Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
As IO said before:
You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
I do not think it included audio books.

HT4818 I have installed bootcamp that worked properly. Then I have partitioned the OS X 10.8.2 and installed another OS X 10.8.2 and I have got two MAC boot options and Bootcamp disappeared from the Option menu. How can I boot Windows again and keep both

I have installed bootcamp by the bootcamp assistant and worked properly.
Then I have partitioned the OS X 10.8.2 and installed another Mountain Lion System and I have got two MAC boot options and Bootcamp disappeared from the Option menu. However, Bootcamp still remained in the Startup Disk in the System Preferences. When I tried to boot Bootcamp using the Startup Disk it did not boot and received a message that there is no bootable device. I have not lost any data and can read Bootcamp partition from both OS X systems. Please advise how can I boot Windows / Bootcamp again? Thank you.

Recommendation 1: Use a VM for this. It's essentially a giant C.F. to do this with native booting, and is potentially fragile.
But if you're going to ignore that and do this anyway, realizing that it can break anytime in particular with OS upgrades, and that it's very difficult to impossible to resize the three volumes once you've installed the systems:
1. create three partitions, setting each to be the size for OS X copy 1, copy 2, and Windows respectively. The Windows partition needs to be set to MS-DOS format (actually FAT32) which later in the Windows installer you'll reformat as NTFS. Do not use Boot Camp Assistant to resize/partition the disk, it simply won't work for this use case.
2. install OS X copy 1
3. install OS X copy 3
4. Use gdisk (available at sourceforge) which is a command line only application, to create a new hybrid MBR adding only the last partition (Windows) to the hybrid MBR and setting it to be bootable. As a concequence you will not be able to see/share either OS X volume from within Windows. The Windows NTFS volume will be visible from within OS X.
5. Install Windows to the only partition its installer should see (confirm size), you'll need to format it NTFS first, and I suggest using the fast format option if available.

Is there a way to get back all my purchased music if my hard drive crashed and I did not back it up on any external hard drive?

My computer crashed a couple of weeks ago and I have just redownloaded iTunes. I was hoping someone would be able to answer the question I have posted and give me instructions as to how to redownload if at all possible the music that I purchased.
Thanks!

Yes. Sign in to the iTunes store, click below Quick Links where it says Purchased and start downloading your previous purchases.
If you have content on an iPod then this is an alternative approach:
Recover media from iPod
See this post from forum regular Zevoneer for options on moving your iPod data back to your computer.

My music and videos disappeared from my iPod touch!!! :(

I just realized today that I've lost all my music and videos (movies, podcasts, etc.) from my iPod! I haven't connected it to our computer in quite a while, I've just been charging it with a wall-plug.
I did go onto wireless internet at the airport last week, but I don't know if that would have corrupted it?
The problem is, I can't re-load all the music and videos back onto my iPod, because the USB ports on my laptop aren't working, and that's where my iTunes are... Is there another way to transfer my iTunes content to somebody else's computer? Burning my songs on CD's isn't an option - i have 1500 songs, and I've been able to fit about 20 on a CD....
HELP please!!!

yes, same here.. my apps are still there, but music and videos are gone...
please, can anybody help?? i can't put the music back onto my iPod, because my usb ports aren't working... what can i do???

All my purchases made before February disappeared from "purchases". I want to reinstall an app but the store wants to charge me again!

I wanterd to reinstall Civilization V, but the button was with the price, not the word "install". I checked the "purchases" section and discovered thar all my purchases made before february 2012 are missing!
I have the store report showing thar I really bought the apps with the same user ID. What is happening? What to do?

They suggested trying to change the country back to see if it would be possible to download them again.
Yes, this is the proper work-around as a tech solution. Make sure you have your other purchases all downloaded cause you'll lose them from the cloud too whe you revert back.

I recently purchased a song from Itunes and it appeared in my library but won't play on my Iphone. I'd like to delete it from my Itunes and redownload it from my actual Iphone. How can I delete a song from my Iphone?

I just got a new computer so I can't get my Iphone to connect to it. I just want to use my actual Iphone to download songs from Itunes from now on but I already have this song downloaded to my computer so it's not playing on my phone. I want to delete it so should I sync my phone to the computer and delete it from Itunes on my computer then try to download it again on my phone?

Ipad got stolen and then disappeared from "Find my IPhone"

Hello friends.
Few days ago Igot my IPad stolen. Once I found that out I have attempted to track it via "Finde my Iphone" app. Well it was switched off. I have sent the blocking command with the password and message. Nevertheless my Ipad just disappeared from Iclouds.
Please tell me, does it mean that my IPad has been nulled?
Couse otherwise there is a problem as most of my SMS messages got dublicated from my Iphone to IPad, and that is really ot good (BTW Apple made a big misstake doing so, they should have asked user befor enabling that feature, many persons had problems due to that).
Your comments will be very appriciated! Thank you in advance!

ITunes won't sync all my purchased music to my iPhone 4

The music that was purchased on my iPhone was erased from my phone, but it's still on iTunes. When I try to sync it back to my phone, the playlist "Purchased from my iPhone" is listed is there but none of the music is there. It's not in my library either. I checked the box to sync it but nothing works, and the rest of my music is still on my phone. Please help!

replying to aissy55
It comes up with a 1428 error message sometimes, and sometimes it says that I have to restore my iPod. I have restored it many times, but it just keeps going in a circle and will not sync my songs back to the iPod.
hmmmm. if you're relentlessly getting a recovery mode message, then you might be having a Windows drive letter confusion. see the following document for troubleshooting suggestions with that:
"iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore"

Purchased movie on iTunes disappeared from library and iTunes Store.

I bought the movie Ice Princess about 5 years ago. I just now started to watch it again recently, but oddly it disappeared. I went to check my iTunes purchased movies and it's gone from there too. I went to check the store and it says that it is unavailable in the US, but is available in the Ukraine. Am I eligible to get my money back or a second download?

No, if the film is no longer in your country's store then you won't be able to redownload it, and you can't get a refund. You haven't got a copy of it on your computer's iTunes and/or on your backup of your downloads ? There is no guarantee that any item (including apps etc) will remain in a country's store, so ideally you'd be keeping and maintaining a backup of all of your downloads.
It's possible that the film studio will allow Apple to put the film back into the US store at some point, in which case you might then be able to redownload it

Purchased itunes store films disappearing from library and store.

I purchased 'Home Alone' last Xmas and now it has gone from my itunes library and no longer available to download in the UK store, does anyone know why?

This seems to be an issue with iOS 8.1.1. Contact iTunes Support as you shouldn't have to pay for ringtones you can't use.

My iPad mini was stolen, and it disappeared from find my iPhone. Does this mean it was wiped, or they just logged out of iCloud?

I want to know if they are still using my apps, because I have accounts that are device specific that I do not want being used by another person.

Hi sittiponder,
It may mean that they have taken the device offline. Doesn't mean it was wiped. Change your AppleID password immediately to protect your iCloud and iTunes information. Beyond that, there's not much else you can do unless they reinstate a Wifi connection, and have not wiped it.
If you see it on your Find My iPhone again, wipe it immediately!
Sorry for your troubles
