  • My hard drive crashed and I have lost my Itunes library. How can I get my the music that I loaded from my own CDs back on my PC from my iPod?

    My hard drived crashed in my HP Pavilion desktop and I have installed a new one. I have Windows 2007. My Itunes library is gone. How can I get all the music that I loaded onto my iPod from my own CD's back into an Itunes library?

    The loading of audio files to iPod is designed to go one way only: computer to iPod. There are some third-party applications available which will rescue an audio library and write the files back to a PC HDD. The playlists might not copy, nor the album art work, nor videos but you might be able to recover all audio files. Some apps are open source and available for free download, for example: Senuti, Onyx. There are others which are  Windows-based; do a Google search to find out. 

  • My laptop recently crashed and is unsalvagable with my itunes library on it.  My ipod touch has all of my music still on it.  Is there a way that I can put the songs on my ipod onto itunes on my new computer??

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your iPod for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

    There is no Info tab in Mavericks

  • Just got an imac and am trying to transfer itunes library from Dell pc via home share method. All goes well but directions say to click the import button.  I don't see an import button anywhere. If I close itunes on pc it also disappears from imac.

    Just got an imac and am trying to transfer itunes library from dell pc using home share method.  All goes well until the end when directions say to click import button.  I don't see one anywhere.  If I shut down itunes in the pc the library also disappears from the imac.  Am I doing something wrong?

    check the lower right corner of the iTunes window
    if you don't see this while the homeshared library is loaded, home sharing hasn't been set up properly.

    no.
    that's expected behavior.

  • Hello i lost my itunes library how do i recover it thank you

    hello i lost my itunes library on my mac
    how do i recover it thank you

    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library(.itl) as iTunes Library Corrupt(.itl) and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library(.itl) then start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library. Newer Mac & Windows libraries use the .itl extension. A library initially created on an older iTunes for Mac version might not.
    See MusicFolder Files Not Added and Super Remove Dead Tracks for tools to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.

  • My computer with my itunes crashed and I cannot retieve my itunes library

    my computer with my itunes library has crashed and I can't get my music. also two of our family's Ipods were stolen, their names were: Norma's ipod and Amber's ipod. So now we have new ones and am trying to get our music and movies on them but not until I can recover my old library from my crashed computer.

    Syncing is the only way.  Explain what you mean by "doesn't seem to work."  Exacty, what did you do and what happend.
    Are  you sure your iPhone is signed into the same iTunes Store account as iTunes on your computer?

  • I have a library on my Ipod Classic and a different one on iTunes.  How can I sync both without losing any files?

    I think I may have deleted the original library a while back.  Since then, I have been collecting new files.  Now that I sat down to sync, I am unable to load new files at all.  Is there maybe a way to upload library on ipod into itunes library and then reload all back onto ipod?
    I don't want to lose any of it! Help!

    You'll want to extract all the content that is currently on the iPod and copy it back over into your new iTunes library.  Once you have successfully done that, you can go ahead and restore your iPod to factory settings and then sync away as restoring the iPod will allow it to sync with the new iTunes library.
    See this older post from another forum regular Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with this task.

  • TS1967 I have just bought a new computer and downloaded latest version of itunes.  It has all installed fine, but when I sync my ipod, it shows all the songs but won't play any of the songs in that library.  Also, I can't add new files.

    I have just bought a new computer and downloaded the latest version of itunes.  It has all installed fine, but when I plug my ipod and sync it, the music library shows all the songs and videos that are on there, but won't let me play them.  Also, I can't add any new songs to the same library.  It saves them elsewhere. I have had the previous version on another computer and it worked just fine.  I have been online trying to find an answer but nothing.  Hope someone can help me. Thanks

    Installing iTunes does not cause content to magically appear on the computer.
    Your media is only where you put it.
    iOS devices are not backup devices.
    Copy the media from the old computer to the new computer.
