Loosing music files after updating software to itunes 7.3.2

I recently updated my itunes software, when I went to reopen my itunes all my music was gone. Really! no files existed, can someone help me find where the files went?

At least one of these Apple info links should solve your problem. I would suggest reading all three before proceeding with a solution, in order to start with the most appropriate fix.

Covers of buyed music disappears after update software

A lot of covers of my buyed songs disappears after I updated iphone software to iSO 8 and I can recover it.
Can anybody help me?

I've had the same problem and i posted about it a few hours ago. What i did was just restore my iPhone which was pretty a pain in the ***. if that doesn't work, then try deleting purchases from your iPhone and download it again through you iPhone on the purchased section of iTunes.

After updating software on my Apple TV it is asking to connect to iTunes. Can't understand why?

After updating software on my Apple TV it is asking to connect to iTunes. Can't understand why?

You can try borrowing one. These cables are common for Android, Kindle etc. users.
Here are some steps and notes to try:
MANY people are reporting they've had to try multiple micro USB cables to find one that works. I got one that worked from a neighbor.
For clarification, this needs to be a "micro" USB, not a "mini" USB
Some people have also reported they've had to try the Restore process more than once.
1. Unplug Apple TV and move it to your computer running latest version of iTunes.
2. Quit iTunes if running.
3. Plug micro USB cable to the back of the Apple TV.
4. Power the Apple TV using the AC cable.
5. iTunes shoud either launch itself (a good indication that the micro USB cable you're using is compatible), or launch iTunes.
6. Click Restore. Software will download and install (big file).

How do I turn on iphone after trying to update software through itunes on computer?

Normally when updating while connected to your computer running iTunes the iPhone will go through the complete update process and then restart. It will vibrate when it is finished restarting.

Hi, it seems there is a bug in the Nokia Music Manager after updating the PC Suite to version 7.1.26.0. The german special characters (Umlaute) like ä, ö, ü, ß are no more correctly saved or displayed in the file names and tags.
Can you help?

Why don't you want to follow up with your previous thread?
It'll be confusing when you started multiple threads linking to the issue.
Sorry, I haven't posted here much so I'm not familiar with the protocols. I just thought it would be less confusing to make this a separate issue. I linked them to avoid duplicating info on my config & h/w

Music files are not opening in itunes.

Hi
My music files will not open in itunes and is not recognised in the library. I have the files in the 'My Music' file however when looking at the music file it say the file is locked? is there anyway I can get my itunes to recognise the music files?

I finally removed those audio and video files from iPhone, although it will be tough to add them back to iPhone, but at least I saved the phone spaces.
I used software something like iTools, delete everything under File System / User / iTunes Control, then restart phone, that simple, usage count, spaces used are all correct now.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in safe mode.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
for k in /Sy*/L*/Ex*/{,.?}*.kext; do test -f "$k/Contents/Info.plist" && /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print :CFBundleIdentifier" "$_" | egrep -qv "apple|Accusys|ArcMSR|ATTO|CalDigit|HighPoint|hp-fax|JMicron|print|SoftRAID|stex" && echo $k; done | open -f -a TextEdit
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Post the contents of that window, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook | open -f -a TextEdit
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
Repeat with this line:
ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 4
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit
Remember, Steps 1-4 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal.

After updating software, apple tv no longer accesses mob.tv and wsj

After updating software, my apple tv no longer accesses MLB.TV and the WSJ. It shows a spinning icon, sas accesing mlb., but never finishes.
This happened once before with an upgrade and the solution was to update using a USB wire. I took the apple tv to the store, and they did this (or they said they did), but the wired connection to MLB NO LONGER WORKS. It will work as a wi fi, but will not work with wire. Help! How can I get mlb back p and running for the 5 days of the year I want it most.

Is your Apple TV correctly connected to the network (check you don't have an IP address that staqrts with 169)
Have you checked homesharing is still set up properly, what about your computer firewall, is set to allow access for iTunes, you might try turning it off too.

I could not activate the phone after updating software to iOS7.

Dear Apple Support team.
Please help to investigate the problem as I could not activate the phone after updating software to iOS7. in the phone the erroe message is "Your iPhone could not be activated because the actiovation server cannot reached. Try connecting your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple of minutes.
I have try to activate both of way such by WiFi & Cellular activation and connecting with iTunes but still face the problem and could not completed activation the phone.
How do i activate the phone or have to wait for hour not couple min as you suggested.
your feedback quickly would be appreciated.
Thank You

There is nothing you can do. That is the Activation Lock that Apple has implemented tout down on theft of their iPhones.
Most likely the iPhone is stolen.
It is totally worthless to you.

HELP! can't reload music library after having to reload itunes.

Help! My Dell had to be serviced for 'slowness' problems. We backed up my huge song list to a external hard drive. I made the mistake of reloading itunes before I reloaded my library. Upon the first itunes download, it automatically searched my entire computer and found 3 (YES 3!)songs to go into my library (2 came free with the itunes download and one was in a documents file). When I tried to 'import' my song list, it would only import songs 1 by 1!!!!! Yikes! I have 200+ albums and hundreds of other individual songs. I can't spend 10 days re-importing each song.
I tried removing iTunes tonight. I thought if I re-downloaded the program AFTER my music files were loaded, that it would pick them up and add them back to the music library(like it did the first download). However, no such luck. It won't recognize my song list. Please help me re-load my music files to itunes. Greatly appreciated!
Thanks! Billy

Chris, I tried it a different way....to actually drag the music files and folders into the itunes (program screen), not just into it's music folders. Thanks because it's working.
