How Can I transfer my music from my phone to a new computer?
Basically my phone is smashed to pieces however before claiming on the insurance, I need to transfer all my music on to a new computer, as the main one I used in the past is no longer with me! is there a way I can do it??
Thanks in advance!If, as you say, you have backed up your purchased music, then you do not need to get it from the phone. Just get it out of the backup, or from your old computer, and copy it to the new computer.
OTOH, if the only copy of the music is on your phone, then you may be out of luck. It depends on how badly damaged it is. If you can still get it to connect to the computer, you could use [Senuti|http://www.fadingred.com/senuti> to download the music from your phone to the computer. If you can't get it to connect, though, and you don't actually have a backup copy anywhere else, your music is gone. -
My old computer crashed. I have all my music on my iPhone. Can anyone help me transfer the music form the iPhone to iTunes on a new computer? Thanks
Restore the songs from a backup, or use these instructions to redownload them through the iCloud if doing so is free in your country.

I have an IPhone 5, and of course I have used ITunes. My Computer has been completely destroyed, so I have to Purchase a new one. How can I transfer my music from my iPhone to my New PC?
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

How do I transfer the music from my IPod to my new IMac computer? I just changed from a PC to IMac. 95% of the music on it is from CD's I own and the ITunes on the new IMac is only recongnizing the ones I bought off of ITunes.
That is correct. The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases.
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one. -
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 -

my computer with itunes zapped by lightning. cannot access itunes files. how can i transfer my music on my iphone to a new computer. much of it was not purchased from itunes store
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.
Itunes purchases can be transferred to your computer: File>Transfer Purchases. -
I have a new pc windows 7 and when i plug in my ipod it says it must erase all the data to sync. How do i get the music from my ipod to my new computer. The old computer is trashed and files are not available, songs are only on ipod.
One of the reasons why including your iTunes library with your computer's backup is a good idea. Use this link for future reference in this regard.

iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod, iPad, and iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
First you need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so.
With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone. -
My old computer crashed and I have a new computer. How can I save my music from my IPod to the new computer since it isn't in my Library. I don't want to sync and lose music.
Then you will need to search for a 3rd party program to transfer content

One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump andiPodRobot.
If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.

My old computer has crashed. My new computer has my iphone account. How can I transfer my playlist from my ipod to my new computer?
Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:
