How can I transfer the music files from my iTunes ver: 9.0.? on my external hard drive to my new laptop with the latest version of iTunes?

A few years ago I had copied my iTunes, ver:9.0.?, from my old laptop tom my external hard drive. The music on it was already loaded onto my other devices. My old computer crashed andI bought a new one, put iTunes on it and kept it updated. The problem is I forgot to keep the iTunes on my ecternal hatd drive updated. I tried to open the external hard drive iTunes but received a error with something to the effect that there was a newwerversion of iTune. I was hoping to either put the external Itunes music on my device. How can I go about that now?

Type "move itunes library" into the google search bar.

    Hello
    How do I back up my files from an intel core duo imac to an external hard drive?

    Like you do with any other Mac*:

    Note: if you have a CoreDuo, you can only upgrade up to 10.6.8.  Only Core2Duos and higher can go to 10.7 (Lion).

  • How can i transfer my music files from iPad 2 to MacBook Pro?

    hello,
    I got my mp3 files from PC and transfer to iPad 2. it works good.
    And I want to transfer this mp3 files from iPad to MacBook Pro.
    I don't know how to do it and it seems like I should 'buy some tranfer program from other website'.
    Should it word that way? or iTunes program can't deal this issue?
    I have changed some music file information (such as Album, Artist, etc) of mp3 files in iPad from iTune in MacBook. Of course, the iPad was connected to the MacBook. However after I disconnected the iPad from the Mac, those changes were not shown in the iPad (edited album name, artist name...). When I connect the iPad to the Mac again, I can see the changes in iTune in the Mac.
    Another issue.
    Does Anybody know how to set calendar from Japanese calendar to Gregorian calendar in iPad 2? When I setup the iPad first time, I might choose wrong calendar but I can't change/see the calendar option from iPad settings...
    I have been used PC for 20 years but to transfer myself to Apple, it's not easy....
    Issue 1 - music file transfer from iPad 2 to MacBook Pro
    Issue 2 - music file info udate in iPad 2 through MacBook and it doen's implied after disconnected.
    Issue 3 - Change calendar from Japanese to Gregorian in iPad 2
    Please advise,
    Have a great day!!

    A free app that can deal with music files is Songbird.
    There are two paid apps that can transfer just about any type of file; TouchCopy and PhoneView

  • How do I transfer a music file from my MacBook Pro to my iPhone?

    How do I transfer a music file from my MacBook Pro to my iPhone?

    If you download Adode Reader (free but very limited) or GoodReader (many features) - you can use file sharing.
    Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes. Select the iPad on the left side under Devices. Click on the Apps tab in the iTunes window on the right. Scroll down to the File sharing apps window. Click on the file sharing app that you are using (Adobe Reader or GoodReader in this example). Drag the document from the desktop onto the file sharing window on the right side - or click on the add button in the lower right corner - and navigate to where the file is on the Mac and select it that way.

    How can I transfer a sound file from my "Voice Memos" app on my iPhone to my iPad?

    In iTunes with your iPhone connected, click on the iPhone device, select the Apps tab, scroll down to the File Sharing section and pick an app that plays Quicktimes ("Files Connect" works in this example, but I'm open to suggestions of better apps for playing transferred Quicktimes) and drag your Quicktime from Finder to the Documents pane for the File Sharing app.   Once the file transfer is complete, go to the app on your iPhone to play the Quicktime.

  • How can I transfer all my files from Mavericks Thunderbird to Mavericks Mail

    How can I transfer all my files from Mavericks Thunderbird to Mavericks Mail?
    Bonjour,
    C'est ma première intervention aussi je ne sais pas si je peux m'exprimer en français.
    Je tente!
    Lors du passage à Maveicks, j'ai basculé sur Thunderbird car je ne souhaitais pas utiliser POP mais Mail ne le permettait pas (du moins je n'ai pas réussi)
    Aujourd'hui, je souhaite revenir sur Mail et, pour celà, je dois rapatrier toutes mes données de messagerie depuis Thunderbird.
    J'utilise Imap et, pour gérer ma messagerie, j'ai créé des boîtes aux lettres dans Local Folsders
    Le passage par Eudora ne fonctionne pas avec Mavericks.
    L'import de boîtes aux lettres depuis Local Folders de Thunderbird (via le menu Fichier) ne permet de transférer qu'un seul courier par boîte aux lettres de Local Folders. Et c'est ce qui m'empêche de passer à Mail.
    Merci d'avance pour votre aide.

  • ITunes wont open from my external hard drive onto my new laptop

    i have an external hard drive connected to my desktop with all my itunes music on there. but when i connect the external to my new laptop, itunes wont open. it says i dont have itunes support or something like that. and the reason i have my music on the external is so i CAN open itunes from another computer. but this isnt happening right now. someone please help.

    yea it is an error 2
    Many thanks.
    We'll try a "standalone" installation of Apple Application Support, then. (It may not install, but at least we'll have a better idea of what the problem is, based on any error messages we might get.)
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us no what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • How do I transfer my music files from Sony Sonic Stage to iTunes?

    When iTunes prompts me to transfer my music files into iTunes the files in Sonic Stage are not transfered and I cannot find a way to transfer them over.
    Dell Inspiron 1150   Windows XP  

    I tried to transfer songs from Sonic Stage but the formats simply aren't compatible. I ended up burning all of the songs I'd purchased with Sonic Stage onto cd's and importing them in to iTunes. Pain in the butt and time consuming but at least I didn't lose my music.
    Don't trash your Sonic Stage though! I moved my songs to iTunes and now am unable to burn with it. I'm so glad I didn't wipe out everything from Sonic Stage since I've reverted back to using it when I have to burn or if I want to do a compilation cd. Can't hurt to cover your bases.
