I have pressed a one step-recovery button on my lap-top and have lost all i-tunes data. However, a record of all my purchases still remain on my account. I do not have it saved to anyother device, how can i recover lost i-tunes music already purchased?

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.

Follow the instructions here:

Lost all my music on my iPod Touch - is there any way I can get it back?

Hi, for the first time I recently updated my iPod touch through my PC. All works fine apart from I've lost all my music that I've downloaded over the past year. Does anyone happen to know what I need to do to get it back or if it's actually possible? Am thinking I may have lost all my music.

You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
For other music you will have to get it from where you originally obtained it.

How can I disable wifi while playing music with locked ipod touch?

When I play music and lock the iPod touch, the wifi stays on which drains more battery than is needed. I don't want to turn off wifi in Settings since I like the flexibility to unlock the iPod and quickly check email, browse the web while listing to music (without going into settings, turn it on, browse, go back to settings and turn it off). Once I lock the iPod while playing music, I'd like the wifi to turn off. I know it will stay on while streaming that is expected, but why is the wifi staying on when playing music of the iPod?? Is there a way to do what I am asking? I don't recall having this issue with OS 1.x or 2.x. Also I have seen some posts asking for the opposite (leave the wifi on when not playing music and iPod is locked). These posts acknowledge that wifi stays on while playing music, so it seems to be 'feature' or bug in the OS.

henry is correct. you can't do that.
however, for what it's worth, i have found that wifi connection is similar to mobile phone network connection. i.e. if a phone is searching for a network, it takes up huge amounts of battery, but if it is constantly connected, it doesn't. so it is the 'search' procedure which drains the battery. similarly with my iPod touch. if it is connected to my home wifi network, but i am not using the wifi connection, the battery will not drain significantly. it's when i'm away from home and forget to switch it off that the battery drains. or when i am using it constantly (like listening to a 3.5 hr radio show using safari)

How do I get all of the music from my ipod touch onto my itunes. Some of the music is from my brothers and friend's accounts as well and I want it all on my PC itunes.

Help :)

The music you acquired from your friends is not yours to keep. If you want that music, you should buy it. To do otherwise is commonly known as stealing.
Although it's a grey area, if your brother lives in the same house as you, that music you can keep. If the music is on your brother's computer, use an external hadrd drive to copy the music to your computer, import it into iTunes and then put it on your iPod.
For the musc that you have actually paid for, it should already be on your computer or in a back up copy that you have previously made. If not, then songs purchased from the iTunes Store can probably be downloaded again, just go to your account in the store. Other MP3 retailers usually let you re-download the music. For any CDs that you used, simply use the CD to copy them into your iTunes Library gain.

A: If Windows isn't working:
You need to boot the computer from a "recovery disk or USB" that has a operating system on it and a graphical user interface to transfer files from your boot drive to a external drive.
I suggest using the Easy USB Installer to install Ubuntu 10.10 onto a 2-4 GB USB key.
http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/
Once you have it installed, consult this page for your BIOS boot key to hold to get into the BIOS.
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/a/biosaccess_pc.htm
Plug the USB into the back (if possible) of the computer, connect the external drive and enter the BIOS, set the USB as first boot and SAVE.
Boot off the USB and "Try Ubuntu/Run from disk" DON'T INSTALL.
Once in, go under the menu Places > Computer and transfer your files to the external drive just like you would in Windows, drag and drop.
B: If the computer hardware isn't working, but the drive might still work:
You'll have to remove the power cord and manually extract the hard drive. This might result in some damage.
There is a powered IDE/SATA to USB adapter for sale online for $20 that you can take that internal hard drive and use it like a external drive to access your files from another Windows machine.
C: If your iTunes content is deleted...
It might be recoverable if it hasn't been overwritten yet by fresh data.
You need to use undelete software pre-installed before the iTunes content was deleted or while on a bootable cd/USB and a external drive to transfer the recovered files.
D: If the hard drive doesn't work and...
The data isn't worth spending $2000-$3000 in a ATTEMPT at recovery, then your finished
E: If you have a "iDevice" with any content
It can be synced back into iTunes, check at iLounge what third party software works reliably now and for your version.
Once you log into your iTunes account, you can snyc only iTunes purchased content back from a iDevice
F: If any of the above is too hard, or the data is of "critical importance"
Then seek professional computer or forensic level recovery services.
Hope this helps.

Recover lost deleted corrupted music files tracks from iTunes match icloud

Just spent an hour on Apple's tech suypport line, all to figure out how to recover lost/deleted/corrupted music files/tracks from iCloud / iTunes Match. Here's how to do it:
ASSUMPTIONS: You're in iTunes on your computer, logged into your iCloud account.
Within iTunes, in the left-hand pane, select your Music library. Alll your tracks should appear in the right-hand pane. Those that are missing from your disk should be marked with an asterisk icon to the left of the track. Do the following...
...select all the missing/lost/deleted tracks (using the option button), and hit the delete button.
NOTE: when the delete dialog box comes up, make sure you do ***NOT*** click the "Delete from iCloud" selection!!!
...once deleted, select all the same tracks again, then hit the right mouse button, then select "Download".
All the tracks should start downloading, one by one, from iCloud.
NOTE: If I were you, I'd perform this operation on discrete chunks (no more than 500 at a time), just to be safe.
Good luck!

You can also recover the missing tracks from the backup you are keeping on an external HDD. You are backing up, aren't you?

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.
