All of my iTunes music/apps have been deleted, and my iPod is being recognized as a digital camera by the computer. Help?

Hi!
I went on my iTunes today, and it kept saying "
The itunes library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation" I restarted my computer and opened iTunes, only to find that all of my apps and songs have been deleted. When I plug in my iPod, it says that this iPod is registered with another computer. My computer, however, is recognizing my iPod as a digital camera, with the name of my father's iPod. I have no idea how to fix this and get all of my songs/apps back. Someone please help!

Check your iTunes version - although your 5th gen works with older iTunes versions, at least 7.4 is required for the IPT - older versions will not even recognize it.
As for the Apple site not working, there have been sporadic reports of that, no known reason, usually resolved in a few hours.
You could also try updating using Apple Software Update (usually found in Start > All Programs), or from within iTunes (Help menu > Check for Updates).
Hope this helps...

  • All my apps have been deleted and I can't install them back.

    All my apps have been deleted when I turned my phone off and back on. However, my storage stayed the same as if I still had those apps. I am unable to re install my apps back. How do I get my apps back?

    I had forgot to add the picture part. So basically my apps were crashing last night, so I decided to turn my phone off and on. When i turned it back on, my apps had deleted and I couldn't re install them. I restarted my phone and this morning all my pictures were missing. My phone still says "restoring" but it only restored half of my pictures and the other half is still gone...
    This doesn't make any sense.
    powering off your phone and back on won't make you lose apps or pictures.
    Are you restoring your phone from an icloud backup?

  • My iTouch is being recognized as a digital camera and cant take out my music from it.

    i have an iphone and an ITouch and also a Ipod nano and and i just got a brand new computer cause my old 1 died. i still have music in my ipod iTouch and iPhone. i want to fill my new laptop with music. but since my iTouch and iPhone are both being read as a digital camera i can only take out photos from both. witch right now i dont care about the photos. my iPod nano on the other hand is being read as a storage device meaning i can take out the music out of the nano. i want to make it so i can also take out my misic from my iTouch and iPhone. in need of assistance. tried a bunch of methods but im tired of it. im im going to need professional help.

    - It is normal and expected for the iPod to be seen as a camera
    - What do you mean " when I put it in hard disk mode"?  iPod touches do not have a disk mode.
    - Does the iPod show in iTunes?  If not try:

  • Since update, all songs have been deleted and i can't turn ipod off. HELP!!

    since update, all songs have been deleted and i can't turn ipod off!! I updated the itunes software last week and the next time I synced the ipod, it immediately deleted all songs. After further investigation, i realized that my songs are still in itunes. Under the music tab, it shows the capacity and the content of the ipod. It used to have 4 gb of audio on there and now it have no audio and 4 gb of 'other' files. what does this mean? i can still see the songs in the library list, but i can't even make a playlist with them. When I click on playlist, nothing happens. Also, I can't turn the ipod off since the update. Please send any advice my way.
    Thanks,
    regan101

    yes, and the problem is unresolved. i really feel that the problem is occuring with the itunes program and not the ipod. thanks, though.

    Photobooth and iPhoto are two quite different apps with no connection between them. I'd try the Using Mac OS X forum for whatever version of the OS you have.

  • My Pre-installed music app has been deleted from my phone, how do I get it back?  It is not in my purchased apps.

    Help, my pre-installed music app has been deleted from my home page.  It is still in the settings but no app to play music from.  I love my music!

    Locate it- Scroll through the home screens !
    Hold your finger on it till the icons start jiggling now move it to the left of the screen and hold it there.
    In the back ground the homescreens scroll back towards your first screen.
    When you reach the first home screen position icon where you want (If you have sixteen -the last one will move to the second home screen)
    Whilst they are jiggling choose which ones you want on the first home screen.
    You can also add access to more by creating folders containing similar types of apps by dropping one app icon on another icon as well.
    When finished organizing press the home button to fix the setting.
    Similarly you can add or remove app icon short cuts from the dock to suit your preference.
    When you move them off the dock they are added to your home screens. (think of the home screens as an analogous to the desktop of your PC

  • Email messages from my icloud account update on all my devices showing if they have been read and if a reply has been sent.  This does not happen with my tinyworld (TalkTalk) email account.  Can I (how can I) get this to work with TinyWorld?

    Email messages from my icloud account update on all my devices showing if they have been read and if a reply has been sent.  This does not happen with my tinyworld (TalkTalk) email account.  Can I (how can I) get this to work with TinyWorld?

    You have to look at the email protocol being used.  the Apple email system uses IMAP, does Tinyworld use IMAP or POP?
    Does the email system permit delivery receipts to be requested?
    Just some of the things one needs to determine from the information provided by the email service provider.

  • ITunes Music Files Corrupted by Genius and/or iPod Touch?

    After installing an iPod Touch for the first time, and also running Genius for the first time, on my large (199.61 GB) music library (located on a WD MyBook 500 GB external hard drive), all of my music has disappeared according to iTunes. This is because all of the album folders, and files contained therein, in the iTunes Music folder have been radically altered, complete with folder/file names like "┌ÅxÇ"Ä.µ┼½. I have no idea what to do to get my music back at this point. Please help!

    Wow!!!
    In one way this serves as a 'bump' so all of us can see you.
    Now tell us everything about your computer.
    Don't do anything!!!!!
    We may be able to get back your media as long as you haven't "zapped" stuff.
    And yes, hear it now, where is your back up ?

  • TS1741 Does anyone have trouble with the Remote app losing contact with the iTunes library after it has been connected and working fine for a while. If I go to the computer and turn off sharing, then turn it back on, it will relocate the library again.

    My iTunes remote app on my ipad mini will work fine for a while and then it will lose the library. I then have to turn off sharing on the computer and then turn it back on. This will work for a while and then I will have to repeat the process. Help!

    I have just found the problem to be windows firewall on my library PC
    I can only presume there has been an update to windows firewall or iTunes
    all the relevant programs were on the allowed list
    I'm now currently running with firewall turned off on my library PC.
    I'll update when i have found the rogue setting.
