Music lost after downloading straight to phone. Help get it back?

I downloaded quite a few songs (25 or so) around 3 months ago directly to my iPhone 4. They were playing fine. I Synked my phone around a month after and didnt notice anything wrong, but then a few weeks ago none of those particular songs were on my ipod. I checked my macbook itunes library and they werent there, and they were no where on my phone. They are ALL marked purchased in the iTunes store. Does anyone know how I can get those songs back?
Thanks for any help,
Liam.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Since you are using a Windows OS you may find a better response to your question by posting a topic in the Using iTunes for Windows Forum.
Good luck.

  • I upgraded to 10.5.1 and all my music disappeared after syncing. How do I get it back?

    i upgraded iTunes to 10.5.1 and all my music disappeared after syncing.  How do I get it back?

    I lost all my music, too - except for 3 pieces!? And I just upgraded, didn't choose sync'ing :-(((
    Sure would like to get back my music, videos and playlists!
    Most of it was my personal compositions/recordings, not bought at the iTunes store.

  • Non-Library Synced music lost after latest iTunes update. Help!

    I downloaded/update to the latest itunes which caused my phone to be reset to its factory settings. Although my contacts, photos and apps ect. were recovered, my music was not. I had a lot of music (2500+) on my phone which was however not synced to my itunes library as most of it was purchased from other sources. They were all normal MP3 files but now I don't know how to get them back! Surely iTunes couldnt have just wiped all of my music, could it? Please please please help me!

    If you have content that is on the iPhone but not on the computer then Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device has useful tips. If it has now gone from the iPhone too then you can still recover your iTunes purchases.
    What do you see if you drill down into the Mobile Applications and Music folders inside iTunes Media? Are you certain the content has been deleted?
    If you've not done too much with the drive since things went wrong, then an undelete tool might recover some of the lost media. FreeRecover looks promising... Select the drive, use the options to get file paths and check file integrity, then, presumably, you can restore anything that has been deleted from within the media folder that looks recoverable.
    While it is understandable that you blame Apple & iTunes for losing the media you could have just as easily turned on your computer to find the entire drive fried. You need to be prepared for such by backing up all your important data to at least one secondary independent location.

  • Music and videos on my ipod lost after synchronizing...can I get them back?

    First of all, I was looking on another site "answers" about how to copy music on my ipod touch with
    out erasing the current music which are on it...
    I did as instructed to copy them manually.....checked my ipod to see.....
    All the music I copied were there but the original videos, music, pictures have been deleted...info (like pictures videos from another ipod touch were put in place...
    I WANT THE ORIGINAL MUSIC AND VIDEOS ON THIS IPOD BACK BUT I CANT FIND THEM!!
    the music and videos on the ipod were from my cousin's laptop....she's in the Philippines....instead of asking her, can I find a way of getting them back
    or have they been erased?
    PLEASE NO MORE SILLY ANSWERS....

    They're not lost, they simply don't show because you settings ask it not to.
    Go to Settings --> Mail, Contacts, Calendar --> Calendar --> Sync --> All events

  • Window Focus Lost After Saving Page - Any Way To Get It Back With Keyboard?

    I've recently begun using Safari for Windows after having used Opera for years, and have run into a problem with window focus that I didn't have with Opera. Specifically, if you save a web page in Safari, you then find that the following functions are no longer available from the keyboard:
    1. Going back to a web page previous to the one that you just saved. Ctrl+[ does not function.
    2. Performing a search. Ctrl+F does not function.
    3. Scrolling to the bottom or top of the page. Ctrl+End and Ctrl+Home do not function. (For some reason, however, the PageUp and PageDown keys do still work in this situation.)
    Why is this, and more importantly, is there a quick and easy way that you can, using only the keyboard, regain the window focus so that these functions will work again? I'm currently having to click somewhere on the page I've just saved in order to regain the focus. This is a nuisance.
    Thanks for any advice.

    Thanks very much. Hitting 'Alt' button after saving the page does resolve the first (and most important) two of the three issues I listed above. FWIW, the Ctrl+End and Ctrl+Home functions only work in this post-save scenario (as I discovered by experimenting a few minutes ago) if you hit the 'Alt' button twice (or if you do something else, like perform a search and then use Ctrl+End/Home).
    By the way, before posting a few days ago, I had tried using the Alt+Tab method when I had two or more applications' windows open, and it didn't help. But, after reading your last post, I've found that if you use Alt+Tab when Safari is the only window open, then it does resolve the issue, although of course, as you've indicated, it's not actually necessary to hit the 'Tab' key.
    Thanks again!

    I updated my Iphone4 and had the m.calendar app with all of my daily temperatures saved, since the update after even after synching the iphone to itunes I have lost months of tracking I am devastated!! can anyone help get it back

    I don't understand this answer. What do you mean " your contacts should be in whatever program/service you have selected to sync."? The address book is created on the phone not in Itunes or any other program/service. When Itunes says backing up phone I have to assume it backs up everything on the phone. Most of what's on my phone does not come out of itunes. I download apps directly on the phone. When the software updates it does not bring those apps back. I have to go into the appstore and install them all over again. Itunes music library syncs with whatever is on the device your linked up to BUT the phone book just dissappears after you update the phone. There is no way to save it anywhere else.

    Reboot your router. You by chance dont have a netgear N300 WNR2000 router do you? I had one of those and would lose wifi on it constantly, Switched to a Cisco wifi router and it works much better.

    b) ~/Library/Caches/Acrobat/
    c) ~/Library/Caches/Acrobat/
    d) ~/Library/Preferences/Acrobat Distiller Prefs
    e) ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe/
    Here ~ represents your home directory. Empty your trash, Restart the machine and then start the Acrobat.
    Thanks!

  • After downloading the latest update I get "an unknown error occurred (-42110)

    After downloading the latest update I get "an unknown error occurred (-42110) does anyone have a clue? I can get to the store just fine. Everything seems to be playing fine. The error comes up everytime I load iTunes.

    Removing the SC Info folder as per the "Error 3001," "-42110," or "5103" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document seems to help most folks reporting the iTunes launch 42110s:

    install 6.5 before proceeding further. I coud not understand.
    Just what it says - install os 10.6.5 before proceeding further.  You can either do so through Software Update or use the Combo update from Apple's download site.
    You should repair permissions and restart your computer prior to updating and upgrading.
