My computer busted so I got a new one and downloaded itunes.

I got my music from a bunch of old CD s so 'Transfer purchases' will not work I want to know how to get my music from my ipod to the new library. I have no access to my old computer and i do not have Home Share. I am lost without my music so please help ASAP. i do have icloud though but I dont know if it saves music *** well.. PLEASEEE HELP!

Transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer

    Lisa,
    Just get copies of the song files and add them to your iTunes library.  With the exception of any DRM-protected files (purchased before mid-2009 and never upgraded) they will play fine, even though they are technically associated with the original account.

  • How to transfer music from one itunes account to another on the same computer

    How do I transfer iTunes music to another comp account on the same comp. I have Windows 7 and I made my own Windows account. all of my music is on the iTunes on the other admin. account. So how do i transfer all of my stuff on iTunes to my own account? I've tried going into Preferences then advance but that's not doing anything. I signed into my account on iTunes but that didn't seem to help. Please give me something simple and not too long. I'm trying to do this as quick as possible lol. thanks in advance!
    I'm running the lastest iTunes. I just upgraded it today.

    Move the music files or the entire iTunes library to a shared folder.
    If you moved individual files, open iTunes from the desired account and drag them to the library in the iTunes application window.
    If you moved the entire library, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and choose that instance of it.

    open itunes on the new computer and go to the itunes store
    make sure you are signed in with the apple id of whoever purchased all of music from the itunes store
    on the right hand side of the itunes store home page, under quick links click 'purchased'
    you will be able to download anything you have previously purchased for free
    let me know if that works for you.

    Your content will only be where you put it.  It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone: File>Device>Transfer purchases.
    You can import your pics taken with the iphone as you would with any digital camera.
    You can e-mail the other pics to yourself, they will never be of the original quality.
    You can out a unique contact and calendar entry on the computer.  You should get the option to merge the data when you sync.

  • How do i transfer the music from my iphone 4 to my new laptop which uses Windows 8?

         So yesterday I bought a new laptop for college. I have an iPhone 4 with all my music and stuff on it, and i want to transfer the songs that are on my iphone to my new computer.

    Hello there, parker428.
    The following Knowledge Base article should prove very helpful:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
    Specifically the following:
    Transferring purchases
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod has your purchased content from the iTunes Store, you can transfer the content to a computer that is authorized for your Apple ID.
    Note: This option only works for content you purchased from the iTunes Store (as opposed to content from other sources, such as CDs you may have imported). For content you did not purchase from the iTunes Store,synchronization occurs in one direction only. This means your content can be copied from a computer to your iOS device, but cannot be copied from your device to a computer.
    Open iTunes.
    From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer.
    Enter your Apple ID and password. Then, click the Authorize button.
    Connect your device your computer. If it is synced with another iTunes library, you may be asked if you want to "Erase and Sync" or "Transfer Purchases."
    If that alert appears, click Transfer Purchases.
    Important: Clicking Erase and Sync will delete any existing content currently on your device. The content would then be replaced with the content that is on the computer.
    If you were not offered the option to transfer purchases:
    After connecting your device to the computer, its icon appears in iTunes. Click the icon.
    From the File > Devices menu, choose "Transfer Purchases from 'Your device name.'"
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro D.

  • I have a 4th or 5th generation iPod nano (I don't know which) but I want to transfer all of my music into my new laptop's iTunes library but I can't lose any of it because I don't have a back up. How do I do this?

    I have an iPod nano and a new laptop. I just got my first Apple id and I really want to transfer all of my iPod music into my library. I don't have any back up and can't lose some of this music because it was a gift from an ex-boyfriend and I don't want to lose the great music. Please help me! Thank you!!

    You can deauthorise all 5 at once, then reauthorize the one you want.

  • Laptop crashed and how to transfer music from ipod back to laptop and won't transfer new purchases to ipod?

    My laptop crashed about 2 days ago. I got it fixed and had to reinstall it. I had to reinstall itunes all over again. How do I transfer all my songs from my ipod including the ones that were from hardcopies and by hardcopies I mean cds I bought in real life and is on a disc. All of the songs are still on my ipod so how do I upload all of the songs and videos (purchases, music/songs from hardcopies/cds uploaded not bought from itunes, etc...?) How would I upload all of that back to itunes on my laptop? Another question is for some reason when I hook up my ipod to my laptop, I recently bought 23 songs about a day ago and it won't upload those purchases to my ipod, is it because I have all the hardcopies and downloads on my ipod that the itunes library doesnt have? Also, how would I sync my newest purchases to my ipod efficiently without deleting any of the hardcopies I uploaded before my laptop crashed?

    phonefans is a spammer, ignore his posts.
    If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    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.
    Another free program is Pod Player.

  • How do I get all of the music on my computer to transfer to my Iphone?  For some reason, itunes has picked up some songs but not others.  example, I have several CD's loaded in which only 1 or 2 songs from the CD shows up in itunes.

    I have about 70 Cd's loaded on my computer as I had previously owned another MP3 device before I got enamored with the Ipad and Iphone. My problem is itunes will not recognize all of this music.  To give a specific example, I have an old Bon Jovi Cd "crossroads" , itunes only recognizes 2 songs off the Cd.  How can I get itunes to recognize these songs?  They do not show up on itunes anywhere but if i go to my music folder I can locate the songs and it even shows the itunes logo but, the songs will not play with itunes.  I've got a few hours of music i would like to have on my iphone. Can anyone please help me with this?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
    Use your backup copy to put everything on the computer, then sync.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone to your computer - File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your other library/computer, or your backup copy, to your new library/computer
