I've just got a new laptop and i cant copy music from my touch onto it HELP
Alright i'm a bit daft when it comes to all this technical stuff but i'm trying to 'drag' music from my IPOD to the new itunes i have just downlaoded on to my new laptop, is this possible?
Please help
no, because unlike other ipods, the ipod touch does not have a disk mode. you will need to transfer the music from your old computer like presumably you have done with all your other files, or reload it from CDs.

I just got a new laptop and when i went to go and buy something, it asked for some security question answers cause this was my first time buying on this computer. When i went to go type in the (so what I thought) correct answers, it said they were wrong. After numerous tries, it disabled my account. How do I get the answers sent to my email so i can start using my itunes again?
Go to item 12 in the AppleID FAQ for help with a disabled account.
You can also go to the AppleID support page and click manage your account for additional help. -

If, for some reason, you can't do it the way Templeton Peck describes, see:

I just got a new laptop and my new one says i cant have my ipod synced to another account and it wants to erase all my apps
That is right. An iDevice can only sync to one computer/iTunes library. If you still have the computer just cpy/export yur iTunes libray to a USB stick or similar and import it ito the new computer. Also copy the iPod backup file to the new computer. That file is locaed here:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Transfer iTunes purhases to the new computer by:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
Then let iTunes erase you iPod and restore the iPod from the backup and then sync. -

What do you mean "not working"? That could mean multiple different things.

Make sure the computer is authorized. From the iTunes menu bar click Store / Authorize This Computer.

I got a new laptop and I cant buy songs because its asking me security questions i didnt set, what do i do, I got a new laptop and I cant buy songs because its asking me security questions i didnt set, what do i do
If you've never set them then are you able to log into your account via the 'manage your Apple ID' button/link on http://appleid.apple.com, click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of the page that you are taken to, and can you then set them on the right-hand side of that screen ?
If not then is there a reset link beneath the two questions that show on that screen ? The link will only show if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 -
I know this is probably a very common question, but I've heard too many different answers so I'd just like to make sure I know the correct one.
So I just got a new laptop yesterday because my other one fried.. I just downloaded itunes and was just about to plug in my ipod but then hesitated because I didn't know whether if I would lose all my songs or not. Will I lose my songs if I connect it to the new itunes? Thank You for your help!From your OLD computer...
Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

An Added Bonus is that you will have a Backup of iTunes. -

I paid and downloaded the creative suite to my old laptop a year or so ago, do i have to de-activate my last one before doing anything on my new computer? I just don't want to have to pay again and I'm not sure what steps i should be taking to put it on my new laptop.
Simply download CC on the new laptop and sign in with your current Adobe ID. It may ask you to sign out of all other computers to use CC on this laptop. That's okay. You can use this on 2 computers, but not simultaneously.

[lease help
You should copy the music from your old computer and put it on an external hard drive or flash drive. Then plug in that drive to your new computer and drop all the music into itunes from the drive on your new computer.
If you don't have access to your old computer, you will have to buy a recovery program that can copy the music from your iPod. I highly recommend iRip from "the little app factory". http://thelittleappfactory.com/irip/
The program is about $20 and it will save you from losing all your music. I have used it to save my massive music collective on my iPod classic when my old windows machine crashed. iRip also will let you grab 100 tracks for free off your iPod so you can see for yourself that the program actually works!
iTunes stores music in these directories:
Windows: C:// ... /user/My Documents/My Music/iTunes
Mac OS: /User/Music/iTunes
Hope this helps! -
HT204053 We just got a new computer and one of us may lose our Itune account. Help!
Both my husband and I have had separate ITunes accounts on our computer that we download and purchase our own music into. Now we also each have IPhones and separate apple IDs for downloading and purchasing music. We just got a new computer which only allows one Apple ID. What do we do? Will one of us have to give up our account and lose our music library?

If you're using iTunes 11 on Windows, press the Alt and S keys. Otherwise, click on Store at the top of the iTunes application window(Windows) or the top of the computer's screen(Mac OS X).
