I have to rebuy an album i already own

When i go to download one of my albums it asks me to repurchase it. I have checked my previous purchases and it says that i have brought the album but it will not allow me to download it. i have tried contacting Itunes support but the album does not appear in the report a problem section.

If you bough the album from the iTunes store then it should show in the purchase history on your account (you only have the one account ?) : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store. If it was purchased on that account (and you haven't changed countries since buying it) then it's possible that the rights-holder has removed the version that you bought and replaced it with a new version (which will be treated as a new purchase if you want to download it). You don't have a copy of the album anywhere e.g. on your backup of your downloads/library, or on an iOS device ?
The report a problem site (http://reportaproblem.apple.com), if that is what you are trying to use, only lists the last 90 days purchases.

    I was gifted an album I already own. How do I transfer that gift to another album?

    You can't change the item that was gifted, the person that sent it to you can try resending it to somebody else : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1541
    Or, and if they've been charged for it, they can try contacting support for a credit or refund : 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

  • Will I Have to Pay for Software I Already Own come July

    I am currently financially incapable of meeting Adobe's Creative Cloud subscription commitments. I am a struggling freelancer who is also working full time for minimal wage, and I cannot afford to pay $50.00 a month to rent software. I am even less willing to have to pay for software that I have already purchased if I am to continue to be able to use it. I currently own the CS5 suite, and I have been trying to save up for the CS6 suite. However, I am now scared that I will have to pay heafty fees so I can continue to use software that I have already purchased and paid for. Am I going to be forced to pay a monthly fee too keep my software licenses?

    Yes just like Kappy said you will have to download it from the App Store than Submit your claim. (Which I belive is App Store credit). You can read the full press release here:

  • Pre-ordering albums and already owned Singles

    I have bought songs that have been released as singles, and will be featured on a full length album soon. If I pre-order the album, will I be double charged for the songs I bought as singles but will be featured on the album?

    Pre-ordering is simple. You pre-order the album. You're not billed until the album is released. If there is any content related to the album, available for download at the time, you will get to download it. You will receive more than one email confirmation(date of pre-order, updates regarding pre-order, day before release, and day of release). It's true that there is no set time for the final email, but you will get one. You still have until you actually download the completed album to back out of the purchase. If you decide to back out, you will only be charged if there was earlier content available(at the time of pre-order). All new music availability is Tuesdays, weekly. It is available for download at exactly Midnight, meaning 12:00 am, Tuesday morning. Trust me. I download on my iPhone, via iTunes WIFI Store, every Tuesday morning at 12:15 am.

  • HT1473 If I already own a song (from a different album) and the same song is in an album which I want to get, do I still have to pay for the song?

    Other details:
    First album/s- Dookie (Green Day), american idiot (green day)
    and 21st century breakdown (green day)
    Album with same songs in it- international super hits (green day)

    If I already own a song (from a different album) and the same song is in an album which I want to get, do I still have to pay for the song?
    Yes.
    The album which the song has been listed under (on the song's page) is listed in your library under that album. The song is then removed automatically from the first album
    No it's not.
    Purchasing a new song or album will not affect any other song or album in your library.
    In the case of the two albums you mention, if you purchase them both, you will have the same song (different copies) in both albums.

    Hello, Edgarflo. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here is some helpful information regarding preorder albums in iTunes.  I would recommend checking to see if you can download the single directly from the preorder album as some artists release a single that is separate from the album and will be a different purchase.

  • When uploading my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto on my mac, is there a way to keep them in the albums I already have them in on my phone?

    when uploading my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto on my mac, is there a way to keep them in the albums I already have them in on my phone?

    No.  All imports go into a new Event.  How many new events are created is determined by what you set in iPhoto's General preference pane in regards to how Events are autosplit during import:

  • I have just added an album to my iTunes from a CD. But the tracks are now displayed in 2 places in my iTunes library. How do I consolidate them into a single album?

    I have just added an album to my iTunes from a CD. But the tracks are now displayed in 2 places in my iTunes library -- as if I had downloaded 2 seperate albums. How do I consolidate them into a single album in my iTunes?

    Did you use the same method to add each of the six albums to your library?  With some of iTunes configuration options, some imports (CDs, Store purchase, use of the Automatically add to iTunes folder) will go into the standard media folder location, but the other methods to add media files already on your PC (Add File to Library..., Add Folder to Library..., drag and drop) will leave the files in their original spot.
    The other factor that may influence where iTunes locates media files is the setting of the "part of a compilation" flag in the media metadata.  When this flag is set iTunes (when configured to organize your media and copy all additions to the media folders) will place files in iTunes Media\Music\Compilations\album_title rather than iTunes Media\Music\artist_name\album_title.

    I am new to apple software having worked with microsoft all these years. The switch was mainly for my photographs. Iphotos seemed to have changed all digital albums from jpeg to tiff format hence the very small resolution. Can anyone out there please help me recover these photos to origianal format???
    Thanks

    Gosh I am already tired of trying to retrieve this photo album and it seems like a waste of time and money spent on an apple IMac.
    No disrespect intended but until you learn how iPhoto and Macs work you will continue to be confused and frustrated. 
    You say you want to create a book in iPhoto and have it printed by Apple, right.  Have you finished creating  the book in iPhoto? If so the Control (right) - click in the View all pages window background and select Save Book as  PDF in the contextual menu?
    Open the the PDF file with Preview and check for any errors or problems.  If there are none you can order the book by clicking oin the Buy Book button at the bottom. Save the pdf file to compare with the printed book when it arrives in you feel there's a problem with it.  That's all you need to do.  There's no use of the Finder required.

  • I have just purchased an album and it isnt in my library after the download

    i have just purchased and album and it isnt in my library, despite the download section saying it had already been. Also, i have purchased a song, also which is not in my library?
    thanks

    Do you see it in your Recently Added playlist and do you use iTunes Match?
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4543259 - delay of several hours (for some people overnight) for new additions to iTunes to appear in the main library window as a result of using iTunes Match.  Things to try:
    1) Turn off Match, see if the items appear, then turn Match on again.
    2) Drag the items from the Recently Added playlist to the library.
    3) Wait until they do appear.

  • I hav down loaded an album twice and been charged twice what can I do?

    I have down loaded the same album twice by accident and been charged for two albums.  What can I do to just pay for one album?

    Isn't there some message telling you you already own an album?

  • HT204074 I am using the same computer i used to make all my music downloads and when i try to re-download a song or album it already says "downloaded". i need to re-download because the backup was lost. my computer is still authorized on my account.

    If you still have the 'pointers' to them in the Music part of your iTunes library (i.e. where you would click on them to play them) then iTunes will assume that you still have them and will show them as downloaded in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the iTunes store home page - if you try deleting one of them then it should get the cloud symbol for re-downloading, and you can do the same for the others.
