How do I transfer playlists that were synched with my old laptop's iTunes to this new one?
I have a new laptop and loaded iTunes, did a transfer purchases and my playlists didn't copy over. How can I take them from my phone and load them onto iTunes?
The only way to transfer playlists and to make your iTunes library on your new computer identical to your iTunes library on your old computer in every way is by transferring your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer per the instructions included with this link.

Just got a new MacMini. Migrated files using Time Machine. However, now, on Launchpad, I see several Firmware updates that were relevant for the old machine, but not for the new one. How do I get rid of these updates? They won't delete!
Only thing I can think of is trying this Lion trick...

How do i update applications that were downloaded with a different apple id
how do i update applications that were downloaded with a different apple id
You can't. The iLife apps get tied in with not only the Apple ID, but the Mac that they were accepted on.The Mac App Store will always remeber that the iLife apps have been accepted once before already on this Mac and will only offer to update them with the Apple ID into whose account they were accepted.

Updating apps that were purchased with an old account
How do I update apps that were purchased under prior email account? I no longer have this email address but the app updates keep prompting me for it.
Apps are forever tied to the account used to download them. That means they will always require it to update. The fact the email is no longer functional has nothing to do with this.
If you still have the password for the Apple ID (not the email account) you can still use it. You can also go to appleid.apple.com and update the email address for the Apple ID there to a functioning one so the Apple ID remains useable. -
How do I transfer a license of Logic Pro Studio from a broken Mac to a new one?
I need some help here with this. I previously installed Logic on my now broken (water damage) Macbook Pro and now I'm looking to get it installed on this new one. Thanks in advance.
There is no license transfer. You either installed from the DVD and enter your serial number again, or - if you bought it in the Mac App Store - you just re-download it.

When I first got my Ipod nano I synched it to a computer in my basement. Now that I have a laptop, I wanted to move all the playlists and songs I had on the old computer to this laptop. I authorized the accounts that my family used and I hit the "transfer purchases" button. The playlists I have on my ipod from the old computer will not download onto the itunes in this laptop, nor will playlists on this new itunes download onto my ipod.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? I would really appreciate some help here, It's driving me crazy. Thanks for taking the time to read this. If you want me to be more specific on something let me know.
-SarahThe transfer purchases option only transfer purchased content from your iPod to your iTunes library and not other items such as playlists and non-iTunes purchased content. You'll probably need third party software such as YamiPod to help you export the playlists from your iPod to your new PC.
Better yet, if the old PC is still working using one of the methods described in this Apple support document to help transfer the library and all of its contents to your new laptop.
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
As for why new content is not syncing to the iPod, it's because the iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time. So right now, your iPod is still associated/connected with the old iTunes library. In to link it with a new library, you'll need to restore it via iTunes. Keep in mind that this process wipes all content from the device and resets all settings back to their defaults.

Here's my problem (and take into account I am not technically savvy). I use my iPod nano every day and have an extensive playlist, but my iPod nano is synched with a friend's Mac and under her account, and she has moved out of the area I live in. I downloaded iTunes for Window (7) onto my PC and opened my own account. How do I transfer my playlist from my iPod nano under my friend's Mac account (and there's no way to contact her) to my PC and my own iTunes account? I was told to first "unsynch" my iPod from her Mac using Senuti or Export on my PC, but I cannot find a free version of either program, and don't want to download a free program from a website that may be unreliable. From there, I'm totally lost. So, I basically want to know if this can be done, because I have to hire a technician at my local Apple store to do this whole process for me (I'm terrified of losing my playlist) and want to keep the costs down (they charge $40 per half hour and money is tight for me). I also want to back up my playlist, and looked into creating a Cloud account, but it says to synch my iPod with Cloud first, and I don't dare to try that on my own, so I guess I'll have to pay for the techs to do it. Is there another way to store my playlist, such as a flash drive? Still, I don't dare to touch anything on my iPod without face-to-face technical support. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!
This is not legal.
The music purchased with your friends account or owned by your friend does not belong to you and she has no legal right to distribute it to you. -
I have my old iphone which is a 3g and I am trying to transfer all my music to my new iphone which is a 4s. All my music was saved on my computer but of course I had to put it in the shop and no longer have the music:( It is not showing up in my itunes account where it used to be. How do I transfer from 3g to 4s when only pics show up???? Someone please help!!!
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 -
How do I get songs to play on my new mac that were associated with an old itunes ID?
I recently purchased a new lap top and downloaded my songs from a back up server and someof the songs will not play becasue they are associated with an old Apple ID which is no longer used and has not been used for years. How do I get these songs to play under the new Apple ID that I have?
You need to authorize the computer to play content from that Apple ID. If it's completely inaccessible, click here and request assistance.

How do i sync musics that was in my documents, then opened into my itunes?! ive been able to do this before but now i cant even find a sync button?
This is correct.
Ipod touch/iphone/ipad will sync with one and only one library/computer at a time. Syncing to another will indeed erase the curent content and replace with the content from the new comptuer.
This is the design of the product. -
I'm trying to get Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan to play in iTunes but it keeps prompting me to authorize by asking for my Apple ID & Password. It defaults to my old ID which is a Yahoo email address that I deleted. I replace that ID with my Gmail ID and it says that I'm authorized to play the movie but it still won't play after I select PLAY. If I select Pause and Play again, the Apple ID prompt cycle begins again.
I'd delete this movie but I'm afraid that I will be charged again for redownloading it since there are now 4 versions of this film; Original, Director's Cut and their SD & HD versions.
Is there a solution that will allow me to play this film? One other thing, this plays in my Apple TV (latest model) but has no sound.
I'm confused.I tried but it won't let me even access the old Apple ID. It won't recoginze its old password and will not let me make a new one. (The site tells me it has sent an email to let me change the password but the email does not come.)
