Recent purchase playlist?

Perhaps someone can shed some light on my situation.  I do not have a" recent purchase" playlist on my Itunes homepage.  I have a purchased playlist but it seems to me I once had recent purchased playlist also.  Am I mistaken?  If I'm not mistaken how do I get back the playlist?  I have the latest version of
Itunes/

It is easy enough to make a new one.  File > New > Smart Playlist, and just add two rules as shown:

  • Most Recent Purchased Playlist- How to?

    Hey gang-
    In iTunes on my desktop iMac, my main Music pane is organized by "Date Added", with most recently purchased music at the top.   I purchase my music almost daily from the iTunes store, but almost equally from my iPhone, iPad, and iMac.   
    My question is, how do I sort the music on my iPhone the same way I do on my iMac?  i.e. by date purchased, and with the most recent at top?  I'm referring to all purchased music- not just that purchased on my iPhone.  I've tried in both the Music and iTunes apps on my iPhone, but there doesn't seem to be any way to sort by date purchased.   By Artist, Song, or Album yes, but not by date purchased as I do in iTunes on my iMac.
    Any good way to do this?  I know I could create a Playlist on my Mac and sync each time I buy music, but all I want to do is sort the music that is already on my iPhone by date purchased- that really shouldn't require a playlist and syncing.
    Thanks for any tips!
    Dave

    You delete the same way as IOS 5.  I have no issue deleting music with IOS 6 by swiping left to right to delete.

  • Second post: uploaded new itunes, lost some recently purchased music.

    I can't seem to even find it on my hard drive under the itunes folder. Coupled with the fact that we don't have any of our playlists, including the recently purchased playlist.

  • I recently purchased a new PC. I had backed-up my old computer on Carbonite, so I was able to transfer my iTunes library to the new computer when I downloaded my info from Carbonite. Is there a way to restore my playlists?

    I recently purchased a new PC. I had backed-up my old computer on Carbonite, so I was able to transfer my iTunes library to the new computer when I downloaded my info from Carbonite, but the playlists are gone. Is there a way to restore my playlists?
    Most of my playlists are on my iPod. If I use my iPod to transfer, will the songs double in my library? Also, how do I do this?
    Thank you for any & all info you can provide!
    Julie

    If you had backed up and restored your library properly you should have ended up with the playlists too. Did you import the media folder from the backup drive into a new library rather than restoring the entire iTunes folder?

  • Recently purchased song and another I transfered into my ITunes library vannot be set up in a playlist.I get the message"file cannot be located".Originally I could listen to the purchased song but now that will no longer play.What do I need to do to ?

    Recently purchased a song from ITunes and another that I downloaded from a CD will not transfer to a playlist and will not even allow me to listen to the songs.I get the message "file cannot be located"What can I do to get my system to locate the file?Originally I could play the songs from my desktop and I was able to transfer to my IPad.

    Because the location for each song in your library is on your hard drive.  If the hard drive isn't there, how can iTunes play it?
    You'll have to move/copy the music from your hard drive to your computer's hard drive.
    Basically, EASIEST way to do all this, if you don't care about your play counts, etc...
    -Delete EVERYTHING from iTunes, so that your library is now empty.
    -Go to "Advanced" inside of the "Preferences" window, found in the "Edit" drop-down.  You can also access Preferences by pressing Ctrl+, (Press Ctrl and the comma key)
    -Change your iTunes Media Folder Location to something simple, but on your computer. I use C:/iTunes.  Make sure "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" and "Copy files to...." are both checked.  You can close Preferences now.
    -Now, drag and drop your music from your hard drive into your iTunes library.  iTunes will automatically add the music to your library, as you would expect, and also creates a copy of each file to place into that iTunes Media Folder you just created.
    Shouldn't have any more problems...

  • I have my iTunes music folder stored on an external hard drive.  I recently purchased a new Mac.  After attaching the external hard drive, all the songs imported without any problem except my Playlists.  Any clue about where they are or how to revive them

    Correct.
    After that just select the new folder location in iTunes> Advanced settings.
    Incorrect.
    Hold Option and launch iTunes.
    Select Choose library and select the iTunes folder.
    This will read the iTunes library.itl file in this folder and the library as it was previously will be opened.

  • I just bought and downloaded an album.  the album/tracks are NOT found in my music listing alongside every other track i have purchased! however, they are found and playable in the recently added playlist. plz help

    i just bought and downloaded an album.  the album/tracks are NOT found in my music library alongside every other track i have purchased! however, they are found and playable in the recently added playlist.  in addition, when using the search queue in the upper right corner, the artist and album is listed when searched for, but when clicked on, nothung happens.  i have downloaded hundreds of tracks with no issue (not a noob), but have no idea what has occurred...plz help

    Have you checked whether the songs are in your iTunes library? If they are, then just drag them to your purchased playlist. If they aren't, try checking for available downloads.
    If none of the previous work, then get in contact directly with iTunes store support to tell them about your problem.

  • Missing purchases, playlists, recently played, recently added, etc

    After opening iTunes today, all of my new purchases(last 3 or 4 months)are gone. The icons for recently added, recently played, playlists, and everything else in the lower section are gone. I tried a few of the suggestions like looking in the recycle bin, and searching my computer for the files didn't do anything. I also re installed iTunes to no avail...

    The default playlists are just Smart Playlists and you can recreate them. In iTunes go to File>New Smart Playlist
    "90s"
    Match the rule "Year">"is in the range">"1990">to>"1999"
    You can do 50s, 60s, 70s & 80's by adjusting the range
    Recently Added:
    Match the rule "Date Added">"is in the last">"1">"Days" make the days and the interval to suit yourself, you can have days, weeks or months.
    Top 25 Played:
    Uncheck the "Match the following rule" box
    Then check "Limit to">"25">"Songs">selected by "Most often played"
    Recently Played:
    Uncheck the "Match the following rule" box
    Then check "Limit to">"25">"Songs">selected by "Most recently played" make the "limit to" to suit yourself.
    Top Rated:
    Match the rule "My Rating">"is">"5 Stars" You can make that as many stars as you like from 1 to 5. Or you can make your rule "My Rating">"is greater than">"3 Stars" for example.
    Video:
    Match the rule "Video Kind">"Is">"Music Video" You can also have Movie or TV Show
    For all of these also check the box "Live Updating"
    If your purchases are definitely gone and if you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
    "Once a Product is purchased 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
    You could try contacting the iTunes Music 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 any of the links on this page you'll find a space at the bottom to email your query: iTMS Customer Service
    If you have an iPod, the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer

  • What happened to "recently purchased" ? I need a way to find the songs i recently bought so that i may add them to a playlist

    since i have a terrible memory, i really found it useful to use the "recently purchased" file in itunes to go back a few days later to add those songs to a playlist. what am i missing?

    In the menu bar, go to file, add smart playlist.  It should open a window to customize the playlist.  I think you want to set it to date added.

  • HT1386 I recently purchased an album from itunes.  When I subsequently sync'ed my ipod touch I ended up with all tracks of that album doubled on my ipod and I lost all my playlists. Subsequent syncing has not fixed it.  Any ideas what to try?

    I recently purchased an album from itunes.  When I subsequently sync'ed my ipod touch I ended up with all tracks of that album doubled on my ipod and I lost all my playlists. Subsequent syncing has not fixed it.  Any ideas what to try?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    You said:
    No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this. 
    That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem.

  • What happened to the recently purchased icon on the left side of the playlist?  I used to could purchase songs from one of my computers and then put them on the second authorized computer by selecting recently purchased.  Is there another way?

    What happened to the recently purchased icon on the left side of the playlist?  I used to could purchase songs from one of my computers and then put them on the second authorized computer by selecting recently purchased.  Is there another way?

    Well in order to keep all the ratings, playcounts ect ect of songs in iTUnes, place the songs back into there original folders/places on the "Old harddrive" by cutting (Not copying) them from the new Harddrive. Now iTunes should report the songs has being there and have ! marks beside the imported folder from your external Harddrive.
    Now you will delet the dead/broken links (Or missing music from the new drive)in iTUnes. Goto Ottos site for a script that will remove dead links and other things here
    Just download, unzip, and run the program.
    http://ottodestruct.com/iTunes/QuickScripts.zip
    Now with everything in place and the dead links removed you will either consolidate the library or set it to copy to another Folder. If you consolidate it moves ALL your music listed in iTunes to the "iTunes Music" folder and can not be reversed. If you set it to copy, it will just copy music from its current folder to the iTunes music folder. You will have to pick the best option for you but consolidating will work best if your trying to free up space. To consolidate goto "Advanced" and select "Consolidate Library". To copy goto Edit>preferenses>Advanced tab>general sub tab and check "Copy FIles to iTunes music Folder when added to library". THis location is also where you will change the location of iTunes Music folder from your old harddrive to the new one by hitting the "Change" button above the reset button

  • HT201272 My most recent purchases do not show up when I select 'Purchased' in order to download.  I only see a batch of old items that I do not wish to download.  Very frustrating... help.

    I'm attempting to retrieve and download some recent purchases.  They don't even show up in my 'purchased' column although they are listed in my account info.  Old stuff that I don't want starts to download but there's not sign of the new things I want to see.  It's all on the Apple TV, but not in my iTunes list.  Where are they?

    Cntrl + S will enable the side bar.
    Then you can manually manage media on your iDevice as you always have.
    Alternatively, control the content on the device by syncing the playlists and other media that you desire to the device.
