Previous purchase is gone?

About 4 years ago I bought The soundtrack to The Motorcycle Diaries.  I go to my library and notice that I only have 7 of the songs.  I figure I'll just go on and download them (something that's really great that I noticed possible on my iPad).  Then in searching how to do this I discover that it's no longer on my list of purchases in iTunes. 
I "showed in finder" one of the 7 tracks that were still in my library and lo and behold there is the rest of the album on my hard drive. 
I know you may jump to conclusions and say that I must've downloaded it, but rest assured I did not.  I remember this was one of the first purchases I ever made on iTunes because the soundtrack is SUPERB and I wanted to show whatever support I could to Mr. Santaolalla. 
Is there precedent for this happening? I've been meaning to buy the physical (I know 4 years @_@).  There was another local band called "Band Marino" that might have been the actual first purchase I made on iTunes and he's gone too.  They were kind of annoying TBH so I don't mourne it's loss from my purchase history. 
What can I do?

Find Top Stylist in the App Store.  You should find a link to the developer's website there.  If not, you can probably write a review and explain the problem.

  • HT201365 Why are my previously purchased apps gone

    No apps after update

    Hi Shield13,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you don't see previously purchased apps on your phone, be sure you're signed into the correct iTunes Store account:

  • Restore previous purchases

    Before I synced my phone with iOS5, itunes said that my phone was being backed up. However, when iOS5 was done downloading, all my previous purchases were gone. Only my contacts and pictures were kept, how do I get all the music and videos back?

    You can download previously purchased apps and music using iTunes in the cloud.
    On your computer you would go to the iTunes Store, then Purchased and from there you can download them again free of charge.
    On your iOS device just go to the iTunes store, and then Purchased for music and the App Store>Updates>Purchased for apps.

  • I just installed ios7 on my iPhone 4s.  It seems to be working fine but all of the apps I had previously installed are gone.  They show up in my app store as purchased, but the shortcuts are gone.  Does anyone know how to get the shortcuts back?  Thanks!

    I updated via my iPhone 4s.  The apps were on my iPhone 4s.  That's all the information that I have.  The update to ios7 seems to have gone smoothly - everything else is working, phone texting, email, internet, etc.  But all of the apps I had installed over the past year are no longer showing up as shortcuts.  No facebook, no twitter, no espn, etc.  They are all still listed in my app store as purchased, but the shortcuts and my folders are gone.  Thanks.

  • HT203167 all my previously purchased apps are gone.

    I changed my apple id to my new email address and now when I go into "purchased" in iTunes, all my previously purchased apps are gone. And I can't download my previous purchased apps

    yes, I just CHANGED the primary email.. and not the whole account...
    in the settings
    EDIT YOUR APPLE ID>>
    Name,ID,Email Address>>Apple ID and Primary Email Address>>
    EDIT PRIMARY EMAIL ADDRESS>>SAVE CHANGES
    and I clearly remembered that I did not make a new account.

  • Hi, I recently left my computer on my car and drove into heavy traffic.  After several hundred cars ran it over, I noted than I was unable to access my previously purchased copy of Photoshop Elements 10.  How can I download a replacement copy?

    It's true.  I was loaded down like a mule, approaching my car, needing a free hand, and thinking "I'll just set this on the roof for a moment..."
    I drove about 1/2 mile and turned left into rush-hour traffic.  No sound, no horns, no frantic hand gestures from fellow drivers, and no sinking feeling whatsoever for several minutes.  And then like that sudden stop at the end of long fall, it hit me.  I quickly turned around as though haste may matter - and it did.  Had five more minutes passed, there'd have been nothing larger than a grain-of-sand-sized evidence that my computer had once existed.  For the next 30 minutes, I dodged many hundreds of cars in my firm commitment to gather every last one of the 2,653 pieces that I would need for a successful reassembling.
    At some point during my repair attempt, I noted that I was unable to access my previously purchased copies of Photoshop Elements 10 and Premiere Elements 10.
    And since Dell.com's record of this purchase was apparently destroyed that day as well, I'm at a loss.  Unless... "Ok, maybe I actually registered this purchase at Adobe.com...  But that would be weird as I never do such things in the name of maintaining privacy at every chance I encounter... But, I'll try... yep, 'Forgot your password,' Click... of, 'Follow this link,' Click... Minor rush that it might work... Hope fading fast... Gone!"
    When the only proof of purchase I can present is my promise that I did once purchase, is it possible for me to download these two programs without having to re-purchase?
    I lost a lot of things that day... money, work, memories, la la la.  Apparently I've now lost my dignity as well as I plead with some faceless corporation for a freebie.
    Does anyone at Adobe have a heart?  If so, I would invest my gratitude towards your benefit for the remainder of my years.

  • How do I sync my iPad with a new iTunes library without erasing all the previously purchased apps & data on my iPad?

    I'm sure this is a common issue, and I've google-searched for solutions but I cannot find a straight forward answer anywhere. I really hope an expert here can help me out.
    I purchased an iPad last year and synced it with my iTunes library on my old PC laptop. Well, my PC laptop harddrive crashed last week and I cannot access anything on my laptop anymore. I did not make a back-up for my PC harddrive either. I know, next time I should make a back-up and I will. But that's irrelevant. The PC is gone now.
    I replaced my PC this week with a brand new Mac Book Pro. Excited about my new purchase, I quickly hooked up my iPad with the hopes of easily transferring and accessing my iPages, iNumbers, and other productivity iPad apps seamlessly to my new beautiful Mac Book Pro. But now I've run into the nightmarish dilemma of not being able to sync my beloved Ipad with my new MAC without getting the warning that basically says "your iPad is already synced with another iTunes Library. You may only sync to one iTunes Library at a time. You will lose all your data if you sync to this new computer."
    Can someone give me a straightfoward answer as to how I can sync my iPad with my new iTunes Library on my new Mac Book Pro without losing any of the apps that I previously purchased? I want to be able to access the apps I downloaded on my iPad on my Mac Book Pro.
    Thanks so much!!!!!!

    While it isn't as easy to just use a Mac iDevice as media storage as Android and Windows, you can add documents and such like Word, PDF and others manually in iTunes to have them sync as well.

  • Why can't i see my movies in "Previous Purchases"  I bought the movie 6 months ago and just recently watched it- i had to restore my ipod and my computer becasue the both broke. now i can't see any movies, only apps, songs, books, and tv shows.

    OK i will explain my whol situation.
    My computers hard drive broke, so i had to get a new one.
    My itunes from the hard drive is gone now.
    MY ipod was disable to the point where you must plug it into the same itunes on the same computer it was last synced on.
    i had to restore my ipod.
    i re downloaded itunes.
    i got into my account.
    i re downloaded all songs, apps, books, tv shows, and pod casts.
    IT WON"T SHOW ME MY MOVIES.
    i looked in my purchase history so i know i bought it.
    i went back to "Previous Purchases"
    it still doesn't give me a category for movies.
    i really need to get that movie back because it was 9.99 and i refuse to let my money go to waste!
    Please Help!

    Films can currently only be downloaded once from the store, which I think is a requirement from the film distributors, so they won't show in the Purchased section for re-downloading. Have you not got a backup of it on, for example, an external drive or CD/DVD ?

  • "There is a problem with a family member's previous purchase"

    I keep getting an error message saying "There is a problem with a family member's previous purchase.  Ask the family organizer to update their billing information."
    I AM the family organizer.
    I recently had to get a new debit card.   When I updated the debit card information - I've received this message ever since.  I've gone back in and updated the information twice after to make sure it is correct and it is.  Yet I continue to get the error message.
    I can't purchase or update any apps and can't purchase music or movies, etc. 
    And it really aggravates that Apple wants me to pay to get support on how to PAY them.  Argh..  
    Anyone know how to fix this?

    I had the exact same problem.  I cancelled a credit card that was used as my iTunes registered card.  Even though I'm the family organizer, I was not able to update my credit card info to my new card:  I received the annoying "Ask your family organizer to update their billing info" message. After spending 45 mins on the phone with Apple Support, they found the problem.  There was a pending credit card charge that my wife had made on her phone that needed to be paid before any changes could be made to the account.  The problem was that she was unable to provide credit card details as long as I was the family organizer and I was unable to provide credit card details as long as she had an outstanding balance.
    The solution suggested by Apple was for my wife to leave family sharing temporarily, update the credit card info to pay the outstanding balance and then re-join the family.  This worked.  The downside is that there is an annual limit on how many times (2?) that you can join a family so this workaround is clearly not a sustainable solution.  Apple needs to fix this bug in their payment system to (1) make the error message describe what is happening and (2) provide a way of updating credit card details without having to leave the family.

  • Why is the movie I've previously purchase no longer in my itunes?

    I previously purchased/downloaded a movie from itunes and now going through my purchased movies, it is no longer on my itunes. I've also gone through my purchase history to see that I had in fact bought it. How do I redownload the movie without having to pay for it again?

    If it's available through the iCloud, click here and follow the instructions. If not, click here and ask the iTunes Store staff if they'll allow it.

  • I have previously purchased songs that I can no longer download

    I Have songs that we're working fine on my iPhone up until the last sync.  When I went to try and download them again they are greyed out.  Also parts of  another album are missing., 3 songs, and they are also greyed out.  I then went in and was going to buy the songs again, but the store shows them as already being purchased.   I don't know if it matters but this seems to be happening with only Beyonce albums which seems strange.   also, I have manually gone into my iTunes library and the files are gone.

  • Why do my previous purchases show in my iTunes music library but not accessible??, Why do my previous purchases show in my iTunes music library but not accessible??

    I received my new Macbook Pro today and have attempted to sync my iphone 4s with it, unfortunately like a bit of a moron I've ended up wiping all my music on my iphone.
    I have then gone into Itunes and re-downloaded all my previous purchases (music tracks). They have all appeared in my music library but all but 4 are greyed out, will not play and will not allow me to do anything with them!
    Can anyone help me, help the Mac newby sort his life out! I'd be lost without them and more to the point would have lost a fortune in music I'd paid for if I couldn't get them back!!
    Cheers,
    Chris

  • CANT UPDATE PAYMENT INFO WITH PREVIOUS PURCHASED!!!

    hi, i wanna ask you, why i cant update apps? they said that i owe apple for previous purchased. i think that i already pay the apps. please help me! and i cant update my payment info, i cant put it to none!!!!

    Not sure if this helps .. but it appears that whenever Adobe's payment processing backend has some internal issues, it puts the subscribers into some  HELL. The only way I found it to be working is - call the customer support from your country, and speak to a CSE.
    The same incident happened to me this month. Subscription failed warnings, and Email alerts. I logged into my account, but could not update credit card details. When I tried adding another card, it throwed errors. So I called the local Adobe Customer support, and gone through the painful IVR thing. But at the end I was able to reach a CSE and he helped in fixing the issue.
    The Solution:
    Call Adobe Customer Support.
    For your country specific support numbers check this page:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/customer-alert-2.html
    PS : It is pathetic that Adobe's payment processing is not upto the quality, and recent breaches has made the life of subscribers bad. I really love those old Retail boxes. I never had any billing issues.

  • When you download previously purchased music to the cloud does it cost anything??, When you download previously purchased music to the cloud does it cost anything??

    My computer just crashed tonight and I am trying to get my previously purchased music onto my new laptop but it keeps asking for my payment info like I am trying to make another purchase... Shouldn't I get it for free since I already paid for it?? I dont know if they are asking just because or if they are gonna charge me. I dont wanna go further until I know because that would be a large purchase and I am already out quite a bit of money today.
    Thanks,
    Mandy

    Currently music purchases can only be re-downloaded for free if you are in the US (re-downloading). If you are not in the US then you will need to buy them again if you want to re-download them - in which case have you not got a backup of your purchases on, for example, external drives or CDs/DVDs ?
