Library went from 5k songs to 30 after upgrade to iTunes7. Help.

Upgraded to iTunes 7, and my library lost all songs except those added since 7/23/06. I lost about 5,000 songs. They're all still in my iPod though. Any idea what happened?
video 60gb Windows XP Pro

i checked that but i only had a few
i think what actually happened was apple updated everything so that any music not purchased or already owned isnt able to be accessed
im not sure though...

I am Furious. I updated to 12.1 and went from 1400 songs to 28. I have tried everything I can from online including moving previous libray and renaming, uninstall/reinstall/repair, importing xml and nothing. Any suggestions?

After upgrading to maverick; help and other functions not working?

Sometimes just closing and reopening the Help window will clear up the problem. If it doesn't, log out or restart the computer and try again. Otherwise, you may need to delete the Help cache.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:

Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select

from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Move the selected folder to the Trash. Log out, log back in, and test. Help pages will be slow to load at first.
If that doesn't work, the problem may be caused by network conditions. It may go away by itself, though I can't say how long you should wait.
A persistent failure to load help data has been reported as an issue with satellite networks. Test on a different network, if possible. I've also seen at least one report that Photo Stream in iCloud can mysteriously interfere with Help.

I cannot configure yahoo small business after upgrading to Mavericks Help needed

Hi Guys,
it is as simple as that:
I cannot configure yahoo small business after upgrading to Mavericks Help needed
Thanks

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

When updated iTunes, library went from 4GB to 36GB!

The subject is fairly self explanatory.
I have 993 songs in my iTunes Music Library. I had an older version of iTunes (Sorry, not sure which. I don't think I've updated in a while...), and it said my total library size was about 4 GB (fairly accurate for 993 songs? 8GB iPod nanos are advertised as able to hold 2000 songs. 993 is about half, so should be half of 8GB). I just updated to the latest version of iTunes (7.2, I believe?). My library still contains 993 songs, but it now says that my library size is 36 GB! Did the update do something to my files, make them bigger? I only have a 20 GB iPod (should be able to hold this many songs EASILY), when I next add music to my iPod, am I going to run into some problems? Thanks for any help you have!

archivist08,
Get a new SIM card from AT&T, as long as the iPhone hasn't been blocked by AT&T from being reported as stolen. Restore the iPhone without the SIM card in, and then insert the new SIM card and activate.
Hope this helps,

Not booting from 10.4.8 volumes after upgrade from 10.4.7

I'm sorry to report that my aged G4 450 MHz AGP with 4 internal Hard disk drives no longer boots from any of the 2 volumes upgraded to Mac OS X 10.4.8 as soon as it was started from another volume!
All was working fine as long as 10.4.7 was installed on the 2 232 GB disks connected to the SIIG ATA133 controller. I could boot from any OS on any of the 4 disks, 5 partitions:
internal ATA66 bus:
18 GB disk, 2 partitions: 'IBM_18GB' with OS 9.2.2 and TechTool Pro's 'eDrive' with 10.4.7
71 GB disk, 1 partition 'IBM_71GB' with OS 9.2.2
PCI SIIG ATA133 controller:
232 GB disk, one partition 'I1232GB' with 10.4.7, now upgraded to 10.4.8 and no longer bootable
232 GB disk, one partition 'I2232GB' with 10.4.7, now upgraded to 10.4.8 and no longer bootable
Now I can only boot from the Mac OS 9.2.2 or the eDrive 10.4.7 partitions.
What I did so far: 'I2232GB' was my main OS X startup volume, 'I1232GB' contains a clone of it, plus additional folders like software base and backups.
After upgrading 'I2232GB' to Mac OS X 10.4.8 through Software Update and repairing permissions all was OK as long as the Mac was just shut down or re-started: it always booted up in Mac OS X 10.4.8 from 'I2232GB' without any problems.
The next day I booted from 'I1232GB' to do the same there.
Afterwards I could no longer boot in Mac OS X 10.4.8 from 'I2232GB' nor in in Mac OS X 10.4.8 from 'I1232GB': it just gets to the grey screen with the Apple logo, but the round circle underneath indicating some progress never appears. I left it there for hours: it just hangs.
With the Option key held at startup I could boot from the other partitions with Mac OS 9.2.2 or the eDrive with 10.4.7. None of their Startup Control Panels was able to get me back to 10.2.8!
So I booted from the TechTool Pro 4.5.1 DVD to Optimize both volumes, 'I1232GB' & 'I2232GB', always Files only.
Then I booted from the DiskWorrior 3.0.3 CD to rebuild the directories of both volumes, 'I1232GB' & 'I2232GB'.
Still I can not boot from either 'I1232GB' or 'I2232GB' in Mac OS X 10.2.8!
Downloaded the Mac OS X 10.2.8 Compo Update (for PPC) and installed it onto both 'I1232GB' & 'I2232GB' while booted from the eDrive which I keep on Mac OS X 10.4.7 - no luck either, still I can not boot from either 'I1232GB' or 'I2232GB' in Mac OS X 10.2.8!
Then I backed up the users folder from 'I2232GB' onto 'I1232GB', booted from Mac OS 9.2.2 and used Intech's Hard Disk Speedtools 3.6 to format 'I2232GB', afterwards initialized it with Alsoft's Plus Maximizer Extension for a Block Size of 512 Bytes.
Installed Mac OS X 10.4 from DVD, as well as iLive '06 and upgraded everything to the latest releases with Software Update. All was working fine with all the required reboots until another startup volume was chosen: afterwards again I can no longer boot back into Mac OS X 10.2.8 on the fresch installed 'I2232GB'!
Any help would be appreciated.

Apple G4 AGP Mac OS X (10.4.8) 4 internal hard disks, dual layer DVD-RW, 2GB RAM

I found several typos in above post, wherever it was 10.2.8 it should have read 10.4.8 - I'm very sorry for confusing you, this would not have made sense, but I found no way to edit the existing text therefore I modified the quote of it here.
I do not need Mac OS X 10.2.8 back, but it would be nice to boot back in Mac OS X 10.4.8 from another volume as the current one - which was working fine before with Mac OS X 10.4.7.
Many thanks,
Josef

Ideally there should not be any impact of OS change, but officially PSE5 is not supported on Win7.
What exactly happens ? Can you see the processes running in Task-manager?

Can't add/edit contact after upgrade to IOS5 - HELP!

After upgrading to ios 5, I can't add or edit the contact. The buttons are gone! How to get them back? I tried numerous restart also no use.

I was having issues with Calendar after updating to iOS 5.0.1 also. I finally was able to get Calendar functioning again by turning it OFF within Settings > iCloud. This action keeps all my calendars on my iPod. I also reverted to backing up my iPod Touch to my computer within iTunes, then restoring, and re-syncing after I made the changes. Now, I am able to add, edit, and delete events in my calendar just as I was able to do before updating to iOS 5.0.1. Restoring my iPod Touch only worked temporarily for me (before I change the settings), as the problem returned the very next time I attempted to add an event. This fix probably will not allow syncing with other Apple devices through iCloud, but it is less drastic than deleting my iCloud account.

Documents in library went from English to Java Script

The documents in my libraries was all in English,
This changed from English into Java Script, Java Script Run Errors, and left some documents in English.
I'd like my library/document file back in alphabetized English only

Hello anitaworkman,
I understand that your files have changed to java script.
Open up command prompt and run the following command SFC /scannow.
This will scan the system files and correct any errors that it can.
Here is a link to command prompt.
When you go to open command prompt, right click and run as administrator.
If it has not been to long since the problem started, you can run a system restore.
This will take the system back to when everything was working correctly without affecting your personal files.
Here is a link on how to do a restore.
Let me know how everything goes.

Lumia 925 went from amber to 8.0 after remote wipe...

Hi all,
I have had my lumia 925 for 1 day and it was running amber. I tested out the remote wipe function from windowsphone.com but it installed OS 8.0 on the device. And now the device also wont upgrade to amber. WHen I search for update it also takes some time to come back and say no update availble.
Have tried ressetingAny help appreciated

Some system apps got updated a few times after the amber update and their latest versions is not included in your phone ROM, so when you do a hard/factory reset, you lose those updates too. The store app will notify you about those updates, but not sooner than a few days. So it's better to update those manually.
As mentioned by paulheu, that's not a "pre-amber" state, amber is already installed but you do not have required app updates. To update those system apps, please follow the link that paulheu gave.
After a reset, as mentioned by WildSabre, you can visit Windows Phone Purchase History page to see and reinstall the apps that you have before the reset.
Also, you can use Lumia System Updater app to see which system apps requires an update.
The silence will fall

Songs stop playing after upgrading to Windows Vista

I upgraded to Windows Vista Business the released version.
After the upgrade I started iTunes 7.02 and tried to play a song. It required me to reauthorize my song. Unfortunately, I had 5 computers already authorized so I just went to the iTune Store to deauthorized all my computers and reauthorizes the upgraded Vista computer.
After reauthorization, I still cannot play my songs. ITunes pops up with the message that my songs needs authorization. I authorize the song and it says it is okay but will not play the song.
I can still buy stuff from the iTunes Store but cannot play them or sync them with my ipod.
Has the Apple testers ran into this problem?
This is a problem for Apple since Windows Media Player works for Zune. It's sad what Microsoft has done.
Windows Vista

I finally solved my problem and here is how I did it:
- De-authorized my computer
- Uninstall iTunes
- Re-install iTunes
Now make sure you have another user account with administrator privileges.
- Logged out of my user account
- Logged in using the built in Administrator account
- Launched iTunes from this account
- Launched Windows Explorer and double clicked on one of my purchased songs.
- Enter your password when the popup window for the password is shown.
My song started to play.
- Exited iTunes and logged out of that account.
- Logged back into my user account.
- Launched iTunes, and I was ok.

Library went from 5k songs to 30 after upgrade to iTunes7. Help.
