You can easily manage an iTunes music download to computer. This is the fastest way to download the entire contents of your library onto your computer.
How to do that:
1. Open iTunes on your computer.
2. In the menu bar at the top of the screen, click "Account".
3. From the drop-down menu, select "Check Available Downloads".
4. If prompted, please enter your Apple ID and password.
5. iTunes will automatically search for and download all purchased music files that have not been saved on your computer.
You can also set this to run automatically. Go to "Edit" > "Preferences" > "Downloads", and then select "Always Check Available Downloads" so that it will search for missing files every time you open iTunes.
