Help accessing old iTunes library

Hi so on my Apple Music I have all my downloads from 10+ years ago on iTunes


I was using a yahoo account in high school 10 years ago for all my downloads.


Don't have access to the yahoo account anymore.


All the music is sitting here in my Apple Music waiting to be downloaded


How do I get access to it ?


Attached a pic for reference

BackPack,


Your past purchases from the iTunes Store can be redownloaded per these steps:

Redownload music - Apple Support


Re-downloading does require authorizing the computer to the account that was originally used for the purchases. You don't need to access the old yahoo email, but you do need to know the old iTunes password. If you don't, you can go to appleid.apple.com and click the "Forgot..." link.


You can decide for yourself whether it is worth the trouble.
