How do i import my ipad files to a new computer itunes

I have had to reformat my hard drive on my PC.
I reloaded ITunes, and tried to sync my Ipad music, but because there was nothing in my ITunes library, I now have nothing on my Ipad!
Luckilly I have an Iphone with the same music etc on it, but I would like to know how to import all my items, both IPad and Phone, back into Itunes again.
I am sue there is an easy way of doing it without having to buy overpriced software??
Thanks you.

I can now answer my own question on this!
I downloaded a free program called SharePod, which did everything I wanted it to very easily.
Excellent piece of software!

Place the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. If there's no iWeb folder create one and put it in there. Now try to launch iWeb and see if it will find and open the Domain file.
If you still can't open the domain file do the following:
To open your domain file in Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script"/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"
delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.
NOTE: Since Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
For Mavericks and Yosemite go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:

How to export all the site files to the new computer

I'll be buying a new computer soon and need to export all the
site files (usernames and passwords) to that. I know how to export
individual site information, but the passwords are encrypted. Also,
is there way to save all sites at once and then just transfer that
to the new machine?

How do you import your music library to a new computer?

I have an iPod Nano (2nd gen). I have a mixture of purchased songs from iTunes, but also many personal tunes from my CD's. I have just bought a new computer. I was shocked to learn there is no easy way to move my existing library and playlists. How do I import my entire music library to the new computer. I have a large capacity flash drive.

If you network your two computers together, you can transfer the song files directly, without having to use a flash drive in between. You may also want to consider getting a backup drive. You can get lots of space for not so much money these days, and with an automatic backup system, it can really save your bacon if your computer goes down, which is an additional benefit to just transferring files from one computer to another.

How do I transfer my iWeb files to a new computer?

I recently did a clean install of Yosemite to my new iMac, getting rid of years of unneeded files.
I have successfully reinstalled all the programs I use frequently, but I am stumped on how to transfer my iWeb files so they work on my new computer.
I have transferred the preferences and the domain files, but they still do not show up when I open iWeb.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
And......how I wish Apple would bring iWeb back. It is the best app for making websites I have ever used.

Place the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. If there's no iWeb folder create one and put it in there. Now try to launch iWeb and see if it will find and open the Domain file.
If you still can't open the domain file do the following:
To open your domain file in Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor.

You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.

When moving my iphone from one computer to another, the apps do not follow and if I purchase an app on the new computer, it seems that all previous apps on the iphone will be lost How do I import the previous apps to the new computer?

When moving my iphone from one itunes computer to another, the apps installed on the original computer do not show on the new one. How do I get those apps to be recognized on the new computer without deleting them all from my iphone as it asks.

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

The user data is stored in the profile folder. You can copy the data manually by copying the contents of the profile folder, for details see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup Profile backup - MozillaZine Knowledge Base] or [[Backing up your information]].

how do I import my video files from old iPhoto - in time machine - to new iPhoto? Photoes came across, video said incompatible.
i have moved from a mac pro to a mac mini,
Mini now has mavericks and latest iLife stuff, I clicked import, was all good, then at end, no videos came across.
Is Mavericks,/iPhoto having a compatibiltiy issue with some video formats....???
Your help is appreciated gang.: )

Please describe exactly what you did. In moving to a new machine no importing is involved. The best way is to simply connect the two computers together and drag the iPhoto library from the old one to the pictures folder go the new one and launch iPhoto

Hi,
How can I import a .swf file in Adobe Flash CS4?
Thanks.

you can use file/import but that would be a mistake.
you should "load" your swf, not import it.
