My iPod had a library of 5200 songs, and now it's empty. How did that happen???

I haven't harmed it, I haven't let anyone use it; the entire library as well as all my videos just vanished. Somehow, though, all my photos and game records are still there. The odd thing is it still says I have 114 GB left. I am so confused. HELP!

If you've wiped the device remotely then it is no longer associated.
You could also change the password for your Apple ID.

My ipod shuffle used to hold 230 songs and now it only hold 100 or so of the same songs, What is wrong?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

A recent download - which I automatically said OK to, has somehow made every image in my library into low res. when I try to use one as a screen saver, it is low res - when I try to print one, it is low res. was this some kind of setup to get me to buy a newer version of iphoto??????
Of course not - in fact it is not something done by iPhoto - it is most likely a user error
What exactly did you do? What did you download? there is nothing in iPhoto that ever changes the resolution of any photo - in fact you can not do it if you want in iPhoto - you have to export photos to a location outside of iPhoto to change the resolution
have you loaded your backup from before you did what ever you did? That is probably the fastest and easiest way to resolve the problem

My Ipod classic had over 8000 song an now it's empty .My itunes still has all my songs.Help

Hi Tom35hoboken,
So it sounds like your iPod had music on it that is now gone, and you want to put the music back on from your computer, is that correct? Let's see if we can get you back up and running.
To put your music back on the iPod you will need to sync it again with iTunes on your computer. The manual explains how to do this -
manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1195/en_US/iPod_classic_160GB_User_Guide. pdf
In particular see page 19 - Syncing music automatically and page 23 -Managing iPod classic manually.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Probably not enough memory on your device. Also, if most of the songs on your library are ripped from cds, you will not be able to transfer those from your device to your computer. Try checking the articles below:

My laptop had some work done on it and now my iTunes library is gone. My Nano 4 has all of my music on it and I want to sync what I have back into my iTune library. Anyone know how?

If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod onto your computer. And here is a guide about how to copy iPod music. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

Updated ipod, wiped out songs, and now I can't get them back on to to it

I updated my daughters ipod nano, not knowing that it would wipe out all her songs. Now we are trying to get them back on from her library and it only copies 1 song from her 79 and it does not give us the option to send them to it.
Please Help !!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
When the iPod is connected to the computer and in iTunes go to edit-->preferences. Click the iPod tab. Make sure it is set to automatically update all songs and playlists. Click OK.
If that doesn't work, try restoring the iPod...
Restore the iPod
Now try putting the songs on.
Also, are the songs that are not transferring purchased (from the iTunes Music Store)?

Hello,
Did you delete the library ?
If no, press the Option/alt key when you open iTunes and you should see a message and be able to choose a library.

I used to have Emoji on my iPod when I first bought it. I had to restore my iPod because it went into recovery mode and it deleted everything. How do I get Emoji back? Do I have to buy it off iTunes?

I've had itunes on my laptop for over a year; it seems to arbitrarily duplicate songs and now, instead of 800 songs, I have 3,500 with 2,700 being dupes. How do I get rid of the dupes?
