ICloud purchases not viewable in iTunes 12

So - I feel pretty dumb not being able to solve a simple UI change, but this is driving me nuts. Any help would be appreciated.
Normally in iTunes, it's Menubar>view>Show iCloud purchases....yes?
I cannot figure out how to get my iCloud purchases to be seen in my library. I've tried everything....even system preferences....I'm either missing something...or...they got rid of the option? Seems like a strange thing to do away with. I would rather not have to dive deep into iTunes store menus overtime I want to download one of my purchases.
This is iTunes 12.0.1.26 on OS X Yosemite 10.10
2009 MBP
Cheers

Hello there, dbaerg.
The following link to the online iTunes User Guide seems to provide an answer for how to show your iCloud purchases in the latest version of iTunes:
iTunes Store preferences - iTunes Help
Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases
Display items purchased from the iTunes Store that haven’t been downloaded to your computer. These items have a Download button next to them.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

iCloud doesn't store your music.

Why are lyrics not viewable in itunes in the same way as on the ipod?

Why are lyrics not viewable in itunes in the same way as on the ipod? In itunes all you get is "Get Info" then "Lyrics" and that screen then locks itunes until you close it. Inflexible, annoying and surely unnecessary?

All songs need Album, Artist and title.
Also, look under Artist -> Compilations.

Family share purchase not applied toward itunes gift card credit

I'm using the icloud family share program for my family. My son has purchased some songs on itunes but my credit card is being billed instead of the credit balance I have on my shared itunes account. Has anyone else had this same problem and how did you resolve it?

I believe the credit would have to be on his iTunes store account, not yours, in order to be applied to his purchases before any balance due is charged to the organizer's credit card. Your purchases would be charged to your credit first.

ITunes purchases not showing in iTunes and not transferring to iPod shuffle

I Have been using ipod shuffles for several years as they are small and convenient for running. I have purchased 175 songs on iTunes and been forced to purchase FIVE iPod shuffle devices because the battery life in all five devices degrades after approximately 40 re-charges to the point that I only get 15 minutes battery time after a full charge. This is occurring on every iPod shuffle I have bought inclusing the latest one which is only two months old. A couple of weeks ago, I purchased several applications for my iPad and several new songs. I receive emails after each purchase. However, when I looked at my iTunes account, it showed all the items as a single item purchase and the songs were not even showing up as purchased or in my play list. This tells me that someone at Apple accounting is manually adjusting purchases and not itemizing them and the songs were not even given to me. I had to reinstall my entire iTunes program and they had to reinsert the new songs into my purchased playlist. That is why I couldn't transfer my songs onto my iPod shuffle. Now, with the latest IOS 8.3 update, I am getting all sorts of service problems like it says each time I turn on my laptop that I have inserted a CD or DVD, select the times I want to burn. It was never doing that before. It is also giving me all these warnings too:
BookmarkDAV_client.exe - entry point not found
The procedure entry point objc_exception_try_enter could not be located in e dynamic link library objc.dll.
icloudServices.exe entry point not found
The procedure entry point objc_exception_try_enter could not be located in e dynamic link library objc.dll
Apple photo streams.exe entry point not found, etc,
I purchased four new iTunes songs yesterday and only one of them transferred into my iPod shuffle. I am so tired and frustrated with the endless defects in Apple Products, that soon I am just going to say ENOUGH AND COMPLETELY STOP USING ALL APPLE PRODUCTS.

The "Purchased" playlist you see on the right can be a little misleading. It's not mean to show all of the purchases you've ever made. To download (or just see) what a particular has previously purchased used this resource. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519

HT201272 Past music purchases not showing in iTunes store

So I've got iTunes 11.0.2 and am trying to access music that I've previously purchased. I've followed the instructions on this page to access them:
iTunes store -> Music -> Music Quick Links -> Purchased.
On this screen, all I can see is three tabs: Films, Apps, and Books (screenshot attached). All of them are empty. No Music tab, although I've bought some music just yesterday.
I'm trying to access some albums that I bought a couple of years ago - they should be available, just as the more recent music purchases.
Thanks for your help!

Hi Danny,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Take a look at the article linked below, it will walk you through downloading and displaying hiding iTunes in the Cloud content.
iTunes 11 for Mac: Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store

Also, you can setup iTunes to automatically download past purchases as shown here:

Icloud does not show my itunes

I log into icloud and the only apps on there are; mail, contacts, calendar, find my phone & iwork
Why aren't my itunes on there? Songs, tv shows, movies etc?
Thank you in advance

iTunes content is not synced through the cloud. The syncing of your iTunes library is done when you connect your device to your computer using iTunes.
Whilst iTunes does not sync through the cloud, there are a number of services that might be of interest to you. The first is iTunes in the cloud, which allows you to automatically download any purchases you make on one device on another. To set this up you need to check the automatic download option in settings > store on your device.
The other service offered by iTunes is iTunes Match, which allows you to re-download any of your iTunes content (music and music videos only) and not just purchased content on any device as and when needed.

Iphone 4S iTunes music purchase not showing in iTunes on Mac

I purchased a song on my iPhone 4S using the same iTunes account that I use on my MacPro running Lion and the latest version of iTunes.
The purchased song shows up on my Mac iTunes under "purchased", but it does not show up in Music when I search for the song.
I did confirm that the song did download to my Mac from the iTunes store automatically. I am an iCloud subscriber and all of my devices have been synched with iCloud.
Why doesn't it show up in my regular music catalog on my Mac? Any suggestions to fix this are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Bud

Hello Pearljamluvr,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I see that you have transferred your iTunes library to a new computer, and are wondering how to get that content imported into iTunes. To accomplish this, please see the information and the article outlined below.
Part 4 (optional): Add back new content
Copy the iTunes Media folder you created in Part 2 into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder inside the iTunes Media folder you copied in Part 3. iTunes will automatically import the content.

Apple tv purchases not showing in iTunes

I am using AppleTV 2nd Gen5.0.2 (4250) and Macbook pro 2012 with OSX 10.7.4 and iTunes 10.6.3.
I have just noticed that purchases I made using my AppleTv have failed ot sync to my itunes library.
Having seen a few other threads with this problem I have tried their recommendations.
1) go into iTunes and check for Downloads - My account states all purchases for thsi account have been downloaded.
2) I have found the items on the iTunes store and tried to download from there, but it just states purchased and no options to download.
3) I have searched for an Alias folder and do not have one.
Any ideas?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It's not clear if you've tried this;
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

Apple TV 2nd generation purchases not showing in iTunes

I just got the Apple TV 2nd generation for Christmas. I just last week purchased on the Apple TV the old movie Footloose and the new movie Footloose. I can see them and play them all I want on the apple tv but they don't appear in iTunes on my computer (either in movies or in purchased on apple tv).
On the apple tv they don't appear in my library but when i go into movies and search purchased, they appear there and there is a little cloud next to it.
I can see my itunes movie library on the apple tv.
My apple tv is connected to my computer and the apple id for both my apple tv and computer is the same.
Why is this happening? Shouldn't I be able to see my purchases on my apple tv in itunes so that I can download the movie to itunes and put on my ipad or iphone for viwing?

Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes. Then, try going to the menu item "store" (i think that's it, not at my computer) and "check for available downloads." If that works great, if not, go to the iTunes Store within iTunes, look on the right for the new Purchased section. You should be able to download your media from there. After the download(s) complete they will be seen in iTunes and Apple TV via the Computer > Movies sections.

HT201272 purchases not showing in iTunes grid, but showing downloaded under purchases

After converting to iTunes Match, I made additional purchases from the iTunes store. They show as downloaded under purchases in the quick links on the home page, however, they do not appear in my iTunes library, Album Grid by Artist, etc. I literally have to go to the purchases to play those songs vs. pulling them up in the album grid and playing them.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?
Thank you.

I think the Purchased list in your library only shows purchases made on that computer. If they are music, film, or tv shows have you copied them onto your old computer (or a backup) so that they are in the main sections (Music, Films, TV Programmes) of your iTunes library ?

ITunes Purchases not Available for iTunes Plus Upgrade

I have upgraded nearly 250 songs to iTunes Plus and have upgraded my library at every available opportunity, but I still have 155 songs that have not been available for upgrade. Many of the songs and albums that have not been upgraded are available for purchase in iTunes in the iTunes Plus format.
Why are these songs not being made available for upgrade? I have emailed iTunes support but have not received a response. Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone have a solution or information about if/when these purchases will be available for upgrade? Thanks!

What can apparently happen is that for various reasons (replacement of a track in the Store with another copy, slight changes in the release identification, etc.) the link between the track and your Purchase History can break, which will result in the track not appearing as eligible for iTunes Plus upgrade even though it exists as Plus in the Store.
What you'll need to do is contact the iTunes Store Customer Service department using the form at the bottom of the Purchase Issues FAQ web page (there is no category specifically for this issue, so I'd suggest just picking one under the Purchases - problem area) and explain the problem to them. If you've already contacted them via this form, wait a day or two and if you don't get a reply (and if you haven't even received the automated reply you may have a spam filter blocking Apple's messages), try again.
It may take a couple of email exchanges to get past the "form" email responses, but eventually they should work out a solution for you. You may need to provide the track name, artist and order number so they can confirm the original purchase.
Regards.

Old purchases not playing on iTunes or iPod

A couple of months ago my computer quasi-crashed and I had to start a new user account on the Windows XP system I'm using. I imported the old library that was backed up and manually added the folders I had added since then and continued using iTunes. I was also using my iPod through that without syncing it so as not to lose all the playback info/ratings I had.
Yesterday I manually added all the songs that I had gotten from iTunes (mostly the free songs of the week) as well as all my downloads from eMusic and CD purchases. Now that I've done that, I can no longer play my old iTunes purchases on my iPod or on iTunes even with authorization, which it asks for every time. Please tell me there is a way to fix this without spending hundreds of dollars to re-download songs which are already on my computer and iPod.

Thanks for the reply. I tried all that the other day, and the SC Info folder solved the problem for my newer downloads. The old ones are still stuck in that loop and they won't play on the iPod either.
Also, under my purchased music it only lists the songs that I've purchased since the computer crash. I think that may have something to do with it, but I don't know how I'd go about fixing that and I can't find any way to do it using my account options.

Movies Purchased not showing in Itunes.

I recently built two computers one running Windows 7 Professional and one running Windows 8 Professional. On both machines I have had similar issues. I am running iTunes 11.0.4.4. Upon the initial installation and running of iTunes I have all of my cloud purchases showing, Music and Movies, along with Match working with my music library. After a day or so I started getting issues where I was having to accept the license agreement upon opening iTunes and sign into my account and reactivate Match each time I opened the software, I was able to apparently fix this using discussions previously on these forums (thanks b noir). The problem that remains is that while the cloud symbol appears on both the Music and Movies tabs, none of the Movies that I have purchased and are in the cloud are showing, only the ones I have downloaded.
I have tried all the ususal recommendations of ensuring that in the prefs>store> tab I have Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases check box checked. Additionally, I have the Show movies in the Cloud option selected from the View menu when in the Movies tab of iTunes. If you have any ideas on troubleshooting tips please let me know.
Sincerely,
John

Try making sure your movies are not hidden . I had the same issue but when i un hid them they all came back

In-app purchase not using my iTunes giftcard

I purchased an in-app permenant update on my account. My account is not connected to any credit card, but it does have $15 from an iTunes giftcard on it. The in-app purchase was $1.99. After the purchase, my account showed the same balance, $15, but the app stayed updated. Will I be billed or will my account eventually be charged?

Some apps allow the user to purchase things. For example, you can purchase an upgrade to the app which removes advertisements; or "tokens" within a game so you can advance through the game faster/easier; or upgrade from what amounts to the trial version to the "pro" version.
You can disable in-app purchases from Settings->Store if you wish to disallow them in the future. Set appropriate restrictions within Settings to prevent someone else from re-enabling in-app purchases if needed.
