    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.

    The application ITunes presumes that the information, data, music, etc in its database is the correct master. In doing so, it will overwrite and replace any information previously on the phone. You probably will want to transfer the iTunes data directory from it's original location (presumably the system yoiu used to sync with your iPhone previously), the the new system.
    If your iPhone has data from a different Apple ID, than the ID you will use on the new notebook, then be prepared to lose the data on the phone if you sync. It's meant to work that way.

    How can i get notification of new emails in Mail without having the application open?

    Leave Mail running, but close its window (click red dot or ⌘W).
    Right-click the Mail icon and use "Options" to enable "Open at Login".  In the "Login Items" tab of "Users & Groups" system preference, check the "Hide" box next to Mail so it doesn't open a window when starting.

  • How do you remove files from your start up disk without deleting any files?, How do you remove files from your start up disk without deleting any files?

    Hi,
    I was wondering if anyone knew how to remove files from the start up disk without deleting any files?
    I am unable to add any more photos and even download the latest updates because the start up disk is full....
    Is it possible to move the files off the start up disk without deleting them?
    I would appreciate feedback,
    Thanks
    Sammy

    Well you can move them to an external drive but this will delete them from the internal drive. Which is what you have to do to free up disk space.

  • How can I cancel an app update in iOS 6 without deleting it?

    I usually just update all my apps, but this time I don't want to. The app is foxtube (youtube caching player). I just realized (after I pressed update) that the new update disables caching (by request of youtube), which defeats the whole purpose of the app in the 1st place. Currently I paused the download, but how can I stop it from resuming? I don't want to delete it because I don't have backup of previous version in my pc itunes. I downloaded it via wifi. I really like this apps feature because I can watch videos later without buffering, & also to show it to my friends. But the new updates makes it totally worthless. Please help!!

    You'd do that if you wanted to add in all your contacts from facebook - it makes it useful to find out who's using other apps - 4 square - whatsapp, facetime etc.   I had many facebook contacts that I don't call, however if they are using other things, I might be talking to them.  So yeah, I decided to bring in all my facebook contacts.  It has created a mess that I'm trying to clean up though.  The mess is that I have a lot of duplicate contacts ( a facebook contact of Mary Smith and a contact on my phone of Aunt Mary).  I know that when I go and edit one of the 2, there is an option to link the 2, which will then merge the data (adds email info, birthday, facebook contact info, twitter etc) but it doesn't delete one of the contacts.  It should give an option to delete one of the merged contacts.. but it doesn't.  I'm not sure how to fix this.  I've been asking the boards here, but no solution has been given.
    There has to be a way to do this (easily) that is

  • How can I connect my ipod to a new computer without deleting all my music

    I just got a brand new laptop and when I connected my ipod and iphone 4 it prompts to syns a delete everything.  How can I avoid that.  I tried using the manual setting, but once I press apply it asks again to sync and delete all my music. Is there any other way to accomplish this?

    That's exactly the way it is designed to work.
    When you attempt to sync your iDevice with a new computer/library, iTunes will wipe the contents of the device and replace it with the contents from the library on the new computer.
    To avoid losing content, first copy or move the media from your old computer to your new computer.  Once this is done, the iDevice can be synced without worrying about iTunes removing the content as it can be synced back.

  • How can I take off my messages from my iPhone without deleting them

    I want to take off my messages from my iPhone 4, but I don't want to delete them.  Is there a way to take them off and save them somewhere.

    You can do it, but you need another library signed in to iTunes match. That second library shouldn't have any local files stored.
    Delete the entry from that second library and it will ask you to confirm that you want to remove the file from the cloud. Confirm that you do.
    Now, as long as you don't delete the file from your main library it will have an iCloud status of "removed" and won't be in the cloud or try add it again.
    However, if you sign out of match on that computer and then sign in again it will then re-add it to the cloud, so this isn't a method to use if you tend to turn match on and off much.
    I have had the Beatles Mono albums in my main library, but not in the cloud, for a while now without any problems.

  • How can I update my iPhone 4 to iOS 6 without deleting all of my data.

    I have not updated my iPhone's software since I bought it in the summer of 2011, so I would like to do so in order to access new features and new apps. The computer on which I had all of my files backed up broke and I am unable to remove any of my files from its hard drive. I know that I can transfer purchases to a new computer and sync it that way, but I have many non-purchased songs from CD's and such, as well as photos, that I don't want to lose. I'd rather have old software than have all of my stuff deleted, so is there a way to pull my nonpurchased items from my iPhone to iTunes or is there nothing I can do?
    Thank you so much for your help!

    This will help, even though it isn't exactly the same as your situation: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

  • How can i synchronise my iphone to a new pc without deleting it?

    i got a new pc some time ago but when i try to synchronise it to the new pc it says i have to delete everything on my iphone and synchronise with the new itunes library. for some reasons it did add some songs by itself and i cant delte them.

    if you're keen on keeping the music on the iPhone and that music wasn't purchased with iTunes, then don't sync.
    You can only transfer purchases (apps, music, whatever) from your device to a computer that's been purchased with iTunes. Not other things, like music that was ripped from CD's and whatnot. This has everything to to with legal reasons and music industry rights and stuff.
    check out this article for transferring the purchases: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848
    you can authorise 5 different computers for your purchases, check out this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420

  • HT4847 How can I see what's been uploaded to iCloud and delete any unwanted?

    I only have my contacts & photos automatically backed up to iCloud.  I've gotten a warning that I'm at the limit of my iCloud storage amount. I'd like to see what is stored on my iCloud account to see if there are any unwanted items I can delete, thus freeing up space before purchasing additional storage. Is this not possible?

    You can't remove specific files from a backup. You can delete the entire backup.  Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, there you can specify what data to back up going forward. You can do that after deleting the backup (tap the Delete Backup button on same page) and then begin a new backup.
