How could I transfer all purchased music to a new computer
I need to transfer all purchased music to a new computer.. Can I download them again or sync to the new computer??
Anything you want to transfer, just copy it to a USB flash drive or external hard drive, and from there to the new computer.
If you want to keep your iTunes library intact, as far as playcounts, playlists, etc, a few extra steps are required. First, on the old machine, run Library > Consolidate. Then copy the entire iTunes folder to the external device, and from there to the new machine.

For non-iTunes purchases you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

You need to sync the content from the old device before you can sync the new one.
iOS: Syncing with iTunes -
any suggestions....
Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

The hard disk on my laptop which contained my main i-tunes library crashed. I want to make sure I have a backup of my music and apps on a different computer. How can I transfer the music and such from my ipod touch to the new computer without erasing everything on my touch when I try to sync it? Do I just have to start over from scratch? Alot of my music is copied over from my cd collection.
There are a number of third-party apps which will allow you to copy media from an iOS device into a computer's iTunes library. A popular one is Senuti; there are others which are free.
Stop over at macupdate.com or http://download.cnet.com/mac/3151-20_4-0.html?tag=vtredir and do a search. -
Getting a new computer running windows 7. How do I get all my bookmarks and Add-ons, etc, etc, to my new computer?
Old computer is running XP with Firefox 4.

PaulThe user data is stored in the profile folder. You can copy the data manually by copying the contents of the profile folder, for details see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup or https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Backing+up+your+information
There are some add-ons and utilities that can make this process easier. The first one is the FEBE add-on ([http://softwarebychuck.com/febe/febe70.html] - The Firefox 4 version is currently in beta) which can be used to copy a profile. Another option is the free MozBackup utility ([http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com]) -
How do i put all my music on my new computer from my old computer
Hello people
I really cant figure out how to transfer my music. Theres got a better solution than burning it on to cds and then transfering that way! Could someone please help me i am a complete idiot when it come to technology.
thank you
marydWell your mac will have firewire but your dell may not have. Firewire isnt standard on all pcs.
If your pc has wireless lan then you could just try to share your music folder on your PC by right-clicking, going to sharing tab and turing it on for that folder. Next just see if you can wirelessly connect to your pc from your mac by clicking on the Go Menu in finder then Connect to Server and click browse.
Depending on how you have your pc setup your may see it on your mac right away then again you might need to change some network settings.
If you dont have wireless in your pc but do have a wired network port then you could buy a cross over network cable and connect the two machines with that and repeat the Connect to Server routine. If this doesnt work you could try installing Bonjour from the apple support area onto your pc as this is supposed to aid connectivity between mac and pc. I think its mainly for networking printers etc but may help. I have it on my pc and connected instantly to it at the first attemp with my macbook.
Of course, you could just burn a load of cds with your music on as im guessing that will sound a lot easier after reading all of the above! :P -
How can i transfer my iphone music to a new computer?
I have a new work computer and I want to put my iPhone music in my iTunes on that machine, but it won't let me. Why???
iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod, iPad, or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
First you need to authorize the computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone. -
