How do i get my music from my iphone, onto itunes? Plz help

Hi, I have had my Iphone for two years now, but only got my macbook some months ago. Before i got my computer, i bought my music over the app itunes on my Iphone. My phone is broken so I'm sending it to reparation very soon, and they say i should have a backup for everything. I do have a backup for everything, except for my music. I have tried several tired synchronizing my phone on my mac (the automatic way), but it still wont come on my itunes. So, the music is on my phone, but not on my macbook. I almost clicked "Sync music" on itunes (macbook), but it would delete every bit of music or tunes i had. So of course, i did not do that.
So my quiestion is: How do i get my music onto my computer, so i can get a backup??? Plz answer asap, because I have to send my phone soon.
Thanks

Hello JWILDT,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Since you have purchased the content from iTunes on your iPhone, simply transfer purchases from your iPhone in to iTunes.

  • How do i get my music from the iphone to itunes?

      my desk top recently bit the dust on me so I got myself a lap top. I have itunes installed but how do I transfer my music from the iphone 3gs to the itunes?

    Purchased from iTunes or acquired from somewhere else.
    For purchases make sure you authorize your computer in iTunes and go to File > Transfer Purchases.
    For other songs you will need 3rd party software. Which one depends on what type of computer you have.
    Easiest way to put your music is to use your backup from your old computer and restore it on the new one.

  • How do I get my music from my iphone into itunes library

    I have tried everything I can see to get my music from my iphone to my itunes library?
    I've just got a new iphone 4 and want all my music put onto my new phone but again I don't know what else to do.

    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases
    Everything should be on your computer, just sync it to the new iphone.

    I have all my music on my ipod but I can't get that music onto my new laptop , how do I do that?

    At a guess you followed the process in HT1364 - iTunes for Windows: Moving your iTunes Media folder which would have moved the media folder to a new path of your choice. This process leaves the library database files back in the original location of <User's Music>\iTunes. Often people assume that all they need is now on the external drive and wipe the internal drive, or discard their old computer, before backing up the all important iTunes folder. If you have a backup of your user's profile folder from before the upgrade the iTunes library folder should be in there somewhere. Restore it to <User's Music> and your original library should pop back into existence. The external drive would need to have the same drive letter that it had previously.
    A more effective way to relocate the library is to move the entire iTunes folder to the external drive, then hold down shift when starting iTunes and keep holding until asked to choose or create a library. You would then choose the file iTunes Library.itl in the iTunes folder on the external drive. If this is the way you moved the library before then that is how you should now reconnect to it. Changing the media folder in preferences doesn't change which .itl database file is opened, nor does double-clicking on an .itl file directly.
    If you no longer have the original .itl file then you will have to build a new library and import the media to it. If you need to do this I would recommend you create a new library at F:\iTunes, then move your existing media folders inside F:\iTunes\iTunes Media before importing. This will avoid the creation of duplicates and make sure the library is in the correct shape going forwards.
    If you have an iPod or iOS device my scripts ImportDevicePlaylists and SyncStats may well let you recover ratings, play counts & playlists from the device.
    When you've fixed up your libray you should consider getting a second external drive to backup to.

  • How do I get the music from my ipod onto Itunes?

    I have had my ipod nano for a loooooong time and in a turn of events, most of the music on it isn't on my Itunes account. How do I transfer it safely? 

    If you don't purchase the music from iTunes, you need an ipod to computer transfer program to help.I personally use this iPod to Computer Transfer software.It helps me to transfer my Music, Movie, Photo, ePub, PDF, Audiobook, Voice Memo, Camera Roll, Podcast and TV Show etc from ipod to my computer directly and safely.It works well for me,you can give it a try.
    It even has step-by-step guide on the whole process.
    Hope it helps.

    Download it in iTunes from your purchased list, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.
    If the music is on your phone, another option is to authorize your computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music (in iTunes, Store>Authorize This Computer), then connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.

    Click on transfer purchases only works for purchased apps and music, but NOT the music rip from CDs or other sources.
    For transferring music other than those purchased from iTunes, refer to the following:

    My computer crashed and I had to reinstall windows 7, how can I get the playlist on my iphone onto itunes?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. 
    If for some reason you have failed to do this, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchass from the ipod. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
