If i remove itunes and reinstall. what happens to my music & playlists.?. Thanks
Hello danieljoseph57
Nothing, iTunes Store purchases or songs imported from CDs are saved in your My Music folder by default and aren't deleted by removing iTunes. Though it is a good idea to back up your iTunes files before any troubleshooting.

Can I remove Itunes from my computer totallty abnd reinstall it without losing my media?
Do a backup of your iTunes library files first to a external hardisk. (ie all your music files)
Go to this Apple download for iTunes 9.2.1,
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1056
You just need to download and re-install.
If your iTunes is earlier than 9 series, the library folder location need to be changed.
or let me know your iTunes version and I sent you the website
I wouldn't recommend the Latest iTunes 10.5.2, if you are not using iPod Classic 160GB late 2009 version. -

I uninstalled iTunes on my old computer but first installed and copied my songs over to my new computer. When I deleted iTunes from old computer, iTunes quit working on new computer. What do I do?
One has nothing to do with the other.
What is or is not happening on the new computer in regards to iTunes. We cannot offer assistance without specifics of the issue. -
Had to remove itunes from my computer to reset the computer. Now I'm having problems syncing my iphone with the computer. Computer is saying it wants to download updates to the phone but that will delete things I downloaded straight from the phone. Help!
iTunes thinks you have a new computer because you restored the OS. Open iTunes and authorize it to the same account you have on the iPhone. Did you restore your iTunes content from a backup after resetting your computer? Have you been syncing regularly with the computer, and does the iTunes library on the computer contain your apps, music and videos? If so just sync and your content will be removed then restored.
If you have not hopefully you have now learned something. You can recover apps and purchased songs by connecting the phone, without syncing, and choose "Transfer purchases..." from the File menu. -
Will all my music be deleted if I remove itunes from my computer?
I had problems with an Ipod shuffle, so I took it back. But before I did my itunes started acting up. Now some of my songs and playlists dissapeared, but they are all in my music folder. Now I can't burn any cds and I have double files of itunes and music. Will all my music delete if I remove itunes completely and reinstall it again? Please advise anyone.
I'm not sure if this will help you any, but i had my itunes deleted from my computer the other day. When i re-installed it (about 30 mins ago) and plugged in my i-pod my library loaded, no problems.
I suppose so long as your music is saved to the hard-drive deleting the program that plays it and re-installing it shouldnt be a problem. -

I am not good with computers. I am trying to get my iTunes onto this new laptop but it says I am only allowed to have it on 5 computers and I must take it off one to ut it on this new laptop. Problem is, apart from my iPad, I have lost one laptop and two have been broken beyond repair so I am unable to take it off! Anyone any ideas? I have tried to get iTunes support but cant get past the "date of purchase" as I can only guess when I bought my ipod (2009)
Hang on...
You can only authorise the songs you purchase from the iTunes Store to play on five computers.
You can download and install iTunes (the iTunes programme) onto as many computers as you wish.
Two different things.
Assuming therefore, that your problem is that you have authorised five computers, but now no longer have some of them, you need to de-authorise all your computers and then re-authorise the computers you still have.
To de-authorise your computers, go to your account in the iTunes Store and look for the Deauthorise All button. -
I would like someone to help.
Why would it?
Not sure what you are trying to do.
Your playlist, music,vids,etc are on your computer, NOT on Apples servers.
Your content will only be where you put it.
Maybe I am misunderstanding your question. -
HT1923 How do I remove iTunes from Windows 8 computer
How do I completely remove iTunes from a Windows 8 computer
Hello mjons79,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420
To deauthorize a computer
Open iTunes.
From the Store menu, choose Deauthorize This Computer. (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Deauthorize.
Remember to deauthorize your computer before you sell it, give it away, or get your computer serviced. Also, make sure you deauthorize your computer before you upgrade your RAM, hard disk or other system components, or reinstall Windows. If you do not deauthorize your computer before you upgrade these components, one computer may use multiple authorizations.
Best of luck,

iTunes won't install everything it needs to run. I remove it from my computer and reinstall it and it keeps saying it. I am using Windows 7 and the latest update from iTunes.
What does the error message say when you install iTunes and it fails?

I am suddenly unable to update or download apps on my iphone 3G. It says "the download will be available after you log in to itunes from your computer." I never had to do that before. Even when I do log in from the computer, the download still doesn't work. So what's going on? Why would I need to go the computer to download an app to my phone? That defeats the whole purpose of having the phone, which is to do stuff when you are not at the computer!@!@ Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks.
- Try a reset. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Nework Settings. You will have rejoin networks
- Go to Settings>Store and sign out of account and sign back ino
Do you have a very slow wif connection on the iPod?
Have you tied connecting to another network? -
put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?
i just purchased a file that had videos in it. i put them in the itunes library on my pc where i first downloaded them. i was able to transfer them to my other pc, a laptop, through my home network. i am now trying to get them on my mac pro desktop and my ipad2. my mac pro can see the other computers on my home network but i cannot get it to connect to them. i know the operating systems are different but was hoping i could transfer pictures and files from pc to mac this way. haven't been able to get it to work yet. the videos i am trying to get my mac to see came in a folder with both mac and pc versions. i thought if i got the videos i purchased into itunes that i would then be able to get them to my mac pro and my ipad2. i am new to mac/apple and have always been pc-centric so trying to marry it all has been difficult. i speak pc pretty well but am just learning apple. am i trying to do things that are not possible? i sure could use a knowledgable friendly soul to walk me through my issues of having pc and mac on the same network. i have been able to get all computers and ipad to print on my network. thanks.
