My purchases, such as movies and music, are not showing up on my new laptop even though its the same account

I just got a new laptop and recently downloaded itunes. I logged on to my apple account, and everything was right except none of the movies and songs I had bought before getting this laptop show up in the library. I authoried my computer with my apple account, but still nothing showed up. What is wrong and how can I fix this?

- You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
- If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.

If all the synced media like music is in the iTunes library of the second computer it is very easy.

  • HT1495 I have just purchased a second ipod and have 2 computers can i use one ipod on each computer with the same account. I have a different playlist on my second computer. Thanks,

    I have just purchased a second ipod and have two computers w7 and xp, can i use one on each computer with the same account. I have a different playlist on my second computer. Thanks.

    Sorry to ask, how do I do it please. I have my first ipod with the same account on both computers that have different libraries one of which I am building now. Do I have to de-authorise my original ipod on the computer that I want to use my new ipod on with the new library and then register my new ipod. I would rather do this than have 2 libraries on one itunes, but keep the same account details.

  • Some of the images are not showing up on my Blogger blog even though the HTML is there. They do show up in Opera.

    Here is the link to the blog post -
    http://happyholidays-blog.blogspot.com/2010/09/welcome-to-trick-or-treat-street.html
    Three days ago I went to a post from last year and an image was gone. The code was there but not the image.
    It doesn't get rid of all the images just certain ones and they are consistently gone. It is not a random deletion of images.
    I have had images not show up on other blogger sites.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.
    Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions<br />
    See [[Options window - Content panel]]
    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (<i>Site Identification</i> icon) on the left side of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Open the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • Contact photos are not showing up in Mail message list, even though the message will link to the contact card in Address Book with the photo in it.

    I'm using Mail 5.3 and Address Book 6.1.3 on X 10.7.5. I want my contact photos to show up in the message list on Mail, but only some of them do, even though the message will link to the contact card in Address Book with the photo in it. I've even tried replacing a photo that doesn't show up with a photo that does show up for a different contact but no luck. I am syncing to one other Mac, an iPhone and an iPad via iCloud.

  • Photos are not showing anymore in Photo Stream folder even though they are there.

    A couple of days ago my Photo Stream folder in iPhoto was suddenly empty. I checked and Photo Stream is switched on. I disabled it and switched it back on. Now You can see that Photo Stream is importing the images but when iPhoto is done, there are no photos in the folder. When taking a pic with my Mac it uploads as well into Photo Stream and shows up on my iPhone but in iPhoto Photo Stream still nothing.
    I tried manually adding pics but it tells me they are already there. Very strange.
    I also know that Photo Stream itself is working because it works to use Photo Stream as a screen saver and there all the pics show. So it must be a problem with iPhoto. I also did all the repair options for the Media Library that you can do when starting iPhoto. Nothing has changed the situation.
    Anyone any suggestions?

    Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
    and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
    Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

  • My purchased TV shows are on Apple TV, but my purchased Movies and Music is not, what gives?

    My purchased TV shows are visible on Apple TV, but my purchased Movies and Music are not, what gives?
    From Apple TV menu, I used to click on "Computer" and choose my laptop and I could watch TV, Movies, Photos, Music, whatever....
    but now the "Computer" button incorrectly tells me that Home Sharing is turned off (which it isn't) and I can't find my purchased movies anywhere.  Plus, it appears that I can't listen to music without iTunes Match which costs $25 a year...  any advice out there?

    I don't believe Apple is currently listing purchased movie content, like they do with TV episodes because of licensing restrictions.  Big Movies views that as a streaming service, and not purchased content, so it is licensed differently.
    As to your Home Sharing, there has been no change there.  You can still Home Share your videos, photos, music from your computer that has Home Sharing turned on.  Keep in mind iTunes needs to be running on that computer at the same time.
    Also, one in awhile my computer is on, but it does not show under Home Sharing on Apple TV. When this happens, I do a hard boot (unplug from power and plug back in) of the Apple TV, and also restart my computer.  Something happens once in awhile that it loses that connection. I haven't troubleshooted more than just doing a reboot.  Obviously there is a root cause, but it doesn't happen to me enough to worry about tracking it down.

    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.

  • Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install.

    Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install. Once I wrote my password, and for now on, everytime I start the session, another window advise me that "Java SE 6" is missing, due that, the computer can't run some "CS5Service Manager". If I try to install it, the download ends with an error. If finally, you skip the istallation, you arrive to the dock, but the menu bar at the top of the screen doesn't show up.
    In addition, my trackpad doesn't works either. I can move the arrow but i can't click anywhere, probably because the option of clicking by touching is disabeled and I can't performance a regular click.
    I'll be very glad if someone know what the heck is happening with my computer. Anyway, I'm going to the genius bar next Saturday. Thx!

  • I installed Firefox 4 and the Orange App button plus the reload and stop are not showing

    I installed Firefox 4 and the Orange App button plus the reload and stop are not showing.

    You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden, so you need to hide the Menu bar to get the new appearance.<br />
    If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or hold down the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.<br />
    You can also place the Tab Bar on top.
    * View > Toolbars : [ ] Menu Bar
    * View > Toolbars : [X] Tabs on Top
    Firefox 4 uses a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end of the location bar.<br />
    During the page load process it shows as a Stop button and after the loading has finished the button is changed to a Reload button.<br />
    If you type in the location bar then that button becomes a Go button.<br />
    You can middle-click that Reload button to duplicate the current tab to a new tab.
    To move the Stop and Reload buttons to their position to the left of the location bar you can use these steps:
    * Open the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window to move the Stop and Reload button out of the location bar.
    * Drag the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position to the left of the location bar.
    * Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
    * Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.
