Please help me! I'm actually crying. I made a horrible mistake

Oh God.....what do I do? I accidentally erased EVERYTHING on my iPod. I had 1526 songs on it, and they're all gone! I'm in tears. What can I do? Is there an 'undo' function? What I did was I accidentally told it to automatically update this one Playlist, but I didn't realize that it would erase everything and replace it with just that playlist. EVerything is gone!! All my CDs, all my playlists, everything. I feel like someone just died. There's got to be a way I can fix this. Please help me.

KillerTofu,
As long as you have not reloaded much (or any) new information to the iPod, the following links will direct you to software that has a (small/medium/good) chance of recovering some or all of your iPod’s music files. Several responders indicated that Recover4All worked for them (although it could be as a result of being first on the list below). Most are not shareware or freeware, so you may have to spend a little money.....
This link will give you several 'Erased iPod' recovery resources for both Mac and Windows users:

This PodSalvage software will only work with Macs running OS X. See the PodSalvage page at SubRosaSoft.com: http://www.subrosasoft.com/MacSoftware/index.php?mainpage=product_info&productsid=2
Make sure you read through many of the posts on the iLounge – some folks had good results, others had poor results. There seems to be a split camp on the effectiveness of recovery programs.
Either way, strongly consider a thorough backup strategy after you recover/replace your music: http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=394618&messageID=1263275

  • Can somebody please please help me! External harddrive not readable due to dumb mistake!

    What is quite possibly one of the dumbest decisions i ever made in my life, I disconnected my external harddrive from my imac & plugged it into a laptop that has Windows 7 to trasfer footage from there to my imac more quicker. I clciked an option that allowed me to assign a letter to it to it can be read by the laptop (however, I would of needed to format the harddrive which I thankfully didn't). Please understand that erasing the entire harddrive is NOT an option! I am a filmmaker & I have so many years of work on there, including videos, music, & documents.
    When the computer starts up I get hit with "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer"! I tried Disk Utiity & even though it recognizes the drive's existence, I cannot repair or mount...nor can I access any of the files! I also tried Diskwarrior & got "directory cannot be rebuilt, the file system is unsupported".
    If theres anything you guys can do to help me, please do so. My life was on that harddrive & losing it would be the most devistating thing I could ever experience. A movie I finished not too long ago...is also on that harddrive. I'll send you a full video completely thanking you for your help!

    Call a professional data recovery service such as DriveSavers. Their services are very expensive, but without backups, you have no choice but to pay whatever they ask.

  • Worldwide LTE. - please help me to understand whether I've made a costly error

    I really fought hard to get an XperiaZ LTE in the UK. Curry's/PC Wotld, the nation's leading tablet outlet, were very slow to stock It. Though you could get the Wi-Fi only version, I knew I'd be travelling a lot and wouldn't always be abke to count on Wi-Fi so I waited, ignoring pleas from friends to go for an iPad. When I was finally able to buy one on September 20 it had to be dispatched from Curry's warehouses since no stores in the south held it. Maybe that's why I was wrongly informed that it would work anywhere, as long as I purchased a local SIM card. Well, I was sent to the US for 10 days and guess what? Three hours at an AT&amp;T store got me nowhere. At first the AT&amp;T card would not load. Then the switched-on assistant tried it with an already registered SIM and it worked. We couldnt beloieve it. Wi-Fi was switched off but I was online. So she got a new SIM and registered using an iPad in my name. Unfortunately this time, we found ourselves back to square one. The tablet read the SIM card, but would not hook on to the internet. Of course, because I'd come to the US armed with my new Xperia, I'd decided to leave my Vaio at home. So I was stuck, essentially left with a Wi-Fi only device after fighting so hard to get LTE. Can someone please explain this to me? Why wouldn't the AT&amp;T SIM load when, clearly, it is technically compatible as demonstrated to me by AT&amp;T? Does this mean I will never be able to use the LTE function other than in the UK? Why don't iPads have this issue? Essentially, I am left feeling my loyalty to brand Sony may have left me making the wrong choice...<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>

  • Ipod Shuffle won't show up on the computer Please Help!!!!

    Ok,
    One day my Ipod worked was working and I could plug it the computer and it would charge and do everthing it was supposed to do. A few days later I edited my songs in Itunes and went to go plug in my Shuffle and nothing happened, no lights no nothing. It would not show up any where in my computer. I have had other problems that have been resolved by calling Apple. This Ipod is only 10 months old.
    Please Help.
      Windows XP  

    Actually, that's a good question. I thought it was true with all iPods, but I just tried an experiment on my full-sized iPod and it wasn't the case.
    I copied a song (one that I didn't mind deleting) manually to my iPod (not shuffle). I started playing it off the iPod list. Then I went to my main iTunes library list and deleted that song. The song kept playing and continued to be listed on the iPod's list. When I do the same thing with my shuffle, as soon as delete the song off the main library list, the song stops playing and the iPod shuffle re-syncs to no longer have the song.
    So to answer your question, I believe you can set the larger iPods to manually manage your music (not sync) and play songs from it on multiple computers. You just can't do the same thing with a shuffle.

  • Export DVCPROHD 720p Under 500MB - Please Help Me! :(

    Hey guys,
    Im new to this community but I have a question that has been killing me all night. I have done export after export after export and still, to no avail have i ended at a solution.
    Here is the deal:
    I have exported several movies from Final Cut Pro and uploaded them to Vimeo.com in HD and everything has been fine, smooth, and effortless for the most part. When I choose the option File > Export > Quicktime Movie it usually takes under 2 minutes, and creates a self contained movie on my desktop. Problem is this file is 2GB and sometimes wont play on other peoples computers, or macs. Possibly something to do with a final cut setting, not sure.
    But here is my problem, I usually go File > Export > Export using quicktime Conversion. I leave the settings as they are, never touch them and just save it to the desktop. It finishes a few minutes later and I have my file, 1280 X 720 resolution, H.264 and there is another codec that reads DVCPROHD 720p. I recently exported an interview I shot the EXACT same way without changing anything accept it seems to be missing this DVCPROHD 720p codec when I check out the file settings..
    If i open up the other videos that worked, the settings are pretty m3.06 Ghz uch exactly the same, but they have the "DVCPROHD 720p" codec thing. All the exports I have tried in the last 5 hours don't.. Unless its a 2GB file. The first movies I made were easily as long as my interview and not nearly as big in size.
    Im stuck. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong or how to include this codec, or how to export this so its under 500 mb with the dvcprohd thing.
    Please help? If anyone actually understood that..

    A file uses only one codec, never two. So your files are either DVCPROHD or h264
    (or somthing else), but not both.
    What codec is your FCP sequence (select the sequence and type command-0)?
    DVCPROHD is a better quality codec, might take less time to encode
    (depending on your FCP sequence settting) and is medium sized.
    h264 is a very high-quality codec for web-delivery, takes a LONG time to encode,
    and results in small files.
    Export > Quicktime Movie (using currrent settings, and self-contained)
    will use the same codec as your sequence. This is the fastest export.
    Export > Export using quicktime Conversion will permit you to make a
    lot of choices (and maybe a lot of mistakes). It defaults to h264.

  • The new update gave my ipne 4s many problems! now apple says i have to pay $150 to get it fixed? That is not fair!!! please help!

    Since the update my iPhone 4s started freezing and restarting by itself! I have done everything apple have told me to do. I restarted my phone like new restarted settings etc. And still its giving me the same problems.
    I don't believe I have to pay that amount of money because the reason for these issues is the update apple sent !!!!
    Please help!

    If you actually have an iPhone 4S, and 'Apple' referenced a $150 fee (assuming U.S. dollars), then that's not right.  Apple only charges $19 USD for troubleshooting assistance.  If the device cannot be fixed by troubleshooting and it needs to be replaced, then the out-of-warranty fee may apply.  For iPhone 4 and older, that's $149.  For iPhone 4S, that's $199.  For iPhone 5, 5C or 5S, that's $269.  For iPhone 6, that's $299.  For iPhone 6 Plus, that's $329.
    You have either inaccurate information from Apple, or you weren't talking to Apple.  What phone number did you call to talk to 'Apple'.

  • FaceTime requests to my iPod AND iMac computer, which is not wanted.. please help! Need answers ASAP.

    I just bought a iMac Intel. I was playing around with the settings and I typed in my Apple ID into the computer and connected my FaceTime to it. I also have a iPod touch (fourth generation) in which case, I have all my contacts on and information on. At first, it wasn't exactly working.. I think. I imported my contacts but they weren't showing up onto my contacts list, nor my contacts list on the FaceTime app. So, I logged out of my Apple ID and yes, there was a pop up asking me to delete all the information imported and I did press delete. But now, my iMac is logged out of my Apple ID. On the contacts list, it says there are no contacts. And it's literally empty. BUT, I'm recieving FaceTimes on my iPod which are also popping up onto the iMac. I went into my Settings, and literally everything was disconnected. In the contacts, there were none, 0. No iMessages. Nothing. But I'm still recieving FaceTimes to both devices, which I don't want. I need help trying to disconnect everything from the iMac, I do not want my FaceTimes also being recieved on there. PLEASE HELP ME, I AM STRUGGLING.
    Also, how do you reset all the settings on there? Even if there is no solution to finding a way to stop FaceTimes to going to both devices, obviously, there is but, on my iPod there is a setting that says "Erase All Content and Settings", can you do that on a iMac? If yes, please tell me how. Somebody please help me, I'm actually very in the need of help.

    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

  • Apple TV keeps asking my for my Credit Card verification code and I punch it in, still asks me for it, and restarted everything, went to my computer, checked the code, all is set, still can't rent a movie. Please help!

    Apple TV keeps asking my for my 3digit  Credit Card verification code and I punch it in, it still asks me for it, and went to my computer on iTunes store, checked the code, all is set and saved, go back to Apple TV still can't rent a movie, I still get the same Verification Required message without any further information after I punch in my 3digits. When I hit submit, the page goes back to the same place to type the code again, and yes the code is 100% accurate. I tried restoring the apple tv, every thing is up to date on all devices and signed in and out of my itunes store on my Mac, still no luck. Please help!

    This issue actually started a week ago... see: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23399558#23399558
    to determine if there are the same problems you are experiencing.  I have spent over 6 hours on this issue trying to isolate if it is a hardware, software, network, iTunes account, or Apple device issue.  My initial results indicate it is a software specific issue related to the Apply TV hardware device.

  • I reversed a section of audio, and now the whole project and all of my backups are ruined. Please help

    Okay, so basically I was really happy with the track, it has chopped up vocals all from the same vocal track.
    I was just experimenting and reversed a section of audio, but didn't save the changes because i didn't want to save this reverse.
    however now i've just opened my project and all of the vocals are messed up and not how they were before - and all of my backups are the same. can someone please help me , i feel like crying . I have no idea what has happened - and is there any way i can get it back to how it was before?
    Best regards,
    Dom

    How are they not as before?
    I'm not an expert, but as far as I know, when you change an audio clip in Logic you really change the audio file, meaning everywhere else where you have used the same file it will be changed the same way. I'd go for the Audio file list in the Browser and try to find the changed audio file and change it back. Hope it helps!

  • How to copy Lion on a CD once installed please help.

    hi guys please I hope you can help me. yesterday i installed Lion but made a huge mistake, I forgot to copy it on CD whilst I was still on Leopard. Is there a way I can retrieve it, so I can have a copy just in case anything happens i don't wish to lose it.
    do you think that if once i bought it, and anything happens, apple will know automatically that i already installed it on my mac?.
    HEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPP!!!!.

    Go back to the App store and access your purchased apps. The entry for Lion will be greyed out and say Installed. Option click on this and it should change to Install allowing you to download again. This time don't run the installer and the Installer Package will be left in your Applications folder.
    Here's an Apple article on how to do this.
    The relevant information is at the bottom of the page.
    Alastair.
    Actually scratch that!!
    I've just tried it and it doen't work despite what Apple is suggesting in the instructions in the article. Perhaps they have not implemented the feature yet.

    Hello
    I hope that someone here can help me. I would really appreciate it.
    Since I bought a new laptop with Windows Vista I had trouble using my Creative Zen Touch Mp3 player. 40 GB.
    Today I tried to update it. I think I made a horrible mistake of erasing the firm ware. Im really not that familiar with these things.
    I erased it before the new firmware was downloaded.
    Now Im really panicking!
    Now on the mp3 player I have the "Recovery Mode"
    with 4 options:
    1)clean up
    2)format all
    3)reload firmware
    4)reboot
    please please please pleasee help me. i hope i wont end up throwing it away..
    Please let me know what to do step by step.
    Thanks in advance..

    PS :When Im trying to reload new firmware, with the exe file I downloaded, it says the player is not connected...
    Message Edited by selen on -0-2008 :36 AM

    Thanks ever so much!! So I suppose I did not screw it up for good? Just need to find a friend who uses Xp. and do it on their computer. I suppose thats the only way.
