HT201272 Most of my songs are gone. Please help?
Not all of my purchases are coming up in my itunes. But I have the receipts. Any help, please?
- Thank You!
Where did you click this button?
Is this with using Firefox Sync?

Did you remove personal data when uninstalling?
Did you backup any data locally?

Most of my songs are gone and I want them back
I recently was asked by iTunes if I wanted my songs stored in the cloud or on my computer. Not thinking I said the cloud. Most of my songs are not available because they have an "error". I want my library of songs back.
According to other forums this is simply caused because of a backup problem (this can be any number of things). You can either restore to the backup yourself (if the backup is not corrupted and still available) sync everything back on manually
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
Thanks -
i have over 5000 songs on my computer. Which is from songs bought from iTunes and from cd. i had all the songs on my iPod. went to download new songs and only 1500 songs are download . please help
Since all of your music came from your computer in the first place, then it should still be there and should be included in your backup copy of your computer.
" it told me when i pluged hers in 2 ipods could not use the same account"
This is not true. You have misunderstood.
You can sync as many ipods/iphones/ipads as you like to one one library. -
I got a new lap top and my husband thought it would be a good idea to help me by downloading itunes on it. Well Not so much... I have not used icloud but do have it on my phone and other items. When he pugged my phone in to my laptop it asked if he wanted to backup he said yes. Then it reset my phone and now all my pictures are gone please help
If your phone was backed up to your computer, the backup would contain your camera roll photos (and videos). Restoring to this backup would recover them. However, if it was backed up a second time after losing them, this would overwrite the backup containing the data and your photos would be lost.
You can try restoring to your backup, but before doing so go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check "Prevent...from syncing automatically". This will prevent the phone from automatically syncing and backing up when you connect it to your computer, thereby overwriting the backup you want to restore to. After doing this, open iTunes on your computer and connect your phone, then right-click on the name of your phone on the left side of iTunes and choose Restore from Backup. (If you have iTunes 11 first go to View>Show Sidebar.)
Again this might work, as long as the phone was only backed up and then not subsequently backed up again after the photos were lost. -
After updating to ios5 most of my apps are gone! Help!
I synced my iPad to my iTunes but after updating my iPad to ios5, most of my apps are not in iTunes and they are wiped off of my iPad! What did I do wrong? I can't even remember half of the apps I purchased. Most of them were for my 5-year old son. I downloaded all of them through the App Store. Is there a way to get them all back without knowing what each of them is called? I had so many!!! Someone please help me!
As long as the apps are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 .Those that are still in the store should be listed in the Purchased link on the right-hand side of the iTunes Store home page on your computer's iTunes, and there should be a 'download all' button at the bottom of it so you don't have to re-download them one-by-one.
When you've downloaded them to your computer you could then try restoring to your backup and see if that copies them and their content back to the iPad (the backup itself doesn't contain the actual apps, just their content/settings, so for the restore to work it needs access to the actual apps) -
ALL pictures in iPhoto *and* PhotoBooth are gone :( please help
Hello,
I have a bit of a dilema here. On 6-27-07 (actually 6-28 cause it was after midnight), my daughter and I were taking pictures in photobooth. I selected the iPhoto icon from the PhotoBooth picture to send a copy of those pictures to iPhoto.
PhotoBooth froze up after doing several of them and wouldn't work. I am trying to remember from memory (which is swiss cheese from the MS), but I think I had to do a hard shut down. When I tried to go to iPhoto, it acted like it was my 1st time using it and it began asking me questions as if I was setting it up for the 1st time. ALL pictures are GONE. Everything in iPhoto and PhotoBooth are GONE I don't know what I did or how (if I can) to fix it.
Can anyone possibly help me? Lots of precious memories gone. I was recently going to read how to do a back-up right before this happened. Now I wish I hadn't gone to sleep that night until I learned how to do it and actually did make a back-up
My husband called Apple and they told him to do something and now that has created approximately 3 copies of random pics and not all of them, or I would just delete the extras. My husband may have done something wrong to have it make extra copies of the pictures it has now, I don't know.
My husband didn't seem like he was happy with the help that he was getting at the time. So, I found my way here again!!! I have been to the discussions boards once before, but I forgot how to get here (serious swiss cheese memory from MS). I have to save ALL websites that I like to my favorites or I should say 'Bookmarks' or I will probably never find it again. <embarassed>
**I will tell you a little about me and the use of my mac....... I have Multiple Sclerosis so my husband purchased the lap top to make it easier for me to get online and not be stuck to one chair which makes me hurt bad. I am new to Mac and have always used a PC.
Anyway, when we purchased it we explained that I would mainly be using it for Internet use and for the pictures that I take (I am disabled, so that is about all I can do but I thoroughly enjoy it), which happens to be more than the average person since I have a new Grandson
Any help that anyone can give me, I would TRULY APPRECIATE!!!!!!
Thanks,
New2HimBrenda,
You're quite welcome.
That does sound like your original library. It makes sense to me; your husband was probably told to drag it to the Desktop by the Apple help desk person. Look inside your Pictures folder for the other two iPhoto Library folders. If you don't find them there, do another Finder Search. Click once on a found item in the Search window to see its path at the bottom of that window. That should help you locate those folders.
After you find and rename or delete the other libraries, you will be ready to create a new library. (You might not want to delete those other folders yet - in case some photos are missing from your main library. But if you are sure that nothing in them is original, go ahead and Trash them to free up the space.)
To create a new library, Option-launch iPhoto and click "Create Library." By default it will be located in your Pictures folder and named "iPhoto Library." You can change the name if you want - say, "iPhoto Library New" before you click "Save." A new, empty library will open. Drag the right corner of the window up so that it fills only about half of your screen. Do iPhoto > Preferences > Advanced and make sure that there IS a check in the boxes beside "Copy files to iPhoto Library folder when importing to library" and "Add ColorSync Profile".
On the other half of your screen, open a Finder window. Set it to column view and navigate this path: Desktop/ iPhoto Library/ Originals/ 2007/ (Film Roll folders). It is these Film Roll folders that contain your photos. Select all of the Roll folders and drag them as a group over the iPhoto window until the cursor shows you a green plus symbol. Drop them in the main viewing area of the iPhoto window. iPhoto will indicate to you that it is importing. A film roll will be created for each folder that you dragged. [Tip: if you want an Album to represent each film roll, then drag them to the Source Pane (left column) instead of the main viewing window. This will create an Album and a film roll, both with the same name as the imported folder.]
I have read that the film roll date can be wrong after importing, so you may want to check the dates as you go. Open the Info Pane in the lower left corner of the iPhoto window (click the little i). When you select a Roll, its info will display in the Info Pane. You can edit the Roll's title and date, if you wish.
When the 2007 rolls have all been imported, switch to the Originals/ 2006 folder, select the roll folders, and drag to your iPhoto window. Repeat for each year in your Desktop library.
This will recover your Original, unedited photos in the same film rolls as before. What cannot be saved is your Albums, Slideshows, Books, titles, keywords, ratings, and other metadata. These were contained in the database file that was damaged during the iPhoto hang or subsequent hard shut down.
If you had spent significant time editing your photos, then you may want to have a look in Desktop/ iPhoto Library/ Modified to see if you wish to save any of the edited versions. There is no way to reconnect the edits with their Originals; that info was also stored in the database file. But if you want to import them to your library you may. Be aware that this will cause the appearance of duplication, much like you had in the library your husband created. If you can part with your edited versions, then it is much easier to discard them. (If not, be selective.)
I'll look forward to hearing your progress. Regards,

i had problems with my computer so had to do a factory reset downloaded firefox and all emails and passwords are gone i am new to this and didnt know how to back them up i need these emails and passwords back
If you've reset your Windows setup by doing a factory reset and you didn't make a backup of the personal data in the Firefox Profile Folder before doing this then I'm afraid that all data that Firefox stores in the Firefox Profile Folder is lost.

You should regularly backup your personal data in Firefox to guard against such issues.

Itunes 10.5 Purchased songs are skipping please HELP
Hi, I have a new Dell PC (a month old) with all drivers up to date, running Itunes 10.5.0.142. I also have a brand new Iphone 4s that I just got Wednesday. Everything seemed to be working well then all of the sudden, when playing Itunes on my PC some songs won't complete and they'll skip to the next song. The amount of time left is random. One song will skip with 1:09 to go and another will skip with :49 to go.
On the Iphone, the songs will also skip (at the exact same spot in the song) except the album art remains until the song "should really" complete and then finally the song that it had skipped to, information will appear.
For example, James Blunt's song Cry will skip with 1:09 to go but on my Iphone I will not see the lyrics of the next song until the Cry song finished at the time it should of (the clock is still ticking but the song has skipped ahead).
Much of my library is being affect, but NOT every song on affected albums.
MP3 Music that I imported from CD's is NOT being affected at . It appears to only be happening with AAC Audio Files with albums I have bought from the Apple Store.
Unfortuneatly this is rendering my library useless and reminding me why purchasing physical CD's still makes sense (and I haven't bought a flesh and blood CD since Itunes was born.)
What I have already done to try to fix it:
I rebooted my PC
I reinstalled Itunes, I also redownloaded it in case my install file was corrupt
I unsynced the music on my Iphone and then resynced it again adding the songs back
I tryed the trick I found here in the forums that says to right click and create AAC version, the James Blunt Album is protected, I'm not allowed to do that
I went to GET INFO>OPTIONS and the start and stop blocks are NOT checked on any song in my library
Things I've done recently since the problem appeared:
I bought a ring-tone maker app and made 3 ringtones and synced them with my phone and I'm using them currently on my phone
(will try uninstalling all that right now)
I got a new Iphone, having had an android phone prior
Does anyone else have any ideas or any experience with this please???
Thanks so much for your input!I'm livid too Dan and I haven't heard a word from anyone in support. Since this was called Apple Support Communities I assumed Apple Staff used it to offer support. I suppose that's wrong? I don't know if I'm waiting on an update to the software or if I've just lost hundreds of dollars invested in my music library. If I don't hear from someone soon, I'm done with music purchases on Itunes.
Does anyone know where I should ask for help if this isn't a support forum?
Thanks in advance for any advice. -

All my songs are gone!! Help please.
So I'm on vacation kind of for a month and I brought my iPod with me and the CD that has the iTunes software thing on it so I couldd install it on the computer here so I could download more songs or whatever. But after I installed iTunes, my iPod was totally refeshed and all my songs are gone. I'm pretty sure I could get my songs back from my own computer at home, but I wont be back for more than a month. Is there any way I can get my old playlist back without having to buy them all again?
If you linked your Shuffle to an iTunes with only a few or completely different songs it will have erased your original iPod song list. You will need to connect to your original PC to get them back. iPod Shuffle: FAQ

All songs are gone. Can I get them back?
Hey everyone! O.K. My step-daughter was here for the summer, She got a nano for her b-day and I put all of my songs on her iPod nano. Then she went back to her Mom's and she pluged it into her friends computer(which had iTunes but no songs). A ballon poped up that asked if she wanted to update to new library and she ticked yes. So now, of course, all of her songs are gone. Does anyone know if we can get them back without using my computer(She's 4 hours away)? Please Help!

If those songs originally on the iPod were overwritten with new songs, it's probably a lost cause.

All my Garage Band songs are gone in the app after I uploaded to iCloud.
All my Garage Band songs are gone in the app after I uploaded to iCloud. Where can I retrieve the songs? iCloud doesn't show any Garage Band folder backup. Help please!!!
Is your GarageBand version up to date? If not, upgrade to the latest version. also, you coud try to reset GarageBand to the factory settings. That brought my iCloud projects back.
Open the "Settings" app on your iPad and scroll down to the applications. Open the GarageBand settings and set "Reset GarageBand" to on.
BTW: If there are network problems it sometimes may take a very long time, before the song is downloaded from the cloud again. That is why I never upload the original to iCloud - I duplicate the song and share only a copy to iCloud. Once I am sure the upload has been successful and the cloud version is working I delete the original.
