Unhidden movies, music, tv shows

I just clicked "unhide" on several movies, tv shows and albums. It showed they were all successfully unhidden, but they never showed up in my library. Does anyone know where they went and how I can get them into my library? Thank you!!

Hidden items won't appear in your Library on any devices that you use with your Apple ID, unless you downloaded the item onto a device. You may have to redownload the items. For more info, see:

If you have unhidden movies, TV shows, and albums but they are not showing up in your library, there could be a few possible explanations for this issue. Here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the problem:

Refresh your library: Sometimes, the changes may not reflect immediately. Try refreshing your library by closing and reopening the app or logging out and logging back in.

Check different sections: Make sure to check different sections of your library, such as "Movies," "TV Shows," and "Music" to ensure that you are looking in the right place.

You are correct. It did not take effect immediately, but they did finally show up about 2 weeks later. Thank you for trying to help me.


THANK YOU, EVERYONE, FOR THE HELP YOU GAVE ME! I'M GLAD THIS ISSUE IS RESOLVED. I HOPE MY EXPERIENCE HELPS SOMEONE IN THE FUTURE. ALL YOU NEED IS A LITTLE PATIENCE AND YOUR MOVIES, TV SHOWS AND MUSIC WILL BE BACK WHERE THEY BELONG :)
