  • I am trying to help my mother build her iTunes library.  I want to transfer files from my iTunes to hers.  I have tried HomeSharing, but the "Show/Import" menu buttons are nowhere to be seen on either of our computers.  We have PCs, not MacBooks.

    I want to import some of my iTunes files to my mother's iTunes account so she doesn't have to pay again to get them.  We are going on a trip soon, and she wanted some movies to watch on here iPad.  Some of the movies, I already have.  I can't seem to do anything.  Homesharing has been useless, because while her iTunes can 'see' my iTunes and vice versa, the magic "Show" and more importantly the magic "Import" buttons are nowhere to be seen. How in the **** am I supposed to share my files if I can't import them to her library for her?  I have seen many solutions for people using iTunes on a MacBook, but we don't have MacBooks in our house.  I have a Samsung laptop and Mom has a Gateway laptop, and both operate on Windows 7.  Seriously.  This should not be impossible, but right now, it seems that way.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Will iTunes allow me to do this? I'm not really all that familiar with Windows computers. I have recently had to move to a PC because my $3000 macBook Pro died one month after the warranty was up. How could I get iTunes to accept media from another computer?

  • How do I take music from my itunes on my iPhone 4s that I did not purchase and put them on my new computer without deleting anything

    How do I take music from my itunes on my iPhone 4s that i didnt purchase and transfer them to my new itunes without deleting anything. I do not have my old computer and do not want to delete all my music on my phone. I do have some music i did purchase and transfered it but that music i didnt purchase, i dont know how to transfer. HELP!!!!!!

    Music is designed to sync in one way only, and that is from iTunes to the phone. There is the expectation that you would backup the computer to save this data. There are 3rd party solutions to try and recover music from the phone to put back into a blank iTunes library.

    If you are trying to drag a song over, do you have Manually Manage Music checked in iTunes? You need to check your iTunes settings before trying to put music on it. It may be that you have it set to sync. Check the Summary page of iTunes after you have selected the iPhone in iTunes.

  • My ipod was connecting to my home wi-fi just fine until I uploaded new music from my Itunes on my laptop. Now my ipod and my iphone will not connect to my wireless network. I've tried resetting the network settings etc... Nothing seems to work. Help!

    My ipod (version 6.1.3) was connectiong to my home wi-fi just fine until I uploaded new music from my itunes via my laptop. Now my ipod and my iphone will not connect to my wireless network. I've uplugged my wireless network and reset my network settings etc... nothing seems to work. Please help!

    Does the iOS devices connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS devices see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Since both iPhone and iPod stopped connecting I suspect a problem with your network.

    I AM NO ABLE TO SYNC MY APPS FROM MY ITUNES TO MY IPHONE HO I CAN SYNC MUSIC

    Do you have music in iTunes?
    If you have, you do the same like syncing apps.
    iPhone connected and selected in iTunes, click the Music tab (at the top), check Sync Music and the songs you want on the iPhone. When satisfied, click Sync (bottom right)

  • HT1379 Summary: how to transfer files from SD card when the system (Mac OS X v 10.7.5) will NOT recognize SD cards.

    How to transfer files from SD card when the system (Mac OS X v 10.7.5) will NOT recognize SD cards?
    Insert the SD card.
    System opens iPhoto with SD contents.
    Want to transfer files from SD card to system drive.  iPhoto closes
    SD card directory removed from the Finder window and is not available again. 
    I don't want to have to reboot the system every time I want to perform this option.
    What's wrong here. 
    The support columns show this isn't an isolated incident with all sorts of solutions possible.
    This is a simple task - there should be a simple method for the system to recognize SD cards.
    What's the answer?
    I've reviewed a recommendation to reset the SMC.

    and

    and another thread that says, basically, you must buy extra hardware to perform this simple task,

    another one that has the same problem with OS Mountian Lion,
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/21919740#21919740
    another one with the problem that says SD cards can't be read by Apple unless the card is formatted specifically for Apple, ie. that Apple is not compatible with other cards, but the problem maybe something else that requires Apple service - (bad SD card reader?).
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18711818#18711818
    there are probably more discussions, but I dont' want to spend my entire sunny in Seattle day working this.
    thanks for the help!

    When I plug in an SD card, the finder window shows it under the DEVICES section.  At this point, I can drag the contents to the hard drive.  However, when I screw up and click the character on the right side of the name - it apparently closes the SD card and I can't find any command to reload or re-recognize the card.  I have to remove and reinsert the card and then sometimes it recognizes the card.  Other times I reboot and it will recognize it.
    What does that character on the right side of the SD card name do?  Is it an eject function - with no way to subsequently reread the drive?
    It ejects or unmounts the card. When the SD card mounts click on it once to highlight it and then drag the files shown within it to the new folder.

    I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentioned since they were purchased. Is there any way to get the ipad music transferred to the computer?

    And they were definitely purchased from the iTunes store, they show on the account's purchase history (Store > View Account on a computer's iTunes, or you can view the last 90 days purchases via http://reportaproblem.apple.com) ?
    You could potentially log into the account on that computer's iTunes (Store > Sign Out to log out of your account, that will then change to a Store > Sign In option) and redownload them by clicking on the id towards the top right of the iTunes screen and Purchased on the popup :
    But that will potentially tie that computer to that account for 90 days : Manage your associated devices in iTunes - Apple Support
    Or do you have a different computer that you could redownload them on and then copy them over to that computer via a flash drive or memory card, and then add them to its iTunes via File > Add To Library ?
