  • How do you retrieve iTunes media from many locations to one file

    I have all Mac devices.
    The particular item I have a question about is my itunes media file. 
    Since I have a very large collection, I was advised by apple support to move my Itunes Media folder to the 1.5T wireless WD hard drive I have.
    All was going well, until either itunes update occurred or my Macbook Pro OSx had updated that is when I started to notice I have many, many itunes media folders and I want and need to know how to stop this default from occuring and the hardest part is to accumulate all my media that is in itunes media files many on my MacBook Pro in subfolders and on my WD wireless Hard drive that essentially has done the same.
    It has produced most cases many, many copies of each of media, and due to the many places that the media got switched to, some items need to be located to play.  Especially Movies.  None of the data is on cell phone, ipad or icloud.  It is mainly conflicts somewhere from files on my Macbook Pro and what is on my WD wireless hard drive. (I only save media on this hard drive)
    I have attempted to organize itunes, but it seems to perpetuate the problem.
    Is there anyone who knows the best way to find and consolidate media for itunes and place it in one folder.  Is there some App out there that deals ONLY with itunes media consolidating?
    Thanks,
    Tina C.

    What do you mean "retrieve"?
    If you mean previously purchased music, then you cannot, unless you are in the U.S. Then you can use the recently released icloud ( beta version).
    Tap itunes, then tap purchasd

  • I just got my ipod from my dad and he has all of his songs on there from his mac, and so now he gave the ipod to me and i want to put all of the songs on MY computer onto my new ipod and take all of the songs of that my dad originally had.

    When you connect the iPod to your computer and go to the Music tab to select which music you want to sync, iTunes will pop up a dialogue box that if you sync your music it will replace the music that is already on the iPod.
    Since that sounds like what you want to do, just click ok and then sync.

  • I am using my sons old computer.  i thought he removed everything from it, i downloaded itunes since it was not on there from him.  i can log in with my email address and password but i get his playlist.  how can i see my playlist?

    i am using my sons old computer, as far as i can see he uninstalled itunes, so i downloaded itunes.  I can log in under my email and password but i only see his playlist!!! how can i get to my playlist???
    I know this should be simple!!!  but i am not Itunes smart?
    my original playlist/acct was on another computer that we got rid of. 
    I have been downloading songs on my Ipod for about a year without logging onto a computer.
    Maybe i am saying this wrong, i mean my library of songs.  i can only see his songs not mine.

    Your songs would only be there if you put them there.  They do not magically appear in another place.
    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • So I made a new account on my computer for my sister, and none of the music that I put on the computer from CD's i no longer have aren't on there, The purchansed ones are on there.

    So I made a new account on my computer for my sister, she had a lot of music on her ipod, i opened itunes for her and none of the music that I put on the computer from CD's, That I no longer have, are on there, The purchansed ones are on there though. But when i go back and log onto my account all of the music's there. Please help me.

    For music that you've purchased from Apple that are on your iPhone you should be able to copy to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. Also if you are in the US then you should be able to re-download past music purchases for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    For your own music that you've copied, then if you haven't got a backup on, for example, external drives or CDs/DVDs then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work

  • I have photos on my iPad that I want to delete. This is my problem. I synced them from my ex-husband's Mac. We are no longer together therefore I don't have access to his computer or iTunes account. Is there any other way to delete them?

    There is no such thing as an "SG3" or "SG4".  Did you possibly mean a 3GS and iPhone4?
    It has always been very basic to ensure that a backup exists of your media and other important files.  Computers fail, hard drives crashes... things happen.  Do you not have a backup?  The iPhone, like all iDevices is NOT a backup of your media, but rather a mirror of the content in the iTunes library on your computer.
    If your contacts, pics, etc are not on your computer, no backups of the iPhone exist, and they are not on the phone, they are gone.
    No one can magically make them re-appear.

  • I was updating my iphone, but my computer shut down half way through restoring my old settings. When I turned my computer back on, i tried to continue with the restore but the original backup i was trying to use wasn't there anymore, it had been replaced.

    Try resetting the SMC.
    MacBook and MacBook Pro with a battery you can remove
    Shut down the computer.
    Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the computer, if it's connected.
    Remove the battery.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer
    To reset the SMC on newer Mac portables with a battery you cannot remove
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.  
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

    I am building a website using IWEB, on my computer, and I am stuck suddenly, the page I made yesterday is hidden by another page and I cannot pursue..
    Is there a way to learn the process, also I see a contradiction with ILIFE 2011, reading about an announcement of Steve Jobs....? that iWeb would not longer be??

    How is the first page hidden by the other page?  Where are you experiencing this problem?  In iWeb's window or in the browser window of the published site? 
    Are you referring to the page's link in your navbar?  If so check the Inspector/Page/Page pane for the "hidden" page and make sure it's set to be included in the navbar. If that's not the problem describe in detail what you mean and include any screenshots you can make of the problem.
    As far as the longevity of iWeb read the following:
    As you now know iWeb and iDVD have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    Currently if the site is published directly from iWeb to the 3rd party server the RSS feed and slideshow subscription features will work. However, if the site is first published to a folder on the hard drive and then uploaded to the sever with a 3rd party FTP client those two features will be broken.
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: iW14 - Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    NOTE: the iLife 11 boxed version Is no longer available at the online Apple Store.  To get a copy you'll have to try Amazon.com or eBay.com.

  • HT4528 when i first got my iphone thru verizon, i had 2 movies, and numerous songs that came from my cd's i owned already. or from music that i already had on my computer. however, i didn't think i would be chgd for putting them on itunes,i pd more doing

    the 2 movies on itunes i purchased, and put on itunes,for travel. i also added music that i also had to my itunes on my computer. heck, i was charged more for the movies, than i paid for them on my original purchase of them when i put them on itunes. the music on itunes was also music that i purchased the cd's, myself, and loaded onto my computer so that i would be able to carry it with me when i went on a trip..but when i got my bill, i was being charged for purchasing them again...is that how itunes works? if it is i will not be adding any more of my movies, or music on it at all. iphone or computer? by the time i got the bill it had added allmost 40+ dollars to my bill. and no i was not over my space i had for my phone, and definitely had room on my computer.  so please. if thats how it works tell me and i will not add any more to my itune acct. i was quite stunned to see what additional charges i was paying again, and even worse more than i'd paid for it all the first time when i purchased....i have sent an email upon figuring out what had  made my bill so high, just as i am now. as of today i have not gotten any response from customer support. if this is the case i will not only not use itunes on any of my devices but i will see that upon renewal of my contract. i will NOT purchase any device that you have to use iturnes on it....i have spoke to several people and they had the same thing happen to them. so do we have to pay JUST to add our own movies music etc to itunes. cause if thats the case i will go back to other phones and won't have to deal with itunes.i didn't PUCHASE any of it from itunes, and if i had i would have done it only with an itunes card just to avoid and have control of my bill, as i thought that i would..so please let me know if i have to pay again for my OWN items,i put on itunes. i had plenty of space on my computer, the cloud, dropbox etc. that wouldn't even make any sense for anyone to do it....please respond, it has taken a while to send again due to several very personal tragedies i have been a bit behind in getting this cone again but i would love to get or have someone explain WHY i am paying for music and movies that i had and thought it was a good idea to put on my computer for travellimg purposes. i hope and would appreciate an acknowledgement of this letter, and also a response...because if that's the case i won't be using itunes any more for adding movies or music to itunes, and on top of that paying for it all a second time, and it also being more than i had originally paid for them when and where i purchased them..i have been please with all my apple products till that happened, now not so sure....i have to keep up with all of my expenses for medical reasons..i hope that i get a response this time. i also have 2 other email addresses, [email protected], and [email protected],i used them to try to use them to set up my acct., but for whatever reason said they were invalid and i have had them for several years, no problem with any one else......

I have tried to sync it using iTunes match, this did not work. I would like to have access to my full library without going into the user profile of my old computer, which is on my new computers hard drive. I would like to eventually delete the old profile so that I have more space on my hard drive.

  • I had to get my hard drive replaced from Apple, I lost all of my music obviously.  My question is, how can I get all my music off of my iPhone onto iTunes?  Since it's a new hard drive, the iPhone isn't recognizing this as it's home computer.

    You will need to use third-party software to transfer music from your phone to the iTunes Library. I recommend Phone to Mac - Pod to Mac | Macroplant.com.
