Why do my previous purchases show in my iTunes music library but not accessible??, Why do my previous purchases show in my iTunes music library but not accessible??

I received my new Macbook Pro today and have attempted to sync my iphone 4s with it, unfortunately like a bit of a moron I've ended up wiping all my music on my iphone.
I have then gone into Itunes and re-downloaded all my previous purchases (music tracks). They have all appeared in my music library but all but 4 are greyed out, will not play and will not allow me to do anything with them!
Can anyone help me, help the Mac newby sort his life out! I'd be lost without them and more to the point would have lost a fortune in music I'd paid for if I couldn't get them back!!
Cheers,
Chris

roaminggnome, it is normal and expected for the iPod to show in My Computer on a PC. That is part of the computer recognizing it as a camera for getting photos off the iPod.

  • Since an update about a month ago, iTunes no longer shows which songs on an album I've previously purchased. Anyone know why?

    Somce an update about a month ago, iTunes no longer shows which songs on a particular album I've previously purchased. Does anyone know why? For example, I purchase a number os songs fro Glee individually. When a new compilation album comes out, iTunes used to indicate which ones I've already purchased. Now it doesn't.

    you could use this script:
    Track Down Purchases 
    This script will examine each track in a selection of tracks or a selected playlist to determine if it was purchased from the iTunes Store and then copies it to a discrete playlist named for the person who purchased it, eg: "Steve Ballmer's Purchased Music". Recognizes song, video, and audiobook purchases. Purchaser information is gleaned by examining the track's file, which, depending on file location and access speed, can take as long a second per track.

  • HT201272 Why all my previous downloaded apps (free or paid) suddenly not showing up on the iTunes store "purchased" section.  Every time I select "purchased", the next screen shows "no purchased app available for downloaded"?? Please help!!

    Why all my previous downloaded apps (free or paid) suddenly not showing up on the iTunes store "purchased" section.  Every time I select "purchased", the next screen shows "no purchased app available for downloaded"?? It is the same on my iphone4 or ipad 2!!  Please help!!

    Dear Metal Wheels and King Penguin.
    I have to actually same problem today 23.10.2012. For an example I have only changed billing methods and have bought hundreds of apps but I remember clearly that I bought for an example ,,Wikipanion Plus'' and ,,OPlayer'' which is now HD OPlayer and I did not see them in purchased items, neither ,,not on ipad/iphone'' nour ,,not on my computer'' and I check in both my computer. I confirm hereby that I took the chance to re-buy these two Apps again through the same account but I got the message ,,As you have bought the previous version on this account you will get this update for free'' so I clicked yes and I got them both. This doesnt only proof that I have purchased them before and purchased items in iTunes Store has some lacks to fix but also it proofs that I also bought them through that specific account as I had to confirm the buying process. In my opnion this is not a thing which Apple should be relaxed with as its very important that powerusers and regular consumers can trust and rely on doing business and to shop via iTunes. I have a lot of expensive Apple Hardware and for me this is a stepping stone and a serious test on the circle of trust. If this cant be fixed I cannot recommend others to trust the store.

  • HT201272 Why aren't my previously purchased apps showing up in the purchased tab of the app store on my new ipad?  I used the same ID as my old ipad.

    I sold my original ipad and bought an ipad 2.  I wasn't worried about losing all of the apps I had previously purchased/downloaded, because I knew that the app store has a "purchased" tab, from which you can download previously downloaded apps.  I set up my new ipad 2 with the same app store ID.  I went to the purchased tab, the loading circle went on for awhile then went away, but no apps showed up.  What's the problem?
    I would be really upset if I lost all of the apps I previously paid for or downloaded (probably about 80 or so), seeing as how the app store is supposed to remember my purchase/download history based upon the user ID.

    Go to "Settings > iTunes and App Stores", touch the AppleID, sign out, and then sign in with your revised AppleID.

  • Why can't i see my movies in "Previous Purchases"  I bought the movie 6 months ago and just recently watched it- i had to restore my ipod and my computer becasue the both broke. now i can't see any movies, only apps, songs, books, and tv shows.

    OK i will explain my whol situation.
    My computers hard drive broke, so i had to get a new one.
    My itunes from the hard drive is gone now.
    MY ipod was disable to the point where you must plug it into the same itunes on the same computer it was last synced on.
    i had to restore my ipod.
    i re downloaded itunes.
    i got into my account.
    i re downloaded all songs, apps, books, tv shows, and pod casts.
    IT WON"T SHOW ME MY MOVIES.
    i looked in my purchase history so i know i bought it.
    i went back to "Previous Purchases"
    it still doesn't give me a category for movies.
    i really need to get that movie back because it was 9.99 and i refuse to let my money go to waste!
    Please Help!

    Films can currently only be downloaded once from the store, which I think is a requirement from the film distributors, so they won't show in the Purchased section for re-downloading. Have you not got a backup of it on, for example, an external drive or CD/DVD ?

  • HT201272 my quick link to previously purchased does not show movies. Why? I am trying to relocate a movie I have "lost"

    I am trying to relocate a movie I have lost on my itunes.  My quick link to purchased items on itunes does not show movies. How can I get my movie back. I have part of the download, the extras but movie is missing. only purchased in Novermber2011 but I have changed computer. The other one died. Any ideas.

    Subsequent movie downloads are currently only available in the USA and only some of those are (depending upon studio).
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
    Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
    You can re-download your available previous purchases.

  • Why don't  movies Previously purchased in iTunes via my PC show up in purchased view in iTune on my iPad?

    I had previously purchased movies via my PC iTunes which don't appear in iTunes on my iPad.  Previously purchased music and TV shows do appear in the iPad iTunes in my account?  Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?  Thanks.

    Only apps, music, books and TV shows will appear in your purchased tabs. Movies cannot be downloaded again. What you are seeing is normal and expected behavior on the iPad.

  • All previous purchases located on iCloud show same last modified date? Why?

    Greetings,
    I logged into my iTunes account for the first time in a log time today and noticed that any purchases located on icloud show a last modified date of Jan 06 2015 and I was curious why this would be. I'm fairly certain I have not accessed the files this year as I just setup iTunes with an empty library this week. Would all the files having the same modification date be due to a change in the file on the icloud servers? I'm not an iTunes match subscriber so I assume I could not have made changes to the files on that date and have them sync to icloud. Am I correct in that assumption?
    Any information would be appreciated. Below are my system specs, if it helps.
    Os: Windows7 x64
    iTunes version: 12.1.1.4

    This is by design.
    If you import an updated MP that is modifying the Incident class all Incident objects are updated to reflect the modifications of the updated MP.
    For instance: If you remove two obsolet enum values and import the updated MP in SCSM, in all Incident objects the obsolte enum property values will be removed = Updated Incident object = Last Modified Date will change.
    Hope this helps.

  • TS1702 my payment option for apple ID is showing "billing problem with a previous purchase."It is not accepting my credit card.WHY? No reason given

    Why is my application ot updated.

    Have you previously bought items when you didn't have sufficient money on your account ? If not then try contacting iTunes support and ask them why it's appearing (these are user-to-user forums, nobody on here will know the actual reason) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then possibly Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • HT201272 None of my previously purchased TV shows show up in the Library. This is new computer. I have deauthorized previous computers and authorized this one. Why aren't TV shows that I purchased showing up?

    No previously purchaesd TV shows are shown in the library. This is new computer, old one bit the dust. De-authorized all old computers. Authorized new one. Music shows up but not TV Shows I already bought. Any help?

    I should have mentined that none of my previous TV Show purchases show up in the purchased sub heading. The Music is there but no TV Shows. I am most interested in recovering Doctor Who Season 7.1, 7.2 and Christmas Specials. The rest I am not as concerned about.

  • My itunes on my iphone is not showing all my previously purchased songs. why is icloud not pushing all my music?

    I just got my iphone 4S and went to download my purchased music from the itunes app, but several songs were missing. Why are they not showing? How do I get them?

    I have had similar problems in the past like this one, give this a try:
    Go to your iPhone settings>music> scroll down to "show all music" and make sure its on.

  • HT201272 Why does my new computer only show very few of my previous purchases?

    Inherited an iMac that had had many many users.  The thing was pretty junked up and slow, so I decided to have a brand new OS installed. So basically it is  a new computer.   However, when I try to download previous purchases in iTunes I can only find the last two albums I bought.  It does not even recognoze that I have purchased other music.  When I was sharing the computer with others I had no trouble downloading all of my purchases.  So, where are the rest of my purchased albums?

  • Picture Book theme - why has my book printed with text box outlines showing? and how do I change this for any future purchases? This did not occur with previous books.

    Why have borders appeared around the text boxes in the Picture Book theme and how do I change them for the future.  My latest book looks dreadful!

    Have you checked, if your book is really set to the "Photos" Theme? This looks like you may have used one of the "Travel" themes. These themes create borders around the text boxes. When you select a theme, the book title will say "Photos", even if the theme is a different one.
    For example, frames text boxes with the "travel" theme.
    Have you previewed your book, before printing it? Did the framed boxes already show in the preview?

  • HT201272 why is itunes app store still showing prices for previous purchases?

    I have not had this problem until recently. prior to today, I could go into iTunes App Store and a show or movie I already own is available for download but now it shows the cost. I dare click on it for fear of being double billed. This is frustrating because iTunes just started allowing us to access our purchased content without connecting to the computer and downloading them as often as we wanted. Is this problem affecting others or just me?

    I started having the same problem yesterday.
    In fact, I just now downloaded a free app.  With the app now on my PC, it still shows that it is "free" rather than "downloaded" on the iTunes app page.  I moved the .jpa file out of the default folder, and refreshed the app page in iTunes.  Similarly, it does not show a "download" option like it should.  It makes re-downloading apps that I have paid for in the past difficult if there is not the "download" bar to indicate that I am entitled to the app.
    It's probably related, but at one point last night I had a bunch of apps with available updates.  I tried to go to the iTunes page on my PC to view the apps with updates.  At that point I got a pop-up window stating that I did not have any updates available, and it has been zero ever since.  I did not download the updates, nor did all of the apps disappear from the iTunes catalog.
    I have an iPad 2 and recently got an iPod Touch.  I want to re-download some non HD apps for the Touch that I ditched for HD versions on the iPad.  I, too, do not want to be re-billed.
