Lost iTunes.  Can I get everything back?

Our computer did something funky on us today and we had to do a system recovery and with that went iTunes and all the downloads, ripped cds and endless amounts of time spent on iTunes. I have downloaded iTunes, so it is back on my computer, but it is empty with none of the songs we had before. Is there anyway to get all of that back? Can we somehow download from the iPod to iTunes? I am totally clueless we both have only had our iPods for about 6 months. Please help if you can. Thanks.

CopyPod will allow you to get everything off your iPod back to your PC to a directory of your choice. From there you can import all the songs back into a fresh install of iTunes.

You can use test the trial version for free, but to get all your music, you need to buy and register. It will be the best $20 you ever spent!
Good luck,

    HI guys
    I need help.
    I load the new iOS5 and I made an Backup and I load it too,but all my Photos are lost HOw can I get them Back ???
    thx for help !!!!!

    Which photos? If the missing photos were synced to the iPod then you have to get them from where you got them the first time. Synced photos are not in the backup that iTunes makes.

  • My iphone(16g)Lost,how can I get it back?

    Hello All,My iphone lost,how can I get it back?Now the person who get my iphone has powered off iphone.I can't get call my iphone.

    Probably not. If the person knew what they were doing then they probably restored the phone rendering find my phone useless. If it was sprint or verizon then have them block the phone from being activated. AT&T won't right now but they are going to start doing it soon.

    songs wiped from ipod and itunes, can i get them back?

    If they were imported from CDs, and you had no other backup of them on your system or another drive, you'll need to reimport them from CDs again.

    It's a Finder feature, related to Quick Look. You can hit the space bar in the file list to get a preview.
    If that doesn't work, you may have an issue witha  preference file or similar. I find rebuilding the launch databse works quite well resilving tis kind of thing, as does trashing Finder preferences

  • How can I get everything back on my iphone?!?!

    All my data has been erased and when I tried to back it up from my laptop it did not work!
    I had backed everything up on to my laptop up to date so it should have restored my phone
    but when I plugged the phone into my laptop it also erased things from my computer...
    HELP! How can I get my data back?

    If everything is on the laptop, either sync it back or restore the device from the most current backup in iTunes.

  • Can i get everything back after it got erased?

    everything got erased ad wanted to know if there was a way of getting it back without having to buy it all again

    If you synced to your iTunes on your computer, you should also have the apps and media data that used to be on your ipod in your iTunes library. Other data is also part of the backup you could use to restore from: iTunes: About iOS backups

  • Scared to update to Yosemite, If it doesn't work can you get everything back?

         I am currently on 10.6.8. I wanted to update to Yosemite but I am scared to because I do not want to lose all of my files. Is there anyway if it doesn't work and freezes that I can get all of my files back and 10.6.8 back? And if you can get them back, How? I am not that good with technology and I don't want to mess the computer up. Thanks for all of the help, Carl.

    You will need to do a good backup (I'd suggest getting the trial of carbon copy cloner, and cloning, not copying, your entire system to an external drive.)  If you simply upgrade over the top of your current system, you are likely to find a mass of incompatible apps, which will need upgrading.
    I'd suggest the best thing to do is the following
    a) do the backup (do it anyway, you dont want to lose your files for any reason, never mind upgrading the OS)
    b) check that your hardware is compatible with Yosemite (http://osxdaily.com/2014/06/03/os-x-yosemite-system-requirements-compatible-macs -list/ will tell you)
    c) IF its compatible and after you have made a clone or copy of your current system (even Time Machine would be a better option than nothing at all) you should do a CLEAN install of Yosemite.
    d) If the install goes OK and everything looks like its working the way it should, you could migrate your files and info from your clone or time machine.
    And cross your fingers.

  • I deleted iTunes Folders in my iTunes can I get them back?

    Hi All
    I noticed recently with the new iTunes 7.0 & onwards some of my songs were not working properly ending 30 seconds before the end etc.
    I backed up all my music & downloaded all my songs again but during this I deleted some of my old playlists to remake them & accidentally deleted the Official iTunes versions of My Top Rated, Top 25 Songs, & Recently Played. I tried making new folders but weren't the same I then tired re-installing it they didn't come back. If anyone has done this or knows how to get them back or how to create/make them again or do I have to uninstall it completely & do it from Scratch?
    Any help will be great fully received.
    From Richard Hobbs

    Thank you, Curt, But as I wrote - I know the keywords are embedded, and I can even see them in Bridge, if I use preview - but the moment I close it - they are gone again
    Export did not work either (after seeing the keywords when I did the preview - I tried exporting them - the file contained only the keywords that came with the installation.
    The good news is I solved it   (in a crooked way ) - I have downloaded and installed the trial version of LIGHTROOM 2 , imported all the pictures - and then Exported all the keywords.
    I do not think this is the way it should be done, BTW, but it worked for me.
    from now on, I will export my keywords periodically, until the trial version is due.....
    I hoped somone from ADOBE would look at the problem and give a solution - but my guess is it is a bug, and they do not have a better solution.

  • Purchased songs lost.  Can I get them back?

    Hi all,
    My hard disk crashed. My entire music library is gone. I didn't back up (bad move). Now I wonder if I can pick up some pieces.
    I purchased some songs at the iTunes Store. Can I get those songs back? And how?
    Thanks in advance to all generous souls.

    Another possible option is to run disk data recovery utilities on the old hard drive to try to recover the music song files, as they are just data files to the computer.
    You could install the drive internally to the PC on another drive cable, or externally via a USB or Firewire powered case, then run the disk recovery utilities. There are several free tools - one simple free tool is Recuva - Undelete, Unerase, File Recovery - at www.recuva.com. And several commercial products you could buy. O&O software is one such vendor for windows, at www.oo-software.com. Or Prosoft Engineering, at www.prosofteng.com has both windows and mac data recovery tools.
    And other similar software also out there.
    Most offer a trial scan mode to let you see if the data you want can be recovered - then you would buy the product to get the recovery mode enabled.
    Note the tools usually take hours to scan and recover.
    I would say that it would be worth investing at least a bit of time (and $) to investigate data recovery from the old drive. As long as it spins up, one of those recovery tools may be able to get your song, and other data back.
    Or, there are services that can recover data from crashed hard drives, but the service is very expensive (hundreds to thousands of dollars, depending on who, and how much data).

  • Lost session. can i get it back?

    Hi. I am using iChat 3.1.9 and OS 10.4.11. I closed the window of a chat session and did not realize I would lose the session forever. The session contained audio files I need to download. Can I get this session back? I have not quit iChat. Also, I did not have my Prefs set up to automatically save sessions. (Believe me, I do now.) Thanks.

    I am afraid that one is lost forever unless your Buddy kept a copy.
    However you can not re-download the links/files or pictures it contains.
    Clips and pics in Live chats need to be pulled to the Desktop to have them Available after the chat has finished.
    If the files were downloaded at the time they should be in the Downloads folder
