I have a new computer, and want to put the new music from there to my existing ipod (which has an existing library that I don't want to erase)

I have a new computer, with some new music on it in my Itunes Library. How do I put that new music from here onto my existing ipod (which has a ~1500 song library from an old computer which is no longer accesible, and which music I do not want to erase)?

I'm not trying to put the music from my old ipod onto my new computer!!!! I don't really want to do that!
I would like simply to see if there is a way to put the new music from my new computer onto my old ipod without erasing all my existing music that I have on there.

HT1391 I have a new computer and cannot access my previously purchased music from here. The error message says I need to authorize this computer

I have a new computer and cannot access my previously purchased music from here. The error message says I need to authorize this computer??

There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

Make a new Apple ID for her.
Use it on her iPhone 4S for iCloud, iMessage and FaceTime.
Use your ID on her iPhone 4S for iTunes and App Stores.
Sign in with your Apple ID on iTunes Store (on iTunes app of her new computer)
Authorize her new computer with your Apple ID in iTunes (iTunes menu>Store>Authorize this Computer)
Check "Share my Library on my Local Network" in iTunes Preferences in your and her computer
Sign in Home Sharing of her iTunes with your Apple ID.
Copy all the Music she wants from the old computer to the new one. (Must be on the same network)
Copy all the apps she wants from the old computer to the new one. (Must be on the same network)
Export all playlist as xml files from the old computer to the new one.(right click on the playlist to export and "File>Library>Import Playlist to Import)
Sync her iPhone 4S with all content she wants from her new computer (all data from the old computer will be deleted)
Are you sharing Contacts or other data from iCloud?
Be careful or ask for help about moving from iCloud account to another one.

Hi there.
Have an iphone 3G and wen to install the Facebook app from the app store. Wen I selected install app, it said that the iphone requires IOS 4.3.
I then plugged the phone into itunes and it said the phone was up to date (IOS 4.2.2 I think it said?). How can i install these apps, the same happened and other apps i tried to install. Any advice would be much apprecaited

Unfortunately there is nothing that you can do and you CAN'T install these apps becuse your phone is too old. A 3G cannot be updated beyond iOS 4.2, which is the most it can support and these apps need iOS 4.3 or above to be installed and there are no versions of these apps available.
Developers have to place a cut off somewhere and keep developing for the most recent software that does not now include the 3G.
If you want to install these apps on your phone, then you will have to upgrade to either an iPhone 3Gs, iPhone 4, 4s or 5. That is all you can do because you won't be able to download these apps on an iPhone 3G - just not possible any longer.

You cannot redownload ringtones.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. Have you failed to do this?

I have a mac computer and since it did the updates, my browser isn't working. How do I fix this?

My mac computer did an update with the Lion software, since then, the browser isn't working at all. How do I fix this?

'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

I got a new computer and im trying to move my music from my old one to my new one HELP PLEASE

Okay I tried to use my usb and it was good and I put the music on there and
then I plugged it in my new computer and I dragged it from the usb to iTunes
and then it was playing and fine THEN I un plug the usb and I click on a song
and it says It cant find the file....

Reconnect the USB drive and organize the library from within iTunes. To prevent this happening again, either drag the library to the internal drive or set iTunes to automatically copy the files to the iTunes Media folder.

If you are a resident of the U.S. you can re download past iTunes purchases for free. If not, (going by your username), restore from a back up.

Whats the fastest (and least complicated) way to copy Music from my PC to my ipod

am trying to copy music from my PC to iPod touch but it never seems to work HELPPPPPPPP!

Fastest and easiest way is to sync it through iTunes. You should also consider subscribing to iTunes match. It costs around $20 for a year and puts all your songs onto the cloud. This allows you to easily transfer the songs without having to sync your iPod. When you add a song to iTunes, through iTunes match it will upload the song to the cloud and automatically download the song to your iPod.

I have broken my computer and want to sync my music on my sister's itunes on her computer. How can i do this without deletin everything on my iphone?

I have recently broken my computer but now i would like to make some CD's for my car with the music i have on my iphone4. My sister has an ipod touch and has itunes on her computer. Is there a way I can sync my music into her itunes without it deleting all my music :/
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks.

You cannot.
The iphone will sync with one and only one computer at a time. Sycning to another will erase the content from teh iphone and replace with content from the new computer.
You can use your backup copy of your computer to put everything onto another computer, then sync to that computer.
You can transfer itunes purchases to another computer from your iphone. Open itunes,Sign into your account, connect iphone, do not sync, then click File>Transfer Purchases

I just got a new computer and I need to get my music from my ipod to my new itunes, and not just my purchases through itunes.

Hello,
I am selling my Macboook Pro and would like to wipe my computer clean of everyhting! I bought my macbook pro in 2011 with Mac OS X (Version10.6.6) and since have installed Lion. I have followed other instructions (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3948951?start=0&tstart=0) However I only have the option to reinstall into Lion. Is it possible to reinstall back to the original version (10.6.6) that came with my laptop?

See if this link can help you out.
