I have a new computer

I need to transfer purchased apps from an old windows computer with itunes 9 onto a new computer with windows7...
also need to update both 3Gs phones OS from 4.1 to 6.0... in order to get all the contacts & pictures onto 2 new iphone 5's that I want to update to
also have new ipad 4 that I would like to add some existing apps, pictures, and contact info to.
This is a lot of updating and steps...need to know the best way to proceed?
Do I install ITunes first then ICloud...  will all my purchased apps be brought into the new computer & itunes?
When upgrading the 2 old 3gs iphones will I lose any data... pictures, contacts, etc.
Only need to update the 2 older phones in order to get the contacts & pictures off them and onto the 2 new iphone 5's I want to get
Then I would like to add a new ipad4 I just got to the mix and get everything into ICloud
Thanks

  • Help to get my photo art edit software working in my new computer.i saved a backup before my old computer died. i have a new computer now, and is what i backed up, all i need to make my new computer have what i had in my old/dead computer?

    help. am not a tech savvy person.
    i do art with a win vista computer filledwith photoshop cs3 and tons uf unbelievable plugins that were given to me by a now deceased ps wizard.
    that computer died. i now have a new computer, but it is of no value to me without the same art setup that i backed up into an ext hard drive.
    i have wetechies @ 300 usd/year trying to remotely do that. day 2, so far no success.
    i cannot afford to buy all that. i have cancer also, and with 6 months to live, friends have generously bout me a great computer for my art needs.
    but i need more than a computer. and i need more than photoshop. i need the programs n things in my plugins .
    does anyone know how to do that?
    my wetechies from india are on day two, and ony have given me a 1.16 kb pd icon!  then asked me if that was fine.
    i said  to them it is fine if it works! which it did not.
    tody is day 2, person 2 attempting this.
    is this an impossible feat?
    they are not familiar with plugins, but they do comp tech stuff.
    my cs3 extended and the plastic case bearing the serial #, bought for 900 usd, were stolen the night i was in the hospital having my mastectomy.
    i had the ps3 inside the plastic case in my living room drawer. when i came home, there  was a psc ( not extended )  in one of the 2 computer drawers.
    i am not sure why. but in the second drawer was my chest xray from the hospital???? i suppose ,since i never looked at it myself, it may have had my personal info needed for the thief to pose as me. also, my purse, with passport,all forms of id and my keys, were stolen on another day . but i have bad credit, so good luck to them.
    i want to spend my remaining time doing art. I even entered an art competition for charity. sponsored by Lilly oncology.
    i know of no one who did art in my building at the time which was in florida, where i was having my chemo and radiion, and first surgery.
    that computer, was broken, by someone trying to fix it. perhaps the only person i know who wopuld have an interest in the plugins as he was a photog and was familiar with the photog and ps wizard who supplied me my art stuff.
    wheredo i go from here, inexpensively, i was gifted the computer of my choice. it is awesome for art. but i wanta photoshop in it, which i do not use for much, but i do use the plugins.
    question-  is it true that my new 64 bit computer with win7 is compatible with cs3 and higher? as well as plugins tha are 32bit not 64 bit?@

    Whether your music purchases will be in the cloud will depend upon what country that you are in, and whether it is still in the store (record companies occasionally remove their music) - you can't add music to the cloud without subscribing to iTunes Match.
    You should be able to copy your library over from your existing computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527

  • I have an Ipod Touch 4g. My computer broke. I have a new computer now. My problem is that my new computer  itunes library does not recognise the content already on my ipod. Help please

    I have an Ipod Touch 4G.   My computer broke.  I now have a new computer .  I have NO access to old computer.  The itunes on my new computer recognises by Ipod but not the music content already on my ipod.  This means it does not  show the content in the library on itunes any more.  The content on my ipod is not purchased from itunes store.  Can i get it to show up in the `new` library?    Is this also preventing me from downloading new items into my ipod - as i can download new discs into the library, but they will not load into the ipod.   Your help would be appreciated - cant bear another sleepless night.  Thank you

    I dont know how helpful this will be but here we go:
    try syncing your ipod again
    do you still have these cds? try reburning them to you library
    restart itunes
    restart the computer
    hardware reset ipod touch
    Heres how to do this
    Hold down power and home button at the same time until the screen goes black, ignore the slide to power off arrow
    Idevice will now restart on its own, this might take longer then when waking it from shut down
    6. now try step 1 again
    note: try any of these ideas they are not a set order of instructions

  • I had my laptop that my iphone was backed up onto repossesed so now i have a new computer but i dont know how to put my music photos and video and apps on my new computer can somebody help??

    I had my laptop repossesed and it had all my bak up from my iphone 4 on it i have a new computer but i cant put all my pics vids apps and songs on my itunes i really need help with this because alot of the photos and stuff i have on my iphone are sentimental as are the songs which all havnt been purchased through itunes please tell me there is a way to do this??//

    Set the iTunes to prevent automatic syncing before you plug it in the first time. You should be able to extract any photos in the camera roll as you would from any other camera. You can transfer purchases to get anything you actually purchased from the iTunes store off the phone and into iTunes. Made sure you have at least 1 contact in whatever application you intend to sync contacts to. This will give you the option to merge them. If you don't, the phone will be overwritten with the blank address book from the computer.
    As for extracting anything else, media sync is meant to be 1 way only. Computer>iPhone.
    As for media that wasn't purchased on the phone, you can try a 3rd party program that 'may' be able to extract it, but this isn't sanctioned or supported by Apple in any way.  Technically, you're out of luck if you don't have a backup from the computer that was repossesed.

    I recently had to do a wipe on my laptop. I saved the sync key but there was no mention of a sync account prior to doing the wipe.

    You are probably trying to use old Sync with Firefox newer than version 29,
    and they did make old Sync unusable on fresh installations of newer Firefox.
    You can uninstall that newer Firefox, then install Firefox 29 from here:
    https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/29.0.1/
    Apply your sync key code, then update that installation to current Firefox,
    then migrate to new Sync:

    You are allowed to have two machines with activated installations, so if you only had one installation, you still have the option to install on a second without doing anything further than that.  If you originally downloaded the purchase thru Adobe then you might find a download link available in your Adobe account online.  You can also download thru the following page if you can find your version:
    Download and Installation Help -
    https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install.html
    You can have the first installation deactivated to free up the activation and have it available for another machine again as well.  YOu need to contact Adobe Support thru chat for that.  For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

  • HT202213 I have a new computer we set up with itunes home sharing. Can I add music to this new computer sync my iphone and ipod to it instead of the original computer. I'm not sure if it makes a difference if I have a different apple id than with our orig

    I have a new computer that we set up with itunes home sharing and I need some assistance. I also have my own apple id and would like to make the new computer the one I use for my music. Should I set up a whole new itunes library/account or still work with the home sharing?

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • I have a new computer and I can't access my Itunes account.  The message says that I am allowed to have only 5 authorized computers on this account.  I do not have 5 authorized computers on my account.  What can I do?

    I have a new computer and I can't access my Itunes account.  The message says I can't have more than 5 computers on this account and I don't.  What can I do?

    First of all you should really post this in Itunes forums cause you might get more hits on it.. Anyway.. You can only authorize up to 5 comps on one itunes account.. This does not include iOS devices. Those you can have 10.
    So to fix this issue, open itunes, hit store on the left side, click log in (or your e-mail address if you are already logged in) in the top right hard corner of the page. One you log into your account you will see a a little area where it says you authorized 5 out of 5 comps. Below it should be a button to clear all those out.  Itunes will de-authorize all computers on the account then you need to go back Store tab in the menu bar and select authorize this computer.
    Remember it will deauthorize all your computers, so you need to re-authorize any other computers you have.

  • I downloaded digital hd copies of movies onto my parents' computer and they have a new computer now, and the movies aren't there, even though they have the same apple ID. What do I do to get them to download?

    I downloaded digital hd copies of movies onto my parents' computer and they have a new computer now, and the movies aren't there, even though they have the same apple ID. What do I do to get them to download?
    New computer: Dell, Windows 8.1
    Processor: Intel Core i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz
    64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor
    16 GB RAM
    itunes up-to-date
    Old computer: Dell, Microsoft Windows XP
    Processor: Intel Pentium D CPU @ 2.80GHz
    1 GB RAM
    itunes not up-to-date (updating it isn't really an option)
    I have these movies downloaded on the old computer from digital hd redeemed codes: Fantastic Mr. Fox, Super 98, Thor, Inception, The Hunger Games, and Star Trek Into Darkness. I bought Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl on itunes with money, and that one isn't showing up either. When I search it on itunes to see if I can just re-download it, that isn't an option. I would have to buy it again. Home Sharing isn't what I want because the old computer will not be here forever and it is not connected to wifi.
    It's kind of a lot of movies, and I want them on the new computer.

  • I have a new computer and want to move my Itunes libriarys to this new PC.  How do I do this .

    I have a new computer and want to move my Itunes libriarys to this new PC.  How do I do this?

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data. If you don't have any Apple devices then see HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.
