Ituns doesn't have music anymore, scared to sync ipod and loose all music

I really could use some help, I have tried everything and don’t know what happened. I plugged my Nano iPod into my computer as I have always done since I received it as a gift for Christmas, to create a new playlist and sync it. When I plugged it into the computer all my music was gone on my iTunes, however it was still on my iPod. Since then, I have done all the upgrades, gone thru everything I can think of to find my music but can’t. I have purchased massive amounts of music and I’m afraid if I sync my iPod it will erase what I have and I have to start all over. I don’t know what happened to the music.
If anyone can help direct me on how to retrieve my “music” so I can move forward, it would be greatly appreciated. My dad and I have done everything we can think of but can not get any assistance and don’t know what else to do.
Thank you for your assistance.
Cordially

My ipod's touch screen broke, i was unable to input my pasword correctly and locked my ipod. I have a new laptop, and I don't want to restore my ipod and loose all my data. How can I unlock my ipod with out loosing my data?

I would apprectiate any tips, help comments, or ideas that will work as a solution for my problem.

You cannot.
You will have to restore your ipod, losing the information on it.

I bought a new computer, and iTunes doesn't have my music or anything on there. I want to get everything on my iPhone to my new computer/itunes. But no matter what i do, it won't let me. My desktop has everything, and I want all that on my laptop..

I bought a new computer, and downloaded iTunes, therefore the new itunes doesn't have my music or anything on there. I want to get everything on my iPhone to my new computer/itunes. But no matter what I do, it won't let me. My desktop has everything that my phone has on it, I just want it all moved to my laptop. Does that make sense? I could really use some help. I don't live with this desktop anymore so I need to be able to use my laptops itunes. Please help me. Thanks in advance!

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then seeRecover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

My Itunes doesn't have a music tab, only apps , podcasts , books and itunesu . Why is this ?

My Itunes has been giving me a lot of trouble. Firstly i havent been able to browse through or see any music in the itunes store , only apps,podcasts , books and itunesU. Secondly I received two itunes gift cards for my birthday and when i tried to reedeem them in the ap store it said invalid codes for both. I proceeded in trying to redeem the cards from my itunes on my computer and it said the country of the itunes account doesnt match the itunes card. I am Jamaican ,and i created my apple ID on my itouch in Jamaica , did that automatically give me a Jamaican account? How can I resolve these issues ?

Adrienne,
Only about a quarter of the iTunes country stores have music, so you are apparently looking at one that doesn't.
Go into the store, and click the little house icon to get to the home page, where you can click on "Change Country." Click on the country you are in, and enter your credit card information.
To make purchases, the address on the card must match the country of the store, and you must be physically in that country at the time of purchase.

ITunes doesn't play music after sleeping mode.

iTunes doesn't play music. I try to start any song by remote app in iPhone from sleeping mode of mac mini.
I can see all my music library, choose any artist and any albom.
But when I try to start the music nothing is happen.
The button Play/pause doesn't work and the play-bar is not moving.
This issue have appeared after upgrade to iTunes 11 and new remote app.
After reboot iTunes everything is ok, but in a sleep mode I have the same problem.
Please help!

okay. i solved the problem. After reading a few other posts on related topics, it appears that using either the Setup Assistant(instead of the Airport Admin program) or if you are using the new version called 'Airport Utility' to use the option to 'Assist Me'. After going through the setup in this way it worked!

Why this new version of iTunes doesn't have Album Art or It didn't show up?

Why this new version of iTunes doesn't have Album Art or It didn't show up?
Also, in my iPod Touch 4th, it erase all album art from my iPod, then i tried to put again a new Album Art, ...download again from the image sites and still ...it didn't show up.? What a waste!
I waste all my time to set all album art on my iPod, then it just gone. kindly pls fix this issue. hate this new version of iTunes, so complicated.
The first thing i saw after i install new version of iTunes, it showed only music files. I don't know where to look for the old version of Sidebar. I keep on trying to look for it where I can see or any sign off button just to show up this stupid SideBar. Also, why i couldn't find? The "Menu Bar" is also hide!
Until i found out in "View" tab. Then i saw the Show Sidebar. Question? why do you need to hide that Side Bar? For what?. it is so so so complicated specially to those people who can't relate for this. (Also the button (from previous iTunes) to show the Album Art, now it's gone. I check every Tab, but there's no way to see the Album Art.)
Another comment. I download also some of my songs to my iPod, I wasted my time to collect all of my favorite music files. Also some are came from CD's and friends. I had all that favorite music in my iPod. Then the version iOS 5.+ came then I updated my iPod, another options to save files (iCloud) but I think there are something that I MISS about updating my iPod. Then suddenly I checked my iPod... all music (with Album Arts) are gone. All Apps are Gone. Videos as well.
If you don't know how to use that iCloud (with only 5GB storage), you'll gonna miss/lost everything.
Then I start all over again, i still have my BACK UP, good to have that. Now it's all set until I update the latest iOS 6. And another version of iTunes.
Then I realized my computer getting slow. I uninstalled it. My laptop started to work fast again. Then I download again the iTunes. So now I know, it has the ability to slow my computer. Everytime I turn on my iTunes, it hang. (Not Responding). Solution... CTRL+ALT+DELETE. Then every second time to open the iTunes, and it works. (it means, to open iTunes, need twice)
Then suddenly my laptop is not working. All my files has been corrupted. My Hard drive doesn't work properly. Now I don't have any stupid BACK UPs. My music files usage is 18 GB, only contacts, documents, notes, or some other files that can only fit to your "iCloud" not my 18GB music files and other photos. Your solution is to BUY more storage. Another COST! Another wasting time to set everything then need to pay more?
If you let your unit (iPod,iPhone,iPad) to export music to PC, or any mini SDcard to use as storage, it won't happen.
There is another....
It has Bluetooth, right?
Use less! Doesn't work. There's no way to use it.
All I need is to install an application to use your bluetooth. (for same unit or Apple unit only). And pictures only can send via Bluetooth if you an application.
Even if you go to "Photos" check if there's a way to send pictures? there is no way to send via Bluetooth, even Photos, Songs.etc. It can't even share some other friends (even they have own iPad, iPod, iPhone or same products) who has a unit with Bluetooth.
And the last.. only one port. there's no way to watch videos through HDMI. No HDMI port, no SD or any card slot. Must to buy their products.
Very costly!
I know (like iPod) it's very friendly to use it, but you must spend more money first before it can use.

Yes, the old album art view is gone, bu you can see the album art for a song that's playing by clicking on the art image and it will open a bigger view.
Everything else in your post is a waste. I'm not going to spend time reading it. If - and I repeat if, you have a question on how to get the best out of the new look iTunes, post it. But don't spend your time in long rambling negative rants.

Ever since I updated the operating system, itune doesn't play music on iphone 4. if it plays, it plays only one song and gets stuck.

Ever since I updated the operating system, itune doesn't play music on iphone 4. If it plays, it plays only one song and gets stuck. I've tried to reconnect to the computer to see whethere there has been missing portion during the upgrade... but not really. does anyone have the same issue?

What does "gets stuck" mean?
It repeats?
It stops playing?
Have you tried the basics from the manual? Restart. Reset. Restore.

How come iTunes doesn't have a band I am looking for?

I am looking for a band that I LOVE, and iTunes doesn't have it or something. Does anyone know why iTunes doesn't offer all music?

I formatted by PC which erased the iTunes software as well. Now when i try to backup my iPad the new iTunes doesn't have access to my existing files. The option is to erase the current content of my iPad and replace it with existing files on my PC.

My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes. I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes. There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE. How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

I have an iPhone 5 and a PJ205 ipico Handheld LED Personal Projector for Apple iPhone 4. I bought the apple adapter but now need the app. Apple's App Store doesn't have it anymore, where can I get one?

Hi Chris.
It's asking you for my apple id password. not going to give that out, sorry.
However I did try this projector on my mother in laws iphone 4 and on my old iphone 3. ipico software isn't needed. plug and play any video through standard movie player or camera saved video.
I tried on my girls iphone 5 with the adapter. The ipico software and projector doesn't work on this phone.
Hope this helped you. Better to buy a used iphone 3 or 4 and use it for video storage.
I also found that the battery on these projectors are a joke (30-60mins max). I rigged a longer lasting battery on the outside and keep it plugged in while using. This doesn't charge the phone though so I replaced the battery in the old iphone 3 and now get at least a full length movie from it. Great in bed projected onto the ceiling.

HT2534 why my itunes doesn't have the none button on payment type?

why my itunes doesn't have the none button on payment type?

I haven't gotten anywhere, unfortunately.
Just to confirm we're having the same problem: I'm using a 4th generation iPod touch and I'm using the Nike+ iPod app to link to the Nike+ Sensor that goes in the insert in the shoe.
After I finish a workout, I click "Send to Nike+" which switches to Safari and loads nikeplus.com. I log in and... it doesn't seem to do anything else... Nothing shows up on nikeplus.com.
Has this pretty much been your experience as well?

My itunes doesn't have the options to authorized any computer to play with my Apple Id.

My itunes doesn't have the options to authorized any computer to play with my Apple Id. What should I do?

Hey danielefrommill valley,
Thanks for the question. Here is the information on how to authorize your computer to play iTunes Store purchases:
iTunes 11 for Windows: Authorize a computer to play iTunes Store purchases
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12511
Authorize a computer to play iTunes Store purchases: Choose Store > Authorize This Computer.
If you do not see the Store menu you can enable the menubar:
iTunes: Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5610
- To keep the iTunes menus active, change the setting by selecting the Menu icon in the upper-left, and then selecting Show Menu Bar. Alternatively, you can press Control-B.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Alternatives when iTunes doesn't have song?

Where can I go to buy mp3s for song tracks that iTunes doesn't have?
I don't want to join a download service or fill out a subscription--I like
the simplicity of iTunes and the fact that you just plunk down your 99 cents and the song is yours. Any other reputable sites that you go to in order to "fill in"
the gaps in your song collection? Thanks!

Bump. I was wondering the same thing.
Thanks.

Your MacBook is compatible with Mac OS X 10.6.8, which is the minimum required to install the current version of iTunes and sync devices running iOS 7. It doesn't need to be compatible with Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks.
