ITunes closed and I lost my video download!
Hi everyone!
I am new to using iTunes and I just bought the new scrubs episode. So iTunes was about half way done downloading when the program closed for no reason. When I opened iTunes again, my download vanished and I have no record that I purchased the episode.
What do I do now to get my Scrubs or my money back.
Thank you for your help!
Hi NicktheSlick,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
iTunes > Store > Check for Purchases?
Sorry, I'm on a Mac but I think it may be the same for Windows.

I downloaded itunes onto my new computer, i connected my iphone during the updating process itunes failed and i lost all my purchased music from my iphone and can no longer retrieve them. I would like to know how i can reinstate the lost music please.
When you are done with this issue, consider the computer back at the office may still
have access to your iTunes account, and it should be de-auhorized. You can do that
remotely, but be sure you carefully do not mess up your other computer iTunes libraries.
Good luck & happy computing! -
My itunes won't launch even after reinstalling. Looked in itunes folder and somehow lost itunes library? HELP!
The first thing I'd suggest is to get a good antispyware checker and give it a go at your system. Some recent spyware has been reported by other users to shut down iTunes or prevent it from launching. From user reports, Ewido seems to be the best at catching it. You can download a free version of Ewido here.
If that doesn't cure the problem, try deleting the iTunes preference files:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
and
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Data\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref
You might have to turn on "show hidden files" to find them. (Right click "my computer", select open, select Tools menu -> Folder Options. Select View tab, "show hidden files" radio button is in the center scrolling panel.) Delete them or if you want to be able to put them back if it doesn't help, drag them to some other location. This will force iTunes to run the setup assistant the next time you launch iTunes. Note that you'll have to go back and set any preferences you've changed from the default.
If that still doesn't work, try this:
Bugie: Perform a Thorough & Complete Uninstall and Reinstall of iTunes/QuickTime.
Hope this helps. -

I'm trying to use the apple TV. I've hooked it up and found that any video downloading takes forever. A 1 minute video I shot yesterday took 20 minutes to download and watch on the Apple TV. A movie trailer took 20 minutes. Whats wrong????
I am trying to figure it out, I have done everything
I had this around the end of Jan for about a week then I did some changes in my firewall and allwas good ( or so I thought) for 2 weeks and now its back again since Friday ( thats when I noticed it)
I have done the following
refreshed my connection
speedtest
unpluged it
check my pc firewall again and added anything to do with Apple and itunes to the exceptions list
check my router firewall and settings myself and with my cable comp
I also called my anti-virus/Firewall tech supp and could not find a thing
youtube netflix work fine but streaming a 2 min 33 sec trailer from itunes takes for ever and I see the white bar downloading
I can stream TV shows but like 20 min for it to be ready sometimes an hour
I am also seeing downloads from itunes store for a 22 min show take 3 hours
I have tried everything on my part. even downloaded a show from zune that was done fast as itunes used be, infact Thursday it was working fine (Itune store downloads)
something is up with the itune store because there is nothing more I can do
I even have a signal booster in my living room to make sure the family room and kitchen get a good signal
my apple tv is in the next room where the modem is and router
I also am having the same download issues on 2 computers and a ApTV2 -
I switched computers and have lost my previously downloaded and paid for music how do i get it back?
What do you mean it's lost? Did you actually put it on the new computer?
Simply installing iTunes and logging into your account does not cause content to magically appear. -

I have a video that I created for my daughter's first birthday. The hard drive on my computer crashed and I lost the video file. The only place I have it is on my iPod Classic. How can I transfer the video from my iPod to my new hard drive?
You are in luck, Refer to this recent post by tt2, on recovering media using 3rd Party Software.
He has made a comprehensive list, browse through them and decide which suits your requirements.

can anyone tell me how to restore my itunes library and playlists? After I downloaded mountain lion my library is missing and my devices can be synced to only one library ...the missing one
That .itl file actually is the library -- at least the critical part of it although the library is actually many files and folders.
Try starting iTunes and immediately hold down the option key. When it asks, guide it to the .itl file.
It's really hard to say without being able to poke around your computer. Upgrading should not delete the old library, but still it happens to the very, very few which is why we make backups before updating. If the old library file is gone then so are your playlists. You can always see if the following is of any use:

I just bought music on my iTunes account and the files did not download completely. The songs play for a minute or so then skips to next song
If you live in a Region that allows re-downloading Music... Delete the Song and re-download it...

MSVCR80.dll missing. Is this necessary iTunes file and is it safe to download?
MSVCR80.dll missing. Is this necessary iTunes file and is it safe to download?
Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

ITunes crashed and I lost my downloaded games
I upgraded to iTunes 7 on my iMac and downloaded a game.
I never got it to my ipod before the application crashed and now it no longer appears in my iTunes library.
What can I do?I have same problem. Bought a game, downloaded it to my mac - it showed up for about two seconds in Itunes and then Itunes crashed and the game disappeared.
I cannot sync my Itunes properly anymore. Songs and photos sync ok, but then it locks up!
Anyone know a fix?
