Computer died, how do you save iTunes data to a new computer?
My 17" laptop died and with it my complete iTunes library. Wile I have an iPod, 2 iPads, and two iPhones associated with this account, I do not have any one device with all of my data housed on it... Just the dead MacBook Pro. How can I retrieve my data... Or at least most of my data?
Pull the drive and plug it into a usb to sata/ide/whatever adapter. Unless the drive is well and truly destroyed, it will all be there on the disk.
You'll need a device something like this, depending on the disk drive interface to go DIY. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=&sku=774365&Q=&is=REG&A=detail s
It will be frustrating if you don't have enough expertise to sort it all out. Now that you've been burned by having no backup, maybe it is time to consider dropping a couple of hundred bucks or less on a NAS.

How do you get your acct in a new computer if you already reached the 5 computer limit. I don't have 5 computers?
Carmen,
If possible, deauthorize any computers you still have physical access to that you know you had previously authorized to play your iTunes purchases. Otherwise, you can always use the Deauthorize All option described in this article.

My computer died, so trying to connect my phone on a new computer and download all my music to the new computer/itunes?
The iphone is not a storage/backup device. The sync is oen way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Devices>Transfer Purhases
Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one. -

My computer crashed and I lost my iTunes library, On my new computer I downloaded iTunes and some of my songs were there. Although I lost my movies that I had purchases on iTunes, which of course cost quite a lot. How can I go about getting these back?

Hi,
I lost my computer.
How can I sincronize me Iphone with the new computer without loose my contacts and apps?
Thanks
ThaschorIt has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
Use your backup copy to move everything to the new computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone: File>Transfer Purchases
If you enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer, then when you first sync you should get the option to merge the data. -
I just purchased a new desktop computer. I had downloaded music from CD's on my old computer. How do I get this music on my new computer? The music is on my iphone, can I download from my phone?

From your OLD computer...
Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
Full Details Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
An Added Bonus is that you will have a Backup of iTunes.

What version of Premiere Elements do you have and on what computer operating system was it running on and will it be running on?
On how many computers do you already have this same purchased activated serial number? Assuming just the computer that crashed?
If just that one crashed computer, then just install the program from your installation files or installation disc.
But, make sure your installation files or installation disc for the crashed computer will be supported by the new computer.
If you already have the same purchased activated serial number on two computers (crashed and another one), then you will need to deactivate
this purchased activated serial number for the other non crashed computer before trying to install on the new computer.
We can give you more details on Deactivation once we know the program version.
Adobe allows the purchased activated serial number on no more than 2 of your computers. And you cannot use them at the same time.
Please review. If any questions or need clarification, please ask.
Thank you.

Add On...If more sorting out is required, then Adobe will need to do it since it is the only one to take care of activation issues. We are not Adobe.

My old iPhone died, so I just got a new one. I am hooking it up to my computer for the first time. The iTunes on my computer doesn't show any devices as being hooked up to the computer when I plug in my iPhone. Yet my iPhone is charging so I know it is connected to the computer. Any suggestions on how to get my iTunes to recognize the new device? Thanks
Make sure that your music is in the format supported by the iPhone. I use either MP3 or AAC.
A friend had the same problem a while back. All his music was in the WMA format and is therefore not playable on the iPhone and would not copy. Once he converted his songs to MP3 they copied to his iPhone without problem. -
