IPhone – Purchased music lost due to lack of space for iOS 7 update

iphoneitunes

A few days ago I wanted to upgrade my iOS to version 7, but before I could do this I had to make room by deleting programs that didn't help so much.

So I was forced to delete my music library on my iPhone. And not really thinking about my new purchased music that hasn't been synchronized with iCloud or iTunes. So I lost my new music.

How do I get the music back without buying the music twice? I did a small test by buying one of the songs and Apple charged me again.

On your iOS 7 device:

  • Launch iTunes
  • Go to the "Other" tab
  • Go to Purchased

There you have the songs you bought. You can download them without Apple charging you again.

If Apple charged you again, it's either:

  • You bought another version of the song
  • You bought it with another iTunes account
