Hi Gang! Is there any way of getting my songs from my Iphone to my new computer just by syncing rather then having to pay for them all again?? thank you
Hey baby birch
You are able to sync purchased content from your iDevice to a new computer as long as the comptuer is authorized
To authorize the computer follow these steps
At the topi of the screen next to File- Edit -View, click store then Authorize this computer.
Enter in your appleID email address and password and click authorize
**If you do not see the File Edit View option, At the very top left corner you should see a little square click the square and click show menu bar.
Now that your computer is authorized click the file menu button, then click Devices, then go to your iPhones name and then click Transfer purchases this will allow you to transfer all of your purchased content to the computer
Now if you want to transfer your non purchased content to the computer you can do so if you have wif and the previous computer on the same network as the new computer with home sharing

I use my work computer to sync my iphone due to outlook appointments and email. I was given a new computer and got everything transferred ok, except for my music. I need to transfer my music from my iphone to my computer itunes. itunes is only giving me the option to sync from itunes to iphone, which would wipe out all of my music I think. Can someone help with this?
razmee209 is right, but if you can't get your old computer, you can use iExplorer to download your music from your phone to your computer. I've used it for other things and it works.

Hi can anyone help? I have had an iphone for years now and use my calendar to run my life! I have just invested in an iMac but when it has sync'd my calendar from my phone all my events are appearing one day earlier. I have checked the time zone and set it to Apple Europe. Can anyone help e get this sorted? Much appreciate any help.
Helo No Joy,
It sounds like your events synced to your computer from the phone and they are all an hour out of sync. I recommend verifying that time zone support is turned on with your iCloud calendar if you are using iCloud:
Use a time zone other than the default
In iCloud Calendar, choose Preferences from the Action pop-up menu below the sidebar.
Click Advanced, select “Enable time zone support,” then click Save.
With time zone support on, a “time zone” pop-up menu appears when you create an event, letting you set any time zone you want.
You can also reset the default time zone for your calendars (and their events) at any time.
From: iCloud: Change your calendar’s time zone
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2677
If not, I would verify that your iPhone date and time are set correctly with the correct time zone support information:
iOS: How to adjust Time Zone Support for calendars
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4576
To enable Time Zone Support for calendars
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Scroll down to Calendars.
Tap Time Zone Support.
Slide the slider for Time Zone Support to ON.
Tap Time Zone.
Enter your current location or the closest city in the same time zone and tap it when it appears in the results list.
And I would next verify that this information is correct on your computer as well:
Choose Calendar > Preferences, click Advanced, then select “Turn on time zone support.”
From: Calendar (Mavericks): View events in a different time zone

I'm new to Mac. I have an iPhone and a Mac Mini. My original iTunes was on a Windows computer that crashed. So, all of my iTunes Music and Movies are gone. How do I get the movies and music from my iPhone to the new Mac Mini?
If you still have the crashed Win computer, you may be able to recover your music and movies from the hard drive. If you have a friend with a hard drive USB connection kit and a PC, they should be able to help. Otherwise, check locally for computer services that might do that for you (I think Best Buy Geek Squad may be able to help). If the drive itself is in good shape, it shouldn't be too expensive.

I was syncing my ipod touch on a friend's computer and now want to sync to my new mac book, will I lose all my stuff?
Not if you do the following:
- Transfer iTunes purchased to the new computer:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using one of the third-party programs discussed here:
new PC: Apple Support Communities
- Move a copy of the iPod backup file from the old to new computer. That file is located here:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
- After the stuff is moved/transfered, restore the iPod from the backup you just moved to the new computer and sync as necessary. -
I have my entire music library (purchased and burnt CD's) on my iPod Touch from one computer and I wanted to sync it all to my new computer. I was hoping it would all transfer via sync when I plugged it in but it doesn't seem to work. Please help?!
Ok, I had a glitch, forced to restart, and lost my train of thought.
Reinstalling iTunes should fix the major issue that might have gone wrong, perhaps your explaination points will disappear and everything will be peachy again.
But if they don't, you can open the XML file in iTunes Folder using a Text edit program to see what the common pathname is to the iTunes Music folder or where your content is located.
If you moved the itunes folder, it needs to go back.
I can't download iTunes to my Vista virtual machine to test it out right now because iTunes is down, so I can't verify the pathname, perhaps your issue and the iTunes being down are related somehow?
You don't want to import all your music again, but it's a option, but you lose all your playlists, that's what I'm trying to recover.
If oyu don't have a whole lot of playlists, then simply select all the explaimation point music and delete, select File from the menu and import your itunes folder again. -
my sons ipad uses my user name (i have an ipad and iphone). i want to set his ipad up with his own username and password. How do i do that, and can it be done without losing any of his apps, music or video?
Go to http://appleid.apple.com.
To clarify, the mere act of changing the Apple ID on the device will not remove any content. But you cannot update the apps or re-sync them if they get deleted without the old Apple ID. It may be best to download them again with the new ID. -
