Q: Unhide music in itunes

I have 1000s of purchased songs that hid themselves randomly. Why did this happen and how do I stop it from happening

again. Now I have to manually go and unhide every album. This is frustrating.

MacBook Pro, iOS 8.4

    The same thing happened to me, but I figured out the issue. First press your name and go to Account Info at the top right of iTunes Picture 1.png

    After pressing account info, type in your Apple ID password and scroll down until you see iTunes in the Cloud and under hidden purchases

    press manage.

    After you press manage, you will see every single album/song you purchased. Press Unhide All at the bottom right of the window to, well, unhide all of the purchases

    After pressing unhide all, go to My Music and everything you purchased is there, but they may not all be downloaded on your computer so you can download them by pressing the cloud on each album coverSNoot 2015-07-21 at 23.21.07.png

    Hope I cleared this up
