looking for any advice anyone may have

i recently got my computer reformatted due to a virus. i got the computer back and plugging my iphone in it has the songs that are on my iphone, but 0 songs in my actual itunes library. is there a way to get the songs from the iphone and into the library or do i completely have to start over. any advice is greatly appreciated. thanks.

Is your itunes library still on the computer? Should be in the My Music file.

Not long ago I borrowed a friends 30gig Ipod and transfered his music onto my computer by exploring the Ipod as a physical drive, when I found the hidden music files I simply copy & pasted them onto my computer. Some files carried over their information others didn't.

I used to use iTunes...I switched to WMP. Less restrictive. Good luck re-adding everything, haha...stuff takes hours! How many songs did you have in there?

Itunes itself when you log into it will remember all the songs you payed to download so you can re download them if needed.
