Playlist got lost from iPod and syncing isn't bringing it back

I had a playlist I love on my iPod Touch and somehow it got deleted from the iPod. I've already tried syncing and it didn't come back. I've also tried shutting down iTunes and restarting, then resyncing and it didn't come back. I've also tried a full factory restore of my iPod and then resyncing and all of my playlists came back except for that one playlist. I can't figure out why I can't get that one playlist back, and it's a playlist I use for falling asleep so I need it! Can anyone help?

If you had Find My iPod switched on in iCloud > Settings you may be able to find the iPod.

If they were imported from CDs, and you had no other backup of them on your system or another drive, you'll need to reimport them from CDs again.
For music purchased from the iTunes, you can redownload each track at no cost via iCloud. See this article for more details.

Updated to itunes 11 and all data lost from ipod and library

I updated to itunes 11 yesterday and then downloaded some cd's I'd bought on HMV Digital. lugged ipod in and all music appeared in library as normal. i transferred new music onto ipod and created some playlists. When i turned my ipod on this morning to go to work, there are no songs on it at all, not even the ones i downloaded and transferred last night!!!!
Having logged into itunes again tonight, the only music in my library is that which i downloaded last night... I am livid, there were thousands of songs on there and I don't have access to that music anymore... Is there any way I can retreive the info? All music isn't backed up on this laptop as ipod was previously synced with different PC

Just FYI - the situation is resolved. I downloaded the new snow leopard 10.6.8 update for safari and now itunes works. I have no idea what that has to do with anything - but I saw it on another forum and it actually worked.

I updated to iOS5 and Keynote and Numbers lost my presentations and spreadsheets, restore isnt bringing it back. What can I do?

As the title states, I lost all of my info in Keynote and Numbers, restore isn't helping. All it did was reset my Ipad and delete my camera roll then reinstall all of my apps like they were new.
Is there anyway I can get the information back?

You can only get your old backup back, if you included it into your computer backup routine and could restore the backup folder for your ipod.
If you have no other backups, your info is gone.
iTunes and iOS do not support installing backups of newer versions of iOS onto devices using earlier versions of iOS.
iTunes will not back up automatically if you are using iCloud.
Have a new iOS device and need to move your previous backup onto it? Follow the steps in How to transfer your backup from one iOS device to a new device.

When I try to sync music from iTunes playlist to my Ipod shuffle it says the iPod is synced to a different liabrary. It asks if I want to delete the music already on the Ipod and sync it to "this" library. I don't want to lose the music already on Ipod.

Please help. I have no idea why this is happening and I'm kinda new to using iTunes. I'm trying to sync music from a playlist on my iTunes account onto my iPod Shuffle (older Shuffle). I use Windows XP on my laptop. When I try moving the songs to the iPod it says the iPod is synced to another library. I didn't know I had another library (but I guess it is possible because I used iTunes a few years ago too).
The only option I get is to delete the music already on the iPod and sync the iPod to "this" library. I really don't want to lose the music already on the iPod. PLEASE HELP. I'm tech challenged to say the least.

I got a new iPod and now I can't sync my apps from my old ipod

I got a new iPod and now I can't sync my apps from my old ipod?

Just what are you trying to do with the photos?
If the photos on the old iPod are in the iPod's camera Roll album then import them to your computer:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
If they were synced to the iPod from another computer then you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView to import then into your computer.
Here is how to sync photos to the iPod:

i bought a ipod touch from a coworker and it wont sync up with my pc. i have reloaded itunes 5 times, checked my security which is allowing it through and had the ipod and sync cable checked at a local store. i think it has somthing to do with vista operating system, the ipod does not show up in devices and it continues to beep when it is plugged into the usb. this is my first ipod and so far am very frustrated .

My Ipod was originally set up as a sub-account of a firends. After that, I got an Iphone and set up my own Apple account. I just got a new Ipod, and now can't sync my old Itunes to it. Can anyone help me? I'm even OK with deleting the old Itunes account

My Ipod was originally set up as a sub-account of a firends. After that, I got an Iphone and set up my own Apple account. I just got a new Ipod, and now can't sync my old Itunes to it. Can anyone help me? I'm even OK with deleting the old Itunes account, and staring over. I just really want to get the new Ipod under my own account, and be able to use it...

There is no such thing as a "sub-account." Also, you probably mean iTunes library, when you say "account." Your "account" in iTunes is your Apple ID, which is what you use to sign in to the iTunes Store to make purchases. iPods are associated with an iTunes library, not with an Apple ID (iTunes Store account). You'll need to clarify...
So, this is what I think you are saying. You previously shared an iTunes library on a computer with your friend. Your old iPod was synced to that iTunes library.
You got an iPhone, and at that time, you set up your own iTunes library. Is that on a different computer? How does the iPhone affect your question about the iPod?
You got a new iPod. What is your "old iTunes"? Is that the iTunes library you shared with your friend?

I'm so confused what will it do? and what will it mean???

Follow these instructions to not lose any data. When you restore from backup as the article says the iPod will also be updated.

If I buy a tv show from my ipod and sync it to my library will it stay in the libary, even if I delete it.

If I buy a tv show from my ipod and sync it to the itunes library will it stay in the library, even if I delete it from my ipod. I just want to make sure I am not totally deleteing it and lose my money.

Deleting it from the Pod after copying it to the coputer will not dlelte it from your ligrary.

Have you tried connecting it to your computer and restoring the iPod via iTunes?
If iTunes does not see the iPod try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then restoring the iPod. For recovery mode see:
