I need help!  I have moved my music to my new computer and now...

My music won't play. ITunes tells me that it can't find the music and opens a window to seach, when I take it to the music folder, it then plays the music. How can I do this for all of my music instead of one by one?
Help, desperate and tired!

lasnow,
Try this.
1. Take all of your music files (that play) and move them to your my music folder.
2. Once the songs are in that folder, go into iTunes and delete all of your songs from your libary.
3. Now select all of your music in the my music folder drag and drop into iTunes.
4. Once iTunes is finished importing your songs, go to Advanced>Consolidate Library**
**When you consolidate your library it takes all of your music and places it into the iTunes music folder so it will allways run out of the same file location.
Hope this Helps,
DJFX

  • I have moved my itunes to a  new computer and now my ipod will lnot sync with new line up

    i have moved mu itunes to a new computer and my ipod will not sync with new music.

    If you are using automatic syncing, you may need to set up the iPod's Music tab in iTunes.
    Select the iPod in iTunes.  There is a row of "tabs" (starting with Summary).  Select Music there.  This is the Music tab, where you tell iTunes how to sync the iPod with songs.  Sync Music is checkmarked for automatic syncing.
    If your entire iTunes music library can fit on the nano, you can choose to sync Entire music library.  Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  Then, create your selection of songs below.  For example, if you want to keep it simple, create a new playlist in iTunes.  Put ALL songs you want on the iPod on that playlist, including songs from the newly added music.  Back on the Music tab, find and checkmark that new playlist under Playlists.
    When you click Apply, your selection of songs on the Music tab syncs to the iPod, replacing its current content.  Going forward, any changes that are related to the Music tab settings sync automatically when you connect the iPod, or when you click Sync.  So, if there is a playlist with your "iPod songs," you can just update that playlist (add and remove songs) whenever you want; iTunes updates the iPod with the same changes at the next opportunity.

  • I moved all of my music to my new computer and now my ipod touch stops the song at end of it why and how do i fix it easily

    i moved all of my music to my new computer and now the songs stop before the end of them or it skips to the next one on the ipod how can i fix it easily

    Assuming your library was in the standard layout before you started move the rest of the iTunes folder to the root of the external drive, move the iTunes Media folder inside it, and shift-start iTunes to connect to library file at \iTunes\iTunes Library.itl.

  • I recently moved over ITunes to a new computer and now it will not let me download any of the old music to my IPod.

    We used whatever Windows program to transfer over all the files.  Don't really know what we are doing, but the music is on my computer and it won't let me transfer to my iPod.  This is incredibly frustrating since I've never really had a good experience with iTunes.  I just don't use it very much.  I feel like I have to be missing something stupid.  Please help. 

    On the new computer launch iTunes.
    From the iTunes menu bar (top of your screen) click Store > Authorize This Computer
    Now try syncing your iPod.

    THIS IS FROM ANOTHER POST.
    PLEASE DON'T POST IN CAPS LOCK, AS IT IS SIMILAR TO
    SCREAMING.
    This sounds like your alarm is set. Go to
    Extras-->Clocks and make sure that the alarms are
    off. Make sure there are no alarms set for your
    calendar either.

    Hi,
    I believe the error is due to the checksum process which doesn't have that additinoal field's information. You can try creating the form again with the additional field, or if needed you can go with the Manual tabular form.
    Thanks,

  • I have moved from the UK to New Zealand and Itunes will not accept my new Zealand bank details, as a result nothing will work on my phone and I cant access emails!

    I have moved from the UK to New Zealand and Itunes will not accept my new Zealand bank details, I am trying to change my details on the Iphone 4s

    Do you have a new Apple ID to use in NZ? If not open iTunes Store. Log out of your old Apple ID, then try to login. Select Create Apple ID from the dialog that appears. Make a new Apple ID for NZ with a NZ email address. Once that is approved and verified, log into the iTunes Store with the new Apple ID. This should fix all other issues.
    Change iTunes Store Country on an iDevice
    1. Tap Settings;
    2. Tap iTunes & App Stores;
    3. Tap View Apple ID;
    4. Enter your user name and password;
    5. Tap Country/Region;
    6. Tap Change Country/Region;
    7. Select the region where you will be located;
    8. Tap Done.

    I switched my music to a new computer and all the music doubled how can I get rid of 4500 duplicates songs? Will Music Match get rid of the extras for me?

    The iPod is not a storage device, all songs should reside on a computer and you can only sync to one machine. However, if these songs were purchased from iTunes you can reload them (see link). If not, and you have no backup, then they are gone.
