How do I download music again I have already brought

Ihad to rebot my computer because it started playing up and I need to downloade all my music again that I have already brought so I was just wondering how I do thsi

You CANNOT.  You buy one and only one download. It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup.
Some people have been very lucky and have been allowed a redownload after contacting itunes support, but this is the exception, NOT the rule.
The rule is ( form itunes terms of service):
"PRODUCTS CAN BE DOWNLOADED ONLY ONCE; AFTER BEING DOWNLOADED, THEY CANNOT BE REPLACED IF LOST FOR ANY REASON. YOU SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BACKING UP YOUR OWN SYSTEM, INCLUDING ANY PRODUCTS PURCHASED OR RENTED FROM THE ITUNES STORE THAT ARE STORED IN YOUR SYSTEM."
http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICE
There is now ay to "do it".
You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception as you have been told, but they are under no obligation to allow this.

    Before backing up my old iphone4 I traded it in for an iphone5. All of the apps I purchased had no problem downloading to my new phone from itunes with no charge, but I can't download music that I have already paid for that was not backed up w/out paying again. How can I get these songs to my new phone without having to buy them again?

    Whether you can re-download music depends upon what country that you are in (and whether it remains in the store). If you don't have a Music section in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone for re-downloading it, then do you not have you library on your computer's iTunes or on your backup of your downloads ? If not then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download

  • The movie I rented at itune store failed to download.  I tried to download it again, but it seems I would be charged again if I download.  How can I download the movie I have already paid without being charged twice?

    Hello ktsuchiya
    If you can get your rental to download by going to Store > Check for Available Downloads, then report the issue to the iTunes Store.

  • How do I download movies that I have already purchased to my iPad so I can watch on an airplane?

    flying tomorrow want movies on ipad

    You can try downloading them as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.  (This is not available in all countries, and must be permitted by the movie studio.)
    Otherwise, sync them to your iPad by selecting them on the Movies tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.

  • HT203167 I restored all my purchases and I still have a song which I bought that is not coming back.How do I download it again free,since I paid for it before?

    I have purchased a song that has been lost and cant get restored.The system restored all except this one song.How can I download it again for free,since I already purchased it.It shows up on the Itunes store as purchased and will not let me purchase again.What can I do?

    Your iPod filesystem is corrupted, most likely due to a timeout by iTunes Sync failure.
    Use DiskUtuility->First Aid-> Repair
    When you connect the iPod Classic to a Mac,
    Dont use the USB port on the Keyboard or any USB hub.
    Disconnect all other USB devices
    Dont browse Internet while syncing.

  • How do I get enough storage to download iOS7 if I have already deleted all of my apps, music, and pictures?

    I am trying to update my iPhone4 to the iOS7 but I do not have enough storage. I don't know how to get more storage. I have already deleted all of my pictures, apps, music, and text messages. However, it's still says I do not have enough storage. I don't know what to do!!

    If you cannot clear enough room on the device to do the update via the phone, then connect the phone to the computer and iTunes and update that way.

  • I have a windows pc.  How can I download purchased items which have become corrupted on my PC.  I can't use iCloud

    I have a windows pc.  How can I download purchased items which have become corrupted on my PC.  I can't use iCloud without an Apple device.  I have gone into purchased but next to each title it merely says 'downloaded'.  I need to download them again.  It will cost a fortune to re-purchase the corrupted music!

    I tried that but it just shows 'downloaded'.  There is no little cloud next to that wording.  On an Itunes help page it shows a 'library icon' once you have logged in but that does not appear on my version of ITunes which is 11.1.  I have lost so many peices of music!  Is this some ploy by Apple to get you to buy them all over again??  Thanks for you response, if you can think of anything else I would be most grateful

  • How can i download music from my computer to my i phone

    how can i download music from my computer to my i phone?

    If the music you are wanting to have on your iphone was purchased through itunes you can then go to your front display to settings>itunes and app store from there you have a toggled switch that allows you to automatically download music and apps by toggling the switch. You will need to toggle the switch below these switchs that allows for cellular data to be enabled if this has not already been enabled. This then will automatically download music and apps directly to your device with no additional charge to you.
    Good luck.

  • How do i download music from one ipod to another ipod

    how do i download music from one ipod to another ipod ?

    It needs to go through your computer's iTunes library.  If all the songs on the iPods are already in your computer's iTunes library, just sync each iPod as desired from your iTunes library. 
    If the songs on your iPods are not in your iTunes library, the approach here is to first off-load the song files from the iPods to your computer's hard drive.  Then, add the song files to your iTunes library, so that it is "consolidated" with ALL of your music.
    You cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store.  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once you have ALL of your music in one iTunes library on your computer, sync your iPods as desired.
