My itunes deleted

I bought the original scores of Frost/Nixon and the Da Vinci Code. Most of Frost/Nixon downloaded normally, but the last 3 songs, and pretty much all but the booklet and two songs of the davinci code got deleted. It once it downloaded, it the file for the last few of Frost/Nixon were "processing" for over an hour. My computer automatically restarted. I reloaded my itunes and checked for available downloads, and it just moved on to downloading the Da Vinci Code. then those 3 songs were processing for over an hour again, and i shut down my itunes, thinking that it would finally download if i reopened it. i paused the download before shutting it down. This happened with the rest of the songs from that album that i was trying to download, until I looked back at my purchases and none of the da vinci code was in the list except for the booklet and one song. I lost all of those songs, and i lost some songs from Frost/Nixon. Where did they go? how can I get them back?

  • Itunes deleted my 30 gigs of music and I didn't have it saved in itunes or on computer, is there any way of getting music back?

    Itunes deleted 30 gigs of music from my ipod. And I don't or didn't have it saved in Itunes or on my computer....is there any way of getting my music back? Alot of the music was not purchased from Itunes....mostly from cds I dont have anymore! PLEASE HELP!

    If the lost music is no longer on your iPod, on your PC, or in another backup somewhere, you are out of luck.  You can download most iTunes purchases again at no cost via iCloud.  See this article for more information and assistance.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    For non-iTunes purchased content, you'll need to redownload or rerip them from their original source.

  • A update to iTunes deleted all my playlists. How do i get them back

    A update to iTunes deleted all my playlists. How do i get them back? I have a windows 7 operating system.

    No, they aren't sold anymore. If you have a backup you could restore them from it.

  • Since ios6, itunes deleted all my songs on my ipod and on my computer!

    I have itunes set to organize my library for me. I found that for some reason after ios6 update, when I synced my ipod, all of the music got removed from it. However, at the time, I could still play it on the computer.
    When I looked into the itunes folder, I found that when I played a song on my computer, itunes would copy that song from its original location in the itunes>music> (artist name) folder to another folder it created in itunes>(artist name). In other words, it was moving everything out of the music subfolder into the general itunes folder. Everything that it moved would subsequently sync fine to the ipod.
    So, thinking I had the solution, I told itunes to consolidate my files in my library. Apprently bad idea. It did copy all of the files from within the music folder out into the general itunes folder, but somewhere in the copy, it must have lost the files, because now most of them are no longer on the computer either. When I go to play them in itunes now, there is an exclamation point. Itunes deleted my music and instead, I have folders with artists name, and a placeholder of sorts where the file is supposed to be with a little x over it (Ihave windows 7, btw). Nor are the files in their original folders in the music subfolder. I never touched any of this music manually. I was trusting itunes to do its thing with keeping my library organized and all.
    It did manage to copy about 1000 of them just fine, but all the rest of my music is gone from my computer! I did also restore the ipod, which seemed to sync fine after the restore, but again, because of the now missing music on my computer, obviously those files did not sync. Help. What happenned????

    Reset didn't work at first until I unchecked the 'sych only checked songs and videos' in iTunes, clicked apply and then rechecked it and clicked sync and it worked.
    Thanks.

  • ITunes deleted my songs from my HARD DRIVE!

    iTunes not only has deleted a few files from my library, but it ALSO deleted songs off my hard drive!
    I thought, "Well, maybe they just got moved around somehow." But, I thought about how much I go into my iTunes folder and then it dawned on me that I hadn't done that in about a month or so. The deleting thing started happening about a week ago. It's a few songs a day. Seriously. *?
    I feel like if I'm spending several thousand dollars on Apple's products (computers, accessories, and music), Apple needs to be a little more appreciative.
    If it's a bug in the new iTunes, then Apple needs to be sensitive to the fact that music is LOST permanently! It's frustrating to think about all the music that I've lost and PAID for. If I'm using the iTunes store and iTunes to buy/play music, then Apple needs to come out and apologize and reimburse for what was lost.
    I can understand why some of you are frustrated that iTunes is deleting songs from your library, but is there anyone else who is having music deleted from their hard drive?
    <Edited by Moderator>

    I'm a bit upset, too. It's only deleted one song, but why did that random song go, and when will it happen to 100s of them?
    I have the song on CD and can re-rip it, but that's not the point - it shouldn't go missing from the hard drive.
    I've aleady resigned myself to backing up the ITL library file on a regular basis in case it gets mysteriously corrupted.
    I'm not sure iTunes deleted this song, but it sure is suspicious.

  • HT201593 The newest version of iTunes deletes all of my iPod Touch 5th gen audible and visual media when I delete or add music or video to my library and add it to my device manually. Why?

    The newest version of iTunes deletes all of my iPod Touch 5th gen audible and visual media when I delete or add music or video to my library and add it to my device manually. Why? I guess the question speaks for itself. I have the latest version of iTunes and iOS 8.2 on my iPod Touch.

    If it's any consolation i've just had a similar thing happen. Went to add a playlist and it wiped 35 gig of music off my iPod touch 64g in a nanosecond. I've got the latest iTunes and osx but do not back up because i keep different styles of music (and loads of it) in separate libraries and devices which i don't want mixed together. All my stuff is burned from cd so it's not lost for good and i've got a hard drive with the "lost" mp3 music on it but even so it will take literally weeks to prune the tracks for my iPod to be the same again. Why do they make it so difficult to manage your music on these things. I have massive amounts of music on my computer so autofill is a disastrous unusable gimmick to me. The whole thing seems to be aimed at 9 year old kids with about 6 mp3's on their phone rather than serious music lovers (for example accessing EQ is a joke let alone the lack of a manual option). I'm a dj and use apple for that reason but to be honest i'm beginning to wonder why. I'm absolutely livid. The weird thing is that my mac still shows the titles of the missing tunes in the 'on my device' window but as my macbook storage display shows no increase i'm pretty sure it's all gone. Nightmare. I have no confidence in this device anymore and could barely use the previous osx 8.2 anyway. Why they have to change it every ten minutes is beyond me. As the old saying goes 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' but this format just gets more broken every time they update. An absolute disgrace. Why not just drag and drop or delete. No wonder the iPod is said to be a dying device, it's for music, it is not a phone. Not fit for purpose anymore. I can't be bothered to read a massive 'how to use' article every update. Good technology should be easier and more intuitive with each new version. I suppose i'll have to phone apple at my expense to find out what's going on, or maybe that's the whole idea. Very very very not happy.

  • How can I make iTunes delete songs again?

    When I fist used iTunes and I pressed "delete" it asked me if I wanted to physically delete the file.
    I said no and checked the box for never asking me again because I had a bad day.
    But now I would like that function back and I can't find how!
    I read I must delete the preferences, but either I don't know how or where they are (I tried to search for them in various Itunes folders, but nothing popped ;__;)
    I searched the faq too, but there is no answer to this.
    What I must do? Is there something I'm completly missing that would make this question (and me) silly? __)/

    Resetting the iTunes Preference Files:
    May need to make hidden files visible
    My Documents>Tools>Folder Options>View
    Check Show hidden files and folders
    -- Quit iTunes
    -- Delete C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes.pref and/or iTunesPrefs.xml
    -- Delete C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer Inc\iTunes.pref and/or iTunesPrefs.xml

  • How do I get my old songs back after iTunes deleted them?

    iTunes deleted the previous songs I had on my iPod when purchasing some new songs. Why the **** is this? Did I press the wrong button? I did everything it told me to do, and now i only have the songs I recently purchased. I freaking hate this.

  • ITunes deleting Outlook Contacts without Asking?

    I just now removed a contact from my iPhone that existed both in my iPhone and in my Microsoft Outlook program.
    Then I synced the phone. iTunes deleted that contact from my Outlook.
    Not a single warning or prompt.
    It just went into a 3rd party application and deleted the contact.
    What if I wanted to keep that contact in Outlook?
    What if I only wanted it removed from my phone?
    Please advise.

    What if I wanted to keep that contact in Outlook?
    What if I only wanted it removed from my phone?
    Please advise.
    Then don't sync your contacts. With bidirectional syncing, ANY change on one device will reflect on the other. You can't selectively sync some contacts and not others.
    Expanding on what deggie said, you have 242 posts here ALL of which complain about the features of the iPhone or the attempted help you got from others responding to you. 100% complaining. You're either a hard core compulsive toll or a masochist. Move on to another phone or another forum, but just move on...

  • TS1567 If i uninstall AMDS, iTunes and all Apple softwares, will all the music i currently have in itunes delete.., or will it download itself back into the new itunes?

    If i uninstall AMDS, iTunes and all Apple softwares, will all the music i currently have in iTunes delete.., or will it download itself back into the new iTunes?

    Under normal circumstances, an uninstall/reinstall does not touch your content. That being said, it's still always a good idea to maintain a backup in case of disasters.

  • ITunes deleted msvcr80.dll.  In order to reinstall msvcr80.dll,

    Need instructions on removing Apple's Internet Services folder.  Could not delete it even after deleting iCloud.  Error message reads: "The action can't be completed because the folder or a program in it is open in another program."  Background information:  An earlier version of iTunes deleted msvcr80.dll from my PC,  Apple instructions are to reinstall newest version of iTunes before reinstalling that .dll.  But must delete Internet Services before reinstallng iTunes and I'm unable to do that. 

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • While syncing movie iPod/iTunes deletes my music and Podcasts

    While syncing movie iPod/iTunes deletes my music and Podcasts. This is very frustrating becaucse I have ALL my sync settings set to Manual. What can I do to stop this? I'm about to throw my iPod against the wall!

    sorry you've just been dealt a blow from Apple trying to "help" its customers. you're correct: you cannot sync only music or movies. even if "manually sync" is selected, once you sync something like moves, the rest of your library gets deleted. it's completely backwards and non-intuitive.
