How to move music from PC to Mac

Network
Flashdrive
DVD
External drive
Email
File transfer site
Take your pick. You have several choices. The easiest, if your computers are networked, would be to drag and drop between the computers. Otherwise copying the files to a thumb drive or DVD then taking the thumb drive or DVD to the other computer is probably easiest. Although you could just upload the files to an online file transer site then download them to the other computer.

How to move music from pc to mac book pro

I just bought a macbook pro for school. I have a large number of music files on my pc. I copied all the file to my mac book and then fired up itunes and scanned for media. It seems that itunes is making a second copy and putting them somewhere and my hard drive runs out of space. I guess I don't know how to work the macbook yet. Can someone giveme advise to get my macbook itunes to just recognize themusic files and import them to itunes?

There is a iTunes Library in your Music folder and yes iTunes is organizing them utilizing copies of your originals.
Since things are messed up and your just starting out, you can go ahead and click and drag the iTunes Library to the Trash can and from the Finder menu > Empty Trash.
Now place your PC music files on a external drive where there is enough room, (perhaps a copy is already there?)
Delete the copy of files from the PC drive if they are on your Mac's drive, this way you have enough room.
Your basically starting over again with one copy of the files on the external drive.
Now restart iTunes and it will create another iTunes Library blank as before, now head to the iTunes menu or import the music from the external drive.
Now it will copy them and organize them into folders according to artist/album get artwork, etc., with tags etc. provided your logged into iTunes and online into the iTunes Library.
Remmember with Mac's, just like Windows, you need ot unmount the drive first before physically disconnecting, with OS X you simply drag the external drive icon to the Trash can, which turns into a Eject button.
Or you can select the drive and press the eject key, or the eject arrow in the Finder window on the left side.

How to transfer music from PC to Mac?

I'm trying to transfer music from my PC to my MacBook Pro before college. I have a wireless network set up that I could use to copy my music, but that has just been copying files. I also want to transfer my playlists, though, so that I don't have to make them all over again. I read on the Apple web site that you can use your iPod as a hard disk to do this, but I'm not sure if this will work between PC and Mac because it is formatted for my PC. If this is possible, could someone tell me how to go about it? Or suggest another way to get my playlists onto my Mac?

If you already have your music over and just want to get the normal (non-smart) playlists over, you can also go to PC and export the playlist to a file ("File" > "Library" > "Export Playlist...") and then import that into iTunes on the Mac.

HOw to Move music from one iPod to a New iPod

Hi
Two questions actually;
1) My wife wants an iPod, and wants hers to have all the same music as mine, is that possible?
If not
2) Our current iPod is only 30G and I want to upgrade to a 120G. I have not been able to find any info about how to move all the songs to my new iPod.
I tried searching this site but a lot of unrelated 'stuff' comes up.
Thanx.

If you're both syncing from the same computer, on the same user account this will be incredibly easy. Just plug the iPod in, and it will automatically sync with the library, just make sure the preferences are alright.
If the songs are all on the computer, merely plugging in your new one and syncing will transfer all the songs.

How to move music from an apple id to a new appe id

How do I move my daughters music from my apple id as she is now old enough to have her own apple Id???? Thanks

You cannot move purchases from one ID to another. If you have protected content you wish her to have then you can authorize her computer for your purchases. Shouldn't be an issue with music. It becomes more complicated as families try to share and update apps bought over multiple IDs.

There was a problem on my mac so went to the Apple store. They said the only solution was to erase all the data and start over. But I didn't get to back up my data so I don't have my music anywhere except on my iPhone. So is there a way to transfer music from my iPhone to my Mac iTunes?

How to move music from one computer to another using flashdrive

My desktop died (can only work in windows safe mode). I have a lot of music uploaded on it and copied to a flash drive. How do I get the music from the flashdrive onto iTunes?

Drag it onto the new computer's internal drive, and from there into the open iTunes application window.
