'Music' function disappeared--help!

On the main menu in my ipod, the one where it's supposed to read Music, Photos, Video, Extras etc, the Music option has completely disappeared! It starts off with Photos. The scroll works fine, and I can still play my music through the shuffle function. I've tried reseting it and ran a diagnostic--didn't seem to help.
I don't really want to try and restore it because none of my music is backed up and I'll have to burn all of my CDs again...
Any ideas? Or will I have to suck it up and restore it?

On the iPod, go to SETTINGS > MAIN MENU, and set MUSIC to ON.
Then, go back to the actual Main Menu - it should appear there.
Cheers!

  • All music + pictures disappeared - HELP Lumia 920

    All my music and pictures from my Nokia Lumia 920 have disappeared.
    However, there are stubs as in cover photo's of albums when I go into the music app, some artist names but no music. And photo's almost as if someone's wiped them clean. The photos however are safe as they are on my skydrive.
    Plus when I try and add some music, it doesn't allow me to...
    So multiple questions...
    Is there a way to uninstall and re-install just the music app?
    Also I'm unable to take screenshots on the phone anymore :-( arggh

    We need to know more to be able to help, Lindsay.
    Did you update to iPhoto 9.6?
    And the photos vanished after you upgraded the iPhoto Library?
    Did iPhoto crash during the upgrade?
    Where is your iPhoto Library stored? Is it on your system drive in your Pictures folder or do you keep the iPhoto library on an external disk?
    If the iPhoto Library is on your system drive in your Pictures folder, select the iPhoto Library in the Finder, ctrl-click or right-click it and select "Show Package Contents" from the pop-up menu. A Finder window will open, showing you, what is there inside your iPhoto Library.
    Do you see folders "Masters" and "Old Masters"?  If there is a folder "Old Masters", look inside. Are there any photos inside?

  • Hi, just updated hubby's iPhone 4 and all of his music has disappeared from the iPhone and from the iTunes library! He does have music still stored on his iPod, but can't get it from the library on his iPod back to phone or itunes. technophobe help pls!

    and all of his music has disappeared from the iPhone and from the iTunes library! Luckily he does have music still stored on his iPod, but I can't get it from the library on his iPod back to the phone or to itunes.Please help, but technophobe so put it in simple english please!

    Sounds like the music you had on your phone was not the same music on his computer. The iPhone/iPod touch is not designed to be a storage device. When you sync with a computer that doesn't have your music, it deletes your music from your phone.
    Was this music you purchased from iTunes? if so, and you are in the US, tap on itunes app, tap updates, tap purchased and tap on the cloud icon to get each song back. If you're not int he us, get iOS5 update later this week and do the same.
    But you need to move your itunes library to his computer. Create a user account on his macbook pro for you. From your external drive backup, load your itunes library on it. Then sync as usual! (Don't tell me you don't have a backup for your computer!)

  • Help!! iTunes music just disappeared.

    Hey,
    I have a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard and I was running Safari and iTunes. My computer froze and was completely unresponsive so I forced it to shut down and restarted. When it started again Safari ran fine but it wasn't until i opened iTunes* an hour later I found all my music had disappeared.
    I've looked on forums and tried everything: I updated and restarted, I tried to repair disk permissions, I tried "Import a new playlist" to import the iTunes library and the .xml file but nothing works.
    The weird thing is there are a few songs in it and they're the first songs I put on my iTunes like 4 years ago.
    All of my music is in a folder iTunes Music but i don't want to have to reimport everything, it will take ages so is there something i haven't tried??????
    *When i opened it a message came up that said it had to make a new file or something iTunes Music (damaged)
    ** Also my computer has the same amount of free space as it did before the crash so i assume nothing has been completely wiped.

    Restore that backup you take regularly... Ah, OK.
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes. In the *Previous iTunes Libraries* folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename *iTunes Library* as *iTunes Library (OLD)* and then rename the restored file as *iTunes Library*. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.

  • Most of the music has disappeared from my iPhone!

    For no apparent reason about 80% of the music has disappeared from my iPhone, and I am traveling so most of those songs live on my home hard drive and are inaccessible to me. How and why does that happen, and how do I fix it? iPhone 5, iOS 8.0.2. I did absolutely nothing other than plug my phone in to charge it prior to this happening.

    I posted a similar issue.  My new iPhone 6 with iOS 8.0.2 only partially syncs my music library.  Even bought the 128GB to ensure no issues.  Apple Care could not help.

  • IC WebClient - Emp. Resp partner function disappearing

    Hi forum,
    We are implementing ICWC (CRM 5.0) and have configured ERMS rule modeler for dispatching service tickets to the responsible Org. unit. When the service ticket is created the partner functions viz., Sold-to party, Emp. Resp and Resp.Grp are visible and have values. But when the service ticket is classified and click on the "Escalate" button the partner function Emp. Resp disappears and the system asks for entering the Emp. Resp partner function. The partner det. proc is assigned to the tr. type used for service ticket.
    Please help to solve this error.
    Regards
    Shridhar

    Hi,
    I could solve the problem. The partner function disappearing is fine. When any agent accepting the ticket needs to click on the "reserve" button in his inbox and that particular agent will become the Emp. Resp.

  • My iPhone music has disappeared?

    Hey all. I'm new here and I apologize if this has been asked before.
    All of my music has disappeared off of my iPhone. It's all still there and taking up space, but I can't access it from my iPhone.
    If I go into the settings, and it still shows that the memory space is being taken up but it says I have 0 songs.
    I'm confused and concerned. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.

  • Music app disappeared after 7 upgrade

    When upgrading to 7, once the install was completed, my music app disappeared.  Any ideas or suggestions on how to get it back?  I see the Music app in the settings and when I search for it in spotlight, nothing appears exept some Brad Paisley songs and if I click on one of the songs I get the following error message.
    Unsupported URL
    This URL wasn't loaded:
    music://play/?pid=2109294357762107214
    Please help!
    Thanks all!

    Have you tried restarting the phone? Restoring it? If neither of those work I'd contact Apple.

  • Music randomly disappears during sync with iPhone

    When I sync my iPhone with my MacBook Pro, music randomly disappears from my iTunes library. The first time, 100 items "could not be found," then the last time 10 items "could not be found." Songs are still listed in the library, but they will not play and they have an exclamation point next to them. I have everything backed up on an external drive, but it's a pain to have to keep dragging songs back over. This problem began after my most recent OS X update. The items are very random and incude songs purchased from iTunes, songs from CDs I own and "digital book" downloads included with albums I purchased through iTunes. I would very much appreciate any help. I'm afraid to sync music anymore!

    Unfortunately, this does not fix my issue. The battery indicator still disappears sometimes (not always) when syncing and I always have the sidebar showing. BTW, this only happens with my 5S not with my wife's 5 or my iPad 3. It used to happen with the 5 that used to be mine until I got the 5S and gave the 5 to my wife. Because of this I think it has something to do with some app I have loaded (but since I have many apps it would be very hard to track down).

  • Music Library Disappears from AppleTV

    I transferred all of my CDs to an Apple TV two years 18 months ago. I don't listen to music regularly, sometimes weeks pass. I went to access my libray recently and my music had disappeared. I am using the system wirelessly and suspect that something is wrong there. I did reset factory settings, unlugged everything, and rebooted; to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
    Do you simply mean content you synced to the Apple tv is no longer synced and only available to stream, or do you mean it isn't available at all either synced or via streaming. Has anything else changed, have you changed any settings.

  • How do you delete songs that you purchased through iTunes but don't show up when you connect the iphone to iTunes they don't show up in music when you click on "On this phone"? I have my phone setup to manually manage music. Please help.

    How do you delete songs that you purchased through iTunes but don't show up when you connect the iphone to iTunes? They don't show up in the music section when you click on "On this phone". Side Note: I have my phone setup to manually manage music. Please help.

    Hi, Mrs.Frankie57. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you want to delete a song from your iOS device on iOS 7, tap Songs, swipe the song from right to left, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.

    I don't know why it stopped working but it happened a month or two ago but the option on this phone that's usually all the way to the left when you select your device but now its not and I don't know what caused it. ive already tried troubleshooting my problem but have found no help.

    Hello Salmomma,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to connect your iPhone to your Mac.  I recommend following the steps in the tutorial below for an issue like this:

    Additionally, you can delete music directly from the iPhone by swiping the song:

  • Search function in Help not working in any application

    The Search function is not working in any application's Help. Upon entering the terms I need help for I get a hang at "Searching..." but never any result. This problem started sometime in the last year or so. Prior to that the search function in Help worked fine. My network connectivity is excellent.
    I recently reinstalled OS X 10.5 but I'm sure the problem existed before that and persisted after the reinstall.
    The reinstall was due to upgrading to 10.7 and only then finding that I had lost needed functionality, but I don't think this has anything to do with the current problem. All other aspects of Help seem to be working fine
    I don't find any reference to this problem anywhere so I'm hoping someone can help with my Help(!) problem. Thanks in advance.

    Try running your Leopard install disk again, as well as the 10.5.8 combo updater. This might reinstall any 'missing bits'.
    You can do this without deleting the hard drive, just install straight over your existing system, but close all applications and external devices first.
    Or you could also do this via an Archive and Instal:

    This document explains how to correctly reinstall a prior version of Mac OS X in the event that other troubleshooting does not resolve an issue:
