HT1977 Purchased audiobooks not showing in itunes account

I have recently purchased 5 audiobooks in iTunes on my work laptop and they are not showing up on my iPhone nor my iPad. I'm logged in to my iTunes account on my laptop so, I would assume what I purchase within my account, should show up in my account so I dont have to purchase the same items twice.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue? And living outside of the US shouldnt be reason why it doesnt allow me to sync through my account - there should be no reason why anything shouldnt work the same no matter where one lives on God's green earth!

Start by choosing Store> Check For Available Downloads in iTunes. It should see the audiobooks, which should appear in the Books dropdown menu. If that works, you should then connect your iPad or iPhone to your computer. Open the device, and click on "Books". Then select "Sync Audiobooks". If this completes. and the audiobooks sync to your device, they should then be in the Music app, under More (...) > Audiobooks.
You may need to either close and re-open the Music app, or possibly restart your iPhone or iPad to get them to show up.
Do you have iTunes Match, by chance?

Music on ipod touch not showing in itunes account

some music on my ipod touch does not show in itunes. My computer has been backed up and do not know how to get old items back on itunes

Have you looked here:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

My MacBook Pro iTunes movie purchase is not showing in iTunes store movie purchases nor does it show on my iPad or Apple TV. Can someone please help me with a solution? Thanks.

First of all, I live in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Sometimes, I use a VPN to search on the web here. I purchased Toy Story 3 on my MacBook Pro 2011 OS/X - Lion through iTunes. I initially had trouble downloading it which may be due to being on and off the VPN but after a while it finally downloaded and shows up in my iTunes library on my MacBook.
Under my Apple ID account (which is the only Apple ID account I have), I look under purchase history and it shows that I paid for Toy Story which is where I got my Order # from. But if you go to the iTunes Store then to the Quick Links then click on Purchased, under all my Movies, it does NOT show Toy Story 3 as one of my movies.
Now when I go to my iPad (3rd gen.), Toy Story 3 does not show up under purchased movies (all or not on my iPad). It does not show up on my Apple TV as well. If I want to have Toy Story 3 on my iPad or Apple TV, then it says I have to purchase it again.
I have searched for help via Apple support communities but so far none of their solutions have worked for me. I have tried logging off iTunes & App Store on iPad and also shutting down the iPad. I also made sure that under iTunes Preferences>Store that iTunes in the Clouds purchases is checked. Can someone please help me with this? Your consideration is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply.
I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago. I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam. I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase.
Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions. Could you please explain?
I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items.

HT201272 Purchased items not showing in iTunes on iPad

Anyone having problems seeing their previous purchases in iOS 6? I just tried to download some previously purchased music to my iPad (new iPad/3), and when I click on the purchased tab, it is blank. I did not encounter any issues with adding previously purchased music and tv shows to my iPad while using iOS 5.

Since I upgraded to the last iTunes Version (10.7(21) and iOS Version (6.0(10A403) I am experiencing issues with my iPhone 4S and iTunes.
First of I discoverd / ran into the issues of the App Store after install iOS 6 on my iPhone:
When opening the App Store (App) on my iPhone, in the menu bar at the bottom of the screen and selecting the Genius function, the results try and load for about 7 seconds and finally the App Store just Crashes and I have to restart this process again, but results in the same error. This is a continuous process.
When opening the App Store (App) on my iPhone, in the menu bar at the bottom of the screen and selecting the Updates function, then selecting (Previous) Purchases; my iPhone states: ✳ Loading... and this goes on and on and... and finally after about 10 minutes I receive the message: Connetion to iTunes Store Failed. In other words my iPhone can never recall or access my previously bought Apps from the iTunes Store. The only way to access them is to Search or Find them directly in the App Store but you then need to know the name of the App you want.
I have contacted Apple Support and together we have tried several things but nothing seemd to work for me. We also tried to access the App Store and purchases menu directly from the iTunes store running on my iMac and found that it acted in a failry simular manner, only running on my iMac after about 15 minutes I finally got results. It seems like it just needs time to access / find / locate all my previously bought apps. The bug (to me) seemd to be the iTunes Store account and not the iPhone itself. I could test this myself because I have 2 itunes accounts at my disposal. Once I tried my second account (both on my iMac and on my iPhone, I didn't encounter any problem whatsoever. The first (major) account;
I have bought - downloaded approximately over 250 songs
I have bought - downloaded approximately over 3600 apps
The second account (US iTunes Store)
I have bought - 10 apps
I am now wondering if Apple is having trouble accessing a large amount of information to display in iTunes store on my account or are they just having trouble with a faulty / bugy engine.
To further test my hunches; I accessed four other iTunes Accounts of friends and family both on my iMac and iPhone iTunes Stores and all four had as little as 300 Apps that had been bought in Apple's iTunes Stores. Our findings were that it didn't matter how many purchases are on your account because 2 of the tested accounts had the same issue and the other 2 accounts were working just fine.
We also tested to see if it would make a difference if we accessed the stores either from a mobile network (being 3G connection) and Wifi network connection, but this made no difference whatsoever.
I guess this means back to the drawing board.
I am wondering if other people have tested this and or are having the same or simular issues...
Would be great to get some feedback on this.
Many thanks in advance.
Best Reagds,
Carl.

Purchased item not showing in iTunes

I purchased a song on iTunes the other day and it's not showing in my iTunes now. I've searched by title, artist, genre, I've tried looking in recently purchased items and it's not there. It shows in my purchase history and if I try to download it again I'm told I've already downloaded and would I like to "download it again?" Any ideas?

Either (1) it did not download in the first place, or (2) it did download but then got deleted, moved, or renamed. If you have done enough searching to determine that it is not number 2, then use the Contact page to report to Apple that it did not download correctly. They will arrange a replacement or refund.

Purchased Audiobooks not showing up

Music is working fine along with Music Videos, but when I recently purchased an audiobook and click on audiobooks in itunes it shows up. I synced and then went into my ipod on itunes and it showed up. but when I disconnect and try to find the book under audiobooks it doesnt show up. I can find it with all myother songs but it would be nice if it showed up under audiobooks since the menu is there. What am I doing wrong?

I too have this problem since the latest iTunes upgrade. In iTunes itself the audio books are displayed in the correct list. The books are transferred to my iPod but not in the Audiobooks list.
Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks

My purchased audiobooks not showing in my music app on the ios 6

I am having a small problem, I recently installed the new ios 6 and last night I sync my iphone 4s and when I unplugged it i noticed my audiobook wasn't there. I went to the imusic app at the bottom of the phone and I can['t find the audiobook tab. I tried searching for the audiobook and couldn't find it within my music list. I plugged the iphone again, and the audiobook shows that it is sync to the phone. So for some reason it's not appearing in my imusic app. Please help!

Media was moved via external hard disk, and I think I moved the iTunes Media folder after consolidating it.

Purchased song not showing in itunes library

Earlier today I purchased several songs today, and one of the songs that I bought was showing up under purchased playlist in my library, but not actually in my library if that makes sense. It was also showing up in the purchased section in the itunes store. I tried deleting the song and hopefully being able to redownload it but it was still showing up as if it was in my library. I even tried hiding the purchase and then unhiding it but when I did that it still showed up in the purchased section as if it was in my library. Is there a way to change this?

Hello toi_va,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are seeing or describing. If you are having issues finding this particular song, even after redownloading, you may find the information and steps outlined in the following article helpful:

Purchased credits not showing up in account

Hi,
Last week I've purchased Skype credits, that have still not shown up in my account. There is a notification that I have purchased the credits on my home page (see screenshot 1) but not in my purchase history (see screenshot 2). I did get a confirmation of payment after the transaction, can you help me figure out where the credits are hiding?
Thanks

Hi Norman,
Thanks for your answer. But as mentioned, in my homepage of Skype I have this notification for a confirmation of purchase on 17April (which has been paid...). So I don't see why it doesn't show in the purchase history nor in the balance of my account?
"Skype Home
It's now ready for you to use. This transaction will appear as "Skype" on your account statement.
So now what?
You should be able to start using your purchase immediately. However, in some cases, you may have to wait up to an hour for it to be activated. If you're still having problems, visit our help section.
Here are your purchase details:
• Skype Name: [Removed for privacy]
• Product name: Skype Credit purchase of €10, Signup for auto-recharge
• Total amount: EUR10.00
• Transaction date: Apr 17, 2015
• Order number: [removed for privacy]
• Order status: Delivered
See the Terms of Use for this order in your purchase history. "

Valérie

Purchased apps not showing in iTunes?

I got a new laptop yesterday and all my music and movies transfered into itunes when I signed in, but my apps did not. They did not get removed off my iPhone. I can't load any new apps on my iPhone because when I go to the apps tab in iTunes, the only way to load it onto my phone is to check off apps and if I do that all my previous apps on my phone will get removed. How do I get my apps into iTunes without removing them from my phone and repurchasing them?

With iphone connected, click File>Transfer Purchases
This should transfer all apps from iphone to computer.

Audiobooks not showing in iTunes on iPhone 3GS

I've always downloaded audiobooks from the library to my iPhone 3GS and they've always showed up in iTunes under audiobooks. The book is listed under books on my iPhone in iTunes on my PC. It may be a coincidence, but since I upgraded to IOS 5 they no longer show up in iTunes on the phone. I have to search iPhone to list the book and then I can play it from there. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

Hey there sjohjaba!
It seems like there might be two issues going on here, so I want to address them individually. The first issue is an issue with grouping your songs together, and can be addressed by an article that explains how songs get grouped separately in iTunes sometimes, even though they might be by the same artist or in the same album. That article can be found right here:
Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1468
Next is the issue of missing songs in your iTunes library. Frequently, this will happen when you have transferred your library from another computer, but have missed a step in transferring all of the content in that library. We have another article that can fully explain the steps to transfer your whole library successfully through multiple avenues, and that article can be found here:
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
One of the key things to do before you transfer would be to make sure that you consolidate the library on your PC before you move it over to your Mac. Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

Purchased movies not showing in iTunes for Mac

I'm using the same apple ID on several devices, and am able to access all purchased movies on my Apple TV, iPhone, and iPad. When using iTunes on my Mac, only 25 of the 50 purchased movies viewable elsewhere are accessible. I've tried accessing the missing items through the iTunes store, hoping that they'd be available for download, but am only given the option to purchase them again. Does anyone else have this problem and/or know how to remedy it? I've already tried deauthorizing/reauthorizing, and logging in and out. It has been happening for a while, so I don't think that it is something that was caused by a recent software update.
Thank you for any help that you can provide.

I feel dumb. Solved it for myself. In case anyone else has this issue, instead of looking at purchased items from within your library, go to the iTunes store home page, and select purchased from the menu on the right. Then there will be a tab for "not in my library." This is where your purchased items that haven't been downloaded to your computer reside.
