How do I transfer all my music, apps contacts etc for my iPad and iPhone to my new laptop from a desktop?

I can't update the software on my desktop because it's too old and no stores seem to have the "bridge" disc I need to upgrade my current system. So, I need to transfer my synch abilities for my iPad and iPhone from my desktop to my newer, more up-to-date laptop. What is the best way to do this? I have the apple base station also.

  • I am installing iCloud.  My last step is to update store preferences.  All selections (music, apps, books, etc.) are grey and cannot be ticked as suggested.  Any ideas?

    I'm assuming that Rosersberg is in Sweden (?). If it is then you are in a country where music can't currently be re-downloaded from the store, only apps and ibooks. If you still have your old computer with your music on it then you should be able to copy it over from it e.g. via file sharing, an external drive : copying content.

  • Transfer whole Library (music, apps, contacts etc)

    How do I transfer my entire itunes library (music, movies, books, apps, contacts, podcast and everything) to another pc? I also need to transfer the backup files for my iPhone4 and iPad2. I want to decommissioned my old pc and use my new pc for all future sync to all my iDevices.

    copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder) from the old to the exact same location on the new machine.
    you can use your LAN or an external HD for that.
    as for your backups, you will find the location in this support article:

  • I just got a new Mac but I don't know how to transfer all the music, apps, videos, etc from my iPod and old computer to my new Mac.

    I just got a new macbook air and I am trying to figure out how to get all of the music, videos, pictures, apps, etc. that I have on my ipod touch and on my old computer onto my mac. I don't want to lose anything. I just want to figure out how to sync my ipod to my new mac without losing any data.

    copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music folder) from <MacintoshHD>/users/yourname/music on the source to <MacintoshHD>/users/yourname/music on the target (overwriting the iTunes folder in place there).
    you can use an external HD or your network for this operation. everything will be as you were used to from the old machine.

  • My emails don't download on my iPhone once they have downloaded on my iPad. How do I get all my emails to download on both my iPad and iPhone?

    I Need my emails to down load on both my iPad and iPhone. They don't download on my iPhone

    since i have to go sleep i will try my best explaining you a detail regarding email settings in your email accounts.
    You will have to go on the web page of your respective email account via a computer. EX : Gmail if so..
    Once you logged in your account you want to go to settings. What you want to find is the option to select between IMAP or POP email settings.
    IMAP is what you want. Select IMAP to every email clients you have. OUTLOOK , HOTMAIL, YAHOO ...etc.
    IMAP is the way to go when it comes to using web email via multiple devices

    This is one of the most basic of functions of the iPhone.  This is a good time for you to read the User Guide.  All the instructions on how to operate yor phone are included.  I suggest you read through it.

  • Hi i just buy a macbook how can i transfer all my musics and apps from my iphone to my new itune?

    hi i just buy a macbook how can i transfer all my musics and apps from my iphone to my new itune?

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

  • I share an apple ID with my husband but want my own now as I have new iPhone. How do I retain all my music/apps etc?

    I have been sharing an apple ID with my husband for my iPad and iPhone however I now have a new iphone and have read that I should have my own ID. If I create one with my new phone, how I do transfer across all my contacts, music, apps etc from my previous phone/ID?

    You cannot download the same Apps that you have on your iPhone. They are two seperate stores.
    The store you have on your iPhone is the same for any iDevice (iPad, iPhone and iPod)
    The store on your MacBook is only for Macs.

  • TS4124 Hi, do you know how can I upload inelegible songs from itunes to Icloud. They are songs added from original CDs. Another question would be how can I transfer all the music I have in my Ipod Classic to my Itunes or ICloud as I want to back it up.

    Depends on why it's ineligible.  If it's under 96 Kpbs, try right-clicking on the file and choosing Create AAC Version.  (If you don't see this option, go to iTunes>Preferences, click "Import Settings..." then choose "Import Using: AAC Encoder" and "Setting: iTunes Plus".)  Then rescan your library to see if this version will add to iTunes Match.  Or, after changing your import setting, just re-import the song to your iTunes library.
    If the song is over 200 MB you would have to reduce it's size to make it eligible.

    In iTunes, File>Transfer Purchases.
    Anything not purchased from the iTunes store can not be transferred from the phone to a computer without purchasing 3rd party software to do so. It is not a backup device or data transfer device.
