How do I transfer my music from my iPhone to my new Macbook Pro?

I'm wondering how I can transfer my music, etc from my iPhone to my new Macbook Pro?

The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The syncis one way -  computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You should copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

    The way I do it is I hook to my windows computer, it will pop up iTunes. I click iTunes off. The phone will show as another drive on your computer. Click it open then migrate to the photos folder from the iPhone.
    Then select all, cut then right click on your pictures folder on your computer or make a new folder on your desk top like I do and right click on new folder and select paste.
    Photos will be gone. Just remember to turn off the iPhone sync in your photos folder on the phone or they will come back
    Good Luck

    My old computer has crashed with my old itunes on it. How can I transfer my music from my iphone to my new itunes library?

    Use the backup of the old computer and copy the iTunes files to the new one.
    However, since you are writing here, you probably didn't have a backup, so check out this user provided support document https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.
    Was your backup copy of your computer stolen as well?

  • How do I transfer my library from my iPhone to my new Macbook Air?

    How do I transfer my photos from my iPhone or IPad to my new Macbook Air?  I last synced to my old Macbook Pro, and have since had a major issue with the library on that computer.  The library on my iPhone and iPad are good and would like to import those to my iPhoto on my Macbook Air and just start from there.  Any suggestions?  Thank you!!! Craig

    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.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information 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 of it, 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.

  • How do I get all my music from my iPhone onto my new macbook pro's iTunes? My old laptop is broken.

    I recently purchased a Macbook Pro as my old Macbook broke.

  • How do you import music from my iPhone to my new MacBook Pro without loosing non-purchased music?

    I recently purchased my first MacBook Pro. I am trying to import my music from my iphone to my Mac and itunes, but I do not want to sync it because I have downloaded music from previous CD's that I do not want to loose. It says that I can only transfer "Purchased" music into my itunes library? I can I transfer ALL my music from my iphone to my computer and into itunes????

    Syncing is NOT limited to purchases music. You do not need to purchase anything, just learn how to select and sync (not upload) thru iTunes. What does "not let me upload" mean? What is occurring when you try and what are you doing?
    A PDF iPhone iOS 5 user guide is here. You can also download it as a free iBook.

    Did you fail to maintain a backup copy?
    If so, then you can buy a third party program to extract the music not purchased from itunes.
