How To Retrieve Lost Songs and iTunes Error Messages Persist?

I had my computer wiped clean recently, and apparently when I reinstalled iTunes I mistakenly wiped out all my library and my Ipod music also, during the installation process.{I am not sure if the Ipod music library is still on my external hard drive cuz I can't open iTunes due to the error messages}
. Since this time I keep getting error messages from iTunes as soon as I complete my iTunes installation. I have reinstalled Itunes with the hard drive off and on, and still get the error signature message{{iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close} with files in report like this:C:\docume~1\Roger\locals~1\temp\a476_accompat.txt
So I what do I do now? Help!!!!!!!!!!!

Make sure you still have SP 2 installed on your Windows XP.
Click start.
Right click My Computer
Click Properties
If you need to update your service pack to SP2, you can download and install it from www.microsoft.com
If you do still have SP 2 installed on your computer, just try reinstalling iTunes.

You may also want to try downloading and installing the standalone version of Quicktime, which is required to be on your computer in order for iTunes to run.

  • Help! While downloading Lion, I lost WIFI and got error message  . . .

    While downloading Lion, I lost WIFI and got error message "An error has occurred." Tried to re-download and the dowload icon says "OSX Lion--Waiting . . . " Please help!! What should I do?

    Don't worry about the download, you can go back to the AppStore > Purchases tab and download it again.
    Or from another Mac if you have one. Try a restart, it may even start the download where it left off.

  • How to validate VO result and display error message?

    Hi,
    I have created 2 pages:
    Page 1: User to enter employee number and click 'Go' button to search (redirect to Page 2)
    Page 2: To display employee details
    In situation where employee is suspended, employee detail will be display as blank in Page 2.
    At the same time, we would like to display error message which inform user to refer to HR Department for this scenario.
    Need guidance on how to perform the validation and display error message.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Shiau Chin

    Hi Shiau,
    In this case instead of redirecting to next page, throw an exception on the same page.
    If you want redirect it to next page then while redirecting it to next page pass some info that can indicate that employee is suspended, get this value in Process request if it has value then throw exception else query details.

  • Can't play any songs from iTunes, error message "can't find"

    I just got an iPod as a present (I'm behind the times) and I put songs on my iPod from some one elses computer. The problem is, now none of the songs on that persons computer will play, I get an error message saying, "the song [insert song name here] could not be used because the original file could not be found." My iTunes is fine, but my friends computer is not!!! Is there any way to fix this, I really hope i didn't just delete all their songs (I didn't even put most of them on my iPod).
    Thanks for any help!

    Your songs might be taking up too much room in your iPod.
    Open iTunes, right-click on a song. Make sure the song is no bigger than 4 MB and it's a MPEG file.
    Also, in iTunes, click "Edit" and then go down to "Preferences". Click the 'Advanced" tab and then the "Importing" tab. Make sure your songs are encoded using AAC Encoder and a high quality setting of 128 kpbs.
    If your song information is different from what I just told you then this is the reason why your songs won't fit in your iPod and there's not enough room.

  • Windows and itunes error message

    I get an error message each time I install itunes. "itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close." I can't get itunes to open. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall with no success. I even tried system restore. How can I resolve this?

    itunes is installed and works fine until I close the program for a short time. When I try to open itunes at a later time I get the original error message. The only way I can get itunes to run again is to uninstall and reinstall again, only to repeat the same results. How can I get itunes to install and run without any problems?

  • How to retrieve cleared songs from iTunes manually

    HELP!!!!! i had at least 200 songs then i got tired of some of them and cleared a bunch off and now i cant find them i need to know where to find them and how i can put them back on my iPod manually PLEASE HELP!!!!!

    If you cleard songs off of iTUnes there most likly in
    1) the recycle bin
    2) Somewhere in the "My Music" folder
    You need to find where these files are first. Once found you can drag and drop them to iTUnes or goto File>add folder to library to add everything in the folder to iTUnes. You can also try the search feature in windows to find the music.

  • How to retrieve deleted songs from itunes albums list

    hi,
    In my itunes library I've got several albums. Since a long time (me or someone else arround me) have deleted randomly some tracks from some albums. So these songs are no more available in iTunes list (xml file) nor in the hard disk. All the scripts I've found on the net cannot help me to get ths list of removed tracks.
    My question is : "Is there a script or software able to retreive the list of missing song in each album I've in my iTunes application (macintosh) ? I think that thi magic script should perhaps query the CDDB database or someting like that.
    Any help would be appreciated

    Unless you have a copy of a .xml file with the play lists contents before deleteing - your are outta luck.
    Even if you have a .xml file the actual files - from your discription - have been deleted from the HD - hence you will need to add those tunes back into iTunes - then add those tunes back into the PL.

  • How do I retrieve lost notes and pictures

    How do I retrieve lost notes and pictures

    Not sure about pictures, but for iphone notes:
    After many hours of trying everything to retrieve my lost notes (several just disappeared overnight for no reason) it dawned on me that they were linked to one of my email accounts (In my case yahoo).
    I logged into that account directly from the yahoo site (not iphone mail!) and "Voila!" all of my notes, even the disappeared ones, were there!
    Took some cut & pasting and I'm back in business.
    Hope this helps.

  • Does anyone know how to retrieve lost mailbox folders and their contents in mail?

    Does anyone know how to retrieve lost mailbox folders and their contents in mail?

    It might be that you selected "Delete sent mail after a mont (or a week, or whatever)" in Mail Preferences. iCloud account is IMAP, so it won't keep mail in your HD. I have that problem.

  • Updating iTunes 12.1 and get error message "The procedure entry point CMBlockBufferCopyDataBytes could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreMedia.dll - what went wrong and how to resolve this?

    Updating iTunes 12.1 and get error message "The procedure entry point CMBlockBufferCopyDataBytes could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreMedia.dll". What went wrong and how to resolve this?

    Entry point errors can often be fixed by deleting the offending dll, then repairing the component it is part of.
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
    iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
    which is a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of the core application, similar to previous 64-bit releases.
    Or roll back to the previous build:
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)
