How do you transfer songs from one computer to another?

So my current computer's usb cables don't work anymore and I need a way to transfer the songs from this computer to my sister's. I have music that wasn't purchased from the store in my library from things like cd's and other personal files that my friends and family have sent me and I would like to have them all in my library but the only thing that shows up on my sister's computer are the songs that I've purchased. Is there a way to sync my music or put it on my sister's computer somehow? Thank you!

See also Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. Even if you transfer the songs via some other method when working with a new library you should also look at backing up and then restoring the device to protect the data that you have on it. Alternatively copy over the entire library into a new location on your sister's computer and switch to your library when you want to update your device. See iTunes: How to open an alternate iTunes Library file or create a new one.

  • How can you transfer songs from a computer to another?

    here's the problem
    my old computer shorted out and was beyond repair
    so i have a new one. but, there was about 100$ worth of music on the old one
    so...my question is: how can i get my songs back?
    (remember, my old computer is worthless)

    1 do you have backups?
    2 do you have your songs on an iPod? It is possible to copy music from you iPod to your PC, but you have to do it right or the files can get deleted from the iPod. Don't allow your iPod to sync with iTunes on the new PC.
    3 Although your old PC may be fried, it is possible that the disk drive still works. If the drive is OK you can purchase a Drive Enclosure and use the old drive as an external HD on your new PC. If that works your should simply be able to copy your msuic files across.

    i got a new ipod touch and i want to put my music from my old one onto the new one. but it is not working and i do not know what to do.

    Haven't you got your songs in iTunes? Just connect your new one and it will update from your Library.
    However if you have deleted them from the PC, there are a number of third party utilities that can retrieve the files from your iPod.

  • How do you transfer PSE from one computer to another when the original purchase was on line without a disc?

    I have PSE10 on a WindowsXP machine that I upgraded from PSE8.  The upgrade was done with a download; no disc.  The only disc I have is the PSE8 version.  I now have a new Windows 8 machine.  How can I get the PSE10 program onto the new Windows 8 machine?  I will also need to transfer the organizer information.  Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

    Hi there,
                  I see that you have informed 2 things:
                  1. Upgraded OS WindowsXP to Windows8
                  2. Do not have installation media Disc for PSE10 as you purchsed as download.
                  1. Please note: PSE10 is not compatible with Windows8, it's not tested on this OS, however you can try working on this, in case if you face any issue it will be extremely hard to get it resolved,
                  so I would still suggest you go with Windows 7 in case if you have it. For Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 System Requirement visit [ System requirements | Adobe Photoshop Elements ]
                  2. Mostly downloads are provided by directly Adobe, so you can directly login to your adobe.com account and download the software from there, you only need to have the installation media of current version software,
                      When you try to activate the PSE10, you need to enter the serial number of PSE10, as it's an upgrade, you will be asked for it's previous qualifying serial number of PSE8.
                      ......................If you need help in finding serial number, please visit [ Find your serial number quickly ]
                    -> In case if it's purchased from a reseller, you may  not get the download now, for that you have have [ Other downloads ]

  • Hi, I activated my CS6 in 2012 under my student licence and still using it. I've heard that you can't run CS6 on multiple computers. How do I transfer it from one computer to another as I am switching computers?

    Hi,
    first, I'm not Adobe's "slave" as you might to accuse me. Most of the posters here are users like me.
    I only can repeat that what I found in Adobe's help sites, as I wrote above. You are free to figure out the "real" truth and - the best would be - you may contact Adobe directly, here are - I'm sure you know them -  the links I would use: http://helpx.adobe.com/support.html  and http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html.

    How do I transfer iTunes from one computer to another?

    This really depends on how technical you want to get, and how much of the library data you want to retain. First, there is getting the actual song files over to your new computer. If both computers are on the same network and are on iTunes 9, you can use home sharing to transfer the song files to your new computer.
    Once the files are transferred, now you have to get all of the metadata transferred, like Playlists and Song Ratings. There is a method for doing this that involves editing your Library.xml file to transfer Playlists, Playcounts, etc..
    If all you want to transfer is your Playlists and song files, there are programs that will back up your playlists so you can transfer them to a new computer, but if you're able to do the above XML edits (which are pretty simple), that is preferred (and cheaper).

  • How can I transfer work from one computer to another?

    How can I transfer work from one computer to another?

    Welcome to the forum.
    I can think of three basic ways to accomplish what you wish to do:
    Use the Project Archiver to archive your Project (and check the box to gather the media files), to an external HDD. Probably the easiest way to do it.
    Copy the Project and ALL media files to an external HDD, but be prepared to relink the media files to the Project, as the drive letter (part of the Absolute Path) will have changed.
    Edit loosely, and Share to an AV file, which will be Imported into a New Project on that second computer. Or, edit VERY tightly, and do the same. I like the first, as removing, replacing Transitions, etc., can be much more difficult, unless that "tight edit" is 100% done.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

Then after half an hour, then an hour, then 3 hours. My problem is that it's not showing up! It's stuck in recovery mode! There's still like 25% battery. So I have no idea why.
