If you trashed all your music in your itunes and emptied the trash can you get them back?

I have trashed all the "orginial files" of my itunes songs and emptied the trash. I did not know I was deleting the files when I did it. I thought they would still play in my itunes but it just pops up and says the original file for this song cannot be found. Is there any way to get these files back?

I assume that you have no backup, all songs that you purchased may be downloaded again from the iTunes Store (Purchases section), any that you ripped maybe lost. Plugging your phone in now may well remove the music from the phone rather than adding it to iTunes.
From now on, backup.

"Quicktime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires Quicktime version...

"Quicktime version 7.0d0 is installed, iTunes requires Quicktime version 7.0.3 or later.
Please re-install iTunes."
This just popped up when I opened iTunes today. So I re-installed itunes from the website. I try and open it and the message keeps coming up. I have tried re-installing several times and restarting my computer, but it keeps coming up.
Any help fixing this problem would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Yeah same here, all started when I tried to upgrade
to version 6.

WHENEVER i LOAD ITUNES i GET A POP UP STATING THAT iTUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING AND NEEDS TO CLOSE. wHEN wINDOWS FINDS THE PROBLEM, THEY WILL NOTIFY ME. tHIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. i UNINSTALLED AND INSTALLED TWICE AND IT STILL HAPPENS. HOW DO I CORRRECT

I keep getting a pop up on Itunes when I try to add a file saying that ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING AN NEEDS TO CLOSE. W indows will notify me when corrected. iuninstalled and reinstalled 3 times to no avail. how do i fix?

a further message box states that Data Execution Prevention has closed the program.
Try updating your QuickTime to the most recent version. Does that clear up the DEP errors in iTunes?

Music spontaneously starts, stops, stutters at random and I'm not even using that app. Repeated attempts to pause the song and close the app have no affect. Just keeps popping on and off randomly no matter what I'm doing at the time.

How do I eliminate this glitch? Music spontaneously starts, stops, stutters at random and I'm not even using that app. Repeated attempts to pause the song and close the app have no affect. Just keeps popping on and off randomly no matter what I'm doing at the time. I tried double-clicking the Home button which brings up all of the active apps, touched and held the Music icon until all the icons started wiggling, tapped the Close icon in the upper left corner of the Music app to close the app completely, but the app is still open and still randomly stuttering. I did notice that the play button icon flashes in the upper right corner of the screen when this happens and it appears and disappears in concurrence with the Music app stuttering. When the music starts, the icon appears and when it stops, the icon disappears again. When the music stutters on and off, the icon appears and disappears rapidly and in sync with that random glitch. This just started today for no apparent reason. I turned the iPad off, waited 30 seconds and turned it back on. As soon as it was finished starting up, the same music glitch began again immediately. I'm using iOS 6.1.3.

Well, no one seems to have any answers or ideas for me, I'll update what I've been able to accomplish.
I reloaded all 14 disks in the time frame of watching Lord of the Rings on Fri. nite.
Funny thing is, the first disk pulled the info from the online store! Hooray!
Wait-then all the next 13 could find no information online...what the heck is up with that? So I MANUALLY assign each disk a new track # to co-inside with each disk, spent about 2 hours doing that.
But still, itunes tells me my playlist is too large, there's not enough space on the ipod. so I unchecked 1 1/2 disks (I'd listen to 1/2 of disk 1 previously) and voila! there's my ipod full of my book. Finally. But what a lot of bother just to keep things in order!

I just factory restored my iPod 5 touch and when I plug it into iTunes to restore the back up I made, iTunes becomes unresponsive and closes. But when I unplug the iPod, it starts working again. Using Windows 8 and iTunes is updated, please help.

I just factory restored my iPod 5 touch and when I plug it into iTunes to back it up, iTunes stops responding and closes. This only occurs when the iPod is plugged in, when it isn't, iTunes works fine. I am using Windows 8 and iTunes is updated (as of this posting). Any suggestions on getting around this? Thank you.

Also, when I put it through the Windows diagnostic, it lists an "incompatible program" WHILE my iPod is plugged in.

HT1386 I just updated my iTunes and now all of a sudden my iPhone is not syncing into iTunes. When I plug my iPhone into my computer, a thing pops up on my iPhone saying "Do you trust this computer" and I press "Trust" but it still doesn't do anything.

Both itunes and quicktime just stopped running

Just recently, my itunes just stopped working. At first it was perfectly fine, then it couldn't read anything from my ipod, then it just wouldn't start up. I kept receiving a message "Itunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration". So I went first to the itune discussion forum to try and reset the audio, but there was no quicktime audio tab. so I tried to run quicktime and i recieved this message " Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Program Files\Quicktime\QuicktimePlayer.exe
This application had requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please Contact the application's support team for more information.

I kept receiving a message "Itunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration"
Okay. That one is most commonly caused by a problem with your QuickTime. (iTunes uses QuickTime for audio and video playback.) So that's consistent with the error that you're getting when you try to launch QuickTime.
So let's try swapping out your QuickTime, as per the following document:
iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes has detected an audio configuration problem

This indicates the device is in recovery mode.
Connect it to a computer running iTunes and restore it.

Just brought the MacPro and first time using iTune and Yes I authorized the computer. But for a few purchased songs, only 30 seconds of the song plays and for one song off an album, a pop comes up saying I need to authorized the computer, but I do this and it says it is authorized already. I click on the song to play it and this process repeat (saying it is not authorized, then saying it is already authorized)

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

Did you try to uninstall and reinstall the iTunes back in?

Itunes won't load shared library just loads and closes

Enabled home sharing, shows "John Doe's Library". When I click on it, it says "Loading John Doe's Library" after about 10 seconds it jumps back to my main library and won't load John Doe's library. Help!!!
*Itunes is updated, tried restarting, John Doe can open my library on his computer.

Thanks for the tip but holding the option key didn't seem to do anything at all. I'm not sure how to navigate to my library file (is this all done in iTunes or the Finder?) It just launched iTunes with no mp3's listed, all the preferences remain and there is no welcome screen as if it's the first time I've run iTunes and no mention of a corrupt file.
This is really bizarre to me. My music library is far too large to drag and drop all the files into iTunes every time I want to update my iPod.

ITunes and QuickTime Failing to Open

Hi
I have just been forced to buy a new hard drive as my previous one failed totally unexpectedly. Hence, my OS (XP Pro) is newly installed, as is all my other software. Having downloaded and installed iTunes 6 I tried to initiate it but it fails to open. I can see the iTunes.exe in processes but it will not close when I try to kill it. It locks with a memory usage of 12,848 K every time. I can kill all other iTunes/iPod processes but not the iTunes.exe. My registry has no errors, I have no spyware (according to the MS AntiSpyware Beta) and no viruses.
I have all the essential updates for XP Pro plus a selection of optional ones. My hardware drivers are also up to date.
From a quick browse of the forums it seems that Norton Internet Security 2005 might be to blame for my problems. One of the pieces of advice I read was to use AVG software as an alternate (which I have used before and liked) as Norton IS 2005 stops iTunes from loading. I am willing to do that as a short term option, but NIS has always been my security system of choice and I would prefer to have the option to keep using it.
What I would like to know is whether it is true that Norton IS 2005 causes this conflict and if there is a way around it without changing my choice of security or is NIS 2005 totally incompatible with iTunes? I may well be upgrading to NIS 2006 soon and would also like to know if this issue will reoccur if I do. The current conflict also seems to hugely slow down my shutting down speed.
I hope you can quickly resolve or answer my questions.
Thank you for your time.

Hi blaccrichard,
This may help you. Turn NIS 2005’s Personal Firewall OFF, (turn it OFF Permanently until your ready to turn it back on) then click CONFIGURE. ( Might be a good idea to disconnect from the Internet at this stage)
Under the PROGRAMS tab remove any reference to Apple iTunes or iTunes or iTunes Helper Module or anything related. and reboot.
After coming back go back to NIS 2005’s Personal Firewall, click CONFIGURE. Under the PROGRAMS tab click ADD at the bottom, a SELECT A PROGRAM window will pop up. Add the following files one at a time, iTunes.exe, iTunesHelper.exe, QuickTimePlayer.exe, qttask.exe, QTInfo.exe. The last 3 are found in your Quicktime folder where that is in your system. Click OK. Turn NIS 2005’s Personal Firewall ON, and try starting iTunes again.
It seems the Quicktime files were never automatically entered into NIS 2005’s Personal Firewall allowable programs listing. Adding them manually should help. I also noticed that from my previous version of iTunes the program listed in the Firewall was named Apple iTunes and not iTunes after I upgraded to 6.

ITunes and Quicktime will not start on new PC using Vista

Hi everyone,
I just bought a new PC using Vista "Home Premium" edition. No previous version of iTunes on PC. I downladed iTunes 7.6. When I try to start iTunes Windows error msg says "iTunes has stopped working check on-line for a solution and close the program". When I click on the link provided it just brings me back to the same page where I already downloaded iTunes 7.6! When I try to start Quicktime I get the same error msg.
Any suggestions on how to fix the problem?
Thank-you in advance for your help.
Nat

I had the exact same problem. Just use this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717
What ended up happening for me was that it was a user-specific problem. For that, just follow these steps (taken from the above article):
Remove iTunes Plug-ins
third-party iTunes plug-ins can cause many issues, particularly if the plug-in has not been updated to be compatible with new versions of iTunes. iTunes plug-ins are located in the following location:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes Plug-ins
Remove iTunes Preference files
Some of the files that iTunes uses to store settings and preferences may be corrupt and cause issues. iTunes has two folders where preferences are saved. Move one of them to the desktop and test to see if the issue persists. If it does, move it back and remove the second folder. The location for the two preference folders are:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
Hope this helps.

ITunes and QuickTime will not work..Yeah, another one

Despite my best efforts to try to solve my problem on my own and not both you kind people, I've been working on and off at trying to get my iTunes working, with no positive results at all. It's honestly been so long, I don't recall what might have sparked the issues, but every time I try to open iTunes or QuickTime they will begin to open but fail, bringing up the common windows error message:
iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
QuickTime Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
So far, I have totally deleted both iTunes and QuickTime twice from my computer- first just through Add/Remove Programs pathways, then more in depth with Registry Crawler to try to remove any traces of the programs- all before re-installing the two programs. Both times have failed, still leaving me unable to open either program, so I've broken down and come here- hoping to find anyone willing to lend a hand to help fix this issue so that I can finally listen to my music the way I used to.

Perfect information, thanks.
That combination is almost always caused by some application stashing old QuickTime componentry down in your system files. (Codec packs and video converters are the usual suspects, although some Games might do it too.)
Let's go looking for the old stuff.
1. Open My Computer from the desktop or Start menu.
2. In the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
5. Click OK.
Now in My Computer, open your C drive.
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "system32" folder.
What files and/or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file/folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Itunes and quicktime just pop up and close...
