From your OLD computer...
Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

An Added Bonus is that you will have a Backup of iTunes.

  • I got a new iPhone , why can't I get my apps from my cloud ?

    I got a new iPhone , why can't I get my apps from my cloud to go on my new iPhone from App Store it's asking for a credit card the apps were free and are in my cloud already ,so why is it asking me for a credit card and it will send me to my settings and that's were it asks me and if I don't put one in I can't get my apps!

    While you could create a new ID without a credit card by following the steps in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534, I would recommend you first try contacting Apple support to find out what you can do to use your existing Apple ID without using a credit card (if it didn't have one before).  You can set up a call with them by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click iTunes>iTunes Store>Purchases, Billing & Redemption>How to recover missing purchased items.  The call will be free but you will need your serial number, which you can find in Settings>General>About.  Alternatively, you can contact iTunes store support by email here: https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.

  • Why do I have to turn on my wi-fi manually every time I log into my computer? Can't it just log in when I do?

    Why do I have to turn on my wi-fi manually every time I log into my computer? Can't it just log in when I do?

    Test after taking each of the following steps. Back up all data before making any changes.
    1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved.
    2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly."
    3. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
    4. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
    5. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
    6. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
    7. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
    8. Reset the System Management Controller.
    9. Reset the PRAM.
    10. Reinstall OS X.

  • Purchased CS5 extended a few years back. Recently got a new computer. Can't find any download links.

    I bought CS5 extended for school a few years back. I just got a new computer and lost my installation CD a long time ago. I have my serial number, but cannot find any download that works. Is there a way I can go through Adobe to download it? Or any legitimate sources?

    You can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.
    CS5: http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html
    The downloads at this site are actually getting the files from the Adobe servers, which is why it is important that you follow the instructions very carefully.

  • Got a new computer, and can't sync iPhone anymore.

    There is music currently saved on my phone that I had in a previous version of iTunes. I transferred all of the music and re-downloaded iTunes when I got a new computer. However, the new version of iTunes doesn't recognize the songs that were already on my iPhone. I can't add new music because I am out of memory, but I can't use iTunes to delete the old music because it doesn't recognize the audio files. Is there a way to delete those files (aside from deleting each individual song maunally)?

    You need to transfer the iTunes library from your old computer to your new one.    It sounds like you only moved the individual songs, not the library itself
    Here is the instructions:

  • So if  I got a new computer how can I get all my old music back?

    My old labtop with my entire itunes library is no longer accessable so how do I get all my previous music back? Please help me!

    Put it on the new computer.
    Installing iTunes and logging into a user's account has never caused media to magically appear on a computer.
    Copy the entire iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.
    Alternatively, type "move iTunes library" into the search bar on this site for detailed instructions.

  • 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 just got a new computer and can't get my library to download

    I can't figure out how to get all the songs I have bought through the years to show up on this computer.

    Your music will not not magically appear.  Your music will only be where you put it.
    You buy one download only.  it is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
    Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

  • Why can't I suddenly not able to access online accounts?

    Suddenly, why when I'm on one of my online accounts and try to click on a log in button, screen freezes and cannot log in?

    Hello,
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    If no change on restarting normally...
    Open console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem  & the Startup right after that for clues.
    click on the top line we want, Shift plus click on the bottom line we want, CMD+c to copy, then paste the text in a reply with CMD+v
    A few dozen lines should be about right, hundreds or thousands won't likely be readable.

  • I recently got a new computer because my old one wouldn't let me open creative suite 3 after it generated a error and now I can't deactivate the key to activate it onto my new account.

    I recently got a new computer because my old one wouldn't let me open creative suite 3 after it generated a error and now I can't deactivate the key to activate it onto my new computer. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    You are allowed to have two activted installations, so if the first machine is the only machine with an activated installation there is nothing prohibiting you from installing and activating on the new machine.
    You can contact Adobe Support thru chat to have the old installation deactivation.
