  • My laptop was stolen and all my music is on my iPod Classic. How can I transfer it to my new computer and keep the playlists and such?

    Hey Everyone,
    My apartment was broken into and my laptop was stolen which had my entire iTunes library.  I have it all on my iPod Classic now which was with me at the time.
    What do you suggest as the best tool to transfer the music FROM my iPod to to my new computer?  I know there are some programs out there, what have you had success with?
    My most important question is, is there a way to retain my library and especially playlists as it is (instead of copying over a massive bunch of songs)?  Most of my music is from music blogs, mixtapes and underground artists so most of it cannot be found in the iTunes store.
    Thanks for any help guys!
    Vlad.

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your device for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

    Syncing an iDevice to a computer does not remove content from the computer.
    Syncing an iDevice to a computer that it does not normally sync with will remove the content from that device.
    If the media was acquired with a different Apple ID it is in no way linked to your Apple ID.

  • I had an iPod touch, but it was stolen or lost. Now that I have a new one with a new Apple ID, is there someway I can access and download all my old photos and data from my old Apple ID to my new device? I still remember my old Apple ID and password.

    Restopre from backup
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    Also,
    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

    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, how do I get my purchases back?

    Recently, my laptop was stolen and I was just wondering if it would be possible to get all my past iTunes purchases back? I had a lot of movies and music that were on that computer. Unfortunately, I only had some of the purchases on my iPod. Can anyone help me? I really want to be able to retrieve my past purchases. Thanks!

    Was your backup copy of your computer stolen as well?
    If not, then use your backup copy to put everything back.
    In the U.S. only you can use icloud to get music back. Open itunes store, click Purchased under Quick Links.

  • My laptop was stolen, can firefox tract

    my laptop was stolen, can firefox tract

    Sorry, about your loss. Had that happen 3 years ago.
    No, Firefox has no tracking features to help you. There is security software which needed to be installed before it was lost which could give the IP Address of where that laptop is being used. Are you sure your laptop didn't have that type of software installed?

  • My laptop was stolen how can I re-sync my iphone to the new laptop without losing all of my data?

    Hi to all,
    I hope someone can help me.  I know this question has been asked in various formats but I can't seem to find exactly what I am looking for, so please forgive me if this type of question is asked again.
    My laptop was stolen a few months ago and I have finally been able to replace it.  The common issue of course is that I can only sync it to one iTunes library at a time, which was on my laptop that some thief is currently enjoying the use of.
    I don't have a lot of money so all of my backups were on the stolen laptop as I don't have an external hard drive.  I understand you can authorize iTunes or the iPhone to go on upto 5 computers at a time?
    As soon as I plugged in my phone (on the new laptop) I created a backup of everything on there using iTunes.  I guess my question is, if I plug in my iphone and ask it to restore from back up, will it wipe the phone and replace it with the first back up on the new laptop or will it still delete everything altogether as the original content is not on the new laptop?
    As much as it would be a pain, the music content is the least of my concern.  It's more a case of making sure I keep my contacts, photos and purchases from the app store.  I have read somewhere that you can transfer your purchases but I'm not sure how to do this.
    I really hope someone can help and apologies for the repeat topic!
    Thanks in advance to any who take the time to read and reply, I will appreciate any input/insight you may be able to provide.

    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

  • HT1727 My laptop was stolen and now I can't get my library back.

    My laptop was stolen six months ago, and I just reinstalled iTunes on a new PC.  I tried to login with my original username and password and got an error message, so I had to change my username and password.  Now when I login, my libraries are empty.  How can I get them back?  Thanks.

    Of course they are empty.  Logging into iTunes has NEVER caused content to magically appear.
    Use the backup of your computer to put everything back.
    If your backup was also stolen, or for some foolish reason you never created a backup, it is possible to download past iTunes purchases.
