  • Can I get original files back? Itunes wont sync new music, Help!!

    My computer had to be taken to the shop last week and the whole system had to be wiped and recovered. I forgot to tell them there was another file I wanted saved so I lost a lot of my music.
    I managed to download the free version of touchcopy and get my music back on to itunes. The music that I lost comes up with a question mark and wont play on itunes but is in ipod and plays fine. Is there anyway I can get the original files of these songs on to my computer as I cant make playlists or anything with these songs?
    Also in my ipod a few of the playlists have been screwed up and there are about 5-6 versions of 90s music, recently added etc that have nothing in them. Is there anyway to get rid of them?
    My main problem now is that itunes wont sync the new music that Ive just added (it wasnt on the ipod before). When i plug my ipod into my computer itunes tells me "sync is complete" and it also shows up with "do not disconnect" on my computer. How do I sync this music on to my ipod??
    Sorry for that incredibly long winded problem, I really hope someone can help me!!

    I know that sounds so obvious, but I can't figure out how. There are six folders in the iTunes Media folder. Under advanced preferences there's a box that says iTunes Media Folder location with a "change" or "reset" option. What do I change it to? I tried the reset option, but nothing changed. I was hoping it would magically get all my stuff in order but it didn't. I was scared to try the change option. Most of my library is also in my iPhone and iPad and in the right folders/places and  I'm scared to sync them with my Mac because I don't want them all screwed up. And the syncing through iDisc on my Mac isn't working because it can't find my iTunes Media folder and the six folders/documents in it.
    I'd appreciate a step-by-step if possible. Literally. I've been using computers for years and my Mac for a little over a year and never had problems with it until this. I also noticed that several times in iTunes help it says " don't change the folder name or location for iTunes Media." duh. Read that too late.
    Thanks

    My itunes on my PC as well as my other daughters PC all work fine.
    Tried to uninstall & reinstall etc.....what am I missing here?
    Running Windows 7 on this PC.....
    Thanks in advance!!

  • New Itunes not syncing new albums to Ipod

    Hi,
    I have added a couple of new albums to my Itunes but when I synch, everything looks ok, but one of the albums has not transfered to my Ipod. I do not have the grey boxes, the entires album is just not there.
    I have tried deleting the album and starting again and even restarting my computer. Itunes Match is turned off and my settings are so all albums should transfer, According to my device storage, there is not issue of space. I don't use Icloud.
    Im stumped, anyone know why its not transfering?
    Ive had nothing but problems with this new Itunes its very frustrating!
    Itunes and ipod touch 3rd gen, software are all up to date.

    iTunes has "lost" the music, OR the music was "red box" explicit and someone put parental controls on the iPad or computer to block the songs.
    If the music is lost, use iTunes 'Help' menu to find path to music.

  • New iphone & new iTunes wont sync, asks restore phone with no backup option

    Hi all.
    I have a brand new Toshiba and Windows 7, with a brand new iphone4 (first time I have had one). I downloaded the latest version of itunes this morning, and went to sync and back-up the two, but dramas started! The device is recognised with my number serial number and offers to upload videos, images wtc, but it wont let me sync or the like.
    The error message I get is 'iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPhone 'iPhone'. Go to the summary tab in iPhone preferences and click restore to restore this iphone to its factory settings.
    I dont want to restore as I will lose all data, as it wont allow me to perform a backup. I have been through all the recommendations provided on hte internet this morning, but have had no resolution (turn both devises off, restore iPhone), I just dont want to lose my contacts without being able to back up.
    Does anyone have any ideas?

  • Keep getting an error message and my new phone wont sync to my old Iphone 4 settings. The message"itunes has detected a iphone in recovery mode. You must restore the iphone before it caan be used on itunes." yet when i do i still get the same message!!!

    You have to restore the iPod, no ifs, ands, or buts...
    After iOS is installed you will be asked if you what to set it up as a new iPod or if you want to restore from a backup.
    If you have a good backup you can restore that and you're good to go.
    If you don't have a good backup, then you end up with a "clean" iPod....

  • ITunes wont sync new songs or charge.....

    I have an iPod mini and when I Plug it into my computer Itunes won't recognize my iPod to sync...Also my Ipod screen shows that it is charging or it shows that its fully charged and when I unplug it from the computer it didn't charge at all???...Please help

    i have it set up so that i can drag and drop files and they will copy...i know they are not showing up because the number of files stays the same after its done copying to the ipod...i just figured out the only way i can get it to work is if i create a new playlist then drag the files into there...but when i drag it to the music part of the ipod it wont work...what would be the cause of that/??

  • New itunes wont restore new iphone 5 from old phones backup

    My new iphone 5 refuses to restore from a backup of my old 4S using i tunes (latest version).
    It recognises it as a new phone, asks where to restore from,
    It starts the restore then freezes indicating 1 minute left,
    this then turns into 2 minutes, 3 minutes 4,5,6, and on and on
    I have about 20G of music on the old phone and i cloud will only accept 5Gig
    Any advice
    Thanks in advance
    Lisboy

    You're welcome.  If your phone is not showing under Devices on the left side of iTunes after connecting it, see the troubleshooting steps here:

  • New iTunes wont access my music files on my external HD

    ive tried using the file path on iTunes advanced settings and still no music

    will itunes reference the songs on the external drive without importing them?
    Open the Advanced section of the iTunes preferences and tell iTunes not to copy them to the iTunes Music folder; once done, drag them into the open iTunes window. Alternatively, you can change the iTunes library location to the external drive.

  • Itunes wont sync my music on 5S Apple YOU HAVE A BIG PROBLEM

    Hi,
    Apple YOU HAVE A BIG PROBLEM !!!!
    Having tried all proposed solutions found in the communities, but none of all didn't work !
    I had no problem at all on my previous 4S with IO 7.0.2 , but since last week I get my brand new 5S with IO 7.0.4 & its only a mess to sync all my music on this phone . Latest Itunes is installed on my computer.....
    All music albums are on my 5S, but marked with this red circle with a red dot in the middle ...
    It's a shame that no solutions works & that Apple didn't react to help all the customers to fix this bug!
    I hope that someone @ Apple will read this ....

    This may sound like a terrible solution, but have you tried switching the file format to .m4a (itunes default format) on all of your music?
    If not, it just might work.

  • My iTunes wont sync files to my iPhone 4

    Even if I delete something from my iTunes library it stays on my phone. I've restored my phone, reinstalled iTunes, checked everything for sync. It says sync is complete but nothing happens. Any ideas how to fix?

    What happens when you do this for the apps that do not sync?
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • I manually deleted my iphone photos through windows explorer now it wont sync new music or backup. any help please?

    i manually deleted my iphone photos through windows explorer now it wont sync new music or backup. any help please?

    If those photos were part of the camera roll, they were part of the backup as well and you can restore from the latest backup you made on the old computer. After that transfer the photos to the new PC, follow this article: iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    Then sync again to the new one, which will erase the phone again.
    You can also try to copy the backup folder from the old computer to the new one and see if the old backups get recognized, check this article to find the location on your PC:
    Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes
    If the photos were not taken with the phone, your data is gone, photos you sync from iTunes to the phone are not included in the backup.

  • Itunes wont sync music to iphone 5c

    itunes wont sync music to iphone 5c, skips music portion of sync and gets stuck on "waiting for changes to be applied"
    also wont remove cloud downloaded previously purchased songs during sync, i have restored the phone from my old one that was destroyed, but other than that sync pretty much doesnt work at all for photos or anything else.
    plenty of available space on brand new phone
    IOS 7.0.4
    itunes 11.1.3.8

    After days of getting frustrated I finally found a solution: Don't use itunes to sync music. After going through pages of possible solutions (restores, syncing albums one at a time, removing all music, deactivating accounts, making a call while syncing and various other things) as well as trying to contact apple support (Which was a joke--They wanted to charge me $19.00 to get help for a problem with their software), I change my Google search terms to "how to sync music without itunes" and  I found a program called CopyTrans Manager for free. It only took me a few minutes to add the new tracks to my iphone. It automatically organizes it the same way itunes would and you have the option to make your own playlists. Best of all it synced the first try! Itunes is now dead to me. Now I just have to figure out what I'm going to do with all the free time I have since I'm not going to be spending hours banging my head at my computer ready to throw my phone out the window.

  • My facetime wont turn on in my settings for iphone 4......also itunes wont download new update 4.3.2.....plz help

    my facetime wont turn on in my settings for iphone 4......also itunes wont download new update 4.3.2.....plz help

    Had exact same problem. Rang Apple support and various apple repairers. All of them said in effect, too bad, you'll have to lose everything since your last backup. It's a work phone with very important stuff on it and the latest backup was on a computer that had a virus. Convergence of crap :/
    Happened to talk to a friend who said to try replacing the battery. Did that. Problem fixed. All data saved.
    To all Apple support people: rather than say 'once it's in recovery mode you lose all data' try saying 'replace your battery and see if that works first'!!!!
