Music deleted itself from iPod

This has happened twice now and I have no idea why. I have a 60GB ipod and when I used it last night eveything was fine and all the songs were there. This morning I turned it one and it seemed to take a while (may have showed an icon I wasn't really paying attention) and now all the songs are gone. The thing that baffles me is that the photos are still there. Last time it happened I just plugged it back into my laptop and the songs were restored but does anyone know why it is happening?
Thanks!

  • Music Deleted itself from Playlist, but not from M...

    Hi,
    I have a Nokia E72. In my Music Library I had 529 songs. Yesterday, when I opened Music Library, there were no Music Files. After I reopened it, Music Library had 180 songs. I switched the phone off and removed Memory Card, then Music Library had 330 songs. Now I have only 330 songs, but in my Memory Card are all the 529 songs. Even the names of songs that I changed recently, changed back as they was.
    What can I do to get back my songs in the Music Library?
    Please, I really need your help.
    I Expect Nothing, but I Always Hope for the Best.

    Nevermind! It has been sorted (somehow)....

  • Can i delete songs from ipod touch once i upload them to icloud, can i delete songs from ipod touch once i upload them to icloud

    once you upload songs,photos or documents fron ipod touch to icloud, can you delete them from ipod touch to free up memory from ipod touch and can you access them from icloud without downloading to ipod?

    You can't upload music to iCloud unless you are an iTunes Match subscriber, and if you are the songs are uploaded or matched from the iTunes library on your computer, not your device.  Photos are only uploaded to Photo Stream temporarily (30 days), for up to 1000 photos so it's not meant to be a permanent storage option.  The uploaded photos are also generally of lower quality than the originals on your device.  Also, only photos taken on your device after turning on Photo Stream are uploaded.  Finally, when you turn Photo Stream on, uploaded photos will be streamed back to your device in a Photo Stream album (so it actually uses some of your memory rather than saving it).  As for documents, only iWork documents are uploaded.
    If you really want to free up storage on your device consider more permanent cloud storage services such as DropBox (which will handle photos and all documents).

  • Delete songs from ipod touch

    how do you delete songs from ipod touch if can help me that would be great.

    planb77 is wrong. There is a way to delete songs, artists, albums, and playlists directly from your ipod touch. Simply click the song, artist, album, or playlist you want to delete but dont let go and slide your finger to your left (or right) and a red button will pop up to the right of the song, album, artist, or playlist title saying "Delete". Simply click it to delete it. To cancel and hide this button or option, simply slide right or left again or tap your finger anywhere on the screen away from the "delete" button.
    BTW I am not absolutely sure if this will work on all previous versions of the Ipod Touch. I am running iOS 5. iOS 5.0.1 to be excact.

  • How do I delete photos from iPod Touch?  Some photos do not have the trash basket option!

    How do I delete photos from iPod Touch?  Some photos do not have the trash basket option!
    When I first synced my iPod Touch with my laptop, it uploaded a lot of photos onto the iPod.  I now wish to delete those but it does not seem as a straight forward option!

    For photos synced to the iPod you have to unsync them:
    To delete photos from your device
    In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
    On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Click Apply.

  • Can't delete song from ipod touch that is not in my library

    Can't delete song from ipod touch that is not in my library

    Monty's solution will work if you have left the songs in one of your playlists. Another idea if that doesn't work is to check your iTunes list for that iPod. Check at the very bottom beneath the albums, artist,s and other content to add to your iPod, and be sure that you don't have individual songs selected to be added as well. If you do, eliminate them from that bottom list, and you should be fine.

  • How do i transfer the music and apps from ipod touch to iphone

    how do i transfer the music and apps from ipod touch to iphone

    If you sign in to your Apple ID then your apps will be visible by clicking the "purchased" tab at the bottom of the screen.
    Music you've purchased from Apple will appear automatically if you sign in to your account. Other music you'll need to download from your PC assuming you're not subscribed to iTunes Match.

  • Need help in deleting songs from iPod

    I'm trying to delete songs from iPod (not library), but song and podcast list is grayed out. I cannot select them to delete them. This seems like a very simple thing to do. I have the latest iTunes and iPod software loaded and have tried the online help, the 5 Rs and restart. I'm feeling really stupid here!!!!!

    Set the iPod to manage content manually; you should then be able to select and delete the items listed as being on the iPod.

  • Deleted items from Ipod Nano to make room for new. Emptied trash. Still getting error message when I try to copy items from ITunes to Ipod. What should I do now?

    Deleted items from Ipod Nano to make room for new. Emptied trash. Still getting error message when I try to copy items from ITunes to Ipod. What should I do now?

    If you delete songs (and other items) from the main iTunes library, yes, you need to empty the Trash because iTunes puts the song files into the Trash.  When deleting items from an iPod, the items are not being deleted from the main iTunes library, so nothing should end up in the Trash.
    Hopefully, you are not deleting items from your main iTunes library, just to sync those deletions from the iPod.  If you are, there is a better way.  You can post back if you want more info...

  • HT1386 Will apps and/or music be erased from iPod if synced to a computer other than orginally used?

    Will apps and or/music be erased from iPod if synced to a computer other than original one used?

    Yes. To avoid that:
    - Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a thrid-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up.
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    The computer will now be your syncing computer in the future. Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps and music.

  • My account keeps resetting and my music is deleting itself from my library. Help!

    Every time I log into my account it starts everything the way it had at the start of the last thing, I'll open up an application like Firefox and it'll ask if I want to open it like when you have just downloaded it from the internet. All my settings revert to the last point and it's becoming quite a hassle for me. If that wasn't enough, most of my music has disappeared from my iTunes library and I cannot locate it anywhere on my iMac. The other accounts on my computer do not have these problems. Any suggestions?

    Hi Darcy, it sounds like your home folder got renamed.
    Return to default desktop, apparent "loss" of home directory, (it can happen spontaneously too)...

    *itunes 7 and software 1.4.1 were both installed within the last 24 hours and the ipod mini is approx 2 years old
    i can add music and podcasts from my computer, but i cannot delete them from the ipod....i can delete items from specific playlists but not from the ipod itself.
    when my ipod is selected in itunes under devices, i get a main screen that has four options...
    summary
    music
    podcasts
    contacts
    when i select 'podcasts', it shows me the podcasts i subscribe to on the main screen, but i can't do anything ....they appear to be somewhat greyed out. the same is true with 'music' i can see the playlists on my ipod, but i can't manage them. however, i can delete anything from specific playlists on the left...but they remain on the ipod.
    how can i access the main middle screen to delete items from the ipod?
    before installing 7, if i selected my ipod in itunes, i could delete anything from the ipod itself...not just playlists.
    please help ASAP as i only have approx. 300 MB of space remaining.

    Click on the disclosure triangle in front of the iPod name.
    This will show you the contents of your iPod. Click on Music below the iPod name to see the songs on the iPod.
