I downloaded a movie onto my iPod and lost about 500 of the songs in my library. How can I get them back?
How can I retrieve the lost songs on my ipod . . . and p.s. the movie didn't even work on the ipod!
Hook up your iPod, there should be a selection somewhere that allows you to sync the iTunes purchased content ONLY back into your iTunes from the iPod.
Non-iTunes purchased content needs a third party utility, look at iLounge or elsewhere for it.
As always maintan a backup of your content on external medium, cd/dvd/external drive as Apple will not redownload content.
You bought it, your responsible for it's preservation.

I have a macbook pro and I connected a new iphone to my computer. Somehow all my pictures in the iphoto app deleted. How can I get them back, and no I do not have my TimeMachine On. Please help!
If you are running Lion then all drivers are distributed through Software Update. You do not need to install anything, other than to install the printer in System Preferences > Print & Scan. If you already added the printer while it was connected using USB, you might want to delete it and set it up again wirelessly to avoid confusion. Or, give them two distinct names e.g. "Photosmart D110 (USB)" and "Photosmart D110 (wireless)".
All scanning functions are now performed using Preview, but you can also access the scanner through the same Print & Scan preference pane, or with Image Capture.
This HP document may help explain how driver software is distributed now:

I updated my Macbook, and All of my apple desktop pictures were deleted. How can I get them back?, I updated my Macbook, and All of my apple desktop pictures were deleted. How can I get them back?
Oh!
First thing I think would be to do a search for the folder in case it's somehow got moved.
Failing that, you can retrieve the folder from your original installer disc using Pacifist.
Insert the disc (don't boot from it) and open the installer package with Pacifist. Navigate to the Desktop Pictures folder (might be a bit more fiddly to find in the package structure). When you find it, select the folder, right-click (or ctrl-click) and select 'install in default location' from the context menu.
Exit Pacifist and eject the disc.
Best of luck! -
I updated my iPhone 4s with the ios 7.0.6 software and lost all my ringtones I purchased through Itunes. How do I get them back?
Did you fail to save them to your computer before updating?
If so, then you can try contacting itunes support and asking them to allow a redownload. -
I have a MacBook in Japan. I had to reinstall my system using an older version of the disc that came with my computer because I was locked out and now I can't get back any of my purchased applications, not any of the software updates. On my account it shows the purchases. How can I get them back? None of the websites, such as iTunes seem to explain that...
Thank you in advance,
ErikaGo to an Apple store or authorized Apple service provider.

I had to change my icloud account and all of my contacts disappeared from my phone contacts.
How do I get them back???? I lost hundreds of important personal and business contacts.
I tried to sync it when I got home with my Mac, but still all of my contacts are gone.
Where the heck are they? Why did they go? How can I get them back?Do you have an iCloud back up as well? If so restoring from there may be an option

I switched to iPhone 5C and lost over 150 iTunes I've paid for! How do I get them back?
Lost over 100 purchased iTunes when I switched to 5C from 4. How do I get them back?
You sync your device to iTunes and resync the music.
If the music is not in your iTunes library, log in with your Apple ID & password and download your past purchases, and then resync.
Or, you can download previous iTunes purchases directly to your device, via wi-fi. -
In Itines my albums seem to have seperated and instead of all the songs being listed under the one Album nake the same album name has a few here and then again another few. All the sings are there but if I play an Album I only get somoe of the songs. Is there a way of putting them back together without repoading them from scratch?
Generally setting a common Album title and Album Artist will fix things.
For deeper problems see Grouping tracks into albums.

Contacts and calendar on the phone are gone. How can I get them back?
I have sync my iphone with google contacts and now the pre-existing data, contacts and calendar entrys are missing on the phone. The contacts from google contacts are there but none of existing contacts and dates. Can I get them back? or are they gone for good?
Well, certainly if you had 3 years of photos you have been importing them off the phone to your computer as recommended. Just synch them back.

My daughter bought a new ipod touch and when synced received the contacts from my iphone. She deleted the ones she didn't want on her ipod and now they are gone from my iphone. I have the cloud and i thought back up on itunes. I have tried to re-sync and no luck. How can I get my contacts back?
Your problem is that she used your icloud ID to connect to icloud and thus had all your data synced to her device. Contacts are not saved in a backup to icloud, since they are stored independently in the Contacts section of icloud. If someone deletes them, they are gone. If you had them on the PC would they be available in some backup you frequently make of the PC?

i have an ipod touch.
i had 300 odd songs on. i do not have the songs on my laptop. i wanted to add the songs without getting rid of the currnet ones.
without knowing , i just synced my ipod as usuall and my old songs were deleted. is there anyway in the world i could get those songs back ?!
i am devistated! those songs bought me so many memories ! please help asap !!! x
hannah xThe iPod is not a storage device, all songs should reside on a computer and you can only sync to one machine. However, if these songs were purchased from iTunes you can reload them (see link). If not, and you have no backup, then they are gone.

We got a new computer and have logged in to Itunes, but where did my music go? How can we find it?
They will not magically appear on another computer.
Your music will only be where you put it.
Copy it from the old computer or your backup copy of the old computer.
You buy one and only one download. It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
Hope all goes well. -
iv tried plugging into laptop and going to my computer then iphone but it only brings up photos taken on the phone. Any help would be great.
The iPhone will temporarily store items in iCloud as a backup, but only those photos taken with the phone.Even then there are limitations. iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
iOS5: iCloud: Backup and restore overview - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4859 - "The following items are not backed up to iCloud. You can sync these items with a computer using iTunes:
* Music, movies and TV shows not purchased from the iTunes Store
* Podcasts and audio books
* Photos that were originally synced from your computer"
It is assumed you maintain a backup of your computer on a hard drive somewhere should you need to recover items you kept on the computer and transferred to the phone.
One of these might help:

Do you have a current backup of your phone, if you do then restore to that backup.
If you don't then sorry your pics are gone.
