I bought a new computer, and i have transfered everything using home share, file transfers, etc.. yet still when i go to sync, itunes tells me ipod can only be synced with one computer... is there a way to retire the relationship with the old computer?

i bought a new computer. the itunes app allows for home shareing, file transfers, etc.. but i want to discontinue the syncing with the old computer and sync my ipod touch now only on my new system... but i cant seem to disconnect that old relationship at all.. when i try to syncit says that my ipod is already synced with another computer, do i want to discontinue that and only use the new informationon this computer? i dont want to do that yet because it doesnt seem like everything has come over, and i am afraid of losing songs that i downloaded from cds, etc..

if you don't want to sync it because you don't think that everything has been transferred then i would check first if you can, before you commit to used only the data from your new computer.
though, im not sure if this is true, but i think that when you sync your ipod to a new computer it will take the items from your ipod and put it on itunes, like when you purchase something on your ipod and it gets automatically transfered, but don't take my word for it.

HT1364 I just bought a new PC and now have ample space on my C drive to house my music Library which is currenlty installed on a external drive. What is the best way to install and move the itunes library to my C Drive?

I just bought a new PC and now have ample space on my C drive to house my music Library which is currenlty installed on a external drive. What is the best way to install and move the itunes library to my C Drive?

If the entire library is on the external drive then simply copy the iTunes folder into <User's Music> on the new computer, then install iTunes. If you've already installed iTunes you will want to remove the empty iTunes folder in <User's Music> first.
If it turns out you only have the media folder on the external drive then take a look at this post...

I just bought a new PC and I have re-installed my Adobe Creative Suite Standard on it. Software open fine. PROBLEM: The toolbars (menu stuff) appear extra-small, too small for me to read... I sent on the PC setting to try to change the display resolution.

I went into the PC settings and tried to change the display resolution. This changes the size of all the icons (not only Adobe) but it does not solve the problem when I open an Adobe application (Photoshop or Illustrator)... The PC is run under Windows 8.1 and my display resolution is 3200x1800 (but again, when I change the settings for a smaller resolution, only the size of the icons is affected. Once I open the software, the problem is still there, extra-small toolbars...). Help!!!

Anything before CC is not high-DPI compatible. Feel free to continue to experiment with your system settings.

I used to be able to play music and podcasts in a single playlist (with iTunes DJ), but now can't seem to do this. Is there a way around this with iTunes 11?

You are freaken genius! Apple should update their instructions on how to give playlists, because the old way no longer works. And people tend to give gifts around this time of year. Anyway, mahalo niu loa (thank you very much)!

I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found. Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

Try here:
iTunes: Unable to sync photos
Usually deleting the iPod Photo Cache Folder works. Note that if you sync via the folder method, make sure you dlete all the ifolders since :
The iPod Photo Cache stores the photos that are optimized for display on your iPod, iPad, or iPhone. The location of this folder depends on the syncing options you select. In iTunes, if you change the selection in the “Sync Photos From” pop-up menu, a new iPod Photo Cache folder will be created (and the previous folder will remain).

I need help with iTunes. I just bought a new laptop and I have a few questions

So I just bought a new laptop and few days ago. It's an HP. I have the iPhone 4 (8GB). So all my songs from iCloud are on my phone. I want to manually put them on my phone. All of my songs, videos, pictures etc. are on my new laptop. I went to apply the changes on iTunes when I selected "Manually manage music and videos". And a message came up saying "This iPhone is synced with another iTunes library on another PC. Do you want to choose to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library?" Under that it says "Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library."
So what do I do? I don't want to click sync and loose everything on my phone. I will no longer use the other comuter. I really need help.
Thank you!

There are some instructions on this page for syncing to a new computer : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
You should be able to copy iTunes purchased music from the phone via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases
If you still have your old computer and you haven't copied your library over form it, then there are also some methods listed on this page about how you could copy it over : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - the page refers to music, but I've used the home sharing method to copy apps, films etc between computers.

I got a new computer and downloaded itunes to it, is there a way to get my song from my old computer with itunes to my new one without having to redownload them all

I was hoping i could just sign in on my new one and get all the songs to it with out redownloading them.

It is a reasonable question - we increasingly see the ability to access "my data" through the cloud rather than relying on local storage. In the case of iTunes:
You can, in most cases, access and re-download previous iTunes Store purchases
If you subscribe to iTunes Match, your complete library - within the 25,000 song limit imposed by the service - will be available to you,
That being said, the most complete and reliable method is still to copy your complete library (database, media, artwork, ...) from the older computer to the new one. If you've configured iTunes so that all your music, etc., is stored within the iTunes Media folders then you can just copy the C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes folder and all its contents from the old computer to the corresponding location on the new one. Depending on the size of your library you can copy it across a network, using a thumb drive or an external (USB) hard drive.
If you have media stored elsewhere on the old computer the process is a little more complex.

I just bought a new computer, now itunes tells me I can only sync with one computer. It only offers me the choice to erase and sync. I do not want to erase my ipod, I just want my music on the new computer. Can't I just transfer the songs from the ipod

I just bought a new computer. Itunes only offers me the option of erase and sync, as I can only have it sync'd with one computer. I want to move my music to this computer from my ipod. Is this possible, or do I have to go back to my cds and upload everything from there? I just want to be able to move my music from my ipod to the new computer.

You need to transfer your iTunes Library from the old computer to the new one - then you can carry on syncing as normal. You can't move non-purchased music from an iPod to iTunes using iTunes. For purchased music, choose iTunes > File > Transfer purchases...

I bought a new iMac, and i have CC on my old iMac and my laptop. since i'm only authorized to use 2 computers, how do i transfer the license off of my old cdesktop ompuetr to my new one

how do i transfer a cc license from my old desktop iMac to my new one? i use cc on my laptop as well

Hi Rose,
You just have to run one of the CC applications on your old iMac and do a "sign out" (on windows this is in the e.g. Photoshop "Help" menu, can't remember for Mac)...which warns you that you can't use CC apps on that computer anymore.
Then install CC on your new iMac and log in to it. You will then have to use the CC app to install photoshop etc on your new iMac.

Is there a way to Retrieve QT Pro Registration # from old computer?

Hi,
I had a Mac G5 Tower that died about six months ago. I removed the two hard disk drives and have a Newer Technology disk reader, so I can acess information on the drives, and bring up the disks on my Macbook Pro laptop.
I would like to retrieve the registration number for the QuickTime pro from the G5 disks, but I can't figure out how to do that. The registration number is many years old, and Apple keeps those numbers for only 18 months.
Is there a way for me to retrieve the registration number?

Hi,
Well, I figured it out....snagged the registration number from the old drives. Not that difficult to do....just took me a while.

HT204266 I would like my kids to have separate itunes accounts under my umbrella itunes account so they can separate their own gift cards. Is there a way to do this?

I would like my kids to have separate accounts within my iTunes umbrella acct to manage their gift cards and purchases. Is there a way to do this?

You can set up accounts for them, but they will be completely separate. There is no "umbrella" account or global management where you can view and control multiple accounts. You'll have to log into each iTunes Store account separately to redeem gift cards, view purchases, etc. To set up a new iTunes Store account for each child, each will need a separate email address.
Regards.
