Purchased Songs on iTunes - Not showing in iPod

I purchased some songs in iTunes from my iPhone. Showed as downloaded succesful, but the songs are not showing up in the iPod on the phone. Not sure where the songs could have dissapeared to. Has anyone else had this problem?

3GS, iOS 4

I had something similar to this. Purchased some cartoons from iTunes using my iPhone. When i synced my iPhone to iTunes, i got an error msg and iTunes stopped responding. I tried again and the same thing happened. The newly purchased show would not show up in iTunes. This issue was resolved by RESTARTING my iPhone and re-syncing my iphone to iTunes. The purchased tv show now shows up in both iTunes & my iPhone.

I have the exact same problem now.

I purchased two songs thismorning from within the iTunes application on my iPhone 3GS.
The songs both downloaded over WIFI pretty quickly, and then i launched the iPod application and went straight to the "Purchased" playlist, but neither of the songs appear there.

I went back to iTunes application and clicked "purchase" on the songs again, but it just gave me a warning message that the songs have already been purchased, and asking if i wanted to purchase them again??

So i did, hoping it would work the second time, but the same thing happened - it just downloaded, finished and then just dissapeared!!!!

Why is this happening? And i think ive now been charged twice for the songs even though i cant see them or listen to them.

help help help please!!!

My situation is even worse. ALL of my music and podcasts will not show up when I bring up the iPod app. It all shows as being there when I hook it up to my laptop and view it through iTunes. It just doesn't show up on my iPhone (4), and this goes for both purchased and songs ripped from my own CD collection.

Does anyone have any answers to this? I've killed the app, restarted it, and even rebooted my phone, all with the same result.

Any answers out there???

I just bought two songs from iTunes and they also did not show up in iPad list, or finder.

I also noticed that after upgrading to iOs4.2.1 on Monday it whacked every song in my iPhone 3Gs as well. Not impressed. Why I purchased some tunes to listen too.. and now that I did.. I can't find them anywhere.

This thread open since Sept and Apple hasn't responded yet?
