How do you transfer my itunes ,music, apps,from old PC to a new PC

How do you transfer my old itunes account music,apps from old PC to a new Pc?

These are two possible approaches that should work to move the existing library to the new laptop.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
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 are reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your library or a backup of it then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

    How do I transfer my whole music library from my ipod to my brand new macbook pro?

    You should be able to transfer iTunes purchases as described on the page that you posted from i.e. File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. For music from other sources (e.g CDs) then if you don't have them on a backup that you can copy them from, then there are some programs listed half-way down this page that might be able to copy them from the iPod : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • How do you stop synched iTunes music disappearing from my iPhone 5?

    I have about 35G of music on my iTunes on my iMac, a good % of it having been purchased on ITunes.  The music sync setting for my iPhone 5 is automatic / everything. 
    For the past couple of months, I've been noticing music disappearing from my iPhone when it's offline (eg on the plane, when I listen to my music on my iPhone the most).  Such music would come back as "in the cloud" when I regain wifi / data access.  I would then download them onto my iPhone again.  And then they would disappear again!  How can I stop such annoying behavior?  Does switching music sync to manual help?  Thank you.

    In the Messages app, in the drop down menu go to Messages > Preferences. Once there click the Accounts tab and then remove the iMessage account and that will stop all messages associate with your phone number from showing up on your computer.

  • How do I transfer all files and apps from old iPad to new iPad?

    How do I transfer everything from iPad1 to iPad3?

    You can backup your current iPad, and then restore the new iPad from that backup (a list of what is included in a backup is in this article - it excludes music, videos, synced photos). As the backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their settings and content, for the restore to work completely you'll need all the relevant apps in your computer's iTunes library - otherwise the restore won't be able to install the apps and therefore their content (if you don't have the apps on your computer then you can either copy them over from the current iPad via File > Transfer Purchases or you can re-download them for free).
    The restore won't copy passwords onto a different device, so you will need to re-enter your email, router, and any website passwords onto the new iPad - they only get restored onto the same device.

  • How do I transfer non-iTunes music files from my iPad to my MacBook using home sharing?

    My MacBook Pro hard drive recently had to be replaced by Apple, because it quit for some reason they couldn't identify. However, now my ipad2 doesn't recognize my macbook pro and I have at least 200 music files in my library on my iPad that I did not get from iTunes. I need to upgrade my iPad to iOS 5 but I also don't want to lose all those music files. I was hopeful I could use home sharing to sync my iTunes libraries, but I can't figure out how to export files from my iPad. Please help, anyone?

    I was hopeful I could use home sharing to sync my iTunes libraries,
    Unfortunately, you can only stream content to your iOS devices via home sharing (not sync it).
    I'd have a check through the following user tip instead:

  • How do I transfer an entire music library from old PC that crashed to new PC

    I purchased a new computer and before I could transfer my music library to the new computer (Windows 8.1), my old PC (windows XP) crashed and I can't get access to it any longer.  I can see how to download one song at a time, but is there an option to download the entire music library? (iTunes version 12.01.26)

    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.

    How do I transfer my iTunes music  library to a flash drive

    Drag and Drop the iTunes Folder to the Flash drive.

    Since this really has nothing to do with Appleworks (a long dead Officie suite of Apps), I'll request it be moved to the iTunes forum.

  • HT4623 how do I add the iTunes music app back on my phone?

    how do I add the iTunes music app back on my phone

    iTunes is a native iOS app and cannot be deleted. It is probably on another home page or in a folder. Search to see if you find it, and if not, then go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset Home Screen Layout. That should bring it back. The only other thing is if you have turned on Restrictions and have iTunes restrictions turned on.
