My purchases are not showing up.

A bit of background:
I had to wipe my hard drive and I don't have my itunes library anymore.  When I went to download all my songs again, only 166 of them were shown to have existed and almost all of them were songs that I did not have on my ipod, but rather purchases by other family members as we share an account.  I have all my songs on my ipod, but I cannot sync with itunes to get new ones as it would erase my ipod songs.  Additionally, some of the files have corrupted on my ipod and the songs will not play so they need to be replaced (but obviously I can't).  Upon calling I was informed that I had to pay for support and the online support is just really awful.  I refuse to pay for support to get music that I have already paid for back in my possesion. 
My question:
Is there anyway I can get my songs off my ipod onto my computer (I have an ipod touch and windows vista) or get my songs back onto my account?

So for what reason did you choose to wipe the drive without first backing up the important data on the drive?  Sorry, but that's a bonehead move.
You can try connecting the device but not syncing.  Then select File > Transfer Purchases, that may work.
Other wise, Downloading past purchases from iTunes

  • My itunes tv and movie purchases are not showing in my video app

    my itunes tv and movie purchases are not showing in my video app, iphone 5s, and this has happened since ios 8 was installed

    Were they previously downloaded/synced to your iPhone, and if they were have you got them in the TV Shows and Movies parts of your computer's iTunes library. When you update via a computer the device is backed up, the iOS version is updated, and your content is then restored to the device - but none of your iTunes downloads are included in the actual backup (just your documents, notes, calendars, app settings etc), instead it looks to get the apps, music, films, TV shows from your iTunes library.
    If the 'show all' setting isn't showing them then what country are you are in, you are logged in with the same account that you bought them with, you haven't changed countries since buying them and they aren't hidden : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases ?

  • Past purchases are not showing as "purchased" in the itunes store

    ok the other day i bought 10 songs from the itunes store, all from different albums. 2 of the albums i have decieded to buy, and of course we all know that it is sometimes cheaper to use the "buy album" option rather than buying all the songs individually.....well when i went to "buy" these albums i get the message that i will be purchasing songs already purchased and that i will now have "duplicates" of the "previously purchased" songs. i dont want that as you all can understand....i normally get the message that the songs previously purchased will not be downloaded when i buy albums that i had previously bought songs off of.....some of the other songs that i purchased in this "batch" are showing as "purchased" in the itunes store. it is just the songs off of those 2 albums that are not showing as purchased....now i do want to point out that all the songs downloaded just fine, just some of them dont show as purchased. any idea as to why this is happening and how to fix it?

    Hello stuartfromwillenhall,

  • Some of my purchase are not showing in my music file

    I have a new computer and most of my songs was transfers will I upload my ipod however I still have more music that I dont' see in my music file so I can put them on my ipod

    You can't see them in what 'music file' ? If you mean your computer's iTunes library then have you copied all of it from your old computer : iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer, or copied it from your backup of your library ?
    You might be able to redownload your iTunes music purchases (depending upon what country that you are in and if it is still available in your country's store) via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page. If music shows there but not all, then check to see if any is hidden : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases

  • I have itues match but the tunes I've purchased are not showing?

    I wonder if anyone has any suggestions ive tried turnining iTunes match on and off to no avail, can someone help please.?

    Hello Paul
    Check to see if Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases is checked in iTunes Preferences so that you can see your purchases with the cloud symbols next to them.  Alternatively you can go to the iTunes Store and look at your purchases and download them directly from there as well.

  • My iTunes Purchases are not showing up at all

    I have the latest version of OSX (Mavericks). I have the latest version of iTunes (11.1.3) and I also use iTunes Match.
    Something must have happened in the past few weeks or so, but when I go into iTunes on my computer, go to the STORE and click PURCHASES, my page is completely blank.
    I am signed into my account.
    I tried reseting the cache.
    I don't know what else to do!! Help!!!

  • HT201085 Family sharing not working, purchases are not showing on my co-cloud hubby's purchases but I have the receipt, any suggestions?

    My husband and I can't share games, I have the iTunes receipt but when I try to download the game to my iPad it says no purchases.  On the purchased tab on our app page the icon simply says open.

    Something is definitely going on. Purchased tab is missing on iTunes on iPad mini and iPhone. Can't see one Family member on App store and can't see any family members on iTunes on my iPad. Can't update apps because they were "bought by a different user......". These apps have been updated before. All was working perfectly yesterday.

  • I purchased a bunch of songs on my iPhone but they are not showing up on it my computer.

    I purchased a bunch of songs recently on my iPhone but they are not showing up in iTunes on my computer.  They have always shown up in the past but these few haven't. I usually do a manual upload and backup of my phone, as opposed to doing it via icloud.
    In the meantime, I went to the purchases for my account and see that they are listed there and I hit "report a problem".  But it doesn't even ask me what the problem is....
    Is there anything else I can do?

    Go to View->Account and verify you're logged into the same AppleID as the iPhone
    Then go to iTunes->Preferences->Store and verify that "Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases" is checked.

  • HT201272 I downloaded sveral ringtones and they are not showing up in my purchased items.   I had to wipe out my phone so they are not on there anymore.  Please, any advice would be appreciated!

    I recently had to wipe out my phone and lost everything!  I have been able to recover all apps, pics, songs.  Lost alot of my contacts due to me not backing up my info to icloud more often.  (my mistake)  However, I cant find any of my purchased ringtones.  They are not showing up in my purchase history on itunes either.  I do have the receipts for all of them tho.
    Any advice or info would be greatly appreciated!

    Ringtones are currently a one-time only download, they won't appear under the Purchased tab nor in the cloud. Have you got copies of them in the Tones section of your computer's iTunes library or in the backup of your downloads that you can use to re-sync them to your phone ? If not, 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 try selecting Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • HT203164 I have purchased several books on tape via my computer and now want to sync them to my ipod....I can't find the appropriate buttons to do that.  Also though I have receipts for books purchased they are not showing up on my Itune purchased list. 

    I have purcase several audio books via Itunes and they are on my computer however I have been unable to figure out how to transfer (sync??) them to my Ipod.  Also I have receipts for several Itune audio books but they are not showing up on my purchased list. Help!!!

    Open iBooks on the device and tap on 'purchased'. 
    download.
    iTunes does not garentee to carry a book forever, a serious flaw.  If you can't find the book in iTunes anymore and didn't keep it on the computer, or backed up, it may be gone.
    To add audio books to the iPod;
    you have to check the box at the bottom section of the Books screen that says, "sync audio books"

  • I have songs that have been purchased and they show up in my I tunes but the are not showing up bold like all other songs in my library, they will not let me download from the cloud and will not load onto my ipod.

    I have a handfull of songs in my library that are not showing up bold like the other songs. When I click the icon to download from the cloud nothing happens and they will not load onto my ipod. When I look for them in the purchased area they show up as purchased and downloaded.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    So far as I am aware, books haven't been available for 6 years, so I'm wondering if you mean audiobooks.
    Audiobooks are not currently part of the content that can be re-downloaded.

  • Songs I have purchased on iTunes are not showing up in my Purchased playlist but are in my iTunes library

    This has only been happening since updating my iPhone 5 to the new IOS 7.0.2  software and it has duplicated a new purchased playlist on my iTunes library. I have tried syncing the iPhone to my computer but still no luck they are not showing up in my purchased playlist.
    In saying that, some songs I purchase do show up in the playlist but others don't or only half of an album shows even though I have downloaded the whole thing. It is driving me crazy!! Has anyone else got this problem and what did they do to sort it?
    Thanks!

    Hi samfergs,
    I'm not sure how the Purchased Playlist decides what to put into it, but if you want to see all of your purchased items, then you need to go to the iTunes Store, and on the right side, under Quick Links, click on Purchased.
    Then, click on the Music (or whatever other purchased items tab you want to look at). If you are looking at Music, click on All Songs, and then on "All" or "Not on this Computer" (depending on what you want to see).
    Cheers,

    I purchased three autobooks from itunes last weekend and after updating my ios to 7 they no longer appear. I looked at my purchse history and they are not showing in my purchase history. I do have the receipts for the charge. How do I restore these?

    "I did make a full back up of my phone prior to updating the iOS"
    Itunes content is not incliuded in the backup that itunes performs.
    Audiobooks are not part of icloud and cannot be redownloaded.
    You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception.
