Songs I purchased on my iPhone not showing up in my itunes library, or purchase history. The iPhone was unauthorized, but connected to my iTunes account.

So I got a new iPhone about a month or two ago (I no longer have this iphone) and I bought some albums from iTunes but now that I'm on my computer (which the iphone is not authorized on) I cant seem to find out how to download the albums I downloaded. The albums were bought on the iPhone through the iTunes app that was associated with my account. The songs show as purchased on the iTunes store, but theyre not in my purchased list.

With your iPhone connected, iTunes open and the iPhone selected in the devices panel, go to File menu and click "Transfer purchases"

My audio books that were bought through Itunes on my Iphone do not show up on my Itunes account.

I bought audio books on my iphone, but they do not show up on my itunes account on my computer. The books I purchased through the computer show up on my itunes account. My phone is at it's max and I need to remove these books, but do not want to lose them. Thank you for your assistance.

This isn't completely coherent so I am not sure what is wrong other than some (al?) of your tracks have broken links.
If you are browsing through iTunes you are not looking at files you are looking at data entries that point to files, with those locations being incorrect right now.
There isn't a file called iTunes media, there is a folder that should be in your iTunes folder called that.
You mention something about external drives. I presume one is for your Time Machine backup but is the other one used for iTunes? If so, what do you keep there?
Here's some background information to help place this in context:

As you connect your ipod to iTunes, an option in the upper right of the screen will appear. When you click this, it will show the different menu for your ipod.

My purchased ringtones are not showing up on my iTunes account?! Where are they??

The screen on my laptop has an internal crack so im using my mom's laptop for now. When I connected my iPhone to the computer, I couldn't do anything without syncing my phone which meant everything got erased! I wasn't too upset because I backed up everything on iCloud. Well for some reason, it didn't back up anything and I lost all my media. No biggie. I added most of the songs and apps back. I tried to add the ringtones I've purchased from iTunes but they're not showing up under the "purchased" section of my iTunes account. I don't know why they're not showing up. It's at least 20 ringtones that I've purchased at $1.29 each! Please help!!

I purchased three ringtones on my iPhone 5. They installed quickly and I was easily able to assign them to contacts. The next time I connected my iPhone to iTunes on my computer the ringtones disappeared from my iPhone. They were still showing in iTunes ringtones section on my computer. They showed up on my iTunes accounts page as being purchased too. I tried everything suggested on the forums to get my purchased ringtones to show on my phone again, with no success.
I started trying different things out of desperation and finally lucked upon a solution. I opened iTunes on my computer. Under the Library section I opened Tones (left side of screen same section as music, movies, etc.). When the tones section opened it showed my three ringtones. I dragged the three ringtones to the desktop. I then deleted the three ringtones from the tones menu. It asked if I wanted to delete them from iTunes completely or just from the tones section. I chose to delete them from the tones section only. Once they were deleted From the tones section i went back to the desktop and dragged the three ringtones from the desktop back to the tones section. The computer automatically synced to my phone and VIOLA! the three ringtones appeared on my iPhone again.
Extra suggestion. I have been using an app from the iTunes Store named Ringtone Maker Pro. It takes songs from my iTunes library and converts them to ringtones. It does a great job. There is a video attached that shows exactly what to do step by step.
Hope this helps.

HT203167 i purchased a tv show season pass and it is not showing up in my itunes account

i purchased a tv season pass and it isnt showing up in my itunes

I always check email for a confirmation of purchase before I worry- and I did get one. But apparently ( not like normally) this last pass purchase I made had some kind if delay in showing up as purchased on ATV. Half an hour later- there it is.... Which is good sine I had to answers on what to do other than restart again. If it doesn't show in yr acct or have a receipt- id rebut it. It's easier to get them to refund a duplicate than search for the invisible.

The music I have purchased on my IPod are not showing up on my ITunes library on my computer

The music I have purchased on my IPod is not showing up on my Itunes account on my computer, I went to the itunes store on my computer and went to see if I could download a song i previously purchased, but it was going to have me pay again. I have about a hundred songs missing on my computers itunes. It won't let me sync my ipod to it anymore and when I tried to update the software it wouldn't let me. I am completely at a standstill with this.

Then you're doing something wrong. Are you signed in with the same Apple ID on the computer that the content was purchased with?
Did you check the purchase history?

HT1727 help how do i make a purchased song my ring tone, it;s not showing on my list for ringtones

help how do i make a purchased song my ring tone, it's not showing on my list for ringtones

This song was purchased from the iTunes Store?
If so, you can't create a ringtone from music that was purchased from the iTunes store, but if there is a ringtone available for purchase and download at the iTunes Store with this song, you need to do that.
For music in your iTunes library on your computer that was not purchased from the iTunes store, there are a number of ways to create a ringtone with such music. With a Mac, there is an inexpensive or free app avaiable via Apple's online App Store named Ringer. Ringer has access to all music and sound files in your iTunes library that was not downloaded from the iTunes Store for creating your chosen segment of the song to be used for the ringtone. The app places the created ringtone in your iTunes library under Tones for transfer to your iPhone when syncing.
Creating ringtones on a Mac can also be done with GarageBand, and there is a manual way of doing this with iTunes.

Why is it that past purchased songs do not show up on my ITunes?

Songs previously purchased over the years are not showing up in my purchased or are showing up as albums not currently in US store. I am assuming as I changed e-mail addresses through the years they used to follow me and would continue. I should not have to pay for previously purchased music.

Content acquired via iTunes is permanently tied to the Apple ID it was acquired with.
If the email address associated with the Apple ID was simply updated, this should be a non-issue.
However, if a new Apple ID was created, there are no past purchases from previous Apple IDs associated with it.
Sign in with and authorize the computer for those old Apple IDs.
Download the content purchased with those old Apple IDs.
STOP creating new Apple IDs simply because the email address has changed.

iTunes Store: How to enable Automatic Downloads - Support - Apple

I have the current version of iTunes and when I plug my device in, the library says that I have songs on my device that are not showing up on my iPod touch. How do I get these songs on my device?

On iTunes, my library says that I have a lot of songs on my device that do not show up on my actual iPod touch. These songs disappeared from my iPod when I plugged it in, then they showed back up, but with a red square and circle, and now, after syncing and autofilling, they are gone again. How do I get these songs from my iTunes "ON MY DEVICE" library to my actual device?

I can import some songs from another computer but not others. All the songs were purchased with the same apple id. Message says "...check connection to network..." Any ideas as to what could be causing this problem?

Using home share, I can import some songs from my son's computer but not others. All the songs were purchased with the same apple id. Err msg:"There was a problem downloading ... You do not have enouggh access privileges for this operation. Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again." The network appears to be fine . I can import other songs from his library. The same songs cause me a problem each time I try. My husband had no trouble importing the same songs I have trouble with. I get the same error message if I try to import the same songs from my husbands computer as well. "Command I" appears to show the same protections on both the songs I can import & the ones I cannot. My husband and son are both running OS 10.6, while I am running 10.7. I think I had this problem even before I upgraded, but I am not certain.

Welcome to Apple Discussions..
My first suggestion is to Repair Disk. Here's how:
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior
Please post back and let me know how that goes.
Here are a few links that may help you to identify the issues:
