I'm not sure what your question is. If it's about your iTunes downloads/library then copy them back from your backup of your library and add it into your iTunes library via File > Add To Library.
Or you might be able to redownload some/all of your past purchases via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage - if you've changed countries since buying them, or if the rights-holder has removed them from the store, then you won't be able to redownload them.
If you have non-iTunes purchased music on your phone and don't have a copy of it on your backup then there are some programs listed halfway down this page which should be able to copy them back : Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • My cloud is full, i havent updated in 41 weeks, and my ipod was stolen. have I lost all my music?

    My ipod touch 5 was stolen. I have changed all the passwords for any account that I had on it. The problem now is that I have been traveling without my computer for nearly a year. My cloud is full and I haven't backed anything up. Have I lost all my music purchases as well? Does Apple have a record of the songs I bought and will I be able to get them back?

    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • HT4623 since my laptop crashed and itunes had to be re-installed my iphone 5 will no longer sync?

    since my laptop crashed and itunes had to be re-installed my iphone 5 will no longer sync with itunes. can anyone suggest anything?

    Does iTunes not recognize the phone, or does it recognize it but not sync? If it is the former see: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538.
    If it is the latter you may have some settings wrong. Tell us what you have tried.

  • My Laptop crashed. I had a full backup on Carbonite so the iTunes folder is there and downloadable.  Is there any way just to import that and have iTunes on my new computer (Windows 7) recognize it?

    My Laptop crashed. I had a full backup on Carbonite so the iTunes folder is there and downloadable.  Is there any way just to import that and have iTunes on my new computer (Windows 7) recognize it?

    Nothing gets imported.  Simply restore the ENTIRE iTunes folder to the new/restored computer.
    Download and install iTunes from Apple's website.
    The first time iTunes is launched, assuming the ENTIRE iTunes folder is restored to the correct location, it will launch and be exactly as it was prior to the comptuer issues.  If for some reason this does not work, close iTunes, hold the SHIFT key while launching iTunes and a prompt will appear to choose or create a new iTunes library.  At this point simply point iTunes to the correct location for the existing iTunes library.

  • Help! My laptop crashed and I've lost all doc stored in icloud

    Help! My laptop crashed and had to be rebuilt so I lost all my photos, apps and music etc. I have some on my iPhone and others on my ipad but is there a way of reloading everything that I stored on icloud back onto my windows laptop?

    Hello Heal17
    There are a few ways to get your data back up from iCloud. You can download past purchases by following the steps in the first article to get all iTunes media downloaded. The next thing is to import all your photos, the second article that will assist with that process. To get photos from your Photo Stream, download the iCloud Control Panel to get the Photo Stream downloaded to your computer. The last article will assist with getting everything backed up from iCloud.

  • My old laptop crashed and i want to re-establish my iPhone with new laptop including saving all info on phone

    My old laptop crashed and I want to re-establish my iPhone with a new laptop. I had no chance for backing up just before the crash, so I need some other way of transfering ALL files, contacts, calendars, photos, etc simply. Can I transfer any data out of my old laptop HDD ? The iTunes on the new laptop doesn't like the idea of me using it for the old phone either !!

    If the hard drive in your old laptop still works you could put it in an external enclosure in order to copy your entire iTunes folder to your new laptop.  If that isn't possible, the first thing you would need to do is copy any music you didn't purchase from iTunes from your phone to your iTunes library on you new laptop using 3rd party software such as Touch Copy.  This can't be accomplished with iTunes (iTunes will only transfer purchased music from your phone).  You would also need to do the same thing with any Photo Library pictures on your phone that were synced from your old computer.  These can't be transfered with iTunes either.  Once you've done this, carefully follow the steps in wjosten's post here in order to sync your phone to your new laptop without losing data: https://discussions.apple.com/message/13356770#13356770.  (For Windows, substitue Outlook for Address Book/iCal in step 2.)

  • My old laptop crashed, and took my iTunes account with it.  I got a new laptop, and want to sync my iTouch to my new iTunes account.  It gives me an error message stating that I can't sync to multiple iTunes accounts, but I can't access my old one!  Help!

    My old laptop crashed, and took my iTunes account with it.  I got a new laptop, and want to sync my iTouch to iTunes.  It gives me an error message stating that I can't sync to multiple iTunes accounts, but I can't access my old one! 
    How can I get my new iTunes account to allow me to Sync my iTouch?  The only option it gives me is to "transfer purchases" from my iTouch to iTunes, but that is only about 25% of my iTunes library-most of it is CDs I have uploaded.  How can I Sync without losing all my music from my iTouch???
    Also, I have lectures and photos, etc. on my iTouch that I don't want to lose.
    I've tried a few of the iPod copy programs-the free ones and the ones you have to pay for, but I can't find one that will work for ALL my content on an iTouch.
    Right now, I can't get anything from my iTouch to iTunes, and I can't update my iTouch with my new iTunes purchases, so I'm stuck!  Help!

    Also-I tried to use my backup hard drive, but I wasn't able to drag/transfer/send/move any of my muic files onto my iTouch when the iTouch was connected to my computer.  I can't figure out why it won't let me do that. 
    The only thing I can see when I open my iTouch on my computer is my file with photos.  I can't see videos, music, or anything else.  What's going on?

  • HT1386 How many different computers can I sync my iPod with?  My laptop crashed and was completely wiped clean and this was the machine that my iPod synced with so I don't know if it will be counted as a "new" computer.

    How many different computers can I sync my iPod with?  My laptop crashed and was completely wiped clean and this was the machine that my iPod synced with so I don't know if it will be counted as a "new" computer when I sync my iPod.

    You can sync with onee at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content.
    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

  • My Toshiba laptop crashed and I was wondering if there is a way to reload it through itunes

    In September 2013 my laptop crashed and someone helped me recover my Itunes library (music, movies & TV). The laptop crashed again but no I think it's the motherboard and/or screen. I have a netbook that I'd like to be able to access everything again but I can't figure out how to do it.
    I have my iPod (old school) and it was recently backed up so it probably has everything on it. I'm just afraid to hook it up because I don't know if it will delete everything and just load what's on iTunes now. (one album)
    Would all of the information still be accessible?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everythihg back.
    If for some reason you have failed to do this, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
