How do I take the music off of my old iPhone and put it onto a library in my laptop if the music is not in my original iTunes library?

I got a new phone and I'm trying to take the music off of my iPhone 5c, put it into my iTunes default library and then put it onto my new phone. A lot of my music was put onto my phone via mass amounts of CDS and I dont want to put them back on my laptop. I have a Toshiba so that would take way too long. Since I wiped my computer clean awhile back I have nothing in my iTunes library at all. Someone help.

That is stealing. Your friend has no right/licence to give the songs to you. It violates copyright law.

How can I retrieve back up's from my old Iphone and download them onto my PC?

I have a couple old iphones with pictures saved on my icould but they are broken. How can I retrive my icould information and save it on my PC?

When you say that you have pictures saved on iCloud from those old phones, do you mean that you backed them up to iCloud at some point? Were the photos taken on the phones? Did you have Photo Stream? Is it the same iCloud account as your new phone?
Here's why I am asking - if they are on the same iCloud account and had Photo Stream, any chance you are still seeing the photos on Photo Stream on your new phone?
If you are certain that the last backups to iCloud that you did with those phones contain the photos you want, you could always take the radical step of restoring a phone to one of those backups, importing the photos, then restoring that phone to the other backup, and importing those photos....
Depends on how badly you want to get those photos....it would be a complicated process, and you would want to make sure that you had the device you were doing all of that on backed up as well, so you could ultimately restore it back to the way it was before you started messing around.....also, they would all need to be on the same iCloud account or you would have to then start messing around with the iCloud settings as well.
But just wanted to let you know that there would be a way to do it....just not a very quick and easy way.

I had dowloaded all of my itunes library to my iphone from my home computer/my computer crashed and all of the music that was on my itunes is only on my iphone now. How do I take that music from my iphone and put it onto my itunes on my new computer?

I had downloaded all of my itunes library to my iphone from my home computer, My home computer crashed and all my itunes library was lost but it is still on my iphone. Is there a way that I can take all the music on my iphone that is all of my music from my itunes from my old computer and download it to my new computer that I have another itunes on? I tried to sync the music on my iphone to my itunes and I could not figure out a way to sync the music without erasing all of the music on my iphone. Does anyone have any suggestions?

For music that you've purchased from Apple that are on your iPhone you should be able to copy to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. Also if you are in the US then you should be able to re-download past music purchases for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
For your own music that you've copied, then if you haven't got a backup on, for example, external drives or CDs/DVDs then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work

How can I take 3 devices off of my email account and give them their own account. We are sharing storage and need to each have our own account.

Everyone in my family has an iPhone or iPad and they are all on one email account. How do I take them off and give them their own accounts so I can have my storage back?

Have them delete the iCloud account (your email address) on their devices then let them create their own iCloud account -> http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4436. If all of you are syncing contacts and calendars on the same iCloud account, they have to re-organise those stuffs once they have their own iCloud account. When you delete an iCloud account, it normally asks what would you do for the synced information - keep it on the iOS device or delete. If they choose to keep the synced information (e.g. Contacts and Calendars), they have to delete those thare aren't theirs or they can start from scratch by deleting the synced information from the iOS device. Hope this helps. Cheers!

How do I take my name off my sons Game Center and add his

How do I take my moms name off my Game Center profile

They really changed game center between iOS 6 and iOS 7, with it they moved some of the options of game center. Instead of changing your nickname in the app. You have to go to settings and scroll down till you see game center. There you have to sign in before you can change the name. I was just trying to do this and just figured it out. lol

How to turn off home sharing on iphone and put all of my music in one place?

I have the iphone 4 with ios7. I have Rihanna's Unapologetic cd that I ripped to itunes a while ago. Today I synced my entire music library to my iphone. The only way I can find the album by Rihanna is if I go to the home sharing on my iphone and choose my computer library! I'm getting really frustrated because I don't understand why I can't just have all my music in the music library and nowhere else? Also, all of my music appears to be on the cloud which doesn't make sense to me. Especially because I synced it all from my computer so why do I have to download to my phone again? Basically itunes is doing too much. Oh, and every time I sync my music itunes always deletes my playlists from my phone.

Consolidate your iTunes Library
As for the other part of the question, iTunes syncs with Apple devices.
Simply copy the media desired from the computer to the microSD card. This has nothing to do with iTunes.

How do I pull music from an old iphone and put on my new hp laptop and transfer to my iphone 4?

Some of the information below has subsequently been summarized by turingtest2 in the post at https://discussions.apple.com/message/18842615
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):

Is there any way to take backed up files from an old OS and get them onto a new phone? They are backed up as txt files.

I have a six year old lap top with an old OS and itunes 10. I backed up my i phone 4 on it. I got an I phone 5 and the version of Itunes compatible is not supported by the laptop. I installed itunes on a different computer and when trying to sync the iphone 4 to the desktop, updated the iphone 4 software. Now my iphone 4 is no longer compatible with my laptop. I am interested in getting my contacts and photos from my old laptop to either iphone at this point. I have the backed up files but they are txt files in the Mobile Sync Back ups. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Generally when moving from one phone to another, individuals will make a backup of the one device and then restore to the second device. However, it seems you are no longer using the computer you made the backup on, so that can be a problem. There is no way for you to take information out of the backup and insert it in the iPhone. It is an all or none proposition. But, just moving the backup folder from one computer to another doesn't work either.
Did you sync the contacts to a supported application on the computer? Also, if you are referring to the photos in the camera roll, you can import them to the computer by connecting the phone to the computer. You do not need iTunes to do that. Just plug in and let the computer photo import utility take the pictures and put them on the computer. Then you would sync the photos back to the photo library on the new phone,
Contacts you can look at a 3rd party app that might help. MCBackup is in the app store and converts your contacts to a file you can email to yourself and then click on it and open it. Suggest syncing contacts/calendar to a supported application on the computer, or to iCloud so you can recover a lot easier.

How can i export my contacts numbers from my old iphone and import it to my new iphone?

I want change my iphone,but i dont want to lose my numbers and datas!

If Contacts are the only thing you care about, you can turn on iCloud on the old phone following the setup instructions in http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ and insure that you turn on Contacts in the list of items to be synced.
You can verify that the contacts are uploaded to iCloud by then logging in to https://www.icloud.com
On your new phone, when you setup iCloud and turn on Contacts, as you did on the old phone following the instructions above, the contacts will automatically sync to the new phone.
If you want to transfer more than just contacts, the following has instructions on how to backup the old phone and restore to the new one (either using iCloud or iTunes): http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109

How do I get my contacts off of my old BB and onto my new iPhone?

Alright I have a new iPhone finally.
I have an old BB curve that has all my contacts.
These contacts are not saved to the sim card.
I was told you can do something with outlook or something else that will take all of my contacts names, numbers emails etc out of my BB and allow me to then upload them into my iPhone?
Can someone walk me through the process of this exactly?
Thanks.

You need to install the BB Desktop Software or Manager, which should be included with a CD provided with your BB purchase.
1. Connect your BlackBerry device to your computer.
2. Open the BlackBerry Desktop Manager.
3. Double-click Synchronize.
4. On the Configuration tab, click Configure synch.
5. Select the Address Book check box.
6. Click Configure > Advanced Settings.
7. Select Outlook as the sync partner.
With Windows XP, the iPhone supports syncing contact info and calendar events with Outlook 2003 or 2007, or the address book used by Outlook Express for contact info, which I believe is called Windows Contacts.
You select a compatible contact management application under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

I was wondering how to access my account. I broke my old iphone and i need to get access to my old apps and pictures and songs through the web..

How to access existing itunes account.

What do you mean "through the web"?
You can re-download purchased media and apps using iTunes on your computer. You can't, of course, run the apps on your computer, but you can download them and sync them to another iOS device.

How do i get my bookmarks off of an old harddrive and transfer them to another harddrive?

the mother board died on my old desktop - but, the hard drive is still operable. I got a new desktop and a friend added the old hard drive from my old computer (that has all of my firefox bookmarks somewhere) to my new computer. I now have two hard drives on a computer - the one that came with the new computer - and my old one - so, i am now able to move all my pictures and files, etc - and even found the Internet Explorer bookmarks - but, i cannot seem to find the firefox bookmarks. I look under Program Files - and I see Mozilla Firefox there - but, do not see the bookmarks. I searched for it - tried the answers that the mozilla website says to do - but, I cannot find them. can anyone help?? thanks

Bookmarks aren't stored in the Program Files folder but rather in their own "hidden" Profile Folder.
This link will show you where Firefox holds all of your information and what files to transfer over
*https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data
To get to your Profile Folder, while in Firefox, click the new menu button on the far right side of the Navigational Toolbar, click Help then click Troubleshooting Information. Under the Applications Basic section, click Show Folder. The window that opens will be your Profile folder.
Seeing as you want your Bookmarks, you should grab <b>places.sqlite</b> then put them into the Profile Folder in your new hard drive with Firefox closed

What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization. With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options. If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast. I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why? How is this making it a better program? I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was). But to not give users the option to delete that list? It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating. I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature. It smacks of rank incompetence.
What improvement were they trying to make here anyway? There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions. Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
And reverting to a previous version is no solution. I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.

How do I take the music off of my old iPhone and put it onto a library in my laptop if the music is not in my original iTunes library?
