Songs of Innocence not in library??

I want to have U2s Songs of Innocence in my library, however it doesn't appear to be there? When I try to manually download from the iTunes Store it says that I have already purchased it and so cannot download again?


How do I acquire this album?😕

iPhone 5s, iOS 7.1.2

You need to update iTunes to 11.4. However, myself and many other people are getting a system extension error after doing this update.


I would wait a day or so to see if Apple fixes this iTunes problem.

The error after updating iTunes is:


System extension cannot be used

The system extension “/System/Library/Extensions/AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext” was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product’s vendor for an update.

I had a similar issue where it didn't show up. What worked for me was similar to a solution others found- Clicked the 'add-to' dropdown in my Purchased music folder, found the album in the menu it opened up (I had went into preferences, turned on Cloud visibility beforehand) command clicked all the songs and clicked 'download'. Now it's in my main library.


P.S. Also along the way I updated the user agreement (it brought up the menu).

William Kucharski's Tip worked for me as well. Not sure if this is a issue with an auto-deploy not working correctly with my PC. Is this a security issue where a computer won't allow files to download, yet the account in I-tunes got the pointer as if it had?


At least there is a workaround.


The workaround is easy to beat if you have a touch screen on the timing.
