I accidently deleted my "recently added" playlist. how do I get it back?

I'm very new to itunes and having trouble getting the hang of it.
I was trying to clean up some playlist files and was attempting to delete songs I didn't want or need. I hit shift-delete and all of sudden EVERYTHING disappeared. the songs I had purchased... stuff I had recently uploaded... everything.
I went to the recycle bin and hit "restore" in the hopes that things would come back, but no luck.
I was able to search my computer and get the songs I needed back, but it was quite frustrating. in addition, one of the things that disappeared that I wasn't able to retrieve was the "recently added" playlist, which was actually quite helpful to me.
I attempted to upload a new CD to see if it would recreate the "recently added" list, but no luck.
how do I get that back and make sure that future uploads are automatically saved to that playlist?
thanks in advance for any help.

In iTunes go to File>New Smart Playlist
Recently Added:
Match the rule "Date Added">"is in the last">"1">"Days" make the days and the interval to suit yourself, you can have days, weeks or months.
Check the box "Live Updating"

  • I accidently deleted my 'recently bookmarked' tab, how do I get it back?

    I've been trying and doing everything I can think of to get it back, just short of re-installing Firefox. Can someone tell me if I can fix without having to do that, I'd really like to keep all my bookmarks, add-ons, sites and saved passwords.

    If you deleted it from the Bookmarks, I am sorry there is no way to recover it back. You may try to search the Browsing history.

  • I accidently deleted my "recently added" playlist.. how do I get it back?, I accidentily deleted my "recently added" playlist.. how do I get it back?

    "Recently Added" playlist was one that came with iTunes. How in the world do I get it back?

    When you are editing the rules it is worth knowing that it would normally look something like this, but of course you are free to use whatever rules you want.

  • I've deleted my Podcasts folder/playlist how do I get it back.

    I've searched for this, and I can't find an answer on the 'net.
    So I did something stupid. I deleted the Podcasts folder/playlist (whatever it's called - the default container with the Person surrounded by concentric rings icon) on my iPod Touch through iTunes.
    How can I get it back? I've tried creating a New Playlist and I've tried creating a New Smart Playlist.
    Is there any other way?

    Select the iPod touch in iTunes.
    Click the Podcasts tab and select what you want to sync to the touch.

  • Ah! I accidently deleted a Dock Icon. How do I get it back?

    I just deleted the icon that comes as a default (I guess) and its right next to the trash icon and it starts up the Mac OS X Website. It looks like a little slinky, coil, or spring and its silver. Oh man...I don't know where it went! How can I get it back? I remembered it poofed away.

    All that icon was was a shortcut to the Apple OS X page. You can get it back by dragging the favicon (the little picure icon in your browser's address bar) to where you want it to be on the dock.
    You can put any URL on your dock like this. I deleted it right away myself, but if you want it back, the page linked to is right HERE.

    If you have a backup of the iPod then your can restore the iPod from that backup.  Otherwise you will have to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.  See the restore topic of:
