HT201272 I can't re-download a previous purchase that I deleted from my library.

Several songs I bought did not fully download. I deleted them from my itunes library. When I go to purchases to try and re-download them I can not. I can only play them. And they play for the same, shortened, incomplete download duration that I originally got them at. When I go to the itunes store and play the preview on these "Songs" they only play for the shortened, incomplete download duration of a few seconds also. They are Lewis Black, bits 6 and 7 from his "Rules of Engagement" album. When I try to "report a problem" with these songs, the itunes system tells me to go to "recent purchases" and re-download them. But I can not, when I go to recent purchases I can not re-download them, I can only play them. And they play for the shortened, partial download duration... itunes support on the phone is off, it is after hours. So I keep trying to figure out how to re-download them.

How are you trying to redownload them e.g. you are using the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes :
If you are in a country where music can be redownloaded then that should let you redownload them from the store.
If they redownload in the same shortened state then you can contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

HT201272 How do I re download an inapp purchase that was deleted

How do I re download an in app purchase after the app was accidentally deleted I was able to download the app again but the in app purchase didn't download again

It's not currently possible to re-download audiobooks, you will need to re-sync them from your computer's iTunes. If you don't have them on your computer nor on a backup, then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download (though there is no guarantee that they will) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

How can I fine a photo on icloud that is deleted from my camera roll

How can I find a photo on icloud that is deleted from my camera roll

All photos captured or saved with the iPhone are stored in the Camera Roll which cannot be changed.
You can create an album to place photos in that are in the Camera Roll which does not duplicate the photo. It creates a pointer to the original photo stored in the Camera Roll. If the original is deleted from the Camera Roll, it will be removed from the album as well.
Import the photos from the Camera Roll with your computer as with any other digital camera followed by deleting the photos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete. Create an album or albums for the imported photos on your computer followed by transferring the albums from your computer via the iTunes sync process which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

HT201272 I'm having trouble downloading a previously purchase song to my iCloud so I can access it from another device. The iCloud download button is not there. Help?

I'm having trouble downloading a previously purchase song to my iCloud so I can access it from another device. The iCloud download button is not there. Help?

I agree. I don't rely on iCloud as a backup, that is what I have my portable hard drive for. Its 500 GB so I can hold my entire iTunes library several times over on it. I have all my movies on my hard drive, but somehow "The Mist" got deleted off of my hard drive, so I figured "Well, the option to redownload an already purchased movie is available through iCloud, I'll just do that!"
And permissions and download availability have nothing to do with it, the movie's still there, it still allows me to redownload it. The only problem is when I click download, I get that message.
And nobody else uses my computer, but I do have multiple accounts authorized on it. Even still though, I am attepmpting to download it through the account I purchased it under. :/

I'm trying to download a previously purchased audiobook from the cloud, however it only shows me music and none of the multiple audiobooks I've purchased!? Anyone with this same or similar issue?

You cannot redownload audiobooks at all.
It is your responsibility to backup your purchases, and all other content for that matter.

Can't re-download a previously purchased item that didn't properly download

I recently used a free code YLHKTEW39RPY to get a Warped Tour Sampler. The order number was MGJG03FQLJ and it was on 6/27/09. The Invoice number was 212002416301. It came with 10 songs, but only 2 of them even downloaded. I tried "checking for purchases" to see if they would re-download but iTunes tells me that all avaiable purchases are downloaded, yet 8 of the songs don't show up in my library. I went into my purchase history and reported a problem but that didn't seem to do anything. How do I get the other 8 songs to download?

Welcome to AD!
Reporting via Purchase Histroy doesn't always work. Also, if you've reported a porblem once, you can't do it again on the same item if you get no reply.
Try this page, instead:

Make sure any reply isn't going to a spam/junk folder, and give them 48 hours.

HT201272 I'm unable to download my previous purchases.

Hi All,
I noticed i have some missing songs in my iTunes library on my PC after updating the other night, so after uninstalling the older version of iTunes 10.5.3.3 (I had been overseas for a few months and wasn't around to update) and then reinstalling with the latest updated version - 10.6.3 as instructed, i am still missing those files. So i then followed the advice about using the new 'purchsed' tab and i can access the area no trouble and clearly see all my missing songs listed BUT i am unable to download them as the download tab is greyed out and doesn't highlight. All my purchased files are like that. They were also like that for the older version of iTunes i was using a few hours ago. I'm logged in. My PC is authorised. All the purchased songs/files are listed. They are all still available on iTunes. I have the latest version of iTunes. Have i missed something totally? I'm rather new to this all so i may have missed an extremely basic step.
Please and thank you.
Oh and one more thing, i wasn't able to send in a support request as iTunes didn't have any record of me even though i was logged in and it was saying hello to me in the top right corner as well as allowing me to purchase more songs. I'm quite sure it isn't me that is causing the problem.

Thank you so much.
I did exactly as you stated and had no troubles whatsoever. Everything is now back to normal and as it should be.

HT201272 How can I re-download in app purchases? I made a purchase I had to restore my Ipad and now they are lost.

How can I reload or download again in app purchases? I purchased in app upgrades in Amplitube. I am not sure if it is relasted but right after that I noticed problems with my Ipad and restored the Ipad to factory settings. Now the in-app purchaes are gone. Any suggestions?

You'll can try to sign in with the ID they were purchased under in Settings > iTunes and App store and downlaod them. If not, you'll have to purchase them under the new ID.

The article from which you came provides step-by-step instructions on re-downloading purchases. Where in those instructions are you encountering difficulty?

HT201272 iTunes not allowing me to re-download a previous purchase. :(

How can I re-download a previous purchase if I have lost it, and a) iTunes is greying out the "Download" button and b) "Transfer from iPod" is not working? None of Apple Support's answers actually work!

"I found in another discussion a claim that Apple only lets you download a purchase once."
Not true at all. Your purchases ( all that are available) are in icloud, You can get them as often as you like.
"But on the page you linked to, it seems to specify that it is possible to download multiple times."
Yes. This is completely true. You can donwload them as many times as you like.
"Seems to be at the best bad usability, and at the worst intentionally misleading."
Nothing misleading at all.
