My computer broke downn, and I would like to copy the libary from the old to the new. It that possible??
My old computer is dead. My iTunes library is stores there. Are there any solution to transfer it to a new computer?
Depends how it died. It may be possible to extract the hard drive from the old computer, mount it in an external drive bay, then copy the iTunes folder across. If you have an iPod or iOS device see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device, if not see Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.

i just purchased a new 21.5 iMac and would like to copy my iPhoto from my old iMac's time capsule can anyone help me ?
You might consider restoring to factory specs, as detailed in the booklet that shipped witht the machine, using the Setup Assistant on first boot, and then reinstalling those new programs. i've not moved pictures, so you could always give that a shot.

I would like to download my music from my iPod touch to iTunes library, is that possible? Our old computer fried and we were unable to salvage any information. All of the music that I downloaded from CD's is not in iTunes on our new computer. Will I have to reload all CD's?
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
Have you failed to do this?
If so, then you will need to rip the dvds again -

My old mac screen broke down and I would like to transfer my photos and documents to my new mac. Is it possible to transfer it with the cable without fixing my old mac screen? Please help!
Sure! If the two Macs have Thunderbolt ports, attach a Thunderbolt cable between them. If they have FireWire, or if one has FireWire and one Thunderbolt, connect a FireWire cable (with a TB adaptor if necessary). Reboot the old Mac holding down the T key. Make sure it's connected to power. You'll now see its system drive appear on the desktop of the other Mac and you can use Migration Assistant to automatically transfer files, or drag them over manually.

iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

Hi,
I would like to copy my photos (from iphoto) and movies (from i movie) from my Mac book air to my imac in which I also have iphoto and imovie with photos and movies.
My goal is to have a unique source of photos and movies in my imac.
Thanks !
NicolasAs to iPhoto
Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.
For iMovie support please post in the iMovie forum

my new Macbook Pro does not have idvd and my old one has, so would like to transfer my idvd from my old mac to my new one. Can i do that? and how? thanks.
Right, I finally managed to get it sorted out.
iCloud only accept version 3.0 vcards, and the one I was using were version 2.1 so that's why it wasn't picking it up. So the easy way to get that sorted out is, use a gmail account.
I know you don't wanna do it because you think it's too much hassle and stuff, but trust me it only takes 5 minutes and that's it.
1. Create a Gmail Account.
2. Export your Old VCard files to the Gmail Account.
3. Now Import them from Gmail to your PC again.
And, that's it, that's just makes the new imported version in 1 file contains your all contacts in version 3.0. Now you can just upload that on icloud and then sync it with your iphone.
That's what I did and it worked, and I am sure if you wanna replace this file in the Contacts folder under your User Account in Windows and then try to sync Contacts in Tunes, it should work, but as I said, I did it with iCloud and it worked for me. So aye, that's pretty much it. Phewwww..
Been searching for it for the whole day and it took 5 minutes in the end, badass...
Anyway, don't lose hope and always Google for everything! -

I would like to access my music from my account on another devise because my other one crashed. I do not have iCloud and I need this music on my new devise.
Anything you purchased from the iTunes Store can be downloaded again, as often as necessary, as long as it still exists in the iTunes Store.

I would like to copy my Contacts from Windows to my iPhone 5? How can I do it?
Hi there
I have recently bought an iphone 5 and I would like to update my Contacts to the iphone 5 from my Windows PC. There in the Contacts folder under my user account in VCARD format, I tried doing it with iTunes, while changing it in the Info tab to 'Windows Contact' but it comes up with 'Syncing Contacts' in the iTunes but I can't see any contacts in my phone at all? I also tried to upload those Contacts to iCloud but then I get an error which is " Could not be imported because there was a problem reading the VCard ".
I really don't know why this is, but as you can understand I desperately need to copy my contacts.
Would anyone be able to suggest me where I am getting wrong please?
And also, I have just updated my phone to iOS 6.1.4. (Shouldn't really matter but just in-case).
