All my apps and music deleted after i backed them ALL up when i restored?????

I had about 100-150 dollars in apps and music and i backed them up and then i had to restore and i selected my back up file and when it turned on all my apps and music were deleted.....

- Transfer iTuns purchases:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program lke one of those discussed here:
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right-clicking on the iPOd under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up.
- Restore the iPod from that backup. That should also get you the update.
- If in the USA, you can also redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

After updating my ipod i have lost apps and music how do i retrieve them

I just updated my ipod touch to the latest version and have now noticed that my apps and some of my music have disappeared? I recall itunes saying that my ipod have been synced to another computer (but this isn't the case, I have only ever synced my ipod to the one laptop!!). Please can someone help me to retrieve my lost purchases back.
Many thanks

- Just sync the media back to the iPod from your iTunes library. You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- Sometimes a computer glitch occurs and the iPod then identifies the computer/iTunes library as a different library.
- If you have media purchased from more than one iTunes account you have to go to Settings>Store and sign out of one account and sign into the other to redownload media purchased from that account.

Empty app and music library after hard drive crash

Hi, my computer's hard drive recently crashed and I lost all my data including all my musics and apps. I would like to know how to transfer all my music and apps from my iPhone to my itunes library. I'm sure this problem has happened to many people. I know that iTunes match would have come in handy but it's now too late because it would not scan my music from the phone.
This is a very big problem because a lot of my music comes from CDs and I got rid of many of those.
Thanks for your help and support.

You should be able to:
Backup the device to the new installation
Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

HT4623 I just updated my iphone 5 to the latest update: 6.1.2 After update was complete, I can no longer connect with my local network, apps no longer are transfered to my phone. I lost all of my apps and music and can't get them from my computer to my

Has anyone else had trouble with update 6.1.2 for I phone? After the update, I can't get back on my network (password is correct), ICLOUD doesn't transfer my downloads, nothing seems to work. It saved my calandar and address book, but lost all of my apps and music (except for a few songs, figure that out) and I can't get them back. Any suggestions?

I had this problem post 6.1. Not sure if it was a coincidence, but I'd just recently changed my password after being convinced I'd been hacked, due to being told I was entering my password wrongly, repeatedly by iCloud / iTunes. It turns out my iCloud account on my Settings -> Mail, Contacts and Calendars was listed as Inactive. Putting in my details, turning off Contacts over iCloud (thus deleting them) and turning them back on again, repopulated my contacts from iCloud with numbers attached to them.

Hi! my icloud said that my storage is almost full (20.8mb free) so i deleted a lot of pictures, all my videos and music but after all it didnt change at all and still says that i have just 20.8mb free space. what should i do? can my icloud be wrong?

i wanted to backup my phone to icloud cause me and my brother will switch phones and i dont want to lose all my stuff. but now it seems that my icloud has some problems, cause even after deleting many photos and videos, and turn it off sync for apps and music, my available storage capacity didnt changed at all!! i dont know whats wrong, somebody can help me please?
thank you so much!!

ok, for example for my photos it say 1.9gb on the phone (before it was like 4 or more) but in backup still 4. should i just turn off camera roll in backup options?

I accidentally deleted all my apps and music. I can re-download the music but don't know how to get the apps back without buying them again. Any thoughts?

All my apps and music are gone after i updated to 5.0.1

i did back up my ipodtouch before i updated it. all my musics and apps are gone and only thing it backed up is my pics, contacts, and some other stuff. is there anyway i can get my apps and musics back?

You said you did a backup...
iCloud backup or iTunes backup?
Also, two suggestions for next time:
Software updates can be done right from your device, under Settings > General > Software Update if you have iOS 5 or later. This usually prevents a lot of problems users typically run in to when updating in iTunes.
When updating in iTunes, even though your restore may seem complete, it is still restoring your apps, music, etc. Please be sure that it is absolutely complete before unplugging.

I've lost all my apps and music after iOS 5 update?

This morning I updated my iPhone 4 from iOS 4 to iOS 5. It appeared to skip the syncing part of the update and now I've lost all my apps and music. They're still on my iTunes but my iPhone won't sync - it shows steps 2 and 3, and thn just stops. Help?

No, you media like apps and music should be OK. For the problem see:
Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows

How do I delete, and reinstall all my apps and music

My downloads are stuck, I can't install or update any apps or new music.
I think the problem lies with one of my downloads in iTunes, where it says 'processing' and the rest of them say 'waiting'. I've been waiting almost a week for it and it won't change from 'processing'.
I also tried to add some new apps, and update Twitter, but now it says 'waiting' on that too.
Here's what I see in iTunes;
And it's been stuck like this for days.

Settings> Mail>
Choose the account you would like to delete.
Select Account to see the settings. You might want to write these down since you'll need them to set it back up again
Hit Cancel to go back
Then scroll to bottom of next menu and hit Delete.
Go back to Add Account and enter the settings previously written down.

I have upgraded my iTunes for Windows and I have lost all my apps and music

I have upgraded my iTunes for Windows and I have lost all my apps and music.
Although i signed in with my iTunes account, i can see only 5 apps (that i downloaded in the last 2-3 days), although on my iPad and iPhone i have more than 100 apps.
If i connect my devices to iTunes, the syncronisation will be made the other way, from iTunes to iPhone/iPad, so i will lose everything.
1. How can i restore these apps from the iCloud back-ups from my devices to my iTunes? Or any other method possible?
2. If you can also give me a suggestion about how to find my music playlists, that would save me from a lot of useless work on creating them again.
Thank you!

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
In the unlikely event that all the media has been inexplicably and permanently removed from your computer, see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
When you get it all working make a backup!

If you tried to restore to your iCloud backup and your photos didn't fully restore, first go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and make sure it isn't still in the process of restoring.
If the restore is complete and all your photos weren't restored, all you can do is try restoring the backup again. You might try the solution posted by ezjules in this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589. This involves opening the photos app after the phone restarts and you provide the passwords for your Apple IDs, then leaving it open for the remainder of the restore process.

I want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized?

i want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized? also how can i update the software?

This is a tedious solution, which is stupid! And some users report an inability to reauthorize a computer after an "en masse” deauthorization. I can’t believe Apple doesn’t provide a list or menu to find out which computers you’ve authorized! Obviously, APPLE knows (or else they couldn’t tell us how many computers we have authorized)--so why can’t they give us access to that information about our own computers??!!!
And for an already-authorized computer with a hard drive that’s since been replaced and upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, would it be recognized as a “new computer” and require authorization? Would its previous incarnation (i.e., with the old hard drive and OS) be considered a separate computer? Some users report they can’t authorize a computer after an OS upgrade because of that. Can’t believe we have to do such a bass-ackwards kludge!

All my apps and music deleted after i backed them ALL up when i restored?????
