Simple. Go here -> https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid

Authorize your computer for the old AppleID.
FYI: If you later get a new email address, don't create a new AppleID.
Just update your current AppleID with new info. See this -> Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
Then you won't have to worry about having "old" accounts.

    - Transfer iTunes purchases:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    newer copy
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup
    Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.

    Welcome to AD!
    Your signature line shows you have a Sony. Vaio users worldwide are seeing this.
    It's some Sony software conflicting with itunes.

    Open the iTunes Library.itl file.

    How do I access and use my Itunes library from a different/new computer?  My computer is no longer working, so I need to be able to access my library from my wife's computer.

    Your library will only be where you put it.  Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to the new one.
    You can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

  • How do I access my music in iTunes without downloading? I want to hear the music not save it on multiple devices...

    How do I access my music in iTunes without downloading? I want to hear the music not save it on multiple devices...

    Thanks, I tried that. It shows me only the songs i purchased and just gives me a snippet of the song. After much more reading and a phone call, it looks like Match will stream all the songs in my iTunes account without having to download them, but of course for a fee :( Thanks though.

  • Can't find sync option to transfer music from itunes library to ipod?

    No sync option to transfer music from itunes library to ipod (nano).  Ipod shows up in My Computer files, so it has been synced to this computer.

    What is selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?

  • Updated iPhoto could no longer use the music from iTunes library for slideshow

    Anybody checked if you can still use your music from iTunes library for slideshows?
    After updating both iPhoto and iTunes to the latest version in Mavericks, all music links in the iPhoto's slideshows became invalid. Tried even to re-establish the music links, but it seems like the iPhoto would not play any music from the iTunes library. Only the sample music from iPhoto is usable. The iTunes works fine by the way.
    Thanks a lot!

    I think I found a workaround that seemed to correct the problem. In iTunes, go to the File menu and choose Library. Then select Organize Library. Next choose Reorganize files in the folder "iTunes Media".  Click OK.
