  • Will i loose all my music off my itunes on my laptop if i make a new itunes account?

    i have 2 itunes accounts as i forgot the password to my first and my phone is trying to sync to my itunes now after it has been restored. i wanted to wipe my phone and start all over again but i dont want to loose the music off of my laptop.

    No, you won't. Back it up anyway.
    You may encounter a 30 or 90-day waiting period when redownloading previous purchases from the iTunes Store.

  • Need to delete Itunes and re install it. Will i loose all my music library?

    I accidentally deleted Quick time. It is needed to run itunes. A message tells me to uninstall Itunes and re install it again. My concern is : will i loose all my music library in process? Here's some additional info :
    WinXP
    Ipod Classic (5th gen)
    Any help is appreciated. Please email me [email protected] Thanks a bunch

    Hey there,
    No, because your music is stored elsewhere on your computer (most likely under My Music from within My Documents). I have had to follow this procedure a few times and have never lost a song. So go ahead and re-install.

  • If I disinstall iTune and reinstall it will I loose all my music?

    If I disinstall iTune and reinstall it will I loose all my music? I am constantly alerted that I must install an updated version but each time I try to do it it does not work. What should I do?

    Under normal circumstances, an uninstall/reinstall doesn't touch your content. (That being said, it's still always a good idea to maintain a current backup at all times in case of disasters of any sort.)

  • ITunes wont open....will I loose all my music????

    Help please!!
    my itunes (windows) wont open when I click on the short cut or go into start and programs. it simply wont open. Someone recommended delelting and re downloading...but will I loose all my music????? Someone please help me!!!
    THANKS!

    hiya!
    a few questions before proceeding.
    are you getting an error message? if so, what does it say? include error message numbers if you're getting any.
    or are you getting no error messages whatsoever when you try to launch itunes?
    if you're getting no error messages whatsoever, do you just see the wee hourglass for a few seconds, and then nothing? if so, do you also have Norton Internet Security 2005 installed on that PC?
    or are you seeing a brief "flash" of the itunes license screen (and then nothing)? if so, do you also see similar behavior when you try to launch your QuickTime?
    love, b

  • HT1386 I have a 3GS iphone. I have a message instructing me to restore its                         original setting.  Will I loose all my music on my ipod if I do this?

    I have a message instructing me to restore original settings.  If I do this will I loose all my music on the ipod?

    What exactly does the message you're getting say? Where are you seeing it?
    If the phone is in recovery mode, everything on the phone is already gone.
    Your music should already be in the iTunes library on your computer.

    Hello Footr,
    The following article provides the answer to your question, as well as steps for completely removing iTunes and related components:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    iTunes Store purchases or songs imported from CDs are saved in your My Music folder by default and are not deleted by removing iTunes. While it is highly unlikely that you will lose any contents of your iTunes Library when following these steps, it is always a good idea to ensure that your iTunes library is backed up. If you're unsure how to backup, see iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    Transferring your prepaid cellular data account depends on your carrier. AT&T lets you move it yourself when you go to Cellular Data in Settings and log into your account with your previous AT&T user name and password. For iPads with Sprint service, you can set up an account on the new iPad and contact Sprint Customer Care (888-211-4727 and go through the menus) to deactivate the old plan and get credit for unused service. For Verizon, call the company’s customer service number for mobile broadband support (800-786-8419) and ask to have your account transferred.

  • My i tunes is saying corrupt and to reinstall. How do i do this and will i loose all my music after a reinstall

    my i tunes, all of the sudden is saying corrupt and to reinstall, how do i go about this, and will i loose all my music. Why did this happen? i am using a dell laptop.

    By the way, this forum is for questions about Apple Remote Desktop, Apple's software for managing networked Mac systems, and hence not the best place for your question. If you need further assistance, I'd suggest asking in the iTunes for Windows forum.
    Regards.

  • Will I loose all my music after updating to OS 4?

    I wnat to update my ipod touch 3 gen, but I changed my computer a month ago and lost my whole library!!! But it's still in my ipod, so I wonder if I update the thing will I loose all my music allready on it?
    thanx in advance!

    Your iPod Touch will be erased when you update to the new iOS4 and synced with what is in your iTunes library, You should consult the following post for some useful hints on what to do.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10570955#10570955
    It is important to backup. Purchased songs, videos, iPod Games, and albums can be downloaded only once.

  • Will i loose all my music and pictures and apps if i use a different computer

    will i loose all my music and pictures and apps if i use a different computer?

    In order to use a different computer than what the device was originally synced with, you would need to use a 3rd party application to back the information up, prior to syncing with iTunes.
    If you try to sync on a different computer than usual, you will get a message stating that it will wipe all data out and start from scratch... and it will erase everything.

  • If i change my apple id will i loose all purchased music and videos

    If you would like to change the email address that you use as your Apple ID, you can do so without losing purchased content. Note that email addresses ending with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com are already Apple IDs, and cannot be changed.

  • HT4972 Will I loose all my music of the device when I update my iPod? I don't have any of the music on my iTunes

    I need to update my iPod software, but I don't want to if I'm going to loose all my music. I don't have any of the songs on my iTunes on my laptop because my laptop is new. I don't sync my ipod to my laptop for that reason.

    - Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up.
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. The iPod will be updated too.
    Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.
