How can I get my songs on my ipod mini to my new computer Itunes?
How can I get my songs on my ipod mini to my new computer's Itunes library.
hp Windows XP"i want to know will yamipod copy everything to my itunes from my ipod like playlists and the name of the ipod , settings etc"
Yamipod copies music (including playlist). Your settings are stored on the iPod and will not change. That includes the name you gave it which should show up in iTunes whenever you connect the iPod.
Yamipod does not transfer play-counts, ratings etc. -
I had to restore my iPhone and lost a lot of music!!! How can I get it back?! No cloud appears next to the songs, just buy!
You should be storing everything on your computer and you should always backup your computer. Have you failed to do these things?
If so, not good, then you can redownload some iTunes purchases in some countries. Open iTunes store, click Purchased under Quick links -

I really want to transfer all my content of my iTunes library like apps for my iPhone and also music to my new library on my new PC computer. Is there any way that I can do this?
Copy the entire iTunes Media folder in My Documents>My Music>iTunes and put it in the same location on your new computer. Then open iTunes and go to File>Add to library, and select all the stuff there that you want to add to your iTunes.

New computer, how do I get my files off my old ipod to the new computer?
So, my old computer is completely fried. It's dead. We got a new one and I would really love it if someone could tell me how I would be able to keep the songs off my ipod when I hook it up to the new computer.
You cannot do it with iTunes, except for music purchased from the iTunes Store. However, there are numerous third-party utilities that provide this function. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer music," you will see some links.
Once you get the files off the iPod and on your new computer, you just need to get them into your iTunes library and then sync your iPod to that library. -
I downloaded the new software ios5 the other day. Woke up this morning and all my calendar events are gone! How do I get everything back??
Plug in your iPhone. Restore it. If it asks you if you want to back it up say no. When the restoring is done, without plugging in your iPhone, you should get an option to restore your iPhone from a back up or a new iPhone option. Restore it from your back up. It has nothing to do with iCloud but I recommend you set up an iCloud account to avoid loosing stuff like your contacts. And it's free.

I have transferred all of the songs from the old iMac we own to a new one we just bought. I have already had one problem with the music as in some songs wouldn't play without me using sharing. So I took and old computer off the sharing network and all is well there. But my iPod Touch will not download any music, tones, or pictures without me taking all of the previous items on my iPod Touch. Anyone have any clue what I should do?
Since I am impatient and can't wait for 90 minutes for an answer, I have decided to lose everything on my iPod and try to remember all the songs I had on them. But if anyone can help me prevent this in the future, that woud be great!

Changed computer. Some of the songs purchased on iTunes store won't play. Error message says I need to authorize computer. Computer is authorized. I reauthorize it. Message comes back telling me it's authorized! Cannot get out of thisvicious circle.

You may not have a backup of those files, then. Have you checked for backup according to this knowledge base article:

How do I get the sync of my 3GS on my computer to transfer everything (files, apps, etc.) to my new iphone4? And then how do I move the sync to a newer computer so I can sync the new phone with the new computer?
My 3GS is dying and it's synced to an older computer. I have tons of datafiles as well as apps, music, text messages, etc. that I need to get moved to the new iphone4 I'm getting. Then I need to move the sync to a newer computer so that I can sync the new phone and new computer.
I understand how to get my apps to transfer to a new pc. That's not the issue. It's getting ALL the data from the 3GS to the 4 and then to a new computer.
Thanks.Thanks much, that's very helpful for step one (getting old phone onto new phone). Very clear.
However, I still have the problem of moving to the new computer. How do I move the sync to the new computer after the new phone is set up? -
How can I synch my ipod & iphone music (purchased from itunes on my old laptop) to my new laptop? I keep getting the same message on my itunes on my new laptop: " The ipod/Iphone is synched with another itunes library. An ipod/iphone can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would you like to do - Erase and Synch or Transfer Purchases?" What do I do?
A couple of other items:
1) I am guessing Apple does not keep a history of all my music purchases? As I did not have my entire library backed-up anywhere, and relying on the music I have on my ipod and my iphone as my only source of itunes music....I have lost over 500 songs!!!
2) I used to have an Apple account under another account name, and since have switched to a new account name. Is there anyway to find the history of purchases from my old Apple account name and transfer these over to my new account name and onto my new laptop?
I hope someone can help, I am having a very difficult time trying to obtain answers. AngieThe iphone/ipod is NOT a storage/backup device. Not maintaining a backup copy is a big mistake.
You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone/ipod to your computer:
Authorize your computer for all accounts and then click File>Transfer Purchases -
How come I can't put music on my ipod? I already have a fair amount of music on my ipod but I have enough space for more. I am using a new computer with itunes and it is telling me if I wasnt to put the new music on my ipd i need to erase my ipod HELP!
Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
- Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
- Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup.
Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
To move mdia to the new computer see:
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
