Upgraded to 6, and have lost all my tunes, library is empty!
I upgraded to 6, and now when I open itunes, all of my songs, purchased and those I burned from CDs are gone. I repaired the permissions, removed the preferences file, and would copy the library file, but it is empty, so what is the point of that?
Where are my songs? What can I do to recover them? I first got a 'disk locked' message', but Itunes does at least open now, just all the music is gone? Please help!
Thanks,
the Lindsey's

i have pressed a one step-recovery button on my lap-top and have lost all i-tunes data. However, a record of all my purchases still remain on my account. I do not have it saved to anyother device, how can i recover lost i-tunes music already purchased?
You can re download past purchases using the same Apple ID for free > Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I bought a new laptop and have lost all my music library when installing itunes?
This will be the third Laptop that I have authorised but when I installed iTunes to it, my entire music library had disappeared, only purchased items were there. It's worked ok previously when I authorised the old Laptop so I am really confused as to where it's all gone. I spent weeks loading over 500 CD's to the library and now no longer have them to do it all over again. Someone please help!
Unless you have subscribed to iTunes Match signing into your iTunes account on a new computer only gives you access to your past purchases. You need to migrate the iTunes library from your previous computer or recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

I have upgraded iphone ios 3.1 to ios 5.1 and have lost all my contacts and can not find them on my pc. Can anyone pleeeeese help me?
If you are saying that you both have iCloud accounts and use the same icloud ID, then yes, the contacts will be deleted. The idea is that all devices using the same icloud ID are kept in sync. You need to use different IDs. You can keep the same iTunes ID so you can share the songs and apps. But use different icloud IDs.

Help !i upgraded my phone to ios and have lost all my contacts
I UPGRADED MY PHONE TO IOS AND HAVE LOST ALL MY CONTACTS !!
Same thing happened to me. From what I have read, if you sign into icloud, can you see your contacts there? If so, there is a procedure to get them back on your phone.
In my case, there are no contacts there either. Now what? -

Have you tried the usual cures such as resetting your phone or backing it up then restoring from the backup?

I upgraded to IOS5 and have lost my contacts and other app profiles - is there any way to get them back from the backup taken before the IOS5 process started?
Thanks but have tried that - When I try to restore I get a -50 error and into a loop of taking another back up. I took a copy of the back up before the IOS upgrade and have it stored on my desk top but I cannot get Itunes to restore to that back up
Any ideas how I can do this? -
I recently downloaded itunes 10.5 and have lost all my music. How do I retrieve it? Help!

shouldnt be too hard for them to not have sync as the default
Not difficult at all but iTunes is meant to be very simple to use. No one would know how to sync their music if the default was to not sync it.
many people will have an ipod that hoops up to itunes for first time and then will sync up and lose all songs
One big reason to make regular backups. -
I have an iPhone 4. I unplugged my phone during an update and have lost all pictures, text messages and videos from the last year. Is there any way to restore from a certain date to recover them?
If you have a current backup you can restore your phone to that backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766

i updated my phone and have lost all my contacts i have restored and all my apps are back but no contacts! help!
What application were you syncing your contact to before you updated? Check the settings on the info tab and sync them back.
If you were NOT syncing them to an application (Outlook or Windows Address Book on a PC, Address Book on a Mac), you can try forcing a restore from your backup again. If they don't come back, they are most likely gone. -
I performed the ios 6 update to my iphone 4s and have lost all of my contacts. How do I get them back? does this have anything to do with icloud?
Yes of corse they is, using the cloud or plug in to your PC and connect to iTunes and you'll be able to sync your items back

I have an ipod touch 4th gen, installed the latest update to iOS 6 and have lost all my music, apps etc. It also linked up with an alternate email address???? Help!
I have a similar issue happenning with my ipod touch 64GB running IOS 6.0.1. My music content is stored via itunes on my Snow Leopard macbook pro as well (and not in the cloud). The music on my ipod (which is sync'd to my macbook pro when I connect via usb) has randomly disappeared about 3 or 4 times lately, not during sync'ing and unrelated to battery charge levels. Fortunately I have been able to restore it by restarting my macbook pro then re-syncing the ipod, which it is now doing as I write, but it takes hours (for over 3000 songs). Having looked at a few other forum discussion pages, it seems this may be a bug related to IOS 6 updates and using music/itunes and podcast playing apps. The same thing has intermittently occurred with some other content such as downloaded podcasts, iplayer content and photos. Once I reconnected the ipod it synced and apparently restored the content, but I can't understand why it lost it in the first place, and its very annoying. Lets hope the reinstalling works on my ipod tonight....up to 248 of 3326 songs syncing as I write....
