Help! What Happened to My Songs?

I got a 32GB iPod touch not too long ago. While out and about, I decided to download two songs via Wi-Fi. When I got home to connect it to my computer, the songs simply disappeared. I looked everywhere; the songs were not in either my computer's library nor on my iPod. When I went to the iTunes store to see if I could redownload them, I got a message saying something along the lines of, 'You have already purchased this song, would you like to purchase it again'. Not wanting to waste any more money, I clicked 'no'.
When I checked to see the purchased playlist on my iPod, as iTunes suggested, I found out that there was no such playlist on my iPod. There is also no 'Purchased on iPod Touch' playlist in iTunes.
What gives? I have been satisfied with iTunes and iPod thus far, but I want my money and/or my songs back!

i had something similar happen to me. whenever you buy something it sends a reciept of the purchased music via email. get the receipt number and email customer support. they tell you to go into your itunes account and look for available downloads and i think they should be there. they refunded my puchase, but i did have to re-download the music, but there was no additional charge.
hope this helps.

  • What happened to free song of the week

    What happened to free song of the week? I no longer see it on the right side. I used to listen to it then select it to download and now no longer see it. Anyone knows were to find the free single of the week.

  • Help- What happened to my files?

    I changed the name of the my computer (System Preferences>Sharing).
    When I changed it back, most of my stuff is gone- calendar, itunes contents, mail, etc. It's almost like it's a new machine? Where did my stuff go? I didn't delete anything. Please help.

    Changing your computer name in the Sharing preferences would not cause this to happen. I suspect that you may have also changed the short name on your home folder. It would be simple enough to change the folder name back and remove the new folder it created however you probably won't have permission to do so. Let me know if this seems to be what happened and I can explain how to fix it.

    Hi Jaap, thanks for the advice, I was absolutely devastated when I thought my song was destroyed, but after looking in the Logic folder I found 2 versions of my song under different titles (one I thought that I labeled for a track of the song!) I'm not sure how this happened, but luckily it was found ok and I breathed again. Thanks again. Jolls

  • What happened to new songs in my Library?

    I "signed" new agreement that popped up while downloading a song in iTunes today. Not only did 28 American Express Gift card points disappear, but that song, and songs subsequently downloaded, appear only under "Purchased" file but not under "Music" library. Will these songs be able to be synced to iPod? I forgot, does iPod sync from Music Library or Purchased? Has anyone else had this problem where songs appear under "Purchased" but not in "Music" Library? How does one rectify this? Many thanks.

    Thank you Diane, while they are still not appearing on the "full list" , I did what you suggested, and they certainly exist as separate line items in the music Library. You stated that when I sync to the iPod, just put it on "automatic", so I assume that will take care of the problem. And that is what I will do. My deepest appreciation.

  • What happened to cycle song?

    Garageband on iOS used to have a way of setting a cycle in the top bar so you could just loop 4 bars or 1 bar of your song. This seems to have gone. Hs that really happened or am I being stupid. It makes it much harder to use as the fantastic tool for practicing with that it
    used to be.
    Presumably now it automatically loops the song section so you will need to keep on adjusting that?
    Have they taken this feature away or am I having a bad dream?

    Are you sure? I have only seen the yellow cycle region in GarageBand on a Mac, not in GarageBand iOS for iPhone/iPad.
    Presumably now it automatically loops the song section so you will need to keep on adjusting that?
    That is how to do it in GarageBand iOS. The current song section will loop automatically.

  • Help, whats happened to the quality of my video?

    I just recorded a video, that in the background i have a black sheet of paper with a light reflecting onto it. When i view the video in the 'Camera import window' the video is excellent quality, however after importing it the quality is drastically reduced and my background is Heavily pixilated.
    I noticed that in imovie preferences it says in 'Optimize video' that if i select full size 'on this computer may result in degraded video playback'. I tried this first and it looked bad, then i tried it at large 960x540 it looked better but there was still large pixilation.
    What do i need to do in order to have the video looking the way it does in the 'camera import window'?
    Pls help me i need to get this done asap!!

    Thank you for the response, I looked for the "Watch in HD" button when I pulled up my video to try it but didn't see that option anywhere. Also, I don't have to do that to watch other people's video's and most of them look just fine. Should I have uploaded it a different way from iMovie? Actually, I don't even think it gave me any other options than just "upload". I appreciate your response.

    you could try kappy's suggestion in this thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1333602&#1333602. don't know what else you can do. was hoping startup manager would do the trick. you could also just try booting to open firmware holding apple-option-o-f and then type in the following-
    reset-nvram (hit return)
    set-defaults (hit return)
    reset-all (hit return)
    the last command restarts the computer. that is of course if you can actually boot to open firmware. it is worth a try. good luck. oh another thing, i would maybe try pulling out your battery, waiting a bit, and then reseating it. could also help a bit. i don't know the pmu combo for your computer. if you do, you may want to give it a try. usually resetting the battery will do the equivalent though.

  • What happens if a song that is unavailable in the iTunes store and gets uploaded and takes up your iCloud storage later becomes available for matching?

    Will it replace the uploaded version with the 256 kbps version?

    I hope so.  I've got about 1000 songs that uploaded that are in the iTunes Store and didn't match for some reason.

  • What happen to my songs?

    Just realized that since I upgraded to itune 11 all songs that I have pulled from CD's, vinyl and my old machines are gone.  The song titles are listed in itunes but the files are gone.  Only purchased songs and albums are still there.  Where did they go?  how do I recover files.

    Hi Applitini6
    The song titles are listed but the songs are not there.  The music file should be under mymusic except only purchased items are listed.  Even the file recorded using audacity from my usb turntable are gone.  They were stored under audacity on a different drive.  They are not grayed and the ! sign (not yellow, but grayed) shows up when I click a file that is listed.  I tried to pull them from my ipohone 4, but that did not put them on the hard drive.  I will need to find out how to reload from my ipod.  That is how I got them on this computer from my previous machine before.  Even podcasts are gone not that they were important.

  • What happened to my songs?

    Under the "Upgrade your songs to DRM free!" Its saying I have 50 songs, when I sync everything (and everywhere else I look) its only showing me as having 7 songs. where did they all go? :/

    YOu want to restore from backup. This will get your original settings back as well as your data.
    From there you just sync the songs back.

  • Help -What happened to my hard drive?

    My Ibook froze and I got the flashing folder with question mark when I tried to boot up. So I boot up from my installation disk and the system can't seem to find the hard drive to do a disk utility. Am I screwed?

    Bohacks:
    It may well be that your HDD has failed. The average life of these drives is 3-5 years, with a significant number of drives failing as early as the first year. Your computer was released in 2004, which makes your HDD about 4 years old. So you may be a candidate for a new HDD.
    Try booting from the Apple Hardware Test disk, and run all tests in a loop by holding down Command + L during the tests. It sometimes takes several repetitions of the tests to uncover intermittent problems, sometimes several hours.
    Please post back with what you find, or with further questions or comments.

    When she went running with it, there were no songs on it.  She checked the computer and was horrified to see that the playlists had disappeared and most of the songs had disappeared.
