How do I transfer songs from my iPad to my iTunes library?

How can I transfer songs from my iPad to my iTunes account? I want to update my iPads but I don't want to lose all the songs that aren't in my iTunes account yet.

Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and you should be able to copy iTunes purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11). If any of the music wasn't purchased from iTunes and you don't have it on your computer nor on a backup then you will need to find a third-party program which copy them over - there are some listed half-way down this page.
You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
You can then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button

How do I sync music from my iPad into my iTunes library?

So I just got a new Mac, and just recently I decided to use iTunes to download new music into my iPhone and iPad. This Mac has no music in iTunes, and just now I changed my iphone option from sync automatically to "manually manage music and videos." With this, I had to erase all my music off of my iPhone. I still have all my music in my iPad downloaded from a different laptop, so how do I sync that music into my iTunes library to later put into my iPhone?

You need to transfer the music into iTunes first. If the music was purchased from iTunes, you can just download it again for free as long as you use the same ID that you bought it with.
You also need to make this make your syncing Mac. This user tip describes how you can accomplish this. Read it completely before you do anything.

How do you transfer apps from an iPad to iPad2

how do you transfer apps from iPad to iPad2

If you just want to install the apps then you can either sync them from your computer's iTunes or re-download them directly on the iPad 2 : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
If you want to sync the apps and their content from the frist gen iPad then you can backup the iPad 1, and then restore the iPad 2 from that backup (a list of what is included in a backup is in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4079 - it excludes music, videos, synced photos). As the backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their settings and content, for the restore to work completely you'll need all the relevant apps in your computer's iTunes library - otherwise the restore won't be able to install the apps and therefore their content (if you don't have the apps on your computer then you can re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)

How can i put songs from my ipod into my itunes library?

I want to sort out all mu music on my ipod and start fresh, but i want to keep all my music. Is there a way of putting music from my ipod into my iTunes library? I understand that if there is music on my ipod then i mustve put it on there from the library but i dont think i did! It's just not there! all i need to do is transfer it from my ipod to my itunes library Pls help. Ta.

iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod, iPad, or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
With your iPod connected, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPod.
If you had Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPod sync preferences with iTunes, after downloading a song from the iTunes store direct with your iPod, the song would be copied to your iTunes library automatically the first time you sync your iPod with iTunes after doing so.
Manually managing music and videos is manual all the way.

How can i get all my music from my ipad into my itunes library so that i can download it to other ios devices?

I have an iPad that is loaded with music that I actually burned the cd's into iTunes on a computer at work a couple of years ago. I switched jobs some time ago so I no longer have access to that computer. Is there anyway to get that music into my iTunes library on my home computer so that I can download it onto my new iPad or other iOS devices? Computer stuff is NOT my forte.

The Mac OS X version of iTunes can't handle WMA files. Use a product such as Switch to convert them.
No Mac software can play or import WMA files which contain DRM.

How do I transfer apps from one ipad to another

Let me start off by saying that itunes confuses the crap out of me. I am a moderately saavy tech person and even spent a morning watching youtube tutorials a while back and still I can barely figure what to do in itunes. I get by.
So, my son had an ipad and we have bought an app through the app store that was around 30$. It was an educational thing, so an important one. Got him a new ipad yesterday and now I need that old app to be transferred onto the new ipad. Called the app company who said I needed to do it through itunes. So I hooked up the old ipad to my computer, it opens up itunes and asks if I want to update. I figure yes. Start the update. Says it will take 6 hours. Cancel the update. I click on the ipad icon in the top left and see at the bottom of the next screen, a sync option. I figure, ok, I need to sync this so that the app is now on my computer so I can then transfer it to the new ipad, right? I sync. I unplug the old and plug in the new ipad. I sync again, thinking, ok, now it should be there, right? Nope. I check the app list....it's not there. 5 dozen other stupid kid apps making food and hairstyles...no educational app. I plug the old one back in...this is useless. I can't figure out how to see the educational app on the old ipad through my computer....
What the heck am I doing wrong!?!

Syncing copies content from your computer's iTunes to the device.
If the app is still in the store then you should be able to redownload it directly on the new iPad via the Purchased tab in its App Store app.
Or, to copy the app from the old iPad (and other any other download that's only on the iPad) connect it to your computer's iTunes and use the File > Devices >Transfer Purchases menu option to copy it over :
To sync it to the new iPad, connect it and select it in iTunes, and select its Apps tab e.g. (if using the current version of iTunes)
On the right-hand side of the screen find that app in the listbox of apps and click the 'Install' button next to it, and then click the apply/sync button bottom right to install it onto the iPad.

HT2518 how do i transfer Apps from my iPad to my new Macbook pro

I am trying to sell my old iPad for a new one with more space, and i have also recently purchased a macbook. What i want to know is how to seamlessly transfer all my APPS, and other files. I have game apps, stoarge apps like skydrive, evereader pro, and other Productivity apps such as iWriter where i have a lot of write-ups in it. With iWriter App, worse case scenarios is that i'll painstakingly copy and paste all that i have written in it; however, this isn't achievable with files I have stored in various folders on my other storage apps i downloaded from the apple store.
in short, i'd like some help with wiping my ipad clean without losing all that i currently have in it

Thanks for your reply. I will try your suggestion regarding backing up old device. As for the apps i downloaded, i have no issues downloading them again but what about the ones i had purchased? that's the first question. Secondly, like i mentioned in my original question, a few of the apps i downloaded already have in them files i have copied in (e.g. evereader pro) and some of them like the iWriter and e-Bibles which have write-ups and annotations/highlights respectively. I would like to know how to (if it's possible, that is) copy those apps into my new device without losing my writings, annotations, saved files etc

HT201269 How can I transfer apps from my iPad to an iPhone?

Can notes from your iPad transfer to an iPhone?

You use the same Apple id with both devices. You go to the iTunes store and the purchased tab and download what you want. Although some apps are iPad only so they may not install on the iPhone.
that's app, notes? if you enable iCloud syncing on both devices then your notes will sync too.

How to move apps from an iPad to the iTunes Library?

Each time I attempt to upgrade the OS on an iPad I always get a notice that there are purchased items on the iPad that have not been transferred to the iTunes library. You should transfer these items to your iTunes library before updating this iPad.
Exactly how is this done?

When you connect your iPad for the first time, it'll normally ask you if you want to transfer your purchase to iTunes (tap to enlarge image)

How can i transfer music from my iphone 4 to itunes library?

A while ago, my computer crashed and wiped out everything. I had to install Itunes. I've had my iPhone 4 for a year, and have many pictures and music on it.
I still haven't updated my phone to version 5.1, and i would like to.. but my computer is saying that i should transfer all my apps, music, etc, so i don't lose it, but i do not know how to do that. HELP!

See https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141. You will read in this article that music on your phone not purchased from iTunes cannot be synced to your iTunes library. To transfer this music you will have to use 3rd party software such as Touch Copy (or re-rip you CDs with iTunes to import them).

How do I transfer music from my iPod to my iTunes library?

I have a new laptop that I just downloaded iTunes on. I plugged in my iPod but can't sync it without deleting everything.
When I first got my iPod I never made an iTunes account because I just used tons of CDs to make my library.
Now I have an iTunes account but I don't know how to transfer my music to the library without just starting over and relying on lots of CDs I don't want to dig up.
Any help?? Thank you!

If you still have the computer with your original library these are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.
As above there are free tools out there...
