Computer and ipod were stolen. Is there anyway to access my music library now?

I had a computer that was stolen about 9 months ago that had my iTunes on it with lots of music that I had downloaded via a 3rd party site from the internet(mp3 skull). I was wondering if there was any that I can access that music library? Anyway to download it to my new computer? I really don't wanna have to search and download all that music again.....

Being as that library is on the stolen computer, I'd tend to think that if you could locate it to download from, you could use that info to GET YOUR COMPUTER BACK, eh? Even if you could locate it, odds are the "new owner" <sarcasm> has probably reformatted it to remove any traces of your ownership, and if they wanted your music, they probably backed it up to use with their new user account.
As Chris stated, if you have a backup from the old comp. use that. Otherwise, no luck.

If my computer and ipod were stolen how do I get back the music I have already purchased?

I purchased a new computer and ipod but can't retrieve any of my old music. If I try to go to the itunes store and click on the items I have already purchased it says "are you sure you want to purchase this again."

You only get one download.
Unless you are int the U.S, then you can use icloud beta. Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick Links.

Was your backuip copy of your computer stolen as well?
If not, then use it to put everything back.
If it was stolen as well, then you can try contacting itunes support and asking for and exception to the one download. They are under no obligation to allow this, but it is worth a shot.
Sorry about your computer.

Computer and Ipod were stolen

My computer stolen from my car about three months ago. I have the ipod but was having issues with it right before the computer as taken so, I am not sure if everything is backed up I dont think so but maybe. Should I get a new ipod first or see about the music. I have payed for hundreds of songs to play in my classroom and now it is all gone. I will do what ever it take to get the music back is there any way for this to happen?

Can time capsule allow me to stream music from my itunes library directly to my home stereo system? Is there anyway to access my itunes library from my tv?

can time capsule allow me to stream music from my itunes library directly to my home stereo system? Is there anyway to access my itunes library from my tv?

Sorry, not sure if I understand what you are asking.
Are you thinking of moving your iTunes / Media Folder from your Mac to the Time Capsule?
If you do this...when...not if...the Time Capsule drive has a problem....you lose everything because you have no backup for the iTunes library.
A much safer plan would be to add an external hard drive to your computer and move the iTunes library there.
Then, if you are using Time Machine for backups, it will back up both your Mac and the hard drive. Now you have "originals" on one drive and backups on another.
In order to stream music from the iTunes library, iTunes must always be open on your computer.
Is there anyway to access my itunes library from my tv?
Yes, if your TV has an HDMI input and you have an Apple TV.

I plugged my iphone 5 into my windows computer and it automatically restored my phone so all my photos and messages and apps were deleted. is there anyway i can get my text messages back??

is there anyway to get my text messages back onto my iphone 5 after plugging it into my windows computer?

Your title asks "How do I get my iPhone information back on my (iPhone)?
You also said "I have yet to back it up." Therefore, all your information that had been on your iPhone is now gone.
Your iPhone has (and will continue to) been refreshed from iTunes.

HT203167 my computer and ipod was stolen so i lost my library. how do i get it back?

...

Do you have a backup of your purchases ? If not then you might be able to re-download some/all of your purchased items : re-downloading (not all content types can be re-downloaded in all countries, and they might no longer be in the store).

Crap! Computer and iPod stolen, help!

OK - I think I won't like the answer. But I just have to ask before re-paying for my music again.
My laptop and iPod were stolen. I'm about to order a replacement iPod (Touch). And now, I'm thinking about my music library.
I stupidly didn't back up my music. I just reloaded iTunes and am forlorn to see an empty library. Is there any way that I can reimport the music I've already purchsed thru iTunes store? The iTunes purchase history screen is teasing me by listing all of the music I've purchased with the old iPod.
If I can reload/reimport/re-download music I've already purchased with my old 'puter, that would save me a boatload of cash. (And I figure that I'll just synch my incoming iPod to this 'puter and be good to go again).
Thanks in advance for everyone's help. (Or laughing AT me)

I think that may have to re-purchase the music but you may be able to get your insurance to cover this. I don't know your specific details so you would have to contact your insurer.

The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases

Hello cheech07,
The following article contains directions that can help get you back on track with iTunes. I'd recommend picking up at 'Part 5' of the 'External drive' section.

Both my iPod and the laptop that had my iTunes library on it were stolen, is there a way to retrieve my former iTunes library?

A few months ago my iPod and laptop were stolen. Is there a way to retrieve my old iTunes library or a portion of my old iTunes songs even though I do not the iPod or the laptop?
Any and all help is welcome and needed.
Thanks!

Use the backup to put back what you have... something is better than nothing.
Any purchases that are still missing can be downloaded from iTunes.
Downloading past purchases from iTunes
If the iTunesLibrary.itl file was not a part of the backup, your library is gone. Playlists will need to be recreated, playcounts are gone.

Hi katmango24,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I'm sorry to hear that the computer died and the iPod was lost.
For music that was purchased from the iTunes Store, you can use the steps in this article to download it again:

Computer and iPod Stolen

My computer and my iPod were stolen at the same time. I have reinstalled iTunes on my new computer and recently got a new iPod. I can't access any of the songs I originally bought on iTunes to download on my new iPod. Is this even possible? There is no backup of the original songs, but in the Purchase History it shows that I did make the purchases. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Bummer. Unless Apple gives you a regrant, they are gone. You can ask here but since they pay royalties on redownloads they might say no.
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html?form=music&topic=Music%20Purcha ses&subtopic=Lost%20or%20Missing%20Items
Going forward, I hope you make backups! Not only music, but digital photos and other files that are impossible to replace.
