Cant download past purchases

I've followed the instructions to download previously purchased songs to iTunes (I am using 10.3.1), however when I get to the Purchased page, I only have the tabs Apps and Books showing. It has no Music tab. I have 71 purchased songs showing in the purchased section on the left hand menu of iTunes so what's going on here? I'm trying to locate a song I downloaded only three days ago on another computer. Any suggestions anyone?
From your Purchased page, click the tab for the content type you're looking for (Music, Apps, or Books).

You can copy the song from your MacBook Air to your iMac, and then add it to the Purchased playlist.
To do this:
Locate a USB flash drive, external hard drive, or some other form of external media. We will use this to copy the song to the iMac.
Open iTunes.
Locate the song in question.
Select the song, then from the File menu choose "Show in Finder".
Select the file in the Finder and then from the Edit menu, choose Copy.
Navigate to the external storage device you connected in step 1.
Paste the file to the device by clicking the Edit menu and then click on Paste.
Eject the device from your MacBook Air.
Connect the device to your iMac.
Using the Finder, open the external device and select the file pasted in step 7.
From the Edit menu, choose Copy.
Navigate to your Home folder by clicking the Go menu option, then click on Home.
Navigate to Music > iTunes > iTunes Media > Automatically Add to iTunes.
From the Edit menu, choose Paste.
Now open iTunes, and it will automatically import the song that you pasted in the last step. Once it has been imported, locate the song using the search feature. Once you've located it, simply drag and drop it onto the "Purchased" playlist on the left hand side of the iTunes window. Click on the Purchased playlist to confirm that it was added.
Hope that helps, have a great day.
