Updated itunes-accidentally deleted borrowed music from other itunes

I updated my itunes settings by changing manual updates to automatic. In doing this I accidentally deleted music on my ipod that I obtained from friends' itunes. Is there any way to salvage the lost music?

That music is gone but if your friend still has the music on their iTunes library you should be able to get it back that way.

  • Why did the latest update delete my music from my phone and laptop?

    I updated my iphone with the new ISO and it also updated iTunes. Some where during the process it deleted my music from my Iphone and my music folder on my laptop. Is there a solution to this problem? Right now I am not very happy with either of these applications. Not only that it add stuff to my iphone that I will never use and can not delete it from the iphone.

  • Ive had a lap top from a friend, she cleared everything off it but ive downloaded itunes and all her music has appeared in the itunes library. How can i delete her music from the itunes library?

    ive got a laptop from a friend, she cleared everything off it. ive downloaded itunes and for some reason all her music has appeared in the library. How do i delete her music from the itunes libary so i can add my own music?

    In iTunes, select the music you want to delete (⌘+a to select all) and hit Delete on your keyboard.
    Also delete the music files in Finder. Also make sure you have your own Apple ID and iTunes account and logged in.

  • HT201272 I accidentally deleted an album from my iTunes library and now that i want to re download it is saying that it has already been purchased but i don't have it how do i get the album back?

    I accidentally deleted an album from my itunes library and i want to buy it again but itunes is saying that i have already purchased it but i don't have it in my library. How do i buy the album again?

    Sorry, but audiobooks cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

    the best way would be to copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder) from <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music on your Mac to the external, then launch iTunes while holding the option (⌥) key, click on choose library when prompted, and select the iTunes folder on the external.

    that tells iTunes where to put new additions to your library, not where the content currently is.

  • HT1386 how do i delete music from my ipad? I have deleted the music from my itunes but when I sync it does not delete off my ipad

    How do I delete music from my ipad? I have deleted the music from my itunes but when I sync it wont come off my ipad.

    If you don't want to delete too much then you can do it directly on the iPad. You can either swipe across track names and you should get a delete button, or on the album or artist selection screens you can press and hold an album or artist and you should then get an 'x' on its top corner which will delete the album or artist if you tap it.
    If you want to delete more then it may be quicker to connect the iPad to your computer, and on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes under the iPad device you should see a Music section (if you don't see the content types listed then click the arrow next to the iPad's name) - select that and on the right-hand side you should see a list of the music that is on your iPad, and you can then select and delete them.

  • ITunes deletes all music from my iPhone 6 when I sync

    Just now when I tried to add some new music to my Iphone 6 (iOS 8.1.3) the songs appeared greyed out, but won't actually copy. When I hit the Sync button, steps 1-5 happened in a matter of seconds and then all the music (about 100gb) went offline - showing the ! next to each track. Further Sync attempts did the same super-fast 1-5 steps without actually doing anything.
    This is not the first time this has happened, and it takes over an hour to copy all the files back to my phone. Please help!

    Howdy Luna527,
    You’ll have have change the Sync Music settings in iTunes, to delete the music from your iPhone and stop it from being synced back on to it when you connect it to your MacBook, as shown in the article linked below.
    Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB - Apple Support

  • ITunes deletes all music from CDs from my iPhone

    I recently purchased a new iPhone 6. I transferred all my apps, photos, music etc to the new phone and everything appeared fine. However every time I sync the phone with iTunes all of my music that was not purchased through iTunes (e.g. CDs that I imported into iTunes) gets deleted from my phone. However it does not show up as deleted until I try to play it, at which point my phone skips through all the songs showing a red square next to them. I have iTunes set up to sync my entire music library. The only way I know how to get all the songs back is to delete all music from the phone each time I sync with iTunes and let iTunes copy everything back to my phone (and avoid syncing with my PC unless I really have to). Once re-synced everything is fine until I sync the phone with iTunes again at which point all my music other than iTunes purchases are removed from my phone.

    I have had the same problem for two months and have tried many different suggestions with no luck. Have you been given any answers from apple?

  • HT201317 If I accidentally delete a video from my Ipad, can I find it somewhere else?

    I am new to the ipad/iphone world and I accidentally deleted a video from my ipad. Can I retrieve it from anywhere?

    If you have your ipad backed up, you can restore it (You'd need to make sure your backup predated your deletion).

    They aren't supposed to.

    Photostream when enabled will only add photos from the camera roll that were taken post photostream activation. (Photostream does not currently share video)
    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
    If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • Accidentally deleted Purchased Music playlist

    I accidentally deleted Purchased Music playlist, no idea really how, bad computer day. Any suggestions on how to get it back? Without poking through my entire library to load purchases.

    Ok, what about how with the last Itunes upgrade, it deleted all my purchased music from personal CD's! Is Itunes only designed to play music from Apple? I thought it was designed more like Windows Media Player and that any music purchased on the computer would play. I have my ghost playlists still listed in Itunes, but no songs because they have been deleted. My Iphone has all the music, but I can't transfer them to Itunes. The sync only goes from computer to device. Any one here about Senuti? Is it trustworthy?

  • Accidentally deleted purchased music

    I accidentally deleted 12 songs from a purchased album.  I have looked for the files in icloud and the left column tells me 13 songs are available, but in the right hand side downloads column, only one song shows (which is the one I have already).  I have searched in finder and the files are no longer their either.  How can I re-download them when they won't show up?

    Hi David,
    1. Buy another song, as previously mentioned (iTunes will recreate your purchased folder automatically)
    2. Within iTunes: go to your entire music library (make sure the "Kind" column is displayed, the one that shows whether your songs are formatted in MP3, AAC, Protected AAC, etc.)
    3. in the iTunes search field type: protected
    4. all of your purchased music should pop up > select it all and drag and drop it all into your newly recreated "Purchased" folder.
    note: if you have any drm free songs this method will obviously not work for those particular songs, and whatever song you purchase to recreate your purchased folder will end up twice in that folder.
