My computer crashed, cant play songs from iPhone in Itunes,getback app?

After my computer crashed i install new system and itunes. When i connected an iphone, i cant play songs on it. Somebody told me, when i start any sync i will lost all my songs.I would like to keep it or i will loose them.And as well how can i get back all my app what wasnt on my iphone installed?

hard drives will always crash, and you should ALWAYS keep a backup. it's surprising how many people still don't know this little fact about computers, and then they do nothing by cry when all of their data is gone.
let this be a lesson from here on out - ALWAYS KEEP A BACKUP OF YOUR DATA. the easiest way is to use an external hard drive.
there are apps that will allow you to get your music off of the iPhone, but they are not supported by apple.
and just because you think it's stupid does not mean it is done to annoy you. it was most likely done as an agreement with the music industry, but since no one here officially works at apple, we don't know the actual reasons.
also, you can "repurchase" the apps you have for free. you will be asked if you want to redownload the app. (i've done this.)
music (from what i understand) that was purchased on the iPhone but not yet synced can be synced without deleting it off of the iPhone, but this can only be done once (i think).

Play songs from iPhone in iTunes?

Hi all,
I've been trying to get my head around this, but I just can't get it to work. During music lessons, my teacher is able to play back songs on his iPod through his macbook (using iTunes, he selects the connected iPod and then browses to the song and is able to play it). I have tried to achieve the same thing, but for some reason all songs on my iPhone are greyed out and unclickable (thus unplayable).
Now I must admit that I have only recently purchased my MacBook, so the problem may be caused that the iPhone was not originally activated on this iTunes. I have however made sure that I authorized the Macbook to use my iTunes account. Also note that all songs currently on the iPhone are synched from my MacBook, afaik. I have also tried to perform a reset and completely reconfigure the iPhone, but this also did not fix the problem.
Does anyone have a clue how I could fix this problem? It would be great if I could use this function, cause that would mean I won't have to bring my huge external with me on every trip.
Cheers

i expect your teacher is using the _*disk mode*_ of the (regular) iPod as an external storage and keeps the tunes there.
your iPhone does not have that feature. click here for information.

Any way to transfer songs from iPhone TO iTunes on MacBook Pro?

I'm an idiot. I'm just going to say that up front. I feel that's fair for all who venture here.
I've had a terrible time with an update..and I wasn't able to get iTunes to acknowledge/recognize my iPhone or iPod once I ran and installed the current update. While trying to get my iPhone/iPod to be recognized, I did a lot of removing/uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes. During this mess.....I somehow DELETED MY ENTIRE iTunes LIBRARY!!! The whole thing. I have no idea how.
I thought I had been backing up....and thought I had Time Machine so I was safe. I was wrong. I won't even ask about Time Machine here....I've already disclosed I'm an idiot.
I am finally able to get iTunes to acknowledge my iPhone. Thank goodness. But, now......I have Songs and Playlists on my iPhone that aren't on iTunes.
Is there any way to transfer songs from iPhone TO iTunes?
Thanks!

Can we copy back songs from iPhone to iTunes library, once if deleted from iTunes library ?

can we copy back songs from iPhone to iTunes library, once if deleted from iTunes library ?

Have you not got a backup of your content ? iTunes will only copy back purchases that you made from Apple. For music from other sources you will need to find a program from another source which can copy them back from the phone - if you do a search on google you might find some. Or depending from where you got them from can you re-download them from those sites ?

Cannot play songs from iphone or ipad

I'm sorry if this is a repeated question. But suddenly about 95% of my songs on iphone 3gs have turned into grey color and it cannot be played, either from iphone itself or from itunes in laptop under iphone device. It also happened to my ipad. All albums are transferred but they appear to be grey. 5% of the songs are still black and can be played alright. I'm so frustrated!! I did try everything. Please..if anybody can help me. Thank you...
I'm not sure if this has anything to do with itunes 10 that I just downloaded or not

It's that way because that's the way Apple designed it.
I just merely wish to listen to them using itunes and my pc headphones while it charges the unit.
You can still connect headphones to the iPhone and listen while your PC changes the iPhone. Until Apple changes things, that's it.

Can't get some songs from iPhone to iTunes...?

So I tried "Transfer purchases from iPhone to iTunes" but it only did like 5 of the 100 I have on there that aren't already in the Library. I just don't know what else to do.

I am also having a problem with Iphone syncing all of my library. I have a toshiba laptop running vista and there are four family members all with their own profile using the same Itunes account to buy and download songs.
When I sync my Iphone it only copies 103 of my 159 songs. It won't even sync any of the songs I just purchased, even though all the songs I have were purchased with the same Itunes account. I have tried deleting my entire library and re-loading it, manually dragging songs to my iphone and using other family members profiles but nothing works. Can anybody help?

How to play songs from iPhone 3G in iTunes on the Computer

Hello
Maybe my question is some bit silly but I am also more than perplex at this moment. For storage reasons all my iTunes song files (no purchased songs from iTunes store, but all CD imported) are stored on a server volume.
Syncing my iPhone 3G together on my PowerBook with iTunes works well but ... when I am on travel I would like to play (only to play, not to transfer!) the synced songs from my iPhone on my connected PowerBook on iTunes in order to stream the music to an Apple Airport Express Adapter. I can see the songs greyed out on my iPhone but I can not play them.
Is there something wrong in my iTunes configuration or does I have missed an important "concept"? Do I really need to carry with me my iPhone together with an external HD drive where all songs files are stored on it? In this "application" case the iPod functionality of my iPhone 3G would be really useless. I can belief that.
Thanks for any advice, best regards
André

Hello
Thank you for your response. I would like to play the songs on my iPhone on the very same computer, account and iTunes Library I synced my iPhone with. Although there is no play access to the songs on my iPhone from iTunes. I thought I could take them with me and play the songs on my iPhone to the very same computer I synced it with. It Seems not to work as concept? So I think I have to buy a "stupid" docking station to make it complicate.
Thank you, André

Cant remove music from iphone in itunes?

I know there are similar questions but I cant find anyone having this problem. My iPhone 4, fully updated, has 94 songs on it, my computer and phone both agree on usage and space available. But under my iPhone, under music, it says i have 630 songs. but only those 94 in that list that are shown on my phone, play. And all 630 are in my library and all play. I want this all music on my phone to disappear. All 630 that show up on my iPhone music and the 94 on my iPhone, so that I can import new stuff and organize it.

Hello ibonner
It all depends on what type of media it is. If it is purchased content from the iTunes Store, then it will transfer. If it was something that was ripped from a cd and then copied to your iPhone, then it will not copy to iTunes. You can also download previous purchases as well.

Cannot play music from Iphone on iTunes

This is the setup:
I have a home PC that I use to sync / buy content on my Iphone. When I come to work, I have none of this data on the PC, but I want to play the content of my Iphone through my PC.
When I click on the iphone triangle and click music, the content is all grey and I cannot play (or double click to play).
How can I play this music on my Itunes?
Thanks!

I've had this problem for ages. You've inspired me to find a fix and I appear to have found one.
I manually sync my iphone at home (computer A) and I wanted to play songs on Computer B at work. The songs were all greyed out on Computer B.
Now, to get around this I have selected "Manually manage music and videos" from the sync options in iTunes.
I have no other options selected for sync options as I do actually want to manually manage music rather than sync it.
Now, when I click on "Music" from within itTunes --> iPhone it is no longer greyed and is playable through Computer A and Computer B.
Think that made sense, if not let me know

Hello Carpathianna,
No judgment here on the music you listen to, I have that song too in my library. If iTunes is telling you that the song is missing and you purchased it from the iTunes Store, then just delete it from your iTunes library and then download your song again. Check out the articles below for more information.

How can I get songs from iPhone into iTunes

okay so on my old computer (and on my iphone now) i had/have around 1000 songs in my itunes from various websites, around half of these are free downloads of independant artists and things like that, so not purchased in itunes. the other half i did purchase. my old computer broke, so i can't get to any of the non purchased songs, besides from my phone. i transferred all my purchases into my new computers itunes so around 450 of my songs i can access, but the rest are only on my phone. itunes keeps prompting me to erase and sync but that would get rid of all the non purchased songs on my phone so they would basically be lost forever, right? i know they want me to do that to protect against illegal downloads and things like that but this stuff isn't downloaded illegally! is there anything i can do to get my music on this computer or am i basically screwed? also i've tried downloading a few free tracks from various websites (again, legally)... they are showing up in my itunes library but every time i try to drag them onto my phone it doesn't work. my computer is authorized and i've tried everyhting else i can think of... can anyone help? i have windows 8 and my itunes and iOS are both updated fully, if that makes any difference. thanks!

The iphone//ipad/ipod is not a backup/storage device. The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The exception is itunes purchases.
There is no free, or Apple supported, way to extract any other music.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything back.
Iphone sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with the content of the new computer.

Cannot transfer new songs from iPhone to iTunes.

After switching to iCloud my iPhone automatically created a new Playlist and all new songs purchased on my iPhone were downloaded into that new Playlist. Now that entire Playlist is not syncing into my iTunes on my PC. I tried "Transfer Purchases", "sync", etc. What to do?

Have you installed the iCloud control panel on your computer (assuming that you have a Windows computer)?
This iCloud functionality may be missing from your pc/iTunes, no?
