Content has been erased?

My iPod touch had 4000+ songs on it. For no reason, that I can identify at least, all of the content has been erased except for the artist that I think was playing at the time? When I open iTunes on my PC, the song list and all songs are still there but there is no content? The "capacity bar" at the bottom is all but empty.
Not sure how this happened, what happened or how to reverse this. I have a back up from a month ago, but cannot seem to open or get it to restore either.
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

    Connect it to the computer that it normally syncs with and select restore in iTunes.

    No, there isn't. If possible return it to whomever you purchased it from and get your money back. Otherwise, you have a very expensive paperweight that is of no use to you.

  • My dad has dementia - does not remember his password. His hard drive has been erased. We need to reload Mountain Lion and can't figure out how to do it.

    My dad has dementia - does not remember his password. His hard drive has been erased. We need to reload Mountain Lion and can't figure out how to do it. Internet recovery asks for his Apple ID and password. He has no idea. I have an Apple ID but have never bought anything through the iTunes store so it won't accept my Apple ID. I don't know if his computer is under warranty. He does not remember if he has Applecare. I tried reinstalling Leopard -- the computer originally came with Leopard -- but the computer screen goes grey and a message comes up saying I need to restart. He wants to give this computer to me since it's useless to him. What do I do to get a system on it again?

    You will need to reformat the hard drive to go back to Snow Leopard or Leopard.
    Does he have a Snow Leopard Disk? He should, as there is no way to go from Leopard to Mountain Lion without it. If you can find the Snow Leopard Disk, I'd at least start with that.
    You will need to use Disk Utility in the installer to format the hard drive and get rid of the recovery partition.
    Boot from the installer disk by holding down the C key on restart. When it boots, Open Disk Utility (Utilities menu, at least in Snow Leopard).
    Select the Hard drive and then click the Partition tab.
    Select 1 Partition from the partition menu.
    Select Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format.
    Name the drive (Macintosh HD is the standard).
    Click Apply to partition the drive.
    When it is done, quit Disk Utility and install the OS.

  • How to restore your old music after it has been erased from being synced??

    I once had music on my iphone and i synced it on my laptop wth itunes and now everything has been erased!!!

    Well, the level of pain you are about to experience will hinge on what level of backup you have of the phone. If none, you will soon have a blank, from-factory phone you will have to reconfigure from scratch.

    Hey DannyHTDB,
    Thanks for the question. If you follow steps 1, 4, then 5 in the iPod troubleshooting assistant, that will most likely resolve the issue:

  • Trying to install Premiere Elements 10 on Windows 7 but keep getting error message 'A reduced set of content has been installed' - help!

    We bought Premiere Elements 10/Photoshop Element 10 a while ago and it worked brilliantly on our Window XP machine, but since we moved to Windows 7 last year we can't get Premiere Elements 10 to work properly and always get the error message 'A reduced set of content (Instant Movie Themes, Title and Menu templates, etc) has been installed. You can install the full content by inserting your Content DVD or downloading it. Do you want to install now?'. So I've tried reinserting the DVDs and installing them. I've uninstalled all the software and started again, but each time I get the same message at the end of the process. I've spoken to the computer shop I bought the computer from and they say Windows 7 is incompatible, but that doesn't seem to be what the Adobe web site says. Please, any advice welcome as I've got a year's worth of videos I need to edit.
    Thank you!

    Are you working with Windows 7 32 bit or 64 bit? What video card/graphics card does your computer use? NVIDIA GeForce? And, are you doing your download and installing with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    Premiere Elements 12 is compatible with Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
    If you have tried to obtain the Premiere Elements 10 Content from the installation disc labelled for Content for your version and operating system and that is not working, then can try downloading and installing the Content from the following Adobe link if you do not decide to click on the message to initiate the content download from within the program.

  • My itunes library has been erased

    When I connected my i-Pod to my laptop, it said there was a problem with this disc and suggested I repair it.  Now EVERYTHING has been deleted from my library and i-Pod!  How can I restore it?

    The error was with the iPod, and when I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING.  It's as if I have just purchased a new iPod, and it's empty--no music, no playlists, nothing.
    However, there has been a new development.  When playing around the other night, I found the music I had purchased, and a few other ones.  However I am unable to sync.  I gave up and decided to just start fresh and copy all of my music from my portable HD into my iTunes library and when I started to sync it said this iPod is  already synced (or something like that) to another library; do you want to erase and sync to this library.  I was desperate and said "yes", but no realize I probably shouldn't have.
    I just wish there was somewhere I could go and have someone fix this for me!  I don't have a mac so probably couldn't go to an Apple store, but there has to be somewhere, no??

  • Will Time Machine identify a back up hard drive after main has been erased?

    I went to the Genius Bar a couple of days ago and was told that in order to fix some of the problems I was having I should do a achieve and install (or maybe erase and install I can't remember.) Then use Time Machine to restore all the files on my computer except for the system and library folders (since there is a lot of stuff inside them that has been causing errors.)
    My question is will Time Machine be able to identify my disk after the achieve and install? I looked at the Time Machine Backup from another start up disk and Time Machine just showed up blank. Is that what would happen if I wiped my drive? Or would that only happen if I completely erased the hard drive and not be an issue if I went with the achieve and install?

    The Time Machine disk certainly shouldn't look blank - that could indicate a pro blem with your backups not running when you expect.
    When you look at your Time Machine disk you should see a 'Backups.backupdb' dire ctory which contains subdirectories for each Time Machine snapshot.
    If you don't see these then your Time Machine isn't backing up and you shouldn't  re-install your machine :)
    If you do see that, then you should be OK (as long as the subdirectories cover r ecent dates), in which case you can run the re-install - I'd go for a 'clean ins tall' and use the 'Copy my settings from a Time Machine backup' which is one of  the options after the first boot.

  • Macbook pro has been wiped after an update and the majority of the contents has been lost, is there anything I can do to recover it?

    I updated my laptop and now the majority of my contents seem to have been wiped.  Is there anything I can do to recover them? My backup was connected at the time so it has already backed-up to the computer's present state.  Most photos/ Itunes/ Mail... has been lost.  I have some stuff but only up until January 2013.

    If all your files are missing
    You may have logged in as a different user, such as Guest. Open the Users & Groups pane in System Preferences. Your name should be at the top of the user list, under Current User. See also this support article. 
    If files are missing from one folder
    Change the Finder view mode; for example, from icon view to list view, or vice versa.
    If files are present, but seem outdated
    You may have started up from a different volume (disk.) Open the Startup Disk preference pane and check the selection.

  • All of my music has been erased!!!! I've had it for 7 years and all of my music is gone!!! Can someone help!?!

    All of my music has suddenly been erased!!!!! I've had this IPod for 7 years with thousands of songs, videos, and movies on it and they are all gone!!!!! Can someone help me!?!?

    Not much help here, but just wanted to say i'm in the same exact position ever since I updated to the latest version of iTunes (thanks for pestering me so much that I finally did it and mucked up my iPod!)...I've restored my iPod, lost 7 years worth of music (around 9,000 songs) and have been slowly re-adding them all, and then randomly getting to a point where I eject my iPod (when it had music on it before I put it in) and it tells me that there is no music on it.  I put it back in iTunes, it takes a while to load, but it shows the music there, however, again, when I eject, no music.  Something's definitely messed up with this new iTunes...
