Downloading previous purchases in iTunes in Iphone
I am "downloading" previous music purchases done in my iTunes (in my Mac) in my new iPhone, after I did home share. Are these "downloads" free? and also, will I be able to listen to these downloaded music even when I am not connected to my home wifi?
You can re download past purchases for free but make sure to use the same Apple ID.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
will I be able to listen to these downloaded music even when I am not connected to my home wifi?

Download previous purchases from itunes to new computer
how do i download previously purchased audiobooks from itunes to a new apple computer
If you don't have a backup, it's probably cheaper to buy them again. Recovering data from a failed drive may cost hundreds or thousands of dollars.
Alternatively, the iTunes Store staff may allow you a free redownload if asked, but will only do this once per person.

Hi,
I recently tried to download all of my past purchases in itunes to my iphone through the phone itself. I didn't have a computer available to simply sync the music. Some of the songs downloaded with no problem but the rest didn't and an error message comes up saying 'Unable to download songs' and when I click 'retry' nothing happens. These songs cannot be played on my phone and have a stop symbol beside the track title. My internet connection is fine so I don't understand what the problem is.
However, I do now have a computer with itunes that I could sync to my phone but every time I try to sync the songs they look the same on my iphone. I.e. the tracks still have the stop symbol beside them and I keep getting the download error messages. Does anyone know how to delete/cancel these downloads so that I can remove all the music from the iphone and simply sync it to itunes?
Any help would be very appreciated!Go to Settings > Music and make sure "Show All Music" is off. Then only actually downloaded music will be displayed. With it on, you can see all your music stored in the Cloud as well. That music will always be in the Cloud (until such time as you download it) but it isn't present on your device.

Is there an easier way to download previous purchases on itunes?
I have bought over 2000 songs from iTunes and was wondering if there was an easier way to download them onto my new computer other then going through each artist and hitting download. I would greatly appreciate any answer because as you can tell 2000+ songs is a couple hundred artists and I was hoping to find a faster way of doing this.
Yes you can press download all for the specific artist inside of purchase history but like I said in my issue there is still hundreds of artists and you can only do up to 3 artists (which can sometimes be 30 songs) at a time before it starts to lag. I am wondering if there is a universal download all area for all songs period in which I am yet to find and yes I went back and looked after your comment. If this is what you meant could you elaborate more because I must have misunderstood.

In California - no download previous purchases option in 10.3
I'm in California, but not getting an option to download previous purchases in iTunes 10.3 on my i7 MBPro. (Works fine on my i5 iMac.) Both run OS 10.6.7. I've uninstalled/reinstalled iTunes 10.3, including .pkgs, .plists, iTunes helper, etc, and I've deauthorized and reauthorized the M with no luck.
I found the solution here:
Correct Answer Re: Step by Step iCloud iTunes 10.3
I had never made any iTunes store purchased previously on my MB Pro. As soon as I began downloading using the solution at that link, the Purchases link appeared in the left sidebar under Store. -

How to download previously purchased ringtones from itunes to my iphone?
Ringtones (and audiobooks) can't currently be re-downloaded from the store. If they are no longer on your device then have you not got them on your computer and/or on a backup ?

How do I download previously purchased albums from iTunes when the album has either disappeared from my computer or the tunes are not playable? The albums show as purchased on the iTunes store, but not available to download to my authorized device. I also have albums that appear in my library, but are not able to be added to my iPod from my computer
When you download something from the iCloud, it is a brand new licensed copy. Your iCloud account just contains a notation that you have this app. It isn't storing an actual copy of the app from your Mac.

I have been trying to download previously purchased Audiobooks from the itunes store to my new computer and ipad. I tried calling the apple help line but they want me to spend $69.99 for the help plan. these purchases are over a year old and on my old ipod now i want them on my new devices. I am starting to get very irritated!! please help.
Are you running the most current version of iTunes? If you are, you should be able to go into the iTunes Store, and click on Purchased under the Quick Links. (You have to be signed on, and the computer has to be authorized to do this). Once you have selected the Purchased from the Quick Links, you should see a tab for Books - your audiobooks should show up there and be available for downloading.
This is all assuming that you sync'd those books to the iTunes library on your computer. If you have not, you will need to sync the iPod first....

Connected to iTunes store, but can't download previously purchased items?
When I set up a new computer last week, the Home Sharing process left a lot of holes in the iTunes library on my new computer. I went to the iTunes Store to download previous purchases in an effort to to fill some of the gaps. Initially, I was successful -- though the iTunes store would only download a couple of hundred files at a time. However, I can no longer make the "download previous purchases" function work, even though I still have around 350 files that it recognizes as available for download. When I click the "download all" option and enter my password, I consistently get a message like, "This item is currently unavailable. Try again later." This has been going on for more than a week. What can I do to make this work?
As a separate matter, iTunes only seems to recognize about 1100 of my previous purchases, though the real number is probably closer to 3500-4000. That is not critical, since I had MP3 backups for almost all of my ITunes purchases on an external hard drive. However, the process of reconstructing my library probably would have been easier if I could have restored more directly from iTunes. If anyone has encountered this kind of problem and figured out how to solve it, I'd be interested in case I ever have to go through the process again.I had an issues similar to this with purchased music not all that long ago, and rebooting (I think) is what got it working for me again.
See if this helps - sign out, restart, sign in again and try again.
Settings>iTunes & App 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>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.
I would suggest rebooting the router - unplug it for about 30 seconds, and you can try that - but I'm not sure if that will help. It won't hurt anyway. -
Can i delete a movie from my computer that i've previously purchased in itunes and then download again when I want to watch it? Seems like this would help me manage storage space.
Yes, provided the movie is still in the iTunes Store.
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.
