Itunes back-up on pc gone, does back-up have a copy?

i have an ipod, i had allot of songs and clips that i have saved. I forgot to transfer all of these files to an external hard drive before having my pc sent in for repair work (installing a new hard drive). Am i out of luck (all of the songs that i had) or does the backup up of ipod on the pc and on itunes keep all of these songs? i am not sure, so i thought i'd ask, thnx ;-)

Backup file for what?
What version of iTunes?
What version of [Mac] OS X?

I synced my iphone to my computer and all my music on my itunes on the computer is gone does anyone know how to get it back?

They should be in the Photos app (help on syncing photos is here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236) - if they don't show then check that Settings > General > About > Photos isn't 0, and you could also try a reset to see if they show after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Have just bought my youngest an Ipod - set up new user account on the computer, created a new email account. However, cannot get this Ipod to connect to the Itunes store. What am I doing wrong? Have spent hours on this!!!!

Does anyone else have problems with iTunes 10.3.1 BETA?, Does anyone else have problems with iTunes 10.3.1 BETA?

Installed iTunes 10.3.1 on Mac and then all tunes vanished from my iPhone 4. I hooked the phone to the Mac and Synced them together and everything returned to iPhone. Next morning the problem was back. I had to delete iTunes and reinstall an older version from my Time Machine backup. It now appears to be working. Has anyone else had problems with this?

This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes for Mac forums.
BTW, iTunes 10.3.1 is not a beta release. Only the iTunes in the Cloud service is beta.

Itunes gets to 99% then stops, does any one have any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

When trying to download Itunes 10.5.1 the download reaches 99% then stops after a while it will say download has been interupted. I have tried using another browsers, disabling firewall and I have followed all the steps or uninstalling and reinstalling as suggested on the website. If anyone has any suggestions as to how I can fix this it would be much appriciated.
Many thanks

Disable your firewall and antivirus software. It can cause problems with the update process. Kaspersky is especially bad for this.

Does iPhoto '11 have the copy and paste function?

On my old MacBook the iPhoto allowed for the copying and pasting of adjustments, on my iPhoto '11 where the copy and paste option used to be there's nothing.

Terence -
I tried that, but it didn't work .. and I discovered why. The key was in the last word of your sugg's first line: "move." I don't want to MOVE the pic, I want to COPY it to another event, and following your suggs produced this box:
So, with your and the Old Toad's help, I now see I was pounding sand - can't do it! Unless we can get the iPhoto developer gurus to add that capability, we'll have to consider this case ... Closed.
Thanks, guys!

The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

Restore iphone 4 to install the ios 5 but something went wrong while doing back up and whenever i connect the phone to itunes theres an error and the phone turn off after 1min

hi guys i just downloaded the ios 5 and while it was doing back up something went wrong and everything were stopped and shows me a message as an error msg and now whenever i connect my iphone 4(32g) to itunes after 1min it goes off and the battery full and the same thing happend again and again can u help me guys plz i only see connect to itunes on the screen no options even

by reset option do you mean the DFU restore? worked for me, have you tried that?
if not - hold the lock and home button until the power down bar comes up. then hold the lock button for ten seconds - next continue to hold the lock button and press the home button for ten seconds - next release the lock button and hold the home button for 10 seconds. this should be done with the phone tethered. If done right and your itunes is configured as such, the phone will reload the drivers and start up itunes, and then prompt for a restore/update.

HT203175 I plugged my iPod into the computer and it says that my iPod is synced with another iTunes library, but it's not. So all my music and apps are gone. What can I do to remind the computer its the right iTunes library and get all my stuff back?

Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one. Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.

Itunes 10.6.3 - Just update to the new Itunes and the album artwork is not sticking anymore... I upload the artwork and when I change songs and go back the art is gone. Anyone with similar issue ?

I have this issue. Album artwork was totally fine before. After this update, it is all messed up and even got messed up when transferred to my iphone.
iTunes doesn't have the artwork anymore, but then iPhone has it but shows wrong artwork with wrong albums.
Please fix!

I upgraded to iTunes 10.5 and now I can't back up iTunes library to disc. In previous versions it was in file library backup to disc. In iTunes 10.5 that is gone!

Some of us have our enture itunes library backed up on CD/DVD - what a waste of time and effort as now presumably you can't use these discs to restore itunes on a new computer! WHY NOT APPLE?
Very unimpressed with itunes 10.5/ios5 - wifi tracking apps have been removed from the store (and won't function in ios5), it's impossible to sync photos (I have spent a whole day trying to sync my iphone 3GS with itines 10.5) to no avail and now, no CD backup facility.
I have never had problems with apple before - I was thinking of upgrading my whole system from PC to Mac but now I am doubtful - if this is typical of apple software, I will stay with windows!

I was billed for a renewal with eHarmony that does not work. Eharmony said itunes claims the charge didnt go through but I have already been billed. How do I get my money back or get my subscription working??

I was billed for a renewal with eHarmony via iTunes that does not work. Eharmony said itunes claims the charge didnt go through but I have already been billed it is on my bank statement. How do I get my money back or get my subscription working?? I have all transaction ID's and invoice numbers. Please help this has been very frustrating, thanks.

Yes, I reported the problem using that exact sequence immediately after discovering the problem with the app. When I submitted my complaint and request, Apple redirected me the website of the app manufacturer where I submitted the same complaint/request for refund. I have not heard back from either, and was still charged, so I can only assume that is not the correct way to "Report a Problem" even though Apple would have you believe otherwise.

I had to get my laptop cleaned and all my itunes music and movies are gone how do i get them back?

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.

HT201272 I made a purchase of an album on iTunes...somehow I deleted the whole album from my iMac and now when I go back to my purchases it does not give me the option to download the whole album again, instead it gives me the option of plaing them...plea

I made a purchase of an album on iTunes...somehow I deleted the whole album from my iMac and now when I go back to my purchases it does not give me the option to download the whole album again, instead it gives me the option of plaing them...please help!!

Where are you looking to download them from ? You might be able to redownload them via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your Mac's iTunes. If that album shows there but doesn't have the cloud symbol against it for redownloading then that implies that it's still in your iTunes library

Every time I turn the computer off or put it in sleep mode... when I come back my wallpaper is gone. I have to keep going to my pics and getting it back. Does anyone know why this keeps happening??

Are you choosing it from one of these folders (in my screenshot) or you can also put that picture into the correct folder. The path is:
HD > Library > Desktop Pictures
If you add it to the folder manually, please restart your computer.
And yes, letting it sleep is a good idea, or else the startup disk will spin and the screen may suffer from image persistence if you leave a window or image parked in the same spot too long, so the screensave is a good idea.
