Q: I hide a TV show I purchased on my iPad, and now I can't figure out how to unhide it! The directions are not helping because the steps tell me to sign in and then go to view my account, but there is no VMA option?

I hide a TV show I purchased on my iPad, and I can't figure out how to unhide it!  The directions in help don't make sense because it tells me to sign in and then click on "View My Account."  There is no view my account option when I sign in!  Does anyone know what I can do?

    Those are the instructions for your computer's iTunes (i.e. using the Store menu at the top of your computer's iTunes and selecting 'View My Account' on it). If you are doing it on your iPad then are you following the instructions for iOS devices :

    To unhide your purchases

    1. Depending on the content type, open the App Store, iBooks, or iTunes Store on your device.
    2. Scroll to the bottom of the main page.
    3. If you're not already signed in, tap Sign In.
    4. Tap your Apple ID name, then tap View Account.
    5. Scroll down on the Account pane, and tap Hidden Purchases.
    6. Locate the item you would like to unhide then tap the Unhide button.
