I did the iOS5 update and now a lot of my songs can't be located

I updated my iphone with the iOS5 and then it automatically synced to my computer.  Now about 600 of my songs won't play in my itunes because it says it cannot locate the original files.  I bought the majority of my music through itunes and can't understand why it wouldn't be able to find the original file. Help!

An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

  • I did the iTunes update and now I am getting a Windows error 126 message.

    I did the iTunes update and now I am getting a Windows error 126 message. Now I can't use iTunes at all. Any ideas?

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • I did the IOS update and now now have no music. it is saying my music is there on Itunes put have nothing on my phone?

    i did the ios udate and now have no music on my phone. it is saying my music is there on itunes but nothing when I go into it on my phone? Have checked that the sync all music box is ticked? any ideas?

    If you JUST updated, you may need to leave the phone connected and give it time as it is still syncing even though you are able to use your phone. That is part of the new OS, the ability to use your phone while it is processing in the background. If that's not the issue, try what the previous reply suggested. That's what worked for me when my music appeared to be in my iPod, but would not play.

  • I did the software update and now all the ATV does is have a blinking light.  On my TV there was the "notes" and the new cable shown.  I tried the restart (metal remote) Menu and down button and nothing happened.

    I did the software update and after downloading and loading the ATV just hung-up with a fast blinking white light on the front of ATV.  Tried a reset with the remote - Menu /downkey and nothing happened.  Is the software corrupt or did it wipe out my ATV?

    Apple TV 1st generation or 2nd?
    I would try plugging in the HDMI from the ATV to a different HDMI port on your TV and even trying the ATV on a different TV altogether...sounds like the HDMI port on your TV might be bad or a bad connection. Keep in mind you'll need to switch the TV input to the new HDMI port

  • Ive purchased ringtones from itunes.  They were assigned to contacts.  I did the latest update and now now of them are in the list of ringtones.  I've synced twice and they are not on my iphone.  Does anyone know how to find them?

    Ive purchased ringtones from Itunes.  They were working before I did the recent update.  I cannot find them on the iPhone and they are no longer assigned - I had five. I have synced several times and does anyone know where they are or how to assign them again?

    On your iPhone tap Settings > Store
    Make sure Music is switched on.
    Now reset your iPhone.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • HT1212 I did the 10s7 update and now I recieve all my text back after I send them and My wifes text she recieves goes to my phone.When updating it said my phone was now using her appleid how can we change that

    I did an update to the 1os7 and now I recieve my wifes text that she reiceves and the text I send out comes right back to me as the recipent..How do I fix this.When updating it said I was using my wifes apple ID

    Thanks too all the people who responded. . . . (noone)
    Got it sorted though. Seems that Apple has issues with multiple apple id's.
    Seems i had to somehow remember and use the original id i had when i first bought my 1st iPhone. . . .
    Even after that it was extremely hard to get my apps back on my PC.
    If anyone else has the same problem. . . .email Apple. Cya.

  • HT201412 ok i did the new update and now my phone wont even start up! the apple logo comes up then the screen will flash and the phone will shut off. any ideas?

    as listed in the title, my phone just flashes on me no start up just flashes from the apple logo to shutting off and back and forth i did the update this afternoon (9-26-2012) and it still wont start up!!!

    Something in your backup may be corrupt. Try wiping it and setting it up as a new device, then sync your apps, data and media back to it from iTunes. DO NOT resotre from your backup. If the problem is contained in the backup, it will bring it right back again if you restore.

  • I did the latest update and now my phone screen is stuck on trying to connect to iTunes

    After uploading the latest update, my iPhone is frozen on a screen that shows a power cord with an arrow pointing to iTunes. when I try to turn the phone off, the screen goes blanks theNetherlands Apple symbol comes on and thenit goes back to the iTunes screen.

    You need to connect your phone to a computer with iTunes, and restore it to factory settings.  You can then restore the device using a previous backup (if you have one).

  • I did the recent update and now itunes no longer works and I get a MobileMe error in Outlook

    I can't get Itunes to work since the latest upgrade and I get an error in outlook about MobileMe.   I tried to reinstall Itunes but there is an error thaere and the program aborts.

    MobileMe was discontinued at the end of June 2012. The control panel should be removed if still present. See HT2992: MobileMe: Uninstalling the MobileMe Control Panel for Windows for details.

  • I did the latest update and now my contact info does not show on incoming calls or text

    can anyone assist?

    Try to restore your iphone via iTunes or update to ios6.1.2.
    If itunes gives an error with restoring (DFU/Recovery or just normal)
    try this:
    open your computer and search on windows; C://windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
    open up the hosts file in note pad you will see IP adresses and more add another line and put in this:
    #74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
    this is a by-pass to the cydia/saurik restore server, it has nothing to do with jailbreaking over voiding apple's warranty
    let me know if succeeded!

    My phone 5s 16gb gold did the new update and will not come back on. I already tried hard reboot still won't work. Been over a hour now. Please someone help I need my phone.   This phone is not even 6 months old been in case no scratches. This is driving me crazy.

    Connect your phone to a computer and restore your software using iTunes.

  • I recently did an apps update and now the update is locked and I have 15 apps I can't open. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    I recently did an apps update and now the update is locked and I have 15 apps I can't open.  Any ideas on what may have caused this and to fix it?

    If Ralph's suggestion doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.
