My iPhone (ios7.0.2) deleted all songs that i did not buy on iTunes and it won't sync anymore

i downloaded ios 7 a week ago and everything worked perfectly but now that i wanted to import an album that i bought as a cd i had to update my itunes and since then i can't sync my iphone anymore as well as today i could literally watch all the songs that i did not buy in itunes delete themselves and i can't find a way to get them on my phone again. what do i do?

Only if you are permitted to re-download it from the source. There's nothing we can suggest to help you. There is no undelete software, but there are a number of data recovery utilities like iPod Data Recovery Software | Lost / Deleted Data Recovery for iPod.

  • I had to re-download itunes for my computer, how do I keep the songs that I did not buy from itunes?

    I had redownload itunes because I had to get a new harddrive for my computer. Some of the songs from my ipod are not purchased from itunes. They are from cds and songs I have downloaded from the computer. How do I keep those from being erased when I sync my ipod onto itunes?

    Ideally you should restore your library from a recent backup - hard drives fail, usually without warning, so you should always maintain a backup of all data that you value.  Otherwise, see turingtest2's user tip on Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • My old macbook air crashed so i got a new hard drive. i successfully restored all the music i bought on itunes but there are a lot of other songs that i did not obtain through itunes that i cant figure out how to move from my phone to my computer.

    i would like to know how to solve this problem without erasing what is currently on my phone.

    You can transfer songs that you didn't buy from the iTunes store but it requires third party software such as Suneti. This is one of the best programs I know for the task and unfortunately I'm not aware of any freeware programs that transfer music from an iOS device to the computer.

  • Since my software update none of my music that I did not purchase through itunes work on my iphone? It sees the songs but none play.  How do I resolve this issue?

    Hello,
    Since I updated my iphone none of my music that I did not purchase through itunes no longer works on my iphone.  It is weird, the music is on the iphone but in gray and the iphone does not recognize it.  The only songs that I could play are my songs that I downloaded on my phone that were purchased through itunes. 
    Another error: When I purchase a new song on itunes it doesn't put the song in my purchased playlist like it used too.  In order for me to play that song I just purchased I have to go back to the itunes store and play it directly from the place I purchased it from which is super annoying.
    Frankly I am really disappointed with the constant errors from upgrades that should be "Up grades" Not "down grades".  Not sure why is going on but not seems to work the same anymore.  Does anyone have any idea what is wrong with my iphone music?
    Thank you,
    Dago

    You will probably lose the music.
    Why is it not on your computer?
    Have you failed to maintain a backup copy?

  • I downloaded 21 songs recently to iTunes and they won't sync with my ipod. 1st time this has happened. Any ideas to download these songs would be appreciated.

    I downloaded 21 songs recently to iTunes and they won't sync with my ipod. 1st time this has happened. Any ideas to download these songs would be appreciated.

    I had some time finally figuring why I could buy and download from the Itunes store, but could not load it on my IPOD. What finally worked was plugging my IPOD in to the computer, as I would when "syncing", and, after loading, it would show my device in the side bar. You have to go to VIEW in the top Tool Bar and click on SHOW SIDE BAR in the drop down menu. "SUMMARY' tab, on top, is what I clicked on to show an option of restoring my IPOD to the factory defaults. It erases everything on the IPOD, but gives an option of AUTOFILL afterwards, which it does from the computer. This is one solution of many you could try. Good luck.

  • I'm checking my iTunes account, and it shows that a bunch of apps have been added to my account that I did not buy, nor are they on my iPhone.  What can I do?

  • HT5312 after I entered the password of my iCloud ID, it prompted out asking me to check email from an emai address that I did not set for rescure and then I cannot login? now my iPhone has got all the cotacts lost.

    after I entered the password of my iCloud ID, it prompted out asking me to check email from an emai address that I did not set for rescure? and then I cannot login.

    Try going to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Deleting songs that I did not purchase.

  • How do I delete all "songs that can not be located" at one time?

    In trying to move my music files around from drive to drive in my computer, I messed up somehow (I don't know what I'm doing, exactly and am just making things up as I go along)....but long story short, I now have duplicates of most of the songs in my music library. With each set of duplicates, there is one music file that plays fine and is "located" to the new drive (where I was trying to move everything) AND a duplicate of that music file that "cannot be located". My ultimate goal is to just delete all the duplicate titles that can't be found. Is there a way to group them all together more easily that using the Ctrl key to hunt and peck then delete them in chunks? Help!! Thanks!

    Using a playlist to collect dead tracks.
    Create new regular playlist – Playlist1
    Select whole library and drag to Playlist1
    Create new Smart Playlist with the rule: Playlist is not Playlist1
    Live updating checked – after you run it, uncheck live updating or you may not be able to delete tracks.
    This playlist should contain all the dead tracks ready for deletion

    Or you can use a Robert Jacobson script - iTunesremovenotfound at:

    The playlist method doesn't work on large libraries - iTunes get indigestion.

  • How to quickly delete all songs that are no longer on my computer

    I just deleted a huge music folder, and I am wondering how itunes could find out all these no longer available tracks and delete them from itunes.

    Check the link below, there may be a script that does that.

  • I need a script that can delete duplicate songs within iTunesMedia but not shown on iTunes GUI

    I copied entire music in itunes library A and paste it in itunes library B. I subsequently experimented with import playlist and import .XML files of itunes library A to itunes library B. I notice songs in music folder have been duplicated i.e. the gigabyte of music folder greated than gigabyte shown on itunes GUI.
    Wow, I never knew importing .XML file (through import playlist) will import the songs, the metadata, the artwork and the entire playlist which i never created in the first place (I dont know what else had been imported).
    Anyway, the songs are not duplicated on the iTunes GUI. They are duplicated within iTunesMedia\Music... folders. Can someone provide me a Script to delete these approx. 100GB duplicates. The DeDuper Script I have can only delete duplicate songs displayed on iTunes GUI.
    Thanks for your help as usual.

    The script is only intended to work on things that iTunes would treat as "Exact Duplicates" and it only works on files that are connected to the iTunes library. Before starting all files in your media folders should be added to the iTunes library.
    In the context of the earlier thread, type 1 or logical duplicates are multiple entries to the same file and type 2 or physical duplicates are multiple copies of the same file. Type 2 dupes will have identical tag information (at least they will unless you edit one of them) and the same file size so will thus display as "Exact Duplicates" if present.
    The script avoids the more complex problem of trying to detect and selectively remove what I called type 3 duplicates, that is alternate recordings or rips of the same tune, principally because that is a much harder problem to automate, but also because "best track to keep" from a set of potential candiates will be a subjective matter.
    The current version of the DeDuper script is 1.0.1.2 dated 2nd December 2011. I've just downloaded and run it on a test library. I had 35 tracks that I first duplicated by copying the Music folder into Automatically Add to iTunes. I then renamed Music as Music1, selected each file in turn so that iTunes would "know" the files were missing, renamed the folder back to Music and then dragged & dropped the folder into the library. This created a library of 140 tracks, 35 originals, 35 physical dupes and 70 logical dupes . The script ran as designed and reduced the library back down to 35 tracks with the 35 physical dupes being sent to the recycle bin.

  • Random songs keep appearing in my library that i did not buy. why?

    random songs keep appearing in my library.  i have never heard of them, nor did i buy them.  they are not in my purchased folder though.  does anyone know why this is happening?  i am pretty sure they have been there since i set up my itunes account on this laptop.

    No, I have not deleted them, although I am about to.  Just wondering if anyone knew why they had appeared in the first place...? Does this happen sometimes? also they all happen to be in the "game" genre of songs. dont know if that means anything.

  • My iTunes says "This version of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes." If i re install itunes, i have to delete my existing one. Will that delete my audio that i did not purchase from the store?

    I know i will be able to search through my laptop's files to find my music but they are all scattered and it would probably take a few weeks to find it all.

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes.
    Restart the PC first.
    If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair".
    If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", and click "Change". Select "Repair" and click "Next" as per the following screenshot:
    Can you launch your iTunes now?
