Is possible to transfer ratings from a practically identical itunes library

Hi
I have recently transferred my library from my PC to a new mac. I tried to do this using back discs I had created in itunes but they appear to have corrupted.
So I just copied everything across by a portable hard drive but the thought of rating 7000 songs is a bit daunting. Is there anyway I can use one of the library.itl or xml files on my hp to transfer this info?
Long shot I guess!

  • How do I transfer ratings from my iPod to iTunes?

    Hi, I've read this same question about a billion times on multiple sites, and the two most common answers are
    1) you can't, use some 3rd party software, duplicate your whole libary, start over, etc
    2) turn on auto sync.
    Here's my confusion: I have no problem turning on autosync, as my library and ipod have the same songs, but I have been on "manually manage" for a long time and I don't want to lose the thousands of ratings I have done since I stopped using autosync. I'm cool with going back to autosync as long as my ratings stay, but I am not confident that they will.
    Thanks to anyone who can confidently let me know if clicking autosync will or will not delete the ratings from my ipod.

    If this is a different computer from the one you originally set the iPod with then yes, changing to Autosync will erase all content from the device and replace it with what it is in your iTunes library. The erasing of content includes your ratings.
    Your only option is third party software at this point as you are already aware.

  • Is it possible to transfer files from my ipod to itunes?

    I'm trying to upload some new songs I got on my ipod from another computer onto my computer but it doesn't let me do it. Is there any way to do that or does it have to do with some legal thing?

    I don't know if this is supposed to be "legit" in this forum, but if you want to transfer your songs back to your iTunes or back them up on an external drive or cd there is an easy way. I actually used this method to transfer all the songs from my main iPod to my secondary iPod.
    1) With your iPod plugged into your computer, click on the iPod drive (usually E:).
    2) Make sure you have "View hidden folders" enabled in your computers settings.
    3) You should see a folder called "ipod_control." Go into that folder and then into the folder called "music."
    4) In the "music" folder will be a bunch of folders named F00 thru whatever. All your music is in these folders, but just named all crazy. If you drag the whole "music" folder into your iTunes library, iTunes should recognize them and sort them by artist, album, etc.

  • Is it possible to transfer content from my ipod to itunes?

    Some time ago I got a new computet and I have only bought a couple of songs, which are now in my itunes library, but I have a lot of music on my ipod that I want to transfer to my itunes onmy new computer. How?? If I sync now I reckon all my music on my ipod will disappear...

    You will need to download a 3rd party application to do this. Apple does not support this directly. So try something like VersionTracker.com to search for iPod applications where you will find many choices for going from iPod to computer.

  • What is the easiest way to transfer music from my ex's itunes library to mine? We both have Macbooks and we do have home sharing.

    Over the years my ex's and I bought tons of music off itunes, but always bought it on her Macbook. Now that we aren't together I want to copy all of the music from her itunes library and import it into mine. Is this possible, and what is the easiest way?
    Many Thanks

    the simplest way, assuming all your media files are in the default location, would be to connect the two Macs with a firewire cable, boot the source Mac in Target Disk Mode, and copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music folder) from <MacintoshHD>/users/yourname/music on the source to <MacintoshHD>/users/yourname/music on the target (overwriting the iTunes folder in place there).
    that would ensure everything (including playcounts, ratings, original "date added", which home sharing doesn't copy over) will be transferred. it would also ensure that any mobile devices (iPhone, etc.) will simply keep on syncing without problems.
    you can also use an external HD (or your LAN) but make sure to copy the entire iTunes folder.

  • How do I transfer music from my IPhone to itunes library?

    I recently bought a macbook pro. how do i copy the music off my phone and onto my empty itunes library?

    It would be better to simply copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from your old computer to /Music/ on your new computer (along wiht copying all your other user data from old to new computer).
