I have tried to delete the latest itunes and get back to 10.7. Now I have nothing in my library. How do I get the freshly installed itunes 10.7 to sync with the itunes STORE, and get me computers library back?

This is what you should have done...

To roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the installer from here, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.

See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

Click on a diagram above. It should open in full scale.

When you sign in it should show up in "Your Content", otherwise go to Your Stuff > Discussions.

If you'd already downgraded to 10.7 you didn't need to do so again, just roll back the library database. Sorry for not making that clear. 😊

The file should be under My Documents and in the Downloads folder.

You need to restore, copy and paste, your old backup iTunes folder to the My Music folder. That folder contains your library.

For example, if you have a backup copy of the iTunes folder on an external drive:

1. Open a folder to see the contents of the external drive

2. Select the iTunes folder and copy

3. Go to My Documents and open the My Music folder

4. Delete the iTunes folder listed there

5. Paste your backup folder as a replacement

Following these steps you should have 10.7 or older and the older library that is compatible.
