Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

It says that when I turn on I tunes match that it will erase the music library on my iOS devise and replaced by what is in the cloud. But I have imported a lot of cd's into my iOS devise and don't want to loose those songs and I don't want them deleted. P

I Had to reinstall windows on my computer. I made sure all my songs etc were on my iPods/iPad. Now when I plug the iPod in it says (in iTunes Match) that my music library will be deleted and replaced by what is in the cloud. However I don't want those songs erased. I want them to go up to the I tunes match cloud.

so that I can down load them again.

also how do I get I tunes match to remember my playlists? It only has album etc.

thank you so very much. I appreciate any help.

iPod touch, iOS 5.1

iOS devices are not backup devices.

Restore the content to your computer from the backup of the computer.
