Lost all music on iphone from itunes syncing help?
i went on my computer and i realized that my itunes library was gone with all my music in it. So i plugged my iphone into my computer and synced it. I thought i could just sync it back to my itunes but my music never showed up! So now all my music is gone from my iphone and my mac! I didn't buy the music from itunes either i downloaded most of them from mp3skull. Its so frustrating! Can i do anything to bring my music back?!
" i realized that my itunes library was gone with all my music in it."
An iTunes library isn't necessarily the song files themselves - it's more like the catalog of a library, or the menu in a restaurant.
Here's a question - does some other iPod or iPhone owner in your house use that computer and have their own iTunes account? Maybe you accidentally plugged in while it was signed to that other person.
"I thought i could just sync it back to my itunes but my music never showed up!"
Have you ever seen that happen? It's not supposed to. I don't know why iPod and related owners think that they can do that. ITunes doesn't copy from devices. Apple has made that restriction a basic feature for years, yet so many iPhone owners still have yet to learn that lesson (but also keep posting questions about that here).
"i downloaded most of them from mp3skull. Its so frustrating!"
Downloaded to your computer or your phone? Obviously iTunes isn't going to protect music you purchased (or otherwise acquired) elsewhere. If you downloaded to your computer, the files should be where you left them - on your HD, external, flash or whatever.
You didn't erase them thinking that you could just copy back from your phone, did you?
- Syncing all music onto iphone? I recently got an iPhone 5 and on my iTunes I have all my music, about 1000+ songs, I've synced the songs on my iPhone but it only puts 300, when I try to add individual albums it says there's no songs that exist. My friend would send me albums through drop-box so I'm thinking that's the problem, is there any way that I can get all of the songs on my iPhone or is it too late? I did PKAP said but it still didn't work.

- ITunes syncing help. So ANNOYING? Just to add one ebook to iBooks on my iPhone, iTunes backs up and syncs EVERYTHING. Why can't it just simply transfer the single file. Is there a way to stop it from doing this. Please help. I have so many apps and pictures that to put one ebook on my phone it takes half an hour.
