Harddrive crashed..now how can I upload my Nano to my new itunes?

How can I upload all my songs from my Nano to the new itunes 8.0?
When I plug in, it shows all my music, but how can I get it to show in the library? If I were to sync it it would erase all my music.
Can anyone help?

Use your back up copy for this.
Have you failed to maintain a back up of your music?

  • Laptop stolen but iPod ok - how can I upload my iPod to my new computer

    Laptop containing my iTunes was stolen. iPod (thankfully) OK but 1800 plus songs on it. If I load iTunes on my laptop and connect to iPod, I presume it will wipe my iPod? (since there will be no tunes in the library). How can I upload my iPod onto my new laptop? (Apologies if this is an easy question but new to iPod and dont want to have to upload 120 or so CDs again !

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    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), then guide it to the new location of the library.

    You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
    iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year.  It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you.  Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices.  See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

  • How can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?

    how can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?

    Is the new iTunes library on a different computer, or the same computer?
    Are you concerned about photos that you have taken with the iPhone in the Camera Roll, or photos you have synced to the iPhone from your computer?
    Contacts should be configured to sync with an app on your computer. You set this up in iTunes on the Info tab with the iPhone connected. You will not lose any contacts if the app on your computer has at least one contact.

  • My iPod Classic is synced with an old iTunes account.  How can I transfer this music to my new iTunes account?

    My iPod Classic is synced with an old iTunes account.  How can I transfer this music to my new iTunes account?

    If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
    1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
    2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
    3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.

  • My computer crashed and I have most of my old computer's photos in my iPhone.  How can I upload these photos to my new computer.

    My old computer crashed and I had saved a lot of my photos on my iPhone.  How can I upload mu old computer's photos to the new computer? 

    If they are in the camera roll, you transfer them the same as you would from any other digital camera. If they are not in the camera roll, you restore them to the computer from the backup you made of that. The iPhone is not a backup device.
    You can purchase 3rd party software that will let you extract the photos from the phone, but the photos stored on the phone (other than those in the camera roll) are not stored at full resolution. They are optimized for the iPhone display.

  • How can i transfer my ipod to my new itunes without losing all music

    my computer crashed and now all i have is my cousins and i need to know how to convert my music onto her new itunes, hopefully without losing all my music. if thats possible, so there is no way i can go back to my old itunes, her computer is the only itunes i will be able to use. how can i transferr my ipod touch to her computer without losing all data???

    Welcome to the discussion,
    Create a new user in windows to keep your iTunes library separate and log in. Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
    This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
    Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
    The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.

    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • How can I sync my Iphone to a new iTunes account on a new Mac Book as no longer have the old Mac Book and im unable to use the same Apple ID, I want to sync music to my Iphone from my new Mac Book, new Mac Book and iphone in same Apple ID???

    Basically, my iphone has been in the same apple ID as my dads iphone and mac book, so my iphone has always been synced to his macbook. I bought myself a mac book the other day and want to sync my iphone to it. However i have obviously put my mac book in a different apple id as i know pay for things i download myself, how can I sync my iphone to my mac book without losing all the music and pictures on it?  ive now put my iphone into my new apple id thinking this might help? ive also tried clicking 'manually manage music and video' but this doesnt seem to work, it basically says you have to erase your iphone to sync to a new itunes!
    HELPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    " how can I sync my iphone to my mac book without losing all the music and pictures on it?"
    You cannot.  Copy everything you want form the old computer to the new one, then sync it.
    it basically says you have to erase your iphone to sync to a new itunes!
    Correct Iphone will sync, or manually manage, with one and only one computer/library at a time. Syncing, or manually managing, to another will indeed erase the current content.

  • I got a new computer and when i downloaded a new itunes to it i couldnt get my music back.. how can i get my music on my new itunes?

    when i got the new computer i had to downlaod a new itunes library. on my backup hard drive is the old itunes library but it wont let me open it . how can i get my old music on the new itunes??

    -Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music form iPod to computer by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music
    - Then connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up.
    - Restiore the iPod from that backup.

  • How can I sync my iphone to a new itunes?

    Im trying to sync my iphone with my girlfriends computer on a new itunes that she created for me, but it says i'm synced to another computer.  I have no access to that computer anymore so how do I un-sync from that computer and sync to my girlfriends?

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up your phone manually before syncing, you can restore your phone from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Set up your iTunes account, disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.

  • How can I update the apps. with the new iTune, that's really silly especially I have two iTune account for different countries

    I used 2 iPhones and a iPad, 2 Apple ID for different countries so that I can download apps. from different country.  Its a pain and sometimes no possible to update the apps. on the ISO devices.  Apple really needs to fix this aspect.  Also the new iTunes is so difficult to use, please bring back the old one.

    When Itunes opens
    1) Click on drop dow list button top left under the player controls
    2) Select Apps
    3) At the bottom right there are two buttons, Check for updates and Get More Apps
    An Alternative is when iTunes opens in the top menu Click on View, Show Sidebar. Then you will see your apps page as in itunes 10. Click on that option and as before you should have two buttons, Check for updates and Get More Apps.
    NB this is all within Itunes NOT the iTunes Store
