Can i transfer ipod touch content to a new computer via the ipod touch

can i transfer ipod touch content to a new computer via the ipod?

Yes.
But first, with iTunes open in the menu bar click Store > Authorize This Computer.
Then from the iTunes menu bar click File > Transfer Purchases From...
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
You don't need third party software to do this for iTunes purchases.

    I am concerned about the health of my current computer but have not yet made the commitment to a new one, but:
    1) How can I transfer my iTunes account to a new computer when I get one...
    and
    2) What can I do if my current computer suddenly implodes and I have not yet 'copied/'saved'/otherwise protected my account, as is? -- I have already had my computer crash once and had one of your people help me restore all of the paid for songs (none of the uploaded from my own collection of CD songs, of course, so I had to spend a long time rebuilding that) -- and I believe I was told you could only help me recover that material one or two times altogether, no?
    WithOUT purchasing a Mach or iCloud (I actually think I have one of the later, but rarely have checked it) account, is there anything I can do to responsibly protect my account?
    Thanks for any time taken on this!!!

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • How can I transfer music from nano to a new computer.  Old computer is gone.

    How can I transfer music from nano to a new computer?  Old computer is gone.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer files/docs/pics/music/etc.
    Use your backup copy to put everything on the new computer.
    If for some reason you have failed to backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from your ipod.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • Can I transfer my photoshop cs6 to a new computer

    Can I transfer my photoshop software to my new computer?

    You are allowed up to 2 activations on the same platform. So if you have a Windows laptop and desktop you install and activate on both.
    De-activate and uninstall only when you are satisfied the new install works before you give away or recycle the old PC, otherwise you can use the old one if the new one goes in the repair shop.

  • I would like to know how I can transfer all my purchases to a new computer. The laptop which all the music is stored, is broken.

    I would like to know how I can transfer all my purchases to a new computer. The laptop which all the music is stored, is broken.

    You can also re-download most previous purchases (not just songs) from the iTunes Store from the Purchased screen.  So, you should be able to get the "one missing purchase" back too.  Sign in to iTunes using the Apple ID used to make the purchases.  Go to the iTunes Store.  (With the new iTunes 12, select the Music category first, then go to the iTunes Store.)  Click on Purchased (along right side under QUICK LINKS).  From the Purchased screen, you can find and download previous song purchases, at no cost.
    You can also re-download purchases from other iTunes categories, such as Movies and TV Shows.

  • Can I transfer my Iphone info to my new computer?

    Hi folks! Recently i bought Windows 7 for my laptop and i completely forgot to do a back up of my itunes library, so i have nothing in there right now. I still have everything in my iphone but i would like to know if i can transfer all my info from the iphone to the new computer (itunes)? in order to keep all my info (songs, pics, ringtones, videos and movies). If anyone knows how to do it or if its possible please let me know.
    Thanks in advance!

    First, Authorize the new computer in the iTunes store (in iTunes, Store/Authorize Computer).
    It depends on the info. Purchased tracks and apps must be transferred using File/Transfer purchases, as already stated. Ripped tracks or tracks from other sources cannot be recovered this way. There are 3rd party tools that can do this; use Google.
    Photos cannot be recovered without using a 3rd party tool (use Google to find one), and even after recovered will not have the original resolution.
    Contacts and Calendar can be recovered. First make sure there is at least one entry in the Calendar and Contact lists on the PC. Then sync; you will be asked if you want to merge. Say Yes.
    Application data on the iPhone will be backed up the first time you sync, but be sure to Transfer Purchases first.

  • How can I transfer my star ratings to my new computer?

    Just bought a new Dell. I have ITunes on my old computer, and have spent lots of time creating playlists and star ratings. How can I import that into my new computer? I have a video Ipod with my complete music library on it, and when I connect it to my new computer I can listen and change the ratings, but I can't transfer the music, or any of the playlist info. Ideas?

  • How can i transfer my iphone music to a new computer?

    I have a new work computer and I want to put my iPhone music in my iTunes on that machine, but it won't let me.  Why???

    iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod, iPad, or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
    First you need to authorize the computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.

    You can download CS4 here. Download CS4 products
    Most comments I've seen say CS4 needs to be run in compatibility mode on Win 8.1. Windows 8.1 compatibility for Adobe Photoshop CS4 version 11
    But the only way to know for sure is to try it.

  • Can you transfer an Kindle e-book from a computer to the ellipsis and will it work after transfer?

    I have purchased an e-book from Amazon and it downloaded to my computer.  Is there a way to move e-books between these two devices?
    If it can be moved can one still read the book on the new device or on both of them?

    Amazon allows Kindle books on multiple devices. The number of devices allowed may vary depending on the book, however I believe for most books it is up to 5 devices.
    You don't really transfer books from one device to another. You simply go to the Kindle store on the device you would like to read the book, look at your Kindle library on that device. If you have already purchased the book on your account, it will be listed in your available books. Simply click on the book and it will start downloading. If you already have the book on your limit of devices it will inform you of that fact. You can simply go to one of your other devices and delete the book from it and then download it on your new device. If you ONLY have the book on your computer and want to download it to a Kindle e-reader, you should have no problem with it being on too many devices, though.

  • Can you transfer final cut pro x to another computer with the same apple account?

    I want to get Final Cut Pro X right away so I can start editing videos for my youtube channel, but I'm am also planning to get a Macbook Pro for school this year. Is it possible for me to buy & use Final Cut Pro X on my current macbook now, and then later copy and/or transfer the application to my new computer? Both computers would be run by the same apple account. Thanks! Please reply.

    Hello There,
    I'm not sure of how many in total you can have, but you can have FCPX on both your computers you just can't use them at the same time.

  • Can i transfer my iweb website to a new computer?

    i built a website for my friend, linked to her mobileme account, which i logged into from my computer. Is there any way for me to transfer the web document to her computer so she can maintain it? The only thing I thought to try was to export it to a folder and bluetooth it to her desktop. Is there another place the website lives? Can I literally sync it via mobile me? Thanks for any advice!

    vickchick:
    What you need to transfer to the other computer is the Domain.sites2 file that is located in your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. Put that file in the same folder on the other computer and launch iWeb. That file (acutally an UNIX style package, contains all the elements for publishing the site. That's it.
