Laptop crashed, lost iTunes credit

My nieces laptop crashed and she lost the remainder of her iTunes gift card. When she logs in from another PC, it wont let her re enter the code, Also, any hopes of retrieving the purchased music as she did not back up.

The itunes credit is on her account, not on her computer.
She has access to the credit on her account from any computer.
Not backing up will eventually cause big problems.
You can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod ( if the songs are on the ipod). File>Transfer Purchases

  • HT4623 since my laptop crashed and itunes had to be re-installed my iphone 5 will no longer sync?

    since my laptop crashed and itunes had to be re-installed my iphone 5 will no longer sync with itunes. can anyone suggest anything?

    Does iTunes not recognize the phone, or does it recognize it but not sync? If it is the former see: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538.
    If it is the latter you may have some settings wrong. Tell us what you have tried.

  • Computer crashed - lost itunes - need help synching to new computer

    Hi,
    Well last night I was the lucky recipient of a virus...on my old Desktop computer. After battling it for 2.5 hours I had to give up, it basically doesn't work anymore. This was the computer that I've always had itunes on, and the one that I sync both my iPhone 3Gs and iPod with.
    Can someone please tell me:
    a)Once I install iTunes on my new laptop, will it give me issues when I try to resync my ipod? Luckily I have the music backed up on an external hard drive. But will it allow me to sync?
    b)how can I sync my iphone to the new computer/iTunes, without losing all my apps and pictures? Everything was backed up on my OLD computer and therefore lost.
    Please help - it totally ***** and I've never had to move stuff over before.

    Try a search as this is asked almost daily. Easier to find an older post than to retype all the details.

  • PC Crashed - Lost iTunes - Dumped PC - new iMac - but music is gone

    My PC had been a problem for a while, the last time it crashed, when it was restored all of my iTunes music was gone. I finally threw it out the window and purchased an iMac, which I love. But now it's time to get my music back. I can see all of my purchase history on-line at the iTunes store. But does anyone know how I go about dowloading / rebuilding them on my new machine?? I do not have all of the songs on 1 iPod, we have about 5 iPod's connected to iTunes from this one account.
    H E L P! please.
    Thanks.

    This site gives reviews of software to allow you to transfer from iPods to iTunes :

    Unfortunately, unless you backed up your downloaded music to another device (e.g. external HD) it is lost - it is not possible to re-download from the Store what you already purchased. Hopefully you can get as much as possible from the iPods.

  • PC crashed, lost iTunes, but retained my music files, now need to transfer to new PC.

    I have an old PC that recently crashed and I lost all applications.  I was able to get it operational so that I have access to the 90 GB of music stored on the hard drive.  However, iTunes is gone and when reinstalled I just got a new, blank version without my music.  So my iPod Classic is essentially an orphan.
    I purchased a new PC and can move the stored music, but am wondering a few things:
    I have a lot of live music that I spent considerable time formatting within iTunes, is there a way to save that formatting if I have the old iTunes folders?
    Without the ipod having an 'active' iTunes account, is there a way I can use it to tranfer anything?
    For the music that was uploaded to iTunes using CDs, is there a way to migrate that from the old PC using the iTunes Media/Music/Library folders?
    Thanks!

    It is a new pc - old one crashed and lost everything.
    Yes, I got that. My question was "are you using the same iTunes account to access music purchased from the Store?" I think your answer is "yes".

    iTunes is not designed to do that. However, this user tip from tt2 may help you recover your music from your iPod, although it's not a simple process: Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
    Ignore any references in the tip to iOS devices, the Classic does not use iOS. The tip has a list of software, including the TouchCopy referred to by tbirdvet that may assist you in recovering your music.

  • Old PC crashed,lost ITunes library, can I retrieve  iTunes library ? I have a new PC.

    I have about 1400 songs,some are on CD backup.

    Use your backup to put them back.  This is why it has always been very basic to always maintain a backup.

  • HT1349 i download latest i tunes 10.5 on my new windows PC as other laptop crashed.  itunes loads 20000 plus songs onto itunes when i have about 2000.  Whats the deal?

    I have my songs backed up on a portable hard drive but when I open the i tunes I just downloaded there are songs on i tunes that arent mine--over 18,000 of them.  Whats going on?

    Are they listed in a shared library from another computer on the network?
    Do they show as being on the same computer? 

  • My hard drive crashed and everything on my laptop was lost... is there anyway to transfer the music that I had put onto my phone into the itunes on my computer ?

    My hard drive crashed and everything on my laptop was lost... is there anyway to transfer the music that I had put onto my phone into the itunes on my computer ?

    I have a similar issue. My hard drive crashed, so I had a new one installed and I'm basically starting from scratch on my computer.  My iPhone has a lot of my stuff on it (photos and music in particular).  When I plugged into iTunes I did a "back up" of my phone to the computer....this transferred the photos in my camera roll, and music purchased through iTunes.
    So....I still have a ton of photos (saved in folders, not my camera roll), and music (older stuff not purchased through iTunes) that I want to get to my computer.  I am scared to "sync" my phone in iTunes for the first time.....if I do this, will it make my phone match my computer (effectively erasing the stuff on the phone?).  What I want is for my computer to match my phone (thus transferring the additional photos and music).  Is the third party software the only way??  Does it really work well/is it worth the money?  Thanks very much for the help.

  • My laptop crashed and i had to fully retore it and its delwted my itunes have i lost all my old phone backups

    my laptop crashed and i had to fully retore it and its delwted my itunes have i lost all my old phone backups

    I'm not sure what your question is. If it's about your iTunes downloads/library then copy them back from your backup of your library and add it into your iTunes library via File > Add To Library.
    Or you might be able to redownload some/all of your past purchases via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage - if you've changed countries since buying them, or if the rights-holder has removed them from the store, then you won't be able to redownload them.
    If you have non-iTunes purchased music on your phone and don't have a copy of it on your backup then there are some programs listed halfway down this page which should be able to copy them back : Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • Alright, so my ipod touch stopped working, but I can still connect it to itunes, but my friend gave me his old nano. I was wondering how I could get my more updated songs from my ipod touch onto the shuffle. My laptop crashed whish had all my new music

    Alright, so my ipod touch stopped working, but I can still connect it to itunes, but my friend gave me his old nano. I was wondering how I could get my more updated songs from my ipod touch onto th nano. My laptop crashed whitch had all my new music, and im afraid if I sync my Ipod touch to the desktop with all my old songs, ill lose all my newer ones which I dont want to happen because I want them on my nano. Im sorry for the confusing topic im just so lost.

    All you have to do is connect your new iPod to the computer that has the library for your old iPod.
    When iTunes comes up, click on your new iPod under Devices.
    At the top of the Summary Page click Music.
    Click Synch Music.
    Do the same thing for Photos, Apps, Movies and so on...
    Now just synch the iPod.
