How to upload new songs while not wanting to synchronise?!?!! help!!!

i have an iPhone 3G and have had it for a little while now. I used to have a pc and uploaded songs from my pc to my iPhone. Now i changed from that PC to a laptop and just downloaded a new iTunes because i want to add some new songs. iTunes asks to synchronise my iPhone, which means (as far as i know) delete all the songs already on the iPhone and put the ones on the iPhone which you have in iTunes. I do want to keep the songs i already have on my iPhone but i also want new songs!! Any ideas of how i can put new songs from my laptop to my iPhone without synchronising????????!!!
help would be appreciated since it's kind of starting to annoy me now..
thanks already

I have the same problem. I purchased a new computer apple gives u this thing where it can authorize the computer but wont allow you to use the music from your itunes #1 to put on itunes#2. I contacted apple support and was informed that it could be done yet he couldnt tell me b/c it wasnt supported by apple. He said it was via some third party company that it could be done and told me to come to this forum in hopes someone posted it. He also told me to try and google the answer and one final and last resort was to export the music from itunes #1 and place on a disk and upload that music to itune#2. Oh well not gonna work for me for my hard drive to itunes#1 is 300 miles away.
It's kinda strange that there was a situation where we could have put all this music on itunes#1 with the same phone not be able to be loaded onto a nother comupter what a waste!!!

    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync the music to your iPod?

    Do they play in iTunes on the computer?

  • Cant upload new songs in iTunes from new computer onto iPhone 3gs

    How do I upload new songs in my new iTunes from my mac to my iphone 3gs WITHOUT deleting or replacing all the old songs? My old computer crashed and I have no way of accessing those old songs but I dont want to loose all 509 songs. some were burnt from CDs i no longer have some were purchased through iTunes etc...help please! i really like my old music and just want to update it.

    By 'rebooted' do you mean that you only rebooted it, or that you reinstalled its software ?
    If rebooted then aare the songs still on your computer, just not in iTunes - by default your iTunes library is stored under :
    Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\
    Windows Vista: \Users\username\Music\iTunes
    Windows 7 and Windows 8: \Users\username\My Music\iTunes
    If it's there then File > Add To Library in iTunes should let you add it back.
    If not then you should be able to copy iTunes purchases (including apps, films etc) back from your phone via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.
    For non-iTunes purchases (and for purchases if need be) there are some programs listed half-way down this page which can copy them back : Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
    Then add them to iTunes via File > Add To Library
    If iTunes thinks that you are trying to sync the phone to a new computer : Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

  • How to upload a song from the i phone to itunes match

    how to upload a song from the i phone to itunes match

    Hi Chandrapp,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that you want to upload a song from your iPhone to iTunes Match. Local songs on your iPhone will not be uploaded to iCloud, you will need to transfer that song into your iTunes Library on your computer and upload it to the iCloud from there. The information can be found in the following article.
    iTunes Store: Subscribing to iTunes Match
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4914
    When you subscribe to iTunes Match from an iOS device, your local tracks will not be matched or uploaded to iCloud. You will need to sign in with your Apple ID from a computer in order to match and upload your local music library.
    Hope this helps, 
    -Joe

  • 2gig Ipod won't upload new songs

    Accidentally washed Nano the other day. Everything works besides Syncing and Uploading new songs. Any ideas would help. Computer/Itunes won't recognize Nano during initial startup. Itunes works 100%.
    L.T.

    How long did you let it dry? If it wasn't 5-7 days it still may have some moisture in it and if you attempted to charge it there may have been some battery/logic board damage.

  • Can't upload new songs

    Whenever I attempt to update my iTunes Match, I get the following message:
    New songs could not be uploaded.
    iCloud can contain up to 25000 songs not purchased from the iTunes Store. Recent additions to this computer exceed that limit, and will not be uploaded.
    My iTunes library does indeed exceed 25,000 songs: it currently stands at 25,012. However, my understanding is that iTunes Match does not count any songs purchased from the iTunes Store in this total - and I have 466 songs in Purchased. That means, by my reckoning, I should be able to add another 454 songs from non-iTunes Store sources (CDs, Amazon, etc).
    When I first encountered this problem a few weeks' ago, I deleted a number of songs from my Library and was at one point below 25,000 songs. But whenever I tried to update iTunes Match, I had the same message.
    I've done all the usual things - rebooted machine, restarted iTunes, etc - but to no avail.
    Can anyone help or suggest any fixes?
    Many thanks

    Hi,
    I had a similar problem.
    I had to sign out of match and when I signed back in I Go the exceeded limit.
    I took drastic action and deleted several thousand track. I created a second blank library and then deleted the tracks from the cloud. By doing it this way, the tracks remain in my original library and keep all relevant metadata, play counts etc. the iCloud status for those tracks are "removed" and are ignored for the purposes of match.
    I ran match successfully but I discovered that match had duplicated around 1500 tracks, the download cloud symbol was shown against the duplicates. This extra 1500 now explained the reason for exceeding limit.
    I deleted the duplicates and readded the removed tracks. Match remembers that the tracks were previously matched or uploaded, so the process to readd was very quick.

  • Playlist changed order (and I did nothing!).  And now I can't move items, either!  I have new songs that I want to put on my Nano, but I am afraid to sync.  Help!  Thanks.

    I just logged into iTunes on my MacBook Pro and my favority playlist changed the order of the songs (and I did nothing!).  I did not click any columns to sort differently or anything along those lines.  In addition, I added some songs and moved them from Recently Added to this Playlist, but they won't move (well, I can drag them to where I want them, but they don't stay there!).  I have new songs that I want to put on my Nano (and other non-Apple device players), but I am afraid to sync.  Help!  Thanks.

    What exactly happens when you try to sync?
    Does iTunes see the iPod?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?                                            
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Did you update the iOS via iTunes? Directly on the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • I have a new computer and have downloaded some new CD's to my music Library.  When synching the new songs will not download even though there is abundant room on the Ipod and the new songs are checked.  Could this be a Windows 8 issue?

    Your post isn't clear.
    What does "i reset my account" mean? What account?
    "couldn't retrieve it". What is "it"?
    What method are you using to transfer songs to the iPod, and what happens when you try?
    The more info you give, the better we can help.

  • I just bought a mac mini over the weekend. I saved items from my old G4 to an external hard drive. I go to plug in the external hard drive and the new computer is not recognizing it. Help.

    I just bought a mac mini over the weekend. I saved items from my old G4 to an external hard drive. I go to plug in the external hard drive and the new computer is not recognizing it. Help.
    Here is the information I have. The external hard drive is a 120GB Acomdata. It has both USB and Firewire. When I go to plug in to the mac mini through USB, it is not being recognized. When I switch to Firewire on the old computer I can see it, however when I go to USB it is not being recognized (even on the old computer).
    I'm at a loss as to what to do. Any advice would be helpful.

    Have you ever tried the FW 400 to 800 adapter?
    I have used them on multiple occasions and they work just fine.
    Try this (maybe you already have):
    -Boot Mini with drive disconnected.
    -Do not connect drive but turn it on
    -wait a few seconds for drive to spin up
    -plug cable into the Mini then into drive.
    This is an old drive and may have some timing
    issues.
    I had an Acomdata drive a long time ago.  It
    worked fine with FW but USB was flakey.
