iTune purchases on old MacBook Pro that doesn't show up in new MacBook Air. I have an old MacPro from 2007 that I purchased music from iTunes back to 2015. Why does it not show up in my account or library since I purchased it through iTunes. How do I get it back into my account and on to my new MacBook Air?

purchases app store not showing I recently purchased a new MacBook and am wanting to transfer apps I have purchased. The AppStore does not have a "Purchased" option showing. The problem is not that it is empty - it is that it does not exist as a category. I have signed out and signed back in again. On another device I have gone in to Managed Devices and this computer is showing. If I go into Account it says "2 computers are authorised to play content purchased with this Apple ID" but I do not know how to look at what computers that is, or how to add this computer. The only option there is to remove all devices. It also says "2 devices are associated with this Apple ID and can download purchases or subscription content" there is an option to "manage devices" here - and it lists my phone and iPad. the option "Unhide any hidden, redownloadable purchases" has a "Manage" link - but when I press that it says "You must sign in to view your purchases". "Sign in" looks like a link - but pressing it does nothing. Any ideas how to fix this?
