A few years ago I bought music from Itunes. Recently I deactivated all computers in order to add a new computer. Most of the music I purchased came through, but I am still missing about 30% of it. How can I download all the music I have purchased from

Might have luck with that here > Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer on the iTunes Store.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID that was used for the original purchases.

I've bought music from iTunes and but it doesn't appear in music app.

I've bought music from iTunes and downloaded it but it doesn't appear in music app. Also, music I sync from computer to iPhone doesn't show up in music either? Please help!!
The device is an iphone 5 and its got all the latest software downloads etc.

Apparently my first response was off in left field. The DVD player has its own code. My recommendation is to change the code when it asks. It is possible that the disks that play correctly are region-free and the ones that don't have a region code. If this does not work, you still have four more changes available; you won't be stuck with the new code.

HT201272 Why can't I download my already bought music from iTunes to my phone when it is the same apple I'd but a different device

I bought my music on iTunes and downloaded it with my other iPod. I know how a phone and when I download the music from the already purchased area it states that I can't download it anymore because I have I wait 90 days to download

Was that new device used with a different AppleID recently?
iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 - In connection with, "When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID." "Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days." - Additionally instructions for "Removing an associated device or computer from an Apple ID"

How can I get ALL my music from iPod to iPad? Not only purchased but also cd rips?

I have almost all my listening music on my 30GB iPod. How can I put most of it also on my iPad - to include both purchased AND cd-ripped music?

I'm going to assume you have all this music conveniently stored in iTunes? If the answer is yes, you connect your iPad to your computer and sync the music from your Music tab to your iPad.

Audiobook has been synched from computer to iPad but not showing up on iPad anywhere

Why are audiobooks treated completely differently as a song ?
When i download a song from iTunes it goes right into my iTunes library.
How come the same thing doesn't happen when i purchase an audiobook ?!?!?!?
Went on a road trip with just my iPhone and iPad Air.
For the trip home, i wanted to listen to an AudioBook.
Went into iTunes, bought and successfully downloaded an AudioBook.
Where did / does it go ?
I can't find it - a nice informative popup would be helpful.
2 days later and i still can't find it - altho my credit card has been charged for it.
It didn't appear in my Music app.
No new AudioBook tab appeared anywhere.
No new Genre appeared in my music area.
Went back to iTunes - AudioBooks - looked at the AudioBooks - said I already downloaded it !?!?!
So the next day, an 8 hour trip without listening to the AudioBook was a strike against Apple.
Also got an audible email ping letting me know that I was now being charged for this invisible book.
Got home, have been looking online for an answer, still nothing that's worked !!
Hooked up my iPad to my computer to try and manually synch things up.
Went into iTunes, selected my iPad device and looked at the Books section.
It lists my AudioBook but there is only a dotted outline icon around it.
On computer, went back into iTunes, looked for Recent Purchases - saw my audiobook and downloaded it onto my computer.
Then I synch'd my iPad with my computer and saw it move the AudioBook onto my iPad.
Now i thought I finally had it.
In iTunes, still on my computer, i went to my iPad device tab, went to the "On This iPad" tab, clicked Books and voila - i see that my purchased AudioBook is now listed on my iPad.
Same question - WHERE IS IT ON THE iPAD ?!?!?!?
On my iPad - it isn't showing up in iBooks [since it wasn't an iBooks purchase I'm not surprised but i'm annoyed so am looking anywhere].
It isn't showing up on the desktop.
It isn't showing up in iTunes.
And it isn't showing in the Music App.
I could've gone to a bookstore, purchased it and read it in the amount of time i'm spending trying to find an answer.
Pretty annoyed by this experience.
According to my laptop version of iTunes, on the iPad tab, the audiobook exists on my iPad - how do i finally get to listen to it on my iPad, where is it ?

I only have 1 Apple ID and all my devices know about each other.

My calendar events transfer during sync from iPhone to iPad but not vice versa.

When I try to sync my calendars all of the entries on my iPhone appear (even the duplicates) on my iPad but my entries on the iPad do not transfer to my iPhone. I have tried switching the order they sync in (iPhone after iPad or iPad and then iPhone) but no changes. I have the "All Calendars" box checked on my iTunes. Any suggestions?

I assume you are syncing cal's through iTunes. While I am not sure how to solve your problem, I'd recommend using Google Exchange to sync your contacts. It works in real time and uses your gmail credentials to do so.

Playlist created in iPad but not showing on iPhone?

I have had iTunes Match for couple years now and no issues till today -- purchased a new tune on iPad and then created a new playlist with new song and others already purchased - the new song shows up on iPhone, but not the newly created playlist ? It is only on my iPad where I created it ??

Events sync via iCloud from iPhone to iPad but not vice versa.

I just purchased an iPad 3 and have an iPhone 4s. In calendar, I can enter a date event on my phone and it will sync to the calendar on my iPad, however, if I enter a date event in calendar on iPad, it does not sync via iCloud to my iPhone. I have checked and made sure all of my stuff in settings is syncing via the cloud. Just cannot figure this out. I also made sure that the cloud is linked to same account only on both devices. Any help is appreciated.
