How do I get my mail off my G3 and onto my G5 ?

I'm using a POP account, and getting my mail via Netscape. Is there a way to get all my old mail on the new computer ?
Please keep your answers non-technical and simple.
Trying to transfer mail to my G5, running OS 10.4.9. It's got a 2 ghz PPC processor.

"When you say mail the document/file, what do you want me to mail ? I have the individual mails, but they are not in anything but the Inbox and Sent folders."
Ok, you were using an ancient version of Netscape. Going from memory here but, do the following:
System Folder>Preferences Folder>Netscape Users, then to a folder with the profile name>Mail Folder.
Email the following mail files to yourself as attachments:
Drafts
Inbox
Sent
Templates (only if you have any to transfer over)
Unsent Messages (only if you have any to transfer over)
Do not remove the files showing the following suffixes:
.snm
.sbd
When you install FireFox, I am assuming you will be using it's email client - Thunderbird.
Home>Library>Thunderbird>Profiles>lppam3ms.default>Mail>Local Folders
Drag your Netscape email files into the Local Foldrs
Quit out of Thunderbird.
Restart your computer.
Open Mail & use its Export option to export your email from Thunderbird.
No need to restart unless promted to do so.

How do i get my music off my pc and onto my mac ?

This is probs the oldest question out there, but how do i get my music off my pc and onto my mac ?

Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes. At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.
If this is to a new computer and you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

How do you get Voice Memos off the iPhone and onto my Mac???

Is this yet another iPhone dead end??
I used the Voice Memo app that comes with the iPhone to record some rehearsals and now I want to move them to my Mac, edit them, make CDs, share online.
I can't find any way to get them off the iPhone, unless I click the "Share" button, which means I can email them. But, it won't let me email the longer ones. I don't know how large the files are, but it just won't do it. I don't see any other facility for moving these files to my Mac. What is up with that???? iTunes provides no access to these files.
Is there some proprietary utility for the Mac that will allow me to access these files and move them to my Mac??? It would be nice if the iPhone would show up as a mounted volume which I could then browse for files, but that would make too much sense and be contrary to the control freak nature of Apple and it's iPhones/iPod Touches. I would call it another lousy user experience, but it's just a user non-experience, a complete dead end.
Is there any way to get these Voice Memo files off of the iPhone besides emailing them??

Thank you for replying!
That kb article refers to the iPod Nano and not the iPhone nor the iPod Touch.
The Synchronizing section you pointed to does not work. I have a big bunch of voice memos on the iPhone. I tried the sync. Three of them were moved to the Mac, the rest were ignored. Four others were moved to iTunes Music/Music/Unknown with numbered names (i had given several of the voice memos names with the Custom label on the iPhone). For the synch I selected "Include voice memos."
After a sync, or several syncs, none of the other voice memos were moved to the Voice Memo playlist, nor are they in the iTunes Music library.
How do you get them to sync? I need to move them off of the iPhone and onto my Mac!

I have an old video ipod, how do I get the photos off of it and onto my laptop (windows 8.1)?

This iPod is so old. The battery doesn't really work anymore. So I want to take the pictures off of it and get them on my laptop.

I'm not sure. My laptop says that the charger isn't recognized, but it works fine with my iPod touch. So it's about a 50/50 chance I can get it to work. I got it working yesterday, and I could see on iTunes how much storage it had left and all that, so I think if I just play around with it some I can get it to work.

My computer crashed. How do I get the songs off my iPod and onto my iTunes?

I have a second generation iPod Touch. It's an 8GB. I had basically filled it to capacity with music with a few apps and videos on there. Then, my computer crashed. So, after downloading the latest version of iTunes i tried to sync up my iPod and get the music back. Instead it asks me to "Erase & sync" or "Transfer purchases". My iTunes is fresh and has no music on it, so I am not going to erase and sync it. And most of my music was not purchased from the iTunes Store, so I am not going to transfer the purchases because it would have a fraction of my music on the iPod. My iPod hasn't been synced up in days because i will lose all or most of my music, but I do have all my music on it. I was just wondering if there was any way to import ALL the songs off my iPod and put them on my computer as well as iTunes!

For everything else (including purchases) 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.

How do i get my money off my itunes and onto another itunes

i forgot my itunes security questions answers and put money on my itunes that i cant use but i have another itunes and would like too get the money off this itunes i need help

You can't transfer a balance from one account to another account. Have you tried getting the questions reset ?
If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or, if it's available in your country, you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

How can I get my music off the cloud and onto my iphone only?

I have an iPhone 5 (not sure if it's an S or a C). I have the newest IOS on it. How can I sync it so that my music is on my phone and NOT on the cloud? It takes way too long to get my music to play when it's stored on the cloud. I can't find anywhere in the sync instructions to help me with this.

You can sync your iPhone to a computer running iTunes.

How do I get my music off the iPod back onto my computer after a crash....?
Restore the music form your most recent hard drive backup.
You do make backups of your hard drive, right?
There has to be a way.
There's many ways. If you search the forums, you'll find dozens of solutions. You can use the search box in the upper right portion of the discussions website.
Other wise what's the point of the ** thing.
It's an audio player... not a backup device.
If you rely on your iPod as a backup of your music.. then you are misusing the device. It's not intended to be used in this manner. Apple makes it difficult to get music off the iPod as a method to hinder music piracy.
