New computer ?? on how to move library to new computer
I have done a search and followed some directions regarding this. But I'm a complete dummy when it comes to this. I'm hoping for some gently advice :-))
I have a new computer and want to move all my itunes to the new computer since it is faster. My new computer has Vista on it. I have read thru some searches regarding this, and this is what I've done so far.
I have made the new computer authorized under my account. And when I did that my music library did load on the new computer. None of my videos or movies moved to the new computer, is this supposed to be the case?? Also, when the music showed on the new computer, it did not show under the different playlist names that I have. Just the entire library. How do I get the new itunes to look like it does on the old computer (breaking down all the different playlists we have). We have 3 different ipods and different list for different family members.
I would appreciate any help..but please keep in mind. I really need an itunes
for dummy book! LOL Thanks in advanceI agree with that last statement, there does need to be an iTunes for Dummy's book. I could use it myself. Anyways...
To put your videos back in iTunes, you'll have to copy them from your old computer to the new one. Copy them onto a flash drive, and put them on the new PC. Then select: File/ Add File (Folder) to Library, and pick the File you want to add (folder of stuff you want to add).
You'll have to re-make the playlists yourself, sorry. Were they "Smart Playlists"? Because there is an option for these in the file menu. If your syncing iPods, watch out. Vista doesn't like iPods much. I've been having massive trouble putting mysic on my new Classic, and before that, updating my 30 GB Video. Good luck to you, and your family.

How to get the organized files back when you move to a new computer
How to get your file folder organization back when you move to a new computer?
Your PSE8 is using the default, new empty catalog that's created when PSE is installed.
In Windows, search your entire computer for this file:
catalog.pse8db
The largest one that's found will be your old catalog. If your computer people didn't restore that catalog file (and its entire directory), ask them where the heck it is.

I have a new Windows 7 computer. On my old XP, I had my iTunes on an external hard drive that I still want to use, but now I need to figure out how to set up my new computer to do this. Do I do a fresh install of ITunes first, on my new computer? Any help would be greatly appreciated! I am so glad that I recently synched my ipod.
How did you migrate to external drive originally?
Was your original iTunes setup set to keep all files in the same location, i.e. consolidated on your external drive?
Did you actually move your iTunes library out to the external drive, or did you only changed the location of the music files, and then reimported them into iTunes?
Sounds like you simply moved your files out to the external drive and reimported, but the library itself was still pointing to your internal hard drive. Which means anything you added after the migration was kept in the internal iTunes library folder rather than in your external drive.
If you still have the old XP computer around you amy be able to salvage what you imported afterwards from there.
Otherwise, you basically have only the part of the library you moved out.
To have correctly moved your library you needed to have moved a folder named iTunes from the Music folder in XP. That would contain all your iTunes library information including music, videos apps etc...

Old computer died - need to get itunes songs/apps on new computer
Our old computer has died. Repair guy is able to retrieve files from hard drive. My kids have an ipod nano and ipod touch. How do we get the new computer set up and get all of the songs/apps/movies onto the new computer? Should I ask repair guy to look for specific file on hard drive or will itunes get info from their ipods when they plug in?

Downloading iTunes Store old apps to new computer
I just recenly bought a new iMac and I was wondering how I might auto download all the apps and music I have purchased to my new iTunes. I want to sync my iPhone to my new computer, but I don't want to erase all the apps that are on there. However, when I log into my iTunes account, it doesn't seems to recognize and/or auto download all the stuff I've purchased in the past. Is there a way to make this happen? I tried transfering all my settings from my old Mac to the new one, but I am not having much luck with that at the moment. If anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate it greatly. Thanks for any info and have a great day.

Because it won't.
You need to copy the files from your old computer or from the backup you made to move to the new computer. -

Hi, Illiniboy67!
So that the Community can help you better, we will need to know exactly which operating system is running on the computer you're trying to connect to the scanner, and how it's connected (USB, ethernet, or wi-fi). That, and any other details you'd like to give will help the Community better understand your issue!

HT1329 IT SHOULD NOT BE THIS F&*^%$# HARD TO MOVE TO A NEW COMPUTER
Followed every step to move to a new computer and the instructions were so incredibly dense I think I flubbed a step. It tells you to drag the Itunes folder on the new computer to the desktop. I did that and then copied the itunes folder from the ipod as a disk to the desktop itunes file. This is where I think I went wrong. Unfortunately it took me awhile to figure this out and I already had deleted the created file from the ipod as disk. I moved the desktop file back to my music and now I believe I just have my files a little too deeply embedded in my music folder. I have two >itunes in my path. Is there a easy way to correct this without starting from scratch?
It is important to keep the "big picture" in mind when you do this procedure. The procedure covers ALL the possibilies, and many of them do not even apply to your situation.
Here's the big picture... When iTunes runs, it looks for the iTunes folder in your user account home folder. That iTunes folder is located in Music. On your old computer, you should have copied that iTunes folder (after doing the "consolidation" steps) to the iPod (which is being used like an external drive).
On your new computer, iTunes is using its iTunes folder. So, what you are doing is moving that existing iTunes folder "out of the way." (iTunes should not be running when you do this.) If you don't have any new songs on the new computer, you can just delete that iTunes folder. Now, copy the iTunes folder from the old computer (on the iPod) to that same location, to take the place of the new computer's iTunes folder. Now, when you run iTunes, it will find your iTunes folder from the old computer and use it. iTunes will look like iTunes running on the old computer.
So that's a summary of all of those low-level steps. (1) Make sure everything related to iTunes data on the old computer is in your iTunes folder. (2) Copy that iTunes folder to an external storage device. (3) Connect external storage device to new computer. (4) Replace existing iTunes folder on new computer, with the iTunes folder from the old computer.
