I downloaded an album, but it only shows up in the purchased playlist section

So I downloaded an album from iTunes and when I search my library it comes up as I'm typing it in, but when I hit enter to pull it up there is nothing. I doesn't exist under Albums, Artists only in the Purchased Playlist

I have a Smartplay list called "Recently Added", created by a list of the last 25 items most recently added.
I sometime find things I've purchased or copied in there.
If it is not there,
Choose, “iTunes Store” on the left.
Choose “Purchased” on the right.
Choose, “All Songs” or a specific album.
Choose your previous purchase

You can't.
If you have a US-address credit card, you could use it to set up a new account, but you'll runs into all sorts of other problems.

TS1424 Songs availble with album purchase only show downloaded with album but play will not play past the first few seconds of the song. Solution???

Purchased entire album. Songs available only with album purchase show completed download with album, but play only a short demo of song (both PC and iPod). This is my first iTunes purchase so I likely missed a step. Is this a user of iStore error? Solution(s)?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

Why aren't my purchased songs showing up in the purchased playlist

When I buy a song from iTunes on my iPhone 5, it shows up in my library but not the "purchased" playlist. I didn't have this problem with my iPhone 4S. Is there a setting that needs to be changed so it shows up under purchased? I didn't have this problem on th iPhone 4S.

I too am having this problem. Its really frustrating. In fact i have my setting to have all music on my phone however the phone displays I have 2986 and the itunes reads 2987. I'm one off on this area. In addition some of my purchased music does not show in my purchased list on the phone. It does show on the itunes account on the computer and in the overall albums just not in the purchased. I drug the purchased song from the albums to the purchased playlist and tried to have it re-sync... did not work.. I tryed re-booting the phone, and restoring from back up all failed.
Another problem I have found since the IOS7 updates is the phone doesn't keep my music where it was when I get out of my car. I used to love that I would get out of the car in the middle of my playlist go in the store come out and it would pick up right where it left off. Now I get back in the car and it begins playing random music of all my entire library. I love all my music however I don't want to listen to Christmas and Halloween music all the time. I don't want to remove these from the phone as I want them always available. I just want the function to go back to how it was.
Oh and the last thing, sometimes when I turn my phone sideways and am listening to music the collage of albums shows but freezes so I cant turn the phone back and change the music. I like having the capablility of turning the phone to see pictures and things auto turn but not this collage of albums if it's gonna delay me swictching or skipping songs.
Any ideas for these issues? Is apple aware and working on these?

HT1725 My Itunes has downloaded my album but I only have 8 songs, I should have 10

Itunes looks like it has downloaded the whole album I purchased but when I go into my library, I only have 8 songs in there when there should be 10!

Does the Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option on your computer's iTunes download those two tracks, or dow they show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes for downloading (music won't show as a category there in all countries) ?
If not then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

I pre-ordered an album, but its not showing up in my purchase history but it says I have it in my acount info. Thanks in advanced.

I pre-ordered George Ezra's new album (the dulxe version), but and it says I have it in my accout info but it wont download.

Hi GroveMaster,
The article below explains how the pre-order process works. If the item does not automatically downlowd to your iTunes Music library, and you are unable to download the purchased content, I've included a link to contact the iTunes Store Support team as well.
iTunes Store: About pre-orders - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202723
You can pre-order music and movies from the iTunes Store prior to their public release date. Pre-ordered items will download when they become available.
If an item isn't yet available, you may be able to pre-order it and download it when it becomes available. Items available for pre-order will have an orange pre-order button that displays the pre-order price. Most pre-orders will show an expected release date near or below the pre-order button. When the pre-order item becomes available, your account will be billed for the pre-order, and the item will appear in the Purchased section of your account. If there is a billing issue that prevents us from billing your account when the item is released, you'll receive an email notifying you that the item is available. You need to click the link within the email, using a computer and the latest version of iTunes, to fulfill the pre-order. You may also receive one or more emails if the status of your pre-order changes.
Some pre-orders include songs that are available for download immediately. When you pre-order, you will be charged only for these songs and you will receive them immediately.To pre-order an item
Click or tap the Pre-order button.
Click or tap Pre-order on the confirmation dialog.
When you've successfully completed a pre-order, a thank-you page will appear.
Download a pre-ordered item
When a pre-ordered item becomes available, you will receive an email letting you know that you can download your pre-order.
If you enabled the option to automatically download prepurchased content in iTunes, then your pre-ordered content may already be in your library. If not, click the download link provided in your email notification, and your pre-ordered content will begin to download. You can also use the Check for Available Downloads feature in iTunes on your computer (choose Store > Check for Available Downloads) to begin downloading your pre-order.
To view, cancel, or see the expected release dates for your pending pre-orders
Choose Store > View My Apple ID and click Manage Pre-Orders, which is located in the Settings section at the bottom of the Account Information screen in iTunes on your computer.
From the Manage Pre-Orders screen, click the Cancel button to the right of the pre-order you want to cancel. You'll be asked to confirm your pre-order cancellation.
Note: You can't manage pre-orders on iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad.

I used my icloud to restore everything on my new iphone 5s, but it only shows some of the photos and when I click on those that are showing it says "Loading". What happened to my photos? How can I restore them on my new iphone?

I upgraded from a 4s to a 5s. I backed up my icloud and in the Apple store they helped me transfer. I didn't wait in the store for all my information to download and when I got home later that night the apps all downloaded and were good. I didn't check the photos and videos though. I think I may have stopped the icloud retoration and maybe that is why not all my photos are on my new iphone. Now in the camera roll it shows slots for photos, but they are not there. When I tap on the photo, it just shows "Loading" and is working, but the photo doesn't appear. Any assistance would be helpful

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.

I completed an album but it only said that i had purchased one of the songs

Hello, I had used an iTunes gift card to purchase credit and when I went to complete an album (As the World Bleeds-Theocracy) it did not recognize that I had already about five songs, instead only saying i had purchased one and charged me accordingly when I completed the album. How do I get that credit refunded to my account?
Thanks,
Trey170

I bought an audiobook, but it wont show up in the audiobook section in the music app

I bought an audiobook, but it wont show up in the audiobook section in the music app. When I go to the book in the search in ITunes, it says it is downloaded...but does not show up in the audiobooks section in my music app

If you pull down the centre of the iPad's homescreen (not from right at the top of the screen as that will open notifications) to open the search field, if you type in the name of the audiobook or the name of the author does that find it ?

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com

You might, depending upon what country that you are in, be able to download them via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone, and the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes (or try the Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option on your computer's iTunes and see if that downloads them).
If you aren't in a country where music can be redownloaded, and you never downloaded those 14 tracks, then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com

I am sorry to hear. Yes it's very disappointing and the fact that you can't at least re-download your purchase makes it that much more irritating haha well thank you and good luck!

If you log into your account are you able to set them ? Go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side are you able to select the questions/answers ? If not then is there a reset link beneath the 2 questions ? (The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address on your account.)
If not then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
