I want all of my music in the same place?
Is it possible to accomplish with iTunes 11? If so how? I don't want to move any of my other media, just the music.
Select the Music source, switch to Songs view, press CTRL+A to select all files, right-click, click on Consolidate Files. Any files that were stored outside the iTunes Media folder will be copied into it. You need to manually delete the originals. Or use my script ConsolidateByMoving to move files into the media folder without leaving duplicates behind.

How do I get my music from dropbox in the same place as music bought on iTunes?
I have purchased a few songs in iTunes but most of my music I transferred to my iphone 4S via Dropbox. I put the dropbox songs in a music player I downloaded but I can't transfer the songs I purchased through iTunes. How can I get all my music in the same place?
ios music player can only play synced from itunes or bought from itune store
so you need to add the music on your computer from dropbox so itunes have a link to it
and then sync it to the ios device -

I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. As of now i realize this was a mistake. Starting on a new computer now. I cant get my music to transfer from the itunes folder on the old computer? I keep getting error "Can't Read from the source file or disk." Whenever I got to folder properties its always checked read only. But when i play the song it works just fine. Im sure this is just because I added music into itunes folder but is there anyway to fix it?
WMA files are 'window media audio' files, which is a Microsoft format. If you want to add them to your iTunes library on your Mac then you will need to convert them into a compatible format first. If you still have your windows machine then iTunes for Windows can convert them from WMA to MP3 format : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24158701#24158701
Or try a search for, for example, 'convert wma to mp3' to find programs to convert them. -
Can't get my Music off of my iPhone 4...
My computer died & had to get a new one, so now I cannot sync my iPhone 4 with the new computer, without losing all of my Music, because the only Music I have is on the iPhone 4 only, not on the computer. No Backup anywhere : (
If I choose to sync it tells me all of the Content that does not match the iTunes library on the computer will be erased, do you want to proceed & I have to say no.
How do I replace the music library on my Computer with the Music on the iPhone?
I got my pictures off because you can access them when you connect the iPhone using Windows 7 but you cannot see any of the music so you cannot access it when using windows so don't know what to do...
Help...The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer. -
I have just downloaded all of my music into the new itues, however; all of my music has an "!" but it and I get an error that says " original file can not be found".
How do I get my music back?Ok, I had a glitch, forced to restart, and lost my train of thought.
Reinstalling iTunes should fix the major issue that might have gone wrong, perhaps your explaination points will disappear and everything will be peachy again.
But if they don't, you can open the XML file in iTunes Folder using a Text edit program to see what the common pathname is to the iTunes Music folder or where your content is located.
If you moved the itunes folder, it needs to go back.
I can't download iTunes to my Vista virtual machine to test it out right now because iTunes is down, so I can't verify the pathname, perhaps your issue and the iTunes being down are related somehow?
You don't want to import all your music again, but it's a option, but you lose all your playlists, that's what I'm trying to recover.
If oyu don't have a whole lot of playlists, then simply select all the explaimation point music and delete, select File from the menu and import your itunes folder again. -
Just got my 1st iMac, trying to load my iTunes library, but it only seems to want to load "purchased" music, not the music I've loaded by disc etc
Easiest way is to use Migration Assistant application in /Applications/Utilities/ on your computer.
This will migrate all yoru user data from old computer.

Is it possible to store all my itunes music in the cloud and retrieve as needed from my iphone
Bought my wife an 16G Iphone 5 for Christmas. She went to upgrade to 32G the day after Christmas and was told she'd have to pay a $35 restocking fee? She needs the extra storage for music thus my question: is it possible to store all my itunes music in the cloud and retrieve as needed?
Good morning K
A couple of things.
1. Anything you buy from itunes can be stored on the icloud free. It doesn't count against storage.
2. Music not from itunes can be stored in the cloud free up to the storage limit.
3. If you use and pay for itunes match (25$ a year) it will match as much of your music against the Apple library and then only store your non-matched music in the cloud. This is great for large libraries.
4. When you request a song from the cloud it needs to be connected to the net to download it so you can play it. It then is stored on your iphone. You may eventually want to delete it from the iphone but it will be available in the icloud for future download.
Just don't agree to "delete from icloud also.

Changed all the music to the same artist
I some how managed to change all the music to the same artist and Album and i wanted to know if there was a way to fix it without having to manually change each one individually?
Dear Domi,
Certain changes in iTunes can be undone if you notice them immediately and don't touch anything else. Look in your Edit menu; is there an Undo? -

I want all my purchase music on this computer how do i do that?
Put it there.
Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of the old computer to your new one.
It will not magically appear anywhere. It will only be where you put it. -
My husband and I share one computer. We want to be able to share the same music on our iPhones, but we don't want to share the same contacts and applications. How can I set this up so we still share music, but everything else is separate on our iPhones?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
iTunes and iCloud are different accounts. You can both use the same ID for the store login and share your music etc., and use different ID's to log in to iCloud, thereby keeping your calendars etc separate.
