Music that I have already bought won't show up in iTunes - no purchased playlist

I have an iPhone 4s, I have bought almost 70 songs from iTunes previously and they show up ina purchased playlist on my phone, but when I try to download them they keep on saying downoad error, tap to retry, and they wont play in my library.
Besides that, I can't get my purchased songs to show up in iTunes either, there is no purchased option in my playlists.
I'm signed in to the same account that i purchased the songs from.
Everything should be working fine and it's not.

Did you already check your USB driver installation, including Apple Device Service? http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538

This should not delete your music on your PC, but, just in case, back up your iTunes library: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1382

  • How to download from I cloud the music that I have already bought if I have changed my location? already tha

    I have bought the music in the spanish store and I have lost a part of it, but I'm established in Guatemala now. I can see the list of my music in I cloud, but when I try to download it a mesage appears that my ID is not from Spain.

    If you transfer any iTunes content to the iPhone from an iTunes library on another computer, all iTunes content on the iPhone will be erased first with a warning message provided indicating this beforehand.
    Authorize the different computer with your Apple ID with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, right click on the iPhone under Devices in the iTunes source list and at the menu window that appears, select Transfer Purchases. This will transfer all apps on your iPhone to the iTunes library.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  You should never update anything without making sure that your backup copy is current, just in case

  • HT2729 Why can't I sync my flim That I have already bought from my iPhone to my iPad

    Why can't I sync my flim that I have already bought for my I phone4 to my new iPad 2

    I'm having the same issue and the books I'm wanting to sync are checked. It worked on previous audiobooks that I had. In fact, I just finished the two that I had loaded and want to load two more. I only keep two books (4 files) on the device to conserve space. I'm using an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.3. there is 3GB free on the iPhone and I don't get any errors when syncing. My music is syncing fine and the books that unchecked were removed from my phone.
    I just tried to resync with one of the books that had previously been on my phone. It will not reload on there either. Here's a screen shot of iTunes and below that is the screen shot from my phone after syncing. Thanks for any help.

  • HT201272 Before backing up my old iphone4 I traded it in for an iphone5. All of the apps I purchased I had no problem retrieving from itunes with no charge but I can't download music that I have already paid for that was not backed up w/out paying again.

    Before backing up my old iphone4 I traded it in for an iphone5. All of the apps I purchased had no problem downloading to my new phone from itunes with no charge, but I can't download music that I have already paid for that was not backed up w/out paying again. How can I get these songs to my new phone without having to buy them again?

    Whether you can re-download music depends upon what country that you are in (and whether it remains in the store). If you don't have a Music section in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone for re-downloading it, then do you not have you library on your computer's iTunes or on your backup of your downloads ? If not then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download

  • How do I remove a movie from my Wishlist that I have already bought?

    How do I remove a movie from my Wishlist that I have already bought? If a movie is on the wishlist that I don't own, I can hit remove. If I have bought it, then it has no way of being removed.
    It's a bug that needs fixing.

    Many thanks but that did not help. I have numerous movies in my ITunes account. I have downloaded a previously purchased film from my Icloud account onto my phone. Obviously, this takes up about 3gb of memory. I therefore, need to push this film back into the cloud thereby removing it from my device. The advice from the link you provided is to swipe the film and you will get a delete marker. You don't. When I go on videos and then films all I get is a list of films I have previously purchased on my ITunes account. I have swiped them every which way it is possible to swipe something but I still don't get a delete or remove button.

  • I recently got my long desired MAC, after my laptop crashed.  Is there anyway to get all of the music that I have already invested in, in iTunes, on my new Mac?  I thought that it had been saved to an external hard drive, but there were only photographs.

    I recently got my long desired MAC, after a laptop died over a year ago.  Isn't there someway to get all of the music and movies that I've already invested in, off of iTunes?  Don't they have a record of my purchases, that could be downloaded to this new computer?  I thought I had it on an external hard drive, after a friend tried to save my itunes and photographs, but there are only photographs on the hard drive.....  Any help would be most appreciated!  Thanks!

    Hello kc9agz,
    Thank you for contacting Mozilla Support. Did you back up your bookmarks before you moved to the new computer? You can find more information about backing up and restoring bookmarks in this article.

  • Why do I have to redownload music that I have already purchased

    HELP PLEASE!
    I am finding it increasingly frustrating that I am not able to listen to music I have purchased. My albums are showing up split on my music app in random orders and some songs, yet again are randomly missing showing the iCloud symbol. I purchase music for the intention of listening to it then and there not for iTunes to decide what I can and cannot listen too. If I have no internet, I cannot listen to the song.
    Please help.
    Many thanks

    I just want to make sure this doesn't happen again.
    Make sure you back up your computer before installing any updates.
    Installing an update should not delete files but from reports here it happens occasionally.  We don't know why and given that probably only a very few people lose their libraries through updating versus millions of updates it is something you simply have to prepare against.  I am not even sure what happened in your case because thgis presence of some files doesn't match anything I can think would happen.

  • I'm having problems with iTunes that keeps changing the genre of music that I have already changed

    I'm a Dj and I make extensive use of inteligent playlists mostly defined by genre and classification.
    I currently have about 70 different playlists, and almost everyone are very important, because I know what music to play, but in some cases I don't remember the name. So it's very usefull for me to know where I can find it according to the genre that I defined.
    BUT!! WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT iTunes keeps changing the genre of some music to the previous that is available on the itunes store (that I don't use because is too vague)
    Do you know what might be happening?

    Hello Torre,
    DAQmx is in fact more efficient than Traditional DAQ, so this behavior you describe shouldn't be the rule. I haven't been able to debug/check thoroughly your code, so here's what I suggest:
    a) Try the W2000 option to give more time to background processes (see this link).
    http://zone.ni.com/devzone/conceptd.nsf/webmain/28A6979ECA9A0CAF862569050053D92D?opendocument
    b) Try with the LabVIEW supplied DAQ examples which do a similar task and test/compare their performance
    c) Check with the LabVIEW tools where the time is spent (Profile VIs tool)
    Hope this will help !
    Regards,

  • TS2988 How do you sync purchased ringtones that you have already bought without buying them again?

    I have purchased many ringtones over the past and whenever I look at my purchases in itunes and try to re-download some o the ringtones that have been deleted from my Itunes; it won't let me veiw my purchased ringtones. Any suggestions?

  • Do i have to pay for music that i have already purchased

    i recently had to get a new iphone, lost 254 songs on my ipod, to get those back, can i just download them from my purchased itune file for free?

    And if you're not in the US, then (probably due to license issues yet to be worked out in other countries) officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications and iBooks. It's your responsibility to make backup copies (as iTunes itself advises) in case something goes wrong with your system, as unfortunately it apparently did in your case, and you lose all the information on your hard drive. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
    For apps, look here for instructions on redownloading.  For songs, movies, and videos, if your computer's hard drive was erased and/or you don't have a backup of your purchased items, either on external media or another computer and don't have them on an iOS device (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad), you may be out of luck and will need to repurchase your content.
    If you have your content backed up or on another iOS device, post back and someone here can help you get your items restored. Otherwise you can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis. But don't count on it. 
    Regards.
