    I Just got a new labtop and already downloaded itunes onto it, but how do i get all my music onto my new computer?

    Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder form your old computer to /Music/ on your new computer.
    FYI: It's a laptop because it sets on top of your lap.
    Labtop is a roof over a science room.

  • Due to a divorce all my music is on my iTunes and iPod. I had to buy a new computer and want to transfer my Library to the new computer. How can I do this without using an external drive and use new computer just like I do the old one? Thanks.

    Due to divorce, all my music is on my iTunes and iPod. I have had to buy  a new laptop and want to transfer the library to the new computer before deauthorizing the old one. I dont want to have to use an external drive every time I want to listen to my music. How can I do this and have the same basic iTunes setup as before? HELP!

    You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
    iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year.  It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you.  Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices.  See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

  • I had an Apple account on my old Lap Top to which my iPad  and iPhone were syncd. I now have a new Lap Top and when I tried to access my apple ID on it I was asked to sign up for a new account. I can't use any of them.

    I need help. I had an apple account on my old Lap Top to which my iPad and iPhone were synced ?  I recently changed my lap top. My problem is the new lap top won't accept my apple I D it asked me to sing up for a new one which I did. After doing this I  tried to sync my iPad and phone to the new lap top which I was unable to do as they didn't recognise my new ID. HELP!!!!!! 

    I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
    Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
    I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

    Am I in the wrong "Store" as I cannot locate anything thing similar on the open itunes.
    Bob
    Bob,
    They did not mean the Store;  they meant the Store menu on the iTunes menu bar!  It is in a row with File, Edit, View, Controls, Store, and Help, as shown below.
    If you don't see the menu bar, enable it by holding the CTRL key and pressing B.

  • I have 2 iPhones using the same itunes on one computer, how do I sync each

    I have 2 iPhones using the same itunes on one computer, how do I sync each one separately and how do I sync my outlook contact separately.... please help

    I tried that and it says "The information on the iPhone "Michael's iPhone is synced with another user account. Do you want to sync this iPhone with the information from this user account instead?
    "Merge Info merges the information on this Iphone with the information fro this user account.
    "Replace Info" replaces the information on this iPhone with the information from this user account."
    I am not sure which user they are talking about. Is it my phone (the one that is hooked up) or the other phone?

    Do you mean iTunes library?
    iTunes account is what you use to make iTunes purcahses.
    iTunes library is what is on your computer.
    It says my phone can only be set up woth one itunes account. How do I remove the previous account?
    No, it tells you it can only be sync'd with one iTunes library.
    Simplest way is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder (thisis the iTunes library) from old computer to new computer.

  • 2 minis and itunes on one computer

    Is it possible to have 2 mini ipods with 2 different itunes on one computer?

    We have 2 minis (my brother and me) , one computer two different tastes in music. The link to help with this is no longer available. I need a way to have one iTunes, but not mix music or have the downloads mix/delete etc. Is there an easy way? I understand about having different users under user accounts, which we do and have disabled fastswitching. I'm not the brightest iPod user so if you have simple instructions it will be very much appreciated!

    When the iPods belong to different people, there are basically three ways of using multiple iPods on a computer and these involve:
    a) Sharing a single iTunes library
    b) Creating Multiple Libraries in a single user account
    c) Creating multiple user accounts (as suggested in the previous post).
    Note: When you are sharing an iTunes library, you don't have to set each iPod to update in the same manner, you can mix and match from the options below as each iPod has it's own update settings
    Sharing a Library and/or User Account
    If you want to share the one library, you can set either or all of the iPods so that they only get updated with only certain playlists (you can update from more than one if you wish): Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Windows
    Choosing the update option "Sync Music - Selected playlists" allows you to create a playlist specifically for the iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used some other time if you choose. You can read more about playlists at these links:
    iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
    How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
    Or you can choose to update any or all of the iPods manually and just drag whatever content you want to them: Managing content manually on iPod
    Multiple Libraries
    It's also possible to have multiple libraries in a single account. To create or access a second (or more) library, hold down the Shift key in Windows when launching iTunes 7. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to the other Library.
    Note: You can only have one Library open at a time and iTunes will default to the last library opened if you don't use the keyboard command to choose one. This can prove tricky when using multiple iPods, if you don't use the keyboard command you can risk syncing to the wrong library: Using multiple iTunes libraries -Windows
    Separate User Accounts
    Another option is to create a separate User account for each person on your PC or Mac. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one. The iPod can be set to update however the owner chooses, sync all, manual or sync specific playlists
    I don't use Windows so I can't give you a step by step on that one, however I can point you to another web page which should help you out. You can read about Windows user accounts here:
    Using Windows XP User Accounts
    Setting up new user accounts in Windows 2000
    Create A New User Account In Vista
