I have been using iTunes for years and purchasing songs. Recently, I also purchased an Apple Music subscription.
I purchase songs from iTunes on my iphone. However, when I open iTunes on my PC now, these new songs that I have purchased (since I subscribed to Apple Music), do not show up as available for download in iTunes.
How do I resolve this? Thanks in advance for any help!
Windows, Windows 10
Thanks for reaching out Tokyo13,
It sounds like you have some iTunes purchases that you're unable to locate. We can help.
You can check out these steps to Download previous iTunes purchases on PC:
Download previous purchases to an authorized computer
1. In the iTunes appon your PC, choose Music from the pop-up menu at the top left, then click Store.
2. Click Purchased (below Quick Links) near the top right of the iTunes Store window.
3. Click Music, Movies, TV Shows, or Audiobooks near the top right of the Purchased page.
4. Purchases available for download are displayed. You can view all of your past purchases, or just the ones not currently in your iTunes library. Items already in your library aren’t available for download.
5. If you select Music, you can view your purchases by song, artist, or album. If you view by album, click an album to see which songs are available to download.
6. To search for an item, type its name or a keyword in the search field, then press Enter.
7. To download an item, click its iCloud Download button.
8. To find out how to download previous purchases to your device, see the user guide for iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. For a device that doesn’t use the latest version of iOS or iPadOS, get the user guide from the Apple Support Manuals website.
Hope that helps.
Take care.

Thank you! I actually stumbled upon that solution by myself as well! Was able to turn automatic download of purchases back on.
Thanks again!
