How do you get your songs back?

I lost all my songs in my library and my ipod just comes up blank.Someone said i could get all my songs back.How?

...And people said we would never walk on the moon...
As long as you have not reloaded much (or any) new information to the iPod, the following links will direct you to software that has a chance of recovering some or all of your iPod’s music files. Most are not shareware or freeware, so you may have to spend a little money.....
This PodSalvage software will only work with Macs running OS X. See the PodSalvage page at SubRosaSoft.com: http://www.subrosasoft.com/MacSoftware/index.php?mainpage=product_info&productsid=2
This link will give you several 'Erased iPod' recovery resources for both Mac and Windows users:

Make sure you read through many of the posts on the iLounge – some folks had good results, others had poor results. There seems to be a split camp on the effectiveness of recovery programs.
Either way, strongly consider a backup strategy after you recover/replace your music:

    how do you get your itunes back if you uninstall in on your computer

    Does the book show in the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks for downloading, and the amount that's come off your card is the book's price, it's not a temporary store holding charge (which should disappear within a few days or so) ?
    If it doesn't show in Purchased then you could check to see if it shows in your Purchaes history so that you can use the 'report a problem' link from it : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    If doesn't show there or the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking some people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.
    For the card being declined, if it's a debit card then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined
    If it's a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support as above and see if they know why it's being declined.

    Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola.
    If it's a Mac, try Senuti or Music Rescue.

  • How do you get your old back ups back

    how do you get your old back ups back

    Typically iCloud and iTunes only save the latest backup. In reality, when you subsequently backup, the last backup is modified with the changes and you only have one backup. The except seems to be if you restore from backup it appears that that backup is retained.
    Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage and Backup>Manage Storage and to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and see if more than one backup is listed.

  • How do you get your space back?

    I have downloaded apps on my 4s that I deleted but I want the space back so I can put more music on it.
    How do I get the GB back?

    You will need to delete things that are taking up more space. Apps aren't usually taking up much space, but if you have videos and music  on your iPhone then that will be the space users. Not sure what GB you have but it looks like you will need to delete some of the music and/or videos if you want to add music to your iPhone. Also, if you have a lot of photos then you might need to consider deleting those after backing them up on your computer or elsewhere so you can free up some space. For those with low GB iPhones this is an issue that unfortunately you discover after it's too late to do anything about it (since we can't add SD cards to upgrade storage space). That's why many people go by the rule of it's better to have more GB than you think you will use than to find out later you should have went with a bigger size. Of course, you'll have those iPhone haters that will gladly point out that is why iPhones are terrible because you can't upgrade the capacity with an SD card.

  • HT2534 How do you get your account back when it's disabled

    How do you make your account enabled from disabled

    You might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on your iPod by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • HT4623 How do you get your music back on your phone?

    Do you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences or do you have manually manage music and videos selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
    Regarding the downloads that haven't been completed, with iTunes on your computer go to Store and select Check for Available Downloads to complete the downloads with iTunes on your computer.
