Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

Computer crashed. Need to transfer music from IPOD to new computer. All support found requires transfer from old computer. Not possible. Can I transfer music from IPOD to new computer. Don't want to lose the music I've got.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

I would like to transfer my music library, including playlists, from my old iphone to my new iphone.
Connect the new phone to the computer and iTunes, then sync your library. I'm guessing that you have been syncing the old phone in the past, which would keep your library updated.

I have on airport express that is 5 years old, I now have a new wireless router. I want to use the express just for air waving iTunes. How do I set it up?
Hello 84wvu,
It sounds like you want to setup your Airport Express to Airplay music from iTunes. I found an article with steps to help you get this setup:
Connecting to an existing Wi-Fi network, exclusively for iTunes music
AirPort Express used exclusively for AirPlay by setting it up in Client Mode.
Choose this configuration if the computer containing your iTunes library may be out of direct range of the AirPort Express, but is within range of the Wi-Fi network.
How to Set It Up
Connect your AirPort Express to your home stereo or powered speakers.
From your computer, join the wireless network. Use the AirPort status menu in the menu bar on a Mac. On a Windows-based computer, hold the pointer over the wireless connection icon until you see your AirPort network name (SSID), and choose it from the list if there are multiple networks available. Enter the network password, if necessary.
Open iTunes on your computer and choose the AirPort Express(es) you wish to stream music through from the speakers pop-up menu in the lower-right corner of the iTunes window.
I also recommend reviewing the sections titled "Some things you should know about AirPort Express with AirPlay" and "Things to consider before you begin" in the full article:

If I have a new apple ID and password, do I lose all of my old apps if I sync to my new apple ID?
I'll ask my question differently. I have multiple devices and I sync them to my itunes account. For one of my devices, I gave it to a family member. I changed my itunes password and did not give it to the family member who has one of my devices. Will they be able to update applicable apps not having the new password?
Also, if that family member opens their own itunes account and purchase apps and sync the phone, will they lose all the apps that was purchased from my itunes account? -
I purchased Lightroom 5 and Elements 12 and installed them on a computer. I now have a new computer, and wish to install them on the new one. When I tried to do so, my only option seemed to be Adobe Cloud. When I was asked for my LR serial number, it was not accepted. Please help me install these two products; I prefer stand-alone, rather than a monthly fee. Thank you

Hi: I got my ipod in 2011 and synced it to my old computer. The music that Is on it is from imported cd, so I cannot transfer purchases to my new computer. I also want to keep the settings, favourites, folders, and information that is on my ipod. How do i sync it to new computer? Please Help.
You will also have to copy the iPod backup file to the new computer and then restore your iPod from backup using that backup. The file is located here:
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory
You can also make a backup on the new computer by conneting the iPod and right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting BackUp. When you retore from backup sometime the app folder structure get messed up. -
I have music on my PC that I would like to transfer to my Mac. I am getting rid of my PC and don't want to lose all the music on it. I was wondering if there is a way to sync the music on old computer to my new computer. I tried to sync my Ipod and Ipad to the Mac but because it is a new Itunes it was going to erase everything on my Ipod and Ipad. How do i avoid losing all music and apps on both of my devices?
Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
Type "move itunes library from pc to mac" or similar into the google search bar. -
Does anyone know how to transfer about 1 TB of pictures from my old pc remote hard drive to my new 4 TB remote harddrive on my Mac. I would like them to go directly from remote hard drive to remote hard drive without them clogging up my computer.
ThanksConnect both drives to the Mac and drag from the old to the new.
I have no idea if it will "clog" up your Mac. It will likely take quite a while (6 + hours on USB 2.0).
You might want to break it up in batches, or run it overnight. -
I would like to transfer my contacts from an old computer to new one both on Thunderbird
Got a new computer and I just wanted to transfer all the contacts in my address book from there to my new computer on Thunderbird rather than painstakingly doing it one at a time! Can I import them all?
I think I should clarify a bit more... Both my old computer and new computer have Thunderbird on them. I just want to "magically" get all my address book contacts from the old computer and older version of Thunderbird to the new computer and newer version (I assume) of Thunderbird. Is this possible? I am not REAL computer literate so the directions (if there are any) must be easy to understand.
