  • I need to transfer music from another itunes library to my current. my last computer crashed and i do not want to lose all of the music stored on my nano. Please help!

    I need to transfer music from another itunes library. My last compter hard drive failed. I have several hours of songs and I don't want to lose these. Is there a way to transfer music from another libray to current? I have recovered the purchased music but would like to transfer other. I have a mini without a disc drive so it makes loading the same music difficult. Please help.

  • What connection do I need to transfer music from my Ipad to a tablet?

    I'm attempting to find out what connection I need to transfer music from my IPad to a friend's tablet.

    This cannot be done. If the music exists on a computer in your iTunes library, or in a folder for that matter, you can transfer it that way. Otherwise, there is no way to perform this kind of action.

  • Old Hard drive crashed, need to transfer music from iPod to new computer

    Hello. My old hard drive crashed and I bought a new computer. Unfortunately I did not back up any files from my old computer and lost all files including iTunes music. All I have is the music from my iPod. I would like some help or if anyone knows anything about how to transfer the music from my iPod to my new computer. I guess my new computer is not the original authentic one in the itunes system and will not let me exchange music from my iPod to new computer. I would appreciate help if anyone has ideas. Thank bunches.

    Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
    The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    TuneJack Windows Only
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iGadget Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    SharePod Windows Only
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • IPod Nano, 6th generation, need to transfer music from iPod to new computer!

    Just recently my iPod went black. All other features work, so I am assuming the LED light is damaged. The 1 year warranty is up. It would be easier to just get a new iPod.
    However, this iPod is now working with a new computer. I have set up the device to only be changed manually so that I did not lose any of the music on the device.
    Surely there must be a way to take the music from my iPod and transfer it to the new computer? I am desperate for help; with my iPod damaged I feel like I have lost part of my soul!

    The suggestion above may work for you. I hope it does.
    For future reference, please keep in mind that the iPhone was never intended to be a a backup device. External hard drives are cheap and both Mac OS X and Windows 7 have built in automated backup utilities. Once you set it up, you just let it run.
    PLEASE use them!

  • Help!!! I need to transfer music from my iPhone to my MacBook

    I received a new MacBook Pro and I do not have all of my music on it as I did on my old computer. I have it on my iPhone how can I sync the music from my phone to my new MacBook?

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  It simply mirrors the selected content from your computer.
    The sync is one way -  computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You should copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.

  • Old Computer Crashed, Need to transfer music from iPod

  • How do i transfer music from my windows 7 computer to my iphone 4s when it says the device has timed out?

    when i connect my iphone 4s to my windows 7 pc, it says the device has timed out so cannot connect. what do i do? i need to transfer music from my pc to my phone but it wont connect. please help, thank you!

    Temporarily disable any security software on the computer, then attempt to sync content to the device.
    If that resolves the problem, contact whomever supports the security software (not Apple) and inquire how to prevent their software from intereferring with iTunes.

  • I need to put music from my iPhone to my mac

    A while ago I forgot the password to my apple id, and when i tried to reset it it wouldn't accept my birthday for the security questions and when I tried to reset it by email, I never got an email (I checked my spam and junk folders too). So I made a new Apple ID. I recently got a new Macbook Pro and I need to transfer music from my iPhone 5 to my mac, but it will only let me transfer the purchases i made with my new Apple ID. is there any way i can transfer the music that I bought with my previous apple id?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
    Creating a new Apple ID to address this issue should only be done when desperate to make a purchase.

  • HT1209 do i need the match that is 24.95 dollars to transfer music from a ipad to the computer

    do i need to buy match that is 24.95 dollars to transfer music from i ipad to a computer

    No. It won't help. iTunes Match catalogues an existing iTunes library on a computer not an iOS device.
