How do I put all of the music I have on my Ipad on to my notebook?

I have put all of my music from my PC onto my ipad and iphone... now that I have my Mac Pro I would like to put all of that music (most of which I did not get from iTunes) onto it.  Is there a way to simply connect and download from my ipad to my mac pro? or do I have to do it another way and if so how do I do it.  I'm not very tech savoy but I am a very quick learner. any help what  so ever would be great!!

Hi there papaJ1!
I have an article that can tell you a couple of different ways for you to move your iTunes library to your new computer:

  • How do I put all of the music by one artist into the same "folder"?

    When I put music onto my iPhone 4, it often shows up that the same artist will have many different entries in the phone's version of iTunes. E.g. Bob Dylan might have six different entries, with different albums (sometimes more than one) in each. This makes it difficult to put it on shuffle or just sort of listen to one artist all day without constantly fiddling with the phone.
    Is there a way to combine all of these separate headers and make them all fit in one "folder" (for lack of a better term)?

    Thanks! I discovered that my disconnect was that I was doing all of that, but AFTER I had already moved the untagged files onto my phone, which was set to manually synch music. I was trying to tag them on my pc and expecting the phone to catch that. Duh, of course it won't see changes made on the pc if it's set to manual! I went in and did it on the phone and it worked fine.
    Ty for the link!

  • How do I delete all of the music accidentally downloaded to the "Music" APP on my iphone? I wish to delete all of the music there or the Music app itslelf too

    I mistakenly downloaded most of my itunes library to my iphone during a "backup" and I do not want it on my  Music app. How do I undo that. Delete all of the Music in that Music APP.......and or better yet, how do I delete that app if possible. Either or Solution will be acceptable and appreciated.

    I had done that but the music was still in the App even though where you directed me, which I had already done thinking it would work, said no data. I finally found in itunes after re syncing to "On This iphone" on the top bar the "edit" command, then "slect all", then "delete". It re synced and all is gone. Guess there is a difference slightly from IOS 6 and 7 as that removed the data but not the music itself strangely enough. Thanks for responding.

  • How do i find all of the music i downloaded from my iphone after my iphone was stolen?

    I am now an Android user and I have just DL'd iTunes onto my Windows laptop. I need to find all of the music I paid for through iTunes. Currently it is downloading some music that was in the middle of the DL when the phone was stolen but that is all I see. I'm not terribly familiar with iTunes.

    I should also state that I never used iTunes outside of my iPhone. I didn't own a computer at that time and the phone was my only connection.

  • I want to transfer my entire itunes account to another computer. how can i get all of the music i put on my computer on a new computer?

    So my family had a computer that kept all of the songs and videos on it for itunes. how can i transfer all of that data to another computer and put that new computer as our home computer for the home itunes computer? please help me. i have been trying to figure this out for 2 months now.

    open itunes on the new computer and go to the itunes store
    make sure you are signed in with the apple id of whoever purchased all of music from the itunes store
    on the right hand side of the itunes store home page, under quick links click 'purchased'
    you will be able to download anything you have previously purchased for free
    let me know if that works for you.

  • How do I get all of the music on my computer to transfer to my Iphone?  For some reason, itunes has picked up some songs but not others.  example, I have several CD's loaded in which only 1 or 2 songs from the CD shows up in itunes.

    I have about 70 Cd's loaded on my computer as I had previously owned another MP3 device before I got enamored with the Ipad and Iphone. My problem is itunes will not recognize all of this music.  To give a specific example, I have an old Bon Jovi Cd "crossroads" , itunes only recognizes 2 songs off the Cd.  How can I get itunes to recognize these songs?  They do not show up on itunes anywhere but if i go to my music folder I can locate the songs and it even shows the itunes logo but, the songs will not play with itunes.  I've got a few hours of music i would like to have on my iphone. Can anyone please help me with this?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
    Use your backup copy to put everything on the computer, then sync.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone to your computer - File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

  • How do I take all of the music on my iPhone and import it to my Macbook Pro?

    I had an Asus laptop and that's where all my music was, now I'd like to get it all to my Macbook Pro I have everything I need on my iPhone so how can I get all of my iPhone music to my Macbook pro?

    Your best bet is to transfer it directly from the other computer (copy the entire iTunes folder from one to the other, put in same location), otherwise your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with 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 purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • How do I get all of the music from my ipod touch onto my itunes. Some of the music is from my brothers and friend's accounts as well and I want it all on my PC itunes.

    Help :)

    The music you acquired from your friends is not yours to keep. If you want that music, you should buy it. To do otherwise is commonly known as stealing.
    Although it's a grey area, if your brother lives in the same house as you, that music you can keep. If the music is on your brother's computer, use an external hadrd drive to copy the music to your computer, import it into iTunes and then put it on your iPod.
    For the musc that you have actually paid for, it should already be on your computer or in a back up copy that you have previously made. If not, then songs purchased from the iTunes Store can probably be downloaded again, just go to your account in the store. Other MP3 retailers usually let you re-download the music. For any CDs that you used, simply use the CD to copy them into your iTunes Library gain.

  • How can I get all of the music on itunes to sync?

    When I sync my ipod touch not all of the songs in itunes are transferred over.  I have about 30 more songs in itunes than on my ipod.  There are also a couple of songs that are sync but they will not play on the ipod but they will play in itunes.  Is there a way to fix this?

    I'd like to know this as well.  Mine just started doing this.   I didn't do anything any differently and I have rebooted my iPod.   It gets to the determining items to copy part and hangs there forever.  Photos and apps were copied, however, just not songs.

  • How can I put content on the AppleTV and have it STAY there??

    I want to put movies on the AppleTV and delete them from my computer. I want the movies to be persistently on the AppleTV How do I do that?

    Most important thing to realise is that AppleTV cannot be regarded as a storage or backup device - once content is on AppleTv you cannot get it back to your computer.
    Assuming you have a backup copy of a movie elsewhere in case your AppleTV fails or needs a factory restore you could either:
    - Show the files location using a right click on it in iTunes and delete it from the laptop drive directly but not delete the entry from iTunes. (Not ideal but apparently works)
    - Keep larger files on an external drive and change iTunes Preferences not to import to the main library - when the drive is connected you will be able to add new entries to iTunes and synce them. When disconnected iTunes won't delete them from AppleTV as again there's still an entry in the library, just that the file isn't available.
    These are workarounds - it's a shame you can't just drag and drop media to AppleTV manually rather than having to sync things.

  • HT1727 Hello,  I have a new computer as my other computer is not working.  How can I access all of the music that I have previously purchased?

    My song titles are all there but my new computer cannot access the song content. Is there a way to access my music?

    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer or the backup of the old computer to the new computer.  You do maintain a backup of your media and other important data, correct?

  • I just got a new mac laptop, and I want to put the music i have on my ipad on said laptop. Is there any easy way to do so?

  • How do I remove all of the photos that have been imported and start over. The photo did not import into folders by date

    When I imported the photos, I thought I had it set to import them into folders but it didn't happen. I have one file of 10000+ photos in the same folder. I would likede to start over, remove what has been imported (not delete) and start over importing them into folder that I choose rather than all in one.

    Okay - but after that..
    I followed the instruction in the tutorial and did the following:
    Click Import (Existing Files)
    Select source - (pictures appear in grid)
    include sub-folders if appropriate
    Select “add”
    File Handling - Changed build preview to standard
    Apply During Import - Nothing added
    Add keywords - Added keywords
    Import (Tutorial says to click “Import” but import is greyed out and not available)
    What am I missing? The destination information does not appear. I tried selecting that before I clicked "Import" but that didn't help..

  • How do I save all of the apps I bought on my iPad when I update to OS5

    I want to update my iPad to OS5.  When I try, it says that I will lose purchased items off my iPad.  How do I save these items--books, apps, etc.  iTunes only downloaded the books that were in iBooks

    If you connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes you should be able to copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases - that should copy apps, ibooks and iTunes media purchases. Other epub books or PDFs that are in the iBooks app should also copy over. eBooks that you have in other ebook apps should be backed up in the app's own store (e.g. Kindle books purchased from Amazon are on your Amazon account).
    Before starting the update you should also backup the device (right-click the iPad 'device' and select 'back up'), and copy off any important documents, files, notes etc (e.g. by email, the file sharing section at the bottom of the Apps tab in iTunes, wifi, whatever the apps that you use support) - the update process should backup and restore the content but it's best to be safe.
