Upgrading ITunes and five songs eliminated my library

I upgraded ITunes, now the only songs showing are the five songs ITunes upgraded. I can find all my purchased songs in My Account, but how do I get them to show up (playlists too) in my Library???

in itunes hit apple-o and navigate to your itunes folder, usually in user/documents/music and choose the itunes folder to import everything again

  • Upgraded iTunes and  all songs in music folder are duplicated

    Recently upgraded to iTunes 10.1.1.4 and all songs are now duplicated. Any idea why this happened and is there an easy way to get rid of the duplicates? When I opened iTunes after the upgrade, it acted as though it was a new installation-asking questions about finding song files.

    Something went wrong with the upgrade. itunes should not have asked about finding files on an upgrade.
    For duplicates in the itunes program, sort by Date Added. Figure out which group is valid - either the oldest or newest, and delete whichever group that isn't needed. You can highlight the first and then hold the shift key to highlight the last, so you can delete the group all at once.
    For duplicate on your hard drive, use Windows Explorer and Date Created/Modified the same way.

  • How do I manually drag and drop songs from music library to iPhone 4 using iTunes 11?

    How do I manually drag and drop songs from music library to iPhone using iTunes 11?

    If you manually manage music... on iTunes 11, go to the top left corner and there will be a pull down bar. Click "show menu bar". From there, go to view, then show sidebar. Magically, it looks like the previous versions of iTunes. Took me 3 hours of trial and error and searching through forums to figure out. Tried calling Apple to have them walk me through it and they said they wouldn't help me since I don't have Apple Care. Whatever. Hope this helps!!

  • How to manually drag and drop songs from music library to iPod Shuffle using iTunes 11?

    In iTunes 10, it's simple to just drag and drop a few songs manually from the library/playlist to the Shuffle.  In iTunes 11, Shuffle has its own window.  How do you manually drag and drop songs from music library/playlist to iPod Shuffle using iTunes 11?

  • I tried to upgrade itunes and i get windows error 7

    i tried to upgrade itunes and i get windows error 7 - it says "The procedure entry point AVCFPlayerEnableHardwareAcceleratedVideoDecoderKey could not be located in the dynamic link library AVFoundationCF.dll

    Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
    Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7,now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

  • I clicked "yes" to upgrade iTunes and now it doesn't work. I get an error message stating my computer is missing MSVCR80 and then a message stating Error 7 (Windows Error 126). I've tried reloading iTunes twice. What can I do?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

    OH my god SOMEONE PLEASEE help me. I closed itunes so maybe it could work again now it looks like its never downloaded it dissapeared from my library. I went to the album it looks purchased but it doesnt have a download button. So what you basicly did is you made up a problem. You failed to help me. You stole 0,90 and still dont care to answer me back. Not community nor if there is any workers here, themselves. I wanted to support one of my favorite singers and this is what I get in return.

  • HT1473 downloaded an album from itunes and every song is out of sink with its title, HELP

    downloaded album from itunes and the songs dont match the title,help!!

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.
    The above should sort you out but the forum you wanted was iTunes > iTunes for Mac which won't have been on offer since your were reading a Windows support doc. I'll ask the hosts to move this one just in case you have follow up questions that can be answered best in there.

    Delete the songs from your iTunes library and redownload them by clicking "Purchased", under Quick Links at the top right of the iTunes store.

  • TS1362 I purchased an album from itunes and a song in the middle of the album did not download completely. So, the song obviously cannot be transferred to my ipod because the file cannot be converted. What can i do?

    I purchased an album from itunes, and a song in the middle did not download completely. All the others did. So, I obviously could not transfer that song to my ipod because the file could not be converted. What can I do?

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • I just typed in "top 40 hits in the search column in itunes, and the songs sound completely different! It doesn't even sound like the artist is singing the songs! What's up with that??

    I just searched for "top 40 hits on itunes and the songs that came up don't sound remotely like the ones i hear on the radio(not remixes) just the regular song, so what's up with that?

    They aren't the ones you hear on the radio.
    They are the same songs remade by some unknown label to make money.

    See:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    or
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
