How do I get a song from my iphone on to my computer?

I bought an album from itunes on my iphone, yet it won't appear on my itunes library on my computer. When I look at the album on the itunes store on my computer it comes up as purchased. When I go on to purchased songs on the itunes store on my computer, it doesn't come up either. However the album still appears on my phone and can be played normally. This has never happened to me before, as the songs usually appear on my computer straight away through icloud. Any help would be appreaciated.

No worries, solved it now. Just had to sync my phone & computer and it uploaded! Thanks

I just got a new computer and downloaded itunes. How do i get my songs from my iphone onto my new computer?

I just got a new laptop and want to transfer my music library on my iphone to my computer. I have downloaded itunes and authorized the new computer. When I tried to sync my music it said it would erase my phone and replace it with my new itunes library (nothing in other words)

Transfer your library from your old computer. If that isn't possible then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

I have subscribed to itunes match. How do I get the songs from my iphone into my itunes library which only shows the songs I have purchased? Lots of the songs on my iphone were taken from CD's years ago which is why I thought itunes match would help.

How do I get the songs from my iPod to my new computer if they wont all sync when I do "transfer purchases"

I am trying to sync the purchases from the old iPod onto my computer. I purchased all of the songs on it via wifi and do not have them backed up. I need them on my computer to place them onto my new iPod 4th generation. I also have recently created my own account seperate from my parents due to the fact that I am moving out soon. Is there a way to set a new iTunes up on my computer and how do I transfer my old songs on my old iPod to the new account? Thanks!

Connect the device to the computer, do not sync.
In iTunes select File > Transfer purchases.
This will transfer all content purchased via iTunes from the iPod to the computer.
If you have not done so already, you will also need to authorize this computer for your account.
Store > Authorize Computer.

How do I get the music from my iphone to my new computer?

We just got a new computer and not all of my songs were from itunes. Is there any way of getting them from my iphone to my computer?

Open iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box "Disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods" and choose Ok. Then connect your iPhone.
If at any point you get a message that your phone is linked to another library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your phone.
iTunes will only let you copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod or iPhone to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
Purchased applications can be downloaded over again, see this article for details: How to redownload purchased applications from the App Store
For everything else (music from CDs, other downloads and including iTunes purchased songs and in some cases, videos and games) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod Touch or iPhone. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer data (such as playcounts and ratings), movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well.

You copy them from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
The iphone is not a backup/storage device.

Hey kbert73
I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

How do I get my songs from my pc to my mac?

I am getting a mac within the week and I currently have a pc dell . I was wondering how do I get my songs from my itunes on my dell to my itunes on my pc?
I need the shortest and best explained way since I'm going to be a first time mac owner with my new mac . I usually can figure stuff out like this but I'm totally confused.
Thank you for helping

Choose Consolidate Library from the Library section of the File menu, copy the iTunes folder(not just iTunes Music) to an external drive, put that folder on the new computer, launch iTunes with the Option key held down, and point it to that library. Alternatively, back it up to CDs or DVDs and restore the backup on the new computer.

I asked " how do I get my songs from my itunes library to my ipod?" and you said to sync to ipod. Now, I did see that on the left hand side, but now it's gone. What do I do? I tried "file" and sync, but it did not do anything.

I asked, "how do I get my songs from my itunes library to my ipod?" and you said to sync it to the ipod. I saw that at one time on the left side, but it's not there anymore. I tried clicking on "file" and then on sync, but it didn't work. The word was lighter than the others, so I figured I would not be able to click on it.

If the iPod is no longer recognized in iTunes click here. iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
