HELP! I NEED HELP, PLEASE...How do I sync my old imac with my new imac?

I want to transfer all my data from my itunes, iphoto, and iweb onto my new machine...what is the best way to accomplish this? (most important is the iweb stuff-i'm trying to finish off my website)-Thanks!
imac6,1 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

The easiest way is with Migration Assistant which is in the /Applications/Utilities folder on your new iMac. You will need a firewire cable. Don't transfer applications because older applications can overwrite newer ones.

  • How do I sync my old library with a new install of iTunes on a seperate drive?

    I just recently installed an SSD on my PC and I want to run iTunes off of the SSD. My library currently resides on my old HDD witch also has the most current version of iTunes on as well. How can I sync the library that resides on my old HDD to the new install of iTunes on my SSD?

    can't if you do not have access to the old library (the usual workaround is to backup the old library and import it to the new itunes)
    for important data...
    sync your existing contacts with icloud, your text messages will not be disrupted, music will sync with whatever music you have on your new itunes, photos shoud still be in the camera roll (I would sync them to photostream before you sync, just in case).   Any photos on your phone that are not in camera roll or photostream... if you lost those pictures with the computer crash I would take screen shots (lock button + home button at the same time) of each photo so they show up in the camera roll.  App data may or may not be lost.  In my experience, it depends on the app.  Some of the apps recognize your apple ID and sync data over the internet with servers, some do not.  I would take note of important data (such as passwords in a password keeper if you have such an app) just in case if you lose that data.

  • How do I sync my old itunes with a new ipod?

    I have just got the latest iPod Nano, after having an extremely old version (from about 5 years ago). All my music (over 800 songs) is on my iTunes account on my home computer, but this computer only has Windows XP, which is not compatible with the new iPods. If I get iTunes 10.4 on my laptop, how can I transfer all my songs from my old iTunes to my new iTunes so that I can sync with my new iPod??
    Thankyou

  • HT1338 i have apps to be updated but when i try to update them a message pops out saying "You have updates for other accounts, please sigh in with the other id". Can some one help me how can i still update the same with the new apple id ive created.

    i have apps to be updated but when i try to update them a message pops out saying "You have updates for other accounts, please sigh in with the other id". Can some one help me how can i still update the same with the new apple id ive created. As i dont have the access to the earlier id anymore.

    You cannot. The apps are assigned to that Apple ID and there is nothing you can do to change that. You could choose to download them again with the new Apple ID, any paid apps will need to be purchased again.
    Hope that helps.

  • My laptop was stolen. How do I sync my old iphone to a new computer without losing my purchases (music & apps)?

    My laptop was stolen. How do I sync my old iphone to a new computer without losing my purchases (music & apps)?

    One of the reasons to include your iTunes library with your computer's backup along with all other important data that is kept separate from your laptop - not carried in the same case, etc.
    iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iDevice, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
    First you need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
    If you are in the US, you can do this now as well.

  • How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

  • How can i sync my old playlist to my new iPod shuffle?

    How can I sync my old playlist to my new iPod shuffle?  Everytime I try to sync it I get the little pop up box that asks if I want to transfer and delete what new songs I have already downloaded.....i know it has something to do with sharing music libraries but not sure how to do this....any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    You don't.
    If you do not have your contacts, then you cannot sync your contacts.
    You should ALWAYS maintain a backup copy of your computer.

  • How can I sync my iPhone 4 with a new MacBook Pro without losing all my data and settings?

    I used to sync my iPhone 4 with a PC running Windows XP until the hard drive died. Thankfully, I already had a backup of all my iTunes media (Songs, TV Shows, Movies, Podcasts, Apps, etc), so when I bought a new MacBook Pro, transferring my iTunes library was easy.
    My problem now is that I want to sync my iPhone 4 with my new MacBook Pro without losing all the data and settings. I have already used iTunes to back it up and transfered my purchases onto the mac. I just need help to sync the iPhone with the Mac without losing app data, emails, contacts, settings.
    Everytime I click on the tabs (to sync contacts, apps, music, et al), I get an error message that reads:
    "Are you sure you want to sync apps? All existing apps and their data on the iPhone “Ryan's iPhone” will be replaced with apps from this iTunes library."
    What do I do? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ryan

  • My laptop recently broke and I had to buy a new one. How do I sync my iphone 4 with the new laptop without losing all data?

    Hi there,
    Well the title says it all really.
    I have to sync my iphone 4 with my new laptop as the old one broke. How do I do this without losing all my pictures, music, contacts & things purchased form the itunes store?
    It seems really silly that everything gets wiped off the phone when using a different laptop. This problem must happen quite often as I am sure I am not the only person who has had a pc that has broken.
    I hope you someone can help. All the stuff on my phone is important to me.
    Many thanks

    Please search the forums. This has been covered here extensively.

  • HT1386 need to sync my old ipod with my new computer, How do I keep my old stuff on the new computer?

    How can I transfer stuff from my old Ipod to my new computer?

    Still did not work. I did everything listed. The program did not work as needed because it is only the free version and I should not have to pay for 3rd party software for something like this. Also, that article is outdated because windows 7 does not come with contacts software, but I managed to get it to work with a helpful post on another forum. Itunes still asked me to replace current iPod's data, I went ahead and clicked yes. I'll just go ahead and redownload all of my music and whatnot. Thanks anyway.

  • How can I replace an old HDD with a new larger one and keep exisiting data?

    I have a 1TB Seagate Barracuda drive in my Windows 7 64-bit desktop machine. It has 3 partitions, one is the boot drive. 
    This drive is four years old and I would like to replace it with a new one -- probably a 3TB Barracuda. I want the new drive
    to behave exactly like the old one -- not interested in upgrading to Windows 8 right now. 
    How would I go about cloning the old drive to the new one so that the new drive also has 3 partitions, but each one is bigger
    -- three times as big, to be exact, with everything working the same as on the old drive?
    I'm thinking that if I just mirror the old drive to the new (using cloning software), the new drive will have 3 smaller partitions
    totaling 1TB and a big empty space of 2TB. Can I then increase the sizes of the existing partitions without destroying any data? Would the boot drive still work?
    Or would it be better to create the 3 partitions of 1TB each on the new drive and then clone the old drive partitions to the
    new partitions? Would the cloning software be able to do that correctly, so everything would still work? Do I need to buy partitioning software? Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks.

    Move or copy all the content from the old computer or the backup of the old computer to the new computer.
