Hey basically i want to know is there a way to retrieve every song i have bought on itunes with my account? Also the songs i buy i can't find the files on my computer. Like they are in my itunes but the file isn't there so i can move it around or re-add it when i want to.

+rep for any good help :-)

If you brought the song from your ipod it should be under purchased and then if you connect your ipod to your computer a thing should pop up and if it doesn't just go to computer and click on the ipod and files should come up and then drag and drop the songs! I think this should work.

No it's like i have bought them from the itunes store and then i have looked for the files afterwards and they're not there and i was to retrieve all the songs i have bought with my account onto my itunes and i don't know where they are!

Did you buy them on your computer/laptop or on your ipod?

If they're in your iTunes library, right click the song > Show in Explorer, if they aren't and you can't find the files on your computer from searching etc. then you're buggered.

I haven't read the above posts because I'm to lazy so I'm not sure if you haven't or have gotten your library back.

All I did was sent an email to Apple saying that my computer was cleaned due to having Windows 7 Installed. They replied back immediately asking me what my itunes account email is and they warn you that you can only get your stuff back once and if you choose to update your computer again and don't back up iTunes you will lose everything. Than you confirm you want it done and than it will come up on you iTunes account that you have lots of files to download! ;)

Hope that helped.
