How do I re-download music to iTunes?

     Okay so recently I purchased the Take Me Home (Yearbook Edition) from One Direction on my iPhone. About a week later I wanted to re-download it on my Mac. I went to the iTunes store and searched up the album looking for the "Download" button but instead, it said "Purchased" and it would not let me click on it. Thinking I could just re-download the songs seperately I searched up the songs and it had a price on it instead of saying download. (Now sometimes this happens to me and I just click the price and it says that I have already purchased the song would i like to download it again without charging.....so i do and it works) but this time i clicked the price and it said that I had already purchased it, but it will be debited to my account and the purchase will be downloaded immediately....... Yes I used the same iTunes account for my iPhone AND my Mac.... I found a similar question to mine and it gave me a solution giving me steps to giving me the answer but about half way through the steps I couldn't find the buttons they were telling me to find.
     The steps basically just told me to go to 1. Go to iTunes store 2. under "Quick Links" click Account. 3. it said under "iTunes in the Cloud" click "Hidden Purchase" but couldn't find that button.
Please help me I really don't want to re-purchase this whole album. Especially when I bought it using a gift card. If you can't find a solution, no biggy it's a complicated problem. Thank you.
And yes I like One Direction:)

If you go to the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage :
Does Music show as an option there, and does that album show ? If the album doesn't show then you can see if anything is hidden on your account by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919

    You must "Add" the tracks to your library. Select Add to Library from iTunes' File menu. Select your downloaded track(s) then click on the Open button in the file dialog. Once added to the library you can select and sync them in the Music configuration tab in the iTunes main window for your device.

  • How can I transfer downloaded music to iTunes?

    Since the last major itunes update, I am unable to transfer recently downloaded music not from an iTunes store.  Similarly, I am unable to download books to iBooks that were not purchased from the iTunes store.  
    Is this a deliberate attempt by to restrict the use of iTunes to only iTunes store purchases?
    Is there a remedy?

    This is the manual for the 4th gen shuffle
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_4thgen_User_Guide.pdf
    which is available through the manuals web page on Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/
    First, you should download and install the latest version of iTunes, from here
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/
    Information about using iTunes with your shuffle is in Chapter 3 (seems like that should be Chapter 1, but hey, I didn't write the manual ).
    You can come back with any specific questions, if the manual does not answer them...

    How do I access my music in iTunes without downloading? I want to hear the music not save it on multiple devices...

    Thanks, I tried that. It shows me only the songs i purchased and just gives me a snippet of the song. After much more reading and a phone call, it looks like Match will stream all the songs in my iTunes account without having to download them, but of course for a fee :( Thanks though.

  • How to download music into itunes

    Hii,
    can anyone tell me how to download music into itunes, the present version?

    Buy the music from iTunes and it downloads automatically.
    There is no other way to download content into iTunes.
    Importing music into iTunes is different. Is that maybe what you intended to ask?
    If so, go to File > Add File/Folder to iTunes.

  • I downloaded music from iTunes years ago, and haven't accessed it since. How do I get back into my old account? Thanks

    I downloaded music from iTunes years ago and haven't accessed it since. How do I get back into my account? Thanks.

    If you are logged in with the same account that you bought them with, and they are still in your country's store and you haven't moved countries since buying them, then they might show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app for redownloading, and the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes. If not all show there then check to see if you've hidden any of them : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
    If they are no longer in the store or you've moved countries then do you have a copy of them anywhere ? If you still have the iPod with them on then you can connect it to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to your iTunes library so that you can take a backup copy and sync them to your iPad.

    how do you download music from itunes on pc to itunes on mac

    If both computers are on the same network, you could just mount the Windows machine and drag and drop the songs from the PC to your Mac, and then add them to your Mac iTunes Library by importing.
    That's the simplest way I know...
