I had to format my HD, now iTunes says my iPOD is sync'd with another computer. How do I get my iPOD's music back in to the library and sync it with the computer again?
I had to format my computers hard drive. Now the iTunes thinks my iPOD is sync'd with another computer. How do I get re-sync the iPOD and computer and get my songs on the iPOD back in to the iTunes library. Thanks!
Can't tell you exactly, as it can be used to facilitate piracy and Apple blocks this sort of thing from occuring (except for itunes purchased music)
But you can find out what your looking for at iLounge, i'd suggest that method for "mixed" music from different sources, that way you get it all back.
Next time, hit the iTunes menu and backup your library to disks, only takes a few minutes and a few DVD-R's.
Good Luck

So if I got a new computer how can I get all my old music back?
My old labtop with my entire itunes library is no longer accessable so how do I get all my previous music back? Please help me!
Put it on the new computer.
Installing iTunes and logging into a user's account has never caused media to magically appear on a computer.
Copy the entire iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.
Alternatively, type "move iTunes library" into the search bar on this site for detailed instructions. -
I recently had to uninstall itunes and reinstall it again. How do I get my previously purchased music back on my itunes?
Depending on what country that you are in you might be able to re-download past music purchases via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page - re-downloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
But if you only re-installed iTunes and you didn't remove the actual music from your computer, then it should still be on there, and you should be able to add it back into iTunes via File > Add Folder To Library - by default your iTunes content should have been stored under :
Windows 7 and Vista : \users\username\My Music\iTunes.
Windows XP : \user\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes. -
I have restored and updated my ipod from recovery mode, however I still have the usb cord and itunes icon on the ipod when it is switched on. How can I get my ipod to work again?

3. Connected to itunes
4. Pressed restore and update ipod
Update successful and ipod taken out of recovery mode -
iTunes has taken my money but no song has been downloaded onto my ipod touch or computer, How do I get my song or money back?
I cannot seem to trace where the purchase went but it money is gone from account and I have no song.
Please help!Starting at the end:
- When the movie or tv show does transfer onto your iphone/ipod touch you will be able to see it in the expanded view of your device in the "DEVICES" section.
- If the files are not on your device, then:
-- confirm you have SD or HD-SD video. HD-only content will not play and probably will not even sync. iTunes seems to reliably have SD versions with their HD distributions so this should not be an issue
-- confirm you are synch-ing the content to the ipod device by browsing the DEVICE view's Movie or TV Show tabs to confirm the movie or episode is 'checked'
- If the files are on the iPod and you cannot find them, check your Settings: General for Restrictions. If you restrict, for example the movies to "G" rating. PG and higher movies will sync but you will not be able to find them on the iPod! -
Sir,
I have installed itunes in the c drive of my computer which has got less space that is less than 1.5 gb,I copied the folders from another Ipod to the external hard disk from the ipod contacts music folder, but when I choose the folder to the library from external hard disk the folder is not highlighted in the itunes, but when I choose all the files of a single folder and copy to the library of itunes it is extracted and the files of that folder gets synced to my ipod, but when we do for the next folder files the previous files gets deleted and the next folder files get synced, Is there any solution in this regard please. I want to copy nearly music of 148 gb.

Immediately after I updated my firefox a couple of weeks ago, the browser started to display a yahoo toolbar. At the time my husband took it off using the control panel and add/remove program function on the computer.
since this am, the toolbar has come back up. I did NOT do anything to request it, or put it there. It is not showing up on my program list, I cannot find it when I do a search of my computer. When I went to yahoo help "remove toolbar" the two suggestions were to do that or use the settings button to remove it, but the settings menu on this doesn't have that option, unless maybe I would create an account, log in, and then remove it. I don't really want to do that either.
I don't know where this came from, and don't really trust it. I would like to take it off, but can't seem to figure out how.I figured it out! Click on the Orange 'Firefox' tab on the upper left hand side of the Firefox browser, Choose 'Options', then deselect 'Yahoo! toolbar'.

I use i-tunes for backing tracks. How can I set up a play list to play only one song at a time and not go to the next one until I manually select it?
ThanksUncheck all the songs in the playlist. iTunes will then play one song and stop.

My phone is saying iphone is disabled, connect to itunes. When I do this, itunes says the phone is locked and I need to enter the password. I do not know the password and it will not give me any other screen, other than the one that says iphone is disabled, connect to itunes. What do I do to reset.
If they were songs you purchased from itunes, try redownloading them from your purchases...
if that doednt work, make sure the optuon to copy files to itunes media folder is checked in settings, then find and download from the net. and re-add them to your library -
I deauthorized all my old computers to make it so my sister and I could get ITunes on our new computers, I authorized my computer now and i will authorize hers tomorrow but its not showing my past purchages on itunes in my library. How do I get my old songs back?
Have you copied them from your old computer via one of the methods described on the page that you posted from ? Your music will only show on your new computer's iTunes library if you put it onto it, so you will either need to copy it from your old computer, from your backup of your library and add it via File > Add To Library, or (depending upon whether you are in a country where you can re-download music and if the music is still in the store) you might be able to re-download your purchases via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your new computer.

My company uses SalesForce CRM and recently changed wholesale to Macs. Unfortunately, certain functions in SalesForce are not compatible with the current version of Safari or any version of FireFox newer than 3.0 and we need to be able to use those functions. How can I download that version for the Mac?
There is also a portable Firefox 3.0 version via this link:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/osxportableapps/PortableFirefox_3.0_en-US-OSX_r4.0u.dmg?download
It can take some time before the download starts.
