My laptop was stolen and I want to move all my songs from my iPad to iTunes....how?

iTunes wants to sync an empty library to my iPod.  I want to do the reverse so I can populate iTunes.  This seems so easy but I can't figure it out.

  • HT1329 My laptop was stolen and I am trying to transfer the music from my iPad

    I want to transfer the music from my iPad, most of which is not purchased from iTunes, to the new computer (PC) but getting a message stating that the device is syched to another computer.  Anyway to make my new computer the home computer and transfer the non-iTunes music without erasing the content of the iPad?

    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
    Sync transfer is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer (except purchased content as mentioned above).  For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

    Do not regard your i-device as a reliable unique storage for your media. It is not a backup device and everything is structured around you maintaining a backup of your media on a computer backup.

  • My ipod was stolen and I wanted to know if I could erase its music using itunes without it being connected directly to the computer obviously since I don't have it?

    You can lock or erase your device via Find My Phone only if it was already configured for your device ahead of time.
    What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

  • Hi, my laptop was stolen and i am wanting to transfer my i tunes from my i phone to the new laptop. does ayone know how to please?!

    Hi, my laptop was stolen and I am trying to transfer i tunes from my i phone 4 to my laptop. Does anyone know how to do it please?!

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is oen way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases.  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    Was your backup copy of your computer stolen as well?  If not, then use it to put everything back

    You don't. Change all your passwords, tell you provider, tell the police, tell your insurance company.

    The serial number is embedded in the iTunes on the computer to which you originally sync'd the iPhone.

  • My laptop was stolen and I need to be able to connect my iPhone4 to the new laptop and transfer content (photos, mp3's, apps etc.) to the new laptop.  I'm afraid to try a sync in case it deletes all the content off the iPhone.  Any suggestions?

    You should be importing all pics taken with the iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.

  • If my iPhone was stolen and i want to reactive an old phone using that same number for the time being while i waited to see if I could get my iPhone back, would the iPhone still work while i was using a re-activated old phone of mine?

    If my iPhone was stolen and i want to reactive an old phone using that same number for the time being while i waited to see if I could get my iPhone back, would the iPhone still work while i was using a re-activated old phone of mine?

    If a new SIM is activated on the same account for the same number, any existing SIMs for that number are deactivated.
    Why exactly would you care if the SIM in the missing device still works or not?

  • HT1420 My Laptop was stolen and I am unable to deauthorize it. How can I deauthorize computers I no longer have access to?

    How can I authorize my new laptop when my old laptop was stolen and I am unable to deauthorize it? There are three other computers apparently on my account that I also am no aware of , nor do I have access to. I am unable to add any new computers to my account.

    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. Otherwise you can "deauthorize all" from your iTunes account.
    Open iTunes on a computer
    From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
    Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
    Under "Computer Authorizations" select "Deauthorize All".
    Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "deauthorize all" your authorized computers, authorize each one as required.

    my house had a break-in, laptop was stolen and the thief is connected now to my skype!
    how can i get the IP address, isn't there some option like in gmail i can see who besides me is connected to the account right now?

    I think you can consider reporting this matter to your local police.  Then they can contact Skype to request for possible information or assistance.  Skype will only provide sensitive information such us user's IP address to the proper law enforcement bodies.

  • 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.
