You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
It appears a glitch occurred. That happens some times. If you have a backup yo can restore from backup

Dec 15, 2015 7:06 AMby The Happy Crab,Thanks Illaass. I will work on un-encrypting but I'm an curious as to why an update to iTunes put it in recovery mode and required encryption in the first place? I was unable to NOT encrypt.
As to the issue of back-up to iTunes the Apple advisor had me 'recover' an old iTunes library which has removed newer purchases and still doesn't load the purchases. Now it only shows 22 songs out of 404 purchases even though the rest of the library appears to be there. (5,000 plus songs).
