Song dissapeared from my iPhone and iTunes account

I recently purchased an Album for my kids (Madagascar 2) and have been listening to it near daily on my iPhone. There is one song in particular that they love (The Traveling Song) that could only be purchased by buying the entire album. For some reason when I went to play the song yesterday it was gone. It was gone from the album, recently played, song lists- everything. I tried to sync with my computer and it's missing from my entire iTunes account. The rest of the album is there- the songs are listed in order with #2 missing. It just goes from #1 to #3. I don't want to have to repurchase and entire album for one song- and I shouldn't since I have already purchased it. Can anyone help me figure out what happened?

If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Since I have an iPhone and iTunes account can I open a me account or am I outa luck?

Since I have an iPhone and iTunes account can I open a me account or am I outa luck??

By "me" do you mean a MobileMe account? If so, then you can't as MobileMe is going to be terminated at the end of June. What you should look at is an iCloud account.

I purchased a iPhone from a individual, so, it has all his information as far as signing into iTunes...I want to change the Apple ID/e-mail on my iPhone and iTune account without loosing the current information/settings on my iphone.

Everyone that has or had a iPhone, if they did not buy from the dealer, they purchased it from a individual...in most cases, the phone has to be unlocked unless it's being used with the same carrier as the seller. My question is, when you purchase the phone from a individual and it has been unlock and has the seller's information...e-mail/Apple ID information for iTunes..so I can't purchase anything from the apple store because I don't have his password...I was wondering how do I change that without resetting it to the original settings, is there any way I can purchase from the iTune Store with my own Apple ID. Since he does not own this phone anymore, there should be a way to change that....I am just wondering...HELP?
I sold my first iPhone, it was unlocked, and the guy that purchased my phone, set up it so he could use his own Apple ID, but, I never asked how he did that, because I did not think at the time I would purchase another iPhone... anyhow, does anyone have the answer...please advise...thanks in advance...

Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in using your ID.

I have an Iphone and Itunes account already, can I set up my boyfriends new iphone on the same computer?

Please can you help - I have an i Tunes account and an iPhone, my boyfriend has just got an iPhone, but needs to set it up and create an account. Can we do this with one comuter between the two of us?

Does your boyfriend not have his own computer? Reason being, the iPhone syncs with ONE computer at a time. Thus, he he tries to sync with any other computer(after setting up on yours), ALL iTunes content will first be erased from his phone.
If he doesn't have his own computer, setup a separate computer login on your computer. Let him use that login & his own iTunes account. No chance your data will be intermingled, and if things don't work out, all you have to do is delete the account .

Iphones and itunes accounts International questions

I have a US itunes account. I also have a UK itunes account. My old iphone is connected to my US itunes account. My mobile me subscription is a US-based subscription.
I am going to be based in Egypt and have a new mobinil iphone. Do I need to set up another itunes account? It would be better if I could continue using my US itunes account and all the stuff that I've bought through it on my new Egyptian iphone.
Furthermore, with mobile me, I use the ical (as does the rest of my family). However I now also have a googlemail account for work and use google calendars. Is it going to be possible to sync all to the new iphone. Can anyone suggest resources that will tell me how to do this?
At home I'm on a MacBook Pro. At work on a PC.
Thanks for your suggestions.

The terms of use of the iTunes Store prohibit using it from outside of the country of the Store, and there is no iTunes Store in Egypt, only an App Store. So if you're going to be living in Egypt, then speaking from the standpoint of what's allowed (as opposed to what's technically possible, though indications are that Apple is taking technological steps to prevent access to a given country's iTunes Store from outside the country), you will not be able to use the iTunes Store - that is, you will not be able to purchase music, videos, etc. - in Egypt unless and until such time as Apple is able to open an iTunes Store there. But you will be able to continue to use content purchased from the US and UK iTunes Stores and will be able to sync that content to your new iPhone.
To get applications for your iPhone that you haven't already obtained, you will need to open a new account in the Egyptian App Store.
Regards.

Iphone and Itunes account

This is my problem and forgive me if it's been asked before but I'm getting old and have no patience to scour the internet.
I have 6 kids, my wife, and myself ALL with iphones. We also have various apple devices in the house including ipads, ipad minis, and imacs. I guess we are poster children for Apple, who would have guessed it since I was big time into microsoft based computers.
1st question: How can I ask Apple to increase the amount of devices that itunes is currently on? I think they allow 10 devices and just recently my daughter got an Iphone 5s and told me that there was some error message stating that there were too many devices associated with the account so had to delete some devices to accomodate her new phone. How can I increase the number so that I don't have to constantly log in and dissassociate a device?
2nd question: I notice that there is a way for my texts that I do via imessage to show up on other peoples phones if they go into their settings and push certain buttons. Will I be able to make this not happen if I make a new icloud account? A new Itunes account? Which account makes it so that my imessage can be seen across our many Apple devices? I have my own separate ICLOUD account but we all share the Itunes account.
3rd question: In the same token as question 2 above, When I make a text and in the box where I can put a persons name I notice that it will try to autofill the name that I am attempting to input. The only problem is that there are names of people that aren't even on my phone!!! I'm assuming that they are being pulled out of my 6 kids phones and my wife so that I have a bajillion of names I have to work through to find the one name I need!!! Talk about a headache. So just like question 2 which do I have to change so I don't have my kids looking at all my information (and no I'm not hiding anything) and me looking at theirs? Is it the ICLOUD or ITUNES account that is syncing all our contacts into a giant smorgasborg of names and numbers?
ps. what I mean by ITUNES account is the Apple ID.
We share Apple ID's but I have a separate Icloud account.

1. I thought only 5 devices was the limit for itunes. However I don't think you can ask Apple to up the limit.
2. This happens because you are sharing apple id for imessage - on all the devices - go to settings - message - send&receive/ start a new conversation - remove or uncheck the apple id.
3. For contacts that usually has to do with icloud - but I can't give you a positive answer for this one, maybe someone in the community can provide a better answer.

I want every song deleted from my iPhone and it simply cannot be done

I have tried every method I can think of. I went to Settings, Usage, and deleted all music from there. But 440 songs remained somehow. I turned off iTunes match. I turned it back on and had it show only songs on the device. I swipe an artist or album, press the delete button, but it does not disappear. I am stuck with 440 songs on my phone that I cannot ever get rid of short of an entire restore.

Well, I'm not sure I ever solved my original problem, but I'm back to square one now. At one point, with iTunes Match turned off, I was able to delete music off my iPhone to the point where the player showed no music. But even then, Settings/About showed 47 songs and when I plugged it into iTunes, it appeared as if there were still 400+ songs on the phone and there was still some orange on the bar in the bottom of iTunes (or whatever color music is) indicating that it thought there was still a few MBs of music on there.
But, after several resets (not restores) and many times toggling off/on iMatch, all my music AND playlists now show up on my phone. I can live with that.
Unfortunately, the very original problem that I never mentioned here - the reason I wanted to wipe all the music off and start over - was not solved. I have one album identified so far where all the songs get cut off 30 seconds early. And that is still happening even after my big delete and re-load fiasco. But that is a discussion for a different thread.
Thanks for the input all!

Why was Hear Me Shout by AFK removed from my iphone AND itunes

Purchased the Killionaire ep a while ago and Hear Me Shout is no longer on my iPhone 5. It's still in my itunes library on my computer but my computers broken and i cant add it from my brothers computer. Can someone help locate it or let me know why it's gone

Looks like that track was removed, and that would have almost certainly been the choice of AFK or the record company. If you can get access to your computer's hard drive, pulling it out of the computer and connecting it to your brother's computer, then you can get the track file and use some other copy of iTunes to sync it back to your iPhone. You'll need to read this:

Restore from previous backup, be sure use the same iTunes and account you used to store your stuff into your device.

iTunes Match is not sharable across Apple IDs. The best way to get the music on her iPad is to leave hers signed into her Apple ID on the iTunes Store and sync via USB.

How do I tranfer my songs and apps from my iphone to Itunes 11?

I have just downloaded itunes 11 on a new computer, which has no music or apps on it. I would like to transfer all my songs etc from my iphone to this new Itunes. It is new so this itunes works differently to other versions!!!

- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

Hi, just updated hubby's iPhone 4 and all of his music has disappeared from the iPhone and from the iTunes library! He does have music still stored on his iPod, but can't get it from the library on his iPod back to phone or itunes. technophobe help pls!

and all of his music has disappeared from the iPhone and from the iTunes library! Luckily he does have music still stored on his iPod, but I can't get it from the library on his iPod back to the phone or to itunes.Please help, but technophobe so put it in simple english please!

Sounds like the music you had on your phone was not the same music on his computer. The iPhone/iPod touch is not designed to be a storage device. When you sync with a computer that doesn't have your music, it deletes your music from your phone.
Was this music you purchased from iTunes? if so, and you are in the US, tap on itunes app, tap updates, tap purchased and tap on the cloud icon to get each song back. If you're not int he us, get iOS5 update later this week and do the same.
But you need to move your itunes library to his computer. Create a user account on his macbook pro for you. From your external drive backup, load your itunes library on it. Then sync as usual! (Don't tell me you don't have a backup for your computer!)

HT1473 I have some music on my ipod that I want to put in iTunes so I can listen it it on my iPad. The two devices share an Apple ID and iTunes account. So I do I get the music from the ipod to the iTunes account t?

This is all just a partial answer since details will depend upon how you want to do it.

Commercial software utility for transferring songs from i-device to Mac - http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - just media purchased from iTunes Store
You'll need to get it all onto one iTunes collection on your Mac Pro, then sync the devices to that. iTunes only lets you transfer purchases from a device, otherwise you have to use third party software.
I guess you could also look into getting iTunes Match.

Hi all - any idea how to download songs from an old AOL iTunes account - have updated to Apple ID which is fine for new songs but didn't realise this wouldn't include the old songs. Have a 1st gen ipod with the original purchases on if that helps

....... is there a way for me to get my old music library (which was controlled by my dad's apple ID) onto my new mac, but from that point on, start using my own apple ID for purchases?........
Yes, once the content is in iTunes on your computer, just click it to play and authorise your computer to play it by entering your Dad's ID and password.
Log into your own account and start purchasing your own content which will then be added to the existing content.
