I have DRM protected music from an old iTunes account that will not upload to Match?
Your computer needs to be authorized with the "old" Apple ID. Pull done Store > Authorize... And type the credentials when prompted.

I have an old ipod nano (2nd generation) with music on it from an old itunes account from a few years ago. I have a new itunes account now. How do I get the music (that I purchased) transferred into my new itunes library?
Hi sid1010,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
You can redownload music that you have purchased directly to your iTunes Library. Here's how:
Downloading past purchases from the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store

HT1918 how do get my music from my old itunes account
how can i get my music from my old itunes account
Welcome to the Apple Community.

Moving your iTunes library to a new computer -
I have an old iTunes account on an old PC. I bought a new MacBook Air less than a year ago. When I was at the store, purchasing my new Mac, I couldn't remember my old iTunes account password. The sales rep encouraged me to open a new iTunes account, and assured me I would be able to merge the two accounts. I have put very little music on my new iTunes account, and I want to figure out how to transfer my old account onto my new computer. I am about to purchase the new iPhone, which I will use as my main music source since my old iPod just died. I want to make this transfer before I make my new purchase, as I will be getting a $50 iTunes credit, and I need to know which account to attach it to. (Also, I was given an iTunes credit on my new iTunes account when I purchased my MacBook Air, which I have not fully used yet.)
Thanks for your prompt response, Niel. I had already seen that link. So, my question is if I can't merge the accounts, then what will happen when I move my old library to my new computer? Will the new computer then have the two separate libraries or will the old library replace the new library?
Also, if both libraries can co-exist on my new computer, it sounds like I will have to choose which library I want to put on my new iPhone, correct? I won't be able to put music from both, is this right? -
Hard drive crashed, I restored my itunes music from a backup, but the backup was not updated, I'm missing music that I have on my iphone playlist, this music I got from a friend, I didn't buy it from itunes. Question: How can I get this musica from the iphone into my itunes library???
Thank's for the help!!!The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases.
You may be able to purchase a third party program ( not supported by Apple). -
How do I move my music from an old iTunes account to a new one?
I want to start a new itunes account for my daughter now that she is a teen so that we dont get all each others music. How do I get her 500 songs onto her own new itunes account without having to repurchase them all?
Only the iTunes Store staff can do that if it's possible at all.

My songs show up on my Iphone and Ipad but not on my PC. Why is that? It only shows recent downloads and some newer files but nothing prior to that.
How do I import my songs on my Iphone/Ipad on to my PC.Wish you could get an answer--because I'm having this problem with my iPod Tough 4gen. I also can't get any music onto the device.

How do I get a prompt for my new account when updating existing apps? I had used one of my sons account for most of the apps on my iPhone. I have since move up to a iPhone 4S and created my own account to use iCloud. But everytime I try to update the exiting apps I am prompted for a password to my sons account. I am logged on to iCloud with my new account at the same time.
It looks like the apps retain some kind of tag to the original account used during download.
Any help would be appreciated.Change the account in the iPhones settings

Old computor crashed and burned. purchase new lenovo lap top with windows 7. got new itunes account. with new usename and password. how do I retrieve my old music libraries from my old itunes account.
Why did you start a new itunes account? This will just cause problems.
Your library will only be where you put it.
It has alwasys been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good at all, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

I'm setting up my new iPhone and already have an iTunes account. It's asking me if I would like to set up as a new iPhone, or Restore from the backup of my iTouch. If i set up as a new iPhone will that delete all my music from my previous iTunes account?
It will not do anything at all to your computer.

I have an iPhone 4s, but wifi the option is greyed out. The wifi stopped working on it months ago. Now I wanted to erase all content and setting from my old 4s and it will not connect to the internet, because the cellular data is no longer connected, since I bought a new iPhone 5c. I can't erase my phone by pluggin it into my Macbook Pro, since I can't disable the "Find my iPhone" App without internet. How do I erase all the data and setting on my 4s without connecting to the internet? It is running ios 7

I just did it. To enter DFU mode, I had to use "method 3" on this post
http://thebigboss.org/guides-iphone-ipod-ipad/dfu-mode
Too bad my 4S is 2 years old. Wifi is dead. I had to upgrade to 5S, but 5S is soooooo much faster than 4S so it's kind of good outcome. Without the 4S breaking down, a stingy person like me would have never upgraded the phone. -

Problems Syncing from an old Itunes Account
When I first bought my IPOD Nano (4th Gen) I must have sync'd it with an old Itunes Account. How can I move the songs on my IPOD to my New Account if I don't know the old account name or password?
You can't. Purchases made with the older Apple ID are tied to that particular account forever. You'll need to reset the password to that account. If you don't know either the password or username, you'll want to contact Apple Support for assistance.
