  • Just bought a new laptop, windows vista and it say gateway and my ipod touch not showing up

    I just bought a new laptop, Windows vista to be exact, i downloaded the latest version of itunes and my ipod is not showing up ? Anyone can help me

    See:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar

    you just need your serial number and the installation files.
    if you don't have your serial number, it can be recovered from your old computer if it's a pc using Belarc Advisor - Free Personal PC Audit, for software, hardware and security configuration information on your computer.…

    wow ... I get a headache just trying to read what you just said. I went and read how to migrate my library and found that you can only migrate purchased media.
    No, you can easily migrate your entire library from one working compter to another.
    If you fail to backup or migrate your library and find yourself with nothing but a new empty computer and a device full of content iTunes is designed to only recover the iTunes purchased content, however third party tools can help recover everything if needed.

    there are a number of scenarios to do it.
    The general idea was covered here:

    Make sure you have a full backup of your iPhone before recyncing with the iMac as during this process all data will be wiped out from your iPhone.
    Going forward you may want to check icloud which makes life easier.

    You can't. You will have to place the iPod in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    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.

    Note:
    The iPhone 3G can only update as far as iOS 4.2.1
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...
    If an Update Appears Install it... if not... you are up to date for your particular Device...

  • I have just bought a new computer with Windows 7 and I need to transfer all my I tunes records from my Windows Xp computer. How do I do this without losing any of my songs?

    I have just bought a Compaq Desktop Computer with Windows 7 but I do not want to set itup until I know how to transfer my 1800 songs from my ITUNES library on this old Windows XP Pro to a new set up on my Compaq. If anybody could please help me in simple language ( I am only a user with very little knowledge and nil jargon) I should be most grateful. Is there anybody out there to solve my dilemma?

    Did you purchase all your music from iTunes, or import it from CDs?
    If you've purchased all your music from iTunes, it now keeps track of your purchased items. All you would need to do is download iTunes on your new computer and log in with your Apple ID (the account you set up on iTunes). Then on the right hand side (in the bar) near the top there is a section that says "Purchased" *NEW*.  There it will show you all your music and give you an option to re-download it on to your new computer. *You will need to authorize the new computer and deactivate the old one if you're not using it anymore*
    If you imported your songs (or otherwise obtained), my best suggestion to you is to get a USB stick/thumb drive/external hard drive and copy all your music from your old computer on to the USB stick. (You can do it with a network, but that's assuming you have one set up already in your home).
    To do that, you need to go to Music > iTunes > iTunes Library (folder)  (this may not be exact as I use a Mac. I'm going from memory here). Right-click the folder and click "Copy". Go to My Computer and click on whatever drive is your external/USB stick (would be like E:\ or something). Double click on that, then right click in the next window and click Paste. This will copy your entire iTunes Library on to the separate hard drive.
    Once it is finished (and with 1800 songs it will take a while, so go read a book or something), properly eject the external hard drive and plug it in to your new computer. Open Music > iTunes and do the same process to copy and paste the folder into there.
    Once that is finished, open iTunes and all your music should be there. If not, go File > Import Folder and then find your iTunes Music folder and click it, then click Import and it will import them into iTunes for you.
    Hope this helps and is clear enough for you. If you have any other questions, please ask and I'll do my best

  • When I bought a new laptop and copied my entire itunes library onto my new computer, alot of my songs won't play and say "file could not be found". When I got to the itunes media folder songs I am looking for aren't there.

    Some of the songs that "can not be located" are songs that I have purchased from Itunes and when I right click on the album and go to "show in itunes store" the album shows up as purchased but there is not an option to re-downlaod it to my library again. Also, ALL of the albums that I already owned and brought into Itunes say the files "cannot be located". Please help.

    Copy them the correct way.
    Close iTunes on both computers.
    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder for the old computer to the new computer.
    Open iTunes on the new computer.  Everything in iTunes will be exactly as it was on the old computer.
    FYI, marking your own additional comments as "This solved my question" is a good way to get the post ignored.

  • New laptop doesn't see iPhone after user import from old laptop

    Transferred my user account from my MacBook to new MacBook Pro, and now the MBP doesn't see my iPhone. Anyone else have this issue and know the solution? I don't mind wiping and restoring the iPhone. (Though I'd prefer not to.)
    BTW - deleted my account and all files from the MacBook prior to verifying my iPhone works on the new MacBook Pro. So I can't "go back" to my old machine.

    Once again, I answer my own question... Leaving the iPhone plugged in during a restart worked.

  • I had CS4 on my iMac desktop (two users) but my hard drive completely crashed. We bought two new Macbook Pros (one for me and one for my daughter) but CS4 didn't transfer over. The iMac is totally dead so we can't deactivate it there.  My daughter is head

    We had an iMac with CS4 and the hard drive finally crashed. My daughter and I were both users on that computer.  We purchased two new macbook pros and had the data transferred but CS4 didn't come over. The iMac is totally dead so we can't deactivate anything from it. She is heading off to college soon and eventually will need to upgrade but for now CS4 is just fine. I also need it on my computer.  Help??
