HT203167 Music no longer showing in 'purchased'

Some songs on a previously purchased album are cutting off mid-song. I want to download the album again but it no longer shows in 'Store>Purchased'. I checked my purchase history and it shows there... odd?
I checked the forums and troubleshooted with the Cloud and that is not the issue. It seems as though the 'Purchased' section only lists recently purchased items... but nothing from +12 months past.
Any help is appreciated

Hi MeltedBlue,
Your Purchased items do not exist under Purchased in the Store on the sidebar. You have to click on iTunes Store (open the store), and then click on the Music tab. Then, on the right side, you will see Quick Links. Click on the Purchased there.
A screen willl come up with the same tabs you see in the Store - Music, Apps, Movies, etc.
Clic on the Music tab and then click on All Songs or on a specific Artist. You can also click on Not on This Computer, or on All at the top.
You will then see all of your Purchased songs. If they have a cloud next to them, you can re-download them - either individually, or by clicking Download All at the bottom.
If a cloud is not showing, it means the item is still in your iTunes Library, and needs to be deleted before you can re-download.
Cheers,

Complete My Album and older purchases no longer showing as purchased

I have noticed that on many of my older single song purchases, I do not have the option to complete the album (but on others I do so it isnt some account issue).
It seems that for whatever reason, some albums get re encoded and re uploaded. When that happens they delete the old version from the store but leave it on their servers and your previously purchased songs are still attached to the old no longer available for purchase version. They dont migrate your purchases over to their new replaced version (were talking same exact album here, not a newer extended version or something)
You can re download them from the cloud no problem, but when you view the album in the store, it doesnt show any purchased tracks. If you re purchase one of those tracks it now shows in the cloud that you own it twice. (the album are will usually have slightly different coloring from being rescanned) I downloaded them both and the size was a bit different, the newer one even had a slightly higher bitrate.
Just figured id post this here for anyone not able to complete an album and thinking there is an issue. You can test it by deleting the item from the cloud (it just hides it) then going into the itunes store account area and going to the manage your hidden tracks area. If you sort by songs and click the album name, it will either take you to the album page or tell you that this album is not available in the US store (or whatever region you bought it in). If it says the latter, then you purchases are from an older encoding of that album.
I have no idea why they do it like this, its pretty rediculous and leads to a bunch of issues like the endless threads by confused people not knowing why they cant complete an album. Its because the album you bought a song from isnt for sale anymore, even though one with the same name and songs is.

My iPad no longer shows previous purchases in the App Store

I recently moved from Australia to the US, have synced changed my store location too and since then I can no longer access previously purchased apps.
The ones I have installed are fine and working, however all the purchase history has disappeared, is there anyway to get this back?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers

If you purchased the apps using the account from Austraila, you would have to change back to that store and be signed into whatever ID you were using in Australia in order to see your purchased apps.
Have you tried changing the store back to the Australian Store and then look in the purchased tab of the App Store?
Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID
Tap your ID
Tap View Apple ID
Enter your password
Go to country/region in the popup window to change the store

Purchased music no longer listed as "Purchased"

Hello,
I moved my music library from my internal iMac HD to an external HD. I had to reassign the music library link in the properties and add the music files back into iTunes by selecting "add to library" from the File menu. Now, even though I have all of my music in my library, all the music I purchased from the iTunes Store does not show in the "Purchased" folder under "Store" in iTunes.
Does anyone know how I can get iTunes to recognize the music I purchased from the iTunes Store again?
Thanks.

I had a similar situation. My R/X First I purchased an iTunes song. Then the "Purchase" folder was automatically created under the Store in iTunes. Next I opened my music library and sorted the songs by the column named "Kind". Then I selected and highlighted all the songs that were shown as "Purchased AAC" and "Protected AAC". Then I dragged and dropped the files into the Purchase folder. Hope that works.

I have an iphone 6 with the most recent iOS. iTunes Match is on. Music app only showing songs purchased on iTunes and no playlists are displayed. Just happened when updating iTunes Match. Solutons?

I have an iPhone 6 with 64 GB of memory. I have iTunes Match turned on my account and on the phone. Suddenly, the Music app is only displaying music purchased directly from iTunes and no playlists are displayed. This occurred after updating iTunes Match on my PC; when new music did not appear, I turned off iTunes Match off/on the PC then did the same on iPhone 6. It looks like iTunes Match is trying to do a full download to the phone but it never completes. Ideas?

Hi Moonage Daydreamer01,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues on your iPhone. If you continue to have issues with iTunes Match, you may find the information and troublehshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

Since updating to iTunes 11 music no longer shows up in Aperture Slideshows

Since updating to iTunes 11 I can no longer see iTunes music in the Aperture browser for slideshows, it also seems that import of audio doesn't work.

Do you see iTunes in other applications - Pages, iMovie? If not, you may need to rebuild your iTunes library, see:http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
For me, iTunes '11 works very well with Aperture 3.4.3.

Digital Copy no longer showing in purchased movies

Hello,
Last September I redeemed the Digital Copy code that came with the bluray of Star Trek: Into Darkness. The movie downloaded and was also available on all of my devices via iCloud. It has been in my purchased movie section of iTunes until recently, when it just disappeared. Other movies I have redeemed via Digital Copy are still showing up. I have been in touch with iTunes Store support chat and they said that they do not support Digital Copy movies even after they have been redeemed (obviously that was very surprising to me since it is technically an iTunes purchase, but just prepaid). Does anyone have any ideas how I can restore this Digital Copy movie to my account?
Thanks.

It's possible that the distributor isn't allowing redownloading for that film - from iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability :
1Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud.
You can view the purchase history on your account (which should show the film if was redeemed on that account, my digital redemptions show on mine) by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, on your account's screen there will be a 'Purchase History' section with a 'see all' link to its right - unfortunately it's not searchable.

IPod's music library only shows items purchased from iTunes store?

I'm really frustrated because I've only had this iPod since Christmas and it's already giving me grief.
My iPod is synced with 918 songs:
However, my music library on the device itself only displays 65, as seen here:
These songs are ones I've purchased from the iTunes store. All other songs on the device have to be manually searched for from the Home screen, and if you ask me this is kind of ridiculous. It'd be nice if, y'know, I could use my iPod to actually listen to my songs with ease, as is its purpose in the first place??
I've resynched numerous times and reset it.
What the heck am I doing wrong?
Cheers in advance.

By the way... ALL music files back to 2004 still play fine on iTunes on the PC...

I purchased a TV Series from the Store previously (Order no. shows up in my purchase history). The series is still being sold on the Store, but no longer shows as 'purchased' and I am unable to download onto any Apple device. Any suggestions?

Is there anything I can do to retrieve the files?
Apple Support simply emails me an article on retrieving lost media. The issue is that the itunes Store contradicts my Library claiming that I haven't previously purchased the item

It turns out I'd manged to unwittingly 'hide' the series...
Easily fixed by following http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 courtesy of King_Penguin
Sd series not found in purchased section or available to download from origional series page.
Still no idea how I hid it in the first place!!!

Older music/TV shows & videos purchased from iTunes store no longer work on PC (iTunes only)

Hi,
I am having trouble with iTunes on my Win PC and would like some help. It clearly appears to be a software or configuration issue. Essentially all my older music videos and TV shows all purchase from the iTunes store (anything older than 2012) simply will not play with iTunes (but will play with all other Win apps). Here are the details:
1) Running new PC with Win 7 ultimate
2) All media files in one location (iTunes folder) all new tunes and videos are stored there
3) I am running iTunes v10
4) Newly purchased music videos work - older ones (from 2011-2006) no longer play. Same with newly purchased TV shows but not older ones.
5) When file is selected in iTunes it simply does not play them (no crash, no sound, nothing) - itunes is still active and you can select other music, etc.
6) Videos play in Win player and any other windows app applied to them (sourced directly from iTunes to Explorer)
7) Problem did not exist in much earlier version of iTunes (or I would not have purchased them, duh)
8) Problem existed in last few versions of iTunes
9) Problem existing on last PC as well as this new one
9) ALL videos STILL work fine on my ipad and ipods - nothing wrong with those files themselves
10) I have searched online and tried: control panel selections with Quicktime (3D video setting), uninstalling itunes several times, uninstalling quicktime, etc.
11) All tests pass with iTunes diagnostic
Please help if you can! Thanks.
best, AHC99

Can no longer play iTunes-purchased TV shows in QuickTime Pro 7

Had to reformat hard drive due to nasty virus/spyware I couldn't locate and delete (AVG, AOL spyware protector, SpyBot Resident, Kerio Firewall, Windows Firewall all failed to stop it from entering and those plus AdAware all could not get rid of it). Upon redownloading and installing software (iTunes with QuickTime) I can no longer play the TV shows I purchased at iTunes. Is it because I had to copy them to another drive/disk . . . and then copy them back to my hard drive? I've scanned the files with AVG, SpyBot, and AdAware and came up clean. I've changed the file association from iTunes to QuickTime and from m4v to mpg or something . . . and back again.
With every change and attempt I get a pink hazy video, but when I fiddle with QuickTime preferences and save the defaults that it keeps automatically resetting itself to, I can see clear video . . . until I reopen the file.
Help! I am tearing my hair out. I am not tech savvy and cannot find a solution on the discussion boards or elsewhere.
Thanx bunches.
Windows XP

Nevermind, I changed the metadata of the video file to "music video" instead of "TV show" and I am now able to add it to a playlist X amount of times under the video app.

Since an update about a month ago, iTunes no longer shows which songs on an album I've previously purchased. Anyone know why?

Somce an update about a month ago, iTunes no longer shows which songs on a particular album I've previously purchased. Does anyone know why? For example, I purchase a number os songs fro Glee individually. When a new compilation album comes out, iTunes used to indicate which ones I've already purchased. Now it doesn't.

you could use this script:
Track Down Purchases
This script will examine each track in a selection of tracks or a selected playlist to determine if it was purchased from the iTunes Store and then copies it to a discrete playlist named for the person who purchased it, eg: "Steve Ballmer's Purchased Music". Recognizes song, video, and audiobook purchases. Purchaser information is gleaned by examining the track's file, which, depending on file location and access speed, can take as long a second per track.

Why do music videos no longer show up properly?

After updating to OS5 I notice that music videos no longer show up properly.
I have most of mine in playlists, and it show the songs, but only plays the music, not the video?
When I view them in 'Videos' I have no option to sort or show them in a different way!
Considering the iPad is probably more slanted toward movie content, the lack of features for music videos is very disapointing

I think this has always been a lacking feature in the iPad videos app but now it is even worse as you can't go into the music app, context navigate to the video you want and play the music video. It was irritating in the past as it took you back to the lack luster videos app with no sorting or context other than the video tile navigation, now it is TOTALLY un functional.
APPLE DEVOLPMENT please use the video app with 200+ music videos and see how you like it! Or does anyone know of a replacement or more advanced app that will allow a better browse and play interface. Apple's is so basic that it is 'still' just painful!
Music video playlist and shuffle on the iPad would also be nice but sort would be awesome!
Thanks for any info from anyone on this topic that I have long hopped to be resolved but it is going backward and we are loosing features.
The new music interface isn't any better in my opinion either, play buttons at the top so your hand has to be over the top of the screen, store button at the bottom left vs top right as it would be more intuitive like other app purchase button positioning.
Anyone know how to make music videos sort better on the iPad (by artist would be awesome)

Purchased music no longer available for redownload

I looked at my iTunes cloud purchases today and noticed that 1 full album was missing, and several others were missing many of the tracks in the albums. All of the albums are available for purchase on iTunes, but are not available for redownload on my account. I checked both iTunes with no music loaded and Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases enable ont theStore tab, AND on my iPhone where it lists the exact same music missing from my account. Complete album missing is Karmakanic - In a Perfect World. My incomplete albums are Hawkwind - Hawkwind, David Bowie - Hunky Dory, Van Der Graaf Generator - H to He Won Am the Only One, and most of my Gentle Giant albums. I do not understand why I am buying music from iTunes if it is just going to disappear from my account. This is NOT AN ISSUE ON MY END. The music is not available for redownload, but is available for purchase. I am forced to use Google Play to keep my music in the cloud since iTunes is not dependable.

The "missing" items are no longer available for re-download from your purchase history because for whatever reason the copyright holder of the music removed the original items you purchased from the iTunes Store and replaced them. This can happen in the case of a remastered album, for example. Bear in mind that Apple does not own the copyrights to the content it sells on the iTunes Store. If the copyright holder tells Apple to remove an item you've purchased from the store and replace it with a "new" or "improved" version Apple must do so. The result is the item will not longer be available to re-download from your purchase history.
It is your responsiblity to keep and maintain backups for all of your iTunes Store purchases, as iTunes in the Cloud is not a backup service.
