Have a new computer - how do i move my music, etc from the old computer to the new one?

I have a new computer and want to remove music from the old computer and move to the new one.  How do I do it?  I have an IPod mini. 

Copy the /Home/Music/iTunes/ folder from the old computer to the new one. You can do this using an external hard drive or by connecting the two computers via Firewire cable (if both computers have Firewire ports) -Transferring files between two computers using FireWire - or using your local network via file sharing.

  • How do I move my iTunes library from my old computer to my new computer?

    I currently have a Gateway 500S PC running Windows XP. I also have a 120GB portable WD Passport USB Drive. My iTunes library is on this computer.
    I have just purchased a Dell XPS 410 PC running Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005.
    My question is how do I move my iTunes library from my old computer to my new one utilizing my portable USB Drive without losing my songs and playlists that originally took many days to set-up?

    Answer received did not answer my question. How about some detail on how to do this?

  • How can I move Acrobat 9 Pro from my old MacBook to a new one?

    Hi there,
    How can I move Acrobat 9 Pro from my old MacBook to a new one?
    Thanks!

    Hi cialbert,
    Do you have the install media? If not, you can download Acrobat from here: Download Acrobat products | 9, 8 - Adobe.  You'll need your Acrobat serial number (see Find your serial number quickly - Adobe).
    Note, as well, that the licensing agreement allows you to activate the software on up to two computers. If you've already activated it on two computers, deactivate on one before installing on the new computer (see Activation & Deactivation Help).
    I think that should take care of it! Please let us know if you need additional help.
    Best,
    Sara

  • HT201272 how do i transfer my music library from an old laptop to a new laptop   BTW - i dont have the old laptop

    Hi - how do i transfer my music library from an old laptop to a new laptop??  BTW - i dont have the OLD laptop anymore - am i screwed??

    You cannot transfer anything from a device which you do not have, because you do not have it.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything on the new computer.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

  • How do I move my iTunes files from an old computer (Windows XP) to a new one (Windows 7 Professional)?

    Can anyone tell me how to move my iTunes music and book files from an old computer running Windows XP to my new one running Windows 7 Professional?  Do I download and install iTunes on the new system then use the backup and restore functions?  If so, it looks like the backup only goes to CDs or DVDs; there are so many files that using a USB drive would make more sense, but that does not appear to be an option.  Would it work to simply copy the iTunes folder under My Music to the new computer and assume that iTunes would find it?  Thank you, very much, for any help and guidance.

  • How can I move my Acrobat software from my old laptop to my new that doesn't have a disk drive?

    Oh, that's the heading - ok...  Well, I think the subject line pretty much says it all
    I bought a Lenovo 2 Yoga.  It does not have a disk drive so I can't load the software onto the new system.  And, I don't want to repurchase Acrobat again.  Is there a way to get my Acrobat from my old laptop to my new?
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Thanks Sam.am.  I did do that and it appeared to have worked great.  The only problem now is it wants my Serial number.  I have gone over to Identit-e 2.0 to enter my product code to get the serial number as Adobe has directed - but, it doesn't recognize my code.  This was a Student Teacher version.  I have all the original stuff and the product code.  So, I'm not sure why it won't recognize the product code.  I'll keep digging.
    Thanks for the other suggestions guys.  Can I move my Acrobat X Pro folder from my old laptop to a stick and just do it that way should I not be able to get the serial number?
    Thanks again
    Paul

  • How can I move Adobe Acrobat Pro from my old laptop to my new one?

    A few years ago I purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro. I recently purchased a new laptop. As such, I'd like to install Adobe Acrobat Pro on the new machine, however; I don't want to have to purchase it again. Does anyone know how I can move it from my old laptop to my new one?

    I feel I've explained plenty what you must do but you aren't getting it.
    All music on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Transfer the music from your iTunes library on your computer to your new iPhone in the same way it was transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone - via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
    Since you prefer the manual way, you must manually drag and drop the same 377 songs from your iTunes library to your new iPhone - in the same way the 377 songs were manually transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone.
    Or you can sync which provides more options overall. Create an iTunes playlist for the 377 songs. Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and choose selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Select the iTunes playlist below that includes the 377 songs followed by a sync.

  • How do I move all my settings from my old computer with Vista to a New one with Windows 7 ? I'm using V. 14.0.1 on both Systems

    Hello All,
    How do I move all my Settings & Bookmarks from my 5 year old Computer running Vista and Firefox V. 14.0.1 , to my New Computer with Windows 7 and also Firefox 14.0.1 ?
    Thank you very much.

    You can copy your Firefox profile from one computer to the other and continue working with almost no changes :)
    [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
    A really easy way to do this is the following:
    #Click the Start button, type %APPDATA% into the search bar, press Enter (on your old PC)
    #Right click on the Mozilla folder, copy to a thumb drive (or something you can use to transfer it to your new PC)
    #Go to %APPDATA% the same way on your new computer
    #If the Mozilla folder already exists, I'd either delete it or rename it
    #Paste the Mozilla folder into the same place on your new PC
    #then upgrade to Firefox 15
    You can also use Firefox Sync. [[How do I set up Firefox Sync?]]

  • How do I move my Itunes library from my old pc to my new laptop?

    Hi,
    I have most of my music on my cronky old PC which is about to die! How do I transfer the music on my itunes onto my shiny new laptop? Please can you make it really easy???
    Thanks
    Helen

    Easy way, if you don't have a time-capsule machine or something is to connect an SD card to the PC, move all songs onto it, then connect the SD card to the other computer and move the songs off of it onto the computer.

  • How do i move my photobooth photos from my old mac to my new mac with lion os

    have tons of photos in my older version of photobooth, how do i migrate them to new mac with lion os. looked everywhere but can't find an answer.

    It's actually very simple. In your old AB under the file menu click "Export Address Book Archive to your desktop. Then using the new system log in to the old via network and move the file from the old to the new.
    Then open the new AB and click import AB archive"
    You're done
