Is there a way to import all of my songs from my iPhone to iTunes?

i just got my first Mac.  All of the files from my PC were deleted, so I'm wondering if there's a way to load all of the songs, pictures, etc on my iPhone to my Mac?  I'm worried that if I connect my phone, it may sync and erase everything I have saved.

You can Prevent automatic syncing one time, without changing settings:  Open iTunes. Then, as you connect iPhone to your computer, press and hold Command and Option keys (on a Mac) until you see iPhone appear in the iTunes sidebar.
To load all the stuff from your phone, you'll need to use a 3rd-party uitility. Here are 2 that will work:

  • Is there a way to transfer all of the songs from an iPhone (4), to iMac using iCloud?

    I honestly don't know what happened one day all of my music just vanished off of the system.
    But I still have all of my songs, books, movies etc on my iPhone.
    I know you can transfer things from your Macbook, imac etc from iTunes to your iPhone, but is there a way to do it the other way around?,
    PLEASE HELP! It will be much appreicated, my iTunes library started 6 years ago, that's a lot of music lost!

    Music purchased from iTunes can be transferred from your phone using iTunes, however other music cannot.  To do this requires 3rd party software such as PhoneView (mac) or Touch Copy (pc or mac).

  • Is there a way to import all mail and contacts from iCloud (.Me) to Gmail?

    I know Gmail does have a wizard, but I would be interested to find out if anyone has done this and where all the mail goes (i.e. whether Google can identify mailboxes from .Me and label them - that would be amazing!)

    Sync your old address book with the one on the iPod.  You may have to import them into an intermediate address book like Google contacts since that can be done by importing a file you should be able to export for your address book.  Without know your old address book that is all I can say.

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, try this a few times if necessary. If still problem, you may have to just Restore your iPhone to get it working. In the future sync your iPhone with iTunes routinely and when it contains important data, iCloud when set correctly will do this for you continuously.

  • My laptop recently crashed and is unsalvagable with my itunes library on it.  My ipod touch has all of my music still on it.  Is there a way that I can put the songs on my ipod onto itunes on my new computer??

    Is there a way that I can put the songs on my ipod onto itunes on my new computer without loosing them or having to buy them all over again?

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your iPod for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • Is there a way to import several tracks at once from my Boss BR8 so that they show up as separate tracks in GarageBand?

    Is there a way to import several tracks at once from my Boss BR8 so that they show up as separate tracks in GarageBand?

    I had to google your device - looks like it's a vintage multi-track recorder that records to Zip disks. So I guess there's no digital USB or Firewire multichannel output and no way to transfer your tracks digitally - or is there? If not, your only option is to record the device's audio track by track into GB.

    Guess you have your answer.  Maybe next time you'll read the User Guide and use the phone as recommended so this doesn't happen again.

  • Is There A Way To See All Apps And Songs You Purchase?

    I wanted to buy a song from iTunes with my gift card credit. When I scrolled to see my credit i didnt think it was right .So after adding up all the things I know I purchased the amount left over wasn't the same as the credit it was showing. So is there a way to see all of your purchases from the app store and iTunes store at one time?

    If you cannot powerup the phone, there would be no way to recover the photos from the device. Have you tried to just connect it to the computer? If the photos are that important, have you considered possibly a 3rd party repair to just fix the screen so you can access the device, or was there more broken than the screen?

  • I have imported all photos and videos from my iPhone 5S into Aperture ver.3.4.5 and now cannot find them. I thought I could open a panel showing all imports and merely list them chronologically, but I don't see how to do this.

    I have imported all photos and videos from my iPhone 5S into Aperture ver.3.4.5 and now cannot find them. I thought I could open a panel showing all imports and merely list them chronologically, but I don't see how to do this.  There are over 1800 photos and about 100 videos, any help to locate where they've gone would be appreciated.

    Try to search with a Smart Album for photos and videos taken with an iPhone:
         File > New > Smart Album:
    Add an EXIF rule fro the "Add Rule" drop down menu: EXIF
    and set it to "Camera Model includes iPhone".
    Set the scope of the search to "Library"
    If there are any iPhone images or videos in your library at all, this search should find them.  Then ctrl-click any of the items and select "Show in Project" from the contextual menu.
    Generally, Aperture should be showing your last import in the "Last Import" smart album in the "recent" section". And the "projects" view can be sorted by date, so you should see your recent imports.
    You may want to check all search fields, if searches are active.

  • Is there a way to stream movies or mirror them from my iphone onto my ipad screen? My iPad memory is too small to download the movies from iTunes but I have them downloaded on my iphone.

    My ipad is only 16gb and just about full but my iphone is 64gb and has plenty of space. I have bought movies on iTunes and have been watching them on my iphone, but this seems a bit silly as I have an ipad with a larger screen. Is there a way to mirror or stream the movies from my iphone to my ipad?

    Thx - the videos are on my Ipad - that is the problem - they are taking up all the storage and there is no room for anything else. Is there any place I can store them so that I can access them from time to time, but not have they use up all the space on the IPad? Sounds like the cloud is out...

  • HT204406 Is there a way to down load specific, individual songs on my iphone 5 or ipad 2, through iTunes Match, rather than having to download the entire album in the Cloud?

    Is there a way to down load specific, individual songs on my iphone 5 or ipad 2, through iTunes Match, rather than having to download the entire album in the Cloud?

    Begin by tapping on the Settings app.
    Scroll to the Store menu and tap that.
    This is where you can manage your Automatic Download settings. You can control Music, Apps, and Books (if you have the iBooks app installed) here. Slide to On any of the kinds of files you want iCloud to automatically download to your device.

    is there a way to download a text/imessage conversation from your iphone to your computer to print as a document?

    Yes. I do it regularly to archive my messages.
    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

    I use PhoneView and save my texts as a nicely formatted PDF. But, there are other options.
