When you saw this dialog box, did you choose "Erase and Sync"?
If you did, your iPhone was erased, then your iTunes Library was transferred to it. If your iTunes Library was empty, your iPhone will be also.
Your previously purchased music, apps, books, and videos are still yours. You just have to download them again.

Hello I have a few questions and I need some help with my iTunes and iPod

Hello iTunes people.
I have a little problem with my iTunes. I actually almost know nothing about iTunes really. But I have had a 80 gig ipod .. ummm I think it's a iPod classic maybe. A long time ago I just downloaded iTunes. I think one of my tech friends already had put the program onto my PC so I did not even have to download it. Anyways I put my life's collection of mp3's onto iTunes and then syncs it with my iPod and it worked great. Here is my problem. I just recently bought a MONSTER PC. I have lovingly named it " ED209 " I downloaded iTunes for it and I have the most up to date version.8.1.1 is the most current version correct? Ok well here is my problem. What I want to do is I want to put everything that is currently on my iPod ONTO the iTunes library. I DO NOT want to import anything from the library or playlist or whatever you call it ONTO the iPod because there is nothing in the library. Now this is were its gets weird and possibly silly. A person I was chatting with on Facebook sort of made fun of me because she was like " Dude! Just push " Sync " But the reason I am paranoid is because THIS is the message I get....
" The iPod " Aaron's iPod " is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this iTunes library? "
HOLY COW!! That girl on Facebook was making fun of me but READ THAT. That exactly says ERASE the "iPod" and Sync with THIS library " It does not say put what is ON the iPod into THIS Library. It says it the other way around. Clear as day it says it will ERASE the " Ipod " it does not say " Fill the library with whats on your iPod "
Do I all of a sudden not understand English or something???? I know how to freaking read and from what it says is sounds a 100 percent like " we will ERASE youe iPod and put everything from this playist or library onto your iPiod" But there is NOTHING in my library? Am I mentally challenged or what?
I hope someone can help me here and I have another request. Could someone just tell me all the cool things I can do with iTunes and my iPod? I am trying to read the help files and the FAQ and whatever else Apple provides you with but it has SO MUCH crap that looks usless. I find myself reading a whole paragraph about some simple little section of s section of a section of a feature! Know what I mean. Someone give me the long and short of the neat things I can do with this stuff. I have windows Vista with a wicked computer that has like 6 gigs of ram and m iPod is a 80 GB Classic
help !!
PROTEUS

*What I want to do is I want to put everything that is currently on my iPod ONTO the iTunes library.*
1). Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you continue to use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
3). Once you are connected and your iPod is safely in manual mode there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. iTunes will only let you copy your purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
For everything else (music from CDs, other downloads and including iTunes purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
A selection of iPod to iTunes utilities:
TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod2PC Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
YamiPod Mac and Windows
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
Floola Mac & Windows
iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
4). Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
5). I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

Help with new MBP and iTunes

I need some help fast. I bought my wife a new MBP and in setting everything up we inadvertently setup a new and wrong iTunes account. We haven't transferred anything yet, I want to get this account off her computer before I bring everything from her Win 7 machine.
Can't find any specific instructions, can somebody help me out?
Thanks!
Mark

It's late so this will be rather short:
1. Make sure you update the older version of iTunes to the latest version
2. Go into iTunes Settings and Authorize iTunes with your Apple ID and Password
3. In settings, turn off Automatice sync
4. Connect your iPad and once recognized, right click the device from the left side of the the iTunes screen
5. Transfer purchases
6. You can then sync
A lot to digest and I don't have the time to walk you through every step. If you need to, google the points and you'll find lot's of information on where to find these in iTunes.

Hard drive crash need help with new iTunes load and backup files

I have looked through the posts and not found my situation.
I had my iPhone synced to a PC computer and the hard drive crashed. I had an extensive library in iTunes, but none of the music was purchased online so I can't simply download it again. It was all from CD's, many of which belonged to friends. I now have an iMac. The music I like is still on my iPhone, but not on my new iMac. When I try to sync the iPhone with my iMac it wants to delete all the music on my iPhone. Is there any way to copy the music off my iPhone first - so I can add it back into my iTunes library?

Yes, luckily I have been in this situation.
You can download a free application that will take your music from your iPhone and place it onto your Macintosh HD.
One of these should suit your needs:

Outlook syncing problem with new iTunes update

I'm concerned about syncing my iTouch again, as I have major problems from the last time:
Last week, I updated and synced my iTouch (4th gen) and the synch acted different. I was faced with "conflicts in Outlook" to review. I was doing this on the fly, and didn't really think anything of it, even though I hadn't ever been asked this before, so I went ahead without thinking. Before this, in order for my Contacts folders to not all sync together, I had to make a Contacts folder I named "iTouch Contacts." When I finished the sync, I noticed that in Outlook, my main Contacts folder now only had about 400 contacts in it (should have about 3000), and my iTouch Contacts folder had over 3000. Obviously, my iTouch had done something weird and synced differently. I knew I had some kind of duplicating mess to deal with, but just ended up moving all of the iTouch contacts to the main Contacts folder to deal with it later. In the next couple of days, I synced it again, and (again) the same "conflicts" and that began to worry me. When it was all said and done, for some reason, I saw that the iTouch Contacts folder in Outlook had 3000 again. Without thinking, I was just disgusted and deleted all those contacts. I later realized that I had deleted the majority of my contacts and that my main Outlook Contacts folder was again down to only 400. Since most of my contacts are no longer in Outlook, I can't email people from a new email, but must use a previous email and reply to them. Also, when I look at the contacts on my actual iTouch device, ALL my Outlook Contacts folders are there, even ones I have never had checked to sync with the device.
My question: How do I dare sync again...without knowing first how to get all my Contacts transferred from my iTouch to Outlook? And then how do I figure out how to sync the right folders? The recent update must have had some changes that just took over without asking me! I had even unchecked the boxes under the Info tab in iTunes on my device, so as to NOT sync contacts, but it just went ahead and did it anyway.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi lastskier
Have you browsed through the forums at all? Its worth spending a little while doing so because most problems have been experienced by others and resolved.
My recommended method for installing iTunes upgrades is:
1. Back up your iTunes library, and by this I mean locate the iTunes folder (usually in My music) and copy all of it and its contents preferably to a removeable hard drive (they are really cheap now). This is your insurance and if all else fails you have not lost your music files.
2. Download the iTunes programme from the apple website to your pc - DO NOT install online.
3. Temporarily disable any antivirus/antispy software programmes (locate the icon in the lower right hand side of your desktop and right click - you should get options to disable)
4. Run the install and reboot.
With any luck you will be up and running and the new iTunes will have found your old library and imported it. You will still have a safe copy on your removeable drive.
Conflicts with AV/antispy programmes are the most common problem with iTunes installs.
If it doesn't work and you are happy you have a back up of your music, you could try uninstalling all iTunes, iPod and QT s/w using "add/remove programs" and then running thru the steps again. However, this time you may have to get your new iTunes to find your music files on your removeable drive by plugging it in to your pc and getting iTunes to search for it.
You will have lost any library settings e.g. playlist info play count etc by going this route, but there are fancier ways of dealing with that. You can open up "my Music" folder and reimport your entire back up copy of the iTunes folder and this will preserve your old settings.
Let me know how you get on.

Need help with my iTunes on iPhone 5 and Macbook Pro

Need help with my iPhone 5 and my Macbook Pro. I was purchased some music on itunes at my mac. Some reason I deleted those music from both on Mac and iPhone 5. Today, I went to my iPhone iTunes store inside of iCloud to redownload my puchased. But those song won't able to sync back to my iTunes library on my Mac. Can anyone help me with that ??....

You've posted to the iTunes Match forum, which your question does not appear to be related to. You'll get better support responses by posting to either the iTunes for Mac or iTunes for Windows forum. Which ever is more appropriate for your situation.

New PC, new itunes, and iphone. Having issues with pairing/authorization/library transfer

Hello all,
I recently got a new PC. Before unplugging the old one, I deauthorized it from itunes. I immediately authorized the new computer. I also have cloud syncing on (for all the good it's doing me)
(HATE the new itunes btw - I find the user interface SUPER confusing and none of the itunes articles use the new version for reference).
Anyway, I must have messed up the initial sync or something. For some reason it's recognizes all of my apps, and happily adding anything I download from the phone back onto the computer - but everything else is a mess. I had to recreate my podcast subscriptions (no biggie) but it won't let me sync my music library back and forth (nor my audio books). It only seems to want to let me erase my music library on the phone with the mostly empty one on the computer. It's not recognizing the playlists from my phone at all on the PC, and today I bought some new songs on the PC and it won't let me add them to those playlists.
I even tried "transferring" back....but it's still not letting me access playlists and music libary
Any suggestions would be MOST appreciated. I'm not particularly interested in losing my entire music library that's on my phone. If I had to lose anything I guess I'd prefer to lose the songs I bought today on the PC.

Copy your whole iTunes folder from the old computer to the same location on the new one. It is trying to erase the phone because the phone is synced to the library on the old computer and does not recognize the one on the new computer. You can transfer purchases from a phone to a computer but otherwise file transfer is one direction, computer to phone.

Can any one help with new iOS 7.1 update?

Hello,
I have recently downloaded the iOS 7.1 update and it has being causing problems with the iPhone 4s. The problems are as follows;
No Wi-Fi connection all, and in full range of a connection (If and when I connect its for 10 seconds and gone again)
Battery Life depleting quickly
iPhone freezes constantly
iPhone getting extremely hot when not in use.
Is there anything that I can do that can help with this or will I have to wait for the next iOS update?

If I restore as new without the backup & everything seems to be fine, I assume I would then have to restore it from my latest backup in iTunes in order to get all (or at least most) of my data back.
From what I have read, it looks like at least the music I have on my iPhone 4S that I put there from a CD I own would not be in my backup. That is not a major problem, since it is only 1 CD.
It also seems like the iTunes backup is more complete than the iCloud backup (I do have both).
So, I should probably be restoring from that backup.
Is there anything else that is not backed up in an iTunes backup that I should consider before I do that?
When I backup in iTunes (or even in iCloud), some items not backed up?
Wouldn't I then have to re-install those items that are not in my backups?
I have a Medical app from my local ambulance operator where I have taken a ton of time to input all of my medical information going back numerous years. I just got tired of some medical person constantly asking me for information one never really makes a point of remembering. Now, I have all of that information in my iPhone 4S.
There is no way I would want to reinstall that app & re-input all of that information again.
I also put a lot of "lists" in the Notes area on my iPhone 4S.
I understand that is also something that is not backed up.
These are just 2 examples.
I also have other items that I am under the impression also are not backed up.
Losing any of that information would be a huge burden to recover.
I am willing to take a chance with some items that are not backed up to either iTunes nor iCloud.
But, knowlingly doing something that may lose that information is not something I am willing to do.
OR, am I just not understanding what is and is not backed up in iTunes or iCloud & what I could potentially lose?

Unable to sync iPhone4 with new iTunes 11 UI

Has anyone else experienced this? Just upgraded to iTunes 11 with the new UI and found myself unable to sync my iPhone4. The "iPhone" button would be next to the "Store" button but if I tried to click it (left or right click) the button simply disappeared and nothing else would happen! In addition, the entries under the "File > Devices" menu were all disabled. I found how to re-enable the left sidebar and found that the phone would then show as being connected and could be sync'd. If I switched back to the new UI, the "iPhone" button again would simply disappear when clicked. However, after switching back to the new UI, the entries under "File > Devices" were now enabled.
This problem is added to the fact that my phone's calendar has been useless (can't add/edit any entries to it and cannot see/access any of the other calendars that I had subscribed to (holidays, etc.) ever since I upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 6! I normally use my phone's calendar to sync with my business calendar so I'm missing far more than just people's birthdays!

This was a tricky one. I noticed when I connected my iPhone I could not view any of its files from within My Computer. Checked USB drivers and Apple Mobile Device was not listed under USB controllers, instead it was only listed under Imaging devices. As a result, I went to http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 and followed instructions under step #5. At it's conclusion, I am now able to seethe iPhone option next to iTunes Store in the top right corner. Hope this helps!

New itunes and iphone renamed ringtones

can anyone tell me if the renamed ringtones are still working in the new itunes,

If you've added ringtones to your iPhone (e.g. via iToner), and you've updated to 1.1.3, then they will no longer be available. Also, you will find that iToner no longer syncs to the iPhone. No doubt iToner will update their software some time soon to get around the new update.
Does this help?
