ITunes lost all of my purchased music, will not allow me to re-download

I recently lost all of my purchased music, around 180 songs, out of the blue. This was not a hardware issue with the underlying block device, as the only music affected were recently purchased music.
I have tried multiple times to redownload my purchased items only to find that the download all button becomes gray and nothing is actually re-downloaded. I have tried this on Windows and on my Mac (which i was working on moving my music to) with the same results. At one point it actually re-downloaded one song however none of my other purchased items were downloaded and the "download all" button went grey.....
I am running the latest OSX Lion and the latest iTunes 10.5.2
Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Your iPod is designed to sync only one iTunes library at a time. If you try to sync it to a new library it will replace the contents that are currently on the iPod with the contents from the new library.
So what you'll need to do is copy all the content currently on your iPod to your new iTunes library first. Then you can go ahead and restore it to factory settings and start syncing it all back over to your iPod from scratch.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering different methods available for copying content from your iPod back to your PC.

Lost all my non purchased music

My old hard drive is no longer working so I have no back-up/ITunes. In trying to get to my ipod_control folder I've lost all my non-purchased music. Not sure how that happened. The non-purchased music is not visible. When looking at the IP Touch settings I see there there is only 58M out of 7G available which leads me to believe that the music is still on the IP Touch. Where do I go from here?
thanks in advance....

Several things: What do you mean by "trying to get to my ipod_control folder"? Are you talking about accessing the file system of the iPhone itself? FWIW, this is a very bad idea and can end up hosing your phone permanently.
There are several utilities out there that will allow you to (try) and extract the music from your phone. Google is your friend on this one. With the exception of purchased media, media sync is one way. Computer>iPhone. There is no sanctioned method of getting other media files off of the iPhone and onto a computer.
As far as another back-up scheme goes, the iPhone is NOT a backup device. You can't back up after the fact. Keeping a backup of the data on your computer, including your iTunes library, is the sane thing to do and basic common sense is to back up your data BEFORE you lose it, not afterward.

My iphone was restored to its original state and I lost all of my contacts and applications... any ideas how I can get it back??

Why did you restore without transferring your music to your computer?
If you are in the U.S., then you can use the newly released beta version of the cloud to get your music.

I'm new to Mac. I have an iPhone and a Mac Mini. My original iTunes was on a Windows computer that crashed. So, all of my iTunes Music and Movies are gone. How do I get the movies and music from my iPhone to the new Mac Mini?

If you still have the crashed Win computer, you may be able to recover your music and movies from the hard drive. If you have a friend with a hard drive USB connection kit and a PC, they should be able to help. Otherwise, check locally for computer services that might do that for you (I think Best Buy Geek Squad may be able to help). If the drive itself is in good shape, it shouldn't be too expensive.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

Think I lost all my non purchased music

I recently updated my iPod touch on a new computer that didn't have my iTunes on it. I downloaded the iTunes on this new computer thinking that when I plugged in my iPod the music would transfer to the new iTunes. My iPod did a 1hr update then asked if I wanted to back up my music on icloud or on my computer. I clicked "icloud". Then ALL my music (which was never purchased) deleted off my iPod and never transferred to my new computer. Is there any way to recover all this music?
Signed,
Super stressed...cause I'm getting married in a month and think I lost all my wedding music :(

The icloud backup does not include non-itunes purchased music. The backup to your computer does not include music at all.
This should all be on your computer. The ipod is not a storage/backup device. It simply mirrors the selected content from your computer. If the music is not on your computer, then it will not be on your ipod.
You need to copy everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

ITunes Folder 'damaged' lost all playlists and purchased music

Hey,
a couple of days ago I was on itunes and it compeltely randomly came up with an error message saying something along the lines of itunes folder damaged and it froze. When i rebooted itunes, all my playlists and purchased music had gone, along with all my podcasts etc
Also in my itunes folder there is a file that said 'itunes music - damaged'
I have all my music on an external harddrive but was just wondering how i can get it all back?
Mike

This article on how to re-create your library gives one way that is most likely to restore the most stuff. It also links to other methods if that doesn't work.

HT203167 My iPhone has lost some of my purchased music from iTunes. I have tried everything to get it back. I do not understand why

My iPhone 4S has lost some of my purchased from iTunes music. I have been unable to get it back. why

Hello mvanderkooi
You would have to wait the 90 days is up before associating it again with that computer. The article below will explain about link your Apple ID with iTunes and devices.

I purchased a new iphone (the 4) and the old phone was the 3. I used the 4 before syncing the data from the 3. Lost all my data that was stored in the 4! how can I get it back?

Hi all,
I purchased a iphone 4 and replaced my iphone 3. I started using the 4 before syncing the 3 because I didn't know how to do this. I just figured out how to sync and was successful however, I have now lost all data (list of to do's, calendar, photos (etc...) that went on the 4 before the sync. How can I get the data back?
Best!

YOur data maybe gone, unless you did a backup of your phone, which doesn't sound like you did.

HT203167 I restored all my purchases and I still have a song which I bought that is not coming back.How do I download it again free,since I paid for it before?

I have purchased a song that has been lost and cant get restored.The system restored all except this one song.How can I download it again for free,since I already purchased it.It shows up on the Itunes store as purchased and will not let me purchase again.What can I do?

Your iPod filesystem is corrupted, most likely due to a timeout by iTunes Sync failure.
Use DiskUtuility->First Aid-> Repair
When you connect the iPod Classic to a Mac,
Dont use the USB port on the Keyboard or any USB hub.
Disconnect all other USB devices
Dont browse Internet while syncing.
