My entire iTunes library is gone?
A couple days ago I noticed that the iTunes file on my compter had spontaeneously copied itself to the Pictures library on my computer. I had no idea why, but when I tried to move it back to the Music library I got a message saying that the destination folder is the same as the source folder. I wasn't quite sure what was going on, so I left it alone. Today, I went to open up iTunes on my computer and I immediately noticed that something was wrong. The Purchased tab was gone, replaced by an unfamiliar iTunes Match tab, and when I tried to go into the Music tab, it was completely empty. I went to see if my iTunes account had accidentally been logged out of, but it was untouched. I went into my Music library tab on my computer and clicked into the iTunes file. Everything seemed fine, until I realized that the iTunes media, the file with all my songs, was missing. I also checked the mysterious iTunes file in my Pictures library, and it was the same situation. I'm concerned because I have quite a few mp3 files I downloaded from 4shared, and I probably can't get them back since I didn't purchase them from iTunes. I do, however, have my entire music library on my iPhone, and I want to sync it with my computer and copy the songs on my phone back into iTunes. But, when I plugged my phone in and attempted a sync on iTunes, I got a warning saying that songs in my iTunes library would replace the songs on my iPhone. If I did that, it would virtually destroy all the songs I have on my phone. Is there any way that I can transfer the songs on my phone back into my iTunes library, without directly syncing with iTunes?
Yes, you can transfer the files from iPhone to iTunes, here is the video guide
and next time you may want to backup the files just in case losing them
- Will IOS 7 upgrade delete my entire reading list in safari? So i have an old iphone 4 that still works but is not updated.

- Will downloading a new iTunes ruin my old iTunes library? I tried connecting my new iPhone 5 to my iTunes but it said that it wouldn't connect because my version of iTunes was really old (from 2010) and I never updated. It said I need to download a new version of iTunes (10.7 onwards) for it to be compatible with my iPhone. But my question is, IF I download a new version of iTunes, will all my old songs on my old iTunes disappear? Because if I had to re-download my whole library, I would seriously cry. That would take the rest of my life.

- My iPhone has been charging an entire night but won't turn on? It has water damage but was repaired with minor issues as expected. The last two nights its taken longer and longer for it to charge to turning on. Last night is the worst because its been charging for over 8 hours and hasn't turned on.
