Why would you think this?  That's an ignorant assumption to make.
Your media is only where you put it.
Either move it from the old computer or restore it from the backup of the old computer.

  • Can't find my playlists in iTunes

    I just moved my itunes library from my pc to a external hard drive and now to my new mac. All my songs are there but no playlists. In my itunes folder on mac i have an iTunes Music Libary.xml and iTunes Libary.xml plus an iTunes library.itl. I feel like the answer to where my playlists are is here but i can't see it.
    Any suggestions?

    Look at this article for what you should have done: Move iTunes from PC to MAC, http://www.macworld.com/article/146958/2010/03/move_itunes_windows_mac.html
    I notice you don't list an "iTunes Library" without any extension.  That's what you should have on a Mac. This file is a database of the songs in your library and the playlists you've created.  It correlates to the iTunes library.itl file from your PC.  This article explains: What are iTunes library files,  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660
    I'll leave it up to you about what you want to do.  I would start over using the Macworld article.
    Here is a more extensive article if you want to look for a solution.  Scroll down to the section titled "Moving Between Operating Systems".  Transferring your iTunes Library:  http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive

  • I have one playlist on iphone4. how can i add new playlist without deleting old one. i do not have old playlist in itunes any more.

    I have one playlist on iphone4. how can i add new playlist without deleting old one. i do not have old playlist in itunes any more.When i try to sync iphone with itunes it says that this action will remove my old playlist and all songs.

    "it says that this action will remove my old playlist and all songs."
    Are you connecting to a different iTunes library than you normally connect to?  That will erase the songs and playlists since the iPhone can't be connected to multiple libraries even if it is in manual sync mode.
    If you no longer have access to the original library that your iPhone calls 'home', then the only way to save the playlist (and the songs on your iPhone) would be to use a 3rd party application to extract your iPhone contents to this new iTunes library you're trying to connect to.

  • I can't find import playlist button on itunes 11

    i can't find import playlist button on itunes 11

    Found the answer for you today as I was looking for the answer myself.  If you go to the menu you will see a option to "Show menu bar".  Click this to get a few functions to show up.  Click on file and in the drop down menu you will find "Library".  Hover over that to get the import option to show up!  Hope this helps!

  • TA47831 How can I import a playlist to iTunes?

    An old article (http://support.apple.com/kb/TA47831) explained how to export an iTunes playlist to an .m3u file and reimport it.  This functionality no longer works with the newer version of iTunes (I'm running iTunes 10.6 on Windows 7).  This is presumably why the article has been retired and is no longer supported by Apple.
    If I export a playlist, change its name, then reimport the result is an empty playlist.  Here is an example of one of the lines from the .m3u file:
    #EXTINF:196,My Happiness - Ella Fitzgerald
    \\NEF\music\Ella Fitzgerald - 50 Classic Hits (disc 2)\Ella Fitzgerald - My Happiness.mp3
    As you can see my file is an mp3 on a remote server ("nef") and works perfectly well in the "Music" section of iTunes.
    What I really want to do is to import some playlists that have been generated elsewhere (for example using a script to identify all the US hits of the 1980s with the word "power" somewhere in the lyrics).  I figured the easiest way to do that would be to work out what format of playlist iTunes would be able to import and generate one of those, I was somewhat surprised to discover that iTunes can't even import a playlist it has just exported.
    How can I import a playlist to iTunes?

    Hi Steve,
    I was wondering this myself and a quick Google found your post here along with an Apple support article published three weeks ago. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1744?viewlocale=en_US
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,

    I would like to view my old playlists & add new music on them. I keep my phone pretty organised & now to not see the music & playlists I already have on there on itunes is irritating me.
    My first time here on the Support Communities.. I hope I am able to find my way around.

  • Can't find a playlist I created on my playlist or computer? I didn't delete it. I don't want to create it again because it took a long time. please help me find and recover.

    Can't find a playlist I created on my playlist or computer? I didn't delete it. I don't want to create it again because it took a long time. please help me find and recover.

    Playlists only exist as part of the larger iTunes library listing so if you are not seeing it there it doesn't exist anywhere else.  I know with my older version of iTunes it is very easy to accidentally delete a playlist.  With newer versions it may be possible to recover it with the undo feature in the menu but this likely will only work immediately after the deletion.

  • Where can I find ipod updater so iTunes 10 will see my scrollwheel 10G ipod?

    Where can I find ipod updater so iTunes 10 will see my scrollwheel 10G ipod?
    I used it exclusively on an old iBook. (POS from the beginning - bad motherboard, replaced, went bad just out of warranty. So I use it for only certain things.)
    Now I want to load the scrollwheel ipod (also POS, bad motherboard where the headphones plug in, can't be repaired) from my iTunes 10 machine.
    iTunes 10 does not see the ipod with it's 1.2.6 software.   iTunes 7.5 sees it but will no longer update itself or the ipod.
    - my sig:  Whatever we're talking about, please don't tell me to buy a new one unless you're willing to pay for it.  Thanks.

    A "scrollwheel 10G" (10 GB) iPod may be 3rd gen...  If it's a 3rd gen iPod, the one with a "scrollwheel" and four "touch" buttons in a row between the screen and wheel (that glow orange), it will only work properly with a FireWire connection.  Although it has a dock connector, it does not charge over a USB connection.  If you Mac has a FireWire 800 port, you can use an adapter to connect to the old FireWire (400) docking cable.
    Mine still works perfectly (it's had a few battery replacements) with the latest iTunes and Mac OS X 10.7.4.  I think it has great sound...

    Check whether these items are still available on iTunes. iTunes lets you redownload only the items that have not been modified or removed from the iTunes Store since you purchased them.

    How can I find my password for iTunes?  Forgot it and can't see how to restore or change it.  It is not the same as the apple id password - or so my iPhone iTunes says - Help

    I don't want to reset my apple ID password. I know it's right. It doesn't work on Itunes to restore my phone. All the passwords I know are not working. I want to know why.

  • I have an ipod touch 2 and rebuilt my laptop.  Reinstalled ITUNES and can't find my applications on ITunes after login.  I tried to activate Itunes again but it didn't.  How can I get my applications to display on ITUNEs?

    It sounds like you essentially have a new computer and unless you restored from a backup your iTunes library would be empty.  You can transfer your iTunes purchases from your iPod to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    SInce you changed syncing computers. after you move the stuff you need to restore the iPod to factory defaults and sync the stuff back to your iPod.  If you had the iPod backup file you could restore from backup.
    If you have non-iTunes pruchases you can copy them to your computer by using one of the third-party programs discussed in this previous discussion:

  • I have my personal music (not purchased from Itunes) stored in two locations, on my PC and on an external HD. How can I find out which directory itunes uses to access this music? I am using Itunes version 11.4.0.18. Thanks

    I have my personal music (not purchased from Itunes) stored in two locations, on my PC and on an external HD. How can I find out which directory itunes uses to access this music? I am using Itunes version 11.4.0.18. Thanks

    Many thanks JEM24 for your help.  Ive just spent the best part of six hundred pounds on a new Sony Rx100m2 compact camera, so I have no interest in the Ipods camera at all really. I doubt Ill be watching many videos on it as Im very lucky in that I have a good Android tablet. Its more as a stock music player that Ill be buying the Ipod for, if indeed I do end up buying one. I dont like the idea of paying the exorbitant amount added for more memory space that Apple along with most other companies charge. In fact I read an article on this very subject just yesterday in the tech section of Flipboard. It stated in the article that in the case of the Iphone  the actual cost of each additional  gigabyte of storage  to Apple et al is something in the order of 60p.. This is certainly not reflected in the price us the customer has to pay at the till.. Its for this reason primarily that Apple in particular, because their products do not allow adding expandable memory of your own in the form of cheap to buy cards, that nobody in their right mind buys the 64gig etc Iphones..I am aware that we are discussing my potential purchase of an Ipod Touch here but you see my point. Many thanks again though for helping me.
