Problems with ITunes and files

Hi all
My laptop recently broke and I ended up throwwing it away , forgetting it had all my Itune library in it. Luckily I have all my music on my IPod Touch.
Is there anyone who can tell me IF OR HOW I can transfer music from Ipod into Itunes? I don't have the laptop so cannot transfer through network,from hard drive etc.
Please help, I am a Zumba Instructor and this music is vital for me.
Thank you

- Transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music using a third-party programlike one of those discussed here:
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
Some programs like PhoneView can do more than music.
- If you are in the USA you can also redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Problem with itunes and iphoto after time machine restoration

After an apocalyptic type meltdown in my hardrive the other night, I now have a new one. I have restored as much as I had backed up using time machine when I turned my computer back on for the first time. However in iphoto it lists all the different albums I have, but all the photos come up as grey squares. They are definitely on the computer as you can see them in the iphoto originals folder in the finder window.
A similar problem with itunes. My itunes library is totally blank, with no songs whatsoever. However the songs are there in itunes music folder.
How can I restore everything back to normal?
Matt

Look at Q15 here. http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
There are separate sections for iphoto and itunes.
It has to be so complicated because Apple made TM to do too much and be too many things to too many people.. a horse designed by a committee. It has become flakey in later editions.
If you still have the iMac you can move the files directly from the source.. you don't need to use TM backups at all.

Problem with iTunes and iPhone Music organization. PLEASE READ AND HELP!

Hello All!
I have this problem concerning iTunes and my iPhone. When I add music, and I update the Artist title to organize it in my iPhone, It shows EDITED on my mac in iTunes, but not my iPhone. I took a screen shot of what It shows. The TOP is iTunes showing "Arie Dixon" and "Arie Dixon & Olivia Cipolla" two seperate CD's, yet different Artist Titles, just the way I want it. The BOTTOM shows how the file was originally, in 3 seperate titles, "Bebe Boohgz" "The Jackmove 3" and "Arie Dixon 'Bebe Boohgz' and Olivia Cipolla". The problem is that iTunes shows it in the correct title, but my iPhone won't. This is my 2nd iPhone 4 I have that has this problem. I'm not sure if it's the settings or encoding, can someone help me out? I can't be the only person with this problem. Apple rep looked at me like o_O
I also have music that won't appear in my iPhone, I manually have to search for, but appears on my iTunes in the correct title.
I also have everything updated, and have the new os x release.

I have a 3GS and the ios is 4.3.4. I am trying to load the latest version so I can then get the icloud.
So plug the device into the computer and upgrade.
Are you getting a specific error message when trying to do this?
As for the message about the media disappearing, of course it will. This is how iOS upgrades work. The device is wiped and the newest version of iOS for the device is installed as a "new" device then the device is restored using the backup created prior to the upgrade.
All the content on the device should already exist in iTunes on the computer.
If you want to move your iTunes library to a different drive for capacity reasons, do the following:
Close iTunes
Copy or Move the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the C drive to the other drive.
While holding SHIFT launch iTunes. iTunes will then prompt the user to select a library or create a new one. Point iTunes to the new iTunes folder location.

Problem with iTunes and low quality playback on headphones

So I have an awesome pair of Phillips headphones that are awesome and recently i've been using my headphones and noticed that during playback the audio quality was not what it used to be. Crackily on the high notes and fuzzy on the bass notes plus overall just bad quality. I investigated more and isolated the problem to itunes and not my headphones. They work perfectly on an ipod or when I play a video on youtube. So I am wondering what is wrong. I assume it as something to do with iTunes. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I did try adjust the sound enhancer originally (should have noted that). It helped with some of the notes, did not fix. Where is the equalizer in 10.6?

Multiple problems with itunes and ipod touch

I don't even know where to begin explaining all the problems I've had with itunes and my ipod touch, along with the troubleshooting that I've done to no avail. Now, I'm totally frustrated. So, here I am hoping that I can get some help from someone. I spent almost $400 for my ipod touch and don't want to have to give up on it.
First, in case you need to know, I have the latest version of iTunes (10.2.2.14), an iPod Touch. My Windows edition is Windows Vista with Service Pack 2. My system has the following:
     Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard Company
     Model: m9150f
     Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU   Q6600 @ 2.40GHz 2.40 GHz
     Memory (RAM): 3.00 GB
     System type: 32-bit Operating System
Next, in order to simplify what I have to say, I'll just briefly tell you what problems I've encountered, what I've done, and the results:
     1.     iPod not displayed in Computer when plugged into USB port
     2.     no device displayed in iTunes
     3.     unable to sync music and photos from my computer to iPod
     4.     have gone through and completed all troubleshooting two times to no avail
     5.     lost all settings and apps on my iPod and can't restore and/or retrieve them (my fault for erasing the info)
     6.     can't get iTunes to recognize(?) my iPod, after plugging it into the the USB port, in order to possibly restore it to working order
If I haven't provided enough info, please let me know.
I'll appreciate any help that you can give in order to resolve these issues.
Thank you.
Chris

did that include this support article ?
also, have you made sure Apple Mobile Device Service is installed and started ?

I had problems with iTunes and supposedly got it fixed. Now I cannot get into my mail. It has changed my id to an unusable email address.

I cannot get into my cloud mail. It wants me to log in with an email that no longer exists. I had this problem with iTunes also. I do not wish to use that address. I want to use the ID and password I have been using for the past 2 years.

Click on that Apple Id and then Sign out from that Apple Id and try to Sign In with your New Apple Id and see if that works.

Problem with iTunes (and all of iLife!!!) finding information on machine

I just bought a new G5 Black Macbook, and had the Apple Store transfer my old profile from my G4 iBook in the past week. When i picked up my macbook, everything worked fine and all the pictures, music and personal preferences were transfered, but in the past day all programs act like i'm a new user, and do not register any of my old music, photos, or preferences. My iTunes library is located in its usual place, and all music is there, but Itunes seems not to see it, the same goes for iPhoto.
The two things that have happened in between the computer working fine and this problem are: I have installed Growl, and renamed my home tab in finder. I'm not sure if either of these played a part, but its changes that have been made.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to to solve this problem, or should i just take it all back to the Apple Store?

Well all the songs are Mp3s, but I will try a CD. Also, as I mentioned, I tried a few converters for the videos, and Videora was one of them. The videos that I converted with Videora don't seem to want to import to iTunes, and the .mov files won't sync (For obvious reasons now I guess). I tried reinstalling iTunes and all sorts of stuff but they just don't want to work

Problem with iTunes and PrintScreen

I have a lil' problem.
When a song is playing in iTunes, and while it is playing, I push printscreen and my computer makes a strange sound and the music stops playing. It will only start playing again when i move the printscreen img file to the trash can.
This is pretty weird, never had it before...
Anyone familiar with this problem?

okay katrina, i installed quicktime standalone,but i still the vanishing license message, i checked my task manager, i see qttask.exe, however, i do not see itunes.exe, i only see ipodservice.exe and itunesservice.exe thus, if you can tell me how to install itunes by itself, i think you will solve all my troubles, please respond asap

Problem with iTunes and Hard Drive

I'm not sure if anyone else is having this problem but I haven't had it up until this morning. I was putting songs onto my iPod (It's set to manual manage) and I would drop and drag and go look for a new song but when I brought the folder up it would tell me that the previous songs file destination couldn't be found, and it was deleted from my Music Folder however when I went to click on the song to get it's information the file destination would say it was in it's original spot I'm not sure what to do since I've never had this problem before and I don't think it's my Ipod I think it's something either with iTunes or my Computer and I can' figure out which.
Any more questions let me know and any help would be great!
Thanks!!
Erin

Problems with itunes and ipod

If anyone can help me with this problem i would really appreciate it
The problem started about a week ago when i had just finished downloading some music off of morpheus. My computer displayed a message saying that I didn't have anymore space on my ipod, i knew this was incorrect because my ipod holds 500 songs and at the time i only had about 270 songs. Itunes displayed another message saying that it would select various songs to a new created playlist. The problem with this is it only put 70 songs back on the ipod. So I deleted it. The next day i tried putting more songs back on it, and i got another message saying that itunes was corrupt. Strangely, itunes wiped ALL my songs off my ipod. I have virus protection so i ran the mcafee virus scan, and no files were infected. Now Everytime I hook up my ipod to my notebook i get a message saying " Ipod cannot be updated because all the selected playlists for updating no longer exist." I have tried resetting my ipod, updating itunes, creating new playlists, and nothing just seems to work.
If anyone knows how to remedy this problem please let me know.
Thanks.

" Ipod cannot be updated because all the selected playlists for updating no longer exist."<<</div>
It sounds like you have the ipod set to automatically update selected songs and playlists only. Try placing it into a different updating configuration.
This article explains how to change the mode of the ipod:

Syncing problems with Itunes and Ipod Help?

Okay..I don't even know what's been happening with the newest Ios 5 update for apple products, but since the update, my ipod hasn't been able to synch with Itunes.
For example, I manually organize all my music and when I edit the album artist or the album artwork etc, it would show up in Itunes perfectly, but on the Itouch, nothing has been changed. This means that not only does it now show the album artwork that I set up in Itunes, but also all the artists as well. I've seen many people so far having this problem, but through all the solutions people have said, none have worked for me. Another problem is that it also mix and matches all the songs I have downloaded as well. Only the songs I purchase seem to be alright.
I have tried many things from restoring my Itouch and re-downloading music, manually re-synching my Itouch to see if the artists will show up, but to no avail, it hasn't worked.
Please help me. It's getting quite frustrating that nothing is synching since the newest ios 5.1.1 update. Thank you

The ipod touch will only sync to one computer at a time. If you sync to another it will indeed erase the content from the ipod first, then replace with content from the new computer.
Sign into your account on the computer, make sure it is authorized, then connect the ipod:
Without syncing, File>Transfer Purchases

Problem with iTunes and/or updater software??

I just bought a brand new 30gig iPod video. I followed apple's "instructions" and installed iTunes and the iPod software off of the included cd. I then connected my iPod and it charged but itunes never recognized it. Windows can find it (it appears as an external disk drive in my computer and iPod in other places) but iTunes doesn't recognize it at all. I have tried resetting the iPod, uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes/ipod software using the install cd, i have tried downloading the latest software from apples website and installing it that way, I have tried everything but restoring the ipod because the updater software won't even work. every time I try to use it, it just says "Service Error". I really have no idea what to do. The iPod seems to work fine, it turns on, turns off, windows seems to recognize it, but iTunes won't recognize the iPod and the iPod updater software doesn't seem to work at all. The last thing I am going to try is wiping my computer harddrive (it needs it for other reasons, not just this iPod problem) and starting completely fresh with nothing or very little installed besides iTunes and the iPod software.

The article posted in the first response is a great place to start. If that doesn't work, try these out as well:

Problem with iTunes and sync'n Contacts

I'm a new user to the iPod and iTunes in general. Unfortunately I've encountered a few problems with putting contacts on my iPod. I have the new video 5th generation iPod and Microsoft Outlook 2003, however when I try and sync the contacts to the iPod - iTunes closes with the message 'iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close'. The error signature offset is '35f76ad2'. I have absolutely no idea what this means.
I have tried manually moving the contacts from Outlook to my iPod but this doesn't take the pictures with it.
I also tried installing a version of iTunes prior to 7.0.0 until I realised my iPod could only use version 7 or later.
Can someone please help - even if it's just contact information for Apple to help me out!

Restore your iPhone from a backup of your iPhone. You can restore from either your iCloud or iTunes backup depending upon what you want to do and what backups you have. To restore see:
