It’s January 2024. I removed an album from my iPhone to make more room. It won’t download anymore. Show’s Purchased.

So, I’ve tried

  • Sign out then back in. Did not help.
  • turned iPhone off. Turned it back on, still cannot download.
  • cannot purchase again as it shows Purchased already.
  • What can I do to download again?

Check again. If it says Purchased instead of Play or the price in the store then it is a hidden purchase. See Hide and unhide music, movies, TV shows, audiobooks, and books - Apple Support to unhide any hidden content and Redownload music - Apple Support to download it to local storage.

I found it, and unhid it. I had to use a Windows PC with iTunes on it, to fix this. My iPhone or my iPad were not able to do this.


Under account, in iTunes on a Windows PC, I found the hidden area where my music was at. I selected to un-hide it and everything was fine.


I looked in the iTunes hidden area on both my IOS devices and no music was there. I still don’t understand why that is the case.


Thanks,


🙂👍
