    If they are downloading on the iPad when you buy them on your computer then I assume that you currently have automatic downloads turned 'on' on your iPad but not on your computer's iTunes : automatic downloads.  You can copy any purchases from the iPad that are not yet on your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases.
