Adding Previously Backed-Up CD's of iTunes, dont want to delete current..?

I don't want to delete my current iTunes Library... or lose the songs.... so when I put a back-up CD in of iTunes library previously backed up, will it delete my current stuff???? I have songs on the previously backed-up CDs that arent on here and some that are, I lost my hard drive, and got a new computer, its been awhile now tho and I have decided to finally try to re add them CDs...
Help.

Put the CD in and read the message. It should ask you if you want to replace existing files or not.
So - if it is already in your library, say NO to replace existing. THe ones that are missing, it should add.

  • Can we copy back songs from iPhone to iTunes library, once if deleted from iTunes library ?

    can we copy back songs from iPhone to iTunes library, once if deleted from iTunes library ?

    Have you not got a backup of your content ? iTunes will only copy back purchases that you made from Apple. For music from other sources you will need to find a program from another source which can copy them back from the phone - if you do a search on google you might find some. Or depending from where you got them from can you re-download them from those sites ?

    I have 2 ipads and my iphone on the same icloud account and it wont let me back it up cause I dont have enough space. So I want to move my iphone over to a new icloud account with my new apple id that i made but i dont want to delete the ipads off the old account just move the iphone to the new one. How do I do that I despreatly need help!!!

    To migrate your phone to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep on the phone, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; your other devices won't be effected by this), provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone (if using iOS 7) and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted .  Then sign back in with your new Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data to the new account.

    When you restore from a Time Machine back up you can pick and chose what is restored. It is not an all or nothing process. Nor do you have to do the partial restores all at the same time. If days after the first partial restore you find something else you want you can restore just that.

    Select your Music Track so that a yellow border is around it. Then hit the Delete Key. Alternatively, hit EDIT/DELETE SELECTION.

  • Help?? new computer and new itunes. dont want to lose information

    We have 2 iphones with Sprint service - which means no SIM card.  We just purchased a new computer.  I downloaded itunes to the new computer since it was not pre-installed.  I transfered the info from our old computer to the new one using an easy transfer cable.  Our music is now in the new itunes, though not all of the playlists transfered, which is no problem.  When I plug the iphone into the new computer, a message appears that all data will be erased from the phone if I continue.  I dont want to lose the contacts, apps, etc by going forward.  The music can be reselected so that is not an issue but the contacts and other info would be a nightmare if lost.  Sprint doesn't have SIM cards, so that isn't an option to save contacts.
    It was also a nightmare having 2 iphones connecting to the same itunes, so I would like to have 1 iphone to the new computer and the other iphone to our laptop.  When I connect the iphone to the laptop, I get the same message.
    Also, there were purchased music on both iphones - will I lose those purchases?
    Thanks for any help!!

    Did you not copy your contacts from the old comtuer to the new one?  You should copy everything from the old computer.
    BTW iphone stores nothing at all on the SIM card, so that would not matter anyway.
    You need to transfer anything purchased on the iphone to your comptuer:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • When backing up iPhone 6 to iTunes, I want the pictures and videos go to my computer. Where are the files on my Pc?

    I have ios 8.1 on a iPhone 6. I want the videos I've made with the phone to be stored on my computer. How do I do it?

    A backup stores the data in the location shown in the following link: Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes
    Note, however that backup files are stored in a format that is meant for use only in restoring to an iOS device. They are not a way for you to view the photos on the computer.
    If you want to save the photos to the computer and be able to view them there, the following has instructions: Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC
    You can also use PhotoStream My Photo Stream FAQ or 3rd party apps such as http://www.photosync-app.com

    I tunes keeps telling me that it can not read my phone and it wants me to reset to factory setting there is nothing wrong with my phone and my computer reads the phone. What should I do I already did the restart of the apple mpbile device service.

    Do an iCloud-backup, reset the iPhone and restore is from the iCloud-backup.

    Hello there pipem90,
    Heres an article about that very issue. Check out this article named iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1369.
    There is more to the article but start here:
    1. Start with the iPod Troubleshooting Assistant
    If you have not already done so, try the steps in the iPod Troubleshooting Assistant which applies to your iPod; this will often solve your issue.
    If you're still experiencing the issue after going through each of the steps in the assistant, continue with the steps below in this article. The most likely solutions are listed below (for both USB and FireWire (IEEE 1394) iPod connections). Check each section starting from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping your iPod from appearing.
    Note: To determine if your iPod syncs via USB or FireWire, check the table in the Additional Information section below.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • ITunes dont want to synch apps in 3GS

    Two days ago, when performing a synch between iTunes and my 3GS iPhone, I noticed that the apps are in gray and it doesnt allow me to make any changes.  Why is this? How can I synch apps from my Mac to my 3GS ?

    I created a lot of Itunes account
    Why did you create "a lot" of iTunes accounts?
    You only need one iTunes account.

  • I forgot my password, and i said ipod is disabled conect to itunes. I dont want to erase anything but can u give  me my passwrd or help me. please.

    I forgot my password, and it said ipod is disabled conect to itunes. i dont want to delete anything. but is there is a way u can ee my password, so i can get in and take off my password. Please help

    If you forgot your screen-lock passcode then there is no way that I know to get stuff out of the iPod.  It is a security feature. Your only recourse is to restore the iPod which eraases the current content of the iPod.
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen

  • Itunes wants to delete some of my contacts

    I went to sync my phone today and iTunes suddenly wants to delete 200 of my contacts.  I have not made any modifications to the Contact list on my Mac.  What's going on and how can I fix?  Thanks in advance for your help.

    Do you have duplicates on the PC in your PIM manager(Outlook or Palm Desktop) or are the duplicates on the Centro only?
    If your PC does not have the duplicates, you can sync the Centro with the hotsync manager set at desktop overwrites handheld.
    If you have duplicates on the PC, you will need to clean out the duplicates on the PC and then sync with desktop overwrites handheld.

  • Recently got a new iPod 4th gen; I had previously backed up to iCloud and subscribed to iTunes Match, and then wound up syncing the new iPod to my MacBook Pro; all iCloud tunes were downloaded to Mac but won't all sync to the iPod - any suggestions?

    Recently got a new iPod Touch 4th gen; I had previously backed up to iCloud and subscribed to iTunes Match, and then wound up syncing the new iPod to my MacBook Pro; all iCloud tunes were downloaded to Mac but won't all sync to the iPod after multiple attempts, despite all songs showing properly on the Mac and multiple syncs occurring after all songs were properly reflected on the Mac.  I updated iTunes Match from the iTunes Store menu as well pre-sync.
    I should mention that I had previously had the library on a Dell (which is still running) and shared it on my home network.  While all iTunes purchases now show in the Dell, the Mac is the device I use for all syncs. 
    There appears to be no rhyme or reason to the iCloud physical sync failure - some songs were legacy, some were purchased via the PC, some on the old iPod.
    The Mac shows all the songs correctly and none show iCloud status -all have been downloaded, but the downloaded songs that were previously showing up as iCloud based aren't syncing to the iPod.
    Is there any way to force all music being seen by my iPod as iCloud to download to so I can listen to them offline?  Is there a way to force the sync from iTunes?

    The "system" performed as designed. All devices syncing to one iCloud account are kept in common sync. The idea is that all such devices belong to one user. Different users should have different iCloud accounts.  Once your contacts were edited, all devices were updated as well and subsequent backups (from yours and her device) reflected the changed contacts (and any other data that may have been edited like calendars). Your first task is to change your daughter over to a new account before she makes other changes.
    The only way I see for getting back contacts is to restore them from a time machine backup, assuming you also have a Mac included in the account which syncs the contacts. However, I'm not sure whether time machine includes contacts from iCloud along with those that are local, "on my Mac".
    Otherwise the deleted contacts are gone.

    Long story short....I restored my computer to an earlier point using time machine and now all of the previous back-ups are gone. My question has to do with itunes...is it possible to restore my itunes library to the most recent backup because the restore that I did was in march and the latest backup was in may....the reason being is that there were app that i had downloaded that are in my most recent back-up, that were not in the backup I restored to. Is it possible to just restore one application ie)itunes?

    Then make sure you sync everything to your computer so you do not lose it.
