Music lost-help!

I bought a new computer. A friend syncronized my itunes songs. I could see them in the library. I now plugged my ipod in to charge it and now my library and my ipod is empty. Anyone got any ideas. I would appreciate your help.

OK you got a new PC, I take for granted when you say "Friend sync iTunes songs" you mean he synced, or moved the iTunes songs from the old PC to the new one. Now if iTunes was empty when you connected the iPod, that would of emptied your iPod too.
First look to make sure your music files are on your PC. If you know what folder you keep your songs in, like "My Music" folder, look there to make sure they was not deleted from the PC. If you don't know what folder you keep them in, just do a search from your start button.
If all your music is gone and you can not locate them on the PC, look in your recycle Bin.
Did you get any error messages when you opened iTunes or connected the iPod?

    See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    In brief; backup the device, recover what you can from it, download other purchases from the iTunes Store, restore the device, add content, keep a backup of your library in future.

    You will have to restore and thus erase the iPod. If you stuff is in a backup y can restore from backup. Otherwise it is lost.

  • I had to reload iTunes on my computer.  It "deleted" my music on my iPod.  It shows used storage but not music. HELP!!!!!

    I had to install iTunes on a new computer when my previous computer was lost.  I tried to load my library from my ipod and it had problems.  The recommendation was to find and fix errors which promptly deleted my music from my ipod.  It says no music but shows the used storage like the music is still there.  I've looked on my computer for previous libraries and temp files but am unable to recover my music.  HELP!!!!

    Restore the entire iTunes folder from the backup of the computer.

    Have you looked in the Music App on your iPhone? On the iPhone music is played by the Music App not iTunes.

  • Downloaded iBooks on my Macbook Pro but when I tried to sync it on my iPhone, this appeared: "Are you sure you want to sync books? All existing songs, movies and TV shows on the iPhone "My iPhone" will be removed". Love the iBooks as well as music. HELP!

    Downloaded iBooks on my Macbook Pro but when I tried to sync it on my iPhone, this appeared: "Are you sure you want to sync books? All existing songs, movies and TV shows on the iPhone “My iPhone” will be removed". Love the iBooks as well as music. I really don't want to loose my music. HELP!!!

    From the message you are receiving, it sounds like you either, 1) haven't synced your iPhone with that computer before, 2) are using two different iTunes accounts, or 3) both.  If you have purchased music or movies through your iPhone with a certain iTunes account and purchased books through iBooks on your MacBook through a different iTunes account then there is no having both on the phone. 
    Apple doesn't allow content from two different accounts on a device at the same time.  Also if two "libraries" have been created, one on the iPhone and one on the Macbook then syncing will erase data that is not associated with that particular library. 
    If you are using the same iTunes account for both, then you should be able to redownload any purchased items (music, books, etc.) from iCloud, assuming you have set that up.
    I hope this helps!

  • How to get back music lost while syncing to itunes?

    how to get back music lost while syncing to itunes?

    If the music you lost during the sync process is no longer on the iPod, in your iTunes library, or in a backup elsewhere, I'm afraid you are out of luck.
    You may be able to redownload any lost purchases via iCloud (pending you live in a country where iCloud has gone live).
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • IOS4 update = lost contacts, apps crash and cannot sync my music need help

    I like many had no problems with updating in the past. I even enjoyed the days off an update just to get to grips with new features. This experience has been abolished with the IOS4. I’ve had my 3G for just over a year (just). I came to update to the IOS4. The update took a long time but I got there in the end. However when iTunes sync came into play is where Im having problems my apps moved across no problems but then I got iTunes couldn’t back up my iPhone because the computer wouldn’t allow. I googled this and came to apples support guide on the matter. which was just delete the back up file in preferences (before I did this I did get a text from someone I know but his name wasn’t coming up just the number I feared then Id lost my contacts) so I did delete my back up. but then the next problem was iTunes couldn’t backup because of an unknown error (-20) (I’ve researched this unknown error and I can’t find anything on it) so I restored the software on iTunes and still I get this error
    so now Im left with a iPhone with no music, no contacts, no saved app data even apps crash on start. I read on softpedia (http://news.softpedia.com/news/Apple-Knew-iPhone-3G-Owners-Would-Run-Into-iOS-4- Upgrade-Problems-Customer-Claims-145332.shtml) that an apple employee suggested that apple knew this was going to be a problem and there will be a fix at a later date after the iphone4 and IOS4 rollout and either to wait for this, or buy an iphone 4. To simply buy an iPhone 4 is not an option I bought my phone outright on a payandgo and Im disgusted that an apple employee can even suggest that. now that I know Im not alone on this I want to know just what apple are going to do to fix this asap (for the money I paid I could off got a decent laptop with Skype) I expect and demand a resolution to my problem that isn’t going to cost me more time and money than it already has.

    just an update,
    after reading that some people who are contacting customer support were having some success in fix/getting the iphone replaced. I decided to do the same after going through some testing with the customer care assistant. he told me that I should uninstall itunes and other apple software and reinstall itunes.
    uninstall itunes, quicktime, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour, Apple Application Support in that order
    it didnt help me but I have now a referance number and I have to ring back tomorrow. the funny thing was that when the customer support guy was putting me on hold to find this resolution he told me that 'this is strange because we have not had this problem or any problems with our update on this phone'.........
    I corrected the man and told him 'well, with respect if you was to go on your support forum you will find page after page of people with similar problems not getting answered'
    and now im seeing people are having problems with the iphone4 lmfao

  • 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.
