  • How does one retrieve a lost music purchased list?

    It seems that I've lost my music purchased list and I'm wondering if there's anyway of retrieving it through Apple?

    Sorry, but I'm not clear on what you're asking. Do you mean that the Purchased playlist is gone? If that's what you mean, just create a new Smart Playlist with Kind = Protected AAC audio file. That will recollect all your purchased music.
    If that's not what you meant, please post back and explain your difficulty further.
    Regards.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option which is revealed in the iTunes app on your iOS device by tapping the more button at the bottom of the screen.

  • Ringtones and Music Videos bought no showing in the Purchased List

    Recently I bought a Music Video and some Ringtones, but I had to restore my iPhone and by doing that I lost it for some reason. Initially I wasnt worried since I can enter my purchased list at iTunes Store and download it again... BUT for some reason, these specific ones are not listed there.
    Do you guys know what should I do?

    What you can re-download depends upon what country that you are in, and whether the items remain available in the store - but ringtones (and audiobooks) are currently a one-time only download, and can't be re-downloaded anywhere.
    If you don't have them on your computer nor on a backup (and they are still in the store) then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : 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

  • There is absolutely NO way to drag and drop newly purchased music from the Purchased list on the phone into my iTunes library?  I'm finding it hard to believe that something so simple cannot be done!

    I like to make MP3 CD's when I have people over, or when my friends have people over so I can just pop them into the CD player and let them play all night without having to worry about changing the CD or anything.  Well, Apple's music is in AAC format, so I have to convert the songs to MP3 files using the converter in iTunes.  So I'll convert them to MP3's and just delete the AAC file so I don't have doubles.  The problem is, the next time I plug the phone into my laptop to transfer new purchases, iTunes thinks that the songs I converted aren't there anymore because the phone has them as AAC files, and iTunes has them as MP3 files, so it doubles the music again...EVERY time!!  It's very frustrating!  So this is why instead of clicking Transfer Purchases, I would like to be able to just drag and drop the songs I want from the Purchased list on the phone into my iTunes library.  I hope I explained this right...lol.  Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like I'm able to do that.  I'm hoping maybe somebody here can help me out and give me some pointers on what to do about this.  Thanks!!

    That stinks!  I can actually do that at my house...I just plug my iPhone right into the wire that's plugged into my receiver in my living room...but some of my friends aren't "technology savvy"...lol...so they just have DVD players and I'll put the CD in there because it will read an MP3 disc.  What's funny, is I have the phone set to "Manually Manage Music", and when I plugged it into the laptop just now, the one song I downloaded last night on the phone, transferred over to the iTunesl library.  That NEVER happens.  And it only transferred the one song...it didn't double the other songs like it ususally does.  I swear, iTunes does what it wants, when it wants sometimes...lol.  Thank you for your quick response. 

  • HT204406 I purchased music on my iPad (and it works fine).  It populated my purchased list on my home computer but will not download ?? when I access it in the iTunes store I can click on play but nothing happens-how do I get it to download on my computer

    I purchased music on my iPad (and it works fine).  It populated my purchased list on my home computer but will not download (purchase is no longer a given option) ?? when I access it in the iTunes store I can click on play but nothing happens…how do I get it to download on my computer ?

    If you connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases then it should copy over to your iTunes library. Depending upon what country that you are in you might also be able to redownload it on your computer's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.

  • I use to have a iTunes account with my old computer, and I have lost all my iTunes music, some purchased, some downloaded from another source. Now I'm using a brand new computer (Windows) and I have opened a NEW iTunes account, but I need my music back...

    I use to have a iTunes account with my old computer, and I have lost all my iTunes music, some purchased, some downloaded from another source. Now I'm using a brand new computer (Windows) and I have opened a NEW iTunes account, but I now I need to figure out if it is possible to recoup my music content that I originally had. I had, I believe around close to 300 songs on my account ;(......Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks Again, Ronald

    Now remove all your info and update the old AppleiD/iTunes account and use only that account.
    You cannot transfer items between iTunes accounts.
    You can redownload all the content.

    Yu can try this program.  If unsuccessful, the contents of the iPod will be deleted if yu update/restore with the iPod in recovery mode.

    Hi again Limons,
    just got your last reply per mail, re: 'presently only available in the USA.'
    Unfortunately, you're right. Just found this article: http://www.digitalmusicnews.com/stories/061011icloud
    seem like it's going to be a while before this gets sorted out . . .
    Frustrating outcome to my question, but thanks a lot for helping me sort out what the problem was :-)
    All the best to you.

  • Purchases do not appear on purchased list or music, even though it says they should be there

    What do you do when you purchased from ITunes Store and it says that you purchased it, you checked for available downloads, says none available, but the purchase does not appear in Music or Purchases?

    Did you load the Materials into the material Library?
    Select a Material
    Click on the Thumbnail to enable the flyout
    Then click on the little triangle on that flyout (I know we will fix this )
    You should see a Load Materials and below that a list of Materials (screen hot)
    You can also mnaual add them to the Preset folder > Materials (screen shot)

  • I downloaded i tunes onto my new computer, i connected my iphone during the updating process itunes failed and i lost all my purchased music from my iphone. I would like to get it reinstated how ?

    I downloaded itunes onto my new computer, i connected my iphone during the updating process itunes failed and i lost all my purchased music from my iphone and can no longer retrieve them. I would like to know how i can reinstate the lost music please.

    When you are done with this issue, consider the computer back at the office may still
    have access to your iTunes account, and it should be de-auhorized. You can do that
    remotely, but be sure you carefully do not mess up your other computer iTunes libraries.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • LOST MY IPHONE WITH SOME RECENT MUSIC & VIDEOS PURCHASED ON IT.

    i lost my iphone with some recent music & videos purchased on it.
    now that my phone is gone,
    *how do i retrieve the purchased media on my itunes at home????????*
    thanx

    Unless you have backed up the items you don't. You can contact iTS Customer Service and tell them what has happened and they might give you a second download. You are only entitled to one download of the purchased content per the iTS terms of service.

    I just updated my iphone, but have lost all my musics I purchased from itunes.

    Depending on which country that you are in you might be able to re-download it for free : re-downloading. Otherwise, have you not got a copy of them on your computer and/or on a backup that you can use to re-sync them to the iPhone ?
