Accidentally erased my songs off of my iPod Touch can I recover then?

I accidentally erased my songs becaused my hard drive crashed. I tried synching it to my new computer but I accidentally erased my songs. Is their anyway to get them back? I have not installed anything else on my iPod after that so they all should be there? Is there a certain recovery program anyone would recommend? Or if anyone has had this problem before. Thanks. iPod is 2nd Gen.

If your hard drive is dead and you didn't make a backup of your library to an external drive or DVD, and you synced your iPod and erased your music, you are pretty much out of luck. The only hope you have is to send your old hard drive to a data recovery company and see if they can get back your files.
In the future, invest in an external hard drive to create backups of your library. It's money well spent.

How come it's not the same with music purchasing?
Because Apple pays the music copyright holders a royalty each time a song, including a free single, is downloaded from the iTunes Store. You can sometimes get one free redownload request granted by using _*this form*_, but never more than one.
good luck !

How can I delete individual songs off of my ipod shuffle with this new itunes?

We used to be able to delete individual songs off of the ipod shuffle and now that itunes changed we can't figure out how to do that.

Hello ArmyWife8610,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. I found an article with some steps to delete photo albums off of an iPhone. The way you delete the photos will depend on whether they were taken with the iPhone (on the Camera Roll) or if you synced the albums:
To delete photos and videos from your device
To delete synced photos and videos
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Sync photos from."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Click Apply.
To delete Camera Roll photos and videos
There are two methods to delete items from the Camera Roll:
Import the Camera Roll to your computer, choosing to delete items after import.
or
Delete photos and videos from your device manually. Open the Photos application, open the Camera Roll, tap the Action button, tap each photo to select it, and tap the Delete button.
Note: For photos and videos you want to save for later, import them to your computer before deleting them from the Camera Roll.

I accidentally erased some songs from my iPhone? Can I get them back?

I accidentally erased some songs from my iPhone, but can I get them back?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
If you made a Time Machine backup before deleting the applications, you can recover them from your backup. Just go to the Applications folder, and open the Time Machine app, so you will be able to recover the applications just navigating through your backups.
However, there are some applications that won't work after doing this, because they require other system files. In this case, you will have to download the apps again from the Internet and install them using the installer

I accidentally erased music somehow from my itunes library, how can i get it back?

i accidentally erased music somehow from my itunes library, how can i get it back? I'm not sure how I did it, but I do know something has been wierd ever since. i remember using it and arranging songs, and then, bing! Songs were missing. Please help!
Not quite sure what info you need to answer this. I dont have all my music synced to icloud unfortunately...at least not that i'm aware of.

You either have an incredibly complex computer setup or I think you are confusing terminology here. If you have iTunes set to share your library with others in your iTunes preferences then other computers in the area will see it as an item when they are running their iTunes and have it set to check for shared libraries. Your husband is probably seeing this when running iTunes on his computer. You can disable this sharing on your computer and/or he can set his not to pick up shared libraries.
By the way, an iTunes account is something you log into when you want to buy something from Apple. On your computer it is simply your iTunes collection or your iTunes application. So you need to turn off sharing in your iTunes application preferences.
Your husband is seeing "his" iTunes collection when running iTunes, but it is possible he doesn't have anything in it if it is a brand new computer.

Can I Turn Genius off on my iPod Touch?

Just a simple question - I'm not too fond of this Genius feature... I've got about 1,000 songs and most songs keep coming up when I press Genius in their respective audio realms, which is making me get sick of songs really fast. What I want to know is: can I turn off the genius feature on my iPod Touch? It's off on iTunes 8, but does anyone know how I can turn it off on my iPod Touch 2.1?

I was hoping to just rid the iPod of it, but if it won't go away, I won't use it (as I've stopped). I was just hoping to not have it on my iPod anymore. But many thanks for your help!

how erase the AOL account from my ipod touch??? alway i update apps appear on the screen different a email of mine and i cant erase

Thank you both for your answers.
@danacarolina7: the problem with doing that, is that as soon as you plug your iPod up to your computer, the deleted songs are automatically re-added to your iPod from iTunes. It appears that there's no permanent way to delete songs from your iPod, using your iPod.

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable.
- If a 5G iPod
Iphone 5 lightning port charging problem - SOLUTION!
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
and
try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I need to get my Photos off of my iPod touch...

I have a iPod touch 16GB and a MacBook Pro.
Recently, I upgraded my Mac to Leopard, and had to wipe my HD. I thought that i had backed up all of my files to disks. Turns out that one folder didn't back up, and it was from my pictures, and they are pictures that are really important to me! They are still on my iPod Touch and I would like to get them off.
Does anybody know how I could do this? Are there any programs?

You may be able to find a program to transfer the photos off of the ipod touch back to your computer, but they will not be the same resolution as they were before. Itunes resized the photos before it transfered them to the ipod, so they will be of now a fairly low resolution even if you can transfer them back.

Is it possible to rate songs directly on the iPod touch?

Is it possible to rate songs directly on the iPod touch?
Also, is it possible to rate videos directly on the iTouch?

Hi jackhowson,
As Micromen said, you can rate songs directly on your iPod Touch.
However with videos, currently you can't! You'll have to rate them on your computer. If you would like to ask Apple this feature, click [Name|http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html] and fill out the form.
