I would like to transfer the movies purchased in iTunes to my Seagate wireless plus external drive.
Hello,
I had purchased movies from Itunes on my iPAD 2 and when I ran out of space I simply deleted them. When I open my itunes on my Macbook Pro, I find these movies under "purchases" with a cloud icon. This means I can re download them. But what I essentially want to do is download these movies or transfer my itunes movies library on my newly acquired Seagate wireless plus, which I understand is compatible with Itunes. What I would like to know is, will I need to redownload the movies on the macbook pro first before transfering my itunes library to the SWP EHD or is there an alternative?
Is it your intention to move the whole library to the external (easy) or just the movies (not so easy but possible)?
Alternatively, make two libraries, one for music the other for movies. I don't really see the need to have them all in one library since I know I rarely want to play a song, have it jump to a movie, then another song without interruption.
Let us know your druthers.

I share my iTunes with my family's iPod's. We all buy music seperately on our own iPod and would like to transfer the music to our iTunes library, how would we do this?
Oh jeez, that was simple. Thanks!

I would like to transfer the music that is already on my iPod touch to a new computer. At present, my iPod touch is not recognised on the new computer. How do I resolve that so I can literally connect it to my new computer and transfer all my music? Any help is much appreciated.

It doesn't quite work that way. Transfer your music from the old computer to the new one. Then, sync the iPod.

My account was deleted for security issues. I made a new account, but I can't syncronise my apps with this new account. I bought a new Iphone and would like to transfer the apps ans music on this new one. Can somebody help me?
Why would you make a new account? This will likely cause many problems. Just get you old account enabled.
Apple ID: "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" alert appears

Everything you purchased with the old account will always be tied to that account. You will have to authorize the computer for that account and you will have to update the apps from that account. -
I made a photo book in iPhoto and would like to transfer the book to my iPhoto on other macs and iPad. How is this done and can it be synced between devices like photo stream?
You can create a Quicktime movie slideshow of the book's pages and share that. Here's how to get your book into an iPhoto slideshow and then export as a Quicktime video:
1 - While viewing the book type Command+P to start the print process.
2 - click on the PDF button and select "Save PDF to iPhoto".
Note: If you don't have any of those options go to Toad's Cellar and download these two files:
Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
Unzip the files and place in the HD/Library/PDF Services folder and reboot.
3 - select either of the files above (300 dip is used for photos to be included in a book that will be ordered).
4 - in the window that comes up enter an album name or select an existing album and hit the Continue button.
That will create a 200 or 300 dpi jpeg file of the item being printed and import it into iPhoto. Immediately select all of the photos in the new album and sequentially renumber them as "Page " using the Batch Change ➙ Title to Text with the option to add a sequential number to each title. This is to let you put the pages back in the correct order in the event they get sorted incorrectly.
Now you can proceed as follows: create the slideshow in iPhoto and export it out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large (480p with iPhoto 9),

I have an iPod nano 2nd generation and I want to download the songs I have on it to my new computer, as my old one crashed with all the songs on it. I also got a new iPod and would like to transfer the old songs onto it. How do I do this?
Ok so sorry for clogging the community!! I figured it out - you have to copy your videos into itunes manually. I did that, synched and all good!

Hello, I imported song from a CD onto my Macbook Pro and now I would like to transfer the songs onto my IPhone 5. I can't figure out how to do that, does anyone know how I would be able to do this?

How do you get songs into a Smart Playlist...? Also, when I select the music tab on top, there is no iphone button or anything that says sync to iPhone. That's where I get confused
When you set up a Smart Playlist, it automatically populates the list with songs. You don't have to do anything. Now, you may not have set it up properly, meaning your set up fails to recognize any songs.
If you just want to put music in a Playlist, just create one, give it a name. Then drag the music from the "music" list to the playlist. It copies the information there. And when you sync the Playlist to your iPhone, all the music goes.
It's truly easy, but there is a bit of a learning curve until you're good at it. Keep asking questions here, everyone will help you. But do read the Apple documents, they lay out pretty straightforward. -

Is is possible to convert the movies purchased on itunes to DVD?
Is is possible to convert the movies purchased on itunes to DVD? (In other words you would be burning the movie or tv shows to a blank DVD).
You can store just what you want on the external. Just set up folders for what you want. I have a music folder, movies and TV shows, and pictures folders. I also have mine partitioned for OSX and Windows. I have a few files I need if I am running on windows so I keep them on the windows side. I always keep a back up of my documents and a few other files it is a pain to download on the external.
You can also copy every folder and file on your machine to the external if it is big enough. This is a true copy not a back up file generated by a back up program. I like to do this if I get adventuresome and plan to do some major experimenting with my software. Saves having to reload everything if it crashes.

I have a itunes account but i would like to transfer my app purchases onto my google play?
I have a itunes account but i would like to transfer all my app purchases onto my google play or play store account how do i do that?..i already transfer my music too but i dont know how to transfer my app purchases at all please help!
That's a question for Google. If Google wants to give you credit for purchases that you have made from Apple, then that is between you and Google. As far as Apple would be concerned, you don't have anything to transfer.

Hello, thanks in advance for your help. I recorded a panel presentation on an ipod and would like to edit the audio recording to just one portion of the recording. I was able to import the audio into my itunes 11.1.3 music library but I have not been able to edit the length of the recording. I followed an online tutorial and was able to edit when the recording starts and stops on the recording but I haven't been able to edit out the parts of the recording that I dont want. Also when I try to export it to my Desktop or to Garageband (not sure if that helps or not) I am not able to export it. It is currently a .WAV file. I would like to edit the length of the recording and then export the file onto my desktop. I would like to email the presentations to my colleagues online so I could also use advice on how to make it a smaller file since it is current 945.6 MB.
iTunes isn't an editor. You need an app that's intended for editing audio files, like Adobe Audition (http://www.adobe.com/products/audition.html) or Audacity (free in the App Store).

Have bought a movie via apple TV and would like to have it available on my computer and ipod but it doesn't appear in the library on either. If I purchase a move from itunes via the computer it's available on both my ipod and apple TV. Can anyone help?
Simply download the content on the computer from the purchase history.

I just got a new Mac Book for college and I created my own apple id for it. My family already has a shared account and I was hoping to transfer the purchases from that account onto my new account. I tried the Homesharing feature, but we already have 5 devices that were authorized and we can't add another. What is the best way to make the transfer work?
You are most welcome
Each post should have the text "this helped me" or "this solved my question," or something similar. Just click on whichever one applies to that particular post!

I would like to transfer the balance from one Apple ID to another how can this be done??
I want to transfer the account ballance from my account to my son's. I unintentionally redeemed one of his gift cards to my account. how can this be done?
Sorry, but balances can't be transferred from one iTunes Store account to another. You'll either have to make his purchases through your account, or buy another prepaid card and redeem that in his account.
BTW, for future questions, 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 if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
Regards.
