Updated to ios 5.0.1 but the icloud doesnt recognise that I bought any music on my ipod touch before I updated, how can I get this music back?

So, pretty much, I hadnt updated my ipod for quite sometime...and it wouldnt let me take music from my ipod onto my computer (now running the latest itunes) When I finally decided to update everything, the information about icloud said that it could download previously purchased music etc. So, I figured it would all be fine, as I assumed all my music, as Ive always used the same account, would overall be saved onto that in someway or another, and it could at least make it realise that Ive already downloaded things? so, I updated, my ipod was wiped except for photos, and now I cant get any of my previously purchased music, videos, or apps....however...I really care about the music most of all. I've read help sections millions of times...but I cant find any that acctually help me (none of the apple ones I have found have even mentioned the fact that theres NOTHING in the purchased bar) I tried downloading something else and that works fine on this new 'icloud' thing. Pretty much, I am acctually terrible with technology...and I probably should never assume things ever again...but if you have any idea what I could do to help me...that would be much appreciated!

get the order number from itunes account "Purchase History" & then send a mail to itunes store from following website. www.apple.com/support/itunes/ They will provide you exception to redownload because its Apple's problem

  • HT1660 I I had to get my ipad2 replaced as cracked. Bought replacement in apple shop but when I got home the transfer of data that assistant did from old iPad to new was not available. How can I get this back

    Can someone hep I've lost all music and photos from m ipad2 after it was replaced. Previous iPad2 dropped and cracked so had to buy new one.  I also tried to sync my iPod to my computer as had photos and music there but keep getting message that my ipos all be erased as I have another account which I don't. Anyone help.

    If your old iPad had been Synced with your iTunes, it would have created a Backup.
    Connect your device, right click iPad under "Devices" on iTunes left Pane and select "Restore from Backup...."
    Then select the last backup from your old iPad (determine from Date n Time)

  • My old iPad 2 is updated to ios 7.1.2 but I have a new 4 which is only compatible with 7.0.4 from setup. How can I backup my account to the new iPad with this incompatibility?

    My old iPad 2 is updated to ios 7.1.2 but I have a new 4 which is only compatible with 7.0.4 from setup. How can I backup my account to the new iPad with this incompatibility?

    What you need to do is temporarily set up your new 4. Just long enough to update the operating system. Then you can erase all content and settings - which puts it back to its out of box state, then set it up again, this time restoring it from the backup of your two.
    So, using the same Apple ID on both - just to keep things easy - set up your 4. Just basically choose 'set up as new' to activate it, then immediately update the iOS to 7.1.2.
    then erase all content and settings, which puts it back to 'llike new'...but the operating system will not reset, it'll remain 7.1.2
    Then set it up again, this time choosing to 'restore from the backup' of your 2 and your 4 will be a near clone of your two.

  • My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files. I am in the process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

    My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files, and replaced my music with my kids music that they have put into the current itunes library. My music is nowhere to be found on my computer, so now  I am in the long, forever process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

    Contact iTunes support and explain your situation to them.  They may let you redownload it at no cost.

    If they don't, I'm afraid you'll have to purchase it again.  Sorry.

  • I purchased and downloaded a full album on itunes today, when i got home i updated my phone and lost it all, how can i get this music back without paying for it again

    Today while driving home from vacation i purchased and downloaded the new Nichleback CD, when i got home, i plugged my phone into my computer to update everything and it pulled up a message saying something like "this computer has recognized an iPhone that is in memory update, you will need to restore the phone" or something similar to that, it had a picture of the power cord plugging into iTunes on the screen and i couldn't get rid of it, so i had to plug it in and restore everything, when it was done i noticed that not only did i loose the new CD that i had just purchased today but i lost all of the music that i've purchased since the last update. How can i restore this music without purchasing it all again?

    Media should be included with the backup of the computer that all users should be creating on a regular basis as part of basic computer/data maintenance.
    In the event that you do not have a backup (stop being lazy.... keep backups of YOUR data and other important files)
    If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, it is possible to redownload music via iCloud from purchased history.
    If you are not in the US or for some reason cannot run iTunes 10.3 or later, contact iTunes customer support and ask very nicely for the opportunity to redownload the content.  They are not required to provide this opportunity.
    It is also possible to transfer content from an iDevice that was purchased via iTunes.  On the new computer, sign into the iTunes account, authorize the computer, connect the device then select File > Transfer Purchases.
    The simplest method of all is to transfer or copy the media (and other important files) from the old computer or the backup of the old computer.  Typing "move itunes library" into the search bar here or into google will reveal step by step instructions on how to do this.

  • HT1296 One Ipod touch has a different Apple ID than the rest. We are unable to sync Ipod Touch with our computer to transfer music we already purchased. How can we get this music transfered?

    How can I transfer music from our computer to an Ipod Touch with a different Apple ID?

    Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and tap the Apple ID listed and sign out and sign in with other ID
    You also may want to go to other places like:
    - Settings>iCloud
    - Settinge>FaceTime
    - Settings>Messages>Send and Receive and change the ID
    It may be best to go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Settings and start over again and set up the iPod again with his account/ID

  • Ran a previous version of FF, then closed and ran regular (5.0) version, but some add-ons, toolbars, and other stuff has disappeared. How can I get this stuff back?

    I have been running 5.0 great for a while now, but today I tried downloading and running FF 3.6. As it was opening it stopped responding, but then I tried to force quit but then it worked and loaded up the pages I had open on 5.0 when I closed it.
    I then closed the 3.6 version and ran the 5.0. I noticed a few things were gone or different...
    ~Several add-ons/extensions and toolbars were gone. Some of them were: Adblock Plus, Read it Later (and all its saved pages), Stumble Upon toolbar.... and more I am not sure of...
    ~Some of the saved sessions in my Session Manager add-on were gone.
    ~FF 5 seems to not be asking if I want to save my pages whenever I quit.
    ~The settings for how my tabs appeared has changed also... Like the color of text and where a new tab goes when I click on a link (to the right of the current tab or all the way to the right)... I am not sure if this is because of an associated add-on/extension being deleted.
    UPDATE: I checked my profile folder and all of the extensions' data is all still there but FF5 is just not reading it correctly. (like adblock plus... I see the folder for it but FF5 doesn't have it on the add-on manager page when I run FF5) (The stumble upon toolbar folder is also in my profile folder but is not showing up in View->Toolbars when I actually run FF5)
    Any help would be extremely appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Thanks but I don't think this will help. Like I said, all of my add-ons were working fine and compatible until after running a previous version of FF. I am sure they are still compatible, but they are not working at all.
    I even checked my profile folder and all of the extensions' data is all still there but FF5 is just not reading it correctly. (like adblock plus... I see the folder for it but FF5 doesn't have it on the add-on manager page when I run FF5)

  • HT1174 Cant sync Ipad with Itunes, have run tests can see Apple USB port in devices but Itunes doesn't recognise it. Windows auto play doesn't have Itunes as an option. how can I get to work please

    Hey bron_cross,
    Wow, Superb troubleshooting so far! Usually for the symptoms you have described, I recommend the sub-step titled “If the device is not recognized while in Recovery Mode” located in Step 5 of this article:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    However, it seems like you have exhausted all of the suggestions in that step. Did you happen to move on to Step 6: Check for third-party software conflicts? If not, here is the excerpt:
    Certain phone and cellular device connectivity software from vendors such as Samsung, Nokia, Bora, Novatel, Sony, Android, LG, Sierra, Huawei, Pantech, or Motorola may cause your device not to be recognized. If you have such software on your computer:
    1. Uninstall the phone or cellular connectivity software temporarily, and test.  Contact the manufacturer of this software for assistance in doing this. If you use the third-party phone or cellular device for your Internet connection, try connecting to an alternate network using Wi-Fi or Ethernet.
    2. Remove iTunes and all related Apple software by following this article (for Windows XP), or this article (for Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8).
    3. After reinstalling iTunes, test the device.
    4. If you still need your third-party phone or cellular connectivity software that was removed, reinstall this software and test your device to ensure it still functions with iTunes. Contact the vendor of your phone connectivity software if the issue returns.
    Also, third-party security software may conflict with iOS devices connecting to iTunes. Follow this article to troubleshoot issues that may be caused by your security software. After resolving any issues you may have with your security software, you may need to try the steps in this article again.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
