purchased songs from iTunes under different account

Welcome To The Discussion Boards Dr.Probst.

Admittedly, I'm not real techno savvy at this stage of my experience, so maybe someone will have a clever something for you to do... but my guess would be either:

1.) There's nothing to be done.

UNLESS (qualified with a big 'maybe')

2.) You had some kind of a back up of those songs. Did you? And if so, where?

Hopefully, someone who knows definitively will drop in and let us both know.

mwn 🙂

Assuming you know the password, you can still use the iTunes account associated with the dropped .mac address. And you can have up to five accounts authorized for a particular copy of iTunes, so you should be all set.

That said, my wife purchased one song with an iTunes account she made with a 90-day .mac address. iTunes claims that there's no such account, and for one song it's not worth calling customer support. In your case it might be worth calling -- Apple's customer support is fantastic, once you get through to them.
