Won’t allow me to see albums in iTunes Store. Have to buy album a on my phone

I will search for a band with the field in the left, results show up. When click the option on an album or song to see in the store or just goes to browse and not the store. I have Apple Music but some songs I want to keep forever and support the artist more.

Hi Chrome262,


We understand you need help with purchasing music on your MacBook Pro. Let's check some settings that may be why you aren't able to continue the purchase after searching for the song or album. We'll use information from this article: Buy music from the iTunes Store - Apple Support


1. Open the Apple Music app.
2. In the menu bar, choose Music > Settings or Music > Preferences.
3. Go to the General tab, select iTunes Store, then click Ok.
4. Click the search field, then enter the song or album that you want to buy.
5. Click the iTunes Store button in the upper-right corner.
6. Click the price next to the song or album to buy it.
7. Sign in with your Apple ID and password to complete the purchase.


If the issue persists, reply back here.


Best regards.

Hello Chrome262,


The 'Show in iTunes Store' option at the bottom of the dropdown in your screenshot should take you to the album. If it doesn't, what happens when you click it?


Also, when you click in the Search bar in the Music app, you should see tabs appear at the top right of the same window that say Apple Music, Your Library, iTunes Store. Select iTunes Store so that you are specifically searching the store for music to purchase, then search for your song or album. What are the results then?


Take care.
