Deleted a series from my ipad - now itunes wants me to "re-buy"...what can I do?

hi
I recently purchased a TV series directly on my Ipad without ever watching it on my imac.  Whilst my family and I were away, I needed to add space for some cartoons (as you do) for my children and deleted the series, as I read "you now own the series, it will be added to your imac library, or when re-downloaded, it will be done free of charge"...
Obviously, this hasn't happened and they have asked me to pay again, which, I don't want to do... but I haven't even finished the series!
All computers/ipads are using the same usernames and account details, so there is no miscommunications there.
Really hoping someone can help.
Thank you in advance!!

Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability by Country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this).  Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
Select the iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases.
Reading the limitations mentioned in the first paragraph I would never trust Apple to permanently keep a copy of your purchases.  Once you get them on your iPad immediately download them to your computer and then also to your backup drive.

    What is the GarageBand version that your friend is using?
    If it is GarageBand '11, version 6.0.5, you can buy GarageBand '11 as a boxed retail version with the iLIfe '11 bundle, e.g. from Amazon.
    Then you can upgrade GarageBand '11 to 6.0.5, using this upgrader from the Support page:
                     GarageBand 6.0.5
    GarageBand 6.0.5 will work well with your system.  But if your friend is using the newest GarageBand 10, this will not help. Then ask your friend to send you audio files for each track, so you can recreate the project from the audio.  Or your friend could also use GarageBand '11 for the projects you want to share, that will run well in all newer MacOS X versions, even with GarageBand 10.0 installed on the same system.

  • I have songs both purchased online and downloaded from cd's that itunes is unable to locate. What can I do to get them back and make sure it doesn't happen again as this is the second time this has happened?

    Great, that's what I was looking for.  Thanks for the quick response.  I knew that that feature existed in this router, but I couldn't remember what it was called or where to find it.
    The funny thing is, I recall distinctly setting up the DHCP reservation initially, but when I went to check it now, the reserved client list was empty.  I have no idea how it could have become depopulated, thus opening the door for internal IP address reassignment of the Remote Desktop computer which led to the RDP ports no longer being forwarded to the right internal IP address and thus the failure of the Remote Desktop connectivity.

  • How can I cancel a newspaper app? I have deleted the app from my iPad and itunes

    How can I cancel paying weekly for a newspaper app?

    You may end up having to delete the stalled apps in order to redownload them, but in the meantime.....
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    Try a reboot as well - hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider.
    And .. You can finish the downloads in iTunes on your computer and then sync them to the iPad.

  • Want to get rid of photo on iPad but have no garbage to dump it, came from my laptop, now I want to know how to desync my photo, which computer to I use, which itune do I use?

    Want to download the itune so I may desync my photos.
    Last year I synced the photos from my laptop to my iPad, now I want them GONE. Which itune do I use? There are too many for me to know the right one.
    I read that I go to the right of my screen then I click on library, then click on photo. Guess what, I have nothing of that sort on my screen.

  • When I try to delete a song from my ipad, why does it still show up as being on it in iTunes?

    Just like the question says, Ive deleted the songs from the ipad and when i look in the ipad, they show up grey.

    You don't need to delete them form iTunes on your computer. Notice the dotted circles next to the songs. That indicates that the songs are essentially in limbo. They may not be on your iPad or they might appear in the Music app but will not play.
    Sometimes unsyncing those songs will totally remove those ghost traces of the music nd sometimes, you have to restore the iPad to get rid of those traces of the songs.
    If you Google "grey dotted circles next to songs in iTunes" you will find a plethora of articles that talk about this.

  • I bought Itunes match, when can I delete the songs from my Ipad? It's memory is full and I bought Itunes match in order to free some memory space

    I bought Itunes match, when can I delete the songs from my Ipad? It's memory is full and I bought Itunes match in order to free some memory space. I already activate the itunes match in the Ipad, but it still keeps the songs. Can I erase them?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Go to settings > general > usage > storage and select music. You will see how much space is being used. Swipe to delete.
    This will clear cache. Streaming uses up storage space. If you have specifically downloaded tracks you can delete them individually. Will still appear on your ipad but with the download icon.

  • TS1702 Why cant i permanently delete an app from my iPad? I hate iTunes and do not use it unless forced to!!

    I bought an app today that doesnt function as advertised. My iPad does not sync to a computer. I do not use iTunes unless forced to. Is there a way to delete an app from my iPad directly? Also, why can't I delete permanently something from iTunes??

    To delete an app directly on your iPad, press and hold any of the apps and after a couple of seconds or so they should start to shake. Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking. You can't delete any of the Apple built-in apps e.g. Music, App Store, Game Centre etc. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'
    As to why you can't currently permanently delete something from your account then it's because Apple don't yet allow us to (possibly because people would then accidentally delete things and they wouldn't then be able to re-download them for free) - you can hide previous purchases from your purchase history to make them less visible (and it's only fairly recently that we've been able to do that) : hiding and unhiding.

  • How Can I Transfer an app from my iPad to iTunes?

    Thanks for any help you might be able to provide. I have searched the threads and not been able to find any help.
    My situation is this. I have an app, Stitcher, that allows me to listen to podcasts on demand via my iPhone. I use it frequently. I recently upgraded to iPhone 4, and when I did, it upgraded my app on my iPhone. Due to many dropped calls, I returned my iPhone 4 and resumed using my iPhone 3g. Now in iTunes, when I go to sync, it says that the stitcher app only works with iOS4, which I won't upgrade my 3g to because of speed issues. The only version available on the app store won't work on my phone. Also, I have a backup, but not TimeMachine, so I am not able to pull it off a backup.
    I noticed that I still have the old version on my iPad. So I deleted the app in my iTunes/Mobile Applications folder and synced, but the Stitcher app didn't reappear in my mobile app folder. Is there any way to get the app off my iPad, so I can put it on my iPhone?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Does the app show up on the App List on iTunes? If it does, then it's been saved to your iTunes folder on your hard drive. Do a search for the app, because I just don't think you can move an item from your iPad to iTunes, unless you purchased it on the iPad, which it sounds like you didn't.
    You should be able to re-download the iPad version of the app, if one exists. Contact the developer, who might be able to help out.
    But thanks for pointing out the app. Just downloaded it to my iPhone 4.

  • How do I get the iPad to continue to back up using the 5G free iCloud when it tells me it cannot back up anymore even though I have deleted almost everything from my iPad?

    The iPad keeps telling me that there is no more room to backup. I have deleted almost everything from my iPad and yet I still get the same message.....cannot back up. I do NOT want to purchase more G's as I regularly download all important photos, videos, notes and such onto my iMac. I would like to keep to the free 5 G's iCloud space. Shall I also delete apps that I don't use much, magazines even though there are not any active issue on my iPad?
    Thanks for any help you can give.

    No, you did not have to delete anything.
    You don't understand how iCloud works
    ICloud does NOT backup anything purchased from iTunes (music, apps, movies, podcasts)
    ICloud only backs up your personal data.
    Camera roll, contacts, documents, app data and personal information and settings
    This is how your manage your iCloud account:
    1.    Transfer your pictures and video from camera roll to your computer, Dropbox, or Box for iOS .   These are free apps for iPad and Mac and provide online storage for your photos and documents.
    Once your pictures are safely stored.....
    2.   Go to settings
    iCloud
    Storage and backup
    Manage storage
    (Choose your device if you have more than one)
    Show all apps
         Now go down the list and turn off switch for camera roll and any other app that you do not need to save data for.
          Apps are listed with the largest first.
    If you have several devices sharing iCloud (as I do) you may want to only backup the important device and important app data.

  • How do I delete unauthorized songs from my iPad?

    A friend of mine sent me songs a while back from his iTunes account. Now, whenever I play songs on my iPad, it asks for the password of his iTunes account to be able to play the songs he sent. I simply want to delete these songs and stop dealing with this headache.
    I've tried several things that have not worked:
    I restored the iPad from back up.
    I checked "manually sync music and videos" in iTunes, had it sync no songs, and the songs still remain on my iPad but do not show up under "Music" on the device list under my iPad in iTunes.
    I tried swiping the songs, but it won't let me swipe to delete on the iPad.
    I deleted the songs from my iTunes library and resynced the iPad, but they still show up on my iPad.
    Please help! I'm running out of ideas. I do not want to set up my iPad as a new device, as I have several apps with saved documents.
    Currently, my iPad has only the songs that will not delete on them. They are not grayed out, but when I press them to play, I'm prompted for my friend's Apple ID password.

    I figured it out!
    Basically, because I was restoring from an iCloud backup, iTunes wanted to download the songs from my friend's account, as well as my own collection.
    So to prevent this, I deleted all the songs off my iPad, the grey songs were still there on hold to be downloaded, and backed up to my computer.
    When I restored from back up, all my apps and settings were back in place, and I had no songs in my Music app, not even the greyed out ones.
    Then, I resynced my iTunes music (after deleting the songs from my friend) and it no longer is trying to download those songs.
    I've since gone back to syncing with iCloud and have not had any problems.

    Please see the bold.  If you're out of icloud storage, then you won't be able to backup to icloud unless you purchase more storage, but yet you said you backup to icloud.
    If you really did backup to icloud no data would be loss - sounds to me that it didn't backup since you had no more free icloud storage space.

    You can also go to Settings > General > Usage > Videos > Tap edit and Tap delete.
    If you wish to redownload, go to iTunes App and then tap Purchased. In the header tap Film/TV Series and then click the little cloud with the arrow through it. It will then download onto the iPad again.
