How can I import my itunes library to a non apple phone?

I have an Ipod, which I use.  I also have a new Iphone 4 which I cannot stand.  The battery does not last a day, and that's without listening to the music, just phone calls and texts!  This is irritating enough, but the fact that I only got it because apple don't allow you to have your music on any other device if it's not made by apple!
I want to go back to my old faithful flip phone where the battery lasts a week and be able to have access to my music.  Problem is Itunes doesn't recognise this as a device in order to import my music onto!
Is there any way to do this or do I have to carry both Ipod and phone when out?
Any advice would be greatly appriciated as this has been bothering me for years.
Thanks *
( the phone I want to put my music onto is an Alcatel OT 810D Fold)

iTunes stopped adding DRM to music a long time ago. You can put your media on any device that will play it, you just need to use the tools supplied with the other device rather than iTunes.
My iPhone battery lasts me the day, every day, and gets charged at night. Perhaps you have apps that have stalled running in the background keeping the CPU busy, perhaps your screen is too bright and stays on for too long, or you've enabled Bluetooth when you don't need it, or it could even be that it is faulty.

  • How can I import m itunes library to a new computer

    How can I import m itunes library to a new computer

    Use Migration Assstant to move all content from an old computer to a new.
    For iTunes alone:
    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
    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 iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
    For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168 
    Windows users see tip at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18879381
    If you put it 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.)

  • How can I import my iTunes library from my iPod classic to my new computer?

    I have just purchased a Macbook Air and would like  to transfer the iTunes music files from my iPod classic into iTunes on the new computer. I can't access my old windows computer.

  • HT4352 My iTunes library is on my brand new PC. It cannot recognize my wireless network. How can I share the iTunes library with my new Apple TV?

    What do I need to do?

    Preliminary conditions:
    Through settings, you must log the Apple TV in with your iCloud account.
    In iTunes, choose Advanced > Turn on Home Sharing from the menu bar.
    The Apple TV and your computer must be connect to the same network.
    The Apple TV is sold in many different countries. However, iTunes is discriminately serviced. Whereas in the United States, movies and musics are sold in their entirety, there is no such services in Korea ― only app purchases. If your iCloud (or Apple) acount falls into the latter category, and you login to the Apple TV with that account, Apple TV will automatically convert its systems to the similar limitations.
    Here's what happens when I login with my U.S. account to the Apple TV.
    But when I login with my Korean account, theres only the 'Computers' and 'Settings' menu.

  • How can I move my iTunes library from one Mac to another?

    I recently purchased a new 13" MacBook Air to replace my older 17" MacBook Pro. 
    How can I move my iTunes library to my new MBA? 
    I also plan on purchasing a new iPhone in the next month or so.  Can I move my songs from my iPod to that too?

    Easy. Copy it from the old Mac to the new one.
    There are a variety of techniques including Setup Assistant (as soon as you get your new MacBook Air, it will ask you if you want to transfer information from another computer), Migration Assistant (if you elect to transfer information later), enabling file sharing between the two computers, or copying your music to a flash drive or other storage device followed by importing it to iTunes.
    iTunes: How to move your music from one computer to another
    Once your music library and everything else you want to transfer from the MacBook Pro resides on the new MBA, sync your iPod to the MBA. Sync the iPhone too when you get it, and they will both have identical iTunes music libraries.

  • How can I share my iTunes library with 2 iTunes accounts?

    How can I share my iTunes library between me and my wife?
    I do not want to set-up 2 seperate accounts on my mac. Do not want to do home sharing or anything like this. 
    I just would like to connect my iPad to ONE itunes library and at the same time connect my wifes iPad to the SAME itunes library. Can this be done? How? Thanks! Maybe the answer is something really easy like "just connect both to the computer and sync them".
    Thanks!

    Plug them in and use them.
    That is all you need to do.
    In the answer from Apple I do not find anything about how the 2 exisiting iTunes accounts will be handled.
    They will be handled fine.
    All purchases from both iTunes accounts can be sync'd to both/either iPads with no problem.
    I have three iTunes accounts (me and two daughters), 3 iPhones, an iPad and a few iPods.
    Any/all content can be sync'd to any device, no problems.

  • I just purchased a Macbook, iPad, and iPhone and I am trying to sync my iTunes library from my Windows laptop.  How can I sync my iTunes library to all devices?

    I just recently purchased a MacBook Pro (13 inch with Retina display), an iPad Air 2, and an iPhone 6 plus.  Before these purchases, I was using a Windows 7 laptop to manage my iTunes library and iTunes purchases.  I am in need of syncing my iTunes library on my iPod classic (160 GB) with all of my new Apple devices.  How can I sync my iTunes library with all of my new devices?

    Devices can only sync to one library at a time. You can, however, have multiple copies of libraries on different computers though it can be tricky making sure they are always synchronized.  You can put your Windows iTunes on your Mac.
    Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive.  Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes.  At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.
    When this is to a new computer 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.)

    How can i get my itunes library on my fiances' iphone 5?  I have an iphone 4s, ipad and a Mac book pro.  I thought I could have my music on up to ten different devises?  I signed in on his phone and my music is in his itunes account but it is not in his music file.

    I regret to say that you need a new computer. That G5, as good as it still is, simply cannot run the required software to be used with the latest iPhones and other software.

  • How can I "refresh" my iTunes Library?

    How can I "refresh" my iTunes Library? I recently moved my library to an external and made the source folder change in preferences. My library now shows all exclamations asking me to locate the files. What is the quick fix to locate or "refresh" all?

    Michael,
    Your response here seems exaclty like the answer that I need.  My logic board broke and I had to get a new one.  Sent to Apple and all is working again.  I didn't have an super recent time machine back up....my last one was 2 months old.  I was able to salvage my music from the computer before sending in for repair and when I got it back, I reloaded my music file onto my machine.  I use iTunes match so maybe that kept many of my files/playlists etc in order.  But my iTunes is asking me to download many songs that are showing in iTunes and are in a folder in iTunes.  These are songs I downloaded during that 2 month break between time machine backups.  I think a refresh will fix this issue.  But when I follow your steps above, I not certain what file to choose.  I tried to go to my itunes ---> itunes media ---> music but that doesn't work.  Do I need to choose the "iTuens Library.itl" file?  I use my playlists for my job so I don't want to just guess here and lose everything.  I did do a backup of my playlists so hopefully I'm protected if something happens but just want a bit more guidance on this.  Thank you for your help and your time and let me know if you have any questions. 
    Best,
    Kirk

  • How can I synchronise my iTunes Library on my iMac with the one on my MacBook?

    How can I synchronise my iTunes Library on my iMac with the one on my MacBook?

    Carolyn:
    I have almost 10,000 songs/cuts in my music collection and, because of the poor quality of iTunes music, very few of those songs/cuts come from iTunes.  My music came from me ripping it disc by disc over hundreds of hours. I would like to be able to add a disc and have both the iMac AND the MacBook music files (plus an external backup) be updated.  Surely there is an intelligent, relatively easy to implement procedure for doing this. Perhaps I am missing something but your response doesn't seem to address the sync issue with all its implications...

  • Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

    Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

    Thank you Joe - I tried this but it's only showing a teensy amount of music - the stuff on the second users account as opposed to the giagntic library on the 'main' account. I actually went to a Genius Bar and they said that apple doesn't really want you to share music between accounts - parents don't want to hear their kids music etc. Which seemed strange, but it might be the case sadly   Thanks anyway!
