I clicked agree and most of my music disappeared?!
What happened and how do I get it back?
I had restored my iPhone 5 to factory settings and that cleared the problematic "Other" problem. Flash forward a couple weeks and the problem has once again resurfaced.
I tried updating iTunes and iOS to the newest versions and the problem still persists.
I'm officially ready to switch to Windows Phone or Android now...
*edit*
A Google search with results restricted to the last month shows that this problem seems to be becoming more and more common.

So my iPhone was stolen and most of the music on there was on a computer that I don't have anymore. Is it possible to get those songs back from my stolen phone or are they gone?
For iTunes purchased music you might be able to re-download it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes. For music from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs) then unless you had subscribed to iTunes Match and uploaded it to it from your computer then no, it won't be stored anywhere

I want to chang the music on my i pod and most of the music i do not have no more that is on my ipod, how do I chang it?
If you have an iBook G4, (PPC) you can't do much.
But if that is a MacBook (intel) you may be able to
upgrade the OS X, if the hardware is up to it...
Since there were about nine different build models
of MacBook (not powerpc iBook) to identify what
one you have would be the first step to knowing
what OS X and RAM upgrades it could use.
If the computer is not already at OS X 10.6.8,
it can't go online to get or use OS X 10.7.5. So,
when you more accurately describe the 'Book,
detailed information is available.
When you find the serial number, there is a web
page that can be used to identify by serial no.
http://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php
That'd be a first step. Or even the Model number
which should be visible on the outer case by hinge.
Good luck & happy computing! -
Cant update to ios 8.1.2 or 8.1.3, click agree and nothing happens
I Have been unable to update to ios 8.1.2 or 8.1.3, i go through steps and click agree and nothing happens, can someone help, i tried rebooting as well
Good day nerinjinie,
Are you having an issue with updating your iPhone's operating system over the air, or are you trying to do this through iTunes on a computer? If the former, I would suggest trying to do this through iTunes. See this article for instructions -
Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Safe computing,

When I click agree and install a blank box appears with a red X
Hi, ive been having a problem installing shockwave player for
IE recently.
The problem is that when i click "agree and install shockwave
player" the next page (where it is meant to show the installation
progress) comes up with a white box with a red X top left corner.
It seems when i try and re download shockwave off the shockwave
website, it goes straight to the installation page and doesn't show
the active X warning (I don't know if this is relevant). I can
however download it on download.com but then there it doesn't seem
to install!
The same red X comes up when trying to load games on internet
explorer that require shockwave.
I am running Windows XP SP3 with Kaspersky Internet Security
2009 (however, this problem was before i had KIS2009). All
suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Nickquote:

IPod touch 4G deleted settings app and most of my music HELP please
I have an iPod touch 4G 64GB running on ios 5. Last night I slid the bar to unlock the screen and the slider stayed locked to the right and the iPod had locked up. I left it and went to bed. This morning it opened OK but my settings app has disappeared. I have looked for it in spotlight search and it doesn't come up and being on my device. Other weird things happened also. All my apps had been organised into folders and all my folders have gone and i now have 10 screens of apps. Also most of my music has gone from the music player. When I go to browse my music around 90% of it is showing grey in the song list and can't be played. Around 10% shows black and plays on the device. This iPod is around 1 year old (christmas present from a year ago) and has never been jailbroken. Can someone please help because i know that it is impossible to delete any of the default apps but the settings app has gone from the device entirely.
OK I have solved the problem I had so wanted to post it up here in case anyone else ever has the same problem. Actually I haven't solved the problem.....the problem was that my iPod removed all of my apps from their folders....the consequence was that i had more than 176 apps which is the most that will fit on the 11 pages apple allow us to have on the device.....so I started putting them back into folders....I would get them down to 3-4 pages then do a reset (holding home and off button etc)....then when the device restarted more apps appeared and my settings was one of them.....I figure that is why it wouldn't show up in spotlight search either....it wasn't that it was hidden rather there wasn't room for it on the device. Hope this helps others.......and APPLE.....please find out why my iPod removed all my apps frim their folders in the first place.

The iTunes update 11.1 crashed my old computer. I have purchased a new HP laptop- Windows 8. Most of my music has appeared in purchases on the iTunes library but there is still heaps missing. Help where is it and how do I retrieve it?
Evie52Hello Evie52,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
Where are my iTunes files located?

iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1408
Still can't find your media?
If the missing media is on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod (and you purchased the media from the iTunes Store), you can transfer the media back to your computer using iTunes.
If the missing media is on another computer, you can transfer your iTunes media between authorized computers on your local network using the Home Sharing feature in iTunes.
If the missing media is an app, song, album, music video, or book, you may be able to download it again free of charge.
If you still can't find your missing media, you may need to restore from a backup, if possible.
Learn how to restore from a backup on an external hard drive. Use these steps only if you backed up to an external drive.
Learn how to restore from a time machine backup.
If a backup isn't available, your media may be lost and you may need to purchase replacements.
Best of luck,

I bought a soong today from itunes. While the song was downloading, my phone blinked off. Came back on and finished downloading the song. Problem is now ALL of my other music is gone. Anyone know how to get it back? Does it correct itself after it backs up to the icloud tonite? Can I do a "back up now" to my icloud to retrieve it? Completely lost and frustrated... HELP!
A backup doesn't contain the contents of the Music app (nor the Videos app). Have you tried closing the Music app via the phone's multitasking bar and seeing if the music shows when you re-open the app ? Double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag the Music app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
You could also try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.
If that doesn't work then if the music was purchased from iTunes, then depending upon what country that you are in (and if the music is still in your country's store) then you might be able to redownload it via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone. Or have you been connecting your phone to your computer's iTunes and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over - if you have then you can sync them back. -
I got this iPod from someone else and all of their music is still there. But the few albums that I bought myself are completely gone. I can't find it in my library or purchased folder, or anywhere. Why is it gone, but more importantly, how do I get it back?
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
ALso see:
iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
since the iPod has to be associated with the account to redownload them -
I applied a settings update to my Iphone 3GS and most of my icons went away. I can only open them by going to the app store, searching the name, and clicking open. How do I get the icons back? Also how do you delete an app?

Sync it from your iTunes library.
If necessary

If you updated via iTunes, it the synced media like music was not in your iTunes library it is gone. Yo will have to get non-Tunes purchases the same way you obtained them before. -
Please help!! About a week ago I opened my iTunes to find that all but 200 something of my songs were missing (I had 1,000 something the day before) and all of my current playlists were gone. They've been replaced by playlists that I had nearly four years ago and have long since deleted. It also says "Previous iTunes Libraries" at the top. I am SO frustrated because everything is gone!!!
Nevermind, once I posted this topic it gave me some helpful related topics on the side and I found my answer! Would have been nice if it could have given me those before I posted this!!! Anyway, if anyone else sees this and is having the problem, press and hold the Shift key while double clicking to open itunes on your desktop, then it will ask you to select a library and just choose the one with the most recent date!! (Use the Opt key instead of Shift for Mac users). I owe alot of thanks to the person on the board that helped me, been frustrated for DAYS!!! THANK YOU!
