When I use Home sharing, I can see the library I want to copy, but when I highlight the library, the import button does not show up. Also, it will not let me drop and drag. How do I get music from one computer to the other computer?

When I use Home Sharing, I can see the library I want to copy under Shared, but I can't get it save on the computer under the regular library. I go to edit and "select all" but there is no import button that is in the right hand corner. Also, it will not let me click and drag the music. How do I get it from one computer to the other?

Since both computers are connected via the network, you could simply copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from one computer to another via the network.
If both computers are running Windows, use the Easy File Transfer Utility built into Windows to move iTunes and all other user media/data.

Or, if you have a network established that both computers are on, you can transfer your "iTunes" folder from one computer to the other. That's what I just did, (from my PC to my new Mac), and it worked just fine. (I only lost the files that I haven't deauthorized on the PC yet.)

How do i get music from one computer to a different computer??????

i downloaded a lot of music and video's off of limewire and now can't get them to my other computer (my other computer has itunes) HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You could enalbe your iPod as a disk using iTunes. Also, I found a helpful program when my powerbook deleted all my music from my computer. If you have iTunes on the computer you downloaded the stuff on to, search google for Music Rescue, download it to the computer that you are transferring the music to and, with the iPod updated with everything you downloaded, us Music rescue to transfer it from the iPod to iTunes. If specified, the program will also rebuild playlists etc... but if they were smart playlists they will not be transferred as smart playlists. If the computer with iTunes is not on the internet, using your iPod as a disk, transfer the installer to the other computer and install it.

How do I transfer music from one computer to another??

I have 700 songs on an outdated laptop that I cannot update with Service Pack 2, thus it does not recognize my new ipod. However, I have iTunes 7.6 on my new desktop and want to get all that music over to that PC. Any idea how???

Probably the most straightforward way to get iTunes onto your second computer is to network it with the first one and copy your iTunes folder across. Start by consolidating your library. When you consolidate, any songs in the iTunes Library that are not in the iTunes Music Folder are copied to the Music Folder and the Library is updated to point to those new files. Files already in the iTunes Music Folder have no changes made to them: Copying all your iTunes files to one location - Windows
Copying the whole folder brings with it the iTunes Music folder and also the iTunes Library (iTunes Library.itl in Windows) database file which holds all the information about your songs (Playlists, Ratings, Play Counts, Last Played, Date Added, etc). You'll get more information including the Folder/File structure in this article: What are the iTunes library files?
When you copy the iTunes folder make sure you put it into the same location on the new computer. This has to be the exact same place, on a PC this is \Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\My Music\. Everything has to be exactly the same on the new computer including the Windows user account name. When you open iTunes on the new computer it will be the same as on the original one Songs, Playlists, Play Counts, Ratings etc. You should also use the same version of iTunes on both computers.
You can also use this method with an external hard drive, you drag the folder from the first computer to the external drive and then from the drive to the second computer.
Your iPod can also be used as an external drive and you can move the iTunes folder onto it: How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
If you have any iTunes purchases in your library don't forget that you'll need to authorise your new computer to play them. Also if you are disposing of the old one remember to deauthorise it so you don't use up one of your allowances: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation

In plain English - How can I get music from one computer to another?

Honestly guys, I havent a clue! I have purchased music from my work PC, but cant access it from my Home PC. I have read the manuals, but it dosent make sense to me! So, in ordinary, basic, plain English, how do I access it from home?!

If you are using iTunes 7 I think this section from the Apple article is pretty straightforward.
To transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod:
Connect your iPod to the computer on which you bought the items you want to transfer.
Copy the iTunes Store purchases to your iPod.
Disconnect your iPod (click the Eject button next to its icon) and then connect it to the computer you want to transfer the purchases to.
Choose File > Transfer Purchases From iPod.
You could also burn the song files to a data CD or DVD. Once you've burned the disc, take it to your other computer and import the songs into iTunes. Don't forget that regardless of which method you use, both computers have to be authorised to play the songs: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation
