If I uninstall Itunes & Reinstall Will All My Music,Videos,Etc. Erase Or Will it Still be In There??
?
Deleting the iTunes application, does not delete your content. Just don't delete the iTunes folder in Music. If you are using some ort of "cleaner" utility, be extremely careful.
If you are trying to update iTunes, you don't have to delete the old one.

I have set up a second iTunes user account on my PC, but when I create the new iTunes account it copies the music, videos etc from the original account and they seem to be linked, so that when I delete a song from one library it deletes from the other one.
On the online tutorials I've seen it shows that when you create a new iTunes library it should open as a blank account, but that isn't happening.
What am I doing wrong?If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar

Can I uninstall iTunes without losing all my music?
When trying to sync my iPod touch with my computer, I'm encountering an error in iTunes that tells me that the "Software for the iPhone is not installed..." and that I need to uninstall iTunes and then reinstall it.
That's all well and good, however both methods of backing up your music that are listed on Apple's support site have not worked for me. I can't get the CD's to burn and trying to copy the music over using the iPod itself was a total failure.
I've got iTunes on another computer and it recognizes the Touch just fine. It's the iTunes on the main computer with all the music that's giving me problems.
So, is there any way to uninstall, then reinstall, iTunes on my computer without losing the music?
Can I make a back up folder or something like that?i had the same problem but it was fix
try to open the command prompt as administrator an write 'netsh winsock reset', sometimes don't work but lets try it -
Hi! So I recently bought a new MacBook, but I've had an iPhone for years. I want to sync all of my music from my iPhone to my Mac's iTunes. Whenever I open iTunes and connect my phone though, it want to sync my iTunes library, instead of the other way around. This would erase all my music from my phone. Anyone know how to sync the other way? From iPhone to Mac?
You cannot synch the other way, with the exception of songs purchased on iTunes.
What you need to do is move the iTunes library from the computer to which you've been synching your phone and put it on your new MacBook. -
I want to update my iphone from 6.1.4 to ios7 using OTA but i'm not sure if my content will stay in the phone after the update especially the music cuz rest of it is backed up on icloud.
Updating is not suppose to wipe any media or apps.
It may happen because sometimes things just go wrong.
I would back everything up first. -
If i uninstall AMDS, iTunes and all Apple softwares, will all the music i currently have in iTunes delete.., or will it download itself back into the new iTunes?
Under normal circumstances, an uninstall/reinstall does not touch your content. That being said, it's still always a good idea to maintain a backup in case of disasters.

HT1923 if i uninstall itunes and re-install, will all my music still be there
if i uninttall itune and re-instll, will all my music still be there
Your library is preserved with the following repair process, but you ought to be routinely backing up anyway.
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.

Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

Your media should be safe, though you should backup routinely anyway.

Will all my music be deleted if I remove itunes from my computer?
I had problems with an Ipod shuffle, so I took it back. But before I did my itunes started acting up. Now some of my songs and playlists dissapeared, but they are all in my music folder. Now I can't burn any cds and I have double files of itunes and music. Will all my music delete if I remove itunes completely and reinstall it again? Please advise anyone.
I'm not sure if this will help you any, but i had my itunes deleted from my computer the other day. When i re-installed it (about 30 mins ago) and plugged in my i-pod my library loaded, no problems.
I suppose so long as your music is saved to the hard-drive deleting the program that plays it and re-installing it shouldnt be a problem. -

I subscibed to ITunes Match and all my music has disappeared from my Ipod touch and will only play through WiFi so I cannot play music in my car. How do I get it back please
You'll need to switch off iTunes Match on the device & sync the iPod with iTunes as hopefully you've kept all your music on your PC.

Hi,
If you do not have a back up or the tracks were not on your hard drive, you will have lost all your music except for itunes store purchases.
