How do i get all my apps and music from my old laptop onto my new one?

Could someone help me please? My laptop died i am unable to turn it on or anything.So i have brought a new laptop, i have installed i-tunes and authorised my laptop but none of my apps or other purchases have appeared in it. Can some please tell me how i can get all my apps,music and other stuff i had onto the i-tunes on my new laptop?

You can use your backup to populate the iTunes library on your new computer. If you havn't bothered maintaining a backup then apps can be re-downloaded from the app store for free (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519), but media (music/films/tv shows) can only be downloaded once from iTunes (which is one reason why you are advised to make a backup). Purchases made on the iPhone can be transferred off it via File > Transfer Purchases. It's possible, if you do a search on google, that you might find utilities that can help you copy the contents of your iPhone.
You will also find a search box on the right hand side of this window where you can search for similar threads to yours, and which might have more info in them.

I am going to purchse a new 27in iMac. I have a 21 inch single core intel chip iMac purchased in 2006. I want to transfer my music from iTunes (3600 songs) and my photos from iPhoto (28000). Can this be done without using an external hard drive? I backed up all my songs from iTunes but I have yet to understand how they show up on the hard drive.

Copy the entire iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer to move iTunes content.
As for pictures, copy them from where there are on the old computer to the new computer... this has nothing to do with iTunes.
Alternatively, if both computers are Windows based, use the Windows Easy File Transfer Utility to move everything.

HT3819 Is it OK for me to use home sharing just as a way of getting my music from my old laptop to my new one before I go off to uni?

I literally just need to move all my music and TV shows that are on the itunes on my old laptop onto my new one before I go to uni next week, is this the quickest way? Or will homesharing get really confusing as my little brother is then nabbing my old laptop for himself and will be doing his ipod on there for him?

It is not the fastest way, but you can do this.
Just copy from one machine to the other.
Type " move itunes library" into the google search bar.

If you don't want to use it, just copy your music and pictures to an external drive and transfer them to the Mac

I just bought a new ipod shuffle, how can i transfer music from my old ipod onto the new one

How do I transfer from my old ipod to my new ipod

You can't transfer it directly. If the old iPod is set to sync to your iTunes library on the computer, everything on the iPod is in your iTunes library. Just set up the shuffle to sync from your iTunes library as desired.
If the old iPod is set to Manually manage music, AND there are songs on the iPod that are not in your current iTunes library, please post back.

My macbook pro logic board died. I had all my music on an external drive. How do I get my iTunes library, playlists etc. from my dead computer onto my new one?

My logic board died on my old macbook pro. I have a new one, but I want to get my iTunes library off my old hard drive and put it on my new one. I had set up my old MBP to store all my iTunes music on an external drive, so I have the music. The iTunes program was on the old MBP hard drive.How do I essentially recreate my previous iTunes library, playlists, etc on my new laptop?

You will need the iTunes Library.itl file which generally lives in ~/Music/iTunes/. You can recover this from the backups you were making before the HDD died. Otherwise, you cannot recreate the library.

How do get all the apps I had on my old iPad onto my new iPad?

You cannot transfer anything from one account to another. Purchases are always tied to the account from which they weere purchased.
