I am interested in purchasing a new PC and wanted to transfer all of the music on my Itunes onto my new computer's Itunes the easiest was possible. Any suggestions?

I am interested in purchasing a new PC and wanted to transfer all of the music on my Itunes onto my new computer's Itunes the easiest was possible. Any suggestions?

These are two possible approaches that should work to move the existing library to the new laptop.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase are reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your library or a backup of it then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

Everytime I try to enter something into the search box a further box appears to tell me this is a json file and what program should I use to open it. How can I

I am using Linux mint 12 with firefox.
Everytime I try to type something in the search box a further box appears to tell me this is a JSON file and what program should I use to open it.
This has only happened since reinstalling my system a couple of weeks ago.
I am not really interested in what a json file is I simply want to get rid of this pop up box.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I want to delete ALL of the Contacts, and start fresh.

I want to delete ALL of the Contacts transfered from my iMac shortly after setting up my new iPad 4th Gen, so I can start a new Contact list that is better scaled down for my Face Time and eMail usage (without the other 900 business contacts). I cannot find a way to highlight the entire list and then do a single Delete. SInce I don't have Lion or higher on my iMac, I cannot do an iCloud sync to do the job. Any suggestions?

Yes there is. Those songs are not actually on your iPad. They are in iCloud ready for download if you choose to do so. If you want to remove them go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show All>Music>Off. You can also do this in Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off.

My iPod is synced to my old laptop, and I want to move all of the data from my iPod to my new computer. HELP!

I just got a New Home Computer, and all of my iPod data is stuck to my crappy old laptop. How can I transfer all of my data, including non-purchased items to my new computer?

Try here:
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
Transferring your iTunes Library | iLounge Article
Also make sure you copy your iPod backup to the new computer. You can find its location here:
iPhone and iPod touch: About backups
Yu really want to move/copy your entire iTunes folder (and subfolders), not just the music.

I have a new computer and I want to make it my home device for I tunes. I have home sharing, and all of the music and files are on the new computer. Now what do I do to make the new computer the home computer for Itunes?

I have a new computer and I want to make it my home device for I tunes. I have home sharing, and all of the music and files are on the new computer. Now what do I do to make the new computer the home computer for Itunes?

The computer (windows platform) where I initially began using Itunes has four other computers/devices that are shared with it. All four of the other computers show up in my account, and can be managed. Or I can remove them. But on the new computer that I want to be my base computer (home if you will). The computer I want it to replace, when ITunes is open, has a tool bar, with various functions. All of the other devices are linked to that computer in ITunes, under Home SHaring. The new computer, shows the downloads via Home Sharing, but it does not show/have any tool bar.
I want to activate the new computer to be the computer via ITunes where all of the devices are linked to it as the base for ITunes. And, I don't know how to make that happen.
I hope that makes sense.

To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
Delete the "songs" that do not play in your iTunes library and reimport them.

I just got my ipod from my dad and he has all of his songs on there from his mac, and so now he gave the ipod to me and i want to put all of the songs on MY computer onto my new ipod and take all of the songs of that my dad originally had.

When you connect the iPod to your computer and go to the Music tab to select which music you want to sync, iTunes will pop up a dialogue box that if you sync your music it will replace the music that is already on the iPod.
Since that sounds like what you want to do, just click ok and then sync.

HT1535 I want to delete all of the music on my iPhone and reload from a new iTunes library on a new computer

I acquired a new PC . I had my iPone synched to the iTunes library on the old PC. I now want to delete all of the music off of my iPhone and reload it with the new iTunes library that I am creating on the new PC.
I tried seveal times using different synch options ... all unsuccessful.

Hey finterra,
Thanks for the question. With iOS 7 you can now delete your entire music library from your device. Simply navigate to Settings > General > Usage > Music then tap Edit, tap the minus symbol, then tap Delete.

Afterwards you can setup syncing with your new computer:

I want to transfer my library and all of the settings and playlists to my new computer

I am interested in moving my entire library from one PC to another. I want to keep all of my playlists and settings (ratings) so I don't have to do them again. I have an external drive and have followed all of the steps from itunes four seperate times. I can move the library, but none of the settings or playlist transfer.

This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes for Windows forums.
Regards.

My ipod was disabled and says connect to itunes,but all of the videos and question say it will delete everying on my ipod. iCloud backup hasent been turned on either. I don't want anythin to be deleted HELP?

My ipod touch 4g was disabled yeterday, and i tried it so many times it say to connect to iTunes. I don't want to because all of the discussions I've read say it will delete all of my data. I have lots and lots of pictures and apps I don't want too lose. Some of them are very valuableto me. I didn't get the chance to turn iCloud back up on, and I really want to. is there any way i can restore my ipod without erasing all of my data. PLEASE HELP, I REALLY NEED IT! By the way my Sleep/Wake button and my volume buttons don't work, so I use assistive touch, my home button works though.

You cannot enable without restoring it and losing everything you have failed to save to your computer.
This is one of the many reason it is very important tostore everything on your computer/cloud service. Nothing should only be on the ipod.

How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once. These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says From My Mac. I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.

How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once? These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says, "From My Mac."
Someone said create a new empty folder on the computer and sync to that -- didn't work .
Another person said, "Reset information in settings to restore to the default." That would erase ALL of the conetent I have on the phone and I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.
There has to be a better way than gong through and deleting one-by-one.

Go into Settings...Mail, Calendar and Contacts and siwtch off the Contacts section from the account in question.
The phone should ask you if you want to keep or erase the contacts stored on you phone.
However, if they aren't synched to anything and only exist on your iPhone, you'll have to delete them all one by one

This user tip should be helpful too. It refers to the iPhone, but it's equally valid for iPods as well…

There is a world of information in these forums if you use the search function near the top right of this page. Just type in NAS for example and you get many threads on the subject (marked with a green checkmark if it solved the question) another example would be Airport Exterme and sound system. Once you formulate your ideas better then specific questions can be addressed one at a time. You may find that a less expensive choice for a server might be a mac mini. Good luck with your project, ask more specific questions and update you systems profile.
