Please Help I'm going to loose 5000 songs

Last week my hard disk was damaged.I have 40gb ipode with 5000 songs in it.I have 2 questions.
1.I installed itunes and it is empty. I'm afraid that if i connect the ipod all of the songs will be erased. Is it true? (because when i connected it, it used to immediately start the transfer frop the pc to ipod)
2.If the above is true and i can't put the songs back to my itunes is there any way not to loose the songs from my ipod(maybe to lock the ipod?).

Georgia,
Welcome to the discussions.

    You have answered your own question:
    "requires 10.6.3 or higher"
    " i upgraded my itunes to 10.5 "
    You need itunes 10.6.3 or later.

    When I try to download my updates it keeps saying cannot connect to iTunes store please help I'm going mad!

    a lot of people have posted about this and i have seen one weird thing fix this. people said they where going into date and time under settings and changing  the date to some time in the future and then going to the itunes store and it would give them an error that there date and time was wrong. then all you need to do is go back and set the date and time right and go back to the itunes store and try again.
    Im not sure why this did the trick but a bunch of people said that this helped them out..... Weird i know
    You might want to see if it fixes your problem.

    If you have all of the songs and videos still in your library I would recommend doing the restore of the iPod.

    iOS 7.1 update requires approximately 350MB's of storage space.
    Tap Settings > General > About > Available to see free storage space.
    Very important to never allow the free storage space to fall below at the very least 500MB's or your iPhone may not boot.
    You need to free up storage space on your iPhone for future updates as well.

  • PLEASE HELP: iPhone 4 goes into phase of inconsistent service

    Every once in a while, my iPhone screen will turn black...hen I have to reset the power, and when I turn it on I am stuck with these symptoms:
    Every minute or so, my IPhone 4 loses service.
    It goes from Full service > Searching > No Service > Full service (This process repeats)
    I cannot make calls and can only send text messages during the phases of service.
    Attempted Solutions:
    I realized that when I restore the phone to factory settings, the problem temporarily goes away but returns a few days or couple weeks later.
    Does anyone have this problem or know what might be the cause? Is it the phone itself? This phone was my mother's old phone, but I swapped phones with her at an AT&T store, inserting my SIM into the iPhone. Could it be the sim?
    Please help!

    Go back to the store and get them to check the Sim and the Device.

  • Exporting for DVD? Please help, I'm going nuts.

    Hi all,
    Pretty huge issue at the moment. I have a deadline to meet and I can't export my movie out of Final Cut to a DVD. How can I export the timeline for a DVD quality finished product? I don't have Compressor installed and I think this is a major issue. I tried printing to tape so I could bring the project over to Adobe Premiere and use Encore to publish the DVD, but every time I try to print to tape it constantly drops frames and it's hopeless.
    If anyone has any suggestions at all please help me!
    Thanks,
    Daryl

    thing is, I don't have FCS...I have FCP. I had my software installed where I bought my mac from, and I've came to realize now that I have nothing else but FCP installed...there is nothing else there that came with FCS. It's not really a huge problem because I can take my mac back whenever I want to get the owner to install any software I need, but that's kind of an issue at the moment considering I have deadlines. I can't afford to have my mac sitting at their office for a day or two at this point.
    If I can just figure out how to print this thing back to tape so I can bring it into Premiere on my PC and use Encore to make the DVD everything will be golden. I'm just having HUGE issues trying to print this to tape...which shouldn't be a problem in the first place. (that I have encountered anyway).

  • Please help... going insane, DVD to my iPod?

    I really want to put raging bull on my iPod, I can not find any software that walks me through this process, is there any easy way to convert my movies to my iTunes library? pretty please help me?

    Since it is illegal to break the encryption on commercial DVDs onto your computer, it cannot be discussed in these forums.
    The DMCA (Digital Millenium CopyRright Act) makes it illegal to break the encryption to RIP them to your computer, even if you have purchased and own the DVD.

  • Please help!  i tunes won't display song list or artist ??

    have 2 identical new computers and have installed itunes on both. One computer will open the cd automatically but does not display the artist and songs. The other computer automatically opens the cd and displays both the titles and artist. I must have a setting wrong on my one computer somewhere but have no idea where to look. I have un installed and re installed i tunes a few times but the settings never change. I have put both as my default player but still no luck. Please help!

    Thanx for responding vdub, I deleted I tunes because I made the mistake of importing all of my music for a second time after adding all of my music to my new external hard drive and what happened, was, that created duplicates of almost all of my files and triples and quads of a whole lot of them. After spending 2 days trying to manually delete the duplicates and barely putting a dent in it, I decide it would be easier to just delete everything and just start over, well apparently that was a bad idea because now I've been trying to reinstall itunes for about a week with no success. Also retrieving it from the recycle bin is not an option because, of course, I emptied the bin. I'm lost,....

  • PLEASE HELP - BACKED UP IPOD BUT CANNOT GET SONGS BACK ON IPOD

    Hi. I have a U2 ipod photo. Recently have had alot of problems with songs dissapearing and i had to reset IPOD everytime. I bought the my ipod in the US 2 years ago with the "Complete U2 set" installed on the ipod. All the songs that came with the special edition ipod.
    The consultant in the store loaded all the songs for me as we can not do it thru Itunes via South Africa with and SA credit card or login. So i read all the online help files and made a backup disc of all my "purchased songs" which is the U2 collection.
    Now i can not get the songs back on my ipod and i cannot play them on my machine. Said im not authorised. Gives me a login request with this email addres "[email protected]".
    Have been trying to contact apple, but i cannot find an address to email to ask for help. If i start my itunes and insert the backup disc it puts on the music in my library, but i cannot move it or change it.
    PLEASE HELP.
    thks
    nicol

    You are out of luck for non-Tunes purchases. The iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:        
      Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Please help - Urgent - fans going mad... Can it be a second hard drive...?

    Hi there. I'm afraid i know very little about the workings of a mac other than swapping drives, ram etc.
    I was made redundant a week ago and part of my severance was a 3.0QX tower... I have been leant an SSD drive running 10.6.8 which I know was working in the mac when I got it as I saw it running. I was also given a 1Tb drive as a work drive.
    Tonight after returning from a holiday I have put the 1tb into one of the spare bays and booted the machine up, instantly the fans have come on and are blowing like a hovercraft on steroids. I took out the 1tb drive and I have noticed a small bit of black tape sat from the power and data connectors it was stuck to two pins on both sides. Now the mac won't boot at all and the fans are going mad on startup this is all before the usual mac 'boot' sound.
    Please can someone advise as to whether this has shorted something or if there is a way to reboot or any advise as I have no idea and absolutely no clue and I am in mad panic mode as I am in desperate need to get this machine up and running so I can sort out my portfolio as well as website etc to get a new job ASAP.
    The tape looks like it may have caught from the Bluetooth cables near to bay 2 and have been 'cut off' when when the drive was inserted. The tape looks like the cotton/material finish as oppose to a plastic insulate tape...
    I appreciate any help as I can ill afford to replace or repair to be honest. So any feedback is better than non. Many thanks in advance.

    The chime means the Mac has passed a Power-On-Self-Test; yours doesn't which is not good news.
    I'd suggest going here and downloading the correct service manual. Based on "3.0QX tower" I think you have an early 2008 but I could be wrong; do you know which Mac Pro it is? If it is in fact the early 2008, get that manual and look at the diagnostic instructions starting on page 165. 

  • Creating a score set - please help- I'm going crazy

    OK- deep breath ...........I'm trying to create a score set for 4 instruments. I read the manual, then tried everything on p 765........... I started first with the tracks in the Arrange area.- with and without rubber bands - and because this didn't work, I scrubbed this and tried to simply set up thew score in the Score Editor.
    It didn't work. I want to be able to see the music for 4 instruments - at one go -in the score editor. Is this possible ?
    Please someone save my sanity and give me an blow- by- blow account how to achieve this. I've been on this for hours and can't see the wood for the trees now so am going out for a breath of fresh air.
    Kay.

    You can look at the bottom of the arrange page.. But for 4 tracks I would open a score editor window by itself.. The score section is complex and not intuitive to say the least..
    In the score editor, click on the 6th from the left box. it looks like a page of text (when you highlite it will turn blue).. That shows you the whole score, in a tradional page format.. If you still see only one track, double click somewhere other than the track, (space in between). Page will toggle between showing one track/ and all tracks..
    To make life easier if you have many tracks to display = create a 'score set'. Label it, (band etc). reduce the size, 50 - 65% whatever. Then go under File in Logic, page set up.. Select the 90 turn, so now the pages longer side to side. You can see more measures at a time..
    You may want to have several score sets, to help with editing. One of everything. another to show just the piano and guitar, etc. This will make it easier to edit, copy paste between staves etc.
    The score editor is very powerful, if you take the time to figure it out, but documentation is vague
