How do I get my information back if my ipod touch restored itself?

I was using instagram when all of a sudden my ipod turned off on me, and It was fully charged.  When I attempted to turn it on, the picture of a USB cord popped up pointing to itunes to plug it in a computer, like how it would show if you just purchased it.  I pluged it in and said it needed to be restored, now all my info is gone, and Ive had this ipod for nearly 4 years..... please help!

Restore from backup. See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iTunes backup make sure all uour apps are in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the iPod backup. You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Lost all my music on my iPod touch. Now I can't reload it from my computer because it states that it is in the cloud. How do I get my music back on my iPod touch so I can listen when I'm out of wifi range.

    I was trying to fix the "ghost" songs on my ipod touch 4th generation today. Somehow I ended up deleting all my songs from the touch. Now when I try to get them back from my computer it states that they have to be downloaded from the icloud first. Don't know how to do this or why I can't just drag and drop the music from the computer back onto my ipod touch.

  • How do I get my information back on my phone after updating itunes

    how do I get my information back on my phone after updating I Tunes.  I up dated it this morning and when it was complete, all my contacts and my pics and my screen savers and sounds were from my daughters phone. I can not locate any of my information on my phone?

    All iTunes content they you have selected to be transferred to your existing iPhone - music/video/podcasts including 3rd party apps remain in your iTunes library on your computer. Photos transferred to your existing iPhone via the iTunes sync process also remain on your computer.
    If you are syncing contact info and calendar events with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac, this data also remains on your computer.
    You can sync multiple iPods and/or iPhones with the same iTunes library and iTunes account with each device having its own sync settings.
    When you connect a new iPhone to iTunes on your computer, you will be prompted to transfer the backup for another iPhone that has been synced with iTunes. After the backup for your existing iPhone is transferred to your new iPhone, this must be followed by a sync to transfer your selected iTunes content including 3rd party apps and any photos on your computer selected to be transferred to your iPhone. You select sync contacts with the Address Book and calendar events with iCal under the Info tab for your new iPhone sync preferences and this data will be transferred to your new iPhone.

  • My form has been destroyed how do i get the information back

    my form has been destroyed how can i get the information back?

    When you say that your form was destroyed does this mean you no longer see your form in the myforms tab or that the data submitted to the form is missing. If it is missing submissions are they all gone or just some. Any additional information about your for and your submissions would be helpful in figuring out what has happened.

  • My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files. I am in the process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

    My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files, and replaced my music with my kids music that they have put into the current itunes library. My music is nowhere to be found on my computer, so now  I am in the long, forever process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

    Contact iTunes support and explain your situation to them.  They may let you redownload it at no cost.

    All you can do is restore from backup if yu have one. If you backed up to iTunes make sure that autosyncing is turned off. Otherwise when you connect the iPod to the computer the backup with you data might be overwritten. To turn off go to iTunes>Preferences>Devicesand check the box that says "Prevent iPods...".

  • How can I get my "contacts" back on my iPod classic.  ITunes wiped out all my contacts and there is even no place for contacts any more on my macBook.

    How can I get my "contacts" back on my iPod classic.  iTunes wiped out all my contacts from my iPod classic and now I no longer even show a place for contacts on my computer when I plug in my iPod.

    You don't download iTunes by connecting your phone to iTunes and yes of course, by syncing your phone with your husbands computer, of course you will have lost all your stuff and you will have his.
    When you connect to iTunes, you sync.
    To get back all your things, then you need to sync your phone to the computer that you used originally to set your phone up - if this is your computer, then connect your phone to that and sync it with iTunes on that and you will get your stuff back, but when you connect to iTunes you sync and don't download.
    Ringtones should download automatically to your phone and if not, if you are getting them on your computer, then download them to your computer with your iTunes on and double click to get the MP3 file to open in iTunes and then sync your phone to your computer and you will get the ringtone on your phone.
