Some music I purchased is missing from the cloud.

I went to purchase history under my account and the music shows up. But when I look at Purchased on both iMac and iPad iTunes it is not there for me to download from the cloud.

iPad, iOS 4.3.2

I had to exact same promblem so I made a list of songs that I was missing and as I was about to report it to iTunes I came across my hidden purchases and every single song I was missing was right there so I unhid all of them and now there back to iCloud.


You can do this from your apple device or computer.

1. Click on your apple ID

2. Click view apple ID

3. Put in password

4.You should see "iTunes in the Cloud"

5. Click on "Hidden Purchases"

6. All of the music, movies, and tv shows you are missing should be there and if your on your apple device you can just download it but if your on a computer click unhid purchase and close itunes and then reopen it.


I hope this helps.

I have had the issue of missing music in iCloud. For some reason due to label contracts that certain albums/songs have been pulled from the iTunes store and is no longer available. So when albums/songs are pulled they become unavailable in iCloud. Nothing can be done about it. This is what I don't like about Apple. They should come into some agreement with the record label compinies that when the pull certain album/songs it should be allowed to have them stored in iCloud in previous purchases. After all, we paid for it. I learned my lesson. After I purchase a download I burn a copy to a cd. I'm worried of losing movies and TV shows that I have purchased. I don't trust Apple. Apple needs to stand behind their products.and reinsure their customers that they won't lose thier content.
