HT4527 how do you add an old device to a new computer?

 

You should have iTunes properly installed.  It has the drivers (AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi) for the Apple devices during iTunes installation.  Then you should be able to plug in.  If your device has its iTunes library on another computer, you may need to a reset/retry/restart/reinstall/restore cycle.

  • HT4527 how do you transfer iTunes ratings and plays to new computer

    I used home sharing to load all music to new computer, but ratings and play counts did not transfer over.
    Can you help?

    Your ratings, play counts, etc, are saved in the library database, which can be imported to iTunes on a new computer (or a new download of iTunes on the same computer, if necessary).
    The library database file is in the iTunes folder (I've never been able to open it from within iTunes).  If you stuck with the default installation settings, it should be in C/Documents and Settings/User/My Documents/My Music/iTunes.
    This file is simply a database of all your play counts, ratings, etc, and can be backed up to a memory stick, flash drive, or whatever.
    Then it can be imported to iTunes on a newly-authorized computer from File -> Import Library.
    (I'm assuming this will be a one-time-only procedure.  This doesn't work like syncing, and subsequent changes won't automatically transfer...)

  • How  do you deactivate an old device to add a new device?

    iTunes allows 5 devices to store and sync.  How do you deactivate an old device to add a new device

    Not true at all.
    You can sync as many devices to one library as you like.
    You can only authorize 5 computers to your itunes account.  This has nothing to do with ipod/iphone/ipad/Apple tv

  • My laptop was stolen. How do I sync my old iphone to a new computer without losing my purchases (music & apps)?

    My laptop was stolen. How do I sync my old iphone to a new computer without losing my purchases (music & apps)?

    One of the reasons to include your iTunes library with your computer's backup along with all other important data that is kept separate from your laptop - not carried in the same case, etc.
    iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iDevice, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
    First you need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
    If you are in the US, you can do this now as well.

    How do you transfer a large playlist to a new computer so that it stays in the same order?

    Hey HalSF,
    iTunes allows you to sync music with your devices in several different ways, including by playlist. See the iPhone user manual for how to -

  • HT1386 need to sync my old ipod with my new computer, How do I keep my old stuff on the new computer?

    How can I transfer stuff from my old Ipod to my new computer?

    Still did not work. I did everything listed. The program did not work as needed because it is only the free version and I should not have to pay for 3rd party software for something like this. Also, that article is outdated because windows 7 does not come with contacts software, but I managed to get it to work with a helpful post on another forum. Itunes still asked me to replace current iPod's data, I went ahead and clicked yes. I'll just go ahead and redownload all of my music and whatnot. Thanks anyway.
