what happened to my playlists? I just loaded version 11.0.4.4 and all my playlists and songs uploaded from CDs to iTunes disapeared!!!!
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library as iTunes Library (Corrupt) and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to a recent state.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

How to transfer library with play count and top 25 playlist to another itunes library?
Hi,
I would like to transfer all my music, with the play count and top 25 most played and other playlists to another iTunes library on a Mac. How would I go about doing this?What exactly are you trying to do? You already have another library on the computer and wish to add items from another library? This is not easily done and meeting all the requirements you have posted. While it is possible to transfer play count I think it is one of the things that requires Applescripting knowledge.
If you are just wanting to move a library from one place to another that is possible, though still tricky because you start encountering user permissions. -

I sync'ed my iPod and lost my playlists on the iPod and Genius appears. How do I get the playlists back on my iPod?
All you can do is restore from backup if yu have one. If you backed up to iTunes make sure that autosyncing is turned off. Otherwise when you connect the iPod to the computer the backup with you data might be overwritten. To turn off go to iTunes>Preferences>Devicesand check the box that says "Prevent iPods...".

When I download music into Itunes on my PC, every song is transferred into a specific playlist. Twice now when I have opened up Itunes, all the recent songs that have been moved into playlists have been deleted by Itunes. I now have to go back and figure out which songs are missing and re-add them. It is driving me crazy. I have 10,000 songs and now have no idea which ones are missing and which ones have been retained.
Please help. Does anyone else have this problem?Hi TRuss08,
Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like songs are missing from iTunes on your PC, and need to be re-added. I know that can be a frustrating situation.
The tips in this article may help the process go a little smoother:

I just recently downloaded the newest iTunes and moved all my purchased and already owned music to another PC. Every since I did that I cannot get my iPad 1 to even be recognized in iTunes. I have Authorized the PC in iTunes, but my iPad still will not allow me to sync. I'm at a loss...PLEASE HELP!!!
1. You need to authorize iTunes on the new computer with your Apple ID.
2. Make sure you turn off auto sync in iTunes
3. Connect your iPad to iTunes via USB and when it is recognized, right click on the device from the Device list on the left of your iTunes page and choose transfer purchases.
4. Once purchases are transfered and you have authorized the iTunes account, you should be able to sync. -
I copied my entire iTunes folder to my new Mac and now new playlists won't sync to my iPhone.
Hi. I recently installed a new hard drive to my Macbook Pro and as I wanted a clean start decided not to restore from Time Machine. I just copied the entire old iTunes folder into my new music library. iTunes itself functions normally but it won't sync new playlists to my iPhone 5.
I had similar problems with syncing my iPhoto library to my iPhone through iTunes but I rebuilt the iPhoto library and that seemed to fix it. Is there a way to rebuild the iTunes library? I used this document:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
and was given error code -50 saying it was unable to import the playlists.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Upgraded iTunes and lost apps, playlists, and songs
I recently had to update my version of iTunes so I could update my iphone. A week or so after I did this I went onto iTunes and it looked different, all my apps were gone, my playlists were gone, and I lost all songs after 2010. I had a playlist for each of my family members ipods and a seperate one for my phone as my phone doesn't hold much. When I plug one of them in it says if I try to sync it will lose the stuff on the devices. I was reluctant to do this in the first place as this happened to me years ago with an update. I have since done it a few more times with no issues. But in order to update my phone it said I had to. I have about had it with apple products and hearing things that happen to others information and losing it all. I am tired of the constant asking for updates and upgrades. If there is anyone that could help me I would appreciate it.
Check and see if you have a folder named Previous iTunes Libraries.
Then use these directions to try and open them to see if the most recent one has all your meta data.

Hey Everyone,
My apartment was broken into and my laptop was stolen which had my entire iTunes library. I have it all on my iPod Classic now which was with me at the time.
What do you suggest as the best tool to transfer the music FROM my iPod to to my new computer? I know there are some programs out there, what have you had success with?
My most important question is, is there a way to retain my library and especially playlists as it is (instead of copying over a massive bunch of songs)? Most of my music is from music blogs, mixtapes and underground artists so most of it cannot be found in the iTunes store.
Thanks for any help guys!

I used to drag and drop music loaded from CD's from the Recently Added folder to a Playlist on my iPods Classic. Can't see how to do this with new iTunes version. Probably need to sync somehow but when I checked on Sync it warned me it would wipe out my iPod contents. Don 't know why Apple makes something that used to be simple so difficult. Can't even figure out how to display both my library and iPod contents on same screen.
Hey joshuafromisr,
If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

or here:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

I recently added Maverick to my Safari and downloaded a book from the library to Digital Editions 2 on my computer. When I downloaded the book to my Kobo, Kobo would not allow me to open it saying it was owned by Digital Editions and saying something about my password. Do I need to change to Digital Editions 3??
Hey! I had the same problem you did just today when I was trying to get my second iPhone to sync. What you need to do with music or anything extra that you doing you have to creat a second playlist or picture or anything that you would like to use, so that you can add to the second device that you are going to be using. I am not sure if that will help but it helped me out a lot!! Good luck!

Hi everyone,
this is my first ever post on a dicusion board so lets see...
i would like to know how to, if it is possible... to organise my songs of a playlist to show my most recently added songs (to my playlist, not library) at the top and so on.
all of my music has been on the mac for a while so it orders is on date added to LIRBRARY and not when i added it to my playlist.
i want to see my recently added songs of my playlist first.
is this possible and if so can someone help me please!
Thanks
MezHi Mez,
Are you talking about a regular playlist, not a smart playlist?
If you drag a song to playlist to add it, the song will be added at the end of the list.
So to reverse the order and have the most recently added song first, just select the playlist and display it in list view. Click the triangle in the header row of the leftmost column showing the numbers and revert the play order.
have fun

Freezing and resetting solution, playlists the culprit, take a look Apple
Hi there, I've had a major issue with my 160gb ipod classic from day 1.
I've got a 140g music library on my PC and I've not been able to sync it to the ipod because of freezing and resetting problems.. until today.
When I first tried to sync my whole music library the ipod crashed as soon as I disconnected it. I had to restore the ipod and soon learned to sync my music in 10gb chunks. Only trouble was the ipod would work fine as long as I only synced 70-80gb of music, which is half the ipod's capacity. If I tried to add any more music the ipod would eventually go into the freezing and resetting loop and I'd have to restore it and start again.
I know other users on here have had similar problems. Firmware 1.1 and itunes 7.6 did not fix the issue for me. I know that my mp3 files are not the problem because if I split my music library into two 70gb chunks I could sync either chunk without problems, it was only when I tried to sync them all...
Through lots of trial and error, such as reinstalling OS, reinstalling itunes, rebuilding library, scanning mp3 files for errors I have eventually found out what was causing my problem.
I have 100s of pretty complex smart playlists, they are heavily nested and dependant on other playlists. I've got them all organised into folders for easier navigating. This was one of the reasons I couldn't wait for the ipod classic to come out because my playlist folders would at last be recognised on the ipod. I recently added a pretty big playlist tree for playing songs from a given year and noticed that itunes got even more sluggish than usual!
I looked at my library file and it had grown to nearly 100mb. As an experiment I backed up my library file first than deleted all of my playlists. The size of the library file reduced to 34mb. I decided to try and sync more music onto my ipod without the playlists... and would you believe it I've been able to sync my whole music libary to my ipod for the first time - no freezing and no resetting!
I would hazard a guess that the ipod classic firmware currently has an issue syncing lots of complex, nested playlists. I've fed this back to apple and hope they can come up with a solution. I hope it's not an issue related to the reduced size of the RAM in the new ipods, otherwise there will never be a solution!
As it stands I'm gonna really simplify my playlists and keep my fingers crossed. I love playlists, they're a massive part of the whole ipod experience for me so scaling them back will be a real trade off but if it stops the resetting problems I'll have to do it. This is working for me so far so good luck to everyone else who has been having similar problems.

thank you so much for this information. I can not tell you, how helpful your posting is.
I had exactly the same problem, and I did follow your instructions - and for the first time in almost 3 month (and after hours and hours spent on my computer to try to resolve this problem), I am able to utilize the full capacity of my 160 GB iPod Classic.
It is very unfortunate, that I am currently not able to utilize my Folders and Playlists (just like you, I have hundreds of them which are a huge part of the iPod Experience), but at one point, my iPod was no longer able to start up and got stuck in a 're-boot' loop. After removing my most complex smart playlists, the problem disappeared (I did not remove them from iTunes, but I no longer synch them to my iPod).
So again, thanks for posting this information, and thanks for contacting Apple. I really hope, that this issue will be resolved in the next Firmware release.
FYI for anybody else who might read this post : Using the Tinker Tool (free download) makes it very easy to monitor/view the hidden files on your iPod.
