3 albums of purchased music show on purchased list, but files are only on iphone. How can I get them back onto my computer?

I have at least 3 albums of music that appear in the "purchased" column on itunes, but the files have gone missing. I have the files on my iphone, and can listen to them on it, but when I try to play them on my Mac I get the message : The song “XXXX” could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" but when I try to find the songs in my itunes library the files are not there. I have had to de- and reauthorize my computer to get the apple tv (1) to play old content, and wonder if in doing that, I have somehow wiped out old purchased song files. Is there a way to transfer these songs back onto my desktop Mac? The "transfer purchases from iphone" function doesn't do it, seemingly because the songs were all puchased via the desktop.

I have no need for it so cannot recommend directly but here are some programs

Had to reset computer and my itunes is empty. have 7448 pictures on ipod. How can i get them back onto my computer and not delete them?

Desparate to know if I can get my photos which were synced onto my ipod classic.Now I have lost all the data from my computer and want to put the photos back onto computer. I know if it is synced it will delete everything. I have gone into itunes on my computer and ticked the box to prevent automatic syncing but I still am too nervous to connect up.

You'll need the help of 3rd party software to extract the photos from your iPod to your computer. Google will be your friend on this one. I can't recommend any particular ones.
Keep in mind that the photos on your iPod are no longer in full resolution, but instead are now scaled down versions created by iTunes during the sync process so that the resulting photo would be optimized for viewing on your iPod classic.

You can transfer contents from your iPhone back to iTunes library:
First, *BEFORE you connect the iPhone, please go to the iTunes preferences and select "devices", then select "disable automatic syncing for iPad, iPhones and iPods"*.
Then, for those songs that you purchased on your iPhone: Transfer purchases from iPod to iTunes.
For all other non purchased contents (your photos etc), their are ton of third party programs, some is free: iDump, Floola. Some is shareware, but they does preserve playlist/ratings/playcounts/artworks etc: iCopyBot, CopyTrans

Hi, I have just tried to sync my iphone with my computer.

Any ideas on how can i get them back onto my phone or computer? I can see them in the itunes store under purchases, but there are no options for me to download them again.

I recently turned off iCloud photo sharing and lost all the photos off my iPhone 4S. How can I get them back onto my phone?

I recently turned off iCloud photo sharing and lost all the photos off my iPhone 4S. How can I get them back onto my phone?

IF you have successfully imported your pictures to your Mac http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 then it's safe to delete it from your phone.
If you want the pics back on your phone, just sync them back using itunes http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

I purchased movies on my ipad and then when I synced to my computer they ended up in itunes but are now off the the ipad. How do I get them back onto the ipad. Thx!

I purchased tv shows and ibooks on my ipad and then when I synced with my computer they all ended up on my computer in itunes. They aren't on my ipad anymore. How do I put some of them back on my ipad. Also, I tried to make another purchase on my ipad but it said I didn't have enough room. I just updated my software and before I synced I had a bunch of shows on the pad. I don't understand why it's saying I don't have room especially since it took all my shows off. Thanks!!!

If the shows are in fact still on the pad, they will be found in the videos app, not the music or I tunes app. Look there and see if they are still there.
If you don't see them there, go to the searchlight screen ( farthest left home page) and type in the name of one of the shows. If it is on the pad, hiding somewhere, this will find it.
If they are not there, they should not be using up space.
To get them back onto your pad, plug in and sync again. Make sure you transfer purchases first. Before you sync, take a look at the video tab in your I tunes, and check what you want and don't want synced.

I have bought music directly on my ipod,i have also bought films and music on itunes on my computer, how do i get them all onto my computer without accidentally deleting everything off my ipod? I did this a while a go and had to spend 100's re-buying

Help! I have bought music directly onto my ipod, i have also bought films and music directly onto my computer from itunes, how can i put them all onto the computer? My ipod is acting a little odd and i think its going to break at some point, so i really want to save everything i've bought. Last year i tried to sync them thinking that my music would go onto the computer, but it actually just deleted everything off my ipod, i haven't been game to try anything again.

Transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
If you are in the USA and soe other places yu can redownload apps, music, TV show (not movies), books via iCloud. See:

When i synced with my ipad all my photos in iphoto on my macbook disappeared. When I try to sync again, iphoto doesn't recognize the 1500 photos that are still on my ipad. How do I get them back onto my macbook?

When I synced my iPad2 with my MacBook Pro, all my photos in iPhoto disappeared on my MacBook but remained on the iPad. I want to get the back onto my MacBook, but when I connect the iPad, it doesn't recognize that the photos are there.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

ITunes Match music videos are ineligible, how can I get them back onto my iPod?

Hi,
I subscribed to iTunes Match earlier today, turned it on and did the same on my ipod touch but have now discovered all my music videos are ineligible and can't be tansfered via iCloud. It wont allow me to sync my iPod via USB cable. Is there anyway I can get my videos back onto my iPod? Thanks

I'm looking into this as well. Most of my videos were purchased from apple and showed up originally. But, I had a lot of problems with the tags in my regular music and had to more or less purge my iCloud library. Afterwards, I had the same problem as you. iTunes would no longer match the iTunes purchased music videos.
Anyhow, there is a quick way to get them transfered to your iPod.
Right click on the videos and use "Get Info" to change them to a "TV Show."
You can also set the "Show" to something like "Music Videos."
I also set all then music videos grouping to "Music Video."
Created a smart playlist that just listed all things grouped as such.
Make sure Sync TV Shows is checked.
I may have left a step or two out. But, you should be able to handle the rest from there.
This is what I'm doing at least until I find a better solution.

My iPhone 4s deleted all of my contacts today. I have them all backed up onto iCloud but how do I get them back onto my phone?

I went onto my phone to send a message and none of my contacts are there. I checked iCloud and they are backed up but how do I get my contacts from iCloud back onto my phone?

Hi
I just figured out how to restore contacts from icloud....
Try this if you already have the contacts tab turned on in iclouds on ur phone settings:
Go to icloud.com - contacts
bottom left hand corner is the gear icon which is settings - then select all
This selects all your contacts then go to export as tv card or something like that
A window pops up asking u to save - save onto ur computer where u can access easily
go to ur email, compose new email & attach the saved contact list that u just saved onto ur computer
on ur phone open mail, then open ur email with the attached contacts
open the attached contacts - at the top it will say ' add all contacts' select that
then it will pop up 'create as new contacts' or 'merge contacts'
i selected create as new contacts as iphone 4 deleted all my contacts from my phone
after a while it downloaded all my contacts back onto my phone which I double checked by entering the contacts app from my iphone
so happy i got all my contacts back yay! i had over 400!!!

I backed up my iphone 4 and when i restored it my music and itunes is no longer on phone, how do i get them back onto phone. Thanks for you advice.

Can i back up my partners phone using my Itunes account?

Backups have never included media or apps.
All the media and apps should be in iTunes on the computer.
Connect the device to the computer and sync the desired content to the device.

How do i get them back onto my computer again?
