I recently had to reinstall the factory settings on my laptop and lost all songs in itunes but they'e on my phone. how do i get them back on my phone its so frustrating.

Previously I could drag and drop my songs from desktop to folder, I had to get iTunes 10.4 could that be the cause of my frustrating attempts to get my songs back to iTunes library?
i am also unable to see previously dowmloaded application in itunes. If i select manage songs manually would that require syncing of the two and therefore losing the songs on my phone?

I am assuming you never backed up your computer.
Sounds like you still may have problems with your PC.

  • HT204053 hi i have an ipod which shares same apple id etc as my iphone i was deleting the contacts off my ipod and now they are gone off my phone how can i get them back on my phone? help pls

    hiu i have an ipod which shares same itunes/icloud account as my iphone. i deleted the contacts off ipod and they have now gone off my phone too. anyone help, how can iget these back on my phone?

    When you share an iCloud account between devices, any action you take on one device (such as deleting contacts) is synced to the others.  (That's want iCloud does; syncs data across devices, keeping the data on the devices the same.)
    The only way to recover them now is to try restoring your device to your last backup, or restore them from another backup source.

    IF you have successfully imported your pictures to your Mac http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083  then it's safe to delete it from your phone.
    If you want the pics back on your phone, just sync them back using itunes http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

  • I used a usb turntable to import old vinyl records into iTunes. Then with the cloud and iTunes match I put them on another Mac.  The songs come up in the music list but they are greyed out.  How do I get them recognized.

    I used a usb turntable to import old vinyl records into iTunes. Then with the cloud and iTunes match I put them on another Mac.  The songs come up in the music list but they are greyed out.  How do I get them recognized.  The symbol states the songs were downloaded from iCloud.  I would like to get them to play so that I can make a playlist, and burn a CD.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • HT201272 I PURCHASED RINGTONES ON MY IPHONE 4S BEFORE I EVEN PLUGGED INTO ITUNES THEN I PLUGGED IT IN FOR THE FIRST TIME AND RINGTONES HAVE DISSAPEARED FROM PHONE HOW DO I GET THEM BACK?

    I PURCHASED RINGTONES ON MY IPHONE 4S BEFORE I EVEN PLUGGED INTO ITUNES THEN I PLUGGED IT IN FOR THE FIRST TIME AND RINGTONES HAVE DISSAPEARED FROM PHONE HOW DO I GET THEM BACK?

    Try restoring from the backup created at the beginning of the sync process:
    Without connecting your phone, open iTunes, go to Preferences, on the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically"
    Connect your phone, right-click on the name of your phone when it appears on the left sidebar in iTunes
    Select Restore from backup, choosing your most recent backup to restore from
    Disconnect your phone and confirm that your photos are back
    Go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and re-enable automatic syncing.

  • I just downloaded Yosemite and all my iPhotos have disappeared! I tried importing them from the photo library but it said there wasn't enough space on my hard drive which is rubbish, because they were there before. How do I get them back to iPhoto?

    I just downloaded Yosemite and all my iPhotos have disappeared! I tried importing them from the photo library but it said there wasn't enough space on my hard drive which is rubbish, because they were there before. How do I get them back to iPhoto?

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

    The same way the music was placed on the device.
    Connect the device to iTunes.
    Tell iTunes what to sync to the device and sync.

  • I had to reinstall a harddrive in a PowerBook G4 and lost all my apps, where can I get a new Apple Works?

    I had to reinstall a failed harddrive in a PowerBook G4 and lost all my apps.  Where can I get Apple Works?

    Allan:
    It did not work on my SL Mac Mini and I am sure you will have the same results.
    I need to find a quick and easy download PPC application for someone on this forum who is having problems in Snow Leopard and I want to rule out that it is PPC that is the problem.  I had suggested he download Appleworks for this purpose; ooooops!
    Can you think of a quick and dirty PPC app to download?
    Yes, he has Rosetta installed...
    I am almost positive that the problem is that his game was released in 2003 when OS X was 10.2.x and it just will NOT function in Snow Leopard without some patch or upgrade.
    I am getting my hands on a copy of this game tomorrow, so I will go down that path for him, too!

  • I have an iPhone 3G and when I downloaded the new operating system, a bunch of the apps on my phone disappeared.  How do I get them back on my phone's screen?

    Hi Everyone,
    When I downloaded the new iPhone iOS update, I lost most of the apps from my iphone screen.  How do I add them back to my iPhone display?  I plan to upgrade to the newer phone later this year.
    Thank you!

    If you are referring the the native apps that come with the phone they cant be deleted.  go to settings/general/reset then reset home screen layout.  If the apps are not the native apps sometimes they are just moved along a screen or so.  Swipe over the screen and see if you can find them

  • There used to be bullets on the iphone calendar...but they are no longer there.  Can I get them back?

    When I enter events onto my calendar...there are no longer bullet points under the date when I look at the monthly calendar.  Where did they go and can I get them back? 
    They were very helpful.

    i have had every generation of the iphone from the original and he stock quotes are always delayed by 20 minutes
    in the ios 6 manual  it says
    "Quotes maybe delayed by 20 minutes depending on the reporting service"
    can you tell where your quotes are coming from - maybe that has changed - mine are from Yahoo

  • HT201269 I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone, how do i get them back.  when I sync my phone, itunes says that they have been selected, but they don't show up on my phone

    I downloaded the iOS7, lost all the custom ring tones that I had on my phone.  the iTunes sync page says that they have all been selected but they don't show up in my phone? Help?

    I had the same problem and was able to fix it. Go to your iTunes and click on the Tones folder on the left under library. Some of my ring tones had an exclamation mark next to it and those were the ones that did not sync. You have to click on those and find it in your computer. Once the exclamation mark is gone, go to Tones section of your device in iTunes, make sure you select the tones you want synced, and click apply. I hope that helps you!

  • I have changed country (which was a painful process in its own right) and now can't find my purchases, and when I try to download them again (as per the instructions) they no longer are available - how do I get them back??

    Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005? I move countries for work regularly and now Iphones detect that you are not in the home country and make life very difficult, so you have to either register the new country and download all new songs again (a complete waste of time and energy) or not be able to update the Apps on the phone. Help - there must be an easier way!! (??) I took what I thought was the least painful option and changed country so I could get the apps on my phone, but lost my songs. This is pathetic for a the new Global world we live in...

    "Where do I find my hundreds of dollars of downloads I have done since 2005?"
    They will only be where you put them  If you are doing the very basics, then they will be on your computer and they will be in your backup copy of your computer.
    The itunes store is not global at all, never has been. You cannot redownload your content from another country.  You can only use the countrys itunes store for the country that you are physically located.

  • When downloading the new software none of my apps or music went back onto my phone how do i get it back onto my phone?

    last night when i downloaded the new ios5 software for my ipone 3gs.  when it was syncing after the software was done downloading, there was a error, and my apps or music were not transfered back onto my phone.  how do i get that stuff back on my phone without having anything deleted.

    If you are not showing any of your purchased music under that tab you were probably signed in on a different Apple ID account on the computer you synced with (is the the computer you normally sync with) and it has changed the User ID on your phone. Go to Settings > Store, log out whatever account it shows then log back in with your account.
