Is it possible to get music back off my iPhone?

I had someone work on my computer and he deleted all the music from it. Is there any way I can get my music off of my iPhone 3G? Also I have about 20gb of music on my ipod classic, can I get the music back to my computer?

iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod, iPad, and iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
You can do the same with your iPod and if you have disk mode enabled with your iPod and you are manually managing music, you can manually transfer the music from your iPod to your iTunes library.

  • Any way to get just music back off of a locked, broken ipod touch?

    My ipod screen was pretty messed up, and while trying to fix it, my boyfriend ended up breaking the screen and now the touch on the ipod doesn't work. I'm not too upset about that, as the ipod itself is pretty old and was going to be replaced anyway. However, I do want to get my music back off of it. The last backup of my music was on my computer back home that broke (My younger brother got the hard drive infected with a pretty bad virus) which means that all of my music that I got off of old CDs before donating them, and all the music saved on that computer are gone. I was in the process of writing down the music titles and artists in my ipod that weren't on my current computer so that I could reaplace them here where I am now, but I only got through a few letters before this happened and now I can't do anything with my ipod.
    The ipod is pawwcode protected as well, so I can't get into it normally. Is there still a way to do it? All I ever used this ipod for was really to listen to music, so that's all I want to get back out of it, I don't care about any of the other data as much. The ipod is so old it's way out of warranty as well, so I figured there was no real point in going to the apple store? any suggestions?
    Also, my ipod is formatted for windows.

    Okay, thank you.
    My biggest problem with that is that most of my music came from old CDs I had, and most of those have now been sold or donated since they were on my ipod, so technically they weren't iTunes purchases and are now currently unavailable to me.
    I have a friend who has repaired iPods before and he is going to try, but at this point thats about all I can try to do without reformatting or restoring the ipod.
    Thank you for helping me though.

  • HT4436 Since installing Ios7 280 music tunes out of a total of 360 will now only play when I'm within range of WiFi. How can I get them back on my Iphone 4s and scrap this stupid icloud that I did not want or ask for in the first place.

    Since installing Ios7   280 music tunes out of a total of 360 will now only play when I'm within range of WiFi. The remainder now appear with the stupid Icloud logo beside them. How can I get them back on my Iphone 4s and scrap this stupid icloud that I did not want or ask for in the first place. Why can't rotten apple ask if you want the dam icloud rather than just stealing everything without permission and then you can only have access to it through wifi.

    Wow, just posting and it seems that there is a solution that is working for me...
    What I've did is I turned off iTunes Match on my iPhone, then turned in on again. Now in my iTunes library on my mac I can get the duplicates to be matched or uploaded to iCloud with a right-click, add to iCloud. iTunes Match starts to check the songs and everything is done correctly. Pretty nice!

  • I just downloaded the new iOS 5.0 and did all of the backup prompted steps beforehand, but I can't figure out how to get all of my apps and music back on my iPhone. Where did they go and how can I put them back on my iPhone?

    Hi, Abril_Perez17.
    This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default.  Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.  See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled.  This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

    Have you checked to see if the media files are still on the computer? See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash.

  • How do I get the music back on my iPhone after manually deleting it from the device (to get space for photos/videos)?

    How do I get the music back on my iPhone after manually deleting it from the device (to get space for photos/videos)?  I can sync with iTunes but it doesn't copy these songs back, even though they still appear in my iTunes library.  I can click on the Music link  under 'On My Device' in iTunes and the missing songs all appear to still be on the device, but they are not.  I normally delete using iTunes and do not have this issue.  This time I was out and needed more space to shoot photos and videos so I removed a lot of music from my phone through the Music App.

    The songs I'm trying to reload on my phone are on my PC.  These we had loaded into iTunes.  I can remove them all from the library and then add them all back one by one I imagine.  The problem I'm having is that I removed them manually from the phone, they still appear in iTunes music library yet they won't sync.  I don't want to take the time to compare the phone to my library, remove from the library what's missing on the phone and then add them all back again.  64GB (mostly music) will take a while.

  • I deleted the playlists on my iPhone and when I now try to synchronize with my iTunes account to put the music back, nothing happens and I do not get the music back on my iPhone. Anyone who knows why that could be? Grateful for any suggestions!

    I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question.  Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing.  I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
    My playlists "ARE"  in my iphone 4s.  They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer. 
    When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes.  I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes:  Music, Movies, TV shows, books.  That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS"  but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone.  Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
    Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this.  I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer

  • After sorting my pictures into albums, I  deleted them from the camera roll, now they're all gone. Including the ones filed in the albums. Would it be possible to get them back ?

    after sorting my pictures into albums, I deleted them from the camera roll, includings the ones filed in the albums. Would it e possible to get them back ?

    A photo in the Camera Roll cannot be in an album unless the photo remains in the Camera Roll. Photos in an album or not duplicated. A photo in an album includes a pointer to the original photo stored in the Camera Roll. The Camera Roll is for temporary storage. Photos/videos can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
    The Camera Roll is included with your iPhone's backup. If your iPhone's backup has been updated to include all photos that were in the Camera Roll and has not been updated since the photos were deleted, you can try restoring your iPhone from your iPhone's backup. Do not update your iPhone's backup before doing so and decline the prompt to update your iPhone's backup as the first step after selecting Restore.

  • How do I GET THE BACK OFF THE G4?

    My grandaughter used the optical slot for a piggy bank.  I need to get the back off the G4 to get the coins out.  Anyone know what too you use?
    Susan

    Dear Susan,
    Many thanks for the clarification! We can work with that.
    The illustrated guides for taking apart G4 iBooks are here:
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iBook_G4
    They show four different models based on processor speed but I think getting to the optical drive is about the same for all of them. Still, select the guide that matches your processor speed (available by doing "About this Mac" from your Apple menu) and, when that guide comes up, click the "optical drive" section.
    Looks very complex so you may need third-party help. Apple considers the iBooks "vintage" and will no longer work on them in an Apple retail store. However, most Apple Authorized Service Providers (AASP) will work on older units subject to parts availability. Use this link to find one:
    https://locate.apple.com/
    I'm not sure about cost but a friend had a MacBook Pro with a failed slot-loading optical drive and an AASP quoted him about US$150 parts and labor--and that was several years ago.
    There is a separate forum here for the iBooks that may have more info on revivinig the drive, but I dont see a way to get around the complex takeapart shown in the guides I linked.
    iBook forums
    Best wishes for getting the iBook back to normal. They are nice computers. Another friend ran one well beyond any reasonable expected service life and it was still going when he upgraded to a newer Intel Mac.
    Please post back if you have any more questions!

  • After sync my music disappeared. Now I cannot get music back on phone!! I have one song on my ipod even though I synch with my playlists selected.

    After sync my music disappeared. Now I cannot get music back on phone.  I selected playlists and triedeven loading allmusic.I have one song on my phone and cannot load any music back on it. Is there a setting I may have selected that needs to be changed???

    Okay. I hope I can remeber all my steps exactly because I fixed my own problem...with absolutely no help from Apple. I opened itunes. I connected my ipod touch to my computer. On my itunes page that shows my songs in the upper right side under the search library box there is an itunes button and since I am connected there is an ipod button. DO NOT CLICK THE ARROW in the ipod button...just click in the mail part of the button. On mine it opened to a summary page that gave info on my ipod. The menu bar has Summary, Apps, Tones, Music and more. I clicked on the Music button. I chose to Sync the entire music library. That replaced what was on my ipod but what was on there was going to be put back on so I was okay with it. I then clicked the Sync button on the lower right side and it sync'd and all my songs are on my ipod again. I hope this might help someone else. Good luck.

  • Can I get music back after formating cpu?

    Can I get music back after formating cpu?

    If the music was RIP'd from CD, then the fastest way is to restore from your backup.
    Since it sounds like you did not have a backup, you will need to reRIP them from your CDs. Nothing else you can do.
    iTunes purchases you can redownload. Open iTunes, go to the store, click on Purchases on the right side under Quick links.
    Then tell the tech who formatted it for you without making a backup or making sure teat YOU made a backup that his rear end has a vacancy sign and your foot is looking for a place to rent.
    and you should make a backup right now of your computer and update teh backup after you RIP all the CDs.
    And make it a regualr practice, like weekly, depending on how much you want to lose.

    I need help on getting iTunes back on my iPhone

    Did you lose iTunes from your phone or from your computer? You posted in the iTunes for Windows forum, but you said "How do I get it back on my iPhone?"
    Assuming you are referring to your phone... the iTunes app cannot be deleted. Maybe it got restricted. Check under Settings > General > Restrictions.
