2013 MBP with Mavericks: Move music from 2007 MBP?

Want to transfer my music from a MBP from 2007. Problem of incompatible ports, apart from USB.
Any ideas apart from WiFi, which will take hours, or buying more cables? Could I transfer the music from a time machine disk with USB?
Thanks for any help.

If you have your /Home/Music/iTunes/ folder backed up with Time Machine, then you can restore the folder to the new computer using the Time Machine application.
Please visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine. I believe you want Item 17.

  • No Update of iMovie 10.0 with Mavericks on iMac from 2007

    After upgrading my iMac (24") from 2007 with Maverick it is not possible to update the new iMovie because the Graphic-Board seems to be too slow or too less of RAM. Question: Is it possible to upgrade the Graphic-Board?

    I see my question was answered by 10.0.2 released 23 January!!
    I also see some people are still experiencing problems... haven't tried anything myself yet, but will hope for the best!

  • How do I move music from one apple ID to another

    How do I move music from one apple ID to another?

    If you want to change your iCloud ID to another existing ID you'll have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data (including the calendar) to the new account.  To do this, first go to Settings>iCloud on your iPad and turn all data you are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on your iPad.  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (Note, this will delete the account from your iPad but not from iCloud.  The account will remain in iCloud if anyone else chooses to remain signed into it an continue to use it.)  Next, set up the new iCloud account using your new ID, then turn syncing for your data (contacts, etc.) back to On.*  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to your new account.
    * If you only want to upload the calendar, only turn Calendar to On; but I'm assuming you will be the owner and want this to be your iCloud account on your iPad with all your data, and then your can share the calendar with others and administrate it.

    How can I move music from a hard drive to iphone?

    Import it into an iTunes library and then sync the iPhone with that library. If desired, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and create or choose an iTunes library on that drive.

  • HT1473 How do you move music from itunes on a windows computer to an iPhone 5,  Music from my existing collection?

    How do you move music from itunes in a XP computer to an iPhone 5?

    You copy the content of your iTunes Library to the iPhone by connecting to the iPhone to your computer, using the USB lead that came wiht the phone, and allowing iTunes and the iPhone to Sync with one another.
    This will leave the content in your iTunes Library. An iPhone (or iPod) is not desinged to be the only location for your music (or other content). The idea is that the iPhone (or iPod) has a copy of the Library.

  • I just updated my iphone to ios 7 and updated itunes to 11.1.  Yesterday I noticed I couldn't move music from my library to my iphone.  Today I noticed that most of the music on my iphone is gone.  What do I do?

    I  just updated my iphone to ios 7 and updated itunes to 11.1.  Yesterday I  noticed I couldn't move music from my library to my iphone.  Today I  noticed that most of the music on my iphone is gone.  What do I do?

    I don't see how the AAC Version thing really applies here - the issue seems to be with
    the time it takes for "Preparing to Update" to run when adding new songs and
    the fact that a bunch of songs can get temporarily deleted from your phone, then need to be recopied over.
    I should also add that I'm using iTunes for Mac (OS 10.6).
    And Linda0410, if you view your phone's library in iTunes on your computer while it's copying, you should be able to see a bunch of grayed out songs, and there will be a little indicator on the left hand side of each song that's currently being copied.

  • How do i move music from iphone to pc - not all downloaded from itunes store?

    how do i move music from iphone to pc - not all downloaded from itunes store?

    iTunes includes an option to transfer content that was purchased from the iTunes Store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for content that was purchased from the iTunes Store only.
    With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
    This is one of the reasons why maintaining a backup of all your important data (including your iTunes library) stored on an external drive used for backup purposes only, or on other media such as CD or DVD is so important.

    How do i move music from my itunes to my iphon?

    In iTunes, highlight your iPhone under Devices in the column on the left.
    Then choose the Music tab at the top and choose which music you want on your iPhone.
    Couldn't be simpler than that.
    If you want some of your pictures on your iPhone, choose the Photos Tab and choose your photos.
    The same with Movies, Podcasts etc.

    No. It only works with iPod Nano, Shuffle and Classic. You could use an external HDD or pendrive tough...

  • I am having trouble learning how to move music from my PC to my iPOD via usb.

    Hello, I have a new gen 4 16g ipod touch and I'm having trouble with the learning curve.  I cannot figure out how to move music from my itunes to the ipod.
    I have dell xps with windows 7.
    Itunes tells me I have the most updated ios for my ipod.
    No wifi and would like to use usb.
    I'd be happy to provide any information that can help you help me.
    My thanks.

    1. You connect your iPod to iTune (computer)
    2. Select your device (iPod) on the right column
    3. Select Music on the top of screen
    4. Check Sync Music and select other options
    5. Tap Sync on bottom right to complete the Task

    Where are iTunes files located?
    No, I do not mean just the music.  Copying just the media/music files or the media folder creates problems.

  • HT1329 How do I move music from one iPod to another?

    I just bought an iPhone and want to move music from my old iPod to my new phone.  Any suggestions?

    It needs to go through iTunes.  But there is no way to transfer songs from iPod to iTunes library (except for music you purchased from iTunes Store).  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once the song files are on your computer, add them to your iTunes library.  You can then sync your iPhone to the iTunes library.
    Alternately, if you sign up for the iTunes Match service, your iTunes music library on your computer will become available from iCloud.  You can set your new iPhone (assuming you bought a "new" iPhone) to sync from iCloud, instead of from your computer's iTunes.  All of your music will be available wirelessly, wherever you have an Internet connection.

    The sync is one way -  computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

  • HT1386 Can I move music from one apple account to another?

    Can I move music from one apple account to another?

    Typically not.  Consider the case where you used an Apple account (call it A1) to purchase songs from iTunes.  Now you are interested in moving your music to account A2.  Well A2 does not own the music - A1 does.  So that's a problem.
