HT1329 How can I sync my iPod touch with a new laptop without losing apps, books, and music?

My new laptop is already authorized and I have all my music in the iTunes library. I just need to able to get all my apps on it and I need to be able to sync without anything being deleted. Please help.

Move or copy all the content from the old computer or the backup of the old computer to the new computer.
iDevices are NOT backup devices.

  • My laptop recently broke and I had to buy a new one. How do I sync my iphone 4 with the new laptop without losing all data?

    Hi there,
    Well the title says it all really.
    I have to sync my iphone 4 with my new laptop as the old one broke. How do I do this without losing all my pictures, music, contacts & things purchased form the itunes store?
    It seems really silly that everything gets wiped off the phone when using a different laptop. This problem must happen quite often as I am sure I am not the only person who has had a pc that has broken.
    I hope you someone can help. All the stuff on my phone is important to me.
    Many thanks

  • How do i sync my iPod touch with my new laptop?

    I use to have a dell computer with my itunes library on it. I downloaded music on the dell and synced it to my ipod touch. But, the dell computer crashed and i am unable to access my original itunes library. Now i bought a new macbook pro and would like to sync all of my music from my ipod to my new computer but i am not sure how. Itunes gives me the option to delete all music currently on my ipod or only transfer purchased items from my ipod into my new library...but not all of my songs/movies were purchased or purchased through itunes.

    Youll have to find a 3rd party program to pull your stuff off your ipod. I know there are some out there for the pc, not sure about for mac, but Im sure theres got to be. Itunes wont pull stuff off your ipod that you didnt buy from itunes, not even sure itll pull everything ya bought through itunes either.

  • How do I sync my iPod Touch to a new account without losing playlists?

    Hey, everyone. Recently, one of my computers, which I used to sync my iPod to, crashed. Luckily, my music was backed up on another computer, but the playlists, apps, etc. were not. Is there a way for me to download my playlists and such onto this new computer without deleting the music (some of which isn't currently on my iPod; the library is too large for all songs to fit on the iPod)? I'm leaving on a road trip early tomorrow morning and I'd really appreciate it if you all could help me out before then so I can have some great music for the road!

    P.S. My iPod is a second-generation, and my computer is a PC with Windows XP. The version of iTunes that I have is pretty new, but my iPod hasn't been updated in a while, if that makes any difference. A quick fix would be awesome because of the previously mentioned time constraints

    You can transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - You can transfer non-Tunes purchases by using a thirds-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    - You can also redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - You can mov music from one comuter to another by:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    - You will likely lose the playlists but you can move the music to the new computer.
    - After everything is on the new computer you can retain app date and other iPod settings by:
    - Connecting the iPod to the the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod undere Devices in iTunes and select Back Up.
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.

  • My computer was stolen. How do I sync my ipod touch with my new computer without wiping all the music

    My laptop was stolen and now when I try to sync my music it wants to wipe my ipod touch 5th generation. How do I get around this ?

    There are quite a few third party apps that will copy media from the ipod to the computer. Try searching the cnet downloads site or other reputable sites.
    Good luck!

  • HT1296 I bought a new computer and I want to sync my iPod Touch with the new computer without losing data.

    I bought a new computer and want to use the new computer to sync data with my iPod touch.  I understand that you can only sync a device with one computer at a time.  This if fine because I don't care to sync my iPod with the old computer anymore.  How do I set up my new computer to be the computer that syncs with my iPod touch from now on, without losing any data?

    You don't.
    When you sync to a different computer it erases the content from the ipod and replaces it with the data from the new computer.
    Just copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one, then sync

  • How can I sync the ipod touch with windows 7 64 bit

    How can I sync the ipod touch with Outlook on windows 7 64 bit?

    I'm having the same problem with Windows 7, iTunes has been spotty about recognizing my iPod Touch. Now that I've updates Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 (June 2011), It won't complete a sync or a restore at all on either of my Windows 7 computers.
    I have gone through every troubleshooter action recommended by Apple Support, and have not been able to improve the situation at all.
    I took my Touch to the Genius Bar at my local Apple Store after trying and failing to complete a restore while troubleshooting, and it restored just fine from a Mac.  Unfortunately, it now gives me an error meesage (Incompatible device) half way through an attempted sync, or iTunes simply freezes.
    I even tried removing the Windows SP1, but that was a mess, as my display went all whacky and iTunes crashed immediately upon startup.
    The Windows 7 OS ***** in general, particularly with compatibility issues, and not just for Apple products.
    Does anyone know how to remedy this situation?
    I'm so frustrated and have wasted so much time on this issue that I'm going to throw it all out the window!

    If the answer to the above question is "yes", FIRST, set up a backup of your new computer before you do anything else so the next time your computer breaks you will not be in the same situation. Backup solutions are numerous and inexpensive, and there is absolutely no excuse in the Third Millennium not to have one.
    Then see this tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

    Can't get my Music off of my iPhone 4...
    My computer died & had to get a new one, so now I cannot sync my iPhone 4 with the new computer, without losing all of my Music, because the only Music I have is on the iPhone 4 only, not on the computer. No Backup anywhere : (

    How do I replace the music library on my Computer with the Music on the iPhone?
    I got my pictures off because you can access them when you connect the iPhone using Windows 7 but you cannot see any of the music so you cannot access it when using windows so don't know what to do...
    Help...

    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  File>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer.

  • I can't sync my iPod Touch with my new Macbook.

    I'm having trouble syncing my iPod touch with my new Macbook Air and I don't know what to do. I've managed to get all my music and films etc. off my old iTunes library but when I plug my iPod into the computer, it doesn't come up with the typical 'erase/replace or transfer' message that you get when you plug it into other computers. Someone please help because it is driving me insane. The iPod was originally synced with a Windows computer and I think this might be what is causing my problem but I really need help fixing it. Thanks!

    Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to new computer.
    but when I plug my iPod into the computer, it doesn't come up with the typical 'erase/replace or transfer' message that you get when you plug it into other computers.
    What does happen?

  • How can I sync my iPod Touch to a new computer?

    My Laptop's hard drive died: that's bad enough, but my data was backed up onto my iPod Touch, including some very rare tunes that I can't ever get again. I then installed iTunes onto my wife's desktop, but now I'm told that if I want to sync the iPod, I have to delete everything that's on it as the iPod is already synced to another computer - which now doesn't exist.
    I thought that backing up my rare music to my iPod made it safe; it was on my hard drive and my iPod. Now I'm told that if I want to sync my iPod to another computer I have to delete its contents. I can't afford to lose the music, because I can't replace it. Surely this can't be right?
    Incidentally, because I can't sync my iPod I have missed at least 2 appointments because my calendar isn't updated.
    I understand that Apple are worried about data being copied from one computer to another, but surely there must be a way to register a new computer as one to which I should sync?.
