I can't view my iTunes purchases!!!

I recently attempted to sync iPad 2 to my iMac.  When I started the sync, it seemed like the operation was taking longer than it should, so stopped iTunes, disconnected the iPad and restarted the Mac.   When I reconnected my iPad,  all of the data was still there, but I kept getting a "library error -56" on the Mac and the iTunes interface showed all of my music, videos, apps, etc. as "other" and had a solid yellow line.  I looked online at several post on the error and it sounded like I had a permissions error on the harddrive.  I ran the disk utility to repair this and tried to sync everything again.   Still no fix.  I decided to delete the library files and start from scratch.  Now everything is resynced, but some of my purchases are missing.  When I access the iTunes app on the iPad,  the app freezes when I try to view my purchases.  If I go to the iTunes store and try to redownload the purchases i get an error saying "you have already purchased this item".  The songs are no where to be found in my library.  My iPad is the only device I have that  I have synced my library to.  I have reset the device twice by holding down the power button and the access button at the same time.   I have also tried wiping the iPad clean by reseting and erasing everything.  Still not working.
Please help.  Apple store employees were no help.

In iTunes prefs>Store - is the Store check box unchecked?
Did you repair pemissions with Disk Utility?

  • Can I access an iTunes purchase on a pc on another devices, on my iPad by logging into my iTunes account?

    Can I access an iTunes purchase made on a pc....on another device(iPad) ?

    Tv show, music can be seen under the purchased section in the iPad itunes app.
    If connected to wifi you can download them, music can also be downloaded on 3G.
    Apps can be seen under purchased in the app store and downloaded.
    Movies cannot be accessed due to licensing restrictions.

  • How can I transfer all iTunes purchases from one apple id to another

    How can I transfer all iTunes purchases from one apple id to another?

    Don't agree. I have two accounts, one for work which I set up years ago and bought a few tracks. I've recently bought iPhone and iPad and created a home ID and wanted to transfer the old purchaces. Everyone says it can't be done, but I've done it.
    1. on the iPhone/iPad change your "store" Apple ID to the one you want ot transfer from.
    2. go into iTune on the device and download the purchaces.
    3. on you PC/Mac change the iTunes login to the same as the device's ID
    4. sync your device
    5. change both ID's back and the purchaces stay on both iTunes and your device.
    Delmar,
    The procedure you describe is putting content from two different IDs into a single library, which can readily be done.
    However, each item of purchased content will still be tied to the ID from which it was originally purchased, and they will be treated separately for purposes of Cloud, Match, Purchase History, etc.

  • How can I get my itunes purchases to play on any mp3 player?

    I can't get my itunes purchases to play on my other mp3 players.  I don't want to download these programs people suggest on the internet.
    And really, I shouldn't have to. If I've already paid for the music, why can't I put it on the device I choose?  There must be a way. Any help? BTW, I'm using Windows Vista, (yuk)

    You can put the music on any device you choose, as long as the device can play the format. Purchases from the iTunes Store are in industry-standard AAC format. If you want to use them on a player that can only handle MP3, you need to convert the tracks. See:

  • Windows crashed....can I redownload previous itunes purchases?

    My computer OS crashed this week and I lost nearly everything. I have lost my itunes library. Is there any way that I can redownload my previous itunes purchases?
    I've looked in my account at the itunes store and haven't been able to find information on this topic.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    The policy on lost songs is that you have to pay to download them again:
    "Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage."
    You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download however they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on any of the links on this page you'll find a space at the bottom to email your query: iTMS Customer Service

  • HT204088 How can i cancel an itune purchase?

    How can i cancel an itune purchase made by mistake?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Apple's policy on sales of digital content is that all sales are final. If however you wish to appeal to Apple, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History on your computer.
    Currently, if your purchase happens to be your most recent purchase you will not be redirected to the report form, in this case use the report a problem option from the invoice that was emailed to you.

  • How can I move my itunes purchases to a different computer?

    How can I move all of my itune purchases on my old computer to my new computer?

    A third point of view...
    Moving your iTunes library from one computer to another...
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Should you have to resort to pulling data back from a device see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
