All Songs Erased - Public Service

A simple public service
Something came up when I was connecting that said miPod was synced with another library. I didn't know what to do so I pressed cancel and none of my songs are appearing now, but they are still on my Nano.
Just a simple public service.
Envision   Windows XP  

I told it to sync purchases from miPod and it asked the same question. What do I do?

  • MY HARD DRIVE DELETED BY VIRIUS!!! ALL SONGS ERASED!!!

    I need help...my Hard Drive wuz deleted by a virius unexpectedly and all 400 of my songs were erased...I have a profile on iTunes and everything...and I still got all songs on my iPod...I'm wondering if I can get them back somehow...maybe uploading to iTunes from my iPod or maybe my account has memory...or did I lose them for good? HELP!

    Your account does not allow you to "Re" download store bought songs, apple recommends you backup all your purchases to CD or some other media for backing up like a external harddrive or something.
    Once you get windows installed back on the harddrive, install all updates for windows including the SP2 (Service pack 2) update, goto apple and download install the latest version of iTunes to the PC.
    Now if you had your iPod set to Manual update, skip this if it was on auto update or your not sure continue. connect the iPod to the PC, when iTunes opens and gives you a message about "Different library" just hit No, rightclick the ipod in itunes, hit options, then check "Enable Disk Usage"
    Now you can use thrid party software like yamipod http://www.yamipod.com/main/modules/home/ to copy songs from iPod back to iTunes/Your PC

  • Battery Died, All Songs Erased

    I was on a backcountry jeep trip (without my computer) and was jamming away to my ipod. The music stopped, and I realized the battery had died. I plugged the ipod into the car charger and got the black screen with the apple logo on it, and upon finally booting all songs & content had been erased. Is this normal? Why did this happen? I was pretty mad to have no music the rest of the trip. I tried searching here, but I must not be looking for the right keywords. Any help is appreciated!

    sorry nothing works. i cant call because i already used my one call and im not paying money to send it in. becasue im not old enough to get a job. i need to know if anyone else has had this problem

  • All songs erased from ipod and itunes

    I'm trying to help a friend and learn in the process. When he turned on his ipod all the songs were gone and when itunes was opened to see about putting the 3000+ songs back on to the ipod the library had disappeared as well. He said he hadn't done anything,and he didn't back up any of the music. Is there anyway to rescue all of these songs from either itunes or the ipod? We bought and ran a program called Recover My Ipod, but it didn't work and I'm not to sure about it's reliability. Any help at all would be great it's windows xp.

    Don't give up on looking for the songs.
    You can use Explorer to search your computer for missing songs.
    On the Start menu, click "Search".
    Select "All Files and folders".
    In the "All or part of the file name" field, type the song name and then click "Search".
    If you see the file you are looking for in the Search Results window, you can add it back into your iTunes library.
    See: How to add songs from your hard drive to iTunes.
    If they truly are gone from both the iPod and iTunes, have a read of this post which offers some hope.

  • All songs erased...

    I have a 20 gig Ipod with a click wheel. Recently my Ipod ran out of battery and several days later I plugged it in to recharge it. However, a exclamation point and folder symbol came up. I then unplugged it and replugged it in. It then charged fine. The next morning I unplugged it and went to listen to music, however I found that several songs wouldn't play. And that others would play for only the first 20 seconds or so. I then thought to reset it. So I held the center button and the menu button and reset it. However, when it was done the folder symbol and exclamation point came up. Then once I reset it again, it was fine but all my songs were gone. I have noticed, on-line, that the suggestion to many problems is a reset and that songs are saved. However, it also recommends that your Ipod be fully charged. I had listened to mine for about 10 minutes or so.
    Is there anything I can do?
    Thanks.

  • All songs erased from iPod, still located on i Tunes

    I recently deleted some songs from my iTunes. I then deleted the playlist "iPod selection" where songs that went on my iPod were located. I can't seem to get the songs currently on my iTunes to download onto the iPod. Tried to follow the directions on the support page but cannot locate the "Summary" tab. How can I manually put the songs from my iTunes back onto the iPod.

    *Tried to follow the directions on the support page but cannot locate the "Summary" tab*
    Connect your iPod to your computer. It should be appearing in the source pane which is the long pane on the left of the iTunes window where you see the icons for Movies, Music, Playlists etc. When you connect your iPod it should appear under the heading "Devices". Devices is only visible when an external source such as your iPod or a CD is mounted. Click on the iPod icon to highlight it, the will bring up the preference tabs in the main pane to the right, Summary is the very first tab.
    *I then deleted the playlist "iPod selection" where songs that went on my iPod were located.*
    You get this problem when the option 'Sync Music - Selected playlists' is being used to sync your iPod and then the playlist it has been updating from is deleted. Most people use this setting when the iPod is smaller than the iTunes library. If your library is larger than the capacity of your iPod, iTunes by default makes a new playlist called something along the lines of "Owner's iPod". If you for any reason delete it, you will not be able to sync your iPod.
    Open iTunes and create a playlist to update your iPod from, call it -iPod to make it the first playlist in Sources. You can make it a smart playlist that picks the songs for you or just a normal one and drag whatever content you want to have into the playlist. If you are making a smart playlist limit it to just less than the size of your iPod (for example 3700MB for a 4G iPod Nano. Now connect your iPod and when it appears in the Source list click on the iPod icon to bring up the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and choose Sync Music and the Selected playlists radio button. Choose the playlist you just made from the selection and click Apply. You can also sync from any existing playlists by choosing the same setting, you just need to make sure that the size of the playlists don't exceed the capacity of your iPod:
    iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
    How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
    To make a random playlist go to File>New Smart Playlist.
    Uncheck "Match the following rule"
    Check "Limit to" put "3700" in the number box, choose "MB" from the first list box, choose "Random" from the next list box. Check "Live Updating"
    When you want to change the selection in the smart playlist just delete everything in it and it will add a new selection. When you want to change the normal playlist just delete out what you don't want and drag in a new selection.

  • All songs are erased when connecting Ipod Nano to PC.

    It happened a few times now since the last few months, so last momnth I uppdated all softwares and installed the latest Itune. But it happened again last night. All songs got erased as soon as I plugged in my Ipod Nano to update or add new songs. Anyone experience that, what can it be.
    PC windows HP.

    Ok not sure what you mean, I did have to restore it It's my daughter's ipod)at work on my computer, added a few songs to see if it works, so it worked, gave it to her and she strted using it at home on the home computer and synched her ipod with Itunes to download her songs, was good for a few weeks and then last week she connected the usb cable to put more songs, that's when she lost everything and Itunes said to use the Ipod updater.... again!!!
    So do you mean that I she has to be on manual mode at home, since I initally put some music on my work computer???

  • Why all songs won't erase during sync

    I'm setting up my iPhone to erase all songs from the phone during a sync.  There is still 2 GB of songs that won't be deleted from the iPhone.
    What can I do?

    How have you set this up?
    My suggestion is if you sync using iTunes and your computer, use that opportunity to stop the synching of the music.  That should delete the music on your iPhone.

  • How to download mp3 to iphone G3 from  from library on new computer with erasing all songs on iphone now?

    how do  I download a mp3 from the itunes library on a new athorized computer to my iphone G3 with out erasing all songs on my iphone ow?

    Yes. That's what will happen. As I said, you can only sync to 1 iTunes database at a time. In order to set up a sync relationship with the new iTunes library, the media on your phone will be erased and replaced by media in the new iTunes library.

  • Public Services Reset if AirPort Device Restarts

    I'm running OS X Server on a current generation Mac Mini (running 10.9.3/Server 3.1.2). My wireless network runs off a Time Capsule (1st Gen) that is hardwired to an AirPort Express (Current Gen) to extend the network.
    Using the server application I have always opened ports via the "Public Services" section and added items like Screen Sharing, Server Administration, etc. and It works very nicely. The one thing i've always noticed however is that if the Time Capsule is restarted or shuts off (power outage) all my open ports defaults to none.
    I have tried a few things to see if this persists, like erasing and installing the OS and installing only the server app to rule out a software issue. The ports still default to none if the Time Capsule is restarted. At this point i'm assuming that this is just something that happens and i'll have to re add everything if I restart the Time Capsule or experience a power surge. 
    I don't know anyone personally that runs OS X Server, so I figured i'd ask the communities if this is a know thing. Any suggestions for work arounds or fixes would be great!
    Thanks
    -Tyler

    Which connections are being used on the AirPort?  Are you using the WAN Port?  (Is this AirPort wired as a gateway, or is the WAN port being used for local traffic?)
    If you're allowing incoming connections on those ports from remote sites, that's a path that attackers will probe.
    My experience with Server.app management of the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule devices has always found it somewhat... unstable.  Try a reset of the AirPort certainly, and try hard-setting the ports right on the AirPort and not administering the device via Server.app; use AirPort Utility to administer the devices.
    Usual preference is to get a server-grade firewall (and preferably with an embedded VPN server), and to reconfigure the AirPort as an Access Point (AP); into what Apple refers to as bridged mode.

  • How can I delete all songs from iCloud library?

    Hi,
    I have a strange issue and couldn't really find any information about this on Google, so I thought I would try here. I'm kind of surprised this hasn't come up for other users yet (or maybe it has and I'm just missing it.)
    I matched my iTunes library yesterday. About 60% of the songs were matched, 15% were uploaded and 25% were errored. I really like iTunes Match but I decided that I want to micromanage the library to get the best match results. To do this, I wanted to do the following:
    1. Remove all songs from my iCloud library
    2. Create a new iTunes library for use with iTunes
    3. Add to the library, artist by artist to match/correct.
    I began to do this in my new library and it was working fine. However I then decided to completely clear the old library, so I went into my original library, deleted all songs and definitely selected the option to delete from iCloud. I am 100% positive I did this. However, none of the songs deleted. They are not available in my original library (I have checked the option to display songs not on this computer) and they don't show up in my other library, either. I have no option to download the songs from iTunes on any computer, though I retain access from my iPhone.
    So, I need to delete these songs from iCloud. It does me no good to have them there when they're so disorganized and especially when I can't access them from most of my iTunes enabled devices. I was thinking of calling Apple to see if they could clear my iCloud library but a. I'm not sure they will and b. I don't want to pay $29 to discuss this with them, as I feel it is an issue with iTunes Match/iCloud and should be complimentary.
    I thought that maybe the songs would delete over time, since I know the iCloud servers are heavily taxed at the moment. However, it has been about 15 hours and there is absolutely no change. The iMatch section of iTunes shows that there are songs available, but none of them are; and since my plan is to reupload to iCloud anyway, that's fine--I just need to find out how to actually make the delete go through.
    Thanks!

    I called Apple and spoke with a customer service representative regarding this issue. I was given the two things to try, and if they don't work, I was told I can call back in:
    1. Go to iCloud.com and look at the advanced options. Since Photos can be deleted here, the representative thought there may be an option to remove songs here as well.
    2. Go into the library that has the songs that were deleted and click Update iTunes match.
    I tried #1--this didn't resolve the issue, as there is no option to remove songs this way. I can't try #2 right now since I'm at work, but if anybody else with this issue can try that step it can help us get the ball rolling on it. After I try that, I'll call Apple back to discuss this further.

  • External Hard Drive crashed with all songs on it.  HELP!!!

    Hello. My kids have used my work PC as their itunes playground for over the past year. I added a Lacie external hard drive to help them save thier music and had itunes on it, as well as my pc. The external hard drive crashed and won't communicate with the pc at all so when we bring up itunes on the pc it shows exclamation marks next to almost all of the songs and won't play them. I still have almost all of our music on my ipod, except about 170 songs that they purchased since I last plugged in my ipod, they have their own mini's. I want to know how to get the songs back to my computer. I am afraid if I connect the 60GB ipod to the pc all of our songs will be wiped out since my ipod is on autosync. Can anyone give me a reliable way to get everything back to normal? PLEASE!!!!

    Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using a lot of the utilities your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article:: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
    The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there's a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to your Mac. The procedure is a bit involved but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    If you prefer something more automated there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Senuti Mac Only
    iPodRip Mac Only
    PodWorks Mac Only
    PodView Mac Only
    iPodAccess Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac & Windows
    PodUtil Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac & Windows
    Keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
