Lost all tunes?

I have dowloaded many songs and pics to my iPod video with no problems. This time...I disconnected from Windows XP and no folders!! The iPod did not freeze I restarted and still no folders. Have I lost everything or is it still in there and malfunctioning? The iPod is 'resting' now some suggestions and help please before the hammer!

Another way to import the music back from the ipod to the computer is first go to itunes then Edit --> Preference --> Advanced --> and check off copy music to itunes music folder when adding songs to library.
Now connect the ipod to the computer (if this a new computer and the ipod has never been connected to it, you'll get a box asking you to link the libraries, Say NO)
In itunes select file then 'add folder to library' and highlight the ipod in My Computer. Then select ok. The music should start updating into itunes.
When the update is complete, remember to go back into the preference window and uncheck 'copy music to itunes music folder when adding songs to library'

  • Ipod Nano lost all tunes

    My ipod nano lost all stored tunes whilst on the road and I have no idea why. Had to reload everything. What could I have done wrong? Or is there a glitch?

    1. susan your question does not pertain to this topic (1 album vs. all music)
    2. if you have a question post your own topic
    3. copy the album on again or look harder.

    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.

  • My computer crashed and I lost all my tunes. I have them on my ipod but need to know how to get them back onto itunes

    my computer crashed and I lost all but 2 albums in itunes. Is there a way to get into my old libruary? I have my tunes on my ipod.

    Any music purchased through the iTunes store can be downloaded again for free as long as you are signed in with the Apple ID you used for the original purchase.  Any other music you had in iTunes should be easily accessible in your system back up or from the CDs you ripped from originally.

  • Lost all my google desktop page and email access...again after using Trend Micro System Tuner

    I ran Trend Micro Titanium Maximum Security 2013 System Tuner and lost all the info, gadgets, etc. and even my email (Gmail) access. I was left with a black, blank page. I opened up Google Chrome and everything is still in place. This happened 3 days ago. So, yesterday I ran the system tuner again again as per my own comments from last year....had sorted it out by doing it. Still nothing. This morning.....I opened Firefox (21) and surprisingly had my main desktop page but still without my email. When I tried to open the email on it's own I still got nothing....the computer seemed to try to open it, but got "stuck" and the "loading" bar that goes from left to right never appeared. I could switch to the "slower" HTML version and the mail came up but prefer standard version. Checking on Google Chrome, everything is working just fine. I believe the Firefox Version 21 had only just been updated? Perhaps that is at the core. I really prefer Firefox but will have to continue with Google Chrome until this problem perhaps sorts itself out. Since it is loading properly on Google Chrome I don't want to set everything up again. Any suggestions?

  • HT204053 I've lost all the music on my computer in the main music section of my i tunes, i have it all on my phone but i want it back on my computer to. Every time i try to play a song it tells me it can't locate the song. I'm backed up to the cloud so ho

    ok, i lost all the music on my powerbook in i tunes, it tells me it can't locate any of the songs. I'm backed up to the cloud so how do i get my music back? I have it on my iphone what to do?

    Your iCloud backup doesn't contain your music.  It will restore music purchased from the iTunes store to your iOS device if you restore the backup by redownloading it from the iTunes store.  You can also redownload music purchased from the iTunes store to your iTunes library on your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.  This will not recover music from other sources.
    To transfer music from your phone to your computer, you will need to extract it using 3rd party software such as Touch Copy.

  • I had to reformat my laptop and lost all of my I tunes songs but have them still on my I pod can I transfer my sogns from the I pod to I tunes?

    I had to re-format my laptop and lost all of the songs in my I tunes but have them all still on my I pod can I transfer my sogns from the I pod to I tunes?

    CD's can only be played on PC's or Mac's (obviously). If they contained music in them,  they will have to be downloaded over again. What is best to do for further problems ike this is to put those songs on a big external hard drive at about 500GB for $60. They work very well and they are time saving. Putting in multiple CD's into one big hard drive will work well. Unless you have the songs on your computer with another music player like Windows Media Player for Windows XP - 7, you do not have to do all those CD downloads. If you have them on your computer do this: File>> Add File to iTunes the drag a big box around most of the music songs and they will be uploaded.
    Wait for tomarrow for further replies by me.
    Also, iTunes will only allow you to transfer PURCHASES to it. Follow this advice^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^....!!!!!!

    Stuff on your hard drive needs to be ADDed to your library if not already there... otherwise why not just manually click "sync" in the File menu?
