"ought that when you purchased apps with your iphone that your iTunes account knew that you purchased them and would let you download them to a new device"
Not correct. From the terms of use of the itunes store:
"PRODUCTS CAN BE DOWNLOADED ONLY ONCE; AFTER BEING DOWNLOADED, THEY CANNOT BE REPLACED IF LOST FOR ANY REASON. YOU SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BACKING UP YOUR OWN SYSTEM, INCLUDING ANY PRODUCTS PURCHASED OR RENTED FROM THE ITUNES STORE THAT ARE STORED IN YOUR SYSTEM."
http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICE
You can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod: File>Transfer Purchases
You can try contacting itunes support to ask for an exception, but they are under no obligation to do so.

  • Trouble downloading purchased items

    I am trying to download my purchased CS 5.5, as i have just formated my PC.
    I start by logging in, navigating to my orders and press the Download button. From there, any download-able link i try, it says i have to log on, before i can start my download. From here, when i try the two links provided, i get redirected to the product catalog page. Specs
    I have never had this problem before, and i have downloaded the product before, without any complications at all.
    My specs are:
    ASUS PC
    Windows 7 SP 1
    Using Google Chrome v. 36.0.1985.125
    I have tried to disable both my firewall and my antivirus, but without luck.
    Can someone help me?

    You might try using a different browser - Adobe's site has been iffy that way.
    You could also try downloading thru the following page instead of thru your account.

  • Just bought a new imac and tried to download all my music from my iPod but it only allow me to download purchased items and not the rest of stuff stored on a previous pc itunes folder. How do I get round this ?

    Just bought a new imac and tried to download all my music from my iPod but it only allow me to download purchased items and not the rest of stuff stored on a previous pc itunes folder. How do I get round this ?

    The simplest way to transfer everything is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.
    See "External Drive" in this article-> iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer

    my app account has been deleted from appstore,and i can't download purchased items on my new imac
    what should i do?i purchased aperture 3 and final cut pro

    "my app account"
    Click Account under Quick Links right side of the App Store window then sign in.
    If you can login using your Apple ID, then your account is in good standing.
    Otherwise try here >  Apple ID: "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons"  appears

  • I have a windows pc.  How can I download purchased items which have become corrupted on my PC.  I can't use iCloud

    I have a windows pc.  How can I download purchased items which have become corrupted on my PC.  I can't use iCloud without an Apple device.  I have gone into purchased but next to each title it merely says 'downloaded'.  I need to download them again.  It will cost a fortune to re-purchase the corrupted music!

    I tried that but it just shows 'downloaded'.  There is no little cloud next to that wording.  On an Itunes help page it shows a 'library icon' once you have logged in but that does not appear on my version of ITunes which is 11.1.  I have lost so many peices of music!  Is this some ploy by Apple to get you to buy them all over again??  Thanks for you response, if you can think of anything else I would be most grateful

  • My iphone 5 will not sync with my macbook pro.  it says my computer is no longer authorized to download purchased items from the iphone

    my iphone 5 will not sync with my macbook pro.  it says my computer is no longer authorized to download purchased items from the iphone.  However, when I go to authorize my computer, it says it is already authorized.  How do I fix this?

    You can't change the Apple ID that the Authorize dialog comes up with by default. It's showing you that Apple ID for a reason: it means that the items you want to play were purchased using that Apple ID and therefore you need to authorize your computer with that Apple ID. Changing the Apple ID given completely defeats the entire purpose.
    If you don't know the password to the given Apple ID, then you will no longer be able to play those items.

  • While downloading purchased items, message pops 'There was an error downloading some purchased items stopped err = 3259'

    While downloading purchased items, message pops 'There was an error downloading some purchased items stopped err = 3259'

    You'll have to check your security software settings, iTunes has to be able to connect to Apple servers during the download process.
    iTunes Store reporting error - 3259

  • My Mac Hard disk recently broke and was replaced. Now, although my computer is authorised in itunes store, it won't let me re-download purchased items (esp OSX Lion). How can I make computer re-download previous purchases?

    Never mind - I didn't realize that I just needed to wait a while for the Cloud stuff to cycle through and load. Solved!

  • "Problems with downloading purchased items......."

    I am having problems with a couple of recent downloads. It happened once recently with the purchase of 4 individual songs. Somehow they eventually downloaded. Not sure how. Now, this past week, I downloaded 2 individual songs from the itunes music store, with no problem, then purchased an album and got through downloading two songs before I began to get the same "problem" window that I got before. The window would pop up and read, "There were problems downloading purchased items. Please check your connection and try again." That was about it. I have downloaded to my current set up for a long time. I have an external hard drive with about 106G of music on it. I have another couple of gigs left. I have the external set up as my itunes music folder in the advanced preference window, etc. I just can't figure out why this is happening and there is little support from Apple. FAQs are not helping. Anybody have any advice? Thanks, in advance. J

    Hi,
    Open download window - down arrow top right. What does this show? If it shows track name with "error" shown. Select all and delete.
    Now try to see if you can redownload by going itunes store > purchased.

  • Clash of clans unable to purchase gems on new device

    I Recently upgraded to an iPad mini 3 and I have successfully transferred Clash of Clans, and I can access my village on my new device. However I cannot buy gems on my new device, the only way I can purchase gems is by purchasing them on my old device.  On the new device, when I try to purchase, it says that "the purchase is pending" And the message does not change. Can anyone help?  At the moment purchases on my old device show up on my new device.  I have tried to delete clash of clans off my old device but this seems to have no effect On my ability to purchase on my new device.

  • Can I download previous purchases on a new device with a different Apple ID?

    My daugther got an iPad mini for Christmas and setup her own Apple ID. Prior to this everything we bought went through my account. She wants to download the music that is on my account but I am telling her she can't because she has a different Apple ID.
    She told me that last night she went to a friends house, had her friend login to her Apple account and downloaded some of her songs and then signed back into her account and said I can just do the same thing. Is this really possible? If it's not, how did she get her friends music on her iPad?

    Not exactly:
    when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID.
    Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days.
    Note: Removing a device from your Apple ID does not override the 90 day timer. The timer must complete 90 days from the day the device was associated before it can be associated to another Apple ID.
    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
    In other words, she won't be able to associate the device with her new apple ID for 3 months if you download past purchases on it with yours even if you subsequently dissassociate the device afterwards.
