Purchased music does not show in itunes. Only the artists

I purchased a couple albums on my iPhone. It shows the artist in the iTunes store and that there are 22 items, but it does not show the music for me to download it to my library.

Depending upon what country that you are in you might be able to redownload the albums via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your PC's iTunes, or on the current version of iTunes you can access the Purchased section by clicking on your name towards the top right of the iTunes screen and then Purchased on the popup
If they show there then click on the cloud icons on them to download them

My purchased music does not show in iTunes on my new mac

I recently purchased a new MacBook Pro. The iTunes library was transferred over by the Apple store employees, but my purchased music does not show. How can I get my purchased music to show in iTunes? (I previously had a Windows PC). Thank you!

The 'Purchased' music is just a special Playlist. You can create your own and drag the links into the 'Purchased' PL.
Using the command CMD-J you can add the Purchase date to your list view - sort by date - drag the tunes to the 'Purchased' PL.

Ipod music does not show in Itunes

Hello! I am new to the forum and was hoping someone could provide some advise please. I previously used Windows with my Ipod - they were synced. I have since purchased a Macbook Pro. My previous Itunes playlist (windows) is on the Ipod, but no longer on my current Itunes (macbook). I want to play music from my Ipod on my Mac and possible transfer music from the Ipod to the Mac. I have ticked 'manually manage', when I plug in the Ipod, however, it does not show any music Ipod content on Itunes. Am I missing something basic? Thank you so much.

Hi...
possible transfer music from the Ipod to the Mac.
First, if you have not done so, launch iTunes on your Mac. From the iTunes menu bar top of your screen click Store > Authorize This Computer.
Now connect the iPod.
Now from the menu bar again click File > Transfer Purchases from ...
For "non" iTunes purchases you may need to use a third party utility.

TS2753 a purchased song does not show my name on the info

I purchased a song thru I-tunes and I cannot get it to play. If I look at the info, it does not show who it was purchased by. All of my other songs do and they play fine.

Purchased music does not appear in iTunes

I had to reinstall OS X on my computer, and when I updated iTunes, none of my purchased music was there. That goes for a credit balance I have also. When I check the info for my account, some previously purchased music is there, but not the most recent and the credit balance is still missing. Have any ideas what I should do to correct this? Thanks.

If you think all the music is there, you can sync to the ipod.
The purchased playlist is a smart playlist. Since you re-added the music to itunes, it just doesn't show them in the purchase playlist, but they are porbably still in the main itunes library.
You can make 2 smart playlists to find the files
Kind contains purchased (this will show itunes plus content)
Kind contains protected (this will show non-itunes plus content)

How do I delete unwanted music from an iPhone 4 that does not show in iTunes on the computer?

How do I delete songs from my iPhone that is not showing up in my iTunes library on my laptop? The songs appear to be from iCloud. I sync to my laptop. Show All music is off. iTunes Match is off.

Hi Lancefromgoldcoast,
When you hook up your device and click on it, to the right you will see the Device Profile Screens with tabs like Summary, Info, Music, Photos, etc. Click on the Photos tab. There you will see the boxes that you select to sync (or not sync) your music. To turn off the Music sync, make sure the "Sync Music" box is not checked.
Cheers,

How to use multiple iDevices with one computer

I can't restore it... i deleted all of my music in the library.
i have no idea how to copy the music into the com.......................... please help.

If your iPod is being recognised by Windows you could try this manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted here: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. Again if Windows is recognising the iPod these may too.

Music does not appear in iTunes after consolidation and xfer to E drive

I followed the instructions listed on the web site for xfer of the music to an external hard drive. After I did the consolidate portion, the music did not show/appear in the e drive folder created for the music. The music does not show in iTunes now. I have not deleted anything since I can't see music in the e drive folder.
I am currently copying the music from the older folder to the newer folder to see if this helps.
Where does the consolidated music go?
Can it be shown in iTunes at all now that it has been consolidated?
Will pod sync now since music does not appear in iTunes?
Any help or information would really be appreciated.
Thanks!

Rather than move individual files you might want to move the whole collection:
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

I have a Ipod touch and recently added new music to my itunes library on my laptop. When I sync with my ipod, the new music does not show up on my ipod even though the sync process seems to be working.

I have an Ipod touch and recently added new music to my Itunes library. When I sync with the library, the new music does not show up on my ipod. The sync process seems to be working and there is still plenty of space on the Ipod for new music so I'm not sure what the problem is!

What happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs?
