how do i get my music back

You buy one and only one download.  it is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
You can try contacting itunes support and asking for a exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

  • I had to get a new iphone and i couldn't back it up first, So im trying to redownload the music and ringtones i've bought off of itunes. I found under purchased my songs how can i redownload all the ringtones i bought off itunes?

    I had to get a new iphone and i couldn't back it up first so im trying to redownload all of the songs and ringtones i purchased i found my songs but how can i redownload all the ringtones i have already purchased.

    Apps can be re-downloaded for free (instrutions here : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519). Media (musiv, films, tv, tv shows) can only be downloaded once, which is why you are advised to make and maintain backups of your content, especially purchased content. You can try contacting Apple via the Lost or Missing Items under the Music Purchases tab on this page http://www.apple.com/uk/support/itunes/ - but Apple are under no obligation to let you re-download any content (and if they do it may be on a one-off basis, and you might not be able to do so again in the future)

  • HT1391 I deleted my ringtone from iTunes because I couldn't sync it to my iphone or play it in itunes through the iphone, and now I can't get it back.  I have the purchase receipt...but how do I get it back????? If I can't, can I get refund?

    This is ONE of the MANY reasons, I have held off on getting and iPhone.  Because the ONLY option in getting the music onto it, is by using itunes, instead of just being able to drag and drop.  This is annoying as F***.
    I paid for and downloaded a ringtone from the iTunes store.  It was working fine. Then I hoooked up my iphone to my bf's laptop, competely forgetting that it had already been synced to MINE, which is broken and toasted.  For some reason, it deleted everything off my phone, I spent 3 hours trying to figure out how the **** to get music back onto my iphone using itunes.  It's NOT a user friendly program, and being a computer savvy as I am.....I HATE USING IT. But unfortunately, I don't have a choice. So, I was able to get the two ringtones that I created with my free ringtone maker app BACK into my phone.  But go figure, the one that I actually paid for, I can't get back on.  It was in my itunes, and on my iphone...but had the exclmation mark beside it.  I have already gone to the support page and followed the instructions for retrieving it.  I have manually deleted it from my computer SINCE this discovery, by deleting it from itunes.  So....to make sure yall are understanding this...I tried tracking it down by searching my computer....and I couldn't find it, although it was still listened on BOTH my itunes on my laptop AND in my iphone.  I trued to manually delete it from the iphone....wouldn't work. So i manually deleted it from itunes.
    My question is this....
    HOW ON GODS GREEN EARTH DO I GET IT BACK!!!!????
    It's only $1.29 canadian, but man, this program is ******* me off to no end.
    It's stupid that Apple has completely restricted us.  -sighs gritting her teeth- I just want my ring tone back.  That's it.  I can't even figure out how to redownload it....or if I can even do that.
    Please someone help me.  I'm soooo frustrated.
    Thanks

    Never mind I fixed it. Just in case anyone else has this problem, after you reinstall iTunes you have to delete all your old music, and if you have iTunes match all the songs you have saved on itunes match will display and you just have to download them to your Macbook.

  • TS4124 I have around 1000 songs manually downloaded from my CD's to iTunes in my iPhone before an operating system change on my computer deleted my iTunes and had to create a new one.  The music won't transfer to my new iTunes!  How do I get it back?

    I can't figure out how to get my music back onto a new iTunes from my iPhone.  I had to replace my iTunes after an update to my operating system on my MacBook Pro was reversed (found Mountain Lion to be incompatible with many existing programs and couldn't use it).  I had alraedy manually loaded about a 1,000 songs from my CD's and now no matter what I've tried I can't get them back onto my new iTunes!  How can I fix this without re-loading all of these songs?

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • Old music didn't load only music I purchased!! how do I get my old albums back?

    I loaded all my old albums on my devices and when I did the update I no longer have my old music only music I purchased from itunes.. please let me know how to get my old music back, I do have it on a old ipod so I still have access to it.. how to transfer from one device to the other or to my mac computer.. Please help!!

    As I said all music should reside in iTunes. iCloud only recently came out, before that you couldn't reload music. It's always important to maintain a local backup.
    As the music in question was not purchased you can't load it from the iPod into iTunes if you hadn't been syncing as it will attempt to mirror the  iTunes library and erase the iPod. You need 3rd party software to get unpurchased music onto the computer from an iPod

  • My old computer, and external that I had everything backed up on broke. Majority of my music I got from burning CD's that I no longer have. How can I get all my music on my iPod onto my new iTunes?

    Like I said, my back up broke and I can't get all of my music back by transfering purchases because I burned a lot of CD's I had collected from the past. I don't have any of those CD's anymore, so how can I get all of my music onto my new iTunes? Or am I just S.O.L.?

    Phone to Mac,this app lets you easily copy, transfer the music, videos and playlists from any iPod or iPhone directly into iTunes on any Mac.

  • Olp PC crashed, new PC now how do I get my music back?

    Have new PC now. Saved all folders from old PC HDD. Will install iTunes 7.6 on new PC but how should I get my music back from the old PC's HDD? My iPod contains music purchased from iTunes, plus music from alot of CD's I own. WOuld like to recover music from my old HDD rather than synching from iPod (which I don't know how to do anyway!)

    Yes, just delete the duplicates but make sure to keep at least one copy!
    Actually it might be easiest to start over - totally clear your library, and make sure this copy setting is turned off
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61658
    then clear out your new PC's music folder.
    Then add everything back from your old hard drive.
    You only have to authorize one song for the whole PC to get authorized:

  • I've got a new IMAC, but i don't have all my music or movie purchase on it.  I just recently updated iTunes.  How do I get my purchases back?

    Ive got a new iMac and now that i updated iTunes I do not have all my music and movie purchases.  How can I get it all back?.  I used to have it before update

    It doesn't magically transfer itself, you have to do it.  Purchase may present themselves for re-downloading but things such as CD are only on the old machine or on the CD.
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder. If you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)
    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, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio 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 recommends,  "... back up your iTunes library. " (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519).
    Additional tip at https://discussions.apple.com/message/24176756#24176756
      Select the iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes if you have the sidebar displayed, or with the button at the top right.
      Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
      You can re-download your available previous purchases.
