You can authorize up to 5 computers with the same iTunes account with iTunes.
There is no device limit for the number of iPods, iPads, and iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library and iTunes account on the same computer.
The iPhone can be synced or manually managed with music and video with an iTunes library on a single computer only and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
To avoid this with a new computer, transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer along with all other important data that you will want or need to access on your new computer such as documents, photos, etc. For your iTunes library, follow the instructions included with this link.

How do I transfer music files from my laptop to my Ipod Touch?
The only way to get it fixed is to contact the carrier to whom the phone is locked. You will need to find out:
1) IF the carrier offers unlocking. Not all carriers do
2) IF the carrier indeed offers unlocking, what the requirements are. You might not fulfill them. -
How do i transfer music from my laptop that i purchase to my desktop?
Hi how do i transfer my music that i purchase from my laptop to my desktop?
Many answers depending upon your details. Just a few tracks, or a whole library?
A few tracks, look up Home Sharing.
A whole library:
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168
If you put it in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.) -

How to get my music on new laptop
do i just sinc my ipod?
You have to transfer your iTunes library from your old computer before you sync or your iPod will be erarsed.
On your old computer move the iTunes folder (located in My Music) to the My Music on the new computer. If an iTunes folder already exists there, replace it. Now when you open iTunes your library will show as it did on the old computer and you will nit get the prompt to erase your iPod when you sync.

How can I transfer music from my old iphone 4 to the new iphone 5S without having the music on the old phone synced to my laptop (e.g. my itunes library on the laptop is empty) ?
I tried the "Transfer Purchases" option - however this only worked for apps - not sure if I'm missing some sort of setting.
I do not want to use iCloud as I do not have enough space for my music.
Thanks!You cannot. The music must be in the iTunes library first. See these User Tips:

How do I transfer music off my iphone onto itunes on a new mac. I don't have the laptop I originally synced my iphone up with any more, so how can I do this without it?
I have tried to do this through home sharing but as I don't have the old laptop it wont let me.
Any HELP please?!?
Would be much appreciated.The iphone is not a backup/storage device. The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
Have you failed to do this? -

You might find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
For iTunes purchases File > Devices > Transfer Purchases should copy them over. For music from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs) then if you haven't got it on a backup drive and you don't still have your old computer with it (copying music between computers) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them off your phone : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991 -
