I am currently transfering all my songs and apps from my iPad to my computer...

,But it won't upload my playlist just the songs? Is that suppose to happen or should I just remake my playlists?

You can transfer itunes purcahses only.  File>Transfer Purchases
EVERYTHING should always be on your computer.  Ipod/ipad/iphone are not sotrage/backup devices.  They simply mirror the selected content of your computer.

  • Is there a way to transfer all the music and apps from an iphone to a computer with a new hard drive

    I've had a new hard drive fitted in my laptop and i wanted to know if there is a way that i could tranfer my music and app from my iphone to itunes on the computer?

    Yes, the Mac can read NTFS drives, but not write to them.
    If you have the drive formatted FAT or exFAt then the Mac can read and write to it. But before formatting, remove the data as it's erased, and format it on the PC as it's easier. Right click on Windows and Format.
    Drives, partitions, formatting w/Mac's + PC's
    Moving your personal data via the external drive is likley the best option, there are other methods like Migration, but they are problematic and take a long time, a drive is simple, fast and direct.

  • Transferring all settings, mail and apps from iphone to new pc

    hey guys,
    when syncing my iphone with a new pc, how would i transfer all my mail, settings and contacts over in the new pc? would it be included in my library as well?
    also, would the library also include my apps too? or do i have to transfer the mobile sync file over?
    not good at this stuff, so any advice will do.
    thanks in advance

    Thanks for your reply razmee209. As I mentioned, I've already read many posts about this subject, including that one. It's very helpful but stops short of explaining WHY the design is the way it is. I'm accustomed to being able to tell what my computer is doing - seeing the file extensions, knowing what files are where. I'm hoping someone can provide the reasoning. For instance: is the content on my iPhone not the same file type as the content on my pc? Is it related to rights management, or security?

  • I just bought a new macbook air. Now i want to sync my iphone to this computer. I copied all my songs and apps to the itunes. If I sync do i loose all my contacts and notes? because i could not copy it to itunes

    You need to use the backup of your PC to transfer all the music files to iTunes on the Mac.
    If you have no backup then you have a difficult task ahead of you as iTunes will only allow you to sync purchased music from the iPhone back into iTunes.   Any music you loaded into iTunes yourself will not transfer from the iPhone to iTunes, this is to prevent stealing of music.  To sync iTunes purchased music from the iPhone to iTunes, connect the iPhone and open iTunes, but when asked do NOT sync the device.  then right click on the iPhone in the iTunes source list and select the 'Transfer Purchases' option, you will also find this commend in the File menu.
    If you are in the US, you can use the new iTunes in the Could feature to redownload your iTunes purchased music / apps / books for free.
    If you want to transfer all the content from your iPhone to you Mac then you will need to use Google to find a 3rd party piece of software that will do this for you.

  • How do I set up 2 different IPOD's on the same computer without having all the songs and games from the first one copy onto the second one?

    how do I set up 2 different IPOD's on the same computer without all the songs and games from 1 copying to the other?

    - Disable autosyncing: go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says "Prevent iPods ...syncing">
    - Connect the iPod and go to the music, apps and other panes for the iPod and check the boxes that say only sync the checked items.

  • HT1296 I am trying to transfer all of my music, photos, movies and apps from my IPAD to a new computer I just purchased for home use.  Currently I have been using a work computer.  How can I do this?

    I got a new computer for home and I am trying to transfer all of my music, movies, photos and apps from my IPAD.  I have been using my work computer ofr this in the past but want to change to my new home computer.  I can't figure out how to do this without erasing everything from it.

    This is an extract from one of our senior participant; hope he doesn't mind me reproducing it here
    Syncing with new computer
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.

  • I have had a new hard drive installed. On start up I transferred all my settings and documents from my time capsule. Once complete I have two user accounts. Mine and guest. I cannot access either. Mine says password incorrect even though its not.

    I have had a new hard drive installed. On start up I transferred all my settings and documents from my time capsule. Once complete I have two user accounts. Mine and guest. I cannot access either. Mine says password incorrect even though its not. Any idea what is wrong here and how I can reset my password. I don't have a start up disc. Thanks very much

    From System Preferences/Help:
    Reset your login password using your Apple ID
    Before you can use your Apple ID to reset your login password, make sure that FileVault isn’t enabled on your computer.
    Also make sure that an Apple ID is associated with your user account, and that an administrator has given you permission to reset your own password using an Apple ID. For more information, see this help topic:
    Associate Apple IDs with your user account
    Make sure your computer is connected to the Internet.
    In the login window, click the question mark in the password field, and then click the arrow in the dialog that appears.
    Enter an Apple ID and password, and then click Reset Password.
    I don't know if it works.

    Are you sure of that?  Check in the Library.  Click on the Apps icon to see all apps.  Similarly click on the Music icon to see the songs.

  • HT4527 I just had to clear the hard drive on my computer - now I want to transfer all the music and pictures from my ipad back onto my computer.  'Sync' doesn't do it.  What do I do?

    I had toclear the hard drive of my computer and reinstall Windows 7.  Now I want to transfer all the music and photos from my iPad back onto my computer.  I authorized the computer (it is the ONLY computer authorized on this account - and this is the ONLY account on this iPad).  ITunes then downloaded my purchases...or at least it tried - out of the hundreds of tracks I have purchased, it managed one album that I bought over a year ago and NOTHING else.  So I tried to Sync - since on older versions of iTunes (that were SO MUCH MORE user friendly) that would do the job -transferring things that were only on the iPad onto the computer and vice versa.  It doesn't do that anymore.  So I went from my iPad's summary to the Music tab - the box for Music was not checked but when I checked it said the only thing it could do was erase EVERYTHING from my iPad and replace it with what was on my computer (that ONE album).  What is going on?
    Why hasn't iTunes downloaded my other purchases since I authorized the computer? (there are over 3,000 tracks...not 18)
    How can I download my iPad to my computer?

    -Me again - it also won't upload the few new pictures I have on the computer onto the iPad without deleting all the photos that are already there....

  • Hi i just buy a macbook how can i transfer all my musics and apps from my iphone to my new itune?

    hi i just buy a macbook how can i transfer all my musics and apps from my iphone to my new itune?

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

    This is one of the most basic of functions of the iPhone.  This is a good time for you to read the User Guide.  All the instructions on how to operate yor phone are included.  I suggest you read through it.
