How do I transfer my non purchased music from PC to ipad mini

I'm trying to transfer all my music from my itunes on a PC with Windows XP to my new ipad mini. It will only sync the purchased music. How do I transfer the non purchased music too?

I use 3rd party apps in conjunction with File Sharing (tap to enlarge image)

  • What is the best device to use to import non-purchased music from iphone to ipad?

    My problem is that I have a lot of music from CD's, etc. that I did not purchase from itunes that got lost from my computer but I still have on my iphone4.  I want to sync my phone to my ipad so I don't lose this music entirely.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    There are a number of legitimate 3rd party alternatives to iTunes for iOS device content management.
    This is but one;

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

    How can I transfer all my downloaded music from my I phone to my computer, even music that is not purchased but is from CDs

    There's some third party applications available for recovering content off an iPod, iPhone or iPad. The following article is pretty old (2008) so it would be best to reality-check the capabilities and availability of the various listed items prior to opting for a particular product:

  • I want to tranfer non purchased music from my iphone 4s back onto my PC that I have re-formatted due to errors.

    I want to tranfer non purchased music from my iphone 4s back onto my PC that I have re-formatted due to errors.
    I have backed up the iphone onto my newly installed version of itunes.
    All the purchased albums/songs have been tranferred.
    I tried to tranfer by ticking the sync box but its says it will wipe the iphone and replace it with the new library which has only a fraction of my 1000+ songs.
    I have read many reviews that say it can be done with a third party program but when I looked into this they offer free evaluation but want about £20 for the program but feel this can be done at no cost.
    The itunes is saying my iphone can only be synced to one PC but the original one is wiped.
    Am I right in thinking I should go ahead with syncing the iphone then do the restore. Im just worried that once its synced the music and photos/videos will be gone forever.
    If I go down this route, I think I still need to know how to tranfer the non purchased songs from my iphone back onto the PC with the newly reinstalled itunes.

    Then you will have to purchase 3rd party  software.

    No. You will lose the music that's on the phone if you do that.
    The iPhone is not a backup device. Restore the music to your computer using the backup you should have made of your data before you re-formatted it. If you didn't back up your computer, you will have to pay for software to try and extract it from the phone.

  • How can I transfer my photos and music from my iphone 4 to my new iphone6

    How can I transfer my photos and music from my IPhone 4 to my IPhone 6 ?

    if the music was downloaded via iTunes you will be able to access it from iCloud when you set up the new device. other music that was synced to the iPhone would need to be synced to the new iPhone from the computer that you used to sync the iPhone 4.
    photos can be transferred via the following method.
    plug iPhone 4 into iTunes on computer. select back up to computer.
    Plug in the iPhone 6 and press restore. when setting up the iPhone press restore from iTunes. plug into computer and a complete copy of the iPhone 4 will be put onto the iPhone 6. except for the music...(you will have to download your apps again from App Store but you can find them all under the purchased tab on App Store. you won't have to pay for the apps again)
    please note this will delete the current memory on iPhone 6

  • How to I transfer non-purchased music from an old PC to my new macbook?

    I have an old Dell laptop that is on its last leg and I have about a weeks worth of non-purchased music that I would like to keep. Most of this music is from CDs that I exported to iTunes on the Dell but no longer have the CDs. Is there a way to transfer this music to my new MacBook Pro? I don't really want to keep ALL of the music so it would be best if I can choose artists/albums to transfer.

    If you don't want to keep all the music the best way is to simply drag the media you want to keep from the PC iTunes window to a flash drive and then add it to iTunes on the Mac.  Hopefully the music isn't stored in WMA format because iTunes on a Mac cannot read that at all, and hopefully it isn't stored as WAV because it will lose all its labels during the transfer using this particular method.
    There could potentially be issues with losing artwork too depending upon how the file artwork was initially added.

  • How can i transfer non purchased music from my iPod classic to iTunes?

    Recently, my laptop died and geek squad was unable to extract files from hard drive. How do I transfer non purchased music (burned cd's) from my ipod classic to itunes on my new laptop? Apple customer support suggested I engage support communities to find out about 3rd party software (not apple) that can accomplish this. Does anyone know of where I can find such software? Please and thank you

    Back when I had to do something like that, I used Copytrans, http://www.copytrans.net/. You might see if they are what you want.
    At worst, you could open the ipod classic in disk mode, locate the music files, copy them to your hard disk (they won't have good names), and just add them to your library. You'll probably lose play counts and *s with that approach, but it should work.

    Can anyone help a girl out?

    Create a folder on your desktop. In iTunes select all the songs you want to transfer. Drag them from iTunes to the folder. Transfer the folder to the new computer. Select all the songs in the folder and drag them to the 'Music' section of iTunes.

  • Non-purchased music from iPod to transfer to iMac

    Is there any software that's recommended to transfer non-purchased items from your iPod to your iMac?

    * I see the music in my itunes, but there is no folder! How can that be??*
    The files are hidden. Did you read the link I posted above? It contains instructions for both Mac and Windows to unhide the files.\
    *Side note: My ipod says "do not disconnect" could that have something to do with it?*
    It has nothing to do with it, your iPod is either enabled for disk use, set to manual update or both. Setting an iPod to manual update enables disk use by default. When using an iPod in enabled for disk use the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod

  • Hi was wondering how i get back all my purchased music from itunes. i plugged my phone in to my computer and it syned all my old purchased music from my ipod list and not all my new purchased music is gone.

    I am having trouble getting back all my purchased music from itunes

    Does music show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone and the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes for redownloading ? Whether music will show there will depend upon what country that you are in - and even if music does show it will also depend upon whether it's still in your country's store.
    If you aren't in a country where you can redownload music and you don't have copies of it anywhere, then you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
