I need to know how to transfer purchased items in iTunes to my library

I have been trying to restore my iPad mini through my MacBookPro, but I get a window saying this: "There are purchased items on the iPad that have not been transferred to your iTunes library. If you restore this iPad, these items will be erased and you will have to purchase them again. Are you sure you want to continue?"
I went to my iTunes  and opened my music, but I cannot figure out how to transfer my purchased items to my Library. I always thought that every purchase was placed automatically in the library
I do not want to purchase these items again, how do I work it out??
Thanks!!

  • How to transfer purchased item from itunes to an ipod

    how to transfer purchased item from itunes to an ipod? Spent about an hour and cannot figure out how to do that The best result this far was smth. like this to Sync a book means that all your music, songs, TV show and movies will be erased. What a strange Apple logic!

    That message indicate that you are trying to sync with other than the one syncing computer/iTunes library that yo can have. You have to two choices:
    - Make this computer your syncing computer by:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    - The manual method of syncng specified here:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    or
    iTunes 11 for Mac: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    The manaul method on works for music and videos on other than your one syncing computer.

  • How to transfer purchased music from iTunes

    Can anyone tell me how to transfer purchased music from iTunes to my iPod without first downloading to a CD?

    If you are using the latest version of iTunes (4.6), then you need to make sure your ipod software is up to date also.
    When you have done this, authorize your music in iTunes by playing a few seconds of it, and it should transfer by whatever synching method you choose.

    If you have done all this and still can't transfer it, post back with more info about what is happening.
    EDIT.
    Grrrr......must learn to type faster!

    I got a new macbook pro and now I need to know how to remove the prior owners itunes id from my computer?

    If you purchased a computer from another person, you need to wipe it clean.  To do this, click on the link - Erasing disks securely 
    Depending on your model Macbook Pro...
    Start up from your install disc, go to Disk Utility and select the disk and click erase - to securely erase data click Security Options and Erase Free Space which will entirely wipe your disk, overwriting it with zeros so that no data is recoverable.

  • Topic: How to transfer purchased music from iTunes

    Since the item <Topic: How to transfer purchased music from iTunes> is "locked" (whatever that means - typically, I got an error message when I clicked on the link!!) - I would like to state that despite downloading the iPod updater to deal with this problem, I cannot update my iPod because "the updater does not have a firmware image". I deeply resent not being able to move 100 tracks I have bought and paid for with my hard-earned money to my iPod. I trust that Apple will sort out this mess forthwith.

    I have now solved this problem (almost by accident...).
    Unfortunately, before you can update the iPod software on the older iPods you have to first do a Restore Factory Settings from the iPod updater (otherwise "updater cannot find firmware image'). Let the 'Restore' process run right through (it ends when the iPod fully reboots). You can then run the iPod software updater to Update from iPod 2.2 to 2.3 software, but afterwards you have to recopy all your songs from iTunes into the now empty iPod. I reloaded my iPod last night, and it took about 20-30mins using firewire for c.2400 songs. It worked for me, anyway. And the interface with iTunes is an improvement. Could have done without all the wailing and gnashing of teeth, though. Thank you, Apple.

  • Message says to transfer purchased items to iTunes, but I've synched!

    I just clicked the Update button for 3.2.2 and I got the strange message--
    "There are purchased items on your iPad that have not been transfered to your iTunes library."
    I do not understand. I had just synched it. I synched a second time, no change! Same message. Which includes
    "You should transfer these items to iTunes."
    I thought that's what synching was for! Would appreciate any suggestions on this.
    If this helps, I did notice that Books on the iPad include several that are not on the iTunes book tab. They were freebies downloaded from Google Books. Several are PDFs, IIRC.

    Also, IIRC, several of them are from Project Gutenberg.
    Well, what do you know? First, I discovered that iTunes now has a Home Sharing feature, which I am presuming established a network between our iPad and the MBP. That didn't work.
    But then I discovered under File, the commend "Transfer purchases from iPad [name of iPad]".
    That fixed the problem!
    I am still baffled, though. Synching does not transfer all purchased items from the iPad! I always thought it did. Sync Books says it will remove all music, songs, TV shows, etc. from iPad, so that's not an option. And the Home Sharing seems to be one way--only to the iPad.
    I hope someone can enlighten me about this. I'll bet I've missed some settings somewhere that could fix each of these!

    Any music purchased through the iTunes store can be downloaded again for free as long as you are signed in with the Apple ID you used for the original purchase.  Any other music you had in iTunes should be easily accessible in your system back up or from the CDs you ripped from originally.
