Can't Get My Itunes Songs Back. HELP PLZ

I recently got an Ipod touch 3rd generation. I plugged it into my computer (which is an Acer Aspire One (eeeeeewwww)), but it wouldn't recognize it, so I put it into my brothers laptop. It worked on his so I got some songs from him, and bought 30$ worth of "stuff" off of Itunes. I had bought all the songs from Itunes, while on my Ipod touch, so they weren't on any computer. I went to charge my Ipod, since I couldn't find my wall charger I just plugged it into my computer. It went to the screen that shows the cord and the Itunes logo, saying how you need to connect it to itunes, so I couldn't on my Acer, so I unplugged it. The screen was still there on my Ipod so I did the manual reset, by holding the main button and the sleep button for 10 seconds. When it came back on it was still showing the Itunes + the cord sign so I plugged it into my brothers computer where it said it had to reset and restore. When that was finished nothing was on my ipod so I wanted to get the songs I bought back, I logged into Itunes on my brothers computer with my account, and it showed my purchase history, but nothing to let me re-download them on his computer, my computer or on my ipod, when logged into my account. How do I get my songs back? Im not going to pay for them again, I have all the reciets saved so I have proof of my purchases. Any help on what to do or who to contact?

You only get one download. It is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
You can try e-mailing itunes support and politely explaining your situation. Who knows? They may make an exception.
You can click "Support" at the top of the screen and follow the itunes store links to e-mail support.

TS1363 can't get my itunes libary back on my ipod

Can't get my itunes back on my ipod clasic

You restore from your backup.
But I am guessing that you would not be asking if you had a backup.
If you have an iPod you can recover from that see this Zevoneer post:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9990366#9990366
Otherwise you will have to re-rip you CDs.
Apple have a strict download once policy so you should expect to have to repurchase your music from the iTunes store.
However try contacting customer service and explain the situation. Maybe they will take pity on you and allow a second download, but they are not obliged to.

Can I get my itunes library back?

Help me....I had to get my computer repaired and they replaced the hard drive. It didn't get backed up so I lost everything. Is there any way to get my itunes library back?
By the way, I have most of my iTunes library downloaded to my iPod Nano. If I could tranfer that to my computer, that would be more than great. Is there a way to do that?

Do yourself a favor, once everything is restore, CREATE A BACKUP!
Anytime you choose to not do a backup, you risk losing everything as you have witnessed. I hope for your sake that there were no important documentts or pictures on your computer, if they were, they are gone forever.

Installing iTunes and signing in does not make your media magically appear on the computer.
The media is only where you put it.
To move the media from your old computer to your new computer, you need to copy the iTunes folder form your old computer (or the backup of your old computer) to the new computer.

How can I get my iTunes library back into iTunes?

Folks:
Hi and thanks for the assist. I recently had to reinstall everything on my Dell XPS 8700 running Windows 7 Pro. I downloaded and installed iTunes 11 and then made my default Media Folder location where all my iTunes music is (backed up). However, while I assumed (yes, I know the old axiom) iTunes would simply automatically import everything in that folder back into my new install, nothing imported. How can I get iTunes to import media (songs, movies, etc.) from my previously saved folder (there doesn't seem to be an "Add Folder" option anywhere - and I really don't care to individually add every single song...
Thanks again.
Tom

HT201209 Can I get my iTunes balance back in credit or cash

Can I get my credit balance paid in cash or refunded to a gift card as it will not allow you to use your credit to part purchase accessories and takes the full amount off your credit card. Is there a way to get the monetary value back?

As far as I am aware no, you can only use your balance to buy items in the stores (iTunes, App Store, Mac App Store, ibookstore, but not the Apple online store), and that money can't be refunded or credited to a credit card.

How can I get my itunes songs to show up on my apple tv2 from my ipad?

I just bought apple tv and an ipad. I set up home sharing. When I am using apple tv, I can see my itunes songs/playlists on my tv as long as my HP laptop is on. But if I have my laptop off, and my ipad2 on, i cannot see my songs on my tv. I have to use my ipad 2 in order to navigate through the songs. Any ideas?
Also as a side question, It seems that the picture quality on my ipad 2 is not very good. Meaning, I took a picure with a professional camera and saved it to my ipad. Then I used it for my background on my ipad but it is very grainy. Is this normal?
Thanks

Regarding your first question. That is the correct behaviour. Apple TV can only see and play media that is being shared by a compurter running iTunes. It will not see the media on your iPad. You can however use Airplay to play the media on your iPad on your Apple TV. If you download and install the Apple Remote app on to your iPad you can use that to remote control your iTunes library playback on your computer or Apple TV.
Regarding your second question. Try creating a version of the image that is the same native resolution as the iPad's screen which is 1024 x 768 pixels. Also, save it as a JPEG or PNG file for best results.

My backup cd failed me..How can I get my iTunes music back?

I had to format my computer, and did a backup on my iTunes library, as recommended, on a dvd. Everything seemed fine, until I was about to copy my music back on to my ITunes after the formatting. iTunes says it can't read the CD/DVD properly after a while in the player, and so I am without music! My computer otherwise recognizes it, and can even say what's on there, with artists names and all, but obviously can't open the files properly, since they're zipped "the iTunes way"...If anyone can help me find a way to make it read and decode the backupcd, I would be really grateful!
Even if you can't help me with that issue, answering this will be almost just as helpful (as I will get most of my lost music back): So my whole pc was formatted, and my iTunes library is empty as well. But then I tried to log into iTunes store, so that I could download all the songs I've bought there. Again, it wouldn't let me, says that all my available downloads are already downloaded on this computer... well, but they're erased! Please, please, please, I hope someone can help me, I NEED my music!

It won't let you restore from backup?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1382
You only get ONE download. You cannot re-download music. It is your responsibility to backup your music. You should always have a backup.
From the itunes store terms of service:
" PRODUCTS CAN ONLY BE DOWNLOADED ONCE; AFTER BEING DOWNLOADED, THEY CANNOT BE REPLACED IF LOST FOR ANY REASON. YOU SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BACKING UP YOUR OWN SYSTEM"
You can transfer purchases from an ipod:
File>Transfer Purchases

How Can I Get My Purchased Songs Back?

Recently, my hard drive crashed. I did a data recovery and swapped out the hard drive for a new. After reloading all programs etc onto the new hard drive, i found that most of my iTunes were either missing or damaged. Many of them were from CDs, but a handful were purchased from the iTunes store.
Not only is my "purchased" folder not showing up, but I am missing a few of those songs. I thought all I would have to do is sign onto the iTunes store and they would appear, but it's apparently not that simple. How do I go about getting those files to show up in my library like they used to?

Apple has a strict download once policy so you can not redownload you purchased music.
It is often possible to recover files from a failed hard drive, but you might need professional help to do it.
If you have your iTunes data it should be easy to get it onto the new drive. You would need to say exactly what you managed to save, you need the iTunes folder and the iTunes Music folder.
If you have your Music on an iPod you can recover purchased music from it:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
There are many third party apps that allow you to recover everything from an iPod.
If none of these methods is available to you, the only hope is to explain the situation to Apple customer support and see if you can persuade them to make an exception and let you download again.
