Purchased songs on iphone don't transfer

This issue is going on for long time but Ithink now I'm getting closer to the problem.  Basicaly from time to time some of my songs won't transfer to my iphone.  I think I'm able to reproduce now this issue.
1) Purchuse a song on the iphone from itunes store
2) Song will go to purchased playlist
3) Once the song shows up in itunes put it in a playlist that will sync with iphone
4) Sync iphone
now song is no longer on iphone.  When I check the number of songs on iphone vs what sync tab shows in itunes those numbers don't match (iphone is smaller by the number of songs that didn't sync).  However if i browse iphone music in itunes those songs show up but grayed out.  There is nothing I can do.  I rebooted itunes, signed out from itunes stores.  Anyone haviong same issue?

This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
This is a picture of what it looks like now:

As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
any way to get around that?

  • Purchased song from Iphone to iTunes on Computer

    I purchased a song on iTunes from my Iphone, and I would like to transfer that song to my computer. How is this done? Thanks

    It is automatically transferred to iTunes the next time you sync. To make it easier to find, iTunes will create a "Purchased on my iPhone" playlist which will contain your purchases. This playlist will be located in the left-hand column of iTunes, just under the iTunes Music Store.

  • Can only sync purchased songs to iPhone 5 running iOS 7

    I have an iPhone 5, on which I installed the iOS 7 GM a few days ago. Everything was fine, until this evening, when I went to play some music, and it disappeared. I noticed that most of my music would just disappear when I tried to play it: if you played an album, the Music app would flip through each track, seeming to delete it as it went by.
    I finally realized that these were only purchased (or iTunes Match-upgraded) tracks, ie tracks which contain my Apple ID.
    Match is not turned on on this iPhone, nor is music in the cloud.
    I restored the iPhone, downloading the official public release of iOS 7, and it's only syncing purchased songs. Of about 3,600 songs I have selected to sync, only about 430 are syncing.
    I see no logical reason for this to happen. There are no restrictions on, and there's no reason why the iPhone shouldn't accept non-purchased tracks. I'm scratching my head over this one. Any ideas?

    THis has happened to me. I went to the Genius Bar and they had no ideas - it could be my iMac, iTunes or the iPhone - which doesn't help
    any ideas before I get really frustrated?

  • Purchased songs on iPhone with ringtone options, not showing up as so

    I purchased some songs on iphone last night. This morning while looking at the same songs in the iTunes store these SAME songs from the SAME album show that there is an option to make them into ringtones. But when I synced the songs purchased on my phone to my itunes on my mac, the ringtone options are not showing up. I have the column checked to show ringtone availability on my itunes but the bell icon is not showing up in the column like it is in the iTunes store for these songs. Please Help.

    Right click on the song in your library and choose create ringtone. It will bring you to iTunes to make one. If it is not allowed, then not much I can say from there. I find the icons in ones own library are never accurate. Sort of like it scanned once, but won't again.

  • Songs deleting when Transferring purchased songs from iPhone to computer!

    When I transfer purchases from my iPhone to my laptop the process does not always seem to work. On a few occasions, it appears to have completed. But when I check iTunes on my computer the purchases are not there and try are also deleted from my iPhone! So I'm left with nothing. Does anyone know a way to restore purchased content to your iPhone?
    Thanks for your help!

    Update iTunes on your computer.
    On the iPhone, open up the iTunes app.  See Purchased at the bottom. Find your movies and you should be able to redownload for free.
    On the computer, get into the iTunes Store, in the top right column, it says Purchasd. Again, you should be able to download them.

  • Icannot play purchased songs on iPhone. was told to unsync and then re-sync.Where do I go to unsync?

    I cannot play my songs on iPhone. In trying, I'll choose a song, but another will show up, but will not play. I was told to unsync music purchased and then re-sync. How do I unsync? Thanks!

    Deselect Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync which will remove all music from your iPhone.
    Follow this by re-selecting Sync Music making your selections below followed by another sync.

  • Purchased song on Iphone

    Hi all
    I think I purchased the same track on itunes on my iphone twice and this appears twice on the Purchase section of my Playlist on my Iphone. However when I synced my iphone to Itunes you get the option to pick what play lists you want on your iphone, and you also get an option to check or uncheck the purchased music on your iphone. So what I did was I picked the songs i wanted, in my play list on itunes but on my iphone it still shows the 2 songs i purchased via my phone on itunes. Is this because i purchased it on my iphone and it will still show on my iphone despite, me not picking the song on itunes itself on my mac?
    IF it is, how do i get rid of the duplicate purchased song on my iphone when i have not got it checked in my play list on itunes?
    sorry if the above sounds confusing, but hope someone can help.
    thank you

    No, you cannot redownload the song. You can redownload apps, but not music.
    If you contact iTunes Store Help, they may help you out (there's an contact link at the bottom):

  • Can't put newly purchased songs onto iPhone! Plz help!

    My mom just got a new iPhone and we set up iTunes and downloaded the new version like it asked. We set up a new iTunes account and we downloaded some songs to break the new iPhone in, we downloaded them under her id and account. I have an iPod and already use iTunes but i logged out of mine to dl the songs for her. Sooooo.., now, when i try to drag the newly purchased songs to the iPhone or even the library, it won't allow me. My library still shows up in iTunes.....Can someone please help us!

    Sorry - that works, but I think you still have to go into the Music tab and click the box to sync music in the first place. Select your iPhone in the left hand list to see these tabs.
    Then, you can choose to sync certain playlists to keep the size manageable.
    It's not necessary to check the boxes on the music files themselves, or check the box on the front tab that says sync checked items only. That's (as you've found) basically just extra work.
    Ask if you've still got more questions,

  • Can't purchase songs because I don't have my security questions

    I have been trying to purchase songs on my iTunes and it will not let me because I do not have my security question answers. I have tried multiple times to reset them and I haven't received my email. I checked my spam, I checked other emails and I have not received anything.  This has happened multiple times. Does anyone know how to receive the email to get the security questions either reset, or the answers sent to me?

    If you aren't receiving the reset email to your rescue email account then you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.

  • Can i use apps that i purchased on my iphone 4 and transfer to macbook air?

    how do i tranfer purchased apps from my iphone 4 to my macbook air

    I would recommend updating iTunes to v11 if you havent done so.
    On previous versions (if I recall correctly), it was simply File>Transfer Purchases from "example's iPhone" or Right clicking on the device from the side bar.

  • Purchased app from iPhone won't transfer to iTunes

    I purchased an app on my iPhone and now every time I sync, it starts off with:
    Transferring purchases from "iPhone", Copying (app)
    The progress bar get about 10% and then it moves on to the next task such as installing new apps or syncing contacts. It does this EVERY TIME. I go to File->Transfer Purchases and it says the same thing above, hits 10%, and stops. I never get an error message. The app doesn't show up on my "Applications" in the library nor does it show on the "Applications" tab for manual syncing. I can't re-download the app via iTunes because iTunes doesn't realized I purchased it and wants to charge me again.
    My phone is not Jailbroken and I'm running 2.0.2, although I have been getting many 0xE800002E errors lately and have had to sync apps manually for a while and I'm afraid of losing my purchased app should I ever have to do a wipe and restore.

    My wife just received an email from Apple Tech Support. Please see excerpt below:
    +"Because you have already purchased "Texas Hold'em", you may download it+
    +again at no charge, either from your device or using iTunes on your+
    computer.
    +Be sure that you are signed in to the same iTunes Store account that you+
    +used to purchase the application originally, and follow the steps to+
    +purchase it again. You will be notified that you have already purchased the+
    +item and can download it again for free."+
    So... she went to download it again from iTunes. At first it didn't recognize that she had already purchased it, but by the confirmation stage it did state that she already purchased it and gave the option to download again at not charge. She went ahead and did this for Texas Hold Em and several other apps that she purchased originally from her phone. All is now in sync on both her iTunes and iPhone.
    I'm assuming this is a bug that will probably get corrected in a future release.

  • How do I remove a previously purchased song from iPhone music

    I have removed the song from my iTunes purchased list on my mac, however it still shows up in my songs list on my iPhone withthe down load cloud icon. It still plays as if in the library when connected. There =does not seem to be a way to remove it. Swiping from right to left does not work to remove.

    You can hide your iCloud Purchases, so they will not show any longer:
