"not on this ipod" missing from ios 6

Did iPod Touch 4th gen really lose the ability to download previously purchased songs from the Purchased > Not on this iPod screen?
The screen is just gone now. in IOS 5 there was a Purchased button at the bottom of the ios iTunes app, now the only Purchased option is really just a shortcut to the playlist named Purchased.
Even with the redesign of the core apps in ios 6 this seems like an oversight compared to ios 5.
There are a lot of songs I've purchased from iTunes that I have not downloaded to my 4th gen ipod Touch, but having the option to do that was great - and was a desperately needed feature before it came along.
The screen doesn't appear to have been moved or merged into anywhere else. it's just gone.
sad
maybe 6.01 will fix?

Ok, so the option is there in ios 6. It's been so long I think I forgot I had customized the taskbar icons in ios5 and they got reset to default in ios 6. It's not available on the task bar by default, but listed under the More menu. you can customize your task bar menu to include "Purchased" instead of TV Shows or Movies (iPod 4th gen limits you to 4 task bar icons, perhaps new iphone and itouch support itunes in widescreen now (like the ipad) and allow you more than 4 icons...?
IOS 5 : iTunes > Music > Purchased > select "Not on This iPod".
IOS 6 : iTunes > More > Purchased > Music > select "Not on This iPod".
the tricky thing is that Purchased was not displayed under the More menu by default.
to enable it: iTunes > More > Edit > from the Configure screen, drag the Purchased icon down to the taskbar over TV  Shows to add Purchased to the taskbar and automatically move TV Shows up out of the way to the More screen.
Then press Done, select Purchased from the newly updated taskbar > Music > Not on This iPod.
Phew. I knew it had to be there. After all, Apple would be working backwards away from the post PC scheme by disabling content cloud features.

    Hi there skmonirul,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    From what I gather, iMessages are taking longer than expected to send on your iPhone 4s. If you aren’t seeing issues with other apps, try restarting your iPhone as shown here: 
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    If the issue persists, try restoring your iPhone as shown in the article below.

    We'd better check on that, kris. If you enable iTunes in your Windows firewall, does that help with your connection? See the following document for instructions:

    I am trying to update ipod touch from ios 4.3.2 to ios 6.1.3.  I have it connected to my computer, and the summary in itunes indicates the update is available.  However, when I click "update", it opens Windows Explorer and waits for a file name to open.

    I am not at that computer now, but I did check via windows update & with the check updates menu choice in the itunes program  - neither indicated a newer version of itunes is available. (it is a vista computer).
    The itunes software on the computer displays my ipod & the current ios (4.3.2), and indicates a newer ios is available (6.1.3). When I choose "update", I am taken to Windows Exploer and prompted to choose a file to open. it is as if the "update" button has the incorrect code attached to it.
    The ipod is working, but there are several app I would like to install, but I can't with the current ooperating system.

  • I have the new iOS 6.1.2 on my iPad.  My wifi connects to my home network but keeps dropping it and won't reconnect.  Did not have this problem with previous iOS.

    I have the new iOS 6.1.2 on my iPad.  My wifi connects to my home network but keeps dropping it and won't reconnect.  Did not have this problem with previous iOS.  Apple, you have a quality assurance issue.  Don't be like Microsoft where they send out pieces of junk with testing it.

    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    How do I upgrade my iPOD Touch from iOS 4.2.1 to 5?  I've reset it, erased it, but still won't install iOS5.

    You most likely have a 2G iPod touch which cannot go beyond iOS 4.2.1.  If it is an 8gb or 16 gb iPod without a camera, it is a 2G iPod.

    Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the data.

  • Lost my music in iTunes. . .but not on the iPod or from the HDD

    Recently, I installed a separate physical HDD into my PC which will be dedicated to my iTunes/iPod content. When I did this I navigated within iTunes to Edit/Preferences/<Advanced> tab/"iTunes Music Folder location" and changed the path to the new volume that I had for the dedicated HDD (F:/iTunes/iTunes Music). After a week or so of this seemingly working properly, I then felt safe to delete the iTunes Music folder that I had on my C:/ drive within My Documents/My Music/iTunes.
    Today, when I launched iTunes, all the music that I had ripped from my Cd collection plus the few downloads that I purchased were gone from my music library within the application and I got the following message. . .
    The iPod is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPod and sync with this iTunes library?
    An iPod can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and synching replaces the contents of this iPod with the contents of this iTunes library.
    The good news is that all of my data is still on the iPod and the physical HDD. When I got this message and selected <Transfer Purchases> I got back into the application's Music Library the 5 or so songs that I have bought from iTunes. I still do not have the 700 or so songs that I ripped from my CD's in the application Music Library however and I am still getting this message along with an option to "Erase and Sync", which sounds like something thatI do not want to do. The iPod is now intact and disconnected from my PC.
    The iTunes folder on my C: drive still has an <iTunes Music Library.xml> file along with an <iTunes Library.itl> file. Could this be causing the confusion?
    Also within Edit/Preferences/<Advanced> tab/"iTunes Music Folder location", the options for <Keep iTunes Music Folder organized> and <Copy Files to iTunes Music Folder When Adding To Library> are both unchecked. Things were working fine I guess with it that way but it sounds to me that I should have those checked?
    I need some advice it seems. Does anyone know what the heck is happening here?

  • App Store is missing from iOS 7

    iTunes, App Store, and camera are all missing from my newly updated ios7 iPad.

    If you can't find them on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find them via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then are they hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps, iTunes and Camera being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find them after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
