  • Transfer iTunes Library and iPhone Sync data from old iMac to new Macbook Pro

    Hi,
    I bought a macbook pro in September last year, previous to this I had an iMac. This has all my music and iTunes stored on it.
    Is there a way to transfer my iTunes over to my new Macbook Pro and sync my iPhone as if my phone thinks it's the same computer, so I don't have to restore my phone or set it up as a new one.
    Thanks.

    Yes.
    Simply copy the entire /Music/iTunes folder from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.

  • HT4527 "transferring purchases" from iPhone 5 to new MacBook Pro

    A week ago I busted the screen on my former Toshiba PC laptop.  I freaked out as it's only 4 months until our wedding day and all our wedding stuff was on that computer, including all our ceremony music.  I purchased my new MacBook Pro 15" Retina Display and received it yesterday.  I followed all the instructions to transfer purchases from my iPhone 5 to my new mac computer but only 9 songs transferred.  The original iTunes was on my Toshiba since 2009 when I had my original iPhone 3GS and after getting the new iPhone 5, all my songs carried over onto that phone.  Now I can't seem to get those songs onto my laptop.  There are over 1,000 songs but I'm most concerned with the ceremony playlists.  Does anyone know why only 9 songs transferred over? What can i do to get the music off my iPhone and onto my MacBook Pro without having to purchase all those songs again??  I authorized this new computer & I signed in using my Apple ID that I had previously on my former laptop....
    HELP!!!
    Thanks!

    A busted screen does not do anything to the hard drive.
    Pull it out and put it into an external hard drive case.
    Then copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder on the old conmputer HD to /Music/ on your new computer.
    Launch iTunes.
    That is all you will need to do.

  • Transfer music from iphone 4gs to new macbook pro

    Hi,
    I need assistance on how to transfer music from my iphone 4gs to my new macbook pro.  My previous macbook pro was damaged and I can't get the music from the old macbook as the hard drive is severly damaged.
    I dont want to loose my music, so any help is greatly appreciated.

    Not sure that there is a way to get it directly from the iphone since it would count as a new computer being synced blah blah, there are some third party programs you can use but im not sure on them and they arent free. Your best bet would be to simply redownload them from itunes (assuming you got them from itunes) you can redownload all your music as much as you want.)

  • Transfer of data from old mac to new macbook pro..

    when I connect my firewire to my old macbook to transfer data to new macbook pro during installation set up, do I click on option for transfer from another mac or transfer from time machine or other disk?  Old mac will be set up in target disk mode....  I had terrible problems with transfer using migration assistant and it looks like i MUST get this right during initial set up (I had support help me wipe hard drive and restore to factory settings to start over......)
    Help?!

    Time Machine or other disk (Target Disk mode makes it look like an external HD).

  • Importing from iPhone 4 to new Macbook Pro iTunes?

    Have an almost full iPhone 4 and have just ordered a new Macbook Pro
    How do i import my phone songs, and apps and basically my itunes to my new Macbook Pro? Or do i have to log into my itunes account and re-burn my CD"s back into the computer to put back onto the iPhone?
    Im looking for the Quickest easiest way to get back up and running with my itunes account and songs that are only on my iPhone at the moment? as well as apps etc that i have bought in the past?

    "So in essence my iPhone is my only storage device with the music/apps on  - but it looks like i can't download copies 'off' into my new Mac as backup?"
    The iphone is not a storage device.  it simply mirrors the selected content of your computer.
    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 back.
    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases
    "So do i have the unenviable task of re-importing my cd's/songs into my new itunes computer and re-logging into my itunes account??"
    Yes.
    "Do i have to do this all by hand again and re-sync with my iPhone 4?"
    Yes.
    " Same with downloading off my photos to iPhoto?"
    The photo sync is one way as well.  Your pics should be included in your regular backup of your computer.  Pics on the iphone are optimized for viewing on iphone (reduced in resolution).  You can e-mail them to yourself but they will never be of the original quality.
    Always maintaining a backup is very important.

  • Transferring data from crashed pc to new MacBook Pro Retina

    I am trying to transfer data from back-up discs from my old pc to my new MacBook Pro.  I have a USB superdrive and have inserted the first backup disc but the Macbook does not seem to be responding.  I am trying Migration Assistant but it is stuck on the 'Looking for source' screen.  Does Migration Assistant work for a pc backup disc?  If not, how should I go about transferring the data without having to do it file by file?  I also have the pc backed up on Carbonite but they will only transfer the data to a new pc and not to a mac.  Help!

    Hi nickih64,
    When using the Migration Assistant to move data over, there has to be a computer that has be working as Windows version of Migration Assistant needs to be installed and running to make the connection. You would need to have that working or from your back up disks, drag and drop over the information that you want on your MacBook Pro.

  • Transfer iTunes play count data from old laptop to new Macbook Pro

    I have just purchased a macbook pro. Previously I had a Dell laptop running Windows 7. I had stored all my music on an external harddrive, I have successfully transferred my music to my new iTunes library. However, all the songs have no plays, is there any way I can transfer this data to my new macbook?
    I also need to transfer iPad 4, iPod Classic and iPhone backups to the mac.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Also I would like to transfer all the data such as the start and end times for each song.

  • I have a music library on an iMac and I got a new iPhone and a new MacBook Pro and I want some of the songs from the iMac library to be on my phone and my MacBook Pro and I have a new Apple ID on my phone and my Mac book pro

    I have a music library on an iMac and I got a new iPhone and a new MacBook Pro and I want some of the songs from the iMac library to be on my phone and my MacBook Pro and I have a new Apple ID on my phone and my Mac book pro, is this possible if so how do I do it?

    Providing specifics on all the ways to do this will take more time than I am willing to spend here these days.  You can do some of this with Home Sharing.  You can transfer the entire library from one computer to another, If you do that you can delete what you don't want from the transferred library.
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder. If you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)
    You do not want to use a new AppleID.  Change the  AppleID on the new phone to the old ID.  Purchases made with one AppleID cannot be transferred to a different one and it will be a royal pain to manage two Apple IDs.
    Change iTunes Store account on an iOS device - Log out of your current account with Settings.app > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) > tap on your AppleID. Log in with a different account. Note, turning on automatic downloads or re-download past purchases may tie the device to that account for 90 days - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 https://discussions.apple.com/message/18484935 - "In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account") When you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again."

  • I want to transfer all data from my iMac to my MacBook Pro. How do I do that?

    My iMac's video card has died and I am told it is too old to replace.  They recommended transferring all my data from my iMac to my MacBook Pro.  They said attach a fire wire, and press "t' before the iMac starts up and then it will start in safe mode (or something like that).  But I don't know what to do next.  Can anyone help me?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    When you start up your iMac holding the T key, it will start up in Target Disk mode. In this mode, the iMac's hard disk appears as an external drive in your MacBook Pro, so you can access there and recover your data.
    After starting in Target Disk mode, open a Finder window in the MacBook Pro and you will see the iMac's hard drive in the Finder sidebar, under "Devices". Select it, navigate through your folders and copy them to your MacBook Pro's hard drive.
    You can also use Migration Assistant > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4889?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
