I downloaded 2000 songs to my computer. During an itunes update 99% of my songs disappeared. Are they in the computer? Can they be restored?

You will have to tell us if they are in the computer. Do a Spotlight serarch for some, or browse your iTunes folder. If they are there, drag them to an empty iTunes playlist window or the Automatically Add To iTunes folder.

Downloaded 2 songs from itunes, when ipod updated all my music disappeared!

OK I haven't downloaded v7 yet. However I have a problem. I downloaded a couple of tunes from iTunes in the same way I have done for a couple of years now. I plug in my ipod to update the library and get a message saying it can't find a whole bunch of songs. Songs I already have and have had on my pod for ages. So once it finished updating, I have the 3 songs I downloaded tonight on it and no more. In iTunes, all my songs are still there, they are still on my hard drive in the right place but they're no longer in my iPod or in my playlists!
How can I get them back onto my iPod? They were all there till tonight and I have no idea what I have done wrong if anything, as I just did the same as always when downloading from itunes. All the music is still in the usual folder (my documents/itunes/music or something like that) so how the **** do I get the music I HAVE PAID FOR back onto my ipod??? Thanks!

Is your iPod configured to sync these tracks? How do you have your iPod set up to sync music from your iTunes library?

HT1473 I just got a new computer and loaded Itunes. All my music is on my new Apple Ipod but I do not know how to sync it from the Ipad TO ITUNES so I can put all my playlists back on the computer for home sharing. Can anyone help with the answer? Thanks!

How do you Sync Playlists (Music) from my ipod Nano TO ITUNES? I know how to sync it the other way, from the computer (Itunes) to the ipad, but I just got a new computer and all the music is only on my Ipod Nano. Any help would be greatly appreaciated. Thanks! Pete B

Your music will only be where you put it.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. use yout backup copy to put everything back.

I just downloaded The Rolling Stones Hyde Park concert from ITunes. All songs play, except Street Fighting Man, which I am supposed to authorize on my computer, but after doing so, it still doesnt work. Why and what can I do.

Hi,
Probably corrupted on download. Delete from library and go to iTunes Store > purchased and redownload.

If you still have the 'pointers' to them in the Music part of your iTunes library (i.e. where you would click on them to play them) then iTunes will assume that you still have them and will show them as downloaded in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the iTunes store home page - if you try deleting one of them then it should get the cloud symbol for re-downloading, and you can do the same for the others.

Drag the folder into the library in the open iTunes program window.

thanks for the reply. guess i'll have to do that. apple, not really happy with what you've done with this latest update. have not been able to enjoy my music in my car since the update. most of us dont mind changes that progress timely, but this was much more than just a progression. this was a complete change. and not a good one, at all. thanks to the two people that replied. appreciate it.

TS1424 I downloaded a song that I purchased from the ITunes store, but the song does not play properly. How can I re-download the same song without having to purchase it a second time?

I could not find an option to "report a problem".
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

I have just required a second hand mac and when I try to download a song or import a cd to iTunes an error notice says that I am not priveledged to make changes? The preference settings and apple I'd seem to be ok. How do I fix this?

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

Bought a new computer, and new ipod 160 GB. I went to sync all my music and it's telling me that the computer isn't authorized. I authorize it and it still won't let me syn these songs

Bought a new computer, and new ipod 160 GB. I went to sync all my music and it's telling me that the computer isn't authorized. I authorize it, by going to store and authorize this computer, and it still won't let me sync these songs

Think you got to reboot or relaunch iTunes after the Authorization.
but here is the Apple support Article on Authorization and sync to iPod

I would like to know how I can transfer all my purchases to a new computer. The laptop which all the music is stored, is broken.

You can also re-download most previous purchases (not just songs) from the iTunes Store from the Purchased screen. So, you should be able to get the "one missing purchase" back too. Sign in to iTunes using the Apple ID used to make the purchases. Go to the iTunes Store. (With the new iTunes 12, select the Music category first, then go to the iTunes Store.) Click on Purchased (along right side under QUICK LINKS). From the Purchased screen, you can find and download previous song purchases, at no cost.
You can also re-download purchases from other iTunes categories, such as Movies and TV Shows.

HT204411 i live in indonesia an it appears i couldnt find any songs or albums to buy in itunes store... so how can i buy this things???

i live in indonesia an it appears i couldnt find any songs or albums to buy in itunes store... so how can i buy this things??? is there another way for me to buy songs or albums in itunes store??

They are not currently available in Indonesia, so you won't be able to buy them from Apple. Do you have access to other music purchase download sites ? You can also copy your own CDs via your computer's iTunes.
