How do I get Music from my iPhone to my computer. I have connected them, and backed up the phone to my computer. The music on the phone that I want on the computer are from CDs I no longer have. S.O.S.
Music got deleted off of my Mac.
It is currently on one of the iPhones my family possesses.
How do I get it from the phone to the computer.
I have tried:
Connecting it to the computer (the "sync" message cam up, It said I dont have enough room on Phone)
I backed up the phone onto the computer
No. It's not impossible, but it's not free.

How can I get all my songs (from CDs) onto my laptop from my Nano?
Do I have to rip all those CDs again even though they are on the Nano?
I thought I was allowed to have multiple PCs and use the sync feature. Yet when I plug in the Nano the message says it will sync to what's on my laptop which are only a few songs I've purchased!!
I thought Apple was better than that?! And to think I was going to purchase an iPad! But if I can't synch my music to other devices, why bother.
In order to get my music to iCloud via iMatch, I guess I have to rip them all again! What a pain in the butt...:(See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

How can i get iCloud on my iPhone 3g it doesn't have software update or any graphics plz help
please help how can i get graphics and sftware download on my iphone i have no update on my ph either
If you have a 3G you can't use iCloud as iCloud requires iOS 5 or higher and the 3G cannot be updated beyond iOS 4.2.1.
If you have a 3GS, update it to iOS 6 by connecting it to iTunes. If you aren't prompted to update, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Check for Update. After updating you can set it up as shown here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html. -
I have old music, apps, podcasts, books, and movies that I have already purcahsed. I am just setting my iCloud up, and I can't get anything onto it from my PC. And is it possible to keep stuff in the iCloud and only have it on my PC and not my iphone?
Thank you,
iCloud Rookie.Music is not included in the iPhone backup, because it is already on your computer, so why duplicate it?
Music can only be synced to one computer at a time, so if you change computers the contents of the iOS device will be replaced by what is on the latest computer.
If you have an iCloud backup and your music is saved to iCloud you can restore it by going to Settings/General/Reset - Erase all content and settings. When this completes it will ask if you want to restore your iCloud content. -
HT201317 How do I get photos off my iphone to print?
How do I get photos off my iphone to print? I have over 1000 photos.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you have a computer, connect the phone with a USB cable and import the photos in the same way you would import them from a camera. -
How do I get music onto my iPhone without having to download it from the Cloud? My iPhone gives the error "sync will resume when "computer" is available" on the final step of synching. The computer says "waiting for changes to be applied" but the phone doesn't have the two little sync arrows anymore. Seems it will stay like that for hours if I don't cancel it. I've tried syncing the songs with the cord & without the cord; using only purchased music or only a few songs. I've restarted both devices & both are updated with the latest software. My phone says it hasn't synced in 5 months, even though I've tried. WiFi is working. I've tried checking and unchecking the box in iTunes. I've turned Windows Firewall on/off. Ran the diagnostics in iTunes. Nothing seems to work. Help!
Hello Megurine Lockhart,
I would recommend re syncing the music to the phone from iTunes by unchecking the sync music checkbox in iTunes, sync, then re check it and sync again.
For reference this is what I mean:
Syncing music
Connect your iPod to your computer and open iTunes.
Select your your iPod in the Devices section on the left side of the iTunes window.
In the main iTunes browser window, select Music.
Select the option to Sync Music. You may also select "Include Music videos" if you would like to sync Music videos to a device.

The article references an iPod but its the same for an iPhone.
All the best,

The rest of my music is still on my iPad, so how do I get it from my iPad to the computer, and back on my phone? All my music is sitting there safely on my iPad, but whenever I try to sync it with my computer the only option I get is to wipe the iPad and replace it with the files on the computer---which is only a fraction of what I had originally. How do I fix this?? It even deleted my playlists, and I now only have some 200 songs left out of what used to be over 1000!
It can not do that all by itself.
When you plugged it in, iTunes said 'Oh goody! You got a new phone! Would you like to make it just like your old phone?'...
You explicitly said 'Yes'.
You can't undo that.
No backup of the current state of the new phone was made. It was wiped and the last backup of your old phone was restored to it.
Anything you had on the new phone is gone. -
How do I get music from my iPod to computer
My desktop computer crashed and needed to be re-formatted. Luckily, I had backed up all of my downloaded music on an external hard drive. Unfortunately, I did not have all of the music from CD's on my iTunes backed up.
So in other words, I have an iPod with ALL of my songs...both downloaded and from music CD's. I have a computer with my downloaded songs. How can I get music (from cd's) from my iPod back to my computer? I no longer have all of the music CD's to just put them back on.iTunes will only let you copy your purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
For everything else (including purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide -
When I use Home Sharing, I can see the library I want to copy under Shared, but I can't get it save on the computer under the regular library. I go to edit and "select all" but there is no import button that is in the right hand corner. Also, it will not let me click and drag the music. How do I get it from one computer to the other?
Since both computers are connected via the network, you could simply copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from one computer to another via the network.
If both computers are running Windows, use the Easy File Transfer Utility built into Windows to move iTunes and all other user media/data. -

You should copy everything (files/docs/music/pics/contacts/calendars/etc) from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one. -

How do i get music from my ipod nano onto my iphone 3g????
You don't.

Everything that is on your Nano should be in itunes on your computer, as that is where it came from in the first place.
Just sync whatever you like to your iphone. -

You can only transfer music purchased from the iTunes store from your phone to your computer. To do this, authorize iTunes for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music in Store>Authorize This Computer, then connect your phone to your computer and in iTunes go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.
To transfer music from other sources from your phone to your computer, you'll have to use 3rd party software such as Touch Copy. -
