My Music Gets Deleted When I Close Itunes

Ok I am having a horrible time with Itunes, I have a lot of songs and about a week ago I rented a movie, which has never worked for me. When I went to play the movie my computer froze and I had to turn it off. When I turned it back on all my music was gone, not from my computer just from Itunes. Then I played around with it and I found out the my music gets deleted anytime I turn off Itunes. I un installed and reinstalled three times still no luck. I tried a couple of other things but to no avail. So please help

when installing itunes, do you search your computer for mp3s(music)?
I strongly recommend using a Library path like C:\Music\ as your Itunes Library,
That path is easier to user than the normal one Itunes provides, because its short and also easy to find if you want to copy your music lets say to a mp3 player or a external hardrive.
That way you can just reinstall itunes, go to edit->options->advanced (i dont know the exact english words) and set your library to your Music folder.
Now you can simply add your folder to your library (make sure you uncheck "copy music to my itunes folder first, and afterwards recheck that option if you need it - I am unsure if Itunes would just double your library if u didnt).
Adding folders to your Library is in the Data menu.
If closing itunes now it should save the library just fine.

    Lets say I have a website called xyz, I would like to keep the cache from this site and have everything else deleted when I close the browser.

    The involved CSS code can be found in this file that you can open via the location bar.
    * chrome://global/skin/autocomplete.css
    Look for class .ac-emphasize-text and apply modified rules as you like.
    You need to add the !important flag to override rules.
    Add code to the <b>userChrome.css</b> file below the default @namespace line.

    The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the <b>chrome</b> folder in the Firefox profile folder.

    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    * Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
    * Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in this folder (the names are case sensitive)
    * Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
    * Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css. Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file

  • Library gets deleted after I close itunes

    Hello,
    For some reason my library gets deleted after closing itunes. When I re-open itunes i can watch my recycle bin get filled up with my library its an .xml file. If I hit restore it does nothing!!! This is getting very annoying, and the geniuses at itunes blame windows (couldn't tell me why) and the sony store (where I got my computer) blames itunes! Also I get a ton of .tmp file in my itunes folder while I use itunes, and they don't delete.

    Anyone!!!!

  • Effects get deleted when document closes

    I'm making an effect in illustrator, the end result looks like a dimensional bubble with an icon in the center. It's several things layered: from the bottom up I have a gray to white gradient, a solid color that multiplies over the gradient, an icon (solid white), a colored inner glow that multiplies over the whole thing, and then last but not least a couple small white highlights.
    I've expanded the appearance of the inner glow so that it scales correctly. There are 27 total dimensional bubble icons.
    Everything looks hunky-dory until I close the document. When I open it again some are screwed up. It looks like a display issue but when I investigate it's all janked up. They were all created (and re-created) the exact same way. Help! Why are some of them corrupting??

    I've tried saving as an ai, eps, and pdf, all have the same issue. Using Illustrator CS3.

  • Why does my music on my ipod touch 5th generation get deleted when I connect it to iTunes on my computer?

    Why does my music keep getting deleted on my ipod touch Everytime I connect it to iTunes on my computer? I've Uninstaller and reinstalled itunes. I've reset my ipod to factory setting and I keep getting this message " The ipod cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-54)" this also happens with my ipod 4th generation too. Everytime I go to put new music on it all my old music gets deleted :-/

    That is because you got a new computer. You can only sync all media from one syncing computer. You can sync from any computer to iPod using the manual method but that does not sync from iPod to computer.

  • How do I save photos that have been synced to my Ipad2, so that they do not get deleted when I sync with a different photo file on my computer.

    How do I save photos that have been synced to my Ipad2, so that they do not get deleted when I sync with a different photo foder on my computer (Pc win7).

    Place that first folder of photos that you synced to the iPad within the main folder of photos that you sync from and select them to sync again. You can place any number of subfolders within the main folder that you sync from and select those folders to sync. Just "tick"(select) the folders in the photos tab in iTunes.

  • Events in ical on my macbook get deleted when I sync w/my iphone5.

    Been having problems getting ical events to merge between iphone5 and macbook.  After some suggestions from the community, I discovered I have no icloud in ical system preferences, and events scheduled in ical on macbook gets deleted when syncing to my iphone5.  Getting frustrated.

    You probably have your iPhone set up to clear out old events.  My guess is that the events that are being deleted have already occurred.
    Check Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Sync, and make sure the events you want to keep are preserved.

I have to manually hold down the power button everytime I close my laptop to turn it off and then back on and once it is on it works perfectly, but I don't like holding the power button down for obvious reasons. Thank you.Go back to Windows 10, seems HP do not care about releasing up to date drivers for Windows 10, this is despite the problem you report also happening during BETA Testing of Windows 10 over TWELVE MONTHS AGO! It is only now HP are bothering to advise people not to upgrade, but yet they clearly won't reply in this topic, which is more or less about your problem from many different users! http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-Systems-and-Software/Windows-10-Laptop-won-t-go-into-sleep-mode/m-p/5181173#M304826

  • I want to configure Firefox to only accept cookies from a specific list of websites, but my "Allow Exceptions" list is deleted when Firefox closes.

    I want to configure Firefox to only accept cookies from a specific list of websites, but my "Allow Exceptions" list is deleted when Firefox closes. (Firefox 5.0)

    @dmcritchie:
    ''How do you expect to keep cookies for certain sites, if you wipe out all of your cookies when the session ends or you clear the same history through the Tools menu''
    If you mean from session-to-session, I don't expect it to keep cookies. That's the whole point. Every time Firefox is opened, I want it to write a new cookie, and keep that cookie until it closes and no longer than that. (Perhaps I should clarify: I don't mean session in the networking sense but rather in the period of time when one starts using Firefox until Firefox closes.) The behavior I want is for it to be able to write cookies when open, but only for specific sites, and then forget about them on close.
    I should also mention that your responses are worthless to me because you don't explain anything. For instance, the quote above is ''not'' obvious from your reply of "Make sure you are not clearing cookies". You need to explain this; what is obvious in a reading for you is not obvious for everyone.
    Furthermore, how is "Site Preferences" related to "everything on the right-side"? (Not to mention that it's unclear what you mean by "right-side.")

  • When I close itunes on my pc I cant reopen it

    When I first turn on my pc (windows vista 32bit) and open iTunes it plays fine, however when I close iTunes and then try to reopen it nothing happens. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times but nothing changes. Please Help

    I had this same problem and my sixteen year old figured it out. Since the Windows PC running iTunes (which supports a housefull of AppleTVs) was running in a closet, he suspected it was due to having no speakers attached.
    Sure enough, when I went into control panel to look at my sound settings, I noticed something I had missed previously. There was a red mark on the device. I took his advice and plugged in some earphones to the speaker jack and, wallah, the red mark turned green and the iTunes warning never popped up again.

  • Why when I close iTunes, it automatically opens again 20 seconds after..?

    When I close iTunes, it automatically opens again after.. why?

    TThe message is a bit deceptive the old libraries need to be upgraded before they can be used. To upgrade quit Aperture select one of the old libraries with the Finder and double click it. This will open Aperture on that library and ask if you want to upgrade it.
    WWhile the procedure is safe it is always a good idea to have a backup of the libraries before doing this.
