I have downloaded hundreds of songs from CD's.  How can i get them to my computer?

I have downloaded hundreds of songs from CD's and have purchased a new iPhone5.  I moved the music from phone to phone, but how can I get them into my iTunes library on my Mac?

2 easy ways, either works...
Locate the music files within Finder, select them (you can do them all at once if you like), then drag and drop them onto the iTunes icon located in your Dock.
Or select the files, RIGHT CLICK, and select OPEN WITH > ITUNES
iTunes will auto import them and then you are good to go!

    I have downloaded songs from CD but I can't get them onto iTouch.  I have synced -- nothing.  I am using iTunes 11.

    Do others songs sync?
    Do apps sync?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?
    How are you syncing? See:

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you made a Time Machine backup before deleting the applications, you can recover them from your backup. Just go to the Applications folder, and open the Time Machine app, so you will be able to recover the applications just navigating through your backups.
    However, there are some applications that won't work after doing this, because they require other system files. In this case, you will have to download the apps again from the Internet and install them using the installer

    Hello!!!
    This realy works??

    Where is the backup of the media and other important files from the computer?  Ultimately, it is the users responsibility to ensure that backups exists. Waiting until there is a problem to decide to do a backup is not smart.  Would you wait until a fire started in your home to call the insurance company and inquire about homeowners/renters insurance????
    In the event that no backup exists (stop being lazy.... keep backups of YOUR data and other important files):
    If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, it is possible to redownload music via iCloud from purchased history.
    If you are not in the US or for some reason cannot run iTunes 10.3 or later, contact iTunes customer support and ask very nicely for the opportunity to redownload the content.  They are not required to provide this opportunity.
    It is also possible to transfer content from an iDevice that was purchased via iTunes.  On the new computer, sign into the iTunes account, authorize the computer, connect the device then select File > Transfer Purchases.
    The simplest method of all is to transfer or copy the media (and other important files) from the old computer or the backup of the old computer.  Typing "move itunes library" into the search bar here or into google will reveal step by step instructions on how to do this.

    There are two ways to have photos on the iPhone. First is the camera roll, these are the pictures you have taken with the iPhone camera. The second are pictures that are synced to the iPhone through iTunes from the computer you sync with.
    The pictures in the camera roll are designed to by imported to the computer just like photos taken with any digital camera. They are not designed to be only stored on the iPhone.
    If you imported the pictures to the computer or performed a backup of the iPhone prior to the attempt to upgrade software on the phone,all you need to do is restore from a backup. If you did not create a backup, you can look for the last backup you made if the pictures would have been included in that backup. Unfortunately, in that last case, you will also lose everything you have done since that backup.
    If you have been backing up or syncing with iCloud, the pictures should be there.  If you have not done any of the above, the pictures are lost.

  • TS4036 I have deleted all my apps from my library how do I get them all back?

    I have deleted all my apps from my library on itunes and now they are all in my trash can and I don't know how to get them back or even if I can. Will somebody please help????

    On your computer, go to iTunes and then the iTunes store and the App Store.  In the right panel there's a "Purchased" link.  Go there and redownload the apps you want.

  • I have a load of songs in a checklist, how can I get the ones checked to play?

    I have a load of songs that I have check boxes next to. I want to get the ones that the user checks to play one after the other like a playlist?
    How can I do this? I'm new to macros etc.
    Thank you!

    Check boxes won't work. You need an actual player that supports playlists.  
    Have a look at Pickle Player.

  • My computer crashed and we got a new one - I logged in to my Itunes account but all my songs are gone.  How can I get them back?

    We got a new computer and have logged in to Itunes, but where did my music go?  How can we find it?

    They will not magically appear on another computer.
    Your music will only be where you put it.
    Copy it from the old computer or your backup copy of the old computer.
    You buy one and only one download.  It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
    Hope all goes well.

  • I unchecked all the songs in my library, how can I get them checked back?

    I was trying to uncheck some songs in my library so that they would not transfer to my ipod. I guess i held down shift or control to uncheck the group when I had a few songs selected. Now all my songs in my library are unchecked. I want to update my ipod but I am afraid that when I plug it back up that it will erase all the songs off my ipod since they all are unchecked in my library. I have quite a bit of music in my library and do not want to recheck the songs that I want to transfer again. Is there any way to rebuild the original checked songs?
    thanks

    hey thanks, I really wanted to check only the
    original songs i had checked, some 15 gigs worth
    instead of the 30+ gigs i have. I wanted to know if
    there was a way recheck only the original songs
    instead of clicking every single song
    No, there is not.
    You might find it advisable to make a smart playlist of "Checked Songs" and to occassionally back this playlist up into a normal playlist. This way, if you accidently check or uncheck everything, all you have to do is to pick your checked backup playlist and check all the songs in it.
    You can make a Smart Playlist for checked songs by using a rule of 'Comment is not dkjbdsk' (or some other nonsense) and turning on the "Match Checked Songs Only" flag. Then you can back that up into a non-smart playlist by selecting all the songs in the smart playlist and using the File->New Playlist from Selection menu option.

  • I have deleted all my photos from my mac, how can I transfer them from my iphone4 or iPad back to my mac

    Can anyone help? I have by mistake deleted all of my photos on my Mac. I want to transfer the library from my iphone 4 or my ipad back to my Mac.

    There is no syncing process to move synced photos from an iOS device back to a computer.
    If you have only a small amount of photos you can email them to yourself.
    There are third party applications available online, some free and some at cost that will pull pictures off your device and back to the computer if your number of photos is great.
    In the past I have user PhoneView with great success.
