Why Songs duplicated - downloaded and shown as itunes in the clouds

Just downloaded iTunes 11. Approx 400 songs are shown with the cloud. I understand that it represents songs bought on other devices but not yet downloaded on the PC. But thats not the case.Each of the songs had been previously downloaded and therefore shown twice in the library. One with the cloud and one without. I can uncheck the preference to remove those with the cloud. Shouldn't they disappear if downloaded on the PC ? Any thoughts ?

Also check all have identical:
artist (unless they are supposed to be different)
disc number
album artist
disc count
compilation flag
artist
Try getting info on all tracks involved and re-type the album and artist names with an extra letter, close, then change them all back to the correct one

Digital booklets on iTunes in the Cloud

I cannot re-download digital booklets through iTunes in the Cloud, why this is so?

I am having the same problem! Did you ever find a solution to this problem?

I purchased songs from 2 different computers using itunes with the same apple id. I had 1 iPod I used for these but I just recently got an iPhone and I was wondering why it wasn't letting me put my purchased songs on my iPhone?

You can transfer iTunes content from an iTunes library on a single computer only.
Since these songs were purchased with the same iTunes account, you can download the song that is not in your iTunes library on the computer you will be syncing your iPhone with. Or you can download the song or songs direct on your iPhone.

Do you have iTunes Match or Purchased songs?
If purchased, start iTunes Store > More... > Purchased > Music > re-download from here

Hello. I am receiving "error codes" when trying to dowload songs. It charges me but the songs never download and I have restarted itunes and it does not automatically start downloading as instructed online. Help?

I don't know exactly what they said b/c they are nolonger on my screen. It said something to the effect of "incomplete dowload, there was an eror during the dowload of *Song*".
The songs purchased were showing in my purchased list with an "exclamation point" by them, which I believe indicates the download was incomplete. I restarted iTunes and the songs are no longer on my "Purchased list".
I was still charged after restarting iTunes

HT203167 Our old computer crashed and died. We imported our songs from back up disks to iTunes on the new computer. We lost all our purchased and downloaded songs. None of the help articles are helping. Any suggestions?

Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Why and how is iTunes changing the genre?

Mac OSX 10.9.4
iTunes 11.3
I have many songs in my iTunes account. I have found that if I modify the genre to my liking, it doesn't stay that way. For some reason after a period of time it changes/reverts to another genre. Here is the funny part. If I click on the info button, the genre that I modified it to, is still listed, however when it is grouped...it is grouped into another genre.
To fix it, I have to go into each genre, find each song incorrectly categorized, hit info, and save (I don't even have to change anything)...and it goes back to where I wanted it.
Why is this? Since my categorization was saved, why and how does it get re-grouped? I thought that it changed whenever I had an update or closed iTunes, but this grouping changes at any given time.
It is getting tiresome having to resave everything.
How can I stop this from happening? If the goal is to allow me to customize the genres, why won't it stick?

Go to iTunes > Preferences > Store and turn off
Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases
Share details about your library with Apple
On any iOS device go to Settings > Music and turn off
Show All Music
Close and reopen iTunes and/or reset the device and you should see your version of the metadata for each track rather than the original store data.

My purchases show partially downloaded. When I attempt to resume the download I recieve an error message " an unknown error occurred -50" Itunes has charged for the download and sent a reciept however the shows wont play?

I had the same problem so (assuming under the Purchased items in the Store you have a song stuck at 'Downloading'):
I went to Music, then Artists.
From there I chose the album.
The song that failed to download had the cloud symbol next to it.
I clicked the cloud symbol and the song completed the download for me.
(Please note this was in iTunes for Windows - I expect it to be similar in iTunes for Apple)

Hi Little Orchard,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Are you downloading to a computer or an iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch? I would first suggest signing out of the iTunes Store and restarting your computer or device. Then log in and look for your purchases again. If you are still not able to access your content the article below will get you connected with the iTunes Store Support.

TS1717 My Itunes will not launch after downloading and I have tried all the troubleshooting for itunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Do I need to system reboot my computer than try to download it again?

I'm having a very similar issue, paired with iTunes not being able to get online.
iTunes shows up in processes and then hangs at 17,000 K or so -- sometimes it will start up, but that (if it occurs) is a delay of literal hours.
Pretty meticulously went through all the 'cannot connect' trouble shooting, and have uninstalled, restarted, and then reinstalled every piece of apple software; issue is just as firm. Starting in safe mode or admin mode don't fix it; signing in as a different user doesn't fix it.
