How do i get itunes account on new computer?

how do i get my itunes account on a new computer?

An account is nothing more than a login and password.
Sign in.
If what was really meant was how to get the media on the new computer, copy it (the ENTIRE iTunes folder) from the old computer to the new computer.

  • How do I switch ITunes account to new computer

    Old lap top met a tragic end due to a 4 year old and a cup of OJ.  We purchased a new iMac and need to transfer the ITunes account to the new computer, but we aren't sure how to do it.

  • How do I get iTunes on a new computer to recognize and use my files on the local drive?  My music files on iCloud have been recognized.

    My old computer failed.  All files, including iTunes were backed up on a separate drive.  All files have been loaded on the new computer.  iTunes was reloaded, and recognizes all files on iCloud, but does not link to the files on the computer.  How can I re-establish that linkage?

    Hello jzinser,
    I am not sure on how you reset up your iTunes library on your new computer. If you copied the music by dragging on top of iTunes, then the media would have been put into the proper location. If you have the media copied to your computer and have not established in iTunes where it sits, then you will need to do that within the preferences in iTunes. Take a look at the articles below for more information to help sort this out.

  • How do you get iTunes to recognise new/changed Airport names? These Airports have attached speakers.

    How do you get iTunes to recognise new/changed Airport names? These Airports have attached speakers. Itunes showes the old names of these Airports but they have been renamed in a newly reconfigured network. Itunes will play through the attached Airport attached speakers. The Airport utility shows the correct new names.

    Hi turingtest2 - thanks for the reply. As you say It is how it is - and I have three workstations in this home (not counting three for my children and one for the family) and I pretty much always have more than one OS on each - that's how it is for me. I shouldn't have to worry about how many OSs I have (or how often I change them) just to have music while I'm working - through the PC sound system that is. I never have to worry about any other software, only iTunes. Once in a while (in the past) I've made a vendor call if I changed to many things to often (like CPU, GPU, memory, etc - or even a replacement MB) - but that hasn't happened in a couple years (at least since Vista) so I think (hope) they have fixed that for good. And even then it was a quick call and problem resolved. The only (glaring) constant problem is iTunes - limiting my own use of my own music (by counting an OS as a physical PC). Even with VM (which is just another OS) - although you can Attach things to multiple active OSs - it's still your own (purchased) music - and all on one PC. Thanks again!

    Try the Store column from iTunes' menu.  There should be a "sign in" or some similar entry there.

    File>Transfer Purchases in iTunes will transfer items purchased from the iTunes store.
    If you have items from other sources (ripped CD's, etc.) on the phone, you can't transfer those without purchasing 3rd party software.
    Restore the backup of your old computer or just copy the data from the old computer to the new one.

  • How can I use iTunes on my new computer, without lossing all my music?

    How can I use iTunes on my new computer, without losing all my music?
    I don't want to rebuy everything I have purchased over the years.
    Your help would be greatly appreciated.

    They should be in your itunes media folder. Use an external hard drive and just copy that to your new computer. I'm sure there's an easier way like this one (iTunes>File>Library>Export Library>External Hard Drive) but I never tried it before. Anyways, once that's done, just simply authorize your itunes account to play music you bought on to the new computer.

  • Is there a way to get Itunes on my new computer to retrieve purchased songs

    Is there a way to get Itunes on my new computer to retrieve purchased songs without connecting to my old computer or using disks?

    If you have those purchases on an iPod, simply dock the iPod & you will be asked if you want to sync your purchases iPod back into iTunes.

    You restore the media to your new computer using the backup you made of your old computer before it died. You did backup your computer, right?

  • Getting iTunes library onto new computer

    Ok, so about a month ago, my computer died of a broken motherboard. the hard drive did survive, however, and now lives on in an external case. i purchased a new computer, and do not know how to go about getting all of my music onto it. i currently have:
    1) An iPod nano full of my music
    2) my old computer's hard drive, also full of the same music
    3) My new computer, with NO music at all on it
    What would be the best way to get my entire music library into iTunes on my new computer? The iPod or the old computer's hard drive? what would be the easiest way to do it? i do have quite a few songs purchased from iTunes. Thanks in advance.

  • How do i get itunes to scan my computer for mp3 files

    Hello,
    I just got a new computer and I have all my old mp3 files on my disc.  How do I get itunes to scan my drive and import all my 10,000 songs at one time?

    When you first install iTunes, it offers to do a one-time scan of your hard drive.
    If you miss that opportunity, you can add music at any time using the command File > Add Folder to Library.  That command brings up a dialog where you can navigate to the folder you want to add, e.g. My Music.
