  • How do i transfer the music from my iphone 4 to my new laptop which uses Windows 8?

         So yesterday I bought a new laptop for college. I have an iPhone 4 with all my music and stuff on it, and i want to transfer the songs that are on my iphone to my new computer.

    Hello there, parker428.
    The following Knowledge Base article should prove very helpful:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
    Specifically the following:
    Transferring purchases
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod has your purchased content from the iTunes Store, you can transfer the content to a computer that is authorized for your Apple ID.
    Note: This option only works for content you purchased from the iTunes Store (as opposed to content from other sources, such as CDs you may have imported). For content you did not purchase from the iTunes Store,synchronization occurs in one direction only. This means your content can be copied from a computer to your iOS device, but cannot be copied from your device to a computer.
    Open iTunes.
    From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer.
    Enter your Apple ID and password. Then, click the Authorize button.
    Connect your device your computer. If it is synced with another iTunes library, you may be asked if you want to "Erase and Sync" or "Transfer Purchases."
    If that alert appears, click Transfer Purchases.
    Important: Clicking Erase and Sync will delete any existing content currently on your device. The content would then be replaced with the content that is on the computer.
    If you were not offered the option to transfer purchases:
    After connecting your device to the computer, its icon appears in iTunes. Click the icon.
    From the File > Devices menu, choose "Transfer Purchases from 'Your device name.'"
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • How do I transfer my data on my iphone to a brand new laptop/itunes.

    Hi all,
    I seriously need some help from the iphone expert here, I got my iphone last week & this is my very first apple product, so I was kind of confuse.
    May I know how do I transfer all my phone data to a laptop which have nv sync with the phone before one? I installed itunes in the laptop already but when I plug in my phone & sync, nothing was transfer from my phone to itunes or my laptop.
    Is it becos if I previously used another PC to do the syncing/updates, I have to use that PC back in future? how do I transfer from the usual PC to my laptop to sync with my iphone?
    A million thanks to whoever can help me with this.

    In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced or manually managed with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred to an iPhone via the iTunes sync process from a single computer.
    When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
    You can sync contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks with the supported applications on multiple computers.
    You need to transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer - transfer the iTunes named folder from your old computer to your new computer placing the iTunes named folder in the same location on your new computer with iTunes quit before doing so. You also need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so.
    You also need to transfer all photos along with any other data on your old computer that you need or want to access on your new computer. You can do this with an external drive used for backup purposed, or if you have the computers networked in some fashion.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    Have you failed to do this?
    If so, not good, then you may be able to purchase third party software to extract the music from your iphone.  This is not supported by Apple.

    If you're talking about music and movies an i-device was not designed for unique storage of media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing music and movies is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred from a device to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • How do i put the song from the hard drive back in the new itunes library?

    I had a laptop with music in the itunes library. I put the music from there in a hard drive. I bought a new laptop. How do i put the songs  from the hard drive back into the itunes library on my new laptop.

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

    You need to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.
    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.
    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.
    You can transfer itunes purchases.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • How do I upload the contacts from my iPhone 5S to the Bluetooth device on my Toyota RAV4.  The car manual says to consult the phone's bluetooth instruction manual, but I don't have one.

    How do I upload the contacts from my iPhone 5S to the Bluetooth device on my Toyota RAV4?  The car manual says to consult the phone's Bluetooth instruction manual, but I don't have a manual for that.

    That is very strange... I wonder if it has something to do with the firmware or some sort of error. I haven't ran into this but at the shop I work at I've ran into several firmware errors on iPhone 4 all the way through the 5s. Maybe its something as simple as putting a different part of the code into iTunes... I know you can something of this extent. I would look up error 1669, I know you have tried a number of things but look it up on the forum and see what fixes are available so that you may be able to restore it properly without all this garbage you are running into. Just a thought for you.

  • My partner has my former iPad 1, I have an iPhone 5 and iPad Gen III.  I want to copy my contacts list to his iPad.  We both have Apple ID's and we share a PC.  How do i copy the contacts from my iPhone, iCloud or iPad to his iPad 1?

    The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
    Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
    also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
    and the iTunes Match services.
    (I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
    If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
    iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
    and
    iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
    In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

  • How can I add the content from a iPod Nano to a new iTunes account

    how can I add the content from a iPod Nano to a new iTunes account

    On the computer in iTunes log into her Apple ID and then see if recent purchases are shown by clicking on her name in iTunes, entering her password and then selecting the option. If there is nothing there then she bought that music with a different Apple ID.
    You can use TouchCopy to move all the songs on the iPod to the computer. Then try to play one of the purchase songs and it should show the account used to purchase it and ask for the password.
