ITUNES ON PC, BUT NOW I HAVE A MAC..HOW DO I COPY OVER?

Atthe mo I have a pc. I have added all my cd colection to itunes and loads of my favourite movies. These are all synced up to my ipod classic.
Some of the albums i added didnt have artwork, so i had to hunt for the front covers myself.
anyway, i am about to ditch the PC and get a mac mini. I have an external hardrive, but how do i flawlessly transfer over all my itunes libary? i must keep all artwork/albums/movies etc. It was nightmare renaming half the stuff in itunes before. Will i loose all my hard work because im getting a mac?
Please help!
Cheers

Don't forget by the way if you have purchased any tracks from the iTunes Music Store to deauthorise your old PC if you are disposing of it so you don't use up your 5 allowances: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation

HT1473 When importing CDs into i-tunes should the artwork be there automatically. If not how do I get artwork to show in i-tunes and on my ipod. I had artwork with a PC but now I have a mac artwork does not appear.

I don't use iTunes's "fetch artwork", so I'm not 100% sure, but unless you are signed in to your iTunes account, artwork is not automatic. Even then, iTunes doesn't always find it.
You can copy-and-paste artwork from the inernet, either Amazon or Google. I use 300x300 pixel images.
For the future, if you have iTunes questions, you might be better off posting them in the iTunes for Mac forum, this is iTunes for Windows. In this situation, it doesn't make any difference, but next time maybe it will.

I have an external hard driver that I used to use with my old pc, but now I have a mac and I can see all of the files on it and open them, but I can't add things to it. How do I fix this?

I use my external hard drive to store all of my music, but now I can't save anything on it with my new Mac. Is there a way that I can reformat it or something without losing everything I already have on there?

I suggest to copy all your files in your external drive to your Macbook and reformat that external drive to Mac OS Extended Journaled or exFat.
Once you've done that - then copy all the files back to your external drive.
Do not format your external drive if you haven't copied whats in your external drive. You'll lose everything.

I purchased dreamweaver download for windows but now I have a mac, will I need to purchase it again?

Hello, I purchased and downloaded Dreamweaver CS6 for windows, but have now upgraded to a MAC, will I need to purchase the software again ?

I purchased Photoshop cs6 and lightroom for windows but now I have a Mac

Does anyone have a 1 -800 number for Adobe? I purchased the teacher/student edition of Adobe photoshop cs6 extended and adobe Lightroom 4 but I didn't really even get to learn how to use them because my computer was old and crashed. Since then I purchased a Mac and I was wondering if I could get a copy of these without purchasing them again. They were very expensive. If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

I had PS Cs6 and signed up for PScc but now i have Cs6 extended, how can i fix this?

My computer is running windows 7 when the download stopped i have only got Cs6 extended,

The creative cloud has three version of Photoshop all are Extended CS6 version 13.1.2, CC version 14.1.2 and CC 2014 version 15.2.2.
CS6 perpetual Windows is CS6 version 13.0.1.3 and either Standard features or Standard features and extended features are enabled.
The perpetual an subscription versions are different the subscription version has a scripting bug fix not the perpetual version and the perpetual version has some plug-in support that has been removed in the subscription version. I kept the Perpetual version installed on one machine and installed the subscription version on my other machine.
CS6 perpetual and CS6 Subscription versions can not co exists on a single machine.
If you now have CS6 13.1.3 I think the only way back to CS6 version 13.0.1.3 may be to use Adobe cleanse to wipeout all Adobe applications then clean out any Adobe rat dropping that may still be on you system in your windows registry and in your user id application data like Photoshop preferences. once you do the you may be able to install your old perpetual version of CS6. The you may be able to download the direct installer for Photoshop CC 2014 and install that and activate it with a sign in you Adobe User ID that has the cloud subscription

If you "had to" create a new user id, then you need to move your data so that that new user can access it.

If you used iTunes to get the photos on the phone, then use the same iTunes and uncheck the music you don't want and do another sync.

Is it the same user/iTunes account or...?
Syncing to a new computer should give you the opportunity to replace the exisiting contents with the new.

If no change after restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, there is a hardware problem.

You can only buy content from your own country's store - to be able to buy from another country's store you need a valid billing address in that country and be in that country when buying from it
