How do I get back my music that I lost when I updated my software on my 2nd generation Ipod Touch

I updated the software on my Ipod touch and I lost all the music that I had downloaded from Itunes.  I can find the purchase history but can't get it back onto my Ipod.  Does anyone know how to do this?

  • How do i get back my music that was deleted off my windows and it is not in my ipod anymore either

    okay. i wanted to transfer more music to my 4 days old ipod classic, then when i connected it with the same laptop that i used to transfer the first time, it said that it was a different itunes. i blindly said that it was okay to erase since the music will still be in my computer but it wont be in my ipod, i presume.
    so when it deleted everything from the ipod. i restarted my laptop 'cause it was lagging. when i went to itunes to transfer all my music and videos, all my videos and music was gone from itunes!
    when i check my files, all the songs were deleted! the videos as well. unsure of what to do, please tell me that it can be restored..! )x

  • How do I get back old emails that were lost when I changed my email address?

    I changed email providers. I have the new account set up. I then went to Tools/Account Settings/Account Actions. I then removed the old account (assuming that it would stay in my inbox and just not try to send or receive) and all of the old incoming and sent emails that I had been saving under that account in my inbox and sent files folders disappeared. How do I get them back?

    Which program do you use for email: Thunderbird? Outlook Express? Other?
    As you may know, you can set up accounts using two different protocols: POP3 and IMAP. With POP3, you actually download copies of all mail and Sent messages are stored locally. Removing your account should be no problem. With IMAP, you are viewing a mirror of your mail which really lives on the server. Removing an IMAP account might remove the folders, although I can't recall ever trying it.

    how do i get back my music which i deleted by mistake which i bought from i tunes store

    Well if it has a non-Filevaulted hard drive, you need to stop using the computer and either take it to a local PC/Mac repair shop that does data recovery or do it yourself with a spare blank powered external boot drive and $100 software that will read the deleted (but not yet overwritten) files.
    Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
    Once you have the files recovered, back your data up, especially burning data DVD's in iTunes.

  • How can I recover bookmarks and files that were lost when Firefox updated?

    This morning, there was a message that firefox needed to be updated. Since I don't like (or use) Google Chrome or IE, I unchecked those options as part of the update. Once the update was completed, all of my bookmarks and folders were gone. Is there ANY way to either recover the missing items OR restore/roll back to the firefox browser I was already using?

    Hi, first open bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import and Backup >Restore, and see if you have a backup there.
    If not, please see - [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]], and [[Recovering important data from an old profile]].
    If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

  • How do I update the software on my 1st generation ipod touch?

    I have an ipod touch 1st generation. I am unable to upgrade the software so that I may use newer apps like Instagram. What can I do? I also have a new imac, and a first generation ipad. None of the calendars will synch! I must be missing something! So frustrated as I would like to be able to use all to full capacity and easiness among devices.

  • My hard drive crashed and I have lost my Itunes library. How can I get my the music that I loaded from my own CDs back on my PC from my iPod?

    My hard drived crashed in my HP Pavilion desktop and I have installed a new one. I have Windows 2007. My Itunes library is gone. How can I get all the music that I loaded onto my iPod from my own CD's back into an Itunes library?

    The loading of audio files to iPod is designed to go one way only: computer to iPod. There are some third-party applications available which will rescue an audio library and write the files back to a PC HDD. The playlists might not copy, nor the album art work, nor videos but you might be able to recover all audio files. Some apps are open source and available for free download, for example: Senuti, Onyx. There are others which are  Windows-based; do a Google search to find out. 

  • How do i get all the music that i purchased back on my ipod touch 3rd generation?

    how do i get all the music that i purchased back on my ipod touch 3rd generation?

    Back from where?
    Where did it go?
    It should all be on your computer and included in your regular backup copy of your computer.
    Sync it back.

  • How can i get my purchased music that was under another user name

    how can i get my purcchased music that I purchased under anorhe user name.  I just lost all of my music!

    You will need to sign into the iTunes Store using that other Apple ID and password. Then you can re-download the content via the Purchased link.

    Are you signed into itunes with your email address?  Purchases that are made through itunes are tied to the email address on your account.  If someone else logged in then your purchases wouldn't show. 
    When you go to the itunes store look at the black/gray bar at the top.  On the left is the email address that is signed in.  If it's incorrect just click on it and select "Sign Out."  When you sign back in all should be well.

  • If i selected to "Create a new backup" and then cancelled that option but want to go back and select "Inherit backup history"; how do i go back and do that since now when i plug in my HD, that option doesn't appear anymore?? Any Help?

    If i selected to "Create a new backup" and then canceled that option but want to go back and select "Inherit backup history"; how do I go back and do that since now when I plug in my external hard drive, that option doesn't appear anymore?? Any Help? I bought a MacBook Air, but decided to return it for the newest model, and I wanted to back it up so that I can then back it up on my new MacBook Air. I didn't understand the option to Inherit or start a new back up, and therefore selected the option to create a new backup. I believe I should have selected to Inherit backup history so that when i back it up on the new MackBook Air, it appears the same as the one I'm returning.... Is there anyway that i can re-select the option to Inherit backup history for time machine?

    Thanks for sharing this link.
    I've posted a question here https://discussions.apple.com/message/22049103#22049103 describing my situation. Are you able to suggest me the right option?

  • HT1353 Can I download i OS 5 onto my 2nd generation iPod touch? I would like it to link with iCloud from my iPad 2 for music. Is that possible please?

    Can I download i OS 5 onto my 2nd generation iPod touch? Is it possible to get my iPad music via iCloud onto the iPod 2nd generation? If yes, please can you tell me how? Thanks

    You can download purchases from itunes as long as they still carry them.  they may not be available forever.
    All of your music and everything esle should be on your computer and backed up with your regular backup copy of your computer.
    You can download most itunes purchases on ipad, ipod touch and iphone.
    I see no reason to have an ipod and an iphone.
    If your ipad/iphone/ipod crash you would have to restore using itunes on your computer.
    I would not reccommend using an iphone ipod/ipad without a computer. 

  • How do you update the 2nd generation ipod touch to get IOS 4.3?

    My niece sold me her second generation ipod touch so I could give it to my five-year old for christmas. I was so excited to give it to him, until I tried to start loading apps.  It kept saying that I needed IOS 4.3.  How do I get that on this ipod?  This was going to be his BIG gift because obviously I don't want to buy a five-year old a brand new ipod touch.  I will be so upset and disappointed if I can't use this...

    Sorry, the 2nd generation iPod Touch can not be upgraded beyond iOS 4.2.1.
