I just downloaded iTunes onto my new laptop. None of my music is there now. I had over 4,000 songs on there and they are all gone now.

Did you put your music there?
yes all of my music is there and I wanted to add some more to it and update my iPod and now I can't
My old laptop was stolen so I can't do the transfer. I was able to get the music before when I upgraded my laptop before.
You said the music is not there and now you say ti is.
I do not understand.
Please explain.
Your music will be where you put it. When you got your new laptop, you should copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.
You can redownload some iTunes purchases in some countries:
It was on my old laptop and that was stolen back in December. I just bought a new one and logged into my account and now none of my music is there. Last time I upgraded my laptop and installed iTunes to it all my music was there when I logged into my account.
Was your backup copy of your computer stolen as well?
I gave you a link explaining how to download your past iTunes purchases, if for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy.
You can also transfer from an iPod/iphone. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
everything was stolen and I had to start over. There were no purchases it was all the music I used to have, until that was stolen too. There were over 4,000 songs on my account
ONLY iTunes purchases can be redownloaded. If your music was from another source then it is gone.
Certainly all of the music that you used to have was purchased from somewhere. None was purchased from the iTunes store?
it was all my personal cd's and wanted them on the computer so that is where they were. So basically I have to start all over again from scratch?
Yes, unless you maintained a backup copy.
iTunes servers do not store your music. Your music is only where you put it.
Sorry.
I did have it backed up on a separated hard drive, but like I said everything was stole
So I guess I have to start all over, I'm sad now
