Purchased song in iTunes 11 and can't find it anywhere in my Library

Anyone had this happen? I just bought a song in new iTunes and now it's not anywhere in my Library.

It shows 'Purchased' in store but the song is not there. Restarted iTunes etc... Can these guys

do anything right lately??

Do you see it in your Recently Added playlist and do you use iTunes Match?


https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4543259 - delay of several hours (for some people overnight) for new additions to iTunes to appear in the main library window as a result of using iTunes Match. Things to try:


1) Turn off Match, see if the items appear, then turn Match on again.


2) Drag the items from the Recently Added playlist to the library.


3) Wait until they do appear.

I had the same problem. I purchased the music on my iMac and it wouldn't show up anywhere. I tried the iTunes match trick and that didn't work for me either. I finally looked on my iPhone and it was under purchased music there but still not on my iMac. When I added the song to a playlist on my phone it finally showed up on my iMac but I still had to download it from the cloud. The weirdest thing was that I bought two songs from the same album and one showed up right away and the other didn't. Hope they fix this quick.
