HT201272 This article doesn't say how to download past purchases from your computer/

They have conveniently left off instructions on how to download past purchases fron the iTunes store.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
??? That article has pretty clear instructions on how to redownload anything that is redownloadable (audiobooks are not, but that is the only thing). The istructions for the iTunes store on an iOS device are the third link down from the top, and from a computer the last link.
What exactly is missing?

How to download past purchases from old device to new one?

I had an iPod touch that I purchased music on, now I can't find the device but it doesn't matter because I have an iPhone now. But the problem is I can't sync my old iPod to the computer since I can't find it, but why does that matter when the music was purchased? If it was all purchased under my Apple ID it should still be in my library but its not. I'm missing songs that I've purchased before, instead of the cloud icon showing up next to it the price does so I'm assuming I have to repurchase , which is ridiculous. Is there anyway I could get the songs that I've purchased back & put them on my iPhone

Download past purchases - Apple Support

I can't download the app '12 days of christmas'. The app details say that you don't need to use a device and that you can "download the gifts from your computer". How do I do this?

I don't have the latest ipod touch and therefore can't download the app '12 days of christmas'. The app details say that you don't need to use a device and that you can "download the gifts from your computer". How do I do this, as I know its not possible to diretly use an app on a computer?
Thanks
Chris

Go to the Purchases Tab in the App Store and Accept the apps.
Then you'll be able to update them.

HT201272 I just updated to itunes 10.3 & iOS 6.1 and I cannot download a song to my library! I get the error "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on the computer with just one apple ID every 90 days..." WH

I just updated to itunes 10.3 & iOS 6.1 and I cannot download a song to my library! I get the error "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on the computer with just one apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 75 days." WHAT??
I've never had problems before - my husband and I have used the same library for years. My daughter also has her own Apple ID... are we going to have trouble with that, too? Actually we have 4 Apple IDs - somewhere around 8 Apple devices... this is a huge issue for us... HELP

Just to be clear - I just bought a new song and can't download it into the library because of this error message.

I have OS 3.1.3 how do I go about Downloading past purchases from the App Store?

You can download the current versions of the apps from the store e.g. via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading. But you may find that the current versions require higher iOS versions than you have on your iPod - in which case have you not got copies of the older versions of those apps on your computer's iTunes or on a backup ?

Hello missskye1,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Open iTunes. (You can download the latest version of iTunes.)
If you're not already signed in, choose Store > Sign In and type your Apple ID and password.
If you're in the iTunes Store, click the Library button, in the upper-right corner, to go to your library.
Make sure that you have "Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases" enabled in your iTunes preferences by going to iTunes > Preferences in the Store tab and clicking OK.
In your iTunes library, click the content type you wish to download using the content selector in the upper-left. Choose Music to download music, Movies to download movies, and so on.
Locate the item or title you wish to download.
Click the download icon to download that item.
Have a nice day,

When I tried to open itunes it told me becuase of this error I needed to reinstall Itunes, my question is do I need to uninstall first before installing and will I lose contents of my library if I uninstall?

Hey Dianna Walker,
Thanks for the question. Yes, you'll want to completely remove iTunes and all related components (it is important to remove all components in the order listed):

HT201272 there needs to be a how to download previous purchased ringtones, such a simple task has been made far to difficult for customers

there needs to be a how to download previous purchased ringtones, such a simple task has been made far to difficult for customers

Ringtones (and audiobooks) can't currently be re-downloaded from the store. If they are no longer on your device then have you not got them on your computer and/or on a backup ?

HT201272 How to download past purchase to iPhone

I am trying to figure out how to download an album To my iPhone that I purchased on my computer. When I go to the album in iTunes it says it was purchased but it is grayed out with no option to click on and hit download. Anyone know what I can do?

You have to have "Automatic Downloads" turned on on your iPhone and in iTunes on your computer to have downloads go to all your devices at the same time.
Or, just sync your iPhone with your computer and it should copy it to your iPhone, depending on what your music sync preferences are.

Trying to download past purchases from itunes to iphone. Not working so how do I delete these off my iphone to resync on a computer?

Hi,
I recently tried to download all of my past purchases in itunes to my iphone through the phone itself. I didn't have a computer available to simply sync the music. Some of the songs downloaded with no problem but the rest didn't and an error message comes up saying 'Unable to download songs' and when I click 'retry' nothing happens. These songs cannot be played on my phone and have a stop symbol beside the track title. My internet connection is fine so I don't understand what the problem is.
However, I do now have a computer with itunes that I could sync to my phone but every time I try to sync the songs they look the same on my iphone. I.e. the tracks still have the stop symbol beside them and I keep getting the download error messages. Does anyone know how to delete/cancel these downloads so that I can remove all the music from the iphone and simply sync it to itunes?
Any help would be very appreciated!

Go to Settings > Music and make sure "Show All Music" is off. Then only actually downloaded music will be displayed. With it on, you can see all your music stored in the Cloud as well. That music will always be in the Cloud (until such time as you download it) but it isn't present on your device.

How to download past purchases on new hard drive on Mac

My daughter's hard drive died last year (locked within Filevault from ages past) on her Desktop Mac. As a consequence, she has lost several years worth of purchased music from the iTunes store. Is there anyway to re-download her lost music without having to repurchase them all over again?

This seems to take me in a loop between how to authorize/deauthorize my computer and how to download purchases to other devices- not the original PC. She is older and more responsible now, but no back-ups were used at the time. I know (sigh). We seem to be able to get a listing of past ourchases from iTunes store for only the very recent time.
Arewe just out of luck and learning about back-ups the hard way with her tune library?

How to download MP3 songs from my computer harddrive to IPOD?

This a used IPOD that I just bought.
I restored it to its factory settings by using Itunes software.
Now I am trying to download some MP3 songs from my computer so that I can listen to them using the IPOD. I don't even know this is possible. I used Windows Explorer and droped the songs to IPOD 'drive'. IPOD says 'no music' and I can't play any of the songs using IPOD, but the songs are showing up in the Windows Expolorer. I can play them using Windows media player also. What am I doing wrong?

You need to use iTunes to put music on the iPod so that it can be played.
