New itunes is trying to wipe the ipod. But have many many playlists (many hours making) which I want to save. Any help would be appreciated.

If you want to just extract the playlists from your iPod, plug it in iTunes. When it appears under devices, right->click on it and choose Export Playlists. Save them to a location such as your desktop and them import them into your library once you have copied and imported all of your music back into it.

Recover lost deleted corrupted music files tracks from iTunes match icloud

Just spent an hour on Apple's tech suypport line, all to figure out how to recover lost/deleted/corrupted music files/tracks from iCloud / iTunes Match. Here's how to do it:
ASSUMPTIONS: You're in iTunes on your computer, logged into your iCloud account.
Within iTunes, in the left-hand pane, select your Music library. Alll your tracks should appear in the right-hand pane. Those that are missing from your disk should be marked with an asterisk icon to the left of the track. Do the following...
...select all the missing/lost/deleted tracks (using the option button), and hit the delete button.
NOTE: when the delete dialog box comes up, make sure you do ***NOT*** click the "Delete from iCloud" selection!!!
...once deleted, select all the same tracks again, then hit the right mouse button, then select "Download".
All the tracks should start downloading, one by one, from iCloud.
NOTE: If I were you, I'd perform this operation on discrete chunks (no more than 500 at a time), just to be safe.
Good luck!

You can also recover the missing tracks from the backup you are keeping on an external HDD. You are backing up, aren't you?

HT203200 Corrupted music files

It's the first time I've ever experienced problems (that I know of) with corrupted music files from iTunes. I have three incomplete music files that were downloaded. What do I do to get these corrupted files replaced with complete files?

Thanks for replying so quickly Winston,
However, I can't find where I can 're-download' these songs. According to the purchased window for the selected album, these files were 'downloaded' and there doesn't appear to be an option for me to use to re-download.

Selected from my iphone "Buy more ringtones"and it has dowloaded as a music file how do i get it to be a ring tone which is what should have happened. Any ideas on how to fix this?

selected from my iphone "Buy more ringtones"and it has dowloaded as a music file and is now in itunes on my laptop and in music on my iphone. How do i get it to be a ring tone which is what should have happened in the first place. Any ideas on how to fix this? As in itunes I cannot see how to a) change it to a ring or b) drag across to the right area...
I simply followed the prompts on my iphone 4s and would have expected it to end up as a ring tone.. any help, guidance, advice welcome...

How to remove corrupted music files?

I had a list of music files in my gallery. I wanted to remove all, then i marked all n deleted but then it shows me 'System Error'..
so i tried to deleted them off through memory card. Files deleted but still appears in my gallery. Tried to delete again but this time it shows Files Corrupted.
pls, I need some adviseon how to completely remove them.
Thanks.

My new 5800 had the same problem.
I fixed it like this:
- first used the Content Copier in the OVI suite to backup the memory card.
- then go into the FileManager application on the phone, select the memory card and then under Options->Memory Card Options select "Format". This will wipe all the data off the memory card.
- Then I restored the memory card from the backup using the ContentCopier again (otherwise you end up losing all the Nokia Maps)
- Switched the phone on and off again.
- Going into the music player, it came up with a message like "Looking for music files" or something.
- Once this had finished, all the working music tracks were back in the library but the corrupt ones were gone.
No other problems that I can see after doing this.
regards

How can I restore a corrupted music file from iTunes?

one of my music files cut off before the end, I erased it from my MacBook Pro and my iPhone 4g and was able to restore it on my iPhone by accessing purchased music but cannot get it back on my MacBook Pro.

Corrupted music files not even the support can fix it

Try to figure this out.
1 - I had an iphone 3GS where i had music files.
2 - I got an iphone 4
3 - I copied all the songs i had on my 3Gs to the 4
4 - They all work fine
5 - When i copy new songs on my 4 ALL of them are corrupted
6 - When i play them on my computer all of them ARE NOT corrupted
The 3GS has gone i can't test on it.
Now, why old songs works fine on the iphone 4 but when i get new songs them are not working, but they do work fine on my computer? Hardware problems but the songs i had on my 3GS do work fine, if it was the hardwere them all should be corrupted, corrupted files but they all work fine on my computer, so they are not corrupted, transfering files from the computer to the iphone but then why only the new ones are still corrupted, where is the problem? i don't get this fixed i give up the iphones and move to android, i have enought or wasting money, the support has no idea how to fix it.Thanks.

Missing Music Files - How Can I Retrieve Them???

I opened my computer this morning and was shocked to find everything in my iTunes library was gone, and all the default settings had been restored. I attempted to do a search for my music files, and found nothing, but the strangest thing is I still have the same amount of hard space available, which leads me to believe that my files are still somewhere on my computer, but I can just not see them forr some reason. Can I find my files, and if so how? I also tried to connect my iPod touch in the hopes that i could restore the files from there, and my computer did not even register that the iPod was connected.

Could you please give me the exact product number for your computer? What version of Windows are you using?
If you need help finding it, you can use the following link:

Corrupted music files and won't play on external speaker

My new Touch is starting more and more to corrupt some of the music files with pops and jitters and silence. It will also occasionally go into a mode where it will not play on internal speaker. It has no volume bar either. I have to reset all settings to get it back working. I noticed this started after connecting to a blue tooth system in my car. (Ford's Sync system) I don't know if the IPod is going bad or if the bluetooth connection caused problems. I won't do that again! Ford's Sync acted unhappy too. Any suggestions are really appreciated.

Note that the corrupted music is now when I am listening to head phones not on the Ford Sync. Looks like others are having trouble with Ford Sync?

Cant delete corrupted music files off of iTunes?

I recently downloaded the Hoenn Pokemon Soundtrack, and along the process I got a couple of errors saying there was a connection issue when trying to download certain songs. When everything was done, I had certain songs with a little beside them that wouldn't play at all... I don't know how to get rid of them so I can reinstall them. Can anyone help me?

I have this same issue. I can't delete these music files that are half way downloaded, unfinished and aren't able to finish downloading anymore. How do I do it.

IPhone 3GS Corrupted music files

After upgrade to iTunes 10.2.1 the phone lost all data and can't restore it. I got the firmware back in the Apple store and then return files but all music files are corrupted. Originals in the computer are correct but in iPhone they have about 30 seconds pause in every piece. I try to reload iTunes and empty and reload music library but it doesn't work.

It may mean that the header of the file or some metadata information is not consistent.
Many times people add stuff to the metadata that's not supported by the standard. Mostly on files on unknown origins.
Corrupted means that there is something wrong with the file. It may not be in the actual audio stream part of the file but it could be in the metadata, the file header or other parts.
When you re-encode the NMM will likely "fix" those errors.

I recently bought a Nokia E63. It seems that in those 4 years Nokia did not solve this, because I have exactly the same problem.
