  • How do I transfer the music from my iPhone to my MacBook?

    I recently purchased a 2007 MacBook online. Everything works fine, I don't think it's the computer that's the problem. The iTunes that I downloaded on it was to old so I had to update it to the latest version. At the time I was also updating my Mac software to OS X Snow Leopard and it had finished when I was about half way done downloading iTunes. It said I had to restart my computer so I did thinking that I would stop downloading and I would just have to re-download it again after I started my computer up again. To my surprise when I had started it up again the newest version of iTunes was downloaded. So I procceded to sync my iPhone to iTunes and all my stuff shows up with the iCloud sign in the bottom left corner. When I tried to iCloud it onto my computer it said that this computer was not authorised and that if I wanted to download these songs I would need to authorise this computer in the iTunes Store. So I went to authorise it and that took forever because the newest version of iTunes is so different from the older versions and I was very confused. Eventually I got to authorise it and then I left the store. When I got back to the library I found that all my music was gone. So I synced it again and that didn't work so for a while I was stumped. Then I found the "Transfer Purchases from "iPhone" " button and I clicked on that. So it downloaded all of my songs except they are a light shade of gray and I can't play them because they are not completly downloaded on my computer. It has a dotted circle around the ones that still need to be downloaded and I can't for the life of me figure out how to download them! I found that it downloads recent purchases that I have made ever since I set up iTunes on my computer but not the ones I made previous to setting up iTunes on this computer. I have a hunch that this is maybe because it didn't get the chance to finish downloading... I'm very confused and I'm deciding if it will just be easier to un-download it and the re-download it. Please help!

    If you're talking about music and movies an i-device was not designed for unique storage of media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing music and movies is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred from a device to a computer.

    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

    - You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
    Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
    - If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
    go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.

    If all the synced media like music is in the iTunes library of the second computer it is very easy.

    They are not taking up storage space.  Apple knows you installed them at one time (="purchased", whether you paid money or not), and merely keeps a list so that if you wish to reinstall any of them on this or a future device, you can.  This is useful if maybe you deleted them due to space constraints, and now have a device with more memory and wish to reinstall.
    It's also useful for taking a trip down Memory Lane looking at all the useless apps you installed once then immediately deleted once you realized they were total garbage ...

    I just purchased a new macbookpro and I would like to put the music from my iphone to my macbook.  I have downloaded from iTunes, however it want to add ALL music to my macbook.

    When you plug in the iPhone, go to the menu bar and select "Transfer all purchases" to move them to your MacBook Pro.
    If that doesn't work. Go here for a whole list of Apps that can help you.
    I personally like Music Rescue the most.  You can get it here and use the License Key that they give out for FREE now.

    How do i sync my contacts from my iPhone with my macbook pro for messaging purposes?

    Hey dthompson2108, 
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities. 
    You can sync contacts between your iPhone and MacBook Pro using iCloud or iTunes.
    See this link for help with setting up iCloud on your computer and device(s):
    Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
    Instead of turning on iCloud on your iPhone and Mac, you can sync using iTunes as explained in this article:

    All the best,

  • How do I take the music from my iphone and put it on Itunes - PC

    My daughter erased all my music off my itunes on my pc by mistake.
    How do I transfer the music from my phone to my itunes....

    If you were using a Mac you could use a program but AFAIK there is nothing similar yet for the PC.
    However, you should have a backup of your music, correct? Just restore from that backup to your computer (and, if not, at least this will teach you the importance of always backing up your music purchases onto writable media like DVD).

  • HT1766 How do I save the music from my iphone 5c to my laptop?

    Hi,
    How do I save the the music from my iphone 5c to my laptop?
    Thank you.

    Hello daisyruth,
    If the music on your iPhone 5c was purchased from iTunes there are two different ways to get this music to your iTunes library. You can either connect your iPhone to iTunes and transfer the purchases or you can download your purchases directly to your iTunes library from the iTunes program itself. The following articles will help you get that music to your computer.

    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old comptuer, to your new one.
