iPod, of course, and music rescue


Question Posted Friday February 20 2009, 7:27 pm

Okay, I think I'm about to cry.

My computer recently crashed, and like a normal teenage girl this means that my iTunes has crashed as well. That means, none of my music is on my computer.

Now this has happened before. In which case a friend of mine directed me here:

And I downloaded this, got my music back, deleted it from my computer, etc.

This here is a new computer, a different IP, and I downloaded it again just fine. So its not that. Its, when I tried to hook my iPod back into the thing and get my music back, it decided to hate on me. It stops on one song for like an hour, and so I cancel the download (which is "Not Responding" at this point), go back in, take the song off the list, and start again. Oops, now its stopping at a different song!

Gosh, all I want is my music back. That's 500+ songs, one movie and two TV shows, only 100 songs are purchased (and, whoop-dee-do, I'm not allowed to get my purchases back either because iTunes says my computer isn't set up for that?).

I've been sitting here for hours, swearing my head off and just TRYING TO GET MY MUSIC BACK ON THIS COMPUTER.

I ask, please, can anyone help me? I know that this hasn't just happened to me, right?

Man, I know what you mean. My music Library is my life! Although my labtop hasn't failed me yet.

So from what I've read and looked at, the program you downloaded seems decent...although not many people use it.

A lot of free programs can sometimes tend to run into bumps in the road.

Anyways, here's my two-cents. I did some research and the only thing I could find was their Help Page.

May want to look in there and see if your problem is listed. If not, then all I can say is that the program you're using isn't 100% reliable. Try going to your Control Panel on your computer and clicking on the Programs & Features Icon, then delete the Music Rescue Program from your computer. After that's done, re-install it and see if it works now.

It may have been a problem that occured while it was processing or downloading or who knows what else.

Be sure to close out of any extra programs or windows while the Music Rescue thing is running, just to make sure nothing interrupts it.

(whew that was long...)
Good luck, if that doesn't work, try searching for another program.
