HT4527 I just want my music back. My computer crashed, so I formatted the HD. Now I cant migrate my music from my phone to my new desktop...No, I don't continually back up my Itunes.
How do I get my music off of my phone and onto a new desktop...Without my old computer?

What is the best/safest way to transfer contacts/data from old phones (5) to new (6 and 6 ). I did "back up to this computer" for both phones. After activation (verizon) do I just plug into iTunes? One of the old phones is still using iOS 7, will that be a problem? (the other has iOS 8.1).
The following has instructions on how to transfer to a new iPhone using either iCloud or iTunes: Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support

hey i had my iphone synced to my laptop then i formated the laptop , now i cant sync it back . please helppp
What do you mean you can't sync it back?
Media syncs one way. Computer>Phone, with the exception of purchased items.
File>Transfer purchases in iTunes. You're going to have to set it up as a new device then sync everything back from your iTunes library. You did backup your laptop before you formatted it, right? -
I need help please! My computer crashed lost all data including my music. Want to sync music from my ipad and/or iphone but it is not working. What could be the problem how do I tackle it?
Syncing only works from your computer to your iPad/iPhone, not the other way around. So you can only transfer your purchased music from the iPhone to your computer.

My computer crashed lost all data including my music.
How bad was the crash? Had the drive to be replaced? Or is there a possibility to use data recovery software on that drive? -

please someone helpHi Glenn,
You need to Authorize your Mom's computer to your iTunes sign on. Sign on to iTunes, then go to Store at the top of the screen, and select Authorize this Computer.
Then you can download your purchases from your iTunes library by going to the iTunes Store (the one in the sidebar), Music, and then under Quick Links, Purchased.
Once the Purchased window comes up, select "Not on this Computer", and then select All Songs. Your purchased songs will display with a cloud next to them, and you can download them selectively or "Download All" (lower right-hand corner).
Hope this helps!
Cheers,

After updating to ios 8 through itunes, I lost my music and now I cant transfer some music from itunes (macbook pro) to my iphone 4s back. Any idea how can I do that?
After posting this, I've since found out that my iOS iTunes App on my iPhone 6 Plus works all OK when on WiFi, it just won't work when on the data/3/4G connection.
Anybody else having this same issue since updating to iOS 8.3? -
My computer crashed and I lost everything. How do I get my music from my I-phone 4S back on itunes?
That's what backups are for. Use Time Machine. It's free and external drives are cheap. To recover your iPhone's content requires the use of third party utilities. Success is not guaranteed. Read:

I lost purchased music on my computer that was purchased in the last 4 to 5 months because of virus. I did not back up the few songs I purchased on cd. I also lost all data on my Ipod nano and had to restore it. How do I download these purchases I lost?
Go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. From there you should be able to re-download some or all of your purchased content. Note that not all content has been licensed for re-downloading in all countries at this time; you can see what content you can download here:

You can also re-download content using an iOS device.
For more information, see:

This if course will not apply to songs you did not buy through the iTunes Store.
Regards.

I recently bought a new i phone 4 as my other one had seen beter days and for the last sevral days have been trying to transfer my photos ect from my old phone to my new one after I've plugged my old iPhone into iTunes to back it up i then plug in my one to transfer it over I've had no luck I've tryed restoring my new phone to the last time i backed up my old files the phone restores but always to its own backup point wen i first connected it to iTunes can anyone help me please?
Since this is the second computer you've had this problem with, I recommend you look for answers on the iPhone forum. My thinking is it is an iPhone issue rather than a computer issue (unless it is some software incompatibility).

I backed up my iphone, then did an update and now I have no contacts, music or apps. How do I get them back?
Try logging into icloud.comwith you're apple id and see if you're contacts are there.
Hope this helps -
I have been sharing my iTunes account with my kids...now they are getting older and want to have their own accounts, how do I share the songs I purchased for them on my account with them on their new accounts? Is there a way to transer from my main account their new accounts? And can I share music from my account with them?
You can't currently transfer content from one account to another account. As long as the tracks are on the computer's iTunes that they use/sync to, and your account is authorised on that iTunes, then they should be able to continue to use them.

My computer crashed, a virus ate the data on my hard drive. Replaced the hard drive but library lost. Ipod has music on it and I would like to transfer it back to the computer without losing any of it. How is this possible?
Just install it on your new computer and activate it with your serial number.
If you have too many activatins, Contact Adobe Customer Care. -
The iCloud was never verified therefore never backing up anything on my iphone 4s because it was the wrong email and now I'm trying to make a new one but it says if I delete the account it will remove it's data from my phone. So if I put delete account will I lose everything on my Iphone?
This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
This is a picture of what it looks like now:

As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
any way to get around that? -
I cant seem to open some photos on Iphoto. I downloaded like 3 months ago from my phone into the iphoto. I could access ALL of my photos back then but when I try and access them now I cant seem to open the file. When i open iphoto and open the folder thats on it, i can see ALL the photos that are there but when I click on different ones some appear in the larger screen but A LOT of them dont appear. Iphoto seems to have erased the file or I dont know.
Also I tried clicking on the photo that doesnt appear and making it "Reveal it on finder" - "original file" and it says 'The operation can’t be completed because the item can’t be found.".
I really want those photos because they involve a really special family vacation, please help me find those photosA LOT of them dont appear.
What do you see in the window when you click on those? A blank, black window? An exclamation mark? What? -
