I purchased a new computer.  Why when I log in to itunes does my library not show up?

I'm confused....if itunes is basically storing your music for you and you log in, why doesn't that automatically default to your account and display all of you music.  What's really strange is, if I have my old laptop on and I am logged into itunes it showed up on my new laptop.  But when I log out, it's gone

  • My Ipad has been stolen...I've purchase a new one and when trying to restore a previous back up, the system showed me a different Apple ID. Can it be the ID of the one who has my Ipad ?

    My Ipad has been stolen at home.
    I've purchase a new one and when trying to restore a backup from I cloud the Ipad showed me a different Apple ID than mine and refused my Apple ID.
    Can it be this ID (which is an email adress) is the email of the one having my stolen IPAD ?
    THANKS
    Olivier

    The appleid its showing you is associated with one of the apps / songs or another purchase that was on the device the last time it was backed up which it needs to download the app / purchase again. It won't be from the person who has your ipad now unless they downloaded it and then your device was backed up afterwords, so only if the backup date was listed as AFTER your device was lost / stolen.
    Thanks

    To have  EVERYTHING  on your New computer...
    From your OLD computer...
    Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

    Hello Mariola,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iTunes purchases.  I recommend downloading your purchases directly to your computer using the Purchases page in the iTunes Store:
    Download previous iTunes Store purchases to an authorized computer
    Click iTunes Store near the top of the iTunes window.
    Click the Purchased link at the right of the iTunes Store homepage (below Quick Links).
    In the page that appears, select a category. 
    iTunes shows you which of your purchases are available for download. You can view all of your past purchases, or just the ones not currently in your iTunes library. Items already in your library aren’t available for download. If you select Music, you can view your purchases by song, artist, or album. If you’re viewing by album, click an album to see which songs on it are available for downloading.
    To download all available items, click Download All.

  • New computer. how to put songs on my ipod to my library, not just purchased music

    Had to reboot my computer.  How to I get the songs on my Ipod Classic in my Music library?  It already transferred the purchased songs.

    Rebooting a computer means restarting it and does not lose files.  I take it you did more than reboot.
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer is designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing 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 purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • Why when I downloaded two text alert /tones they do not show up in my text section

    Help pls,
    nmae is Derek
    HI I downloaded form the store two text alerts, but on trying to find them under text alert section on my phone, I could not see them, it trurned out that they have been put into my music folder, and I cannot seem to be able to find them, to use them on the phone, I paid good money fore them, and at the minute they are useless.
    I have an Iphone 3gs with software 5.01, and never done the text alert I used to the computer to down load them, expecting the itunes to put them in the correct place, on my phone.
    I I have dropped a clange then I will know next time, but can anyone help me use the said downloads.
    Thanks in advance.
    Derek.

    Select 'tones' under library on iTunes left Pane, do you see your text tones on the right Pane now?
    If they are there, connect your iPhone to your computer, select your iPhone under 'Devices' on iTunes left Pane, then on the right Pane, select the TONES tab, check the text tones you want to transfer to your phone and click the SYNC button on the lower right window.

  • HT5621 I am English & live in France. My account details & Billing Address are both registered in France. I wish to purchase books in English but when I log in to iTunes to make such a purchase I am automatically diverted to the French web site

    I am english & live in France. My account & Billing Address are both registered in France. I wish to purchase Books in English. However whenever I access the UK iTunes website to make a purchase I am automatically diverted to the French web site. The selection of books in English on that site is very limited. Can I set up a separate account to make purchases of English books in addition to my existing account?

    You can only buy content from your own country's iTunes store - to be able to buy from, for example, the UK store you will need to be here in the UK and have a UK billing address on your account.
    If there are particular ibooks that you would like to be able to buy then you can try requesting that they be added to the French store, but unless the publisher's agree to it then Apple won't be able to sell them there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
    Do you have access to other ebook apps/stores in the French store e.g. Kindle app for Amazon, Nook, Kobo - you might be able to get English-language versions of ebooks from them.

  • Why does my library not show artwork in the bottom left hand corner anymore?

    I have updated iTunes to the new version, but cannot find the settings to ensure the artwork for the music you are listenning too is shown in the bottom left hand corner. Have iTunes removed this feature?

    None of us users here can tell you what Apple will do.  Apple will examine your phone and if a hardware defect is determined, your phone will be replaced free under warranty.
