My iphone4 is sync with an old computer and i want to sync with a new one
can anyone help me sync my phone to my new computer without losing everything?
I have been using my new mac for some time now. It already has a itunes that has a few gig of music. I can't access the computer i originally sync'd my phone with becasue it is my ex's. Last time i do that lol. I just want a way to save the music on my phone now then I will sync and erase it all then just add it back. can i get the music off my phone some how? I dont care about the apps i can get them again. I already saved all my pics to my comp and my contacts should be fine as far as i understand. Thanks for you help.

I want to upgrade my computer and did a Windows Easy Transfer to my new one. My Firefox bookmarks did not show up on my new computer so I used Firefox Sync-which worked fine. Now that I have the bookmarks on the new computer, can I erase the old computer and still have the bookmarks on the new one.
First, disconnect your old computer from Firefox Sync so you don't accidentally delete the data from sync, but then yes you should be good to go.

My Ipod is syncd to my old computer and I want to sync it to my new computer without losing the content on my Ipod
Transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
Transfer other music by using on of the thirdt party programs dicsussed here:
new PC: Apple Support Communities
Theaftr transfering the stuff, restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and then sync.
If you can move the iPod backup file to the new computer you can restore from backup.
The backup file is located here:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\ -
I use to have a iTunes account with my old computer, and I have lost all my iTunes music, some purchased, some downloaded from another source. Now I'm using a brand new computer (Windows) and I have opened a NEW iTunes account, but I now I need to figure out if it is possible to recoup my music content that I originally had. I had, I believe around close to 300 songs on my account ;(......Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Again, Ronald

Now remove all your info and update the old AppleiD/iTunes account and use only that account.
You cannot transfer items between iTunes accounts.
You can redownload all the content. -
My old computer broke, so i got a mac. However, my iphone was already synced to the old computer, so i cannot put music anymore. This is because it is synced to my old computer. How do I sync it to work on my mac?

I have over 1000 songs on an old computer and I want to copy them to a new one - I have a hard drive but it seems to only copy my purchased songs - any ideas?
Hi Le Etta,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
Take a look at the article below, it provides details and instructions for multiple ways of moving the music from an old computer to a new one.
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
Method
Considerations
Home Sharing
The easiest option, as long as your new computer is already connected to the Internet.
External drive
Requires additional hardware but backs up your iTunes library.
Transferring purchases
Fastest, but only moves the content you purchased from the iTunes Store. Also requires an iPhone, iPad, or iPod with the content on it.
Windows Migration Assistant
Works best for migrating from an old PC to a new Mac, and transfers more than iTunes.

I was syncing my ipod touch on a friend's computer and now want to sync to my new mac book, will I lose all my stuff?
Not if you do the following:
- Transfer iTunes purchased to the new computer:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using one of the third-party programs discussed here:
new PC: Apple Support Communities
- Move a copy of the iPod backup file from the old to new computer. That file is located here:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
- After the stuff is moved/transfered, restore the iPod from the backup you just moved to the new computer and sync as necessary. -

You cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
NOTE: Previous purchases from the iTunes Store can be re-downloaded at no cost from the iTunes Store Purchased screen. -
i have all my music on my old computer but the port broke on the old computer and i want to put my music on my new computer but the usb port is broken on the old computer

I have my entire music library (purchased and burnt CD's) on my iPod Touch from one computer and I wanted to sync it all to my new computer. I was hoping it would all transfer via sync when I plugged it in but it doesn't seem to work. Please help?!
Ok, I had a glitch, forced to restart, and lost my train of thought.
Reinstalling iTunes should fix the major issue that might have gone wrong, perhaps your explaination points will disappear and everything will be peachy again.
But if they don't, you can open the XML file in iTunes Folder using a Text edit program to see what the common pathname is to the iTunes Music folder or where your content is located.
If you moved the itunes folder, it needs to go back.
I can't download iTunes to my Vista virtual machine to test it out right now because iTunes is down, so I can't verify the pathname, perhaps your issue and the iTunes being down are related somehow?
You don't want to import all your music again, but it's a option, but you lose all your playlists, that's what I'm trying to recover.
If oyu don't have a whole lot of playlists, then simply select all the explaimation point music and delete, select File from the menu and import your itunes folder again. -
I purchased Lightroom 5 and Elements 12 and installed them on a computer. I now have a new computer, and wish to install them on the new one. When I tried to do so, my only option seemed to be Adobe Cloud. When I was asked for my LR serial number, it was not accepted. Please help me install these two products; I prefer stand-alone, rather than a monthly fee. Thank you

I bought a new computer and want to use the new computer to sync data with my iPod touch. I understand that you can only sync a device with one computer at a time. This if fine because I don't care to sync my iPod with the old computer anymore. How do I set up my new computer to be the computer that syncs with my iPod touch from now on, without losing any data?
You don't.
When you sync to a different computer it erases the content from the ipod and replaces it with the data from the new computer.
Just copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one, then sync -
