    You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
    iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year.  It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you.  Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices.  See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

  • How do I sync my Ipod with a new Itunes after losing my old Itunes when my hard drive went out?

    I had my itunes on one of my few computers that I have. The hard drive on the computer that I had my itunes on went out and I had to replace it, losing my itunes and other things, but I cared more about the itunes then I did with anything else. Now when I try to download itunes and try to sync my ipod, it says that if I sync it, all music with be replaced, and I don't want that. How do I sync my ipod to that new itunes without losing all my songs?

  • How do I sync my iPad with a new iTunes library without erasing all the previously purchased apps & data on my iPad?

    I'm sure this is a common issue, and I've google-searched for solutions but I cannot find a straight forward answer anywhere. I really hope an expert here can help me out.
    I purchased an iPad last year and synced it with my iTunes library on my old PC laptop. Well, my PC laptop harddrive crashed last week and I cannot access anything on my laptop anymore. I did not make a back-up for my PC harddrive either. I know, next time I should make a back-up and I will. But that's irrelevant. The PC is gone now.
    I replaced my PC this week with a brand new Mac Book Pro. Excited about my new purchase, I quickly hooked up my iPad with the hopes of easily transferring and accessing my iPages, iNumbers, and other productivity iPad apps seamlessly to my new beautiful Mac Book Pro. But now I've run into the nightmarish dilemma of not being able to sync my beloved Ipad with my new MAC without getting the warning that basically says "your iPad is already synced with another iTunes Library. You may only sync to one iTunes Library at a time. You will lose all your data if you sync to this new computer."
    Can someone give me a straightfoward answer as to how I can sync my iPad with my new iTunes Library on my new Mac Book Pro without losing any of the apps that I previously purchased? I want to be able to access the apps I downloaded on my iPad on my Mac Book Pro.
    Thanks so much!!!!!!

    While it isn't as easy to just use a Mac iDevice as media storage as Android and Windows, you can add documents and such like Word, PDF and others manually in iTunes to have them sync as well.

  • How do I sync my old ipod to my "new" iTunes library without losing the music I already have loaded onto my iPod?

    Hi, so I got my new computer loaded up with iTunes and I want to be able to move my music from my old iPod to my new iTunes library without losing any of the music I already have placed on the iPod. How would I do this? And please I'm not too savvy with the new iTunes layout and such so if you could make this easy in layman's terms that would be great.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you purchased all songs in the iTunes Store, plug your iPod to your Mac or PC and iTunes will ask you to transfer purchases.
    If you didn't purchase any song or you have non-purchased songs from the iTunes Store, you have to use an application to transfer the songs to iTunes. Here is a list of applications you can use for that > https://discussions.apple.com/message/11319208#11319208

  • When I sync my ipod with the new itunes, will my apps on my ipod disappear?

    The original itunes I was using is no longer available because the computer it was on is now broken so I ended up creating a new itunes on the laptop but I haven't updated my ipod because I was afraid that all my apps on my ipod would disappear..if I had free apps I would be fine but I have some apps that I paid for so I don't want to update just yet. So when I sync my ipod with the new itunes, will my apps on my ipod disappear?

    oohitsnicolee,
    I just want to summarise a little here so that other can be sure what is expected when comes to this issue....
    1. To transfer your purchases from iPod, iPad or iPhone, 1st U have to connect your iPod for this instance to your PC. Once connected, you should see your iPod name appeared on the left column in iTune. Do a right click on your iPod to Transfer your purchase to this NEW iTune. Since is a new iTune, all your Apps from your iPod will be transfer to here...
    2. Once transfer is completed, you should see all Apps in iTune now. Before you syn, you may choose what you want to syn to your iPod by checking the box next to the Apps. So eventually those that are not check will remain in your iTune together with those you have syn. Since they are purchased Apps ( Free/Paid ) it will remain in your account unless you choose to delete them via iTune.

  • I am unable to sync my iPad with my new MacBook Air without losing all photos even though both are linked to the same iTunes account

    I am unable to sync my iPad with my new MacBook Air without losing all photos even though both are linked to the same iTunes account

    Transferring photos from your computer has nothing to do with your iTunes account/Apple ID.
    Photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring photos from another, all photos on the iPad that were transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPad first - even if the photos were transferred from the old or different computer to the new computer being used for syncing.
    When transferring photos from your computer, what is named the iPod Photo Cache is created on your computer for the photos that are transferred and why you see new photos being transferres are optimized before the actual transfer process. The iPod Photo Cache for these photos on the computer the photos were transferred from is not available on your new computer.
    Since all photos on your iPad that were transferred from the old or different computer should remain on that computer, transfer the photos from that computer to your new computer. These photos on your iPad will be erased with the first sync but will be re-transferred along with a new iPod Photo Cache for these photos being created on your new computer.

  • How can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?

    how can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?

    Is the new iTunes library on a different computer, or the same computer?
    Are you concerned about photos that you have taken with the iPhone in the Camera Roll, or photos you have synced to the iPhone from your computer?
    Contacts should be configured to sync with an app on your computer. You set this up in iTunes on the Info tab with the iPhone connected. You will not lose any contacts if the app on your computer has at least one contact.

  • How do I sync my iPod to a new iTunes library on a new computer?

    Here's what's going on:
    I had to get a new laptop. I was able to backup my library to iTunes because I had recently bought a program called CopyTrans that lets you back up your entire iPod to iTunes. So everything that is on my iPod is now in my library, playlists and all.
    However, iTunes will not let me sync my iPod. In order to sync my iPod, I have to got to each section and check that box that says "Sync Music", "Sync Podcasts", etc. But then a message pops up saying that in order to sync these things, it will remove everything from my iPod and sync from my iPod.
    I guess what I'm asking is, can I trust this? I mean, since I was able to copy what's exactly on my iPod onto my library? I just don't like the idea of having iTunes remove everything from my iPod. It sounds sketchy. Also, does anyone know if by doing this will play counts and playlists be affected? Half of my playlists are based on play counts, and I don't want my play counts to reset.
    OR if anyone could suggest a way around it, and tell me how to sync my iPod without removing all of my stuff, that would be great too!

    If your computer has all the same songs and playlists on it that you have on the iPod connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Erase and Sync". This will erase your iPod and reload it from your new library, once the process is complete your iPod will be in sync and associated with the new iTunes.

  • Help! How can i sync my ipod with a new computer?

    how do i sync my ipod touch with a new computer?  the old computer it was synced with is completely broken.  I don't want to loose any songs, especially the ones I didn't buy on itunes.

    For music obtained from other than the iTunes Music Store, you need to browse the app store and purchase an app intended for that very purpose.  I'm unable to recommend one because I've never had reason to use such an app.  DO THIS FIRST!
    For songs purchased from iTunes, simply do a sync to the new computer.  A box will appear asking if you wish to transfer purchases.  If, for whatever reason, that fails, this is "Plan B."
