Will resetting ipod make me lose all my songs?
will i lose all my songs if i reset?
Uninstalling either the iPod Updater software or the iTunes software should not erase your music files. They are stored separately under the '..My Music\iTunes' folder.
However, not making backups of your music files and the iTunes Library database file is an extremely risky position in which to subject yourself.

2 or 3 months ago I restored my PC and then reinstalled Itunes. Plugged up my Ipod and it wiped off everything except 3 (out of 5) podcasts that I currently had. how do I get the songs backs?

Is there a link to a place where I can email apple so I can get the songs that I downloaded back? -
Hello.
I am having difficulties with my iPod and my new computer (Windows 8). My laptop won't read the iPod (it disappears from the "File Explorer" after just a few seconds). I was told to save all my files to SharePod first. However, when I do this, it tells me I need to go to iTunes and "Enable Disc Use" on my iPod. When I went to do this, it began syncing my iPod, but I got worried that it would erase any songs I did not have on iTunes or did not purchase from iTunes (many songs were purchased from Amazon).
Will syncing my iPod on my new laptop in an empty iTunes make me lose all my songs on my iPod?
Thanks!It's been an hour and no one knows? Come on...

No. You can continue to use content obtained with your old account. You cannot, however, transfer this content to your new account.

if i got a new iTunes and it doesn't have anysongs on it and my ipod does, will my ipod lose all the songs, apps and etc. i have on it if i sync it with the new itunes?
If you transfer any iTunes content to the iPhone from an iTunes library on another computer, all iTunes content on the iPhone will be erased first with a warning message provided indicating this beforehand.
Authorize the different computer with your Apple ID with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, right click on the iPhone under Devices in the iTunes source list and at the menu window that appears, select Transfer Purchases. This will transfer all apps on your iPhone to the iTunes library. -
Need help with my nano. My pc wont recognize it after a pc reformat. I don't want to lose all my songs.
Hello Jeanne
If you are having issues with your iPod not showing up on your computer then check out the article below. What you need to figure out is if it does not show up at all or if it is just iTunes.

I cannot open itunes. When I click on it a message pops up saying that itunes is corrupted and needs to be reinstalled. If I reinstall it will I lose all my songs? I have over 2,000 songs that I cannot lose! What do I need to do to fix it and keep all my songs?
Aha, a somewhat different question. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

I have an old I pod that was syncd with a windows computer, now i am trying to sync with my mac itunes account. We have the same i tunes account but it is saying i will lose all my songs if i sync now. Help?
I would recommend you use a program called senuti that allows you to copy your songs over to a new computer from an iPod. Unfortunatlly you have to pay for the full version but it allows you to have 1000 free song capacity of copying over and a movie counts as the capacity of 1 song.

I recently upgraded my Macbook Air to the mighty "Mountain Lion" and now I cannot seem to find my "notes", regardless of the countless answers given to people with questions similar to me.
Surely Apple wouldn’t make you lose all your important information-or they would be "bad apples".
If someone has a solution, please please please help me find my lovely notes! (Step by step would be most helpful).

Restoring computer- will I lose all my songs?
I'm going to have to restore my computer to it's original factory settings because of a bug that it's having, which means i'll have to lose all my songs on iTunes. When I reinstall iTunes, will all the songs be there again? How do I make it so I don't have to upload and purchase all that music again?
Yes, you will lose everything and have to repurchase it.
Either use File -> Backup library in iTunes to backup everything to CD/DVD or copy /My Documents/My Music/iTunes folder to an external drive. -
MY hard drive crashed and I had to replace it. Now when I try to sync my iPod with iTunes it says that I have to replace the old library (that is lost forever) with the new library to sync. I do not want to lose all the songs on my iPod! What can I do?
Copy all the content on your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes. Then go ahead and sync the iPod with your new library.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
