My ipod just lost all videos and music what happened

help please

- You can try a reset:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
But I do not think it will work.
- Why not just sync then again from your computer?
- If they are not on your computer, and they are iTunes' purchases thiswill work if you are in the USA with the latest iTunes:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- If they were taken by your camera, would they be in your iPod backup on your computer? If yes, then restore from backup. Just make sure that iTunes is set to NOT automatically sync when connected since when you connect, the iPod gets synced and that includes a backup and erases past backups.

Lost all photos and projects - What happened

I am running OS X 10.9 and have Aperture 2 - I have never had an issue and recently opened Aperture and it's completly empty.
Lost all my projects and photographs! Years worth...
Is it not compatible with my OS?
DId I maybe delete the aperture library file?
Please help me get everything back.
I apprecaite anyones input and walking me through the steps of locating my files.
Thanks in advance!

It sounds, like a new empty library has been created.
You could use Terminal's Find command find any other libraries you may have.
The terminal App is located in your Applications/Utility folder. Navigate to it in finder (or use launchpad and type 'ter' to find it). When you find it, lauch Terminal.app
This will give you a command line window where you can type various commands to examine your system.
Copy the following command and paste it into terminal, then press return to run it.
find . -iname "*.aplibrary" 2>/dev/null
If it finds any libraries is will show you the path to where each is located.
If it doesn't find anything, you may need to look to your backup.
I don't know if Aperture 2 works properly on Mavericks.

I am going to buy a Mac desktop and want to know how to transfer all my purchases and uploaded music from my PC. How can I do this to ensure all videos and music transfer over and not just purchases?

I am going to buy a Mac desktop and want to know how to transfer all my purchases and uploaded music from my PC. I originally started using iTunes on my PC so it has everything I have ever purchased or uploaded from my own collection of music.
How can I do this to ensure all videos and music transfer over and not just purchases? Do they do it at the Apple Store or at Best Buy? help!

Unfortunely, all movies and songs purchased in iTunes will be lost...you'll have to purchase them again! Any applications you've purchased, you can download again for free.
Music Rescue is a program you can use to transfer any and all data (music, movies, pictures..) from your iPod to your computer, and iTunes.

Upgraded phone and lost all apps and music

i upgraded via my pc to the 5.0 and now i have lost all of my apps and my extensive music library. does anyone know how i can restore my info?

If you didn't encrypt your backup and it still requires a password it sounds like your backup is corrupted.
Aren't your apps and music still in itunes? I don't understand why you can't just resync.

Lost all video and podcast on last connection to iTunes

During the last sync that was done on the iTouch 3G gb model, I received a message that the computer was not authorized. I think what caused this is a recent need to reload windows 7 (just reloaded all drivers not a fresh install)
When I chose to authorize the computer (there is really no other choice) I can still see all of the video files listed when viewing the iTouch directory in iTunes but these files don't actually exist. They are simply place holders of the files that once were there. I am asked if I want to try and locate them manually but not sure where iTunes would have moved them since iTunes it is unable to locate the files--yet they are still showing up in the iTouch listing as if they were there. Is there any way to restore these files or missing links to the iTunes libary or database?
I am really sick over this and wanted to asked if there is a procedure and how to go about attempting the recovery. I have not reinstalled iTunes. My apps were not lost, only the video, video podcast, audio books but strangely not the most of the songs.
I am sure this happened during the sync operation.
Please help
Thanks

I just lost the automate - picture package function with the last Photoshop CC update. I had it working after I updated from CS4. How do I recover this in Windows 7?

Lost all apps and music

Please help!!! I just traded my old iPhone 4s for an iPhone 5. I had (or at least I thought I had) backed up all my data onto my compter, so I would be able to open all of my old apps on my new iPhone. However, when i restored my backup, I didn't get any of my old apps or music. I had even put some of the apps on my iCloud, but either it itsn't working or I just don't know how to get my old apps from my iCloud to my new phone. I put some of the apps on iCloud, so I should be able to get them back, right? This isn't even a problem with having to pay for them again, it's losing the data I have an issue with. Any help would be very much appreciated!!

Sounds like you need to sync with iTunes. Make sure that music syncing and application syncing are set correctly in iTunes. Plug your iPod in, when it is recognized, click on your iPod and view the Summary tab. Set your syncing options. If you have it set to manually synch, you are going to have to initiate that off the Summary page.

Lost all photos, and music, apps from my phone can...

Hi newbie here, had my nokia 800 for a over 12 months now and has been working ok up till 3 days ago, wouldnt charge at all no power, just vibrated and never started up. anyway tried pressing a few keys after looking at a few forums trouble shooting guides and the phone seems to have been reset!
i had a lot of photos of my daughter being born which are very precious to me and want to try an retrieve them, i also cant seem to find them on Zune only the few recent ones i have taken since the phone came back from the dead, is there any way of getting them through zune?
my phone has played up again in the last 24 hours but it seems to charge ok after a while.
PLEASE help.
regards dan

If you has the auto upload function for pictures turned on you'll find the photos on Skydrive. While I can understand it must be feeling bad you lost the images please ensure you backup and sync pictures to your PC on a regular basis. Something can happen to your phone so the golden rule here is backup your personal files..

HELP! I changed my desktop photo and lost all photos and music!

I swear, all i did was put a pretty picture of lightening (that was in Apple's list of stock photos to choose from BTW!) on my desktop. It might as well have been real lightening because iPhoto doesn't have any of my pictures in it and iTunes doesn't have any of my music. When I open these folders, I can find the content there, but why did it disappear from the programs AND if I change my desktop back, will the pics/tunes come back?!?! I can live without the photos but the music and movies!!!! I have it all on my iPhone but now I am afraid to "sync" it to my computer.
Perhaps something easy like "import"?

Well, I ended up just dragging and dropping my music back into iTunes and it recopied them but all playlists are gone... oh well. As far as I can tell, all purchased music is there as well.
As far as the photos, I can see and open them in the pictures file (with the album titles and all) with Preview, but I tried to drag and drop those as well, but it was saying there was an error and it couldn't read them or something like that. I know, I should have written the error message down... rookie mistake. Just to test, I tried to upload a picture from the folder to a website, but when I went to browse for the picture it didn't recognize any of them.
I also repaired permissions (there were alot!) a couple of times until there were none. That didn't seem to work... I am so frustrated. They are all there on the hard drive but they wont go into iPhoto.
I think the worst part is... why did this happen and what to avoid so it won't happen again. I can't believe it is just because I changed the background on my desk top. After I did it, many of my regular sites like webmail didn't recognize me when I visited and I had to answer a bunch of my security questions again. Its as if they don't recognize this is the same computer just because it has a different screen saver!!! If all this really is because of that, it is a major design flaw. Why put the option to change if it is going to throw the whole system into a tailspin?
I am sure it is something I did wrong... just venting.
Anyway, how to get the photos imported back into iPhoto... any more ideas?

The staff on this forum aren't really here for support anyways, as noted in the Disclaimer. Sorry, but you'll just have to wait until someone else on the forum has a solution.

ITunes just deleted all my playlists! What happened?

My playlists were all there last night. Today they're gone! Can anyone shed some light here? I'm on a Air OS X 10.8.5

Have you accidentally hidden the Playlists?
In iTunes 11 is a hidden control directly besides the Headline "Playlists", that will be revealed when you hover the cursor there. Toggle that Show/Hide control Does that bring the playlists back?

Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.

I just purchased the new iPhone 4 but when I went to plug it in I found that I had lost all of my photos, videos and music. I thought I had backed up my old Iphone by plugging it into iTunes. Is there anyway to get my photos and such back?
