Got New computer and cant get itunes onto new computer

Ok Smarties, let's see what you've got.
I Have a little dilemma. Ok BIG dilemma. I cant get my old iTunes onto my new computer because my old computer was bashed in by my ex-best friend. I can't afford to fix it so I decided to get a new one!
My little brother always messes things up and already got HIS iPod on MY new computer. Along with HIS music. I'm just wondering if and/or how to get my old iTunes onto my new computer. I will be very grateful to whoever helps me.

  • I recently purchased a new laptop and I downloaded Itunes onto it this evening. Now when I got to my "recently" purchased songs it is telling me I have to re-purchase them again and it is just a "clip" of the songs I have already purchased.

    I recently purchased a new laptop and I downloaded Itunes onto it this evening. When I log into my account/library of purchased songs it is now just a "clip" of the songs and it is telling me I have to re-purchase them all again. I would think no matter where I log into or access my itunes account the songs I have already paid for should be there, right? I am so confused!

    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old com[puter, to your new one.

  • I have password on my encrypted backup on computer and cant get in???

    i have password on my encrypted backup on computer and cant get in??

    If you don't remember the password, you won't be able to recover anything from that backup.
    See this Apple doc -> iTunes: About iOS backups
    Warning:  If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
    If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore, choose  set up as a new device.

  • I have a new laptop and have installed itunes onto it, but i am worried if i plug my iphone into it i will loose all my contacts apps and photos!! please help!!!

    hi there
    i have just bought a new laptop and have installed itunes onto it but i am worried that if i plug my iphone into it, that i will loose all my apps, contacts and photos!!
    please help!!

    I will try and be helpful unlike the the first two posters!!
    When you say installed iTunes I am guessing that its just the program and not your old library? in which case when you connect your iphone you will get a message warning you that you will be replacing the data on the iphone with the library on the new laptop i.e. an empty itunes.
    If this is the case what you need to do is on your old laptop,
    1: open itunes and go into preference/settings and go to advanced and make sure that consolidate and keep         organised are checked. 
    2: Then go to file and click consolidate library.
    3: close itunes and then go to start and open "My Music" folder.
    4: Drag the iTunes folder out of My music and put it on an external drive or network the 2 laptops.
    5: on the new laptop open "My Music" folder and drag out to the desk top the itunes folder
    6: from the external drive or network drang and drop the old iTunes library into the "My Music" folder on the new    laptop.
    now close it and restart iTunes and your old library should be visable and when you connect your iphone it will identify its the correct library to sync with.

  • Someone stole my iPod and put a password on it, not I got it back and cant get into it

    I bought an iPod from a friend of mine. I did not put a password on it because I didn't think I needed one and I had only had the iPod for about a week. Then someone stole the iPod. It was gone for about 2 months and then someone returned it to me and said they had "found" it at there house. But now it has a password on it and I don't know what it is so I cant even unlock my own iPod. I didn't have it for long before it was stolen so it wasn't even synced to my iTunes yet. Is there anything I can do to get into my iPod so I can use it again?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    If it was a 5G iPod with iOS 7 then you will also have to ent4r the Apple ID and password last used in Settings>iCloud.

  • I have just bought a new shuffle and cant get it to syn

    I have just bought a new ipod shufle and cant find the sync button.  The problem is that i have an old shuffle already registered.  I have downloaded the latest itunes on my laptop but cant see my new ipod listed anywhere, can anyone help please?

    The problem is that i have an old shuffle already registered. 
    That's not a problem.  You can connect multiple iPods to your computer at the same time, and each one appears separately in iTunes.
    If this is the first time you are using iTunes 11.x, the sidebar (along left side of window) may not be visible.  If so, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
    Make sure you are using the USB cable that came with the shuffle, if your old shuffle is a different type (2nd gen).  When connected, it should appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  If you connect both shuffles at the same time, they should both appear under DEVICES.
    If that does not happen, please post back.

  • New 5s and cant get it to discover or be discovered via bluetooth

    Just upgraded to the 5s and i cant get it to discover or be discovered via bluetooth. My iPad wont even find it!!! Any help would be appreciated

    Hi
    You can't use Bluetooth to pair iOS devices with other iOS devices or Computers (Macs or PCs) as it's not part of the OS.
    You can connect iOS devices to some bluetooth enabled cars, speakers, keyboards etc. Apple provide a list for supported bluetooth profiles here:

  • HT1766 I am trying to up date my phone to iOS7 and now my phone is stuck with the itunes symbol and a connect to computer picture and I can't use my phone. I attached the phone to computer and have downloaded itunes to my computer but I have no idea what

    I am trying to update my phone and the phone is frozen on a screen that has the itunes symbol and the computer connection showing.
    I did not have itunes on my computer.
    So I downloaded itunes set up which took an hour or so.
    Now what do I do?

    Please check 2 things in your computer.
    1. Right click 'My Computer'  => Manage  =>  Services & Applications  =>  Services.  Look for Apple Mobile Service at the top.  Status must be STARTED.  If stop, please start it.
    2. Open iTunes in computer.  For Windows 7, go to iTunes Store  =>  Authorise this Computer  => key-in your Apple ID and password when prompted.  For Windows 8, press ALT and S together.  A pop-up window would show information of authorising computer.  Click Authorise this Computer  => key-in your Apple ID and password when prompted.
    Good luck

  • I cant get itunes on my computer and i need to enable my ipod

    please help me find a way to enable my ipod without itunes please

    Yes you can if the iPod is conencted to the internet and FIndMyiPod is turned on
    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.

  • Justbought new ipad and cant see itunes on it?

    I just bought a new ipad air nd have 2 questions....
    Firstly I dont see an itunes app on it, do I need to download as thought it would be on it?
    Secondly how do I put a movie onto my ipad thats on my laptop without bringing all music across too??
    Thanks

    iTunes is only on your computer. There is no iTunes for an iDevice.
    iTunes has a separate section called Movies from which you can select which movies to sync to the iPad.
