Itunes purchased smart list

I just recently noticed that the songs I buy through iTunes are no longer being put in my "purchased" smart list. I still get them in my library. How can I turn this feature back on? I enjoy having my purchased music in the list.
Thanks

Assuming you still have the Purchased playlist under STORE you can make these Smart Playlists:
*Add Purchased* = Kind contains Purchased AND Playlist is not Purchased (IE Match All rules)
*Add Protected* = Kind contains Protected AND Playlist is not Purchased
Anything that turns up in these lists can be dragged onto the Purchased playlist and both will be empty when all purchased items are included in the Purchased playlist.
I've just looked for the option that controls whether or not the Purchased playlist is displayed (and new items automatically added to it) and I can't find it. Perhaps this is another example of recent streamlining that has removed useful options.

Can i get list itunes purchases in text format?

I would like to have the list of all my itunes purchases in a file format, preferably in csv format.
Is this possible without a lot of manual entry?
TIA

If you still have all your purchases in your library, then yes, it is very easy.
Create a Smart Playlist with all items that have Kind contains Purchased or Protected. Right-click that playlist, and export as a text file. Paste the contents of the text fille into Excel, and Save As a CSV.

How can I watch itunes purchases on my samsung smart tv?

I received a nice Samsung Smart TV as a Christmas gift and I have a couple unwatched movies I purchased on iTunes that I'd like to be able to watch on my TV as I do with the HBO Go, NetFlix, Amazon apps on my Samsung TV, etc. Is there an app I can download to watch iTunes purchases just as I watch Netflix et al? Before I had my smart TV or blu ray players with Netflix and Amazon I used to just connect my MacBook pro to my HDTV, but I feel like this method is quited outmoded now and was hoping for a different solution...
I know people will likely suggest purchasing Apple TV, but I don't see the point when I only own a couple iTunes movies/TV shows and already have a smart TV and two blu ray players with Netflix et al. Also, what else is Apple TV good for that my Smart TV and blu ray players and MacBook pro cannot do?
Would be great if they'd just develop an app that I can install on my smart TV, even if I had to pay a little bit for it... it's much preferable and easier than buying yet another overlapping product.
Thanks in advance for your feedback!

There is an amazing FREE server named Plex. Go to the website and install the app on your MacBook. Now open the app and follow the instructions to select your movie folder. You would want to select your iTunes movie folder in this instance. You can select a different folder for TV shows. You can also select more than one folder for each category. Now while plex matches your movies with MetaData and cover art etc, go to your TV app store and install plex. Follow through the instructions and add your IP to Plex on your TV. And there you go, wirelessly streams your contact over your internal network! It works great I have used this for a long time.
Any questions just ask

HT201272 My purchased videos are not listed in my iTunes purchased list. How do I re download?

My purchased videos are not listed in my iTunes purchased list. How do I re download?

Films and/or TV programmes cant be redownloaded in all countries. If some show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your iPad but not all then have you changed countries since buying them, are they still in yoru country's store, and are any hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
If you can't redownload them then do you have copies of them on your computer's iTunes library and/or on your backup of your downloads/library so that you can sync them back to your iPad ?

How do I point to the iTunes file that lists purchase history?

My iTunes library got messed up and I've been able to point back to most of my settings but do I point to the iTunes file that lists purchase history? Perhaps I'm pointing to an old iTunes library by mistake?

also, you could use this script: _*Track Down Purchases*_.
This script will examine each track in a selection of tracks or a selected playlist to determine if it was purchased from the iTunes Store and then copies it to a discrete playlist named for the person who purchased it, eg: "Steve Ballmer's Purchased Music". Recognizes song, video, and audiobook purchases. Purchaser information is gleaned by examining the track's file, which, depending on file location and access speed, can take as long a second per track. Just sayin'.

I have had three seperate credit card charges from itunes but I haven't ordered anything and they do not appear on my itunes purchased list.

Why do I have mystery charges??!!
Hi I have been charged three seperate transactions on my credit card statement from itunes. I did not make these purchases and I have checked on my itunes purchase list and they do not appear. How or why did this happen? What can be done to prevent further false purchase transactions? I have already informed my credit card company.
Thanks :/

If the charges are not reflected in the Purchase History, then it's most likely a fraudulent charge to your credit card directly rather than an unauthorized purchase through your iTunes Store account in which case it will be up to your bank to handle. I would, however, suggest that you change your password to your Apple ID, using one that will be difficult to guess, just as a precaution. You can also go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store, though if the false charges didn't come through them, there will be nothing they can do.
Regards.

TS3297 When trying to purchase music on my MacBook Pro I got this message: Could not purchase "Wish List". An unknown error occurred (5002) in the iTunes store.

Trying to purchase music and received this message: Could not purchase "Wish List". An unknown error occurred (5002) in the iTunes store. Try again later. I have tryed multiple times and still keep getting this error message. I have the downloaded the latest iTunes version. What is the answer?

So you already followed these steps?
This alert is often the result of an issue with verifying your billing.
Quit iTunes.
Open iTunes.
Test the issue.
If it persists, sign in to store.apple.com using your iTunes account
Click on Change account information
Modify or remove your credit card information.
Click Continue.
Test the issue.
If you have I'd try calling AppleCare back and telling the it is error 5002 and already tried troubleshooting steps as listed in TS3297 and that you have already tried to email iTunes support and have yet to recieve a response.

I have a lot of apple purchases on my credit card statement. They're not mine but they could be my daughters. How can I see a list of my itune purchases to cross reference?

Thanks. Sadly I always seem to have trouble following even the simplest and clearest directions.
I went to iTunes>Store. I swear 'view my account' doesn't exist, but i did see 'account'. The drop down menu only listed options to do with orders. No mention of purchases.
I then rang the local apple store and an 'Applette' guided me through the apple website so I could report my problem. Even then, we encountered a button that was invisible to me. It only showed itself in the 'mouse-over' state as my cursor changed into the pointing hand. Sheesh!! Such is my luck.
Anyway, the 'Applette' agreed that it was suspicious that I hadn't received an emailed invoice for any of the contentious purchases. I may well have been hacked. The problem has not been solved but it has been reported.
Thanks again.

Why does Match list the iCloud status of iTunes purchased songs as "Exceeded Limit"?

Why does Match list the iCloud status of iTunes purchased songs as "Exceeded Limit"?

because you have loaded over 25,000 songs to the icloud library. to find out exactly what is in icloud from itunes match follow these directions to create a blank itunes library and load only the itunes match songs from icloud.
1. You will need to know the location of your iTunes library for later, the default is under music under your username. If its not there find it and remember where it is for later.
2. Then you have to exit iTunes and create a new empty library. To do this hold the option key when you open iTunes. Choose create Library on the pop up dialogue. Create the library anywhere on your system, you can delete the entire library once you have completed your iCloud changes.
3. When the library opens in iTunes it will be empty. Click on iTunes Match and click the start button. after it finishes all of the songs on your iCloud match account will be listed under music.
if you want to delete some or all songs from icloud so you can re-sync itunes match to show the songs in your current library fowwow this.
4. you can select up to 1000 at a time and delete them.
5. when you have deleted what you want, close iTunes and open again holding the option key and navigate to your original library, usually in the music folder under your username. You should be all set and can click iTunes match again and your account will be populated with the ones in your current library.
6. You can navigate to the temp library you created in finder and delete it as it is no longer needed.

Lost purchased audio book from my ipad? ituns dosn,t list it on my account

i purchased the audio book killing lincoln and had it on my ipad and now its gone, how can i get it back? itunes doesn't list it on my account?

Audiobooks are a one-time only download from the store. Do you have a copy of it in the Books part of your computer's iTunes library or on your backup of your downloads/library so that you can sync it back to your phone ? If you haven't kept a backup of your downloads (you should be keeping and maintaining a backup of all of your downloads, you are only guaranteed one download of each item), and if it's still in your country's store, then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/

HT204088 export or print out list of all iTunes purchases?

Itunes has lost my purchase song list but all the albums are list as complete my albums. The ones i have purchased are tell me i have to buy them again. Not happy Itunes not Happy Apple

Itunes has lost my purchase song list but all the albums are list as complete my albums. The ones i have purchased are tell me i have to buy them again. Not happy Itunes not Happy Apple.
How do i fix it or does apple have to fix it on there end?

If the single songs are no longer available in Itunes, that would also explain why you aren't able to see your purchases.
If the songs are on your phone you can transfer purchases to iTunes app on your computer. You wouldn't be able to download them again though.

ITunes Match: Smart Playlists now including videos that shouldn't be there

Hi All,
Hopefully someone can assist me with this, as it properly doing my head in.
I am a big user of Smart Playlists in iTunes, which is brilliant with iTunes Match. However, I have a couple of smart playlists that I use all the time that I am having problems with. These two playlists are very similar so I will just use one as an example.
The criteria of this smart list is 1. Media Kind = Music, 2. Rating = less than one star, 3. Plays = less than 10. You may have figured out this is a playlist I use to listen to new music before I rate it.
So, here's the problem. On iTunes, this playlist is correct in that it only shows music, however, on my iPhone, iPad and Apple TV, the playlists include some of my music videos which all have a start rating of 1 or higher. Of course, these music videos dont meet two of the smart playlists criteria; media kind and rating. Given that the playlist is correct within iTunes, I can only assume that this is an issue somewhere in iCloud as opposed to my local settings, but I don't know for sure.
Apart from just being a general annoyance, when trying to play these playlists, as soon as a video turns up in a music shuffle, it then takes ages to buffer and often just causes the device to hang, requiring a reboot or similar.
Any suggestions guys and gals? Any help offered will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Stu

UPDATE: so i was looking through some more, and here's another issue: I bought James Blunts album many many years ago. If I look at the "matched" playlist it shows "Goodbye My Lover" which is track 4/11, the remaining 10 tracks are in the "purchased" playlist. Checking the info on "Goodbye My Lover" show that it is "Purchased AAC audio file"
I've also bought the AC/DC box set from iTunes, and some of those tracks are showing in the "uploaded" playlist!
In "View Options" i enabled iCloud status and it's just all over the place! Music i've purchased (and subsequently added to iTunes from apple support allowing me to redownload purchases) are shown as "Uploaded" or "Matched", some songs from albums (imported) are matched and others uploaded. Parts of box sets are "uploaded", others are "matched" and others "purchased"...
what the?! I'm just confused! I'd like to use the option to upgrade my songs to the best quality (for my CD imports) and thought these playlists would help (actually a single button - "Upgrade" would be nice!) but they don't appear to be too accurate

ITunes missing from Media Browser -- "open itunes to populate list"

I am on a MacBook Pro 10.7.3 running GarageBand '11 6.0.4 and all of the sudden no tracks will display under Audio in the Media Browser (Photos and Movies still appear). No tracks from either iTunes or GB show up. This is confusing as I have been using GB to make podcast/music mixes for more than 5 years and I haven't changed any settings or done anything different, but now I get the message "open itunes to populate list" or "To see GB songs here, open GB to edit and save your music."
Also, for quite some time I have been unable to go the alternative route of dragging tracks directly from iTunes and dropping them on to the timeline in GB -- that used to work, but mysteriously stopped, so I am dependent on the Media Browser for importing music.
I read thru the forums and tried the advice given to someone this was happening to in Final Cut -- recreating iTunes .xml file. Did that, still no tracks display.
Other advice says to reinstall GB or iLife altogether -- I hope to avoid this, but if I need to go this route, how do I reinstall GB w/o a disk? Can I do it through App Store and will it recognize that I have already purchased it?
I am dying to be able to get back in to my music mix making in GB, so thanks in advance.

you can't, you'd need to find the DVD

no, it'll only recognize your purchase if it was through the app store
