I had about 6000 songs on my old computer in Itunes. 1000 I bought from Itunes, the rest I downloaded from CD's I owned. I was able to down load the Itunes songs but not my library of cd music. How do I download those songs into my new computer?

I have 6000 songs in itunes (in my Ipod and old laptop).
I was able to download the songs I purchased directly from itunes to my new laptop but the 5000 songs  I loaded into itunes from my old laptop using my own CD's won't transfer... or I don't know how.
When I plug in my Ipod to my new laptop, I get a message that says the Ipod library is linked to my old laptop and the library can only be linked to one computer at a time.
Any ideas how to resolve this situation?

Copy them from your old computer, or your backuo copy of your old computer. to your new one.
The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  the exception is itunes purchases.

    Either redownload them directly to the iPod by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    or sync them to your iPod via iTunes

  • HT203167 I ordered and paid for a movie without being on wifi or connected to my laptop.  I have not been able to down load the movie that I paid for so how do I get it down loaded?

    I have a couple of questions.  I down loaded a movie when I was not hooked up to wifi or connected to my laptop.  I was charged for the movie but I have not been able to down load it or find it anywhere in my account. 
    Question:
    1.  Where do I find this movie and how do I get it down loaded to my I Pad?
    When I signed in to ask this question I had to go through a lot of sign in problems and also create a user name that is completely different that any of the sing in information that I have used previously.   Which create a lot of questions:
    1.  Why did I have to create a user name that I never had to do before?
    2.  Will this change the sign in process in the future?
    I will appreciate the answers to these questions
    Thank you very much.

    yes it could well do if your bank thinks there is something going on that is not from you they will block it. I have had this problem before, I would of thought they would of phoned me but they don't do that.
    If I was you I would go to my bank make sure they are not doing anything like that. If they say it's all fine then i would phone up apple them self or go into my local apple store, as they should be able to look at what there servers are saying why it's not working.

  • Hard drive crashed awhile ago, got new one but now some of my purchased iTunes songs are showing they are downloaded but NOT in library and it won't let me download to library.  any help?

    Asking for help getting previous purchases on my ipod touch and iPad... my computer hard drive crashed and I replaced it.  My music was a mess.  I restored most back but some of my purchased music is saying it is downloaded but it is nowhere to be found.  I don't understand why I can't get the music I already paid for back in my library.  Any help?   would be appreciated... 

    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Are you doing this?
    You have to sign in and download each iTunes account individually.

  • HT4061 I have just recently bought an iphone 4s and the techs could transfer my contacts from my samsung galaxy mini but not my photos or my music.How do I do this?

    I have just recently bought an iphone 4s and the tchs in the shop transferred all my contacts from my Samsung galaxy mini to my iphone for me bought they could not transfer my photos or my small amount of music.How do I do this?
    Given that I am a complete novice,some straight forward and simple advice would be helpful folks.

    Get the Samsung Kies application to transfer it onto your computer, and then use iTunes to add it to your iPhone.

  • When I tried to open firefox nothing happens. I was able to open another type of browser but not firefox.

    Firefox suddenly closed on me while trying to browse a page. When I tried to reopen it nothing happend. I even tried launching from the task manager Nothing. I have loged off and restarted my computer and uninstalled and reinstalled firefox. Still nothing. It's not my internet because I'm browsing fine on explorer. Firefox is my favorite browser and i would hate to not have it but if it does not work I will have to change browsers.

    Hi prubright, '''try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if you can start firefox with that way. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    Try to start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows onWindows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
    ;[[Image:SafeMode-Fx35]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    '''otherwise''', try to boot the computer in [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-7 Windows Safe Mode with network support] (press F8 on the boot screen) and then see if that allows to start firefox.
    thank you

  • I am not able to down load the updated version. I have tried several times, the filed is saved many times, but it seems not to update. What am I doing wrong?

    I am trying to update Firefox, but am unable to. I have gone through all of the steps and it seems to not update. I have saved your files several time due to my many tires but the update seems not to go through. What am I doing wrong?

    If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version and delete the Firefox program folder to remove any leftover files.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data because all profile folders will be removed.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • HT4101 I have photos on an SD card.  when I plug iCard reader into ipd3 it says no photos found.  I was able to import some photos at first but not now.  What gives?

    I have photos on a 4g SD card.  When I plug iCard reader int iPad it says : No photos found.  I had used this method to a few pics on iPad when I first got it, but it doesn't  work now.  What gives?

    How did the photos get onto the card ? If you copied them onto it from your computer then you need to create a DCIM directory off the root of the card, with the photos underneath it, and the photo filenames need to be exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension i.e. in a similar format as if a camera had created/written them

  • Want songs in playlist but not in library

    so i have a CD with thousands of short japanese recordings on it, the only way i believe that i can get them onto my iphone/ipod is through adding them to itunes. However when i hit shuffle songs the likelihood of getting a japanese recording instead of a song is very high.
    CAN I ADD THESE RECORDINGS TO MY IPHONE/IPOD IN AN ITUNES PLAYLIST, BUT NOT IN LIBRARY?
    or is there an alternate way to listen to these without disrupting itunes?
    cheers

    You can't have them in a playlist unless they are first in your library.  If you delete them from your library, you also delete them from any playlist.
    You should select all your Japanese tracks and open the "Get Info" window (iTunes File menu > Get Info).  Select the Options tab and check "Skip when shuffling" and click OK.

  • Turned Match off and songs that had been deleted from my hard drive (but NOT deleted from my library) disappeared - how can I get those songs to reappear in my library without manually re-adding the matched files that I had deleted from my hard drive?

    I was trying to turn off iTunes Match on my iPhone and first turned Match off on my MacBook rather than on my iPhone (which was wrong, I should have just turned it off on the iPhone).  I had ~28,000 songs in my library when I turned off iTunes Match; I had deleted ~8,000 of those files from my laptop (which I backed up on a portable hard disk) but I left the deleted files in my library, so that I could play them through iTunes Match.  One of the benefits of Match, right?  Saving hard drive space.  So I turned off iTunes Match on my MacBook thinking that was how to turn it off on the iPhone (it wasn't), and when I turned Match back on, those ~8,000 songs were not in my library.  I tried to update Match several times but can't seem to get the songs back.  I know they are still in the cloud somewhere though, because if Match restarted then it would match/upload all of my remaining ~20,000 songs - but it hasn't, I still have thousands of "exceeded limit" songs.  Anyone know how I can get those songs back?

    "One of the benefits of Match, right?  Saving hard drive space."
    I would not use iTunes Match as a backup. There are too many bugs and I don't think that's what they intended it to be anyway. The main advantage of using it is to make your music available on OTHER devices, not to replace the music on your original computer.
