HT1296 how do I transfer my music in itunes from my macBook to my new iPad?

I have a new ipad an I am trying to transfer my music in itunes to it and having no luck. I need help with this

I copied this from the iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod kb article. It may help to see the screenshots which are on the website, but I did not copy here. The website is posted at the bottom of my response.
This applies to the iPod, iPhone or iPad. If you are using iTunes 11 - enable the sidebar by going to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu at the top.
If you want iTunes to update your music, videos, or podcasts whenever you connect your device, sync automatically. Whenever iTunes is open and your device is connected using the USB to Dock Connector cable, iTunes will sync.
Syncing music
Connect your iPod to your computer and open iTunes.
Select your your iPod in the Devices section on the left side of the iTunes window.
In the main iTunes browser window, select Music.
Select the option to Sync Music. You may also select "Include Music videos" if you would like to sync Music videos to a device.
Your device will need to have enough free space to sync the content that you have selected from your library.
Tip: You can use the capacity bar at the bottom of the device-settings window to determine how much free space is available. You can determine content size by selecting it and looking at the bottom of the iTunes window.
Click Apply and iTunes will begin syncing the audio content you've selected to your device. The iTunes LCD will display the sync progress and notify you when the sync is complete.
To disconnect your device, select it under Devices and click the eject icon next to it.

  • How do I transfer my contacts and photos from my iphone to my new ipad please?

    I've tried to transfer my photos and contacts list from my iphone 3gs to my new ipad, and they're on the ipad but no longer on my phone. Does anyone know how I can get them back and have them on both devices please?

    Easiest is to:

    Otherwise you will have to sync the new iPod's calendar and contacts to ones that have the old iPod's calendars and contacts.

  • How do I transfer my music and apps from my ipod touch 4g to a new computer?

    The hard drive on my old computer failed so I no longer have access to my itunes library that was saved onto that computer. Is there anyway I can transfer my music and apps to my new computer? I would prefer not using one of those shady online tools... I don't want to lose any of my music or apps since I have some paid ones on there. I'm afraid that if I connect it to the new computer then everything will be lost. If that happens the I'll never be able to get any of my music and apps back (or at least it'll be real difficult). Can anyone please please please help me?

    If you sign in to your Apple ID then your apps will be visible by clicking the "purchased" tab at the bottom of the screen.
    Music you've purchased from Apple will appear automatically if you sign in to your account. Other music you'll need to download from your PC assuming you're not subscribed to iTunes Match.

    Authorize your new computer's iTunes first - Store>Authorize this computer.
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.

    You'll need to copy the music from the old iPod back to iTunes first before you can transfer it to your new iPod. See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

  • How do i transfer all my ipod songs from my ipod to my new computer?

    how do i transfer all my ipod songs from my ipod to my new computer?
    i stil have my old computer. but i have 500 songs. so i dont want to burn them onto cds then upload them. is there a way to transfer the songs from the ipod to my new computer?

    Hey, I had the exact same issue. The way that Apple explains to do it is change your iPod into hardrive mode by messing with the preferences. While your iPod is hooked up to your old compuer, go into preferences and check the box saying enable disk use. Then your iPod will appear on the desktop and you can drag the song files into it. I don't know if you can transfer them all at once or not. Anyway, then you hook up the iPod into the new computer and drag the songs into iTunes. I had trouble doing this and it erased all my songs one time but I think it was an error on my part. Another way to do it is to send the song files through AIM. Have someone on the old computer and you on the new one and send them in large bunches to the new computer. Yet another way is to e-mail them to yourself and download them on to the new computer. The sure-fire way (and the way I finally succumbed to but it worked!) is to download the program iPodCopy on the new computer and follow the instructions to have your music quickly and easily copied. It does cost $17.00 dollars to download but I was willing to pay the price to have my music transferred hassle-free. Just type iPodCopy into google and it should come up. After months of trying and searching how to transfer my music to the new computer, this was my last resort and it was well worth it!
    I hope my suggestions help you out in your iPod escapades!
    Let me know if they work. Buenas Suerte.

  • TS2972 How do you move your music within itunes from your regular library to the homeshares library so that you can import it to your new computer?

    How do you move your music within itunes from your regular library to the homeshares library so that you can import it to your new computer?

    You do not have to move it as such. Here are the steps to setup HomeSharing
    1) Ctrl B to turn on the top menu
    2) File > Home Sharing > Create Home Share enter your apple id and password, click create
    3) repeat steps 1 and 2 for the other computer and create home share using the same apple id and password
    On your new machine if you have turned on the left hand sidebar the Shared Library should be about halfway down like this.
    Select the songs you want and click import at the bottom right. If you want all songs then I would select one song nad Ctrl A to select all
    Finally if you have a lot of songs to transfer Switch off the wifi on the old computer. Leave the wifi on the new one. Connect with an ehternet network cable. The copying speed is way faster.
    Click import and grab a coffee
