        "content": "Yes \u2014 you *can* make a hard-copy (local) backup of all your wife's music purchases from iTunes by downloading them to your Mac, without syncing an iPhone/iPad. Using the current Apple / Music / iTunes setup, here are instructions that should work well even with VoiceOver assistance.\n\n---\n\n## What to check first\n\n- You\u2019ll need the **Apple ID** that was used to buy the music.\n- Make sure the Mac is **authorized** with that Apple ID (to play/download purchased music). ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-in/120552?utm_source=openai))  \n- Ensure internet connection.  \n- Ensure there is enough hard-disk space for all those downloads.  \n\n---\n\n## Steps to download *all* purchased music to the Mac\n\nOn modern Macs (macOS Catalina 10.15 or later), the **Music** app handles iTunes Store purchases. On older Macs, the separate **iTunes** app does. The steps are slightly different but similar in principle. I\u2019ll give both, with VoiceOver-friendly tips.\n\n---\n\n### If your Mac uses the *Music* app (macOS Catalina or newer)\n\n1. Open the **Music** app.  \n   - With VoiceOver: Hit Command-Space, type \u201cMusic\u201d, press Return.\n\n2. Sign in with her Apple ID:  \n   - Menu Bar \u2192 **Account** \u2192 **Sign In** \u2192 enter Apple ID/password.  \n   - VoiceOver tip: Navigate to menu bar with VO-M to hear menus; use VO-Right-Arrow etc.  \n\n3. Authorize the Mac if not already:  \n   - Menu Bar \u2192 **Account** \u2192 **Authorizations** \u2192 **Authorize This Computer...**  \n   - Enter Apple ID credentials.  \n\n4. Go to **Account** \u2192 **Purchased**.  \n   - VoiceOver: after opening Account menu, use arrow keys to locate \u201cPurchased\u201d.\n\n5. In Purchased, select **Music**.  \n   - The screen will show albums/songs she\u2019s purchased, including ones not on this Mac.  \n\n6. To download everything, scroll to the bottom and click **\u201cDownload All\u201d**.  \n   - VoiceOver will read that control. If \u201cDownload All\u201d isn\u2019t present or is disabled, you may instead see individual download (cloud) buttons next to each item. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-in/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n7. Alternatively, she can download album-by-album or song-by-song via the cloud-download icons.  \n\n8. Once downloaded, the files are stored locally. You can then copy them to an external drive, burn CDs, or archive them as you like.  \n\n---\n\n### If your Mac is using *iTunes* (older macOS or older iTunes version)\n\n1. Open **iTunes**.\n\n2. Sign in with her Apple ID (Account \u2192 Sign In).\n\n3. Check that the Mac is authorized (Account \u2192 Authorizations \u2192 Authorize This Computer).\n\n4. Go to **iTunes Store** tab. In the sidebar or near \u201cQuick Links\u201d, find **Purchased**. ([help.apple.com](https://help.apple.com/itunes/mac/12.7/en.lproj/itns36a8f323.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n5. Select **Music** (so you only see songs). Use the \u201cNot in My Library\u201d filter if you want just ones not yet downloaded.  \n\n6. For each song/album you want, click the cloud icon (download). To download all, sometimes there is a \u201cDownload All Available\u201d or \u201cCheck for Available Downloads\u201d function.  \n   - In iTunes, go to **Account** \u2192 **Check for Available Downloads**. ([help.apple.com](https://help.apple.com/itunes/mac/12.7/en.lproj/itns36a8f323.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n7. After downloading, you will have .m4a or .aac files in your music folder (or the iTunes Media folder). That\u2019s the basis for making your hard copy.\n\n---\n\n## VoiceOver-friendly tips\n\n- When you open menus, use **VO-M** (Control-Option-M) to move the focus to the menu bar.\n- Use **VO-Space** to \u201cclick\u201d buttons or menu items once they are focused.\n- To find the \u201cPurchased\u201d item, VO-Right Arrow through menu items; VO will announce each.\n- Use **Quick Nav** (left/right arrows) in lists of albums/songs to move through without stepping into each item.\n- If a dialog box appears (e.g. for authorization), VO will announce it; move to fields with VO-Tab (Control-Option-Tab) and then type.\n\n---\n\n## After download \u2012 making the hard copy\n\nOnce all purchases are downloaded:\n\n- Locate the files: typically in `~/Music/Music/Media/Music/` (on newer macOS) or `~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music/` (on older). ([viwizard.com](https://www.viwizard.com/apple-music-tips/download-apple-music-to-pc.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- Copy those folders/files to an external drive or burn to CDs (if desired).\n- Ensure you maintain file integrity during copy (i.e. do not compress, unless you also retain uncompressed or lossless backup if needed).\n\n---\n\n## Possible limitations & notes\n\n- Songs *ever sold* in iTunes Store are usually available to redownload, but *some* that have been removed from store by publishers may *no longer* be downloadable. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-in/120552?utm_source=openai))  \n- If purchases were made with *multiple* Apple IDs, you\u2019d need to sign into each to retrieve their purchases.\n- Regions matter: if Apple ID was for a different country, some items might not show under the current store region.  \n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can walk you through *step-by-step with VoiceOver keystrokes*, tailored to the macOS version you have. Do you know which version your Mac is (e.g. \u201cVentura\u201d, \u201cMonterey\u201d, \u201cMojave\u201d, etc.)?"

You are signed in with her Apple ID in the **Music** app and the Mac is **authorized** for her purchases. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))  \n2. The Mac has enough storage.  \n3. You have an internet connection.\n\n---\n\n## Using VoiceOver to reach \u201cPurchased\u201d in Music\n\nHere\u2019s how to navigate to **Purchased** using VoiceOver. VoiceOver commands use **VO** to mean **Control-Option** (or in newer macOS with \u201cVO\u201d set) and **VO-Space** means VoiceOver-modifier + Space.\n\n1. Open the **Music** app.  \n   VoiceOver: Command-Space \u2192 type \u201cMusic\u201d \u2192 Enter.\n\n2. Make sure you're signed in and authorized:  \n   - Menu Bar: VO-M to move to the menu bar.  \n   - Use VO-Right Arrow until you hear **Account**.  \n   - VO-Space to open **Account** menu.  \n   - In the **Account** menu, find **Authorize This Computer\u2026**, VO-Space to select it, enter her Apple ID + password if needed. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. Go to **Account** \u2192 **Purchased**:  \n   - VO-M \u2192 VO-Right Arrow \u2192 **Account** \u2192 VO-Space.  \n   - VO-Down Arrow to \u201cPurchased\u201d \u2192 VO-Space.  \n   - If using Family Sharing, you might also see *Family Purchases*. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n4. Once Purchased opens, you\u2019ll have a view that shows her past purchases in **Music**.  \n   - Use the sidebar or toggle to go to **Music** (so you only see music purchases).  \n   - There may be filters such as \u201cAll Music\u201d vs \u201cNot in My Library\u201d. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-ie/guide/music/musf4e9226b/mac?utm_source=openai))\n\n5. To download:  \n   - To download individual albums or songs: Navigate via VO through the list, find the album or song, then VO-Space on the **cloud icon** or **Download** button next to that item. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))  \n   - To download everything available pending (all songs/albums not already on the Mac): Scroll down to the bottom of the Purchased view and find **\u201cDownload All\u201d** \u2192 VO-Space to activate. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## Tips with VoiceOver\n\n- Use **VO-Right Arrow** and **VO-Left Arrow** to move between top menus once VO-M selects the menu bar.  \n- Use **VO-Tab** or **Tab** to move among buttons, search fields, cloud download icons, etc.  \n- When you activate **Purchased**, if nothing appears labeled \u201cPurchased\u201d, you might first see \u201ciTunes Store\u201d in sidebar or under a \u201cSidebar\u201d or \u201cView\u201d menu; ensure it\u2019s visible. (If iTunes Store isn\u2019t visible, go to Music \u2192 Settings \u2192 General, and enable \u201cShow iTunes Store\u201d.) ([macworld.com](https://www.macworld.com/article/3602209/how-to-enable-the-itunes-store-in-the-macos-music-app.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- If she uses multiple Apple IDs, make sure you used the one tied to the purchases.\n\n---\n\nIf you tell me which version of macOS you're using (for example, **Ventura**, **Monterey**, etc.), I can give you exactly what menu labels you'll hear with VoiceOver in *your* setup."

You *don\u2019t* need her profile set up separately, but you *do* need to be signed in with *her Apple ID* and have purchase sharing settings configured correctly (if applicable). The **Purchased** section should appear once you fulfill certain conditions.  \n\nHere\u2019s what to check, and how to move from **Family Purchases** to **Purchased**\u2014plus how to download *her own* items.\n\n---\n\n## What \u201cFamily Purchases\u201d vs \u201cPurchased\u201d means\n\n- **Family Purchases** shows you what everyone in the Family Sharing group has bought, *if purchase sharing is turned on*. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-euro/guide/mac-help/mchlc2b37692?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Purchased** refers to content bought specifically by the Apple ID that's currently signed in. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))  \n\nIf you only see **Family Purchases** and *not* **Purchased**, the system assumes you\u2019re looking at shared content. That can lead to confusion, because you may think you're getting her purchases, but you're actually seeing all shared purchases, mixed across family members.\n\n---\n\n## How to make **Purchased** appear (her own purchases)\n\nTo see her individual purchases (the \u201cPurchased\u201d section), try the following steps with VoiceOver. These are based on Apple\u2019s official instructions as of *April 2026*.\n\n---\n\n### Step-by-step via VoiceOver\n\n1. Open the **Music** app on your Mac.  \n   - VO: \u201cCommand-Space\u201d \u2192 type \u201cMusic\u201d \u2192 Return.\n\n2. Sign in with *her Apple ID*.  \n   - VO: Use VO\u2010M (Control-Option-M) \u2192 locate **Account** in the menu bar (VO-Right Arrow) \u2192 VO-Space to open \u2192 if not signed in, select **Sign In** \u2192 enter her credentials.\n\n3. Authorize the computer if prompted:  \n   - Account \u2192 Authorizations \u2192 **Authorize This Computer**.\n\n4. From the **Account** menu, select **Purchased**.  \n   - VO-M \u2192 locate **Account** \u2192 VO-Space \u2192 VO-Down Arrow \u2192 look for **Purchased** (not \u201cFamily Purchases\u201d).  \n   - If you *only* see **Family Purchases**, that means either:  \n     a) you're logged in with her Apple ID *and* Apple sees you're part of a Family Sharing group with purchase sharing on, OR  \n     b) you're logged in with *your* Apple ID, not hers.\n\n5. If you only see **Family Purchases**, try clicking or selecting the menu/pop-up near \u201cPurchased\u201d that lets you choose which person\u2019s purchases you want to see.  \n   - VO: When viewing **Family Purchases**, there should be a pop-up or drop-down allowing you to choose the family member whose purchases to view. Select *her name*. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-mide/guide/music/mus33f6a78c9?utm_source=openai))\n\n6. Once you have \u201cPurchased\u201d showing *her name*, go to the **Music** category (if it\u2019s not already selected), find the **Albums** or **Songs** tab, then choose \u201cAll\u201d or \u201cNot in My Library\u201d to show everything not already on the Mac.  \n\n7. Download:  \n   - VO: Use VO-Right/Left/Tab to navigate to cloud icons next to albums/songs.  \n   - To download all: scroll to the bottom of the list and look for **Download All** and activate it (with VO-Space). ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## What to check if **Purchased** never appears\n\nIf \u201cPurchased\u201d never shows up, or only \u201cFamily Purchases\u201d shows, check:\n\n- You are *logged in with her Apple ID*, not yours. Confirm via Music \u2192 Account \u2192 View My Account.  \n- The Mac is *authorized* for that Apple ID.  \n- Purchase Sharing is *on*, if family sharing is set up. The family organizer sets that. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-euro/guide/mac-help/mchlc2b37692?utm_source=openai))  \n- Her Apple ID is in the *correct country/region* for her purchases; if it\u2019s different, some purchases may not show. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-euro/guide/mac-help/mchlc2b37692?utm_source=openai))  \n- Purchases haven\u2019t been **hidden**. Hidden purchases do not show in *Purchased* until unhidden. You can check hidden purchases via the Account Settings \u2192 Downloads & Purchases \u2192 Manage Hidden Purchases. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\nIf you tell me her macOS version (Ventura, Monterey, etc.) I can give you the exact labels you\u2019ll hear with VoiceOver."

Here\u2019s what I found, plus step-by-step actions to hopefully fix the issue. This includes details from very recent Apple Support docs (April 2026) and verified sources. I'll also give you what to try *right now* with VoiceOver if possible.\n\n---\n\n## Key reasons the issue is happening\n\n1. **Signed into the wrong Apple ID**  \n   Purchases are tied to the Apple ID used when buying. If you\u2019re not logged in as her Apple ID, her purchases won\u2019t show up in *Purchased*. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-in/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **Mac not authorized**  \n   Even if signed in correctly, your computer needs to be authorized for her purchases. If not, it may only show shared purchases (Family Purchases). ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-in/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Hidden purchases**  \n   If some music was hidden in her purchase history (intentionally or accidentally), those will *not* show up under Purchased until you unhide them. ([idownloadblog.com](https://www.idownloadblog.com/2019/05/23/hide-unhide-itunes-purchases/?utm_source=openai))\n\n4. **Purchase sharing settings**  \n   If Family Sharing or Media & Purchases settings are misconfigured (for example, using a different Apple ID for media than for iCloud), you might only see shared stuff. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201454?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## What to do **right now** (with VoiceOver where possible)\n\nHere are steps to try\u2014VoiceOver-specific when dealing with the Music app or Settings:\n\n---\n\n### A. Verify you\u2019re signed in with *her* Apple ID in Music\n\n1. Open Music app.  \n   VoiceOver: Command-Space \u2192 type \u201cMusic\u201d \u2192 Return.\n\n2. Check the Apple ID account in Music:  \n   - VO-M (Control-Option-M) \u2192 Right-Arrow until **Account** appears \u2192 VO-Space to open.  \n   - Find **View My Account** or **Sign Out**, whichever applies.  \n   - If signed in as *your* ID, sign out \u2192 sign back in using *her* Apple ID.  \n   - If needed, **Account \u2192 Authorizations \u2192 Authorize This Computer**. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-in/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### B. Check for hidden music purchases\n\n1. In Music app\u2019s menu bar: **Account \u2192 Account Settings**.  \n   - VO: VO-M \u2192 find **Account**, VO-Space, then **Account Settings**.  \n\n2. Look for a section like **Hidden Items** or **Hidden Purchases**.  \n   - VO-Tab/VO-Right to navigate to that.  \n   - If you find hidden music, unhide them. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-in/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### C. Go to Purchased and make sure you select *her* purchases\n\n1. After being signed into her ID and confirming authorization:\n\n   - Menu: **Account \u2192 Purchased**.  \n     VO: Navigate to Account \u2192 Purchased using VO-M & VO-Space etc. \n\n2. When \u201cPurchased\u201d opens, if there\u2019s a pop-up or menu to choose the *person* whose purchases you want (Family member selector), pick her name.  \n   - Sometimes it\u2019s under \u201cFamily Purchases \u2192 choose member\u201d. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-in/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### D. Download available purchases\n\n- Once you have her purchases showing, use the **Music** tab/category (or \u201cMusic\u201d section) so only music shows.  \n- Scroll to the bottom, look for **Download All** \u2192 VO-Space to pick it. Or download individual songs via their cloud icons. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-in/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf none of that brings *Purchased* her Apple ID purchases up, there might be account-specific issues (country/region switch, licensing, etc.). If you tell me:\n\n- What macOS version you\u2019re using (Ventura, Monterey, something else)  \n- Whether you have iCloud/Sync Library turned on for Music  \n- Whether the purchases show up on her iPhone under iTunes Store \u2192 Purchased  \n\n\u2014I can help you tailor more deeply, or find Apple\u2019s fix if it\u2019s a bug."

([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-ie/108911?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### \u2705 Step 2: Sign in correctly on Music \u2192 Account\n\n- In the **Music** app on the Mac, sign in using *her* Apple ID under **Account \u2192 Sign In** (if you're accidentally signed in as your own). Also check **Account \u2192 Authorizations \u2192 Authorize This Computer**. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-mide/guide/music/mus33f6a78c9?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### \u2705 Step 3: Check hidden purchases\n\n- In the Music app menu: **Account \u2192 Account Settings** \u2192 look for **Hidden Purchases** or **Hidden Items** under Downloads & Purchases. If items are hidden, click **Manage** to unhide them. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-mide/guide/music/mus33f6a78c9?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### \u2705 Step 4: Trend dropdown in Family Purchases when available\n\n- Go to **Music \u2192 Account \u2192 Family Purchases**. In the view, there should be a dropdown or pop-up (often near the top, next to \u201cPurchased\u201d or \u201cFamily Purchases\u201d) that allows you to pick a specific family member. Choose her name. That should show her individual purchases. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-mide/guide/music/mus33f6a78c9?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### \u2705 Step 5: Region / Country consistency\n\n- Be sure her Apple ID region matches the region of the shared family group. If she changed countries, or if the family organizer\u2019s region differs, it can break visibility of her purchases. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-mide/guide/music/mus33f6a78c9?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf after those steps **Purchased** still doesn\u2019t show up or no matter whose name you pick you only see the same shared items, there may be something deeper: a bug, or maybe her purchases were made under *another* Apple ID (even unintentionally), or something wrong with the purchase server entitlements for that account.\n\n---\n\nIf you tell me **which version of macOS** the Mac is running (e.g. Ventura, Sonoma, etc.) and whether you believe she ever used another Apple ID to buy music, I can give you instructions more specific to your setup and help you nail down the exact cause."

Based on Apple's documentation and user experiences, here are more Catalina-specific possible causes and troubleshooting you can try. If none of these work, I\u2019ll also suggest what your best next steps are.\n\n---\n\n## Catalina-specific things to verify\n\n1. **Media & Purchases Apple ID might be different from iCloud / Family Sharing ID**  \n   Even if she uses one Apple ID to buy music, Catalina lets you use a *different* Apple ID for \u201cMedia & Purchases.\u201d If that differs from the one used for Family Sharing or iCloud, purchases may not show up in the Music app. Check this in Catalina under **System Preferences \u2192 Apple ID \u2192 Media & Purchases**. ([macworld.com](https://www.macworld.com/article/234912/how-to-unify-your-apple-ids-in-macos-for-media-purchases.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **Computer not authorized**  \n   Catalina's Music app still requires you to authorize the Mac for the Apple ID used to buy the content. If it\u2019s not authorized, the subsystem might only show shared (family) purchases. You can do this via **Music \u2192 Account \u2192 Authorizations \u2192 Authorize This Computer**. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Hidden Purchases**  \n   Some of her purchases may have been \u201chidden,\u201d which means they won\u2019t show under \u201cPurchased\u201d (or if \u201cPurchased\u201d isn\u2019t visible, under Family Purchases) until you unhide them. To check: **Music \u2192 Account \u2192 Account Settings \u2192 Manage Hidden Purchases**. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))\n\n4. **Region / Store changes**  \n   If her Apple ID changed country or region, older purchases made in another country may stop showing in Catalina\u2019s Music app because of store licensing. Apple mentions this can affect visibility of previously bought items. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-euro/guide/mac-help/mchlc2b37692?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## Additional actions you can try\n\nHere\u2019s what to do given Catalina\u2019s setup. These tasks are good to do even with VoiceOver\u2014just navigate menus with familiarity and patience.\n\n| Task | How to do it on Catalina |\n|------|---------------------------|\n| **Check Media & Purchases Apple ID** | System Preferences \u2192 Apple ID \u2192 \u201cMedia & Purchases\u201d section. See if the Apple ID shown matches hers. If not, sign out and sign in with her Apple ID. |\n| **Authorize Mac** | Open Music \u2192 in menu bar choose **Account \u2192 Authorizations \u2192 Authorize This Computer**. Use her Apple ID if asked. |\n| **Unhide purchases** | In Music app \u2192 **Account \u2192 Account Settings** \u2192 find \u201cHidden Purchases\u201d or \u201cHidden Items\u201d under \u201cDownloads & Purchases\u201d \u2192 Manage \u2192 Unhide. |\n| **Check Purchased vs Family Purchases view** | Music \u2192 in menu bar **Account \u2192 Purchased**. If using Family Sharing, look for a popup/menu next to \u201cPurchased\u201d to choose a family member. Choose her name. If that option doesn't appear, it's a key clue. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai)) |\n\n---\n\n## If you still do *not* see her individual purchases or \u201cPurchased\u201d\n\nIf none of the above work, here are things likely causing the problem, and what to do about them:\n\n- **Secondary or different Apple ID involvement**  \n  Even if you believe everything was done under *one* Apple ID, sometimes there is a \u201csecondary\u201d account logged in for Media & Purchases. Catalina supports using one Apple ID for iCloud and Family Sharing, and another for Media & Purchases. If the secondary ID is wrong, her purchases won\u2019t show. (Macworld article) ([macworld.com](https://www.macworld.com/article/234912/how-to-unify-your-apple-ids-in-macos-for-media-purchases.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **Store region mismatch**  \n  If her Apple ID has ever had its country/store set differently than what the Mac expects (or the Family Sharing organizer\u2019s region), purchases may not surface under Purchased or Family Purchases.  \n\n- **Software bugs**  \n  Catalina has had reports of bugs causing \u201cNo Purchases\u201d or missing Purchased items even when logged in correctly. Some people fixed this by **logging out and back in** of Media & Purchases, **restarting the Mac**, or **signing out and signing in** of the iTunes/Music store in Catalina. ([discussions.apple.com](https://discussions.apple.com/thread/253770936?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## What I\u2019d suggest doing next\n\n1. Check the **Media & Purchases Apple ID** from System Preferences. Make sure it matches hers exactly.\n\n2. Authorize the Mac for her purchases.\n\n3. Unhide any purchases.\n\n4. Log out of Media & Purchases in the Music app, then log in again (with her Apple ID).\n\n5. Restart the Mac.\n\n6. If none of that works, contact Apple Support. Explain that you are using Catalina, you are signed in with the Apple ID that made the purchases, and still only see Family Purchases, never Purchased. It\u2019s possible there is an account entitlements issue on their side.\n\n---\n\nIf you want, I can walk you through VoiceOver-friendly steps for each of these actions on Catalina, with exactly what you should hear and press. Do you want me to send those to you?"

        "content": "If **Family Sharing** is *not* enabled and you still only see **Family Purchases** instead of **Purchased** under the Music app on macOS Catalina, that\u2019s unusual\u2014but not unheard of. According to Apple\u2019s docs, you should be seeing **Purchased** (your own account\u2019s purchases) when [\u2026] \u201csigned in with the Apple Account that you used to purchase the music.\u201d ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai)) That means something still isn\u2019t lining up in the Music app or system settings.  \n\nHere are additional Catalina-based checks and strategies to troubleshoot this situation:\n\n---\n\n## Things to double-check on Catalina\n\n1. **Make sure you're signed into the *media/purchases* Apple ID properly**\n\n   In Catalina, your Apple ID can be used both for iCloud/family stuff *and* separately for Media & Purchases. Even if both entries are the same, check this in *System Preferences \u2192 Apple ID* to ensure the same Apple ID is being used under **Media & Purchases**. Also, in the Music app, check *Account \u2192 View My Account* to verify the Apple ID the Music app is using.  \n\n2. **Authorize the computer for that ID**\n\n   Even with the correct Apple ID, you must authorize the Mac to redownload or view purchased content. Go to *Music \u2192 Account \u2192 Authorizations \u2192 Authorize This Computer*. Once authorized, more of your purchased music should appear (or become available for re-download). ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))  \n\n3. **Check for hidden purchases**\n\n   Sometimes purchases are hidden, and those don\u2019t show under Purchased or Library. In Catalina, in the Music app, go to *Account \u2192 Account Settings*, then under *Downloads and Purchases*, locate **Hidden Purchases** (or Hidden Items) and \u201cManage\u201d to unhide individual or all items. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))  \n\n4. **Check view filters in Music Purchased**\n\n   Once you go to *Music \u2192 Account \u2192 Purchased*, there\u2019s usually a menu or filter that includes \u201cAll\u201d or \u201cNot in My Library\u201d etc. If you have a filter set wrong, or if it\u2019s set to show only family shared stuff (even though Family Sharing is off), some content might be hiding. Also, make sure \u201cAll\u201d is selected so you see everything, not just purchases already downloaded to your Mac. ([tunefab.com](https://www.tunefab.com/itunes/fix-purchased-itunes-songs-missing.html?utm_source=openai))  \n\n5. **Redownload missing purchases**\n\n   If you do find them when unhidden, you might need to manually re-download via the \u201cPurchased\u201d section. Since you\u2019re signed into the correct Apple ID and have authorized the computer, this should work. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-us/120552?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## If you still *can\u2019t* see her purchases\n\nIf after all those checks you *still* only ever see \u201cFamily Purchases\u201d and **never see \u201cPurchased\u201d**, it suggests something else is going on:\n\n- The Music app may be defaulting to showing Family Purchases\u2014possibly a display bug that persists even when Family Sharing is off.  \n- The appleid account has a discrepancy\u2014i.e. some purchases tied to an Apple ID that was merged or changed, or purchased under a different Apple ID at some point.  \n- There\u2019s a server-side issue with Apple\u2019s purchase services.  \n\n---\n\n## What to try next (step-by-step)\n\nHere\u2019s a precise workflow to follow; you can do this with VoiceOver if needed.\n\n1. System Preferences \u2192 Apple ID \u2192 verify that **Media & Purchases** shows her Apple ID.\n\n2. Music app \u2192 *Sign Out*, then sign back in explicitly using her Apple ID for Media & Purchases.\n\n3. Once signed in, Music app \u2192 *Account \u2192 Authorizations \u2192 Authorize This Computer*.\n\n4. Music app \u2192 *Account \u2192 Account Settings* \u2192 scroll to **Hidden Purchases / Hidden Items**, click Manage \u2192 Unhide all.\n\n5. Music app \u2192 *Account \u2192 Purchased* \u2192 check that \u201cAll\u201d is selected; also \u201cNot in My Library\u201d if available. See if \u201cPurchased\u201d shows (not \u201cFamily Purchases\u201d).\n\n6. Restart the Mac.\n\n7. If nothing appears: connect the Mac to the internet, check Apple Music / iTunes Store *System Status* page to ensure the iTunes Store and Apple Music services are fully operational\u2014sometimes server issues can hide purchases.  \n\n8. If still stuck, reach out to Apple Support. Give them these details:  \n   - That Catalina is in use  \n   - That you believe all purchases were by this Apple ID  \n   - That Family Sharing is off  \n   - That you\u2019ve authorized the computer and checked hidden purchases  \n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can guide you through these exact steps with what each VoiceOver announcement should say (important if you rely on those cues) so you can be confident you\u2019ve done them correctly.

Here are what to look for, common substitutes, and ready-made products you can buy:\n\n---\n\n## What kinds of vegetarian \u201cgelatin\u201d mixes / substitutes to use\n\nHere are the main plant-based ingredients people use instead of regular gelatin:\n\n- **Agar-agar**: Comes from red algae.

([bakingsubs.com](https://www.bakingsubs.com/ingredients/agar-agar?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Carrageenan**: Another seaweed-based gelling agent. Softer texture. ([thekitchn.com](https://www.thekitchn.com/vegetarian-and-vegan-substitutes-for-gelatin-tips-from-the-kitchn-189478?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Pectin**: Made from fruit husks (usually citrus), used for jams and softer jellies. Needs sugar + acid to gel well. ([weekand.com](https://www.weekand.com/healthy-living/article/vegetarian-substitutes-gelatin-18024129.php?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Konjac (glucomannan)**: A fiber from the konjac root. Sets cold, very powerful, used in Asian desserts. ([gelatinrecipes.com](https://gelatinrecipes.com/vegan-gelatin/?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Vegetable gums / starches**: Like xanthan gum, guar gum, tapioca or corn starch. These often don\u2019t give the same firm, \u201cjelly-like\u201d set, but are good for puddings or thickeners. ([vegfaqs.com](https://vegfaqs.com/best-agar-agar-substitutes/?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## Buying ready-made vegetarian gelatin mixes\n\nIf you\u2019d prefer a premade mix so you don\u2019t have to adjust or experiment too much:\n\n- **Agar-agar powder**: Look for it in health food stores, Asian markets, or online. Be sure the label says *100% agar agar*, *plant-based*, *vegetarian* or *vegan*. ([nowfoods.com](https://www.nowfoods.com/products/natural-foods/agar-powder?utm_source=openai))  \n- **\u201cUnflavored Vegan Jel\u201d**: A product made from vegetable gums that is designed to work like regular gelatin. Can often be used as a 1-to-1 substitute. ([thekitchn.com](https://www.thekitchn.com/vegetarian-and-vegan-substitutes-for-gelatin-tips-from-the-kitchn-189478?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## Tips for using the substitutes\n\n- Agar needs to boil to activate\u2014just dissolving in warm water usually doesn\u2019t work. ([bakingsubs.com](https://www.bakingsubs.com/ingredients/agar-agar?utm_source=openai))  \n- Substitution ratios vary. For example, agar powder often works 1:1 with gelatin powder, but agar flakes need different amounts. With gums and starches, you\u2019ll often use less. ([gelatinrecipes.com](https://gelatinrecipes.com/vegan-gelatin/?utm_source=openai))  \n- Texture may differ a bit\u2014often firmer or less \u201cmelt-in-your-mouth\u201d than animal gelatin.

Here\u2019s a breakdown and what steps you can take:\n\n---\n\n## Types of AA Credits & Who Can Use Them\n\n| Credit Type | Who Must Fly | Can Be Used to Book Tickets for Others? |\n|-------------|---------------|---------------------------------------------|\n| **Trip Credit** | Usually tied to the person who canceled or whose flight was changed. | **Yes**\u2014the credit holder can use it to book travel for *anyone* (not must be themselves). ([nerdwallet.com](https://www.nerdwallet.com/travel/learn/how-to-use-an-american-airlines-flight-credit?utm_source=openai)) |\n| **Travel Voucher** | Similar to Trip Credit in flexibility. | **Yes**\u2014vouchers generally can be used to book a flight for someone else. ([travelgoeat.com](https://travelgoeat.com/can-american-airlines-travel-credit-be-used-for-another-person/?utm_source=openai)) |\n| **Flight Credit** | Must be used by the *named passenger* on the original ticket. | **No**\u2014this type of credit cannot be used by another person; the ticket is locked to the original traveler. ([travelgoeat.com](https://travelgoeat.com/can-american-airlines-travel-credit-be-used-for-another-person/?utm_source=openai)) |\n\n---\n\n## What You Should Do\n\nTo use her credit:\n\n1. **Determine which type of credit she has**  \n   Look at the AA email she received when the credit was issued. It should say \u201cTrip Credit,\u201d \u201cFlight Credit,\u201d or \u201cTravel Voucher.\u201d Trip Credits and Vouchers will likely let you book for someone else. Flight Credits generally will not. ([aa.com](https://www.aa.com/pubcontent/en_US/customer-service/payment-options/travel-credit.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n2. **If it\u2019s a Trip Credit or Voucher**  \n   - Log in to **her** AA account (the one tied to the credit).  \n   - When booking a flight on AA.com, on the payment page select **\u201cApply available credits\u201d**. Use the credit as payment. She can put *your name* as the passenger. You don't need the ticket holder to be the one flying. ([nerdwallet.com](https://www.nerdwallet.com/travel/learn/how-to-use-an-american-airlines-flight-credit?utm_source=openai))  \n   - Enter *your* information as the traveler (full name, etc.). The ticket will be in your name. The credit is just to help pay\u2014it doesn\u2019t need to match the passenger name. ([nerdwallet.com](https://www.nerdwallet.com/travel/learn/how-to-use-an-american-airlines-flight-credit?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **If she has Flight Credit**  \n   - That credit *must* be used by her. You **cannot** use it to buy a ticket in your name.  \n   - If you want to use her credit, you\u2019d need to book the ticket in *her* name.  \n   - If better flexibility is needed, sometimes you might cancel or adjust bookings so that the amount becomes a Trip Credit instead, depending on AA policies. You can talk to AA customer service about that.

Check the date in the email or in \u201cTravel Credit\u201d in her account. ([aa.com](https://www.aa.com/pubcontent/en_US/customer-service/payment-options/travel-credit.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **Restrictions**: Credits generally **don\u2019t cover add-ons** like seat upgrades or baggage fees. Also there may be limits on how many credits can be applied to one reservation. ([aa.com](https://www.aa.com/pubcontent/en_US/customer-service/payment-options/travel-credit.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **Name on the ticket**: That needs to match the person traveling. Even if the credit is hers, you can book the *ticket* in your name if it\u2019s a Trip Credit or Voucher. If it\u2019s Flight Credit, it has to match her name. ([travelgoeat.com](https://travelgoeat.com/can-american-airlines-travel-credit-be-used-for-another-person/?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can help you check her credit details (just para by para), so you can see exactly what kind she has\u2014and whether it will work for you to use it.

Sign in to your **Rapid Rewards** account on the Southwest website or open the Southwest mobile app. ([support.southwest.com](https://support.southwest.com/helpcenter/s/article/expiration-of-flight-credits?utm_source=openai))  \n2.

If your flight credit isn\u2019t tied to your Rapid Rewards account, you can also use the **Check Travel Funds** page. You\u2019ll need the confirmation number from the canceled or changed flight and the passenger name exactly as it was in the original booking.

([forbes.com](https://www.forbes.com/advisor/credit-cards/travel-rewards/united-travel-credits/?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. **Find Travel Credit / \u201cFind your travel credits\u201d**  \n   On the same account page, there should be a button or link for **\u201cFind your travel credits.\u201d** You can use this to reveal any credits tied to your account, whether automatically stored or needing PIN/confirmation number inputs. ([consumerrescue.org](https://consumerrescue.org/guides/united-airlines-travel-credit-facts/?utm_source=openai))\n\n4. **Check \u201cMy Trips\u201d Page**  \n   Another useful place is the **\u201cMy Trips\u201d** area. Some credits are associated with canceled flights or changes, and here you often get a \u201cView Travel Credits\u201d option under My Trips. ([thepointsguy.com](https://thepointsguy.com/airline/united-airlines-flight-credits/?utm_source=openai))\n\n5. **Confirmations & PINs**  \n   For some travel certificates, you\u2019ll need the original email you received with the certificate, which should include a **PIN** or **confirmation number**.

([forbes.com](https://www.forbes.com/advisor/credit-cards/travel-rewards/united-travel-credits/?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## Specific Tools / Pages\n\n- **Travel Credit Quick Lookup (United Vacations)**  \n  This is specifically for credits from *United Vacations.* You\u2019ll need your reservation number + last name to check the balance. ([res.vacations.united.com](https://res.vacations.united.com/Booking/retrieval/TravelCreditQuickLookup.aspx?utm_source=openai))\n\n- **United TravelBank Balance**  \n  If your credit was issued through United\u2019s TravelBank (often via a credit card or as a refund), you can view that balance under your United account\u2014usually in the sidebar or under \u201cMy United.\u201d ([upgradedpoints.com](https://upgradedpoints.com/travel/airlines/how-to-use-united-travelbank-credits/?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you tell me whether your credit came from a canceled flight, a goodwill gesture, or something else (and roughly when), I can help you find *exactly* where yours is located and what steps are required to use it."
