HT2729 Steps to transfer music from flash drive into iTunes library.

What are the steps to transfer music from a jump drive into iTunes library? I am not finding where to drag a song off my jump drive and onto my iPhone.

You can't drag it from a jump drive to your phone. You can drag it from a jump drive to iTunes on your computer then sync your iPhone.

  • What is the easiest way to transfer music from my ex's itunes library to mine? We both have Macbooks and we do have home sharing.

    Over the years my ex's and I bought tons of music off itunes, but always bought it on her Macbook. Now that we aren't together I want to copy all of the music from her itunes library and import it into mine. Is this possible, and what is the easiest way?
    Many Thanks

    the simplest way, assuming all your media files are in the default location, would be to connect the two Macs with a firewire cable, boot the source Mac in Target Disk Mode, and copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music folder) from <MacintoshHD>/users/yourname/music on the source to <MacintoshHD>/users/yourname/music on the target (overwriting the iTunes folder in place there).
    that would ensure everything (including playcounts, ratings, original "date added", which home sharing doesn't copy over) will be transferred. it would also ensure that any mobile devices (iPhone, etc.) will simply keep on syncing without problems.
    you can also use an external HD (or your LAN) but make sure to copy the entire iTunes folder.

  • How do I transfer music from Sony MP3 into itunes

    I have had an old sony MP3 which died and got an Ipod Touch for xmas. I have read the instructions on how to install music from computer into Itunes but it is not working.
    Any ideas

    Hi Tracey.
    One of the simplest methods of importing existing music files into iTunes is to open iTunes, and use the File | Import... menu option. You can then browse to where your music is currently stored, and select the entire folder, or individual files. iTunes will then inspect these files, copy them into the iTunes library, and then report any problems or issues encountered.
    Can you tell us where the process of getting your existing MP3s into iTunes seems to be falling down?

  • How do I transfer music from my IPhone to itunes library?

    I recently bought a macbook pro. how do i copy the music off my phone and onto my empty itunes library?

    It would be better to simply copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from your old computer to /Music/ on your new computer (along wiht copying all your other user data from old to new computer).
    To copy from iPhone, see this -> Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device

  • How do I get my music from my iphone into itunes library

    I have tried everything I can see to get my music from my iphone to my itunes library?
    I've just got a new iphone 4 and want all my music put onto my new phone but again I don't know what else to do.

    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases
    Everything should be on your computer, just sync it to the new iphone.

  • Transferring music from flash drive

    My old laptop died but luckily my hard drive was intact so I was able to transfer my itunes to a flash drive. Now that I have a new computer, how do i transfer music from flash drive to itunes on my new computer (windows)?

    Drag and drop.
    When I moved music from my old to new computer I just dragged the files into the 'my music' folder on my computer. Then did have to import the folder into iTunes.
    If you have a lot of playlists etc, I believe there is another way that'll preserve more of that info. I'm not familiar with it since I don't use the playlist feature.

  • Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5?

    Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5? My iMatch is turned on and I can direct downlad my music to the iPhone from the Cloud; however, I want to direct import All of my music from iTunes to my iPhone 5 via the connecting USB cable and it is not working. Yes, I have tried restarting both devices, and no autosync is not working nor is is it providing the avaialbile option to select music in iTunes on my Mac to then sync. Please help. Thanks

    Please disregard. I figured it out. Answer for anyone else running into this problem: You have to turn off iTunes Match on both devices. Apparently, if you activate iTunes Match it deactivates your abiltiy to direct sync.

  • HT204406 How do you transfer music from your ipod to itunes match?

    How do you transfer music from your ipod to itunes match? I recently bought itunes match and it wont allow me to add songs from my ipod to the music library and match. Before I bought it, it would not allow me to transfer it either. After my purchase, I thought it would solve the problem but it did not. Any solutions?

    You can't do it from an iPod, you can only do it from your computer's iTunes

    I have a different problem, perhaps someone can help.
    My friends music library is on a hard drive, I can move songs to my library, they play fine on my computer.....However, when I try to move them to my i-phone, they turn to a light grey color and will not play on my phone.  They also have a circle with dots in front of the song.
    Some security limitation apparently, just trying to over-ride.
    Song format is .m4a
