Transfering songs need help

Hey all I honestly don't know if this is a topic on here already or not. don't really have time to look for it.
Anyways to the point, HDD had to be re-formatted and i lost all the music i had bought from the itunes store. I'm currently trying to transfer them from the IPOD to the itunes program but it is only taking 84/155 some of them are just not taking period.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

  • Trouble with songs. need help please!

    alright, so here's my problem.
    last week i tried to put some songs from a cd on my ipod (video 30g). when they were in my library they worked fine but now on my ipod they are not working. if i click on them nothing is happening.
    i tried to delete them from my ipod but everytime i select them and hit delete, my itunes (latest version) freeze. i did erase them once before it froze but when i looked on my ipod they were still there. also, everytime i tried to put some new songs (not from the same cd) on my ipod, they go fine in my library but when i transfer them, it says synchronizing but does nothing.
    i don't know what to do and i really hope i don't have to restore and lose everything cause i lost everything last week as my hard drive died (i don't know if it can be related tho)
    help is needed!!!
    p.s. sorry for my english :S

    thank you but i did tried the basics. after posting my question here i tried a couple of thing and realized that all i could do was a restore. so i tried a restore and when i try it, my itunes doesnt do a thing and stop working. also, the weird thing is, when i look in my cache files for the ipod, no songs is in the folders where they are supposed to be, and when i try to play some songs it just show all the information but skip the songs quickly. so it seems like the information and everythng is still in the ipod but there's no songs in it anymore. so the only thing i'm looking for is for a way to restore the ipod to its original settings without using itunes...

  • Itunes won't play music - exclamation points by all songs - need help!!

    I have been on this board several times and still can't locate the answer to allow me to play my music in Itunes. Here is my situation. If you can help, I would appreciate it.
    I have had my Itunes library stored on my external hard drive. I hadn't accessed Itunes in a while and when I did, my music is no longer being recognized by the program. All I get is the exclamation point next to each song and when I click on the song I am asked to relocate the song itself. Since getting the exclamation point no matter what I do short of relocating every song individually (over 4000 songs), I decided to call "apple cares". I had no success with them as they couldn't help.
    I have now unistalled/reinstalled my Itunes twice, I have redirected my preferences to my external drive and consolidated my library several times, I have tried to use my older less updated library on my regular hard drive only to have the same exclamation points appear.
    I am at a loss as to what I need to do. I really don't want to lose my music - imported from cds or purchased - nor do I want to spend the rest of 2007 relocating each and every song.
    If you have any suggestions, I would appreciate help. You can email me directly at [email protected]
    Thanks in advance!!!

    Thanks for replying, Please read our Operating System details before taking a guess about what 'could' be the problem...
    I think I figured it out anyway, Windows Media Player might be adding extra information that iTunes does not like, either Windows Media Player and/or iTunes 7.7.1 don't conform to ID3 v2.4 standards...
    Please fix your software, Apple. I know how you love to be unique and mock PC users with your one-sided advertisements but at least conform to the ID3 standards.

  • Renaming copied song *need help*

    I'm importing one song from a different place on my Mac, though I need an identical copy of it in iTunes, but with a different name. I drag the song in twice to iTunes for my 2 copies. I change the name of one, and it affects the other, so I can't get 2 different names. Any thoughts???
    Thanks,
    Jack

    To avoid unnecessary duplication, iTunes will not copy a File into the database twice. So what you have is two listings in the database pointing to the same file.
    So, make your duplicate in the Finder and rename it there, then copy it in.

  • Songs- need help!

    ok, guys, i know this off subject, but please help me!
    I will like to know if their is a softwear/program that takes songs, and take the words away, just leave the instrument/tune.
    If yes, can it be dowladed form the internet?
    Superman56, Colin R, D.S.... you must know some???
    Thx in advance
    Chris

    i think you have to buy the songs that way.....if they are even made like that
    my best guess is to look around and see if anyone sells cd's that are like that and you would have to go from there

  • Moved Songs, Need Help Matching them up the fast Way

    Hi,
    Recently i organised my "ITunes Music Folder" with different genre's of music to help me keep it organised because i seemed to never be able to find anything. Once i had moved all my music into various genre folders and then artist folders within them i knew what i dreaded was coming. I didn't wanna have to inport all the files again from the new location because then it would lose "The Play Count" and have ive named them in ITunes. So i have been doing this.
    Clicking on song then right clicking "Get Info" then Yes. then My Music > ITunes > Compilations > House > Artist Name > Then eventully finding the song.
    This is a extrememly slow process when you have over 2000 songs to match up and i remember a long time ago although i forgot say if your matching up a album instead of going into My Music > ITunes > Compilations > House > Artist Name again it would allready be in the last place i was at so i could just click the song so matching a album would be much faster then going through the long way.
    The problem is when i match up the song now i have to go through My Music > ITunes > Compilations > House > Artist Name every time.
    Any Advice or help is greatly Appreciated.

    Nicko102,
    There is not a fast way to match them up when you have changed the folder structure that iTunes uses to organize its database folder of iTunes songs.
    However, if you reimport them, while you will lose play count, the names you have assigned the songs in iTunes is written to the file's ID tags, and should be retained.
    Hope this helps,

  • Missing Songs - Need help

    I have about 2000+ songs in my itune after I syn with my iphone (3G, 16GB firware 2.1), I song in my ipod there are only 299 songs (I select songs and at the bottom it shows 299, I didnt count) and occupy about 8GB of storage space.

  • Photos not transferring. Need help quick

    I can transfer music and contacts to my new ipod photo but my photos do not transfer. I have checked preferences and have even tried dragging photos to the photo folder on the ipod. Nothing. I have rebooted my computer several times and reset the ipod also. Haven't tried dragging the thumbnails, but now the ipod desktop icon does not stay on the desktop long enough for me to open it.
    I am using a PowerBook G4 with Tiger, iPhoto 2 version is 2.0. In 3 days I am heading to Tasmania for a 5 month stay and was hoping to use my new ipod partly for photo storage. Any suggestions will be tried and appreciated! Thanks.

  • I DESPERATLY NEED HELP TRANSFERING SONGS FROM IPOD TO ITUNES LIBRARY

    hi my computer crashed downstairs and i need help moving all my songs from my ipod to my itunes library, on the other computer...will someone please help me?

    Hello Markatkis,
    Make sure your not connecting it to more than one PC. A new iPOd is set to "Auto Update" by default. With this setting all you do is plug the iPOd into the PC and iTUnes automaticly opens, loads all the songs it has listed in iTunes to the iPod, and after its done, ejects the iPOd.
    If you connect it to another PC tho with iTUnes on it you usually get a promtp that in short says "iPOd library linked to another PC, do you want to link to this one" if you click yes, it wipes the iPOd clean and loads only whats on that PC.
    Since your new to all of this a great place for you may be the "iPod 101" site. It will show you all the bacis ropes of using your iPOd, using iTUnes, and using them both together. http://www.apple.com/support/ipod101/

    Vera,
    Use View > View Options, and set 'Sort By" to "Manual Order."
    Then you will be able to drag-n-drop songs up and down the list.

  • I need help with transferring my itunes using my ipod

    Hi, I wanted to move itunes to my new computer so backed everything on to my ipod (old 30GB video), did that part fine but now when I transfer to my new computer there is nothing in the itunes folder, and my ipod is still almost full with all the information I transferred, can anyone help? Is it becasue my old somputer was windows xp and this one is vista?
    Thanks

    Open a Windows Explorer window so that it shows the iTunes folder that you dragged from the iPod to the computer (the one that is now on your computer). Run iTunes and select the Music LIBRARY in the sidebar. Drag the iTunes folder and drop it onto the iTunes windows (onto the main pane). iTunes should add the songs to the iTunes library.
    However, you may want to review the article, because it should have worked without doing the above. Make sure you copied the iTunes folder to the correct location on the computer.

  • I need help transferring Bootcamp (Windows XP) from my old Macbook Pro to the new one. How do I make bootable clone of Bootcamp?

    Hi I just got a new MacBook Pro I need help transferring Bootcamp (Windows XP) from my old Macbook Pro to my new Macbook Pro  Mac OS X 10.7.4  2.6 Ghz Intel Core 17. How do I make bootable clone of Bootcamp?

    you can't just move XP even if you took the hard drive and have Windows boot and function.
    Apparently there are Windows tools to sanitize the OS and strip all the motherboard drivers and services.
    Time to get a supported OS. Don't want to pay, then use 8 for the time until it goes on sale.
    There are no drivers for even Vista on 2011 and later Macs.
