Bought a new computer, how do you back up I tunes and transfer everything to the new computer

I just bought a new HP computer and I want to transfer iTunes (which is what I use for my iPad) to the new computer from my old computer. How do I do this please?

You will need to reinstall from scratch. To find your serial number:

If you use the organizer, the way to transfer your photos and catalogs is to make a full backup on the old computer and restore them on the new one.

How do I back up my tunes and iPhone Apps?

How do I back up my tunes and iPhone Apps?

Assuming you use the iTunes default settings where iTunes copied added items to your iTunes folder and organizes your library (meaning - everything is all self contained in the iTunes folder), then all you have to do is drag & drop your iTunes folder (not just the iTunes Music folder you find inside the iTunes folder) to the external drive and copy the entire thing.
If you want to test that it worked or would like to actually start using it from that location instead, use these instructions when you start iTunes to point it to the new location...

If you are just testing, then close iTunes after you verify it works, and restart iTunes again with the same instructions and point it back to your internal drive (original) location.

p.s. I don't know anything about the iPhone or the iPhone apps so I am not sure if they are stored in the same folder structure or not.

My old PC crashed and I ended up buying a new one. I was able to recover all my music from the old hard drive and restore it in itunes. I purchased a new album online thru itunes and added it to my library. When I tried to add the album to my 6th nano it wouldn't download. All the tracks are check marked and I can listen to the album on my pc but it won't sync onto the ipod. The new pc is authorized, any ideas?

You can only sysc with one iTunes library. The new computer is a new library. You have to restore your iPod on the new conputer and then sync.

I changed my Apple ID to a new email address. I cannot get my Iphone and Ipad to recognize the new Apple ID.

I changed my Apple ID to a new email address. Now I cannot get my Iphone and Ipad to recognize the new Apple ID ... and I cannot access the old Apple ID because it does not recognize its password any more ... and I cannot change the password ... and there seems to be no one to ask about this. Any help?

I tried but it won't let me even access the old Apple ID. It won't recoginze its old password and will not let me make a new one. (The site tells me it has sent an email to let me change the password but the email does not come.)

How do you do home share with in different accounts on the same computer?

How do you homeshare within different log in accounts (and itunes accounts) within one computer?

Simply connect them. One computer with one iTunes can manage multiple devices. They're tracked by S/N but you might wish to assign them unique names so that you can track them yourself.
The only minor issue is app updating and purchases while on the computer. It's necessary to log out and back in to the "correct" ID. Much easier to do these things from the iPods.

Got a new PC and transferred everything to the new library. HOwever, my podcasts don't show up. Any idea how to get my podcasts from my iPad to my new iTunes library? Thank you!

I got a new PC and set up my iTunes library. Everything transferred from my iPad--music, apps, books. HOwever, my podcasts did not. Any idea how to transfer all of my podcasts from my Ipad to my new iTunes library? Thank you very much. :-)

If the entire iTunes folder was copied from the old computer to the new computer, then it simply works.
You can also try unsubscribing from the podcast and then re-subscribing.
There is no option to transfer media from an iDevice to a computer.

New computer, how do I get my files off my old ipod to the new computer?

So, my old computer is completely fried. It's dead. We got a new one and I would really love it if someone could tell me how I would be able to keep the songs off my ipod when I hook it up to the new computer.

You cannot do it with iTunes, except for music purchased from the iTunes Store. However, there are numerous third-party utilities that provide this function. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer music," you will see some links.
Once you get the files off the iPod and on your new computer, you just need to get them into your iTunes library and then sync your iPod to that library.
