Hello, my iTunes dates are crashed on my mac, how can I download all my itunes match songs and save on my mac?

Hi mrmoo13!
You have a couple of options for transferring your music library from one computer to another. First, you can download all of your music that is stored in the cloud on iTunes Match by following the instructions on this page:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Access all your music anytime, anywhere with iTunes Match
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12284
You can follow steps listed in the section right here:
Play or download songs from iCloud
You can play songs directly from iCloud, or you can download songs so you can play them when you’re not connected to the Internet.
If a song is available in iCloud, it has a Download button next to it.
To play the song, double-click it.
To download the song, click the Download button.
After you download a song to a computer, it remains in the computer’s iTunes library, even if you turn off iTunes Match.
To only display downloaded songs in your iTunes library, choose View > Hide Music in the Cloud. This also hides any previous iTunes Store purchases you haven’t downloaded.
For information about downloading and playing songs on an iOS device, see the documentation for the device.
In order to make it easier to download all of your music, you can highlight all of the songs in your iTunes Match section and then click download, as mentioned in these instructions.
You can also choose to transfer the music from your old computer to the new one by following the steps in this article, whcih will give you some other options for doing this transfer:

Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • How can I download all my iTunes music after wiping my hard disk without going into each of the 100  artists listed

    Hi - I have recently had to wipe my hard disk which meant all my music has gone with it so I have an empty iTunes music library.
    The only way I can see of doing it is
    - going to the store
    - selecting Purchased
    - then I get a list of artists or albums down the left hand side
    - have to select each individually and click Download All on the bottom left - for over 100+ its going to take forever ! Is there an easier way ?????
    Thanks !

    You can only sync your device to one iTunes library at a time. You can either copy the music from the library on your other computer to the one you have loaded the new CDs onto, or you can purchase an external CD Drive and load them to the iTunes library you are currently sync'd with:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    http://store.apple.com/us/search/External-CD-DVD---SuperDrive
    For syncing, I am not familiar with the drag and drop method. I have always used the normal sync process:
    iTunes 12 for Mac: Sync iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    iTunes 12 for Windows: Sync iPod, iPhone, or iPad

    A few years ago I bought music from Itunes.  Recently I deactivated all computers in order to add a new computer.  Most of the music I purchased came through, but I am still missing about 30% of it.  How can I download all the music I have purchased from Itunes?

    Might have luck with that here >  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer on the iTunes Store.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID that was used for the original purchases.

    I am from Bangladesh. And it seems iTunes store isn't available here. How can I download apps from it?

    Unfortunately you won't be able to until if/when Apple open an iTunes store there (http://www.apple.com/feedback/) - to be able to buy from another country's store you need a valid billing address in that country and be in that country when buying from it.

  • My husband's computer crashed and he hadn't backed up his ITunes library. How can we download all previously purchased music?

    My husbands computer crashed and we don't have a backup of our ITunes. How can we access and download all previous ITunes purchases?

    Depending upon which store you use you may be able to recover some of your past purchases. See HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.
    Go the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unchecked. (This should reduce the risk of corrupt downloads.)
    For the future backup your library regularly with this User Tip.
    If you have an Apple device see: Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 thing. But now my iphone's gmail inbox shows a random selection of emails (not most recent ones that are in my inbox). How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 capabilities. But now my iphone's gmail inbox only shows a random selection of emails (i.e. right now it is May 31, 2013 but the emails in my inbox are a couple from Nov 12, a few from Oct 12, and then some way older than that and so on.When I log into my gmail from a computer, I see all my emails in the logical, standard order. How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    If you're trying to decide between using POP and IMAP, we encourage you to use IMAP.
    Unlike POP, IMAP offers two-way communication between your web Gmail and your email client. This means when you log in to Gmail using a web browser, actions you perform on email clients and mobile devices (ex: putting mail in a 'work' folder) will instantly and automatically appear in Gmail (ex: it will already have a 'work' label on that email the next time you sign in).
    IMAP also provides a better method to access your mail from multiple devices. If you check your email at work, on your mobile phone, and again at home, IMAP ensures that new mail is accessible from any device at any given time.
    Finally, IMAP offers a more stable experience overall. Whereas POP is prone to losing messages or downloading the same messages multiple times, IMAP avoids this through two-way syncing capabilities between your mail clients and your web Gmail.
    That is from the page that you linked- does highlighted part of message ring a bell?

  • Hello...i have lost my all my data because i restored my phone, how can i get all contacts and photos back?

    Hello, I have lost all my data from iphone as i restored it, how can i get my old contacts and photos back ?

    Connect to the computer the last backup is on, right click on its name in iTunes, and choose "Restore from backup". If the latest backup is in iCloud make sure you have a WiFi connection, then go to Settings/General/Reset and tap Erase all content and settings. After erasing you will be prompted to restore the iCloud backup.

  • All Time Machine dates are white, no pink.  How can I be sure data is backed up on Time Capsule, not just on iMac itself?

    Apple support http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4256 says "If you back up to a Time Capsule or other network disk, a message briefly appears while Time Machine connects your computer to the backup disk."    When I enter Time Machine on my iMac (OS 10.6.8) I get a window entitled "Connecting to Server" and says, "connecting to backup volume" with a horizontal blue and white barber's pole.  This message goes on for about 60 seconds before Time Machine opens.
    Apple support goes on to say, "Gray tick marks on the timeline represent snapshots stored on your internal drive (portable computers only). Pink tick marks represent backups stored on your backup disk."  All the tick marks and dates are grey and become white when mouse is rolled over them.  No dates are pink. 
    If I have not pink dates, are my backups stored on my Time Capsule?  Or, are all backups local on the iMac itself?  What do I need to do to ensure backup is on the Time Capsule?

    I just backed up my whole computer on an external drive with Time Machine.  I wanted to clean off my old files from my computer, but I didn't want to erase them until I knew I could go back and get particular items from the back-up.
    No, No, No, a thousand times, no!
    Pardon the dramatics, but don't do that.  Time Machine will, sooner or later, delete the backup copies of anything that's no longer on your Mac. 
    Plus, of course, if you delete the originals, you no longer really have backups (backup = an extra copy in case something happens to the original). 
    Your best bet might be to get a larger internal HD for your Mac.  Second best would be to get another external HD, format it for a Mac, and move some stuff (perhaps your entire iPhoto library) to it, and let Time Machine back up both your internal HD and the new external.
