How do transfer my sons music off my computer to a new account?

I want to get my sons rap music off my itunes on my phone and computer and open a new account for him.  I have no clue how to do this!  Seriously, itunes is becoming more and more frustrating the longer I use it. 

Anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID

    Download it and find the sub-folder Music.
    Right click that and export it. Then import those files into iTunes. Do note that the file names are going to be pretty wierd (Like for example LPITE.mp3  - for the song Linkin Park In the End) but it should be fine if the names are in the files. You will know when you import it into iTunes.

  • How do i get my music from another computer to my new laptop

  • How do I get my music off one computer onto another?

    I feel stupid for not knowing, but i need them off of my desktop onto my laptop

    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.

  • Moving ITunes off old computer back onto new computer

    I imagine this question is not new and has been addressed, but I seem to find conflicting answers. I am getting a new computer. How do I move ITunes library off old computer on to new computer while keeping playlists intact? Can I copy the folder to an external hard drive, change media folder location in preferences to ext hard drive, install ITunes on new computer, move folder back, and change folder location back to new computer?

    I can see where my response was wrong now, thanks for that
    No worries here. Just want to make sure the correct way to do it gets pointed out.
    When messing owth the files, users need to understand the differences between *iTunes library* and *iTunes media folder*.
    iTunes library consists of everything in iTunes (iTunes folder and all media in iTunes, regardless of where it is located).
    iTunes media folder is usually located inside the iTunes folder (doesn't need to be) but it can be welsewhere. Also, medcia files can be located anywhere and not necessarily inside the iTunes media folder location shown in iTunes prefs > Advanced.
    The support article I referred to can be used to move the iTunes library to the external hard drive the OP referred to
    Actually, the article you linked to moves only the *iTunes media folder* for use with the same iTunes library on the same computer. If you only copy the iTunes media folder to a new computer, iTunes will be empty.
    It does not move any of the *iTunes library files*, which contain the playlists.
    and then again from there to the new computer, which is what you are also suggesting
    My suggestion copies the entire iTunes library (including playlists, artwork, ratings, etc.), and the iTunes media to a new location/computer and the iTunes will see it just like it was on old computer.

  • I recently purchased a new mac computer and would like to sync the music off my iPhone to my new mac.However, my phone and my new mac have different apple Ids.The PC which my phone is synced and has the same apple ID but does not let me transfer the music

    Hi I recently purchased a new mac computer and would like to sync the music off my iPhone to my new mac.However, my phone and my new mac have different apple Ids.The PC which my phone is synced and has the same apple ID but does not let me transfer the music. Home sharing is not working. How do I successfully transfer and sync the music off my ipone 4 to my mac book pro if they have different Apple IDs? Thanks!

    What do you mean the PC won't let you transfer the music? Save your entire iTunes folder (this is assuming that you have all your music stored in your iTunes folder) to an external hard drive. Connect that hard drive to your Mac. Copy the iTunes folder to your computer. Hold down the option key while launching iTunes on your Mac. Select the library you just copied when it ask you to select which library you want to open.

  • My iPod touch is telling me I need to restore to factory settings. How can I get my music off of it before this happens?

    My IPod it telling me to restore factory settings. I know this will cause me to lose all of the music on it so far. How can I get the music off of it before I restore the settings? I really do not want to lose thousands of songs.

    What is telling you that and what is the wording?
    Can you make a backup via iTunes:
    iOS: How to back up
    Can you transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    If not then there is nothing you can do except restore the iPod and thus erase the iPod.

    Click on transfer purchases only works for purchased apps and music, but NOT the music rip from CDs or other sources.

    You should have a backup but if not you will need to transfer the contents before you sync or it will be erased.

    Transfer all iTunes purchases by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases with your iPod Touch plugged into your PC and in iTunes.
    For all non-iTunes purchased content, you'll need the help of third party software to help get the job done.  See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering a few options.
