Kids spilled water on the itouch - got a new one but how do i get all the old apps I had?  I always charged it but don't know if it was syncing my stuff...

my kids spilled water on my itouch.  got a new one but how do i get all my old apps onto this one?  Or the music i bought off itunes that went directly onto my itouch?  thanks...

You should regularly transfer anything purchased on the ipod to your computer and include it in your regular backup of your computer.
Did you not do this?
You buy one and only one download of music/vids/movies/tv/etc. It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
Unlike music, you can redownload apps:

    I have my my original itunes on my old computer that doesnt accept CD's anymore and My new computer has some of the old songs and some new songs. How do I get all my old content on the new computer and still keep the new content? I also have a few different ipods and I want to have all the songs on all of them but it wont let me. I have read millions of the help articles and still cant figure it out. When I plug one ipod in it says it is going to delete all the old info to sync and cant just add the songs? Frustrated please help!!

    Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

  • I backed up my old phone to my computer, but how do i get all the info onto the new phone

    i got my new phone.  i backed up the old phone onto the competer.  everything is in itunes.  but when i plugged the new phone and did the sync it didnt back up any newer stuff.  just older stuff.  i dont wanna lose any pics or info.  its acting as if there two different phones and not syncing the old phones info from the computerto the new iphone

    iTunes will recognize your new phone as a different device from your old phone.  Do you have any information on your new phone that you want to save?  Restoring to the backup of your old phone will overwrite your data and settings with those of your old phone.  If you want to save any data on your new phone, you'll need to do this first.  After doing so, connect it to iTunes, right-click on the name of your phone on the left side and select Restore from Backup, when prompted, selecte the backup of your old phone to restore from.

  • My iPhone died and I got a new one. How can I get my music in iTunes back? And no, I didnt sync it with my mac or anywhere else....

    I use iCloud....

    Hello, tiburon1979.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I would need a little clarification on the issue that you are experiencing to provide a better answer.  However, if your device is not recognized by iTunes, try going through the steps in the article below.  
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    If the device is recognized and you are unable to select the syncing preference, see the article below as the steps have changed.  
    Sync your iPhone, iPad, and iPod with iTunes using USB
    Cheers,

  • My hard drive crashed, and I got a new one. How do I get my contacts and calendar from my Iphone back into outlook?, my hard drive crashed, and I got a new one. How do I get my contacts and calendar from my Iphone back into outlook?

    My hard drive crashed. I have all my contacts and calendar in my IPhone. I now have a new hard drive and am trying to get my contacts and calendar into the reinstalled outlook on my desktop but can't sync. Suggestions? Thanks

    Well, let's hope that nothing was jiggled out of place when you were installing the new hard drive. Your optical drive may just be out of alignment or the disc you have is "dirty." Get a lint-free cloth and some rubbing alcohol, then clean the disc as thoroughly as you can starting from the center and working outward in a concentric circlular motion. See if that helps. In particular clean the inner portion well.
    If this does not help, then you have a problem. You have opened the computer yourself. That action voids all support from Apple. If you take the computer in for service the store may refuse to service the computer. This is not related to your now expired warranty.

  • How do I get all the songs into one album when it's various artisits?

    I have several albums that are made up of various artists, not just one.  How do I get all the artists under the one heading of the album?

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For compilations use Various Artists and also got the options tab and set Part of a compilation to Yes. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

    I just got my new i phone 5 s and did all the syncing and backing up for my old iphone 4s and set my 5 up and synced it on itunes.  It synced evrything but the contacts and other minor things. those were the only things that really transfered.  My apps and all my music did not. Tthe thing is when i just went to go manually start dowmloading a few of the songs that i knew i already bought , itunes is making me pay forthem again.  Its not saying instal like it usuall does when you go download something aleady purchased on your itunes account.  I think or thought it might have something to do with the fact that i just changed my apple id name right before i got my new phine but my apps all re-downloaded (manually-no syncing) without making me pay for them again.  i dont want to have to purchase allllll my songs again.  Can someone please help me!!  Itried going back to my old id or signing out of this id and signing in as my old apple id but now it wot even get on that oneits likjeit doesnt exist anymore..   And when i plug my old phone it shows in the itunes everything thats supposed to be there but all that doesnt stay in the itunes when i actually un plug it so when i plug my 5 in to my computer none of the stuff is in the store for me to actually transfer it  I am so good with technology and this has me stumped  please help

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

  • How can I get all the stuff from my old iPad 2 to my new iPad 2? I have an apple id and have synced and backed up my old iPad 2 regularly.

    How can I get all the stuff from my old iPad 2 to my new iPad 2? I have an apple id and have synced and backed up my old iPad 2 regularly.

    Sky is right you can restore the old backup and it will not affect the old iPad
    To make sure do this:
    1. If you have the old one then just turn off wi-fi and the iPad (that's just for your peace of mind)
    2. Put new iPad on airplane mode (just for no interruptions )
    3. Connect it (while it's on, don't shut it down)
    4. Follow prompts and when it asks if you want to setup as new or restore CHOOSE: RESTORE
    5. It will make its magic (just wait for it to sync, restarts, and finishes) it might ask you to update software if it does just accept
    6. You can rename your new iPad like that you can have a fresh back up
    7. ENJOY your new iPad
    ----------OR-----------
    1. Do the above steps 1, 2, 3.
    2. On step 4 you can choose to set up as new
    3. Then you can choose what to sync on it (click on iPad on the left panel then the tabs on top you choose what you want on it (you can also do that if you restore)
    4. Follow steps 5, 6, 7.
    ****If you don't have your old iPad you can remove it from your account ****
    ****Also when they sync it to a new computer it will setup as new unless they had an old one then they will restore it their old one****
    ****if you have it connected with your MobileMe or iCloud and you have the find my _____ you can also wipe it as soon as it comes online****
    LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS
    AGAIN ENJOY YOUR NEW IPAD!!!

  • My iphone has been water damaged and in the mean time ive gone back to using my old phone. But i need to get all the contacts from my iphone i had synced to my laptop, but i don't know where to find them and im not sure if ive backed them up to anything!

    If your contacts are synced to your computer then they are in the supported app you are syncing with.
    When you set up syncing of contacts on your device, which application did you select? 

  • HT1848 On itunes, when synced to my pc, I show less than half of the music that is on my iphone 4. How do I get all the music onto my pc?

    I am about to scream if I don't figure this out or just decide to leave Apple and get a Galaxy phone. On itunes, when synced to my pc, I show less than half of the music that is on my iphone 4. How do I get all the music onto my pc? I have read many forums and tried many things, but apple/iTunes is not intuitive at least not on a PC. When I go to devices it won't let me select "transfer music". It's grayed out. Why is this and what can I do? I'd like to delete some of the music off of my iPhone but don't want it gone forever. Pleae help.

    Thanks Turingtest2,
    I appreciate your response. I have done all of the things mentioned, but still when I click on "devices", the "transfer music" option is still not selectable. I see it, but can't select it.  I am running Windows 7 on my PC.
    However, one thing I read makes me take pause. At one point I did erase my computer back to factory settings using the mirrored image. We backed up all information and put the important stuff back on, but I don't believe we did anything with iTunes, so it's a possibility that the music that is in my library now, may only be music I have purchased since then. But, (thinking out loud) that was a while ago and I am pretty sure I have purchased more music than what is in my iTunes library, since then.  Maybe I will approach it from that angle and see what happens.
    It just doesn't make any logical sense that syncing goes from computer to device. Ostensibly then, my iPhone would only have the music that is on my computer after syncing and that is not the case. I still have all my music on my phone. I can see the new music that's on my phone get added to my iTunes library when I connect, which would make one think that syncing occurs both ways. I don't know. It's maddening. Maybe I should just follow my husbands advice and go to an Android. LOL. Or maybe I will take my laptop and phone to the Apple store and make them figure it out. Ha.
    If you have any thoughts about this, let me know. Thanks again.

    Transfer your purchases from old iPhone to computer iTunes, then select tones in iTunes with your new iPhone connected, do a sync.
