How do I download my library to my new laptop

How do I download my itunes library to my new laptop

Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer or the backup of the old computer to the new computer.
Installing iTunes and/or signing in with an Apple ID has never caused content to magically appear.

  • HT1364 I recently got a new laptop but I can't retrieve my iTunes folder from my old pc, how do I get my library on my new laptop as I don't want to set up a new one.

    I recently had to buy a new laptop as my pc no longer worked.  I can't get my iTunes media folder off my old pc so how do I get my library onto my new laptop as I don't want to create a new library and erase everything off my iPhone.

    There is no such thing as a "sub-account."  Also, you probably mean iTunes library, when you say "account."  Your "account" in iTunes is your Apple ID, which is what you use to sign in to the iTunes Store to make purchases.  iPods are associated with an iTunes library, not with an Apple ID (iTunes Store account).  You'll need to clarify...
    So, this is what I think you are saying.  You previously shared an iTunes library on a computer with your friend.  Your old iPod was synced to that iTunes library. 
    You got an iPhone, and at that time, you set up your own iTunes library.  Is that on a different computer?  How does the iPhone affect your question about the iPod?
    You got a new iPod.  What is your "old iTunes"?  Is that the iTunes library you shared with your friend?

    my old laptop crashed how do i get my library on my new laptop?

    An external bay is something like this: External 2.5 SATA to USB Hard Drive Caddy Case
    A small Philips driver is usually all you need to access the hard drive in the leptop. You (or a technically adept friend) remove the drive from the old laptop, put it in the bay, hook it up to your new computer and read what can be recovered from it. Your iTunes library would typically be in X:\Users\<User>\Music\iTunes where X: is the letter assigned to the drive.
    There's a chance the drive won't work at all, but often it will work for reading data even when you can no longer get it to run your operating system. Seems like a small investment to potentially recover all your lost data, not just iTunes.
    If the drive won't work, then the link I posted earlier explains how you can recover all the media and data from your existing device into a new iTunes library. Once you dont this you can restore the backup of the old device to the new one.

  • HT4539 how do i download my library into my i phone

    how do I download my library to my ipod

    If you have your library on your computer's iTunes then connect the iPod to it and select it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you have iTunes 11 and haven't already done so then you can enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar, option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the right-hand side use the Music tab to select and sycn your music to your iPod.

    If it's an iPod Touch then depending upon what country that you are in you might also be able to re-download past music purchases from the store directly on your iPod via the Purchased tab in the iTunes app : re-downloading.
    The page that you've posted from, automatic downloads, only applies to future purchases.

  • How do i download previous purchases to my new computer. my old computer crashed and i lost my itunes library

    how do i download previous purchases to my new computer. my old computer

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to backup ( not good), then you can transfer from an ipod: File>Transfer Purchases
    If you are in the U.S. you can use the cloud:

  • How can I transfer iTunes library to a new Apple ID?

    I have a substantial quantity of music in iTunes on a old lap top. All the music has been put on to my iPod. None of it was purchased from iTunes but was uploaded from CD's. I have since moved from the UK to France with a new lap top and now have a new e-mail address. The old email address which is now defunct, was assigned to the iTunes account on the old laptop. I downloaded iTunes on to my new laptop and assigned a Frecnh email to it. I want to get rid of the old lap top, but need to transfer the library to the new Apple ID. I have tried to change my Apple ID on the old laptop to match the one I am currently using but do not appear to be able to do so as Apple will not permit me to used the email address assigned to the new account. Is there any way to transfer the library over?
