How do I transfer music from iPhone 4S to iTunes on new computer?

My computer crashed and I had to reinstall iTunes, when that happened, I lost all my music that was stored on my computer. It is still available on my phone. How do I transfer the music from my iPhone to the newly installed iTunes? Please give step by step instructions, I don't want to risk losing my music completely. THANKS!

You cannot do that.  All you can transfer is the music you purchased in iTunes.  To do that, plug your iPhone into iTunes, and choose File > Device > Transfer Purchases from the iTunes menu.
The rest of your music will have to come either from your old computer's backup or the original sources (e.g., CDs) that were used to supply iTunes on the old machine.

  • How do I transfer music from my ipod touch to a new computer?

    Okay, so I threw out my old computer because it had a virus and it cannot be repaired. All my music was stored in it but I have it all in my ipod touch. I just got a new computer and I downloaded the itunes library but I don't know how to transfer my music from my ipod touch into a new computer. Has this happened to anybody before, if so, please share some ideas. This will help me a lot since I haven't added any songs into my ipod for almost a month now!!! =(

  • How  do i transfer music from old ipod to itunes for new ipod

    Im not sure how I am suppose to take the 200 songs that i dont have on my itunes that is on my old ipod, and how Im suppose to transfer this music onto my itunes to get it on to my new ipod??? oh and clicking on the enable disc use isnt working so please and suggestions would be great

    Hi Jperto99
    You need to Either get 3rd party software or do it this way
    You need to be able to view hidden files on your computer , you need to go to the control panel and find folder options. (i believe that you could change the settings on in the windows explorer by clicking view at the top menu bar. you need to click it so that you can see the hidden files. (i think this explains simply what i said Tools -> Folder Options -> View, and then check (enable) the option “Show hidden files and folders.”)
    Next find your ipod now if you have enabled hidden files you need to click on your ipod and find a folder called ipod control. the folder itself will look different maybe a bit transparent because it is hidden. Next you will go in and if you explore further you will see loads of files (transparent like ipod control) with things like F34 F01 (or F1) etc.
    They are the files with your music on it and if you click on them, they will show music files but they wont have names. they are encrypted with file names like AKLY (basically four letters or 3 letters put together in capitals) so to get the names and other suff back simply drag the music files into itunes or import them individually (the folders) into itunes by clicking file, import into itunes and by folder.
    Then once you have done this the names should be correct in Itunes.
    Alternitavely you can drag all the files in 'ipod control' into an external Hard Drive if you go into itunes prefrences you can let itunes put all your music on your computer into organized files of album names.
    Hope that Helped (if you don't understand what i said this guide is pretty good http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/copying-music-from-ipod-to-co mputer/P0)
    Also if your willing to spend money by doing all of this in one click then this program for £14 (not sure in $) is really good. the free version (does 5 songs at a time) but the great thing is, is that it transfers directly to itunes you can get it here http://www.findleydesigns.com/
    You can get other free 3rd party software ill try and find a list for you if you want

    You can recover any purchased songs that are on iPhones using the procedure here.
    If this is not available, you can ask Apple to allow you to download your music again. Note that, first, they DO NOT HAVE TO DO THIS. Purchase of music from the iTunes store entitles you to one download of that item. Second, note that if Apple does allow you to download a second time, they have to pay royalties on each download, whether you pay for it or not. Last, if they allow it, please back up your purchases.
    To request a redownload, contact iTunes support from the menus in iTunes or use this page.
    Best of luck.

    any itunes purchased music can be transferred from phone to pc via hitting the "transfer purchases" option when u right click on the phone under devices in itunes on the computer when it is plugged in. any non-itunes purchased music is stuck on the phone and cannot be transferred to the computer. u will have to load it onto the computer from the original source or from the old computer.

    You'll need third party software to do this.  The problem is that Apple works very hard to plug this capability.  I used to use freeware called PodShare, but that stopped working years ago.
    AFAIK, there are no free ones left, and I don't have personal experience with any of the current products.  I hear people say good things about PhoneView, which is $29.  If you google, there are a bunch of others in the $19-$29 price range.
    Even if you buy one, be sure to get your music off and back it up, because there's a good chance it'll stop working with the next iOS release.

  • How can I transfer music from my old iPad to my new MacBook ?

    How can I transfer music from my old iPad to my new MacBook ?
    My old MacBook was stolen and now I have all my music still on my IPad but like to get it back in my ITunes as well, is this possible ?

    If the music was purchased from the iTunes Store, simply sign into your iTunes Store account on iTunes. From there, go to the main page of the store. Then, on the right, there should be a purchased button. Tap there, and walla! You can download all of your past purchases. If it wasn't from the iTunes Store, use a third party Mac app.
