Hi Le Etta,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
Take a look at the article below, it provides details and instructions for multiple ways of moving the music from an old computer to a new one.
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
Method
Considerations
Home Sharing
The easiest option, as long as your new computer is already connected to the Internet.
External drive
Requires additional hardware but backs up your iTunes library.
Transferring purchases
Fastest, but only moves the content you purchased from the iTunes Store. Also requires an iPhone, iPad, or iPod with the content on it.
Windows Migration Assistant
Works best for migrating from an old PC to a new Mac, and transfers more than iTunes.

I have downloaded itunes songs into my library and now I want to import them into my DVD program, but they are MP4 files and I need them to be wma. files, can I and how do I change them?

I have downloaded itunes songs into my library and now I want to import them into my Adobe Premiere Elements DVD program. When I did it before, they were already .wma files, now they are MP4 files and they won't go. How do I change these MP4 files into .wma files?

You got the new iphone????? I have same problem. I transferred audiobooks to device to find no audiobooks on device (despite it being in iTunes as if it was). Have you found a solution????? I even tried to change import settings on format transfer but hasn't worked.

How do I keep my emails in Apple mail after they have been downloaded from exchange server

Hi
I have an urgent issue with my work email. I have used Apple Mail to read and store my work email right off my work Exchange server - without any problem.
All was fine, and for what seems a very long time, I happily used both my win 7 laptop at work and my 2 Apple computers at home and during travel as well as my iPhone - anywhere.
However, now, there is a new policy at work where all email older than 3 months (sigh!!) has been removed to an "online archive" of the "emc SourceOne" - which is a non-crossplattform service - and not accessible from other than a windows PC with supported browser (not including SafarI). (Windows revenge) I have lost all access to these on my iPhone, which is a shame - not Apples fault, though. This is not about blaming Apple.
However, I still have all my "older than 3 months" email in theory safely kept on both of my Apple computers - presumably safely stored in Apple Mail.
Here is my question: I have not dared to connect either of these imacs / mbas to Internet - at all - in fear of losing my precoius work emails. I have feared that the exchange server will kill all these "older than 3 months" email kept there - as soon as it gets a chance to do so.
So I urgently need an educated advise. Googling any kind of "apple" questions seems to be far less productive now than a few years ago...
1. Can I safely connect Apple Mail to internet without losing my already downloaded exchange emails?
2. If not - how should I proeceed to get these files safely transferred to my iCloud email?
Any and all help will be deeply appreciated!
Best regards, from a chilly evening in Oslo, Norway

When you connect your Mac back up to the Exchange server, it will “sync” what is on the server to your Mac, losing all those older emails. Don’t reconnect until you have moved them.
To move them, Drag them from the Exchange folders on Mail and into an iCloud folder. The emails will then be stored on iCloud instead of on the exchange server.
You could also just create mailboxes on your Mac and drag them into that. They wouldn’t be accessible to other devices, but you’d have them on your Mac.
To create new Mailboxes, Click the Add ( + ) button at the bottom of the Mailbox list and choose New Mailbox…
You can choose where that folder is stored, either under On My Mac for a local mailbox, or in your iCloud account which will make a folder on the iCloud server.
In the future, you need to start moving your emails to those independent mailboxes as you file them, and set up a rule that will move anything older than 50 days into a “catch-all” Mailbox you create on that same location (either On My Mac or iCloud). Mail Preferences, Rules.

Powershell command to migrate Exchange 2007 mailbox databases with a legacy name, & import them into a new 2007 instance, with a new name.

Hi All. I am currently at the later stage of provisioning a new CCR Exchange 2007 migration (to
virtualise old Exchange 2007 hardware) for 5,000 users & have a quick question.
I have created around 15 newly named storage groups, & have named 1 new DB per group, with the same name (let's say New-DB-1), residing within them. The problem I have, is the old legacy DB's have different names (let's say Old-DB-1) & I need
to import them into the new storage groups, to match the new names. So far I can import/export between old & new OK if both old & new DB names\folders etc. names marry up perfectly, but are unable to if there not the same. Does anyone have any thoughts
on how best to tackle this, as this is one of the final hurdles stopping the migration? Many Thanks, John

Hi All
Many Thanks for the feedback.
The terminology 'migrate' was used based around the fact I will be decommissioning the old 2007 physical environment. This is after moving all DB's over to the new newly created Virtual environment that will host all roles.
The solution I ended up using yesterday, was the following:
1) Dismounted the relevant named DB (NEWDB) in the new environment.
2) I then ticked the 'This database can be overwritten by a restore option' box.
3) Copied over the old named DB (OLDDB) to the same location, & overwrote using the new name (NEWDB).
4) Re-mounted the (NEWDB).
5) Ran the following 2 PowerShell commands:
Get-mailbox –database OLDDB | move-mailbox –targetdatabase NEWDB -configurationonly:$true
Get-MailboxDatabase NEWDB | ResetSearchIndex.ps1 -force
6) Checked to make sure the clients were working ok, in the now the new (NEWDB) environment.
Rich: Many thanks for your PS script, which I will test with future DB moves & provide feedback

How do I get Outlook Email from Exchange Server configured on iPhone?

My business email is hosted on MS Exchange Server via Outlook and is distributed to my networked PC and VPN home PC and laptop. My IT manager has enabled IMAP on the Exchange Server. I am unable to get my email account on the iPhone to receive or send mail through my Server. My domain names have been entered in the format "exchange.[domainname].com, and my user ID and password has been input for both incoming and outgoing email. The iPhone cannot seem to talk to the server and retrieve or send mail. Does anyone know what to do on the iPhone to be able to communicate with the server? (I am aware of the various limitations of the iPhone vs. Windows Smart Phones in terms of being able to use Microsoft Push Email and to be able to synch calendars, contacts etc. with a corporate server and/or multiple computers. Hopefully Apple will license ActiveSync for the iPhone to provide for this functionality, as recently rumored on a few blogs.)

Thanks for your response. I've used the path that I had successfully used for years with my Windows Smartphone to no success. Neither advanced Apple telephone support nor my IT guy could get this to work. I have implemented a workaround to have my server automatically forward my emails to a new Yahoo account which then pushes to my iPhone. Definitely an unsatisfactory and incomplete solution, however.
Editorial comments for Apple: Windows ActiveSync was so much more sophisticated in terms of being able to deal with server-based email, contacts, calendar and for users with multiple computers - i.e. office, home and laptop. I would have expected Apple to introduce something at least as functional and sophisticated or to licence ActiveSync. My user capabilities are substantially downgraded in these areas with my new iPhone and absent a quick software upgrade or licence of ActiveSync I will be unable to function productively with my iPhone. While we're at it, Apple, with my multiple email accounts set up on the iPhone, which is a great feature, I have no easy way to tell in which account to find a new email. I am forced to update the inbox in every single account to try to find where my new mail is going - some new mail indicator next to the account name (as opposed to showing how many unread emails exist with each account) needs to be implemented. The phone hardware, other than the batter - which doesn't even last me for the full course of a workday - is great, but software has only gotten to about 75% of where it needs to be.

I have an ipad2 from the UK and iTunes vouchers. I am going to get a new ipad/mini. Can I transfer everything over and can I use the vouchers?

I have an Ipad from the UK and some iTunes vouchers. I am going to get a bp newer ipad/mini. Can I transfer app/music/photos etc on pro new device and can I use iTunes vouchers forum the UK?

You can sync your content to a new device but you cannot transfer vouchers from one country's store to another country's store if that is what you want to do.

I have a 1st gen shuffle and a nano that I would like to use with a new computer. What do I need to do?

I have a first gen iPod Shuffle with its software installed on a Windows XP computer. I installed the software for an iPod Nano, and was then unable to access my music library with the Shuffle. This is not my main issue that my question is about. I would like to be able to use both of these devices on a new Windows7 computer. What, exactly, do I need to do? (ie - deauthorize my old computer, uninstall or install/reinstall iTunes, etc.) Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

"Do I need to deauthorize my old computer first?"
Not unless you want to. You can have up to 5 computers authorized.
" And should I install the Nano's iTunes software, since it is newer than the Shuffle's, before syncing?"
Itunes is itunes. I don't know what you mean by "Nano's iTunes software". You need to install itunes.
"Or, should I just download the most current iTunes software, and then plug in both devices and sync?"
Yes.
Hope all goes smoothly.

I have exported my bookmarks to an external drive. I want to import them back and they dont show when i click import..

When i click import, then open external hard drive the bookmarks dont show. If i open the external drive via 'start/computer' i can see them in it ok,.

Yes, that is a JSON backup, so you need to remove the .html file extension and add a .json file extension instead.<br />
If Windows is stubborn and doesn't want to change the file type but merely changes the name to bookmarks.json.html then try to add quotes around the name when renaming or (temporarily) disable hiding the file extension.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
Note that restoring a JSON backup will replace the current bookmarks, so you lose any bookmarks that aren't in the backup unless you first export the bookmarks to an HTML file.<br />
Then you can import that file after you've restored the JSON backup.

How to recover everything from wd time capsule to a new mac mini

I just purchased a new mac mini and when i recieve the new mac mini, what do i need to do in order to recover everything i had on the old mac mini from my external drive. Any help would be appreciated.
Eric

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
During the initial setup of your Mac mini, it will ask you to restore a backup. Connect the external drive, select the option to restore a backup from an external disk and follow the steps. You will be able to select what you want to restore. If you want more information > http://pondini.org/OSX/SetupLion.html

HT2486 i have 2000 email address in my pc how do i transfer them into my new mac

I have over 2000 email addresses on my pc and would like to transfer them into my new mac address book how can i do that?
Shainaz

From About Windows Migration Assistant:
Outlook and Outlook Express contacts, and Windows Contacts from the Contact home directory are transferred to Address Book.
Migration Assistant will create a new user account and copy things into it.
If you want to put them into an existing user account, see the Manually Migrating section of Switch 101: Migrate your Windows files or system to your Mac, especialliy the Tip, "export PC contacts to vCards, and import them into your Mac Address Book"

Copy contacts from Exchange ActiveSync to Regular?

The contacts on my phone are sync'd through my ex-company's exchange server. After leaving there, I no longer have access to the exchange server, but I dont want to lose all of my contacts. Instead of turning off the exchange account and deleting all of my contacts, I would like to just make them regular contacts and then sync as usual with my computer. Is that possible?
(Actually I would like to sync them with my gmail contacts, ideally over-the-air, but that is strictly bonus points! To start with, I just dont want to lost my contacts!)

I have suggestion! (not a tested solution =])
This is from the cuff as I sit here wondering how to make my e-mail notifier louder.
Export your GAL to an .xls file (spreadsheet).
Import your contact spreadsheet into a gmail or yahoo mail account.
Sync your iphone with the gmail address book and chose to MERGE the list.
I havent had a chance to test it but I was thinking that because they "merged" you can disconnect from the gmail/yahoo mail and keep the contacts sync'd.
Well that's my suggestion.... I wonder if it works =]
have a grrrreat day!

Addresses from Exchange Server not listed in Address Book

My new 17" MacBook Pro with Leopard 10.6.1 has hooked up with our exchange server just great! I see my exchange account in the Address Book but the contacts in the Exchange Global List are not listed. If I do a search, the search returns proper addresses, but only with a search. The icon before the Exchange account is blue instead of the brown one for the other mail groups. All of my manually entered addresses are there. Is there a way to have the addresses from Exchange downloaded and synchronized with Address Book so they are visible all the time?

Same problem here. The contacts from Address book are copied to the Nokia, but the contacts in Nokia are not copied to the Address book

Migrate from Exchange Server 2011 to Mac OSX Lion Mail Server

Hi all,
I'm looking to migrate from Exchange Server 2011 to Mac OSX Lion Mail Server. I work for a company with roughly 30 employees and they use exchange for mail, contacts and calendars. We want to take full advantage of OSX Server and to completly get off of exchange.
What are the best ways to do this? Are there any tools available to help this process?

I agree with the points made by Strontium90. If you have any PCs then Apple's mail/contacts/calendar software is a poor choice. Kerio Connect as a mail/contacts/calendar server would not only support Macs but would also do a good job supporting PCs running Outlook.
If you are going to become a pure Apple site, then you could use just the Apple software and this would be cheaper than using Kerio. For 30 users this might be a suitable solution, however even in a pure Apple environment many people prefer Kerio. For example I find Kerio much more pleasent when dealing with email addresses across multiple domains, email aliases, email group addresses, and so on. Kerio also has built-in email archiving, that is keeping a record of all emails. Kerio also provides a web-browser client for accessing email, calendar and contacts. It is worth noting that as standard Mountain Lion Server no longer includes a webmail feature. While I personally find the Kerio webclient rather ugly it does work.
There are some annoyances I have with Kerio, firstly they have always charged a 'maintenance' fee for their software. This provided access to software updates, and in the past also provided access to Kerio technical support. Unfortunately they now only let you make two (2) support cases per year for that cost, and you now have to pay extra for any more cases. Also while they added support for EWS (Exchange Web Service) to allow using Outlook 2011 for Mac as a supported email client, they did a poor job of this so that it does not work properly with any other EWS compatible client. This means it will not work in EWS mode with Apple Mail, nor with Outlook for Windows. While there are other ways to connect these other clients, this seems a foolish move and there have been plenty of requests to fix this.
Apple's Mail client uses EWS to connect to a 'real' MS Exhange server.

I have my contacts from exchange server on my iPhone. I want to import them to my new MAC Mini. What do I need to do?
