Prior itunes purchases to new pc

I have a new pc and cannot see my prior itunes purchases. I had hundreds of tv shows purchased and thought I could import after account sign on. Is there anyway to access my prior purchases without having to copy off my other pc?

When you purchase something it is downloaded to the computer you are logged into at the time, purchases don't simply appear on every computer you choose to use.

No there's not. If you want to have your purchases on more than one computer you have to copy them from the computer they were purchased on. There are various methods to copy purchases between computers, CD-R, iPod, USB stick etc, you can read more at this link: iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between authorized computers

Restore my itunes purchases to new hard drive after crash

My hard drive on my dell crashed. I am replacing it with a new one, maybe should've gotten a MAC.
Will all of my Digital copies and purchased music from my itunes account come back to my new account once I sign on?
Please Help

Your content will only be where you put it. it does not magically appear anywhere.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just this occasion. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries.

Itunes purchases to new PC

ok my old laptop crashed, so I bought a new one, now im trying to get my music to open on itunes on my new laptop, but I cant figuar out how to get it, I was hoping it would be easy, but maybe im just not looking in the right spot, can anyone help me please?

Use the form on this page to request a free redownload, or use the Transfer Purchases feature if applicable. If neither of these works, you will need to purchase the content again to get them back; Apple needs to pay the copyright holders for each download from the iTunes Store other than podcasts, album artwork, and iPod touch/iPhone applications.

Itune purchases and New desk top

I hae just purchased a new desktop and have authorised it with I tunes. I can access my library of purchased songs but cannot play them. I tunes tells me it cannot locate these. I can still access and play them on my two Ipads and have synced these with the new desktop, all this does is list them again in the library. Still cannot play them. The new desktop is a Zoostorm running Windows 7

Transferring itunes purchases on new computer to iphone

I had to get a new computer. I purchased some new songs in itunes but now it won't allow me to transfer to my iphone - with error message that my iphone was synched to a different library. Interestingly enough, it would let me transfer to my ipod touch

The iphone will sync/manually manage with one and only one computer at a time. If you sync/manually manage with another, then it will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup of your old computer, to your new one.

HT204406 I havent used my ipod to purchase new music for approx 2 yrs. I have a new computer and I downloaded itunes purchased a new album but my ipod wont sync and download the new album what gives?

You will need to do it using a third-party utility such as Phone to PC. Also, see:

Getting old itunes purchases on new computer.

I have changed computers a couple of times and now i am wondering if i can still get music I have purchased some time ago back on my new computer. i aee the recoder of my purchases, but i don't see how to get them back. how hong can you get music you have purchased from the store?

You get only one download per purchase. So you'll need to copy the purchased from your old computer. If you have them on an iPod, you can also copy them back to iTunes from there; use the "transfer purchases from iPod" command under the iTunes File menu.

Retrieve itunes purchases for new authorized windows computers

I transfer my itunes library from an old windows to a new windows computer using a flash drive. can't synce my ipod on new computer because exclamations points showing up. How do I at least retrieve my previous purchased song for my new windows 7 computer

Hello, ted_marx38.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
The most common cause for this issue would be media present that is purchased with another Apple ID. When prompted to authorize the computer it may show a different Apple ID. If this is the case, the computer will need to be authorized for this Apple ID. The article below will walk you through the process of verifying if that is the case or correcting the issue if not.

HT1766 i had the iphone 4s 16g and backed it up to my laptop prior to purchasing a new iphone 5c 32g i never hooked it up to my computer since i bought it and i just did last night and it made it go back to what my iphone 4s was how do i fix this issue

help!!! i had an iphone4s and now a iphone 5c i need help restoring the new phone to what it had at last update.... i lost all my pics, any new contacts, texts, notes etc.
all apps i downloaded new are there, but everything else gone, someone said i need to restore to my icloud? but im not sure how to or what that will do? my phone is a 32g old phone was 16g, but this new iphone 5c is saying not enough memory but there is showing plenty.

It sounds like you have automatic sync turned on in iTunes. If you didn't back up your new phone, you're stuck with what you've got.
FIrst turn off auto sync in iTunes before you plug the phone in again: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12320
Then try to restore from an iCloud backup if you have that turned on: https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521

Trying to play old itunes purchases on new mac

I am trying to move my music over from my old Mac, but all of the songs I purchased through itunes will not play because"you already have authorized 5 computers with your apple id". When I go into my account on itunes store, it says I have 0 computers authorized. How can I deauthorize other computers when they aren't even recognized on my current mac?

Finding itunes purchases on new computer

My laptop was recently reformatted so I re-downloaded itunes, but I cannot find where to access the music I had previously bought on my old itunes. Is there a way I can retrieve it from my account?

If you want to have your purchases on more than one computer you have to copy them from the computer they are purchased on. When you purchase something it is downloaded to the computer you are logged into at the time, purchases don't simply appear on every computer you choose to use. Also you need to back up your music as you only get one download.
If you didn't make a back-up of your music/movie purchases before reformatting your computer to restore from (as you are advised to do) then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
"Products may only be downloaded once; after being downloaded, they cannot be replaced if lost for any reason. Once a Product is purchased or rented (as applicable) and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage" iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
If you have an iPod that still has any of your purchases on it you'll find details in this article on how to transfer them to the computer: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
Purchased applications can be downloaded over again, see this article for details: How to redownload purchased applications from the App Store
Failing this, you could try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on this link it'll take you to the support/contact page: Customer Service - iTunes Store Support

You're supposed to move it from the old computer or your backup. If that's not possible, click here and ask.
The hard drive might still be usable if the old computer isn't.

Have you authorised your iTunes account on that computer (this screenshot is from a Mac, but it should be similar if you are on a PC) :
