (I know, It *****) the message that you saw was iTunes saying "hey you already bought this song, are you sure you want to BUY it again?"
What you can try to do is email iTunes support and tell them what happened. They will often give you song downloads to replace what you lost if you ask nicely.

  • How can I re-download the purchased in iTunes?

    How can I re-download the purchased in iTunes? I purchased yesterday as I download the album there are many songs came in fragmented.
    Your kind help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks

    If you try to download something that you've already bought, then you don't have to buy it again. You can just press download. Therefore, if the songs are fragmented, you can just delete them and re-download them without paying a penny

    There are a large number of online music download stores that sell lossless (CD-quality) or better-than-CD-quality downloads, known as HD or hi-res.  The iTunes Store is not one of them.  Feel free to check out beatport.com, eclassical.com, hdtracks.com, etc.

  • How can I get music (not purchased from iTunes) and photos from my iPad onto my MacBook?

    I just recently had my hard drive replaced and lost all of my music and photos from it. I have all of my music and photos backed up onto my iPad and iPhone via iCloud.
    I was able to download all of my purchased music from iTunes, back onto my MacBook. The problem is, how do I get the other music and photos from my iPad, back onto my MacBook?

    Is there any possible way to backup music that I did not purchase from iTunes on to iCloud?
    No.
    ... if I happened to break my iPad, or if something happened to my Laptop.
    If you like your music library, back up your laptop.
    If you lose or break your iPad, you can sync your iTunes music library to a brand new one. You will lose nothing.
    If you lose your laptop, or it crashes, or becomes virus-infested, you can restore your iTunes music library from your backup. You will lose nothing. Without a backup though, your music resides only on the iPad, and extracting it will require the assistance of third party (paid) utilities. Worse, there is no guarantee they will continue to function after some future iOS upgrade, since the iPad is not designed to work that way.
    There are dozens of questions every day from people who lost their iTunes music when their laptop crashed. Your laptop will crash - it's only a question of when.

  • How can I can ringtones and music I purchased from itune back on my iPhone5,please help

    how can I get back music and ringtones I purchased from itune back on my iPhone 5

    What you can try to do is install an extension such as Ad-Block Plus, [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus], which will block many different forms of advertising.
    Also, update your Firefox to version 12, and update your plugins to make sure you stay on top of security threats :) [http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/].
    If that fails to work, there is a possibility you might be infected with viruses, try Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]
    Download and Run TDSSKiller [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363]
    Download and Install Microsoft Security Essentials [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials] (not an official endorsement, but I personally recommend MSE as an awesome permanent anti-virus)

  • Why can't I read books purchased from itunes on my macbook pro?

    I find it very upsetting that books purchased from itunes on a Macbook pro can not be read on a Macbook Pro.

    Many MacBook Pro users are professional authors, reseachers, teachers, ... and we need to manage large libraries of copy protected digital material (journals, book collections, protected imagery, ...) , which we directly reference and include (with citations) in our writing and analyses.
    Laptops and desktops are the only viable options in terms of screen real estate (multiple monitors needed), application availability (image analytics, serious statistics, real 2D and 3D modeling, ...) high speed storage attachment (the cloud can't handle many needs) and processing horse power. iPads and iPhones are a few generations away from being adequate for many such activities, which Apple had traditionally supported.
    This particular oversight by the  folks behind the Apple iTunes bookstore business, stands in stark contrast to what used to be our vision of the premier professional creative platfom. I find this deeply dissappointing and inconsiderate of our long term investment in apple technologies.
    Asking folks to simply abandon their investment in copy protected ebook material, purchased on iTunes, is just wrong.

  • Trying to download my purchases from my iPod but it is not working. I have a new OS on an old computer and I can't even download the songs from iTunes because it thinks the songs are already on this computer. What should I do?

    Tried to back up music before new OS was loaded but for some reason, it only kept artists through the letter J. I did not realize that until I restored my iTunes under new OS. Now I tried to download my iTunes purchases from the iPod and I can select the "Transfer Purchases from iPOD" but then nothing seems to happen. I tried to download form iTunes and it says the songs are already on my computer. This is either because I did originally download them to this computer on the old operating system or because the names are still in iTunes even though the file associated with them is not. I'm not sure. I don't know what to try next but it is nearly 600 songs so I need to figure it out.

    Does iTunes recognize the phone at all? Or just the computer?

  • Can't download song purchased from Itunes from one computer to another using same Apple ID

    Hi, I am operating itunes 11 at home, using Mac OS 10.7.5.. I purchased a song at work (also a Mac, I am not sure which version of OSM or itunes). I accessed the purchase of the song in the "Purchased" menu option in itunes on my home Mac. When I tried to download the song at home so I can include it in my Library, I got the following message:
    This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days.
    So: just to be clear:I can only buy something from  itunes from one computer and save to another with the  same Apple ID only every 90 days??? And if that is the case, I have not purchased anything from my work computer within 90 days of this recent song  purchase. That just does not make sense to me, since the license covers 10 devices anyway, and I am using the same Apple ID.
    Let me know if I am not understanding this correctly, or am doing something wrong. It just does make not sense to me that I can't download a purchase I made from one computer to another since I am paying Apple for the music and just accessing it elsewhere, using the same account.
    Thanks so much.

    Thanks for the response. Yes, my husband logged on to our computer and rented a movie for us to view. That is how we use Itunes: I purchase the music, he may purchase a movie or a rental now and then. This is new, it never happend before.
    Also, I contacted customer support, both by phone and email. Not only does someone else using the home computer under a different account trigger this, but so does simply activating my own user id from a different computer (one of the 5 I am allowed to under the service agreement.)
    Customer support was very helpful and lifted the 90 day ban. I called them because I purchased a season pass of a TV show and could not download the first episode because it was a "past purchase" (the episode was not even available to download when I purchased the pass, so “past” is indeed relevant.)
    But I don't see the point of purchasing content from Apple now. This feature limits the accessibility of legal purchases under the service agreement.  Why allow 5 computers per Apple ID if activating one of them limits the ability to download content for 90 days??
    I (used to) buy movies, rentals and TV shows all the time. I don’t have cable, so Apple was the source for all “must have” shows that I couldn’t wait for. Too bad.

  • Can't download movies purchased from itunes on my ipad

    I have many movies purchased through iTunes store.  In the past I was able to download to my iPad to watch when out of wifi.  Now many titles, I cannot.  Previously, I downloaded Avengers and watched, now it won't. Why?

    I had the same issue and was able to fix it...  I went to settings / videos and turned on "show all videos". I did the same at settings / iTunes and App Store.  Then, when I returned to "videos", all of my purchases were there (took a second).  At that point I did NOT get the "watch" button...I DID get the "cloud" icon And was able to download.....
