How do you transfer my library to a new pc.

How do I Transfer my whole library to a new PC.
I synced the Ipad2 to the new computer and the music transferred to the PC but not the Apps

I assume that you have authorized the new PC for iTunes content ...iTunes>Store>Authorize this Computer ...from the iTunes menu at the top of the screen.

You can transfer the apps this way as long as they are still on your iPad.
Connect your iPad to your new PC and launch iTunes. Before you sync - right click on the device name on the left hand side of the iTunes window and select Transfer Purchases from the pop up contextual menu. The apps will transfer to the iTunes library. You can also select this option by going to the iTunes menu at the top of the screen and go to File>Transfer Purchases.
If you still have the old PC the best way to do this would be to backup your iTunes library and restore it to your new PC. This is pretty interesting and you can take a look at this.

I have the computer with my itunes library on it but no longer have access to the email account the library was set up with. How can I transfer the library to a new appleid/email?

I have the computer that holds my itunes library. However, I no longer have access to the email account (and therefore apple account) it was set up with so can't sync/update etc. How can I transfer the library to my new apple id? Any help gratefully received as searched the internet but can't find the answer!
Have ipod touch 4th gen, ipod touch 5th gen and ipod nano 7th gen all to sync to library.

Hi Stillme,
You cannot transfer purchases from one Apple ID to another. You need to go into the old Apple ID and change it to the new email address instead of using a new Apple ID altogether.
Apple - My Apple ID
If you can't remember the password to the old ID, then click on Reset your Password, and answer the Security Questions. If you can't remember the Security Questions, contact iTunes Support and have them reset:
APPLE ID SECURITY CONTACT NUMBERS
Once you get into your old account, Edit the Apple ID to your new email address. Before you will be able to do that you are going to have to change the email address on the new Apple ID to something else.
Cheers,

HT4910 when using i cloud, how do you transfer pictures and contacts to new i phone?

When using i cloud on my i phone, how do you transfer contacts and pictures to new i phone?

Sync your contacts, calendar and other data on your old phone with your iCloud account by turnining sync on in Settings>iCloud. Then back up your old phone to iCloud.
When setting up your new phone, restore it from the backup of your old phone. Then sign into your iCloud account and turn on your data syncing and your contacts, calendars and other synced data will appear on your new phone.

how do you transfer contacts from iphone to new ipad?

"Paired"? I think you are saying you were trying to use Bluetooth to do this transfer. That will not work.
Instead, try one of these two methods:
1. Use iCloud to contain the contacts. Then set both the iPad and iPhone up to reference the iCloud contacts.
2. Sync the iPhone using iTunes on your computer. Then sync the iPad using the same iTunes.
(This may or may not work depending on what you use to house the contacts.)

How can I transfer iTunes library to a new Apple ID?

I have a substantial quantity of music in iTunes on a old lap top. All the music has been put on to my iPod. None of it was purchased from iTunes but was uploaded from CD's. I have since moved from the UK to France with a new lap top and now have a new e-mail address. The old email address which is now defunct, was assigned to the iTunes account on the old laptop. I downloaded iTunes on to my new laptop and assigned a Frecnh email to it. I want to get rid of the old lap top, but need to transfer the library to the new Apple ID. I have tried to change my Apple ID on the old laptop to match the one I am currently using but do not appear to be able to do so as Apple will not permit me to used the email address assigned to the new account. Is there any way to transfer the library over?

How do i transfer my library to a new computer

I have just bought a new computer and want to transfer my library to the new computer but cant seem to work out how to do it. does anyone know how?

Unless you have a backup somewhere, then no.
You need the entire iTunes folder located in the My Music directory on your old PC.
You will still be able to redownload your iTunes purchases but any non-iTunes purchased media will be lost as well as playlists, play counts, etc...

How do you transfer Safari bookmarks to a new MAC?

I have a G4 Tower (Jaguar) but just got an iMac G5 (that will be Tiger). How do I transfer my Safari bookmarks to my new MAC? THX, Barb

Your new iMac has a feature as part of the setup to migrate all your existing user settings (and applications if you wish) from your G4 (you connect the two systems using a Firewire cable), so that's probably the easiest way.
If you just want the Safari bookmarks, though, and nothing else, they're in your users' Library -> Safari folder, the file names Bookmarks.plist. Just copy that file to the same folder on your new iMac.
Hope this helps.

How Do I transfer ipod library over to new itunes library

I recently got a new computer so i lost everyting in the transfer. I have windows 8 and I am trying to move all the songs from my Ipod to my new library. When I go into the music tab on itunes it says it will delete everything on the Ipod and replace it with the few songs in the new library. It still shows me the songs on my ipod in the "on this ipod" tab but I dont know how to sync it

The ipod is not a storage/backup device. The sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.
You may be able to purchase a third party program to get the music - not supported by Apple.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Us eyour backup copy to move everything to the new computer.

How do you transfer an iPhone to a new computer?

I have a working older Windows computer and am able to create a backup for my iPhone. I now have a MacBook and am wanting to transfer all music, apps, and most importantly the data with all my notes over to my MacBook. How am I able to do this?

You need to back up and transfer purchases as shown below:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
iTunes Store: Transfer purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
If some of the music is not purchased from the iTunes Store you will need to transfer those another way. The article below may help:

Can anyone help?
My old laptop broke recently and i want to transfer all my songs from my ipod to my new laptop. Does anyone know how to do this? I tried just connecting my ipod to the computer but it didnt work.
Thanks!

As long as you didn't let the new computer wipe out your iPod...
*Recover media from iPod*
See this post from Zevoneer for options on moving your iPod data back to your computer.
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7217190#7217190
Otherwise if you still have the dead laptop it may be possible to extract the drive and hook it up in an external drive bay. I've recovered data for a number of friends and colleagues this way.

How do you transfer music from IPOD to New Computer

What do you do if you get a new computer? Itunes says IPOD is synced with another library and will not transfer music.

If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
Enable your iPod for disk use.
See: iPod Disk Use.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.
