How do i get my music library from cloud to my mac
How do i transfer my libary in the cloud to my Mac
Your music is not really stored in iCloud. icloud reads your iTunes account and makes music you have purchased available on your device(s). On your device tap Music>Store (top left)>Purchased (bottom 2nd from right) tap on Music it will give you a list of purchased items. At the top it will let you choose ‘All’ or ‘Not on this iPhone’ tap on the latter and tap on an album and it will display the tunes you have purchased with an icon on the right to download the item from the cloud. It is then on your device.
Coming soon is iTunes Match which will provide the same service for ALL of your iTunes Library at a cost of $24.95 a year. Check it out at: http://www.apple.com/itunes/whats-new/

How do I get my music library from icloud to my computer so I can synch to my new iPod?
How do I get my music library from icloud to my computer so I can synch to my new iPod? I can't seem to find help support to answer this question.
Copy the media from the old computer to the new computer.
iDevices are not and have never been backup devices. -
How do I get my music library from my iPhone to my computer after my computer was wiped and upgraded to 10.6? My iTunes library now has no music and Im afraid if I sync my iPhone to the new music library it will wipe out my music on my iPhone to the library on my iBook which has no music.

my computer crashed and had to be restored to factory settings losing ituness collection of music. My ipad has my itunes library. how do i get the music collection from the ipad to the computer?
You should be able to copy iTunes purchases over to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. For music from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs) you will need a third-party program to copy them back from your iPad - there are some listed half-way down this page which should work : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

How do I get my itunes library from my old laptop to my new imac? My purchases are showing on the new imac but not my own music files.
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
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. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168 -

How do i get my Itunes library from my crashed hard drive to put on my new computer? The old computer had Windows Vista and the new computer has Windows 8.
It will only be where you put it.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod. File>Transfer Purchases. -

my computer broke down and now i bought a new Mac, how can i get my music back from iTunes??
Unless you subscribe to iTunes Match , Apple does not keep a backup of your iTunes library. Even then it is not the library as it exists on your computer, but some version of the media, and only media files, not playlists. Even then not all media are definitely available since anything removed from the iTunes Store since you purchased it is not available for re-download.

In your case it sounds like you will have to obtain non iTunes purchases from their original source or a backup you may have made at some time in the past. -
How can I access my music library from a laptop on the road, as if my PC is not active? I tunes is installed on both PC and Home Sharing is enabled on both devices.
The key constraint for Home Sharing in this context is that both PCs need to be on the same wifi network. So once you get out of range of the wifi network covering your home PC, the laptop is not going to be able to Home Share.
Have you considered importing your iTunes music to the laptop? Then you could listen to a local copy of the music on the laptop while you're on the road. (You can do the import via home sharing when both computers are on the same wifi network.) -
How do I get my iPhoto library from a ppc g5 to an intel iMac mid 2011
How do I get my Iphoto library from a ppc g5 to an intel imac mid 2011?
I recommend tha tyou do not use migration assistant - it has a poor record of moving the iPhoto library successfully
Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) or use an external hard drive formed Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

I had an iPhone 4 with all my music on it. Got rid of my desktop when I got an iPad. Now I have iPhone 4S. How do I get my music transferred from old phone to 4s and iPad without a desktop with iTunes on it?
Restore the device from the backup created.
If no backup exists, there is nothing to recover. -
