Hey
Has itunes 12 fixed the annoying problem that your icloud purchases will not show permantly?
With itunes 11 every time you leave itunes open for a longer time your icloud session will expire and your purchases disappear. This also happens when itunes is closed for a while. This is very frustrating as you than have to enter your password again.
Worse is that sometimes you have to go to itunes preferences>store to turn "show iCloud purchases" back on BUT it is actually not there. To get the option back you have to either sign out/in with your Apple ID or close itunes once or twice.
You will also have to than enter your Apple ID again after you selected the tick box because your icloud session expired.
It's so annoying to do this 5-6 times a week. On ios if your select show icloud purchases it will always be there until you turn it back off.
Any suggestions?
Thanks guys

Haha, that's the look am greeted with every other day on itunes 11, hence I have to do what I initially posted in this thread to fix it.
I haven't use itunes 12 yet but did you try signing out and in. What's the issue exactly is "show itunes cloud purchases" turned on but it's not showing your purchases or is the option missing.
I really hope itunes 12 fixes this so that our cloud purchases are shown permanent just like in ios.
