No... do not move programs.
About the iTunes library files
Your iTunes library files track the media you add to iTunes, how you've organized it, and other information such as playlists. By default, these two files are in your iTunes folder:
Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music/iTunes/
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\
Windows 7: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
Windows 8: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\

Since I downloaded the most recent version of iOS, my iPad and iPhone do not have all the music (from CD's) anymore that I have on our home computer iTunes Library. How can I get all our music onto the music libraries on the iPhone and iPad? Thanks!

Hi
Since we downloaded the latest version of iOS on our iPad and iPhone, and synchronized our music collection in the Cloud, we can no longer see on our iPad and iPhone the music from our CD's that we have on our home computer's iTunes library. We can only see music in the iPhone and iPad library that have been purchased on iTunes. How can we get all our music from our computer's iTunes librbary visible on the iPhone and iPad? Thanks, Nick

I had to get my hard drive replaced from Apple, I lost all of my music obviously. My question is, how can I get all my music off of my iPhone onto iTunes? Since it's a new hard drive, the iPhone isn't recognizing this as it's home computer.

You will need to use third-party software to transfer music from your phone to the iTunes Library. I recommend Phone to Mac - Pod to Mac | Macroplant.com.

What version of Pages are you referring to?
Basically if you are talking about the Table of Contents in Pages and want to have different character styles within paragraphs in the T.O.C. you will have to export the T.O.C. and bring it back in as text and change that.

You're welcome.
Going back to your original post:
5) Tried running Itunes in 'safe mode', running itunes as an administrator..nothing.
Was that iTunes' safe mode as opposed to Windows' safe mode? iTunes safe mode is invoked by holding down CTRL+SHIFT immediately after clicking the icon to launch iTunes and continuing to hold until this message pops up:
Click continue, then close iTunes and reopen. With luck iTunes now opens normally every time.

I have downloaded my new itunes how can i get all my music back

i have downloaded my new itunes how can i get all my music back

Itunes was deleted? Or your itunes library was deleted?
If it was just itunes, then your music should still be there. Just reinstall itunes.
Otherwise just use your backup copy of your comuter to put everything back.

My old computer, and external that I had everything backed up on broke. Majority of my music I got from burning CD's that I no longer have. How can I get all my music on my iPod onto my new iTunes?

Like I said, my back up broke and I can't get all of my music back by transfering purchases because I burned a lot of CD's I had collected from the past. I don't have any of those CD's anymore, so how can I get all of my music onto my new iTunes? Or am I just S.O.L.?

Phone to Mac,this app lets you easily copy, transfer the music, videos and playlists from any iPod or iPhone directly into iTunes on any Mac.

I got a new itunes account through my iphone but i still have all my music on my iphone but when i go to itunes its not there anymore, how do i get all my music from my phone to my computer??

i just got a new itunes acount because my other one wasnt working and it was fine i still had all my music on my phone, but then i had to restart my whole laptop back to the way it was when i first bought it because it was so slow, so when i downloaded itunes back and signed in none of my music was there. how do i download all my music from my iphone 5 to my laptop

I would not suggest starting anew AppleID as you will have problems with previous purchases.

How doesn't it work?
so when i downloaded itunes back and signed in none of my music was there.
Because it is part of your old AppleID (and your library does not just magically appear).
Did you make a backup of your HD?
jhow do i download all my music from my iphone 5 to my laptop
Authorize your computer for your old AppleID then File > Devices, select your device then Transfer purchases.
I highly suggest you sort out the issue with your old AppleID and continue to use that. Remove your personal info from the new AppleID and don't use it.

I have transferred my iTunes library from windows 7 pc to new windows 8 pc. Music was in alphabetical order by surname but new pc has some by surname some by first name and some not in alphabetical order. How can I get sorted?

Question Hi - I've transferred my iTunes library from windows 7 pc to one with windows 8. My library was in alphabetical order by surname but after transfer is now some by surname, some by first name, and some not in alphabetical order. How do I sort this out and also make sure that new downloads list by surname alphabetically?

Sorting in iTunes is often controlled by selecting different column headings. The sort order for any given column may be further modified by a sort value, e.g. Sort Artist affects the sort order of Artist. If you transferred the library properly all of the metadata should have remained intract and you simply need to select the a column that sorts as you want. If you had to import the library then there is the potential for tagging effects that could mean metadata entered previously didn't import with the media. Note that iTunes has no mechanism for automatically deciding which values are in <Forename> <Surname> order and could therefore be sorted as <Surname> <Forename>. The only automatic process drops leading articles (a/an/the) so that "The Doors" sort under D as "Doors".

HT1386 How can i get all my songs transfered onto the computer from Ipod classic so that my new ipod and my spouse can get the songs??

Hello
How can I transfer my songs off my old Ipod classic to the computer so that I can pick them up with my new Ipod 4. Also I want to transfere some songs to my spouses Ipod 5. Please let me know what I can do...
Thank you..
Alexandra

You can try the steps in that support article, but I doubt they'll help: you're trying to copy from an iPod Classic, to an iPod Touch. As far as I know, that can't be done using backup and restore. (But you can try—it wouldn't hurt.)
The question I have is, do you have the songs on your computer also? Or do you only have the songs on your iPod Classic? (Maybe from an old computer that crashed or something?)
If you have your songs on the computer, all you have to do is just set up your new iPod through iTunes on your computer and sync the songs from iTunes to your new iPod. You don't have to do anything with the old iPod Classic.
(Does that help?)

How can I get my calendar to appear on another computer?

I've got an iCal calendar running on my personal Mac. Now I have a new Mac for work and want that same calendar to appear there, allowing me to add/edit/delete events on that calendar from either Mac.
So I went into iCal and added my personal account, entering my Apple ID and password. That validated without a problem. I've got the account enabled and set to refresh calendars every 5 minutes. In iCloud System Preferences, I've got that ID set to share calendars.
Everything appears to be working fine, except none of the calendar events from my personal calendar appear on my work computer.
What's the solution?

Paul,
One of the best troubleshooting articles that I know of regarding iCloud Calendar syncing is: iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar
Give it a try and let us know what happens.

I lost my laptop I didn't back up and I just bought a new one .How can I get all the songs I bought in itunes store back to my new laptop??

can someone help me please?
I lost my laptop on Monday and I didn't back up. I just bought a new macbook air so I know I have to install all my applications and softwares again but I was told I could get my old itunes library I mean all the music I bought back in my new laptop. can someone tell me how to do it or if I can?

Sorry, but officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications and iBooks. It's your responsibility to make backup copies (as iTunes itself advises) in case something goes wrong with your system, as unfortunately it apparently did in your case, and you lose all the information on your hard drive. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
For apps, look here for instructions on redownloading. For songs, movies, and videos, if you don't have a backup of your purchased items, either on external media or another computer and don't have them on an iOS device (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad), you're probably out of luck and will need to repurchase your content.
If you have your content on an iOS device, post back and someone here can help you get them restored. Otherwise you can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service (select the "Music Purchases" or "Video Purchases" category, as appropriate, then "Lost or Missing Items". You'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) ") and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis. But don't count on it.
Regards.
