Purchase showing up in iStore, but not iTunes...

I've downloaded a song from iTunes on my computer; it's showing up as a purchase on the iStore, but not in purchases on iTunes, so I can't put it on my device. What the **** is wrong with it, and for the love of god, how do I fix it?
Thanks!
(my iTunes is old, by the way... I haven't updated it since the iOS came in, because my iTouch is a senior citizen)

  • Ipod showes up on windows but not itunes

    I am having trouble getting my ipod synced back up with itunes. I have tried everything as far as uninstalling itunes and bonjour and all the others.I also tried updating drivers and a few other suggestions from tech support. I brought my ipod to a friends house and it showed up on his computer. So we tried to see if his ipod would show up on my itunes and it did. Also windows recognizes the ipod but something is keeping the itunes software on my computer from connecting to my ipod touch. Does anyone know why this might be happening? I have tried several places and everyone seems to be stumped.

  • Albums showing up in phone but not itunes

    Years ago when is till have my iphone 4 I purchased several albums from itunes which has been saved into icloud. When i got my 5S I was able to download the albums from icloud to the new phone.
    Problem I am having now is that the albums arent showing up in itunes when i sync it with the computer, nor does it show in purchases (which everything was purchased the came account). I need to get these albums off my phone.
    I hate itunes complicated ways to store music. Nothing ever works like it should. It should be EASY for me to drag and drop items to my phone and remove them but apple makes it so hard!!! 

    Hello there, SilverStarWing.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great recommendations for downloading past iTunes Store purchases:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    One important thing to keep in mind, if the content is not available in the iTunes Store any longer, it won't be available to download.
    Additionally, this article goes over transferring content from your iOS device to your computer as well:

  • Can't Permanently My Apps.  Shows in App Store but not iTunes.

    There are a couple of apps that are in my Purchased "Not on this phone" section. I deleted "yes, I've tried reinstalling it" the apps from my phone but as I connect it to my computer, it is no where to be found in the App section of my iTunes.  I've synced it multiple times but will not show on my iTunes for me to permanently delete. Other apps aren't an issue. Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

  • Ipod nano shows in my computer but not ITunes

    I have a windows xp and I have some Ipod 4s that i want to reset them and sell them. Whenever I connect either of the 3 of them, they all go on a dim screen that says 'do not dissconnect' and I can't do anything on them. If i go to my computer and eject them then I can go through the ipod but it still won't show up in ITunes. It will charge fine, that is no problem, I just can't get it to show up on itunes... Help please!

    Hello, friend. You may try these steps.
    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

  • IPod shows up in Finder but not itunes - Have already tried suggestions

    I have a 30gb ipod video & am using a Macbook
    I wanted to get files off my ipod that werent in my itunes so I downloaded yamipod. This worked for a bit then stopped working so I deleted the program.
    Now when i plug my ipod into my computer it shows up in finder and says 'do not disconnect' on screen but doesn't appear in itunes. I reset the ipod, re-downloaded itunes but no luck. I would have restored it but you can't do this if it won't show up in itunes (which makes no sense!)
    So I plugged my ipod into my flatmates PC (using the same usb cable) and it showed up in their itunes just fine. Then it said that there was an update for my ipod, so i downloaded it. And it said there were faults or something on my ipod & it would fix them, so i clicked ok.
    After these things it said my ipod would restart and should reappear in itunes. It restarted but now will not show up in their itunes.
    Now when I plug my ipod into my mac again itunes jumps to the front of screen, as if it knows there is something there, but it just wont show up.
    I have looked through all sorts of discussions & can't find the answer. Please help.

    I'm having exactly the same problem with my 60GB 5G iPod Video. This happened "spontaneously" in that I did nothing I know of to affect my iPod's connection to my iTunes library. My iPhone still syncs fine with the same cable.

  • New Workaround: Nano's showing in Windows Explorer but not iTunes

    Just tried it, since I've tried everything else so I thought I would share with everyone else.
    I had a Nano that would not be detected in iTunes 7, but it would show in Windows Explorer as a Removable Drive.
    1. Disconnect iPod, close iTunes 7.
    2. Access Windows Task Manager --> (CTRLALTDEL)
    3. End "iPodService.exe" Process
    4. Reconnect iPod via USB
    5. Restart iTunes.
    What I found was that when iTunes opens it restarts the Ipod service and will detect the unit in iTunes.
    You may have to do this everytime you want to hook up your iPod until a fix comes.
    But hey it works.
    P4 3.0 Windows XP Pro
    P4 3.0   Windows XP Pro  

    Check to see if the Nano is enable for disk use. If it is, disable it. For whatever reason ITunes gives me problems when I leave both my iPod enable for disk use. Only one of them appears. When I Unchecked the disk use, the problem has gone away.

  • Artwork showing in Podcast App but not iTunes Store

    I updated my podcast art recently as I've had a site redesign, and typically now, the podcast artwork is not showing up in the iTunes Store. What's peculiar however is that if I subscribe to one of the podcasts in the iOS Podcast App, the artwork shows up no problem. This leads me to believe that the feeds are working fine, therefore I can't see the issue?
    The affected feeds are http://dyhamb.com/rss_itunes.php, /rss_too.php, /rss_tcr.php and /rss_asf.php. Anybody have any ideas?

    I checked the first URL - you have an image correctly referenced in the feed and present on the server. The Store can sometimes be quite slow to show images so I'm afraid it's just a question of waiting.

  • PLEASE HELP - Ipod Showing In My Comp But Not Itunes Etc

    Hi there
    Can someone PLEASE help me! I am at my wits end with my Ipod.
    A few weeks ago I was in the middle of listening to a song and my ipod crashed then switched itself off. Ever since then I haven't been able to get it to connect to Itunes or the Updater and it won't play anything.
    When I switch the ipod on I get various errors ranging from the unhappy ipod to the folder with the exclamation mark.
    When I connect my ipod to my pc an autoplay window appears and sometimes I get an error saying the drive my ipod is connected to isn't formatted.
    So far I have tried the following
    Reinstalled Itunes
    Going into Disk Management and changing the Drive the ipod uses
    Reset The Ipod
    Tried Using Another USB Port
    Put the Ipod Into Disk Mode
    Nothing Works! After I changed the drive the ipod uses things looked promising. The Ipod was detected by the updater and it was started to restore the ipod however after a few minutes the ipod seemed to lose the connection and I got the error with the Battery icon.
    Can someone please help me!

    "my dad pressed view and then he chose the 3rd picture thing and songs went into."
    Sorry, I don't know what that means.
    Have you had a chance to look through these?
    USB drivers are not installed properly or are out of date.

  • IPod Showing up in Windows but not iTunes FIXED

    Try this, it worked for me:
    Go to Device Manager (right-click My Computer, click Properties, go to Hardware tab, click Device Manager.)
    Expand Disk Drives
    Double-click on "Apple Computer_Inc. iPod" etc.
    Go to Policies and change it to "Optimize for performance".
    Does this work for you too?
