HT1386 How do I sync library on new computer with old iPhone

When I bought my iPhone, I was required by my company to sync with my work computer.  Of course, by iTunes library is on my home computer.
I am no longer with the company so I do not have access to that computer.  Now I want to sync my iPhone with my home computer so I can have my songs on the iPhone.  I have not figured out how to do that.  Is it simply a matter of resetting the iPhone?  Any other way?  Help is appreciated!  Thanks.

  • How to transfer account/library to new computer after old one died?

    My 4 year old Windows XP computer had a meltdown last weekend and the hard drive was re-set to original factory status - erasing tons of programs, data, settings etc that had accumulated over the years. Fortunately I have much of the C-Drive backed up and most data was moved some time ago to a network drive so all 4 of our household computers can access the same data. But some data, like Itunes and Outlook Calendar are stored by default on the C drive. I started restoring programs but concluded the computer still had stability issues and since I was overdue for a new one, got a new Windows 7 model. I still have the old one and it sort of works so I can copy files from it to the new one if needed. My Ipod Touch was synched recently and it is super valuable because i had a lot of info in my old computer's Outlook Calendar that I assume was also lost, but it is on my Ipod. How can I synch it safely onto the now bare Outlook on my new computer? Will the blank outlook synch my Ipod to blank? Can I rescue my 2500 song library and thousands of contacts?
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    ... Anyway, all of my iTunes library on that machine is lost I suppose. I didn't have it synced to my phone at the time due to space issues, so I don't have a copy of the library anywhere except in a Time Machine backup. I don't want to restore this new MBA with the entire backup, only the iTunes library. Is it possible? Or can I just re-download the songs since this new iTunes account is set up in the same Apple ID?
    Your iTunes Library is unrelated to your logic board, however, you will need to "authorize" your computer to play your iTunes purchased content since iTunes considers a new logic board a completely new computer (which it is).
    If for some reason your iTunes Library was lost, of course you can restore it from Time Machine. You can also re-download your iTunes purchased music again since it is all linked to your Apple ID.
    You won't be charged for what you already bought.

  • My computer died how do I sync to a new computer with out it deleting my music.  Every thing is on my Ipod still just can get it out.

    Wow my computer has died all my music, pics and vids are on my Ipod touch.  But it is synced to the dead computer.  In order to sync with the new computer it is going to delete all my stuff on my Ipod.  Is there a way arround this so can restore my library to my new computer.

    - Transfer iTunes purchased items by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - For other items you need a third-party program like one of thos discussed here:
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    The good ones are paid.  And to do more than music, like synced photos, usually cost.  There is also:
    TouchCopy
    Phoneview
    iPhone Explorer
    - After you transfer all the stuff, connect the iPod to the computer and right click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes an select Back Up.
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.

  • How do I get entire library onto new computer without old ipod (stolen) or old computer (died)? When I plugged in my new ipod 5th gen, it only synced purchases.

    How do I get entire library onto new computer without old ipod (stolen) or old computer (died)?  I just bought an ipod 5th gen and when I plugged it in, it only synced purchases.

    You restore the media to your new computer using the backup you made of your old computer before it died. You did backup your computer, right?

  • My ipod (nano, 6th generation) won't sync to a new computer with different stuff on it. It *appears* to sync but when it's done it still has the stuff from the other computer on it. What to do?

    My ipod (nano, 6th generation) won't sync to a new computer with different stuff on it. Itunes on the new computer doesn't give the usual warning that you are about to lose all your existing stuff and the ipod *appears* to sync but when it's done it still has the stuff from the other computer on it. What to do?

  • Am I able to sync to a new computer without losing iPhone backup?

    My situation: My old computer crashed, and now I have a new computer with iTunes, but my phone is not synced with it. I have transferred all of my purchases to it. And I used the "Back up" option available in iTunes when the phone is connected.
    My question: Am I able to re-sync to this new computer without losing all the things saved in a back-up, such as contacts, calendars, notes, text messages, and settings? I don't care about the music, photos, etc..
    My original plan was to back it up, by right clicking it in the iTunes left panel, then sync it, then restore from back up. But I am not sure whether I will be able to restore from back-up after I resync it and erase everthing.
    Can anybody help with this issue? Step by steps are helpful
    Thanks,
    Blair

    PLEASE HELP! So to reiterate, when I go to sync my iPhone tothis new iTunes library I get the message:
    “The iPhone “XXXX” is synced withanother iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with thisiTunes library?
    An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing andsyncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTuneslibrary.”
    So will I be able to sync it like this and then restore my contacts,calendars, notes, text messages, and settings that backed up by right clickingthe iPhone in the iTunes panel? I just can’t afford to lose that data.
    PLEASE HELP!
    Thanks

  • How to transfer Garage Band to new computer with all selfmade stuff

    I just got myself a new macbook pro with of course garage band preinstalled.
    I transfered all my .band projects from my old macbook and the loops i made too.
    i put the loops in the same directory as they were on my old macbook hd/library/audio/apple loops/user loops/ but garage band didn't find them so i manually mooved them into the loop browser in garage band.
    only problem: i have to mark them all as favorites again and whenever i open an old .band project for the first time gb has to search for each one again.
    can you tell me how to do it better next time?
    but now to the more important and current problem:
    where do i find my selfmade software instruments on my old macbook and where do i have to put them on my new one?
    and is there anything else i might need from my old gb that i didn't think of?
    thanks,
    paul

    The best way would have been to use the Migration Assistant - it would have moved your whole user folder and your personal stuff over to the new computer.
    About the instruments: There could be two Instrument Library folders, under HD/Library/Application Support/GarageBand and User/Library/Application Support/GarageBand (depending on whether you made the instruments available to all users.) If the other GB is a standard installation of the same version, you can just replace the folders on the new computer with the ones from the old machine, and all your instruments should be there. (The "if" refers to the fact that by doing this you lose all custom instruments you might have made on the new computer.)

  • How to set up bundle on new computer with SSD and 2 TB harddrive?

    I bought a new computer with a 120 GB SSD and a 2TB datadrive. I have 16 GB RAM and am runnung windows 7 home edition (64-bit operating system). I just have my OS on the SSD which now only has 75.2 GB free. I searched on line and tweaked the SSD to get the most space. From what I've read many suggest putting all your programs on the SSD (which I think will fill up very fast) and just using the Datadrive for pictures, files etc. I'm thinking that maybe some should be loaded on the datadrive and maybe the one that need it could be put on the C: SSD. I have no idea!! Looking for advice. I bought the Production Premium bundle. Thanks for any help!

    Addendum: I tried all of the suggestions on the Firefox web site, but they do not match the options available on 16. There is not "Manage Account" option that I can find on 16.

  • Old Computer Died. Set up new computer with old WRT54G

    Hi,
      what is the easiest / best way to get up and running with my new computer(The old one died). The old WRT54 router is working fine and is up and running as always.
    Do i need to change the router settings or install any software on the new machine?
    Also earlier the router was configured with WEP security. If I were to upgrade to WPA, what would i need to do.
    thanks much,
    Sam.

    hi sam,
     if the router is up and running, no need for you to reinstall or reconfigure the router. As long as you can go online when new pc is connected to it, no worries...it will work fine...If you want to change the encryption from wep to wpa, just go to the website, www.linksys.com/kb and search for the answer id 2651...
