iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

    Apps designed for iOS do not run on OS X....
    But... media files should still run if that's that you mean.

    The ipod is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You should copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

    I have recently bought a new pc and want to transfer my music library from my iphone to itunes on my new pc

    I too have just purchased a new pc and want to transfer EVERYTHING from my iPhone to the new pc.  I am unable to access my old pc for the files.  I have been able to transfer what I purchased on my phone but nothing else.  Is there anyway to just transfer everything without having to have access to the old pc?

    Hi, hopefully you guys can help me out, I just
    purchased a G5 iMac to replace my aging dell desktop,
    and now i'm more or less completely os x dependant
    (I've had an ibook for a few months now). Anyway, I
    have a few questions:
    1. Does anyone know of a (free) mail notifier tool,
    that will alert me when I recieve new pop3 mail? I
    used to use AIM for this in windows
    The built in email program does sound an alert for new messages.
    2. Anyone know of a good (free, again) IRC client?
    iChat works well.
    3. I noticed earlier that my screen was flickering,
    it seems to have subsided for now, but is that normal
    to encounter in a new display? It wasn't really bad
    flicker, but I could see it.
    No idea.
    4. I leave my desktops on 24/7x365, will that be a
    problem with this iMac? Display shuts off of course
    after 30 mins
    You could set the iMac to go to sleep after non use. My Macs are
    always sleeping when not in use, waking them up takes seconds.
    Unlike windoze, never knew if it would be locked up or not.
    5. Should I get the extended warranty? I'm usually
    against them, but I am expecting this computer to
    last me at least 3 years (for $1300 it better!)
    before I upgrade, as I got that much out of a Dell
    and from what I understand, Mac's do not age nearly
    as fast as Windows pc's.
    It is well worth the cost. Never know what might happen. Also
    it is good insurance for future upgrades. I traded in my G4 tower
    purchased two years ago for 75% of what I paid for it. Apple care
    transfers, giving the buyer the remainder of your warranty.
    Thank you for any help,
    -Evan

    I had an itunes account I shared with my family.  I opened a separate account when I got a new phone but cant't transfer my library of music.  I want to cancel new account and go back to original shared account.  How do I do this?

    Content is permanently tied to the account it is acquired with.
    Apple ID's cannot be deleted.
    Simply sign out of the undesired account and stop using it.  Sign in with the desired account.

    hi,
    I just bought my first mini mac.  I been using a HP with windows 7.  I want to transfer my itunes on my mini mac.  How can I do this without the need of my iphone to transfer.
    Thank you,
    Debbie

    Organize the library, right-click any song in iTunes, show it in the Windows Explorer, navigate up to the iTunes folder, and move that folder over as you would any other. Alternatively, the Setup Assistant and Migration Assistant can migrate all your user data into a newly-created user account.
    The Mac will need to be separately authorized to play protected content, and any movies rented on the PC won't play on the Mac.

  • I recently got a MacBook Air and want to transfer my itunes library over from my PC to my Mac.

    My family has 1 computer where everyone but me syncs all their devices, I had a PC and had my own library but all on one account. I recently got a MacBook Air and want to get my library from my PC onto my Mac. I tried getting it from icloud but instead I got everyones music all together and none of my playlists where there. How to In get my library onto my Mac without adding the entire icloud library?

    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
