How do I find the Music Library I have been using ?

I have gone from the G 5 to a Mac Mini 2 GHz and all was well . That was before a balky fire wire Lacie Disk didn't show up and the cloned folder failed to produce playlists for 12,000 or so tunes . I would like to find that data for the iTunes preference choice in advanced . Any ideas ?

I am not fully comprehending what it is you are asking or your setup. Okay, you have switched from using a G5 to a Mini. Got that. There's something here about a bad LaCie drive but it isn't clear what role it is playing, and if it has been replaced... You want to find playlist data using the iTunes preferences choice. I'm not saying your data isn't somewhere but you're not going to find it that way. Your playlists are in the library.itl file or its sister file, library.xml. Those are in your main iTunes folder wherever that happens to be. If it was on the dead LaCie, look on yoru backup. No backup, no library file, no playlists. You need to start iTunes from that ibrary file by holding down the option key while starting iTunes, then guide it to the file you wish to use.

Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?

You can't do that.
And before you decide to store any music that you own on a computer at work, talk to your IT department. Many organizations do not permit it for legal reasons. Standard policies are that anything stored on company owned computers is the property of the company. It could not be legally stored on their machines unless you transfer the licenses and all copies, physical and digital, to the company, meaning you no longer own the music. If they were to be audited and could not prove that they own the music, they would be subject to copyright violation penalties. Just use your iPod when you're at the office if you want to listen to music.

You can't view your photos in the iPhoto library in Time Machine vis the Finder. You must enter Time Machine, go back in time to the library you want to restore and restore it?

How do i sync the music library on my iPhone 5s to my macbook air

how do i sync the music library on my iPhone 5s to my macbook air. The original sync was on a work computer i no longer have. Please help!

You will have to search on the Internet for third party software that will allow you to do that. For business reasons, Apple has made the update process a one way street: ie: from the computer to the iPod/iPhone only.
Ciao.

My email address has changed and when I try to play purchased songs it asks me to authorize another computer under the old email address. How do I play the music that I have purchased? My account is current with the new email address.

You may have already done this, but try de-authorizing your computer (through the iTunes:Store menu) and then re-authorizing it.

I recently had to completely restore my laptop, so I lost the music on my itunes. It's still on my iphone, but how can I keep the music I already have and continue to add more music from the newly set up itunes again?

I recently had to completely restore my laptop, so I lost the music on my itunes. It's still on my iphone, but how can I keep the music I already have and continue to add more music from the newly set up itunes again? Is there actually a way to do this? I can't help but wonder what the stupid icloud is for if my music is still somewhere in the 'cloud' but it's zero help for restoring music when it's lost on a computer....any help even a site that get's around apple would be great!

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
Have you failed to do this?
If so, not good, you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to your computer. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You can also redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

New computer: How do I find the serial number so I can use final cut?

On the assumption you want to install Final Cut Express (and not something from the app store), you find the serial number on on the documentation that came with the FCE disks. If you do not have the documentation, you are out of luck.

Were you running iOS 7 beta? If so, as a developer you need to log into the Developer forum for assistance.

E6 - How do you update the music library?

I just ugraded from the E73. Moved my microSD card over with my music. There is no where to update the music library so it sees all my music on the SD card.
Am I missing something here?

After repeatedly sliding my finger along the upper right corner of the screen (no icon of any sort present), the Options menu suddeny appeared in the lower right corner, and I was able to update the library. Seems like this might be another situation where the OS was not properly customized for the E6-00. No help from any of Nokia's documentation, either. NO mention of how refreshing the library is accomplished in either the User Guide (which, BTW, still reflects Anna) or the Nokia Support web site. Pretty poor!
