If I erased a season of a TV show from both iTunes library and iCloud, what can I do to restore it or at least have it back in my purchased list?

     Recently I bought three seasons of a TV show, but when I was going to download the second one I noticed that I could have it with 1080p, so I changed my settings so all other downloads would be in 1080p. The second and the third season where downloaded that way, but since I didn't noticed this when I was downloading the first season; it was downloaded in 720p. I thought that if I erased the first season I could download it again but in 1080p, so I deleted the whole season from my iTunes library, but also from iCloud when it asked if I wanted so.
     Until that moment I thought I was doing it the right way, but when I went to iTunes Store to download it, there was no option to do so, even though that in the season icon it said that it was purchased. After that I went to my purchased list and it wasn't there.
     Fortunetely, I always make a backup for my Mac in an external drive, so what I did was copying the file of the season that was in my backup into the "Add Automatically to iTunes" folder. The season is back in my iTunes library, but not in my purchased list.
     The problem is that I can't download it to my iPod from iCloud. I could sync my iPod from iTunes, but most of the time I don't have my Mac with me. I would like to have the season back as if it was purchased normally, and I would like to know if there's a way that I could have it in 1080p.
     If anyone could help me to do so, or tell what I did wrong; I will be very grateful.

This may help

As far as the TV series being in 1080p then that is upto the content provider and some older seasons are in 720p or only SD eg Stargate
It may well be that the season you want is only available in 720p

How can I restore a purchased TV season that I erased from my library and iCloud, and that isn't on my iTunes Store Purchased list?

A few days ago I erased a TV season from my iTunes library, but also from iCloud accidently. Now that I want to restore it, I can't because it isn't on the iTunes Store Purchased list; even though that if I go to the page of the season, in the image it says that it is purchased, but I can't download any episode. What can I do to solve this?

Re-sync your device to iTunes and uncheck Sync under Photos.

I accidentally erased a music album that I purchased on iTunes. How can I get the iTunes store to recognize that it is no longer in my iTunes library and download it again?

Delete the broken links in iTunes then look at your purchased list to redownload.
If this happened because you were deleting files from the iTunes folder in Finder, don't. You have to let iTunes do all the deleting and moving or you will end up with broken links.

Hi Lisa,
I know from experience that this must be a frustrating situation for you especially if you don't want to loose the music/video content that is currently on your ipod. Unfortunately though you may have to consider re-syncing it as it thinks its currently synced with another computer.
If you bought any music that is on the ipod through itunes you can opt to right click the ipod in itunes and 'transfer purchases' if you authorise your library in the 'Store' menu in itunes. Some reasons for this happening may include some of the following:
Deleting and reinstalling your itunes on the computer.
Removing the account you had on the computer you used itunes in and making a new one. (User account, eg: Lisa).
Changing computers in the past.
A friend or family member syncing it on their computer to give you there music.
A sign of a failing iPod.
Alternatively you can opt to not sync it and keep the music that is on your ipod there but this means you will never be able to update your ipod.
Hope this helps!

Drew how is that even possible? I use gift cards all the time, any time I've had insufficient funds iTunes will not allow the purchase, sights Insufficient funds and rejects the purchase. Any time I log into my account the money in that account appears in the upper left corner. If you're not seeing that then you have other issues. Anyway... Kneil is right you should be able to rip CDs you own to your iTunes library (regardless of your money matters with iTunes), then depending on how you set up the music you need to add it to your playlist and then sync it to your iPod. Did imported music ever work? How are you ripping or importing the music to iTunes? Are you using a compatible format?
Something else to look at-- It's possible your cable is defective, have you tried a new or different cable? Some of what your describing is a bad cable issue. Good luck, Cheers.

I purchase a season of a tv show from I tunes. How di I move it to my video icon so I can watch it in flight?

I Purchased a season of a tv show from I tunes. It sits in my I tunes purchased file. How do I move it to my video icon file so I can watch while in flight?

If it shows in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app then tap on the cloud icon next to it and it should start to download into the Videos app - if it says 'downloaded' against it in Purchased then it should already be in the Videos app.

I accidentally erased music somehow from my itunes library, how can i get it back?

i accidentally erased music somehow from my itunes library, how can i get it back? I'm not sure how I did it, but I do know something has been wierd ever since. i remember using it and arranging songs, and then, bing! Songs were missing. Please help!
Not quite sure what info you need to answer this. I dont have all my music synced to icloud unfortunately...at least not that i'm aware of.

You either have an incredibly complex computer setup or I think you are confusing terminology here. If you have iTunes set to share your library with others in your iTunes preferences then other computers in the area will see it as an item when they are running their iTunes and have it set to check for shared libraries. Your husband is probably seeing this when running iTunes on his computer. You can disable this sharing on your computer and/or he can set his not to pick up shared libraries.
By the way, an iTunes account is something you log into when you want to buy something from Apple. On your computer it is simply your iTunes collection or your iTunes application. So you need to turn off sharing in your iTunes application preferences.
Your husband is seeing "his" iTunes collection when running iTunes, but it is possible he doesn't have anything in it if it is a brand new computer.

HT204150 mayday.....I inadvertly erased my contacts when I deleted them from my old phne and now my new phone contacts are gone

mayday....I inadvertly erased my contacts when I deleted them from my old phone and now my contacts in my new phone is empty.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Do you have a back up taken prior to deleting them.
To restore from a back up made through iTunes, follow these instructions.
To restore from a back up made through iCloud, try the following:
The difficulty in restoring iCloud data from a back up is that the back up is older than the current version on iCloud and anything that is restored gets removed again when an iCloud sync occurs.
Ensure the device is connected to your local network.
Start the restore from iCloud back up.
Allow the devices settings to restore (watch for the confirmation of completion).
As the apps begin to restore pull the connection to your router WAN port (the one that goes to the telephone point).
Wait for the time out confirmation.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn off contact syncing (keep contacts when prompted).
Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
Delete any iCloud contacts from iCloud.com on a computer.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn on contact syncing (merge contacts when prompted).
May I suggest that you carry out a back up to iTunes before you try anything, that way should things become even worse, you can at least restore back to where you are now.

I accidently erased all my downloaded files from my videos to files, what can i do to restore?

Under settings i mistakenly erased my downloaded files. is there a way to restore those files?

There is no option of restoring the downloaded files from FF itself, You can only restore your Add-ons, bookmarks, passwords, preferences, history and tabs if you are using the "sync option".
If you have any utility setup in your OS to take periodic backups only then there is a possibility to restoring the files that has gone.

Can i erase my itunes library, and still keep all of the songs on my ipod?

i have a 30 gb, 5th gen. ipod. i have over 6,000 songs on it, and it is slowing my computer down pretty bad. so my question is if i erase the songs to allow my computer to run faster, will the songs on my ipod be erased? if so, is there any way to move them somewhere else so it doesnt slow my comp down anymore? any advice would help

i suggest that you only charge your ipod using a power charger, then it won't ever matter what songs are in your library.
however, you wouldn't be able to add any songs to your ipod in the future...because if you sync your library with your ipod, any songs that you deleted would be removed from your ipod.

How can i erase dublicate songs easily from my iTune library.

I have almost 8000 songs in my iTune and most of them have dublicates. How can i easily erase dublicate songs?

First you want to identify the duplicate songs, to do this you can go to File and from there select Show Duplicates. If you have a way to distinguish ones from the others you should be able to do it quite fast. For example, organize them by Genre, or by Last time played.
If you can't tell them apart this way then you'll have to go about it manually. I *think* there's an app that sorts out your library for you too but I can't remember the name, or where I saw it.
