So just to make sure I don’t destroy my life here… I have a few songs on my iTunes now just so I’d have something to listen to during the day. When I plug in my iPod is everything going to be overwritten by these couple of songs? Where do I turn off the feature to auto load onto iPod? I can’t find it anywhere.
Man all the Fxx folders are empty. Lame
Guess I’m basically screwed.
That sucks. iTunes sucks.
very recently something similar happened to my hdd - the whole thing got screwed up and i lost like 15 gigs of precious music. The only way out i was told was data recovery software - there are lots available out there but it’ll take you ages to recover the data - the whole process can go on for more than a couple of days. I’m sure you could try it on your hdd even if it’s formatted - yeah that’s right ‘formatted’ (unless of course you haven’t added tons of new data in there.
You could even try it on your iPod - and since it uses flash memory the process could be faster
good luck dude!
I’d cry when I use to lose a music CD. I don’t know what I’d do if I lost that much music. Probably go crazy and shoot myself
Yeah I’m pretty sad. Luckily I had all my Beatles music ripped twice evidently so I’m basically going to listen to the Beatles until I hate them (hopefully never) at which point I will add additional music. sigh
you could try using WMP to scan for songs… it always finds randoms
Thanks, but it’s gone and of that I’m sure. My music is toast
You can never hate the Beatles . . . If I had paypal I’d buy you a Rush CD - a man without music is not a man. Think about it :rocker:
Haha, that’s awesome. Thanks for the sentiment, that cracked me up.
To anyone: So the old music folder is slowly eating itself. It’s actually all kinds of corrupt, and that’s no fun. I’m afraid it’s going to spread and eat the rest of my hard drive. Does anyone know a way to delete a folder that just spits random errors out like cyclical redunancy checks and the folder is not empty (which it “is” when you open the folder). sigh
I doubt it would spread, but you could try deleting it through the command line (cmd.exe)…
