Q: Account name for purchase of a song does not show in the Get Info/File tab

I am moving files from an old iMac to a newer iMac. I have moved a Time Machine backup of my music to the new iMac and am now trying to use iTunes 12.3.2 to authorize the download of my purchased music.

 

The Apple Support page indicates that I can select a song, got to Get Info, select the File tab and see the Apple ID that was used to purchase the selected song. But for all of the songs that I have purchased using my most current Apple ID -- and for which the list of purchased songs show up in my Account as purchased -- I am unable to download them or see the Apple ID that was used to make the purchase.

 

Any suggestions?

 

My thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
