Itunes restore asking for another disk

I backed up my Itunes library on a DVD this afternoon before doing a fresh windows install.
When I went to restore, it only restored about two-thirds of my music, then asked me for another disk.
The problem is, there is no other disk. Everything fit onto one disk.  According to the disk, it has all 600+ songs, but will only put on almost 400.
Can anyone help me? Or is anyone else expirencing the same issue?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
If you cannot get a component to uninstall properly move on to the next one, then delete the named folder. The reinstall should be successful.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • ITunes keeps asking for a disk while I am trying to uninstall

    I am trying to uninstall iTunes so that I can reinstall it.  However, it keeps asking for a disk.  Also I have tried to use Windows Cleanup Utility 7.2, but get an error when I attempt to run it.  I think I may have started uninstalling the components in the wrong order.  Any help is appreciated.  I am using Windows 8.

  • Windows wont start, Recovery Disk asking for another disk, only can with 2

    My son was surfing the web when IE stopped responding.  Window would not close so he held the power button until the laptop shut off.  When he tried to start laptop again, could only get as far as the windows loading bar, but it would not load.  After unsuccessfully trying a StartUp Repair we used the Recovery & Application Disk, holding down the C. After it appeared to run succesfully we got a boot manager missing error.  So we tried the Recovery Disk again.  Now it just continues to ask for additional disk but the Recovery Disk set is only two disk set.  This is a L305-s5875 Satellite that we have had for about 11 months.  If anyone has any suggestions we would greatly appreciate it. 

    Try cleaning disk with alcohol,with soft tissue paper.That is what i did to get disk to work.
    Also try and hit start and F12 and then change boot menue to Cd/Dvd insted of hardrive
    and then hold down c or try without holding down ckey.As a last try start cimputer and hold
    gown the statr buton and 0 (ie zero)  together for 1 min and see what happens.
           Yours trily ,

  • When Burning a movie, it keeps asking for more disks

    I have finally gotten around to trying to burn a movie and after I have everything set to go. I click on burn once then the second time to start burning. It asks for the disk, which I insert. Goes through I believe stage 3, then spits out the disk and asks for a new one. I did this even though I thought it was strange because I obvioulsy can only use one disk to view the movie. So I put the new disk in and let it go a while later it asked for another disk. At this point, I cancelled the burn. Help what am I doing wrong. I have looked through all the help topics and the burning section is very vague.

  • After a restore,it keeps asking for another backup itunes login ?

    After a restore,it keeps asking for another backup itunes login ?
    This never happened before the v8 upgrade ?
    How do i stop this ?

    Enter the Backup Encryption password that you created.
    If you did not enable the backup encryption, the backup is corrupt and cannot be used.

  • For restoring from backup itunes is asking for password

    Hi Experts
    for restoring from backup itunes is asking for password and i didn't give any password when backup was going on not even i checked on encrypt my backup.
    please help me ASAP

    See:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3057884
    I too have experienced the "blame everything but Apple products/software" indoctrination of the Apple phone support techs!
    I have a feeling that iTunes automatically switches encryption on and puts as default a previous iTunes store password but as I don't leave mine the same all the time (and don't feel the need to remember historic passwords that I'm not using to secure anything against) I have no clue what it is.
    Good luck trying to get useful advice on here relating to the issue, it will go along the lines of...
    1) Its your fault for setting it and forgetting the password,
    2) We know everything and theres definately no way iTunes would set backups to encrypt without your knowledge and...
    3) Theres no fix for this issue, you might be able to save some of your data, but most will be lost (unless you specifically ask for an iTunes redownload exemption/ token then your purchases could be lost too).

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

    In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

  • Hi, I would like to install my Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard - I got the serial number and disk, but you are asking for another product and serial number that I dont have? What should I do?

    Hi, I would like to install my Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard - I got the serial number and disk, but you are asking for another product and serial number that I dont have? What should I do?

    The serial number that you might have is an upgrade version & it will be asking for a previous qualifying version serial number.
    The issue can be different too, please contact Adobe Support for resolution: http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6

  • HT1766 I am trying to restore my new iphone from a previous backup but itunes is asking for the backup password. But I never had one.

    itunes is asking for a password for the backup that I did not set. I can NOT set up my new iphone and restore it from an old backup. What can I do?

    This message is asking for the password that was added when the backup was first created IF you don't have this passcode you will be unable to restore from this backup.
    Good luck Friend.

    What can I do, iPad disabled/lockout and iTunes keeps asking for password, I cannot restore...iTunes grays out backup and restore but my iPad and iPod shows on Apple etc..???

    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    2. Connect USB cable to computer, leave the other end alone
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad
