HT1920 itunes library on dead laptop.

Long story short. Son had full amount of devices being used and now after his/my laptop went dead awhile back i made my own account. But wanted to know how to access my old library if possible.

You may be able to redownload some/all of your past purchases (you won't be able to download your own music e.g. copied from CDs unless you had subscribed to iTunes Match and uploaded it to it) via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes - what you can redownload will depend upon what country that you are in (music, films, tv programmes can't be redownloaded in all ; audiobooks and ringtones are one-time only downloads) and whether the item is still in your country's store (content providers occasionally remove things).

    I am a new iPad user and have transferred my iTunes library from my laptop. How do I sync my iPod touch with my ipad

    You don't.  You synch your iPod to your computer.  There's no way to synch from iPad to iPod.  You can tranfer the same playlists to your iPod from the computer.

    How can I download a previously downloaded purchase to my iTunes library on my laptop when the listing for the song in my library won't play because it says it cannot locate the file. Yes I have searched my iTunes folders and also done a full windows search. The track plays on my iPad and my iPhones but will not play on my laptop!?
    It has an "!" To the left of the song title in my library
    My worry is that if I sync my iPad/iPhone then I will lose the track on those also!

    If you cannot find the file on your hard drive then once you delete the current broken entry you should be able to redownload from iTunes in the Cloud. This assumes the item in question qualifies. Note that audiobooks, digital booklets, iTunes LPs & Extras, ringtones, selected movies etc. don't.
    If prompted don't hide the item. You may find that you need to close and then reopen iTunes before it will appear for download.

  • Can't find my iTunes library on my laptop.

    Can't find iTunes library on my laptop. Daughter's library is there, but mine doesn't seem to be. When I plugged my ipod in, got a message indicatng my ipod was synced to another library and asking if I wanted to erase it and sync with this one.  Can 2 iTunes libraries be stored on the same laptop? (I'm not tech savvy - appreciate any help offered.)

    Is this the computer the device was syncing with previously?
    If not, where is that library?  The library will only be where the user puts it.
    Syncing is one way, computer to iDevice.
    Multiple libraries can be stored on a single computer... if that's what you really want.

    - Transfer iTunes purchases:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    newer copy
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup
    Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.

Is there any way possible I dont have to erase my music? So frustrating.

    Yes. I have no personal experience with this, but it is possible to recover your music from an iPod. See this link: http://guides.macrumors.com/Recovering_Songs_from_an_iPod

  • How can I get iTunes library on my laptop to play all downloaded songs/videos?

    Not all my songs/videos play in the iTunes library on my laptop.  I also have songs on an iPod and and iPod shuffle, and made a separate playlist for my iPhone and iPad.  How can I listen to all my downloaded songs on my laptop again?

    You can't; iTunes doesn't have the code necessary to play DVDs, not even ones you created.

  • Can I merge my daughters iTunes library from her laptop into mine on my iMac?

    Can I merge my daughters iTunes library from her laptop into mine on my iMac?

    Physically merge? Yes.
    All you need to do is move the files into your Library folder.
    Adding the playlists to your Mac is something else.

    my old pc broke, is there any way i can transfer my itunes library to new laptop

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything on the new computer.
    If for some reason you have failed to backup, then you can redownload itunes purchases in some countries:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Iphone 4 is having trouble syncing with iTunes. I keep getting a message sayign the phone is linked to a different itunes library. my old laptop was stolen, is that the problem? how do i solve it?

    Hi,
    my iphone 4 was originally linked to my itunes library via my old laptop which just got stolen. I have brought a new laptop and authorised it - so now i can see my itunes library on it, but when i plug in my i phone it says that it is registered to a different library and that if i sync i will loose everything. How do i solve this problem? is it beacuse i'm using a new laptop, or something else?
    The big thing for me is that i can not loose my contacts, diary etc information. When the error message comes up it says erasing and syncing will clear the phone - does that mean EVERYTHING, or just music and apps? if just music and apps i can live with that because i don't have any music on there yet and the apps i guess i could buy again if they aren't backed up.
    My iphone is running on v 4, and the macair is brand new - so maybe there is a software problem? i have tried to update the version on my phone but agian i get a message saying that i will loose data if i proceed so i want to make sure everything is backed up and synced before i go ahead with that.
    Thanks guys

    Check your mac's Serial Number.
    Some people have problems with missing serial numbers on their Macs and that's the message you get when this happens.
    Click on the Apple at the top left of the screen, open "About this Mac" and click on "More Info". You should see a list with information about your Macbook Air. Check that on the Serial Number field you have your Mac's Serial. If you have "SystemSerial#" written instead then that's your problem.
    You can re-enter your serial number if you have a USB CD drive, it's not very straightforward but I can walk you through it if you need it.
    Cheers
