What did iTunes do?

I downloaded iTunes and indicated when installing that I absolutely did NOT want it as the default player, and did NOT want it to take over everything
related to sound files or any other file on my computer. It did just that, and I uninstalled it from my Windows 7 Pro machine a few minutes later. I did not like
that blood red icon at all either.
Now I can't play my regular music as I've been doing for years.
When I try to post this and it mindlessly just reverts back to my original posting without a clue whatsoever as to why, I again have 2nd thoughts about dealing with Apple.

Might not be too late to recover the playlists and any media still missing. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. There is a backup tip in there you should probably be making use of.

What did iTunes do with all my podcasts and music?

Last week I tried to sync my ipod to get my most recent podcast episodes and iTunes had removed them all. I went to the folders on my external hard drive and only three folders had podcasts in them. All of them exist on my ipod still but if I try to sync it tells me it will wipe my ipod and replace those podcasts with the ones on my computer...they all came from this computer! What gives?
Two days later I went to import a new CD I bought only to discover my iTunes was completely empty. I have over 12,000 songs on my ipod - mostly from my CDs I've imported. It takes up too much space on my laptop and my desktop computer crashed so I only have the backup on my external now. When I saw the music missing in iTunes, I once again went to the actual folders and found them empty. How can iTunes remove property from MY computer? What on earth is going on?
I've scrolled pages and pages of "support" forums and haven't seen anything relevant since last May. Is anyone else having this issue? There has to be a way to get everything from my ipod back onto my computer - via apple or not I don't care. I'm not importing all those CDs again. wth is up with iTunes - why change something that worked so well for so long?

Hi I am a new iMac user. I got my iTunes on here finally, but now it is telling me I haven't authorized my computer? When I ask @ the app. store- no answers... What did I miss?

Hi, I am a new iMac user and I finally got my itunes to recognize my music to the iMac, but now it says my computer is not authorized?! When I ask at the App. store about this- they have nothing, but that is where the iMac sends me? So what did I miss?

You need to Open iTunes and then click on Store in the Menu Bar.

Had the same problem. Go to Users/Library/Preferences. Discard every file that begins with com.apple.iTunes...

Perhaps the answer provided for this problem in Microsoft's forums will help.
Good luck.

Hi. I just synced my New Iphone 4S to my Itunes but it didn't transfer anything but the apps? What did I do wrong?

Here are the steps I made..
Plugged in old IPhone( IPhone 4)
Synced to ITunes.
Unplugged and erased old IPhone (IPhone 4)
Plugged in new IPhone (IPhone 4 S)
Followed instructions.
Restore from old Phone Option.
Restored Old Apps But No Contact info, Text, or Photos.
What did I do Wrong?
Can I still recover my old Info?

Do you have a backup of your iphone? if you do, then go to settings -general - reset - erase all contents and settings. This will wipe your phone clean, then you will have the option to restore from backup http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766

Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart. Usually takes about 10 seconds time. If still problem. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the Firmware.

If so, then review the first link to see if you can troubleshoot your issue yourself. If that doesn't work, then contact iTunes Support via the second link below:

I updated my iPhone today over wifi. It downloaded 6.1.3 completely and started then installed it. After the install all it does is show the connect to iTunes screen. What did I do wrong and now do I have to completely restore the phone?

Next question.... I did an iCloud save point earlier today so in theory everything should have been saved and the restore won't be a complete loss right? Please tell me my pics aren't gone.....
Thanks for the help.

I downloaded the new software to my Iphone and Ipad and used Icloud but now when I am working on my PC reading e-mail my Itunes screen keeps appearing on my screen. What did I do wrong???

I synced and authorized the computer and agreed to use Icloud-it's very annoying when Itunes keeps popping up on my screen. How do I turn this off?

Do you have iTunes Helper installed?

Music not recognized from old PC to new, what did i do wrong.

So i just got a new PC. I saved my entire Itunes file on an external hardrive. The music all transfers to the new PC and i loaded it into the newest Itunes. I authorized the new computer through Itunes and got all artwork. Now i cannot play songs or transfer music to my i-pod. I had to rboot the Ipod. so now i have an empty Ipod and a bunch of Music I cannot play. I've connested my Iphone and it seems to recognize it, but I'm afraid to connest it again until i trust the itunes to work. When I try to play a song it say cannot locate the original/
What did i do wrong? What can I do? I still have the old tower available to retreive Itunes
Thanks for any advice

The index page copied from the template is now reading the css. I did nothing other than shut down DW and open it again. Maybe it just takes a while for the process to complete. Am now creating more pages that are also not reading css. Will do the same and see if it all connects.

Why did itunes crash corrupt my whole computer?

i hate itunes so much! i tried to download some tunes and the files were corrupted on apples end, it wouldnt let me download them, it kept giving me errors. then you know what happened, itunes lost my whole library, then you know what happened, all my prefrences for all my applications suddenly disappreared. i have no bookmarks, no email settings, nothing. im sooooo ****** off right now its not even funny.
why did the crash of itunes screw up my whole computer? and what can i do to bring it back to the way it was before itunes blew it up?
this is unacceptable. because of this, i will never buy anythig from itunes store again.

Welcome to the Apple Discussion
I'm sorry to hear of your problems. However, I wonder if iTunes screwed up your computer? Perhaps there's another, core issue with your Hard Disk? Have you run any Hardware Diagnostics?

My husband and I did the most recent update. Now when we send messages to each other we also receive a duplicate of the message to ourself, what did we do wrong?

Check to see if you are both using the same Apple ID for iMessage. If you are, one of you should go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID. (You can continue to share the same ID for other services such as iTunes.)

I just updated my iPad to OS5 and all of my apps are gone. What did I do wrong and how can I get them back? Several were paid for. Thanks

If you have failed to make sure that any apps purchased on the iphone were transferred to your computer before updating, then you will have to redownload.
Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick Links.
