  • Transfer iTunes from iPhone onto new MacBook Pro...?

    Many of my songs are...well, all of them are...not strictly speaking, downloaded from iTunes. Most of them I downloaded from mediafire, 4shared, etc...I recently purchased a MacBook Pro, and I'm trying to transfer all of my music that I downloaded onto my iPhone onto my MacBook, but it seems that syncing it won't do the task - either because the music is not back up on iTunes, or simply because of the way that the iPhone is configured (it has a different syncing process than a regular iPod). I looked up some answers on Google, but all of them require me to download programs, and I'm not sure I want to put my computer at that sort of risk. Is there an easy solution to this problem?
    Thanks,
    Paula

  • How to transfer iTunes Library/iPhone data from PC to Mac?

    Hi,
    I have just started using my Mac Mini. This is my first mac.
    I need to copy my iTunes Library from my PC to Mac.
    I searched for a solution and most of them advise to simply copy the iTunes folder to my Mac.
    The problem is I am not sure if this approach will preserve my album ratings/playlist/playcounts/album art.
    Most important, I wonder if this will transfer my iPhone data as well or not.
    My contacts and stuff on iPhone are crucial to me. I need to be able to plug in my iPhone to my Mac and not be worried about losing my previous data.
    Any suggestions?
    I am running leopard and am on wifi. I can transfer files over wifi.

    The Apple store will do this for you.
    You can call Apple Support and they will walk you through it.
    You can type "move itunes library from pc to mac" into the google search bar.

  • Transfer itunes from iphone back to my computer

    I've accidentally deleted my itunes library (which I was storing on an external hard drive). How can I transfer/recover my itunes library from my iphone back to my computer?

    Anything your purchased from the iTunes store can be redownloaded on your computer.
    In iTunes on your computer, go to the iTunes Store and on the main screen on the right under Quick Links select Purchased.
    Any other music that you burned from CD's yourself, for example, can't be directly moved from the iPhone back to your computer.

  • How transfer iTunes from iPhone to Computer

    iTunes cautions me before I upgrade to newer software, that I have iTunes paid for on iPHone that should be "transferred" to my computer.  But after synching repeatedly, I still get the same warning.  What must I do to overcome this?

    Hello, Wandering Aengus. 
    Thank you for the question.  You may find these articles helpful in troubleshooting the authorization and transfer of purchases issue.

    Also, if the issue persists, there may be applications or media on your iPhone that was purchased with another Apple ID.

  • How do I get all of the music on my computer to transfer to my Iphone?  For some reason, itunes has picked up some songs but not others.  example, I have several CD's loaded in which only 1 or 2 songs from the CD shows up in itunes.

    I have about 70 Cd's loaded on my computer as I had previously owned another MP3 device before I got enamored with the Ipad and Iphone. My problem is itunes will not recognize all of this music.  To give a specific example, I have an old Bon Jovi Cd "crossroads" , itunes only recognizes 2 songs off the Cd.  How can I get itunes to recognize these songs?  They do not show up on itunes anywhere but if i go to my music folder I can locate the songs and it even shows the itunes logo but, the songs will not play with itunes.  I've got a few hours of music i would like to have on my iphone. Can anyone please help me with this?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
    Use your backup copy to put everything on the computer, then sync.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone to your computer - File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

  • I have purchased actual ring tones, not songs or MP3s, RING TONES.  They used to be on my Iphone but when I got a new laptop and downloaded new ITunes, they are showing up in Itunes in RINGTONES, but will not transfer to my iphone. They are checked. Help?

    I have purchased actual ringtones from the ITunes store.  They were working fine on my Iphone 3 before, but I got a new laptop and the new version of ITunes, and now even though they are listed as ring tones on my ITunes, they will not transfer to my Iphone.  (Please do not tell me they are songs and not ring tones, they are definitely RING TONES!)  Can anyone help me with this?  Thanks.

    Use the Transfer Purchases command in the File menu of iTunes.

  • I just noticed that some of the movies I had in iTunes did not get transferred to the iPhone. The missing movies are shown as generic movie icons in the iTunes panel. How do I get the original movies to show up again and transfer to the iPhone?

    I just noticed that some of the movies I had in iTunes did not get transferred to the iPhone 5. The missing movies are shown as generic movie icons in the iTunes panel and are checked to select them. But they do not show up in iPhone Videos. How do I get the original movies to show up again and transfer to the iPhone? I recently upgraded Mac OS to 10.6.8

    1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
    2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

  • I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentione

    I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentioned since they were purchased. Is there any way to get the ipad music transferred to the computer?

    And they were definitely purchased from the iTunes store, they show on the account's purchase history (Store > View Account on a computer's iTunes, or you can view the last 90 days purchases via http://reportaproblem.apple.com) ?
    You could potentially log into the account on that computer's iTunes (Store > Sign Out to log out of your account, that will then change to a Store > Sign In option) and redownload them by clicking on the id towards the top right of the iTunes screen and Purchased on the popup :
    But that will potentially tie that computer to that account for 90 days : Manage your associated devices in iTunes - Apple Support
    Or do you have a different computer that you could redownload them on and then copy them over to that computer via a flash drive or memory card, and then add them to its iTunes via File > Add To Library ?

  • I was trying to transfer iTunes from my iPhone 4 to my new Mac Pro and now all i can get on my phone is the iTunes logo and a usb cord pointing to plug into it.  my phone wont do anything else? Help if you can?

    I was trying to transfer itunes to my macpro from my iphone 4 and the phone froze up with the itunes logo and a usb cord looking like its suppose to plug into the itunes.. Now my phone wont go past that screen and i cant use the phone at all... Help if you can?

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

  • Every movie purchase through iTunes fails to transfer to my iPhone or iPad and the message I get is this: some of the items in the itunes library, including were not copied to the ipad because you are not authorized for them on this computer... help?

    For a couple months now, every movie purchase through iTunes fails to transfer to my iPhone or iPad giving me the error: "some of the items in the iTunes library, including were not copied to the iPad because you are not authorized for them on this computer". I have read many forums about deleting, reinstalling, de-authorizing and authorizing my iMac through the iTunes store. Many suggestions don't work except to rename the movie to *.MP4 in Finder under the iTunes movie directory. I imagine this is a setting or a bug somewhere... any suggestions on how to bypass having to rename the files in Finder? My research into Google suggests this problem dates back to 2007 or so but it is now more prevalent than ever.
    Thanks.

  • Is it possible to transfer music between iPhones and iPods with out using iTunes

    Is it possible to transfer music between iPhones and iPods with out using iTunes

    Nope.  Both require iTunes on a computer to sync music from.
    Unless the iPod is an iPod Touch and the music was bought from iTunes.  In which case the Touch can simply go to the iTunes App, under Purchased  and download the purchased songs for free.
