Please help me! My music is gone!

Ok, so my computer was just fixed and wiped clean and I got it back today. I had been charging my iPod for the last week on a different computer, but I still had the files on it. When I got my computer back, I downloaded iTunes. Since I downloaded iTunes and it had no files on it, when I plugged my iPod into my computer, it updated to the iTunes I just installed, and wiped all of my music off of my iPod. I have no idea what to do, since there is nothing on my computer right now. Please help me! The 1-800 number is not in service right now!

OMG i have the same exact problem but i didnt plug my iPod in yet bc i had a feeling something wuld happen.
hi Scott!
okay, here's a good reference:

OK. Sounds like you are simply below the top level of the Inbox menu. Look at the upper left of the mail box list. You should some text (what exactly will depend on where you are) precedded by an <. Tap on that until you return to the top of the list.
Also - Phil could very well be correct (hard to say with being able to see your screen).

Try a Reboot press & hold menu button & power button hold both down until you see Apple Logo you will not lose any data. But you may need to do this more than once. I never use PCs for software upgrades or downloads I always use wifi had no problems with iOS 8.1 B sydd

Please help! My screen has gone blank, and more problems!

Hi, I hope someone can help!
1) Yesterday, I was listening to my ipod and changing the songs, when it suddenly the songs began changing on shuffle every second mid-song!
2) Eventually it stopped, but then it really slowed down and would take about 5 seconds to react to me pressing the buttons or changing a song!
3) Then today, after I had finished using it whilst running, the screen went completely blank, but the music was still working fine. The screen is now still blank, unless I tip it vertically and then I can just about make out an extremely faded outline of the wrting and page format. Also there now appears to be a white smudge/mark on one side of the screen!
What is happening to my ipod and what can I do about these problems? I have had my ipod for only a couple of months!
I would be very grateful of anyone could help!
Thank you,

Please help! My shuffle has gone totally up the shoot!

Hi everyone, I seem to have developed a rather major problem with my shuffle and I don't know how to fix it.
Since I got my shuffle I've been using it on my work computer then I got a new work computer and it was some weeks before I could reinstall itunes - I finally did that a couple of days ago.
When I reinstalled itunes it asked me if I wanted to update to the latest version which I did.
When I plugged my shuffle in the name came up in itunes as 'DATA' which wasn't the name I'd previously given it.
When I tried to update the music it said it was doing it but it seemed to happen too quickly and when I checked it hadn't changed the music. It tried several times with no luck.
I downloaded the latest ipod software and restored my shuffle, when itunes opened up I renamed my shuffle and tried to add new music. It said it was doing it but again seemed to be doing it too fast and when I checked there was no music on the shuffle.
So I re-restored it and did all the same stuff again...with the same results.
Finally I restored it for a third time at which point it my computer stopped recognising it at all.
Now:
* when you press play on the shuffle the green and orange lights flash.
* my shuffle doesn't show up in itunes
* doesn't show up in my computer (it never did in the first place though)
* my computer won't recognise it if I try to restore or update it.
* finally today I've tried reinstalling it from the original disc that came with it but my computer doesn't even recognise that my shuffle is plugged in when it asks to check if it's formatted.
Yes I'm using a high speed cable and yes I've tried reinstalling itunes and the ipod software - several times.
I don't know what else to do - please, please can anyone help or suggest anything or tell me where I can get this fixed?

I replaced my first shuffle two weeks ago after installing the 1.1.2 software (haven't seen any bills and don't expect to either!).
Sadly i didn't realize it was the software update that caused the burnout so i updated the new shuffle when it arrived (after two days actually - nice service) resulting in another burnout.
This is how i described the problem to apple:
Dead Unit / Continious
Green/Amber light flicker when pushing play. The iPod Shuffle is recognized as a "Removable Disc" but Windows XP reports the following error when trying to access the device: "The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error." - rendering it unusable.
Reinstalling iTunes and iPod updater doesn't help. The iPod Updater can't initialize the device and iTunes doesn't recognize the iPod Shuffle at all! Neither PCs or Macs recognized the device properly. It's dead!
I just reported this second dead shuffle and expect a new one in a few days. Next time i'll leave the default software intact and only update with iTunes previous to version 5.x
I'll report back as soon as i know if this is a solution or not.
The best of luck to the rest of you unlucky shuffle owners

Please help my desktop images, wallpapers gone.

Please community i need your help. I restored my computer from Lion to lion, before i had Leopard and i had all my favority desktop wallpapers, for example aurora , earth horizon , earth etc.. When i installed for the first time Lion , i got even more desktop images for ex. Aurora at grey or blue colors those i loved so much . I am so new to mac's ok i did not even know where my folders were, i even wanted to get the same background images for me phone too ^^. But when i did a restore from Lion to Lion means that i erased(and i forgot to backup or search for the desktop images on my mac it was to late ) my disk and got the install all over again , all my desktop wallpapers were gone. Now please if possible for some1 to sent me if he got upgraded from Leopard to Lion and did not erased or kept a backup of desktop images, to simple sent me the folder with all the descibed images i mention, i would be very happy again thank you.

have had the same problem. also not a computer buff - mine had not been in for work when it would go to sleep after i had shut if down. happened a few times then i lost photos, lots of them. took it to local APPLE repairs and they found nothing, 21 days later.
last night it did it again - powered off at home and sleeping when i got to the office.
any advice?

Please help - deleted my MUSIC!!

Let me see if I can explain this right. I had an Ipod Shuffle.... and I just got a new Ipod video.
My son asked me to get him a song for the shuffle I gave to him, so I bought a song on Ittunes... for the shuffle.
It asked me if I wanted the songs to replace the others and I hit yes..and EVERYTHING IS GONE!!
SO>>> the next time I plug in my Ipod, and I going to lose all my purchased songs??
Any way I can get these songs back?
I just got them... and I dont want to lose them!
Catrin

I did the same exact thing yesterday. I was able to recover all of my songs including the purchased songs but I can't get the purchased songs to download to my iPOD (the good thing is they are back on my computer and I can listen to them there).
If you have anything on there that you burned you can get everything off your C:Drive and back into your iTunes library. From iTunes, you will go to file, add folder to library, highlight your 'iTunes Music'folder (your folder should be under My Music/iTunes/iTunes Music)
To get your purchased songs back, access the music store. Go to Advanced at the top of the page and check for purchases. Everything you have ever purchased should show up and then you will hit the 'download' button.
After all of my music was downloaded again, the first time I tried to access a purchased song it asked me for my iTunes password. Once I typed that in and hit ok, i was able to listen to all purchased songs.
Now, if you can figure out how to get them back on the iPod, let me know! Don't ever hit 'yes' when you are asked that question again because it will erase everything again. I was asked the question today at one point and I hit No and then Don't ask again just in case I have a memory lapse!
I hope this helps~

Please Help me with music

Hello,
I would like to ask for help.
I am looking for a music, used in the old, very old 20's-50's movies.

Or sometime when somebody is building something this song plays. No singing in the music, a tipycal old movie music. Sorry Can not name the title, but any help is appreciated.
If you have an idea, please link a you tube video. I am sure this on is on, I just don't know what key word I need to look for.
Thanks,
Tibby

URGENT PLEASE HELP WITH A MUSIC FILE

Sorry for the urgency but this is last minute.
I need getting a music file to start playing on one slide and play through to about four slides.
What happens is the music will start playing but when I click to the next slide it stops playing.
Please Help

Yes, you will connect two separate Keynote files using the hyperlink function, found in the Hyperlink Inspector. You attach a hyperlink to text or an object (which can be set to be completely transparent), and then point the hyperlink to the other presentation. (When presenting, it is a good idea to have both presentations open, so there is no delay when you click the hyperlink.)

PLEASE HELP - MORE & MORE MUSIC SKIPPING!

I started with a small problem a year ago and now more and more music skips - I update as offered so I have the lastest version all the time. Can you help?

Hi iwahdn,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It can be frustrating when files go missing. You may want to follow the steps in this article to verify that the music files are still on your computer:
iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1408
If the music is in the iTunes Media folder on your computer, but not in your library, the iTunes library might need to be re-created:

You can also use the steps in this article to troubleshoot iTunes if songs are skipping:

PLEASE HELP! Darwin/bsd is gone? But new problem!

Okay, here is the story.
I came home after a trip and I was presented with the Darwin/BSD problem. Well I did what the other threads said and checked my log. My log said things like "authorization failed" but no "exiting to consol" There were PAGES AND PAGES AND PAGES so I didn't check it all. I figured i'd take it into an apple store or something... So I waited about a week. Then I turend it on again and BOOM. I was presented with "Choose your language" as if my Apple was completely restarted. Well I got really excited and told it english, and watched the welcome video.
Then I picked my country...
And then..
It said "Do you already own a mac?"
And I had three choices
"-Transfer my information from another mac
-Transfer my information from another partition on this mac
-Do not transfer my information"
Well see this is where another problem starts. See.. I don't KNOW if I "partitioned" my hard drive.. I sort of doubt it, unless its like automatic.. Well I surely didn't want to "NOT transfer" my information, so I clicked the partition one, and it went to a screen where it began searching. WEll it searched...
and it searched...
and it searched...
For days, hahah.
I finally gave up and FORCE turned it off because the GO BACK button would not work...
This same thing happened twice, and at this very moment I'm at the same screen asking me how I want to transfer my information.
And let me tell you this- I CAN NOT lose this info on my computer. It is some of my most valuble documents... so PLEASE, PLEASE someone help me. Do I say "Do not transfer" amd it will already be on there? Or do I take it to the apple store and get them to retreive my harddrive information somehow in single user mode or something.
Gosh, please helpp
IMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.7) no isight

Choose not to transfer your information, and then create a new account with the original short name. If you previously created multiple accounts on the system, recreate them all in the same order they were initially created. None of your data will be erased.

Please help - play list music vanished

Any ideas?? - unfortunatly apple support isn't available on a Sunday. I have just sync my iphone and it has erased all the music in my play lists, both on the phone and in Itunes (under the device drop down). My purchases are all still visible but it won't allow me to drag any music into any playlists or sub folders to recreate them.

Scott was a big help, in that he helped me resolve this under: "Startup disk almost full. What do I do now?" So I'm giving credit to Scott here for his help which ultimately answered this question. (SuperDuper! worked great and I got everything back; iTunes purchased music, addresses, everything, thank God!)

Please help me! Music problems!!!

Is it possible to restore files that were recently deleted from an iPod? Apparantly, my iTunes settings reset and so it started to automatically update (it was in manual mode, so I have no CLUE why)and deleted the 1700+ songs I had on my iPod! I don't have them saved to my computer anymore, so please, please, please is there anyway to restore recently deleted music?
Please say yes....

Let's clear up one thing first. The manual transfer option is an iPod setting not an iTunes one.
If the songs are no longer on iTunes or the iPod, then you are faced with buying and using some 3rd party data recovery software as mentioned in this post.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=931813&#931813
Other than that, you are out of luck.

Please help me! My music is gone!
