Have purchased music through itune app on my iphone, now my iphone is dead

I have purchased music on my iphone through the iphone app, unfortunately I haven't backed it up in my itunes library on the pc, now my iphone is dead, won't even restore to factory settings, can I retrieve the music already purchased on my iphone or have I lost it all?

On my Win 7 pc, I installed latest itunes and went to the new quick link "purchased" however this only allows me to redownload apps and books,no music. Do i need to wait for IOS 5 for my iphone to enable me to download all of my lost music (as per the site this version of IOS is not scheduled for release until the fall?)
What I find puzzling, is that under my "account details" from the Itunes store on my WIN 7 PC I can see my history of purchases going back to 2005 but cannot download to my devices ?
Any suggestions ?

When I purchase music through iTunes from my MacBook Pro, my iPhone 4 iTunes app cannot detect those purchase to allow them to download to my phone. If I open up the iTunes app and select "purchased > music > not on this iphone" it tells me "All of your available music has been downloaded to this device." However, my purchases are not yet downloaded to the iphone and not available to download. If I go to "purchased > music > all > recent purchases" it will show me the purchases that were most recent the last time I synced my phone, but not the purchases since then.
Any thoughts on how I can remedy this and make all of my purchased music available on my phone without requiring syncing?

So I have been searching the iStore for Airplay and I find lots of information about what it is, but nothing about how much it costs, how/where to buy it, etc.?
Fortunately, AirPlay does not cost anything as it is a streaming protocol used by Apple. Currently, the AirPort Express and Apple TV are AirPlay-ready. A number of other companies, like JBL, iHome, Denon and Klipsch are also rumored to be working on AirPlay versions of their products.
Your other option would be to get an AirPort Express and connect it to your Onkyo analog or optical digital audio input and stream from iTunes that way. I currently do this with my 10+ year old Harmon Kardon HT receiver.

If you are now in the US then you can only use the US store, so you should update the address on your account
Changing country : Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account.
Had you copied the songs over to your computer's iTunes library, do they show in the Music section on it ? You can copy purchases that you still have on your iPad over to your computer's iTunes library via the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option

Re-downloads of music through iTunes app interrupts music on iPhone.

When I go to download purchased music through the iTunes app, every time a song finishes downloading, the sound of music playing drops out for a second. Half the time the music stops playing all together and I have to go and re-hit play. The dropout is just like when you get an email during audio, but without the little ding.
I downloaded an album with 21 tracks and for every single track, this phenomena happened. Very annoying.
Is this normal? And is there any way to prevent it?
I'm looking forward to iCloud and iTunes Match, but I don't want this to happen every time I pull music down from the cloud while I'm listening to music.
Thanks.

APPLE! FIX THIS! I bought an album and now it gets interrupted the whole time I'm excitedly listening to the beginning of the album for the first time.
I cannot imagine this in an iPhone comercial because it's super annoying...so that's my standard of features for the iPhone. You wouldn't be proud to show this to future consumers so please fix for the future...I bet you will!

I have purchased music from itunes on my iphone and it won't show up in my Ipod music library on my phone. It shows up in my itunes library on my computer. This is a recent glitch as up until this week purchased music downloads fine on phone.

I purchased music on itunes on my iphone and the songs won't show up in my music library on the phone. They are on my computer itunes library but it won't let me transfer the purchases back to my phone (which I have never had to do before). Never had this problem before this week when purchasing music on my iphone.
My Itunes library on my laptop is slightly different from my Iphone library so I don't want to erase and sync the entire library.

In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in. Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

HT204074 My roomate and I have separate apple id's both have purchased music on iTunes and have authorized eachother on our computers. What happens if he makes his computer one of my iTunes Match devices? Will he still be able to use his music and mine

My roomate and I have separate apple id's and we both purchase music from iTunes Store on our own id's. we authorized eachother as users on our computers. I recently purchased iTunes Match. If he sets his MacBook and iPhone 4 as one of my devices (1of10) on iTunes Match will he be able to see his purchases and mine on his computer? Will I be as to see his? Can he still use his apple I'd? I'm new to this....
FYI I have iPhone 5 and windows vista my roomate has iPhone 4 and a macbook

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately, if Apple simply allowed people to log into different accounts and download content, everyone would be using everyone could share everyone else's content and bypass the need to purchase anything. To protect against this, they limit you to logging into a new account to once every 90 days.
If two or more of you, have different accounts and use only one computer, you should each have your own user account on the computer, to avoid the need to log in and out of iTunes.

I can't find music files even though I have purchased them through iTunes.

I have 274 music files that my itunes library can't locate. About 75 of those songs I have purchased through itunes store but still can't find and I can't re-download them but they show up in my "purchased" playlist with the i warning next to the song. Please help me determine what is wrong.

Hello Hmahon,
The Default Location for iTunes Music on your Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music/iTunes/
(Username is your Account Name on Mac) go to the location as mentioned above and see if you find your Music there, if No Music is available there then you can download the Purchased songs by Deleting the Dead Tracks from your iTunes Library and then Download it from your Account.
Download previous purchases on Mac or PC :

Can you recover purchased music through Itunes?

I had a skipping issue with my Ipod and finally re-sync-ed it with Itunes but lost about $150 worth of music (that was already on there, all purchased through Itunes but on my dead computer, hence not recoverable)is there any way to recover the music I've lost? Does Itunes store my purchase history? I know how to access the current stuff it's the previously purchased stuff I want. My MIL says I can but did explain how, does anyone know?
Windows XP

If you had no back up I'm afraid the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
"Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage."
You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on any of the links on this page you'll find a space at the bottom to email your query: iTMS Customer Service

HT201269 I am unable to download previously purchased music through iTunes to my new phone. What gives?

I tried re-purchasing the album, and it gives me the option in the music player, but iTunes has the same album grayed out. Getting really frustrated here!

Hey innerev2003,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If, while searching through your past purchases, items are unavailable to download and show a "Purchased" button, they are still on your computer. It may be best to search your iTunes library by clicking Music, then use the search bar at the top right.
If you are completely sure the items are no longer in your library, try signing out of the iTunes Store, and then back in.
