HT1373 Why can't I transfer all the songs from iPad into iTune on my new Macbook Air?

I've recently purchased the new Mackbook Air 2013 model , OSX MT 10.8.4 , iTunes 11.0.5
And here's my problem, I connected my iPad to iTunes and thought all the songs
would be transfered automatically to iTunes library, but appearantly only haf of them did with iCloud icons next to the song's name.
Another thing that I noticed is that all the songs in the library are the ones I purchased on iPhone quite a while ago (I share iTunes account on both devices)
but for those recently I purchased on iPad are just not there.
So I'd like to ask you guys how to figure out this problem.
Many thanks.

It works, thank you so much

I lost my iPod touch and now have a new one. Is there a way to transfer all the songs on have in iTunes onto the new iPod?

I lost my iPod touch and bought a new one? Is there a way to transfer all the songs I have in iTunes onto the new iPod? I am scared I will lose it all when I sync the new one or that I have to start all over. Please help!!

You can do better than that. You can click on the Restore button that appears under your device in iTunes. This will restore your iPod to factory settings as if it were fresh out of the box. But don't worry. By doing a restore, you will then be given the option to "Restore from Backup." This will allow you to restore the state of your previous iPod!!

What is the best way to transfer my music library from my windows pc to my new macbook air?

what is the best way to transfer my large iTunes library from my windows pc to my new macbook air? Not all purchased, many from CDs I owned

Moving a library: Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its sub-folders and files) intact to the other drive. Hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) and open iTunes. At the prompt to create or choose a library choose the copied iTunes folder.
If this is to a new computer and you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

How can i transfer all the music from my old iphone to a new one

my iphone broke. i have a new one and im trying to get all the music from the old one to the new one. i dont wanna delete all the music on the old phone i just wanna like "Copy" it to the new phone but i dont know how thats why im asking for help.

I feel I've explained plenty what you must do but you aren't getting it.
All music on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Transfer the music from your iTunes library on your computer to your new iPhone in the same way it was transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone - via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
Since you prefer the manual way, you must manually drag and drop the same 377 songs from your iTunes library to your new iPhone - in the same way the 377 songs were manually transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone.
Or you can sync which provides more options overall. Create an iTunes playlist for the 377 songs. Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and choose selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Select the iTunes playlist below that includes the 377 songs followed by a sync.

I need to find out how to transfer all the music from my old IPOD to my new IPOD. Not all of my music was purchased on ITUNES.

I need to find out how to transfer all my music from my original IPOD nano to my new IPOD nano. I want to keep both and not all of my music was purchased on ITUNES. Please help!

Your music should be in your iTunes library, that is how it gets synced to the iPod. If that music is not present in the iTunes library, you will need to get a 3rd party software for the computer to get the music off the original iPod and then move it to the iTunes library to be able to sync it to the new iPod. You can see some additional information in this tip supplied by a fellow user. Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

HT4913 How do you then download all the songs from icloud to itunes? I have over 2000 songs and don't fancy clicking one at a time..

as above.
Thanks for all the help in advance!

On your PC, create a playlist called something like "Touch"
Add everything you want to download to your touch to the playlist.
Wait a minute or two and then open the music App on your touch.
Find the playlist and scroll to the bottom.
Click "Download All"

HT3887 why oh why can I not transfer my own photos from my own iPhone to my own macbook pro via bluetooth? This is so antiquated!

I have an iphone that I use to take pics and just wondered why don't Iuse bluetooth instead of plugging it in each time...only to find apple won't let us do this. Is this still true? Seems like madness and a good reason to change...

I have tried bump but it insists on location recognition before it will work properly. Maybe I am paranoid but I think they have enough info about me already....
I shall keep looking.
Thanks guys for all your input.

Can you move all songs from external into itunes for a new comp?

I'm trying to get my whole library moved from an old computer onto the new computer. If i copy everything into the external drive, can I just copy it from the external into the itunes folders on the new computer? If so..which files should i be copying and where do I put them?

Jade did you get this worked out? My internal hardrive crashed so I lost all of itunes. But I have all my music copied on an external HD.

How can I get the songs from my iPod on to my new iTunes library?!! Help!!

So I've looked on all the support pages but I've got a feeling there is nothing that can be done with this, hopefully someone can help!
We moved to the US and while our computer was being sent over it got water damaged so I lost all of my itunes library. And I didnt back it up properly. So I want to know if there is anyway to transfer all the songs from my ipod onto our new itunes library, or if i can somehow get my ipod songs on to disc and then import them?? I really don't want to lose all my songs, so if anyone can help I'd be very grateful!!

Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

Why has iTunes seperated a album which I have copied over from my external hard drive into iTunes? How can you pull all the songs back together into one album again?

Quick answer: Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields. If they are not a multiple CD set you still need to make sure the disc number fields are set correctly or all empty.
