How do I restore iTunes after a Mac crash (and Apple ID change)?

Hi
Can anyone please help me with some advice about how to restore my iTunes purchases after my Mac crashed. Its a bit more complicated than it sounds given that I changed my Apple ID about 18months before the crash. All purchases under the current Appled ID have been restored. However, everything that I bought under my first Apple ID has not been restored. How can i get this fixed?
Thanks

HOw do i reinstall itunes after a hard drive crash

Experienced a hard drive crash on my computer. I have no backup of iTunes. HOw can a reinstall Itunes and retrieve my purchases?

You can download and install iTunes from here www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you are in the US, and the music is still available in the store and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to purchase them, then you should be able to re-download your music purchases for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
If you are not in the US then there is currently no re-download option, so you would need to copy a backup onto the computer

How do I restore iTunes after upgrading to Lion?

Upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion and, in the process, appear to have lost access to my iTunes. After the upgrade, when I clicked on the iTunes icon, I was then asked if I wanted to "install iTunes!" I have found folders that appear to contain the contents, but really don't want to re-build my iTunes from scratch.
How can I reclaim my iTunes?? Great thanks in advance!

This is getting confusing.
First, there is iTunes the application. That should open no matter what, even if it opens to a blank library.
Second, there are all the library contents (what's in your iTunes folder) which should also open when you start iTunes and present you with what you're used to seeing.
It seems to me that it is your application that isn't starting (and so the comment about replacing with your backup doesn't apply). Is this correct? If so, I personally don't have the answer since I don't run Lion and don't know it's insallation procedure. I thought iTunes application was part of the OS for Lion and should be automatically installed. Maybe you do need to say yes when it asks you if you want to install it.
I am assuming you did a complete backup of your hard drive before upgrading to a new OS, so in case it did actually wipe out your library (which it should not have) you can get all your files back?

How to re-install iTunes after receiving "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package ..." message?

Hi,
This is how it all started. When the new update for iTunes 11 came out, I tried to update it. After I had updated it I found nothing had changed. So i tried rebooting my computer and everything and found that still nothing had changed. So I tried uninstalling it. After that I tried to re-install it, but it came up with the
"There is a problem with this Windows Installer package ..." message. So I looked around the internet and found a website that told me to uninstall all Apple products. So i did that. When i tried to uninstall Apple Software Update, it came up with the 'problem with windows' message again. So I used Revo to uninstall it. So I rebooted and tried to install it again. It installed Bonjour and all of the other programs but stopped halfway and gave me the 'proplem with windows' message again. I've looked around and most of the solutions have been to try and repair Apple Software Update, but the problem is, I've already deleted it. So can someone PLEASSEEEE help me fix this problem! (Sorry for droning on)

How do I restore iTunes after after updating to 10.7.3?

after updating to 10.7.3 my iTunes could not locate my music library. How do I restore it?

First, where was your old library located? In the default location on the internal drive? If it was on the internal drive, do you still see your media there? Do you see your library file?
Here's how things should look if you were using default settings. If you had customized iTunes then you will be the only one who knows where the files should be and if they are still there:
What are the iTunes library files? - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660
More on iTunes library files and what they do - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITunes#Media_management
iTunes 9: Understanding iTunes Media Organization - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3847

If you do not see your media or library files or any of this anywhere on your drive then you will have to start from scratch again unless you have a backup. Always back up before installing any major software.

Then i deleted the itunes.exe file and redownloaded itunes and it worked!! Not sure how doing what i did solved it, but it did so i is a happy sausage.

How can I open iTunes after recent update 01/25/2014

After installing the recent update for iTunes, I can't open iTunes. Tried to uninstall/reinstais missing, with same results. I have received several error messages: MSVCR80.dill is missing. Please re-install, error 7 Windows error (126).
When will this corrupted download be fixed? I can't access iTunes at all.

Do the following:
Uninstall from Windows the following four programs: iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour and Apple Application Support. You do this from an applet in Control Panel called Programs & Features (in Windows 8, 7, or Vista) or Add or Remove Programs (in Windows XP).
Download the latest version of iTunes from Apple and note the location you're saving it to so you can find it once it's done.
Run the iTunes installation as an administrator, just Right click iTunes installer and Run as Administrator.

How to reconnect to iTunes after computer crash

My computer crashed on 9-28, but repairman able to save my files & iTunes library...When I try to enter iTunes, I get message that I am not connected to Apple...
My question is, I have all my files, titles, etc. How do I reconnect to iTunes??
Need answer ASAP...

You will need other software to do this easily. Yamipod, Anapod maybe? Never used either and there are others.
It is also possible to do yourself with iPod in disk mode but you would have to figure out file structure and naming.

How to restore my itunes after clean Leopard install

Hi!
I made a complete backup of my MAC hard drive before doing a completely clean install of leopard.
can someone tell me what I need to do (and where to go) to get the data off the backup image to make itunes work like before?
thanks!

Copy the entire iTunes folder including music to the new location.
Click on the iTunes icon to start it, then immediately press an hold the Option key.
iTunes will ask to Create new library or Choose existing library. Select Choose existing library and select the library in the folder you just moved.
You will not need to set the iTunes prefs -> Advanced.

How Do I Reinstate Itunes Library Files?

I've switched jobs and PCs. I have copies of the iTunes Library files, so what do I do to reinstigate my Playlists etc onto the new PC? All the files and music are stored on an external harddrive.
Any ideas peeps?

Use the Administrative Tools in the control panel to make sure that your external hard drive has the same letter on your new machine as it did on the old one. For example, my external hard drive is E:/. When I bought a new P.C. and plugged the drive in, it was mapped initially as F:/ and itunes couldn't find any of my songs. Once I changed the drive to E:/ itunes worked fine.
