How can I get my old iTunes music onto my new computer without access to my old computer? I left my previous job and forgot to transfer my music. I bought iTunes match and it shows my old Mac as a device, but I cannot get the music off it.

How can I get my old iTunes music onto my new computer without access to my old computer? I left my previous job and forgot to transfer my music. I bought iTunes match and it shows my old Mac as a device, but I cannot access any of the old music. All I can find are what was on my iPhone, but that's not what I want. I need all my old music from my old Mac, which has been wiped clean by IT at my old job. BUT, I did have iCloud at that time and I thought all my music would be accessible through it. I don't understand the Cloud! And I'm thinking spending $24.99 on iTunes Match was a waste of money because I still can't access my old music.

When you are done with this issue, consider the computer back at the office may still
have access to your iTunes account, and it should be de-auhorized. You can do that
remotely, but be sure you carefully do not mess up your other computer iTunes libraries.
Good luck & happy computing!

    Thank You Cynthia62

    Just locate the itunes folder on your laptop, then locate media files then music and just click and drag to move the music from the laptop to the S5. Just be sure to move the music to the music folder on your phone and you're good to go. You don't even have to change the file format when you're moving the music over because Galaxy supports the iTunes media files.

  • Ipod nano 7th generation is playing but I cannot hear the music

    I have a 16 gb  ipod nano 7th generation.  I've followed all the instructions in syncing and all seems fine except I cannot hear the music through the earbuds, even though the ipod shows it is playing.  What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks shielafromgresham

    Hi shielafromgresham,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    If you are not getting any sound from your headphones on your iPod nano, I suggest reading over the information in the following article. Along with the information in the Acoustics section of the article, make sure the headphone jack is pushed completely into the headphone jack.
    iPod nano (7th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4433
    Acoustics
    Follow these steps if there's no sound coming from your headphones.*
    Verify that the headset is plugged in to the iPod .
    Check the volume setting.
    Try adjusting the volume by pressing the volume buttons.
    Try another song or audio file.
    Try another headset.
    Reset iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and Home buttons until you see the Apple logo appear.
    Issue not resolved
    If the issue is still not resolved, please read this information on servicing your iPod.
    Have a great day,

  • How do you get previous Itunes pruchases onto a new Ipod without syncing it to the laptop?

    I've been in Australia for over a year, my previous Ipod broke so a purchased a new Ipod touch this year. However, as my Itunes library is on my laptop back in the UK, I'm a little depleted of music on this Ipod. Is it possible to get previous Itune purchases onto my Ipod here in Australia without me flying home, or worse still having the laptop sent over? I've kept all my Itunes receipts.

    Try here:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    you might not be able to get some items back since yuo are in a differenrt country now.

  • How can I upload my CS5.5 programs to my new laptop without a CD player

    HELP!!!
    I purchased CS 5.5 illustrator/photoshop/acrobat in CD version.  I now have a new laptop which does not have a cd player.  How can I upload these programs? Adobe.com no longer has CS5 for downloads.
    I really need these programs on my new laptop fast!
    Thank you!

    Follow the directions exactly or it won't work. In fact, read the directions
    twice before even trying to download the installation files.

  • OS Change: How can I install/activate PS Elements 10 on my new Macbook without buying it again?

    I was using PS Elements 10 on my Windows (Vista) Laptop which has now a broken display so I bought a new Macbook Pro (without DVD drive). I now have problems with downloading old version (PS Elements 10) and activation because as far as I understood my old serial/license won´t work on MAC?

    Hi Tank,
    Let me address your problems one by one.
    If you are facing difficulty downloading from the link I gave you, please first login to adobe.com website. https://www.adobe.com/account/sign-in.adobedotcom.html?returnURL=https://www.adobe.com/ If you don't have an adobe id yet, you can easily make one by signing up. This adobe id would help you register all your adobe products and also many-a-times there are interesting offers.
    Once you are logged to the adobe.com, try downloading from the link again. It should work.
    For your problem of "write access", I believe its because the flash drive you used is write protected. You can always reformat your flash drive or as pointed by barbara in one of the post, you can get it done easily in any Apple store
    Now for the licence problem, I really do believe that you can still use your Windows Key for activating PSE10 on your Mac. You can drop a mail or start another post asking the top posters (barbara, 99jon or John R. Ellis for example) if you can use the key for your mac. If I were you, I would
    Download or copy the installtion file for PSE10
    install PSE10 on my Mac
    Use the free trail for 30 days.
    Try activation my PSE10 on mac using the windows key. If it fails, I would go for buying new key or converting the old one for Mac.

  • How can I keep 7.0.1 from updating to new versions without my permisssion??

    I keep reinstalling 7.0.1 and it keeps updating to 8.0.0 without my
    knowledge or consent. I do not want to keep losing support of add-ons and extensions every other day with new releases.

    thanks that works as expected. I really wish the-powers-that-be would reconsider
    the new release in what feels like a quarterly schedule. The add-on dev's need
    lead time to rework their software to be compatible with the new version's changes.
    There appears to be 3 different branches currently, couldn't the 'stable / production / release' branch be more like semi-annual or even annual so add-ons could be tested in the other two branch's to minimize incompatibility issues?

  • ITunes Store the connection with the Konto is ok but i cannot view the music in the store

    I have a problem with the store. I cannot connect to music

    Tap Settings in the Home screen then tap Sounds. You should see the ringtone just under Vibrate.
    If you don't see it there, from your iTunes menu bar click Store / Check for Available Downloads. You do not have to re purchase.
