If you try to play a song and it errors out saying the file can't be found ...just delete that song from iTunes. I think you either get an X next to the song name ..or it turns red or something. <br><br>I found out it asks to copy things back after I deleted some crappy free songs I downloaded. I didn't want them anymore, but when I plugged my iPod back in it realized it still had them on there and wanted to know if they should be copied back to the Mac. <br><br>zweisoft<br>
Ah ok, I can do that easily enough. I thought you meant go into the iTunes folder or prefs or wherever.<br><br>I wonder if I can get the purchased music back if I call Apple?<br><br><br><br>my photos
John, the apps for retrieving songs from an iPod are really nice, easier than calling Apple.<br><br>The link below has a 30 day trial, 250 song limit and songs must be copied one at a time in Trial mode. $8 to purchase. Works great.<br><br>http://www.scifihifi.com/podworks/<br><br>------>#1 - JD's Trivia game<br><br>------>#2 - MM-MCF Trivia game

<blockquote><font size=1>In reply to:</font><hr><p>Sorry I wasn't clear. I meant for songs that weren't on my iPod and that I lost on the bad HD.<p><hr></blockquote><p>Ewww, that's not good. How many songs do you think you lost? Mary (Sleevetugger) had the same thing happen a few years ago and Apple let her re-download them. Might be worth a call if we're talking about a substantial amount.<br><br>
I'm afraid to look! heh<br><br>Actually, I don't know exactly, but there are a lot over the years that I have purchased but I don't know how many I have on my iPod that I did buy.<br><br>I thought I had my iTunes music on 2 HD's but apparently not. Time to buy a new internal HD and an external one for back up! That Seagate 1TB drive looks nice.<br><br><br><br>my photos

I back up tunes to on internal and an external HD, and periodically burn a CD of everything I've imported since the previous time I burned a CD.<br><br>[color:red]</font color=red> [color:orange]</font color=orange> [color:yellow]</font color=yellow> [color:green]</font color=green> [color:blue]</font color=blue> [color:purple]</font color=purple>

You can check your Purchase History in your iTunes account. Cross reference that with the songs on your iPod and you'll know what you're missing.<br><br>
