How do I move my iTunes Library to another laptop?

How do I move my iTunes Library from my daughter's laptop to mine?  I was told if I plug my iPOD into my new laptop it will delete all my songs and I'll have to start over.  There has to be a way to move my Library from her laptop to mine...so I don't have to start over?

  • How do I move my iTunes library from my laptop to my desktop.

    I need to move my iTunes library to my desktop and somehow change the settings so I can sync my devices with my desktop library instead of my laptop.  Is there simple way to do this?

    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.

  • How do I move my iTunes library to another Nano 6th gen?

    I have a Nano 6th generation as does my wife.  My Nano broke.  My wife doesn't use hers.  So, I would like to synch my iTunes library to her Nano.  How can I do so?  i.e. I would like to "slick"her songs off hers and move my library onto it.
    Thanks

  • HT1420 The laptop that was authorized for my iTunes has died.  How can I move my iTunes library to another computer?

    I have LESS than 5 computers in my home and one of which has  died(hard drive unrecoverable) how can I deauthorize the laptop that has died?
    This URL http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420 only describes how to deauthorize working computers.

    I don't think you can. Well not at least until you have 5 computers authorized. When you have 5 computers authorized there should be an option to "unauthorize all" in your account settings.
    If you get to 5 computers authorized and you need a 6th, do this and then re-authorize the others you need.
    It would be handy if you could just pick a machine to unauthorize in iTunes.

  • How do I move my iTunes library to another computer?

    I'm sure there's a tutorial about this but I couldn't find one.
    Basically I just would like everything I have on this computer on another one, but I'm not so sure about authorizing/deauthorizing computers, moving all the files, and if possible I'd like to keep the play counts of my songs as they are now.

    Hi Guys, you make this sound easy. I have a 2005 Toshiba with about 6GB of music I loaded from CDs on it. It is an old PC and I want to retrieve the music before it crashes then deauthorize it.
    I have a iMac desktop and want to import the 6GB to it.
    I read the above and tried to copy the file but at 6GB it is bigger than a memory stick or CD and I can't get sharing to work.
    My Imac can see the Toshiba in the IMPORT window....but won't allow me to import it.
    Would it work if I got a cable with USB on each end and joined the 2 computers?
    I also have iTunes Sharing and can see and play the Toshiba files on the Mac WHILE they are connected.......BUT I want to cut the connection and have the Toshiba songs independant on the Mac, then close down the PC.
    Does anyone have a simple way. It is APPLE! I must be missing a simple solution here somewhere.
    Thank you for your time.

  • How can I move my iTunes library from one Mac to another?

    I recently purchased a new 13" MacBook Air to replace my older 17" MacBook Pro. 
    How can I move my iTunes library to my new MBA? 
    I also plan on purchasing a new iPhone in the next month or so.  Can I move my songs from my iPod to that too?

    Easy. Copy it from the old Mac to the new one.
    There are a variety of techniques including Setup Assistant (as soon as you get your new MacBook Air, it will ask you if you want to transfer information from another computer), Migration Assistant (if you elect to transfer information later), enabling file sharing between the two computers, or copying your music to a flash drive or other storage device followed by importing it to iTunes.

    Once your music library and everything else you want to transfer from the MacBook Pro resides on the new MBA, sync your iPod to the MBA. Sync the iPhone too when you get it, and they will both have identical iTunes music libraries.

    Hi FWFFP,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The article below will explain how to get music onto your new computer.  I'd personally recommend the option of copying the iTunes library from your current computer to an external drive, because it creates a backup for you as well:

    I now have a HP with Windows 8 and need to move my itunes library from my Lenovo..

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Connect an external disk, go to My Music folder and copy iTunes folder to your external disk. Then, connect the external drive to your new computer, copy iTunes to My Music and open iTunes. If your library doesn't appear after opening the application, open iTunes holding Shift key and go to the folder with your library

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):
