IPod Nano corrupted by updating the OS and all my music has been lost!!!!!!
I downloaded iTunes 7 today and connected my nano. It said I should update the OS so I downloaded and installed the Operating System update. After doing so the nano restarted itself and when it reconnected itself I received the following message. "itunes has detected an ipod that appears to be corrupted. You may need to restore this ipod before it can be used with itunes. You may also try disconnecting and reconnecting the ipod."
I tried reconnecting the iPod and I received the same error message.
I disconnected my iPod to see if any of my music was still on my iPod and it was all gone. This would not be so aggrevating if I had not just spent about $90 on music that is no longer on my computer because my computer had a nervous breakdown.
So I lost $90 worth of music because of this update! There is no phone number, email address, or anyway of getting touch with an Apple Support person that I can find. Anyone know?
I hope something is done to remedy this problem!
Still not resolved, even worse now. The nano was all messed up last time I tried to use it, now it won't turn on, nor will it connect to my computer. I'll be calling that number today.

Help! iTunes has completely disappeared off my iPhone 4s. Yes the Program, not just the app! All my music has just vanished! How do I get this back!!
(p.s. I do suspect a deletion has occurred courtesy of my 4 year old nephew, some other stuff has gone too, but beats me how he deleted a whole program!!!)Hi clorowan
I found the following information that may be helpful:

Alternatively, if your media was downloaded from the iTunes Store, you may be able to download it again free of charge:

What has happened and how do I get my music back? Obviously I have some of it on iTunes but others I don't have anymore... I can't understand how my music would suddenly disappear when my iPod has been working fine. My iTunes was set to manually manage music (and even if it hadn't been, then my iPod would have been synced to it anyway, so that can't explain why it's gone) and all my apps are there as usual. It's the version of the iPod touch before the camera was introduced. Please help!

That makes it difficult to provide any assistance. I hate to say this but you chose to manage the music yourself and there's no way that i/we can figure out what you did that caused the 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.

FIFA13. Since updating to IOS8 all previously saved iCloud data has been lost and I am unable to restore previously saved games. Also when saving new games they cannot be restored from iCloud. I have reinstalled ISO8 and FIFA13 but this does not fix the issue.
Same problem here. No saved files, saving is not possible and or doesn't work. iCloud is useless in this case.
I see it as an EA issue. The way they work is disabling certain feature to push users towards new versions of the game.
Money is everything, they don't care about their users and this problem will never be fixed, such a shame! -
I upgraded my Original Iphone to an Iphone 4, and am having issues syncing my Music,
It asked me, if I wanted to set up my phone as a NEW Iphone, or use the last sync. I figured, using the last sync would simply move everything over. NOT, so much. I am using Windows, Not Mac.
I uploaded the LATEST version of Itunes. And on occasion if I click the Music link button, and tap a bunch of things,.. It will take me to a page that says,.. Iphone or Shared Library. The only way I can get my music to show up, is via, tapping Shared Owner's Library. But it takes a zillion taps to get there, and 50% of the time doesn't show up at all. It says- repeatedly, Either, "You have no songs," etc. or when I tap, "Not on this device" it says, "all of your music has been downloaded to this device..." But HOW do I get to it?
On my OLD phone, all I had to do was tap the Music Note,... and my library showed up... That's all I want...
I put my music in the cloud, etc,.. I just thought that was a COPY. Am I needing some kind of CLOUD app on my phone? Or Can someone walk me thru this... I'd be eternally grateful. I'm ready to throw this thing out the window! HELLLPPP! PLEASE!!!
Thank You In Advance,
Shea....The reason, I included the annotation that I'd upgraded my Itunes, (On my Computer) is B/C in many forums - the very first question, *HELPERS* ask, is. "Do you have the latest version of Itunes downloaded on your computer." I wanted to knock out any obvious replies.
Now- "DO YOU have any idea,"... how your UNHELPFUL remarks, do absolutely nothing but hurt others that might not have the EXPERIENCE you have? How do you expect people to know things without asking questions? Whew! RUDE!!

ive got a laptop from a friend, she cleared everything off it. ive downloaded itunes and for some reason all her music has appeared in the library. How do i delete her music from the itunes libary so i can add my own music?
In iTunes, select the music you want to delete (⌘+a to select all) and hit Delete on your keyboard.
Also delete the music files in Finder. Also make sure you have your own Apple ID and iTunes account and logged in. -
Its a long story, but the short version is my computer hads been lost at the repair shop. I now have to download all my purchases, Apps and books down again onto my ipad. I have found my purchase (songs and TV Shows) but I cant find my apps I have all the receipts. What do I do now?
Before you do what Hunter suggested, you need to authorize the iTunes account on the new computer. To authorize, Store > Authorize This Computer. Use your current Apple ID and Password. Then connect your iPad and transfer your purchases.

I changed my email awhile back and have been using it fine until the other day i had to wipe my computer clean and when I downloaded the Itunes and pluged in my ipod I lost all my purchased items. where can i find them and get them back
They would only be where you put them.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If or some reason you failed to do the basics and maintain a backup, then you can redownload purchased music in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
You only get one download of movies. It is your responsibility to backup your purchases. -
No matter what I try i can not get itunes to recognize my ipod nano when I connect. I have tried multiple trouble shooting fixes on the site.

I have tried all that…I have tried multiple chargers and have not had any success! I think I have a lemon! Not too happy about all this either because I will probably have to pay for support since I have had the phone for more than 90 days
While Apple may request a Pay-Per-Incident, if it is determined that your device has a hardware issue, that PPI will bewailed after troubleshooting is completed. Or, you can request that they waive that if you've already done a lot of troubleshooting. The PPI is only for issues that a user could resolve on their own but want Apple to provide a walkthrough over the phone. You can get free support by going to an Apple Store instead, for example, as well. -
How can I display playlists on the side and all my music?
I want to list my playlists on the left and have my entire library in the main window to the right, but the new Itunes can't seem to do this. Or at least I can't figure it out. I want to be able to search and then drag songs into a playlist. Can't seem to do that now. Am I missing something? How else do I compile a playlist?
In iTunes 11 if you open a playlist you wish to add songs to there is an "Add To..." button at the to p right you can use to put the playlist on the right and your library on the left. If you want to go back to the old way click on the Veiw menu at the top and then "Show Sidebar" to get it fairly close to how iTunes 10 was.

Does the music play properly in iTunes? You may need to backup and then immediately restore the device.

ITunes & Music Files on iPod Nano Corrupted after Update to iTunes 7.0.1
I updated to latest version of iTunes. Now I can't load my music onto it, since iTunes won't recognize it. I have tried all recommended fixes by Support website. So, I looked at the files on my iPod. I can't access either the iTunes file or the Music file. Windows tells me they are corrupted. It also tells me to run "chkdsk".
Three questions:
Should I run chkdsk?
How do I run chkdsk?
If chkdsk fails, can I go into DOS and erase these two files on my iPod? (I think that I can remember how to do that!)Hi,
Hahahah, You are using the right word "seem" and in fact I am not a particularly bright guy on the discussions, there are plenty are smarter than me.
Make the long story short, let deal with your issue.
Firstly, make sure you login as administrator (not a guest) in XP, go and download the iTunes from here

How to login as administrator, start>control panel>user accounts>click you account to change>change my account type>tick computer administartor -
As the title says, this is a brand new iPod touch bought from a store, I plugged it in a commenced the "setting up" process through iTunes on may iMac. It got to the stage where it said allow this computer to access the device (or something along those lines), i clicked yes, and then a message came up "to allow access, please respond on your iPod touch. however the ipod screen is black, and pressing the buttons doesn't work. How can i fix this? or do I need to return it?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My IPhone 4 is experiencing an issue since the latest update. Itunes will not allow the library to sync my entire library. Itunes get stalled and the error message reads ITunes can't find the file for a certain song.
I had the same issue and was told it was because I was using Windows XP. Not sure if the same issue or not, but check that first.
