Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device

I am using Windows 10 with iTunes 12.3.3. Either my upgrade to Win10 or the recent Apple update has eliminated all but my purchased music on my iTunes on my computer, approximately 780 songs. I have over 7,000 songs on my iPhone 6...

I have more questions than answers but perhaps the may help. Songs are stored on the computer's hard drive, usually under the Music Library on a W10 computer but possibly in other places. iTunes is just the conduit by which one can transfer/sync music from a PC to an iDevice.

Are you able to locate your music (the 7,000 songs) on the computer? Were they ever on the PC or just on your phone?

You mentioned that your purchased music was 780 songs. Where did the others songs come from? From CDs perhaps?

If the songs were just on your phone, I cannot offer any suggestions better than Demo's or Phil's. I would follow their advice.

If the songs were ripped from CDs, it would be most unlikely that an update to W10 deleted them. They may be there somewhere. Did you by any chance backup your PC to an external HD prior to the W10 update?

Let me see if I can help, perhaps. Little to lose but time. I have a new Dell W10 computer. I also have an older Dell W7 computer with many years of ripped CD music. When I got the W10 computer I copied my ripped music to the new one and was able to place it under the Music folder with no issues.

First, how did you rip the CD's? More specifically, did you use iTunes to rip them or did you use Windows Media Player?

iTunes normally places ripped CDs as you mentioned above into the Music (or My Music in the old W7) > iTunes > iTunes Media > Music library but not always as you could have pointed it to a different location.

Windows Media Player would not place the music into the iTunes folder. It would normally place it under My Music in W7 or Music in W10 but not under the subfolder iTunes.

I would go to the computer and expand all the subfolders under Music and see if you can locate your songs there. Alternatively, you could open File Explorer, select Libraries on the folder structure on the left side, then on the upper right corner there will be a search box. Do you recall the format that you used to rip the CDs? MP3s, WMAs, AAC ? You can do a search of your libraries by entering *.mp3 or whatever format you used. You can search from Computer instead of Libraries and it will search your whole HD but may take time.

Ok, success.... so you have not lost your music as I suspected.

Please note as I mentioned that the music (songs) are never in iTunes per se, iTunes is just the conduit by which music is moved/synced to your iDevices. The music resides in the HD folder it is placed under.

Open iTunes, click on File, Add to Library and point it to where the songs are.

Hi there, you can apply a third-party program to copy music from iPhone to computer. And then plug files you want to the software on the computer. In this way, problem will seems more likely to solve, isn't it?

Download and install the software, and then connect your iPhone to PC.

Then start copying data from iPhone to PC, choose songs you like and begin.

That's it!
