So my 32gb touch just deleted all my music

So I have a 32gb touch i purchased in spet. of 08. Due to an extremely frustrating issue with my computer, itunes will not open. As a result, since I have purchased my touch nearly five months ago, I have been purchasing musoc using itunes right on my touch. Yesterday, while in the midst of downloading a new album, it would appear the touch deleted all of the music I have since purchased. Now as a result of not being able to open itunes, I have been able to back up any of this music. Long story short, my question is whether I can get any of the music back without repurchasing. Thanks in advance.

Apple sends you an email receipt whenever a piece of music is purchased; if you have that receipt, at least you have the foundation for contacting about the issue. Realize, however, that this might involve sending lots of emails and sitting on their telephone support line. If you have an Apple store nearby, a Genius Bar may prove more responsive.
There's another "option", though it can't be detailed in this forum.

  • ITunes 12 just deleted all my music on my iPod touch 5

    I have and iPod touch 5 32 GB, running iOS 8.2. I plugged it into my computer running itunes 12. i added an album (which is what i do every once in a while. hey, i like to update my preference in music which I'm sure everyone else does.) so after it adds the music against each and every song theres the   sign indicating that that song isn't there on my iPod. i go through my list and sure enough, its there against all my songs. I don't sync my music, i manage it manually. i unplug my device and sure enough, there's nothing there. any solutions? i had about 2000 songs (i know it's not a lot but i have a very specific taste in music.) my only option seems to be painstakingly tracking down all my music again and adding it. why would iTunes do this? it's never done before.

    Just create and new ID

    To use that ID on the iPod go to Settings>Store and sign our and sign back in.

  • IOS 4.2 installation just deleted all my music

    Now I am syncing again, but why? What about time lost? I just upgraded, left the office and then realized in the elevator my iPhone is empty of music. Great job on the sys update Apple!

    It's still completely inexcusable. The music may still be on our computers where we can re-install everything, but iPhone updates shouldn't delete the music from our iPhone. This happened to me this morning. I synced (which installed the latest software upgrade) and left the house for a trip not realizing that my music was gone. Got on the road and ready to play some tunes, and everything was gone. Now I'm stuck for days on a trip without access to my music. There's no excuse in this.

  • I have an ipod touch and i just bought a new laptop, because i lost mine. i try to sync the music in the itouch to my new laptop but it asks me if i want to delete all my music before syncing  what should i do?

    i have an ipod touch and i just bought a new laptop, because i lost mine which has all the data of my itouch. i try to sync the music in the itouch to my new laptop but it asks me if i want to delete all my music before syncing  what should i do?

    You should use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new computer.
    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.
    The ipod will sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase teh content from the ipod.

  • Ipod touch just lost all wi-fi capabilities. full new ipod restore did nothing to change it, can't retype passcodes etc because it does not even find any wireless network to join. thoughts?

    ipod touch just lost all wi-fi capabilities. full restore as new ipod did nothing to change it. I cannot enter pass codes etc because there are no wi-fi networks found to join, despite other apple devices finding my wireless just fine, all sitting at same desk (and the airplane mode is off). thoughts?

    Is this your problem?
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    This is frequently a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My iPod just randomly deleted all my music, but I no longer have the computer where I synced it to. Can I still get my purchased tracks if I download iTunes on another computer?

    If for some reason you failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( not good), then you can redownlaod some itunes content in some countries:

    Slightly less radical would be to uncheck the "Sync Music" button on the Music tab or choose new songs to sync to it

  • My iphone just deleted all of my future calendar events and I am unable to retrieve them via icloud or anything else???

    My iphone just deleted all of my future calendar events and icloud and any other method has failed to bring them back...any help would be great!

    Have you checked that all of the calendars were checked, so they displayed? In the Calendar app, select "Calendars" at the bottom and make sure they are all checked. In the IOS Settings, make sure the right accounts are there.

  • My iphone has just deleted all my contacts without any explanation. Any help?

    Hello,
    My iphone 4 version 5.0.1 has just deleted all my contacts without any explanation. Suddently my girlfriend called and I could only see her number, not her name.
    I went to contacts and there was nobody in there!!! Even more, there are also no contacts on my ipad mini!!!! That's weird. What's happening?
    I have gone to www.icloud.com and although there are some contacts, contacts are not synced with the latest updates, I also don't know why.
    The most important thing in a phone are its contacts! I thought that apple was providing a complete backup solution, but I am afraid it is not reliable.
    What can I do? What can Apple offer to me?
    Is there a way of restoring an icloud copy directly from the iphone? I have thought on restoring and updating to ios7 and ask for icloud to put my backup copy of today in the morning, but it is possible that icloud does another copy and rewrites the 7am working copy. I have disconnected wifi in order to avoid a copy on icloud without contacts.
    Thank you very much in advance for your help.
    Sincerely,
    Jordi

    Hi Jordi,
    I have the exact same problem and judging by the other posts we are not alone. The one thing that seems to be lacking is any official word or support from Apple - a "bury the head in teh sand" strategy appears to be the chosen response from one of the worlds biggest brands.
    I took it to my Apple store and they were about as much use as chocolate over gloves and told me "this can happen sometimes"???? Seriously, this from an Apple Genius!!??!?!?
    I have not had any joy with iCloud back up so I'm afraid I cant offer any help.
    I will be going to Twitter and Facebook to try to get some action from Apple so I suggest we all do the same and create a noise that Apple cannot ignore....

  • My iPhone 4 has just deleted all my messages & won't let me receive or send texts?

    My iPhone 4 has just deleted all my messages & won't let me receive or send texts?

    There is no way possible for your iphone to delete message by itself.
    If your having issue with text - contact your cell phone provider as texting is a carrier feature.

  • I just deleted all my photos off my i phone and didn't gain any memory

    I just deleted all my photos off my i phone and didn't gain any memory

    If the photos were in your camera roll when you last backed up, restoring the backup should recover them.  Restoring an iCloud backup requires first erasing your phone.  If you have any newer data on your phone since the backup that you want to keep, you'll need to save that first.  Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup.  Sign into your iCloud account and choose your last backup to restore to.
    Make sure you phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this may take some time to finish.

  • I tried to get a song off my icloud beta on my ipod touch and it deleted all my music...why?

    I downloaded a song from the ipod touch itunes store, but it wouldn't show up in my library.  I found it under the purchased music section in itunes and it had a cloud next to it.  It also was listed under the not on this device tab.  So I clicked the cloud on my ipod touch 4th gen and it downloaded but then deleted all the music in my library.  Has this happened to anyone else???
