Is there any way to move AAC Protected Files to my new Macbook?

I had an older PC laptop and at the time I bought over 300 songs in 2007 that were all coded as AAC Protected.  I've upgraded to a Macbook Pro and am trying to move those songs to my iTunes on that computer but am having issues.  It keeps telling me that  have to authorize the songs, which I have done, and I then get a message confirming that the macbook is an authorized computer.  However, I still can't play the other songs.  I'd like to rely on the Macbook for my iTunes but don't want to lose those songs.  Does anyone know of any way to move those songs over?  (I've tried home sharing and using an external hard drive.)

Is it possible that the tracks were purchased via a different iTunes Store account than the one you're using to authorize the MacBook? You can Get Info on a sampling of the tracks that will not play and confirm the account under which they were purchased. If you find that they were indeed purchased through another iTunes Store account, just authorize the MBP to that account as well.
Hope this helps.

  • My itunes account was disabled for some reason.  I changed password in iforgot and still didn't work.  I could log in but not make purchases from the store so I set up a new login/account .  Is there any way to move my music to the new account?

    My itunes account was disabled for some reason.  I changed password in iforgot and still didn't work.  I could log in and see my music but not make purchases from the store or even redeem an itunes gift card so I set up a new login/account with another email account of mine. On the new account I can redeem my gift card and download items onto my ipad2.  Is there any way to move my music to the new account?

    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • My laptop was stolen and i have a new one, is there any way to move all the picture folders to the new computer and not lose them?

    My laptop was stolen and i have a new one, is there any way to move all the picture folders to the new computer and not lose them? They stole my external harddrive too so unfortunately if i lose these, i have no way to get them back?

    What randers4 said. HOWEVER, if the photos were taken with a higher resolution camera than the iPhone what you recover will not be as high a resolution as the originals.

  • Is there any way to import the PST file to Thunderbird

    My boss used Outlook 2010 to store all his emails. Is there any way to import the PST file to Thunderbird so he can access them from a new computer?
    Thunderbird cannot be installed on the old computer and Outlook is not on the new computer. All information is saved in a PST file on our local backup.
    Alternatively, is there a way to convert to a file type that CAN be imported? This is a 5GB file. (I know, I KNOW, but I cannot convince him he doesn't need all of these emails.)

    Does he use an e-mail provider with sufficient mailbox space? In that case, you can move the e-mail back to the server and download it using Thunderbird.
    This only works when you configure the e-mail account with IMAP (not POP3).
    Hope this helps.

  • Is there any way to create a setup file Like Visual Basic

    Hi,
    I want to create a setup file of all developed foms and reports to install them to desireable location, is there any way to create a setup file in oracle, Like Vb.
    Raza

    I believe there is something from Oracle but it was frustratingly buggy when I used it a few years back and only worked via the Oracle installer.
    Personally, I'd recommend something like Innosetup, which is freeware and a Windows-style installer much like InstallShield etc. so it'll create an executable setup file probably OK if they've already got the Oracle Runtime components installed.

  • Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email? So that the user can print it out.

    Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email?
    I'm making the book for children and there is one chapter providing coloring pages. So I wish to attach pdf files that allow users to download it at the end of chapter so that  they can print it out. Been searching through discussion, I've found some advice about taking screen snapshot page-by-page > then send the pics from photo album to email. However, I'm wondering if there's a way that make the process easier.

    Warehouse that PDF on your own server, then link to it from your book.

  • I have written a binary file with a specific header format in LABVIEW 8.6 and tried to Read the same Data File, Using LABVIEW 7.1.Here i Found some difficulty.Is there any way to Read the Data File(of LABVIEW 8.6), Using LABVIEW 7.1?

    I have written a binary file with a specific header format in LABVIEW 8.6 and tried  to Read the same Data File, Using LABVIEW 7.1.Here i Found some difficulty.Is there any way to Read the Data File(of LABVIEW 8.6), Using LABVIEW 7.1?

    I can think of two possible stumbling blocks:
    What are your 8.6 options for "byte order" and "prepend array or string size"?
    Overall, many file IO functions have changed with LabVIEW 8.0, so there might not be an exact 1:1 code conversion. You might need to make some modifications. For example, in 7.1, you should use "write file", the "binary file VIs" are special purpose (I16 or SGL). What is your data type?

  • Is there any way we can save PDF files of 1.8v & 1.9v to 1.4v using plug-in?

    is there any way we can save PDF files of 1.8v & 1.9v to 1.4v using plug-in? (using PDDocSavePara )

    Something like this.
    Change VER variable to version number as you need. ex. VER = 7 -> PDF 1.7
    pdoc = AVDocGetPDDoc(avDoc);
    PDDocSaveParams saveParams;
    unsigned char buffer[sizeof(_t_PDDocSaveParams)];
    saveParams = (PDDocSaveParams)buffer;
    memset(saveParams, 0, sizeof(_t_PDDocSaveParams));
    saveParams->fileSys = ASGetDefaultFileSys();
    saveParams->major = 1;
    saveParams->minor = VER;  //change version here
    saveParams->saveFlags = PDSaveFull | PDSaveCollectGarbage | PDSaveForceIncremental | PDSaveKeepModDate;
    saveParams->size = sizeof (_t_PDDocSaveParams);
    saveParams->saveFlags2 = PDSaveUncompressed;

    Buy yourself a backup drive. Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer is structured around you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer. The exception is purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software unless you have an older model iPod. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):
