my old pc broke, is there any way i can transfer my itunes library to new laptop

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything on the new computer.
If for some reason you have failed to backup, then you can redownload itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Our original iTunes account is on a computer with Windows Xp.  My iPad will not sync to that computer.  Is ther any way I can access that iTunes library of music on my iPad2?

    My original iTunes account is on a computer operating a Windows Xp system. My iPad2 cannot access that music library. Is there any way the iTunes app on my iPad can access my iTunes music library without using that computer?  I have tried downloading the iTunes 10.6 to the computer, but it won't complete the download.

    You say your phone will not sync but then you say, "when it does sync."
    Does it sync or not? Did you remember to select music to sync onto your phone before clicking on Apply or Sync?
    You do have to have iTunes on your computer in order to sync your phone. And your music must be in iTunes.

  • Is there any way i can access my itunes library without downloading iTunes? i just want to view it online.

    I just want to view my itunes library online without downloading itunes. Is there anyway to do that?

    Not without being able to remotely log in to the computer containing it. An iTunes library is never stored on Apple’s servers.

  • My computer was formatted but I need to access my old content on my itunes backups. Is there any way I can acquire these iTunes backup files ever again?

    I tried recovery software but had no luck!

    You reformatted the drive in your computer. The backup files you want to access were overwritten when you re-formatted the drive. They are gone. There may be data recovery services that can get them back. Search google if you want. This has absolutely nothing to do with using an iPhone at this point. You deleted files on your computer...

  • I just got a new macbook. Is there any way I can transfer pictures or music to this new mac from my old one?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    There are different ways to transfer your data from another Mac, but as you just want to transfer pictures and music, the best way is to use an external drive. You can also connect them with a Thunderbolt or FireWire cable, but you need specific Macs to do it, so I prefer the external drive method.
    You just have to get an external drive and plug it to the old Mac. Then, open Finder, navigate to the folders with your pictures and music, and drag them to the external drive in the Finder sidebar, under "Devices".
    Then, connect the external drive to the new Mac and you will see the external drive in the Finder sidebar after opening a Finder window, so choose it. Then, just copy the pictures and music to the folder you want, for example, Music or Pictures

  • HT1202 My iPod is set to manually manage music. I have tons of different music from different computers on my iPod. Unfortunately my iPod is getting old and I'd like to purchase a new one. Is there any way I can transfer all the music to a new iPod?

    My Ipod touch is set to manually manage music. I have put music from my computer and iTunes account onto it, and music from other people's computer and iTunes accounts on it. Unfortunately I dropped my iPod and the screen cracked. It still plays music and everything just fine, but it has problems with it's battery life so I'd like to just get a completely new iPod nano. Is there any way I can transfer all the music from my iPod touch onto a new iPod nano? From what I can tell it won't let me sync any of the music on my iPod touch that is from other people's computers onto my laptop, and so I wouldn't be able to put it on a new iPod nano. Hopefully that makes sense. I'd just really really like to be able to keep all that music and not lose 2/3 of my iPod touch music library because I want to put it on a newer Ipod.

    is there any way i can transfer all my SMS messages from my 3GS to my 4 ?

    Use iTunes to backup files from your old ipod first then transfer to the new iPod. Please
    follow the steps in How to transfer your backup from one iOS device to a new device.   By the way, if you don't have the iTunes, you can use this iPhone transfer program. It help you to transfer sms and contacts from iPhone.

  • The computer that had my iTunes account on has broken, and was thrown away. All the media I bought are on my iPhone only - is there any way to re-open my iTunes on the new computer or to download them off my iPhone? Thanks!

    Buy yourself a backup drive. Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer is structured around you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer. The exception is purchased content.
    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
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software unless you have an older model iPod. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • I recently bought a new computer because the screen on my other one cracked. I didn't get to back up or keep any of my music or apps but they are still on my iPod Touch 4G with iOS5. Is there any way I can transfer them to my iTunes library?

  • I had photoshop on my hp and it stopped working, it says error 16. I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling it and nothing works. Also I just bought a Mac, is there any way i can transfer photoshop to my new computer?

    I had photoshop on my hp and it stopped working, it says error 16. I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling it and nothing works. Also I just bought a Mac, is there any way i can transfer photoshop to my new computer?

    Look at this guide:
    Configuration error 16 | CC, CS
    I don't know what version you have, but you cannot install a Windows edition on a Mac, you need the Mac edition.
    If you have Photoshop CS6, you can swap it for a Mac version, otherwise you would have to purchase a full Mac version ($700) or enroll in the $10 per month Photography program from Adobe to use Photoshop CC.

    PowerPC applications are unsupported in newer versions. You can upgrade Photoshop or you can install Snow Leopard in a partition.
    1. Open Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities) and select your drive
    2. Go to Partitions tab, press + button, create a new partition and press Apply
    3. Insert the Snow Leopard install DVD and reboot pressing C key
    4. Install it in the new partition
    5. If you want to change boot, go to System Preferences > Startup Disk and select 10.7

  • Is there any way to put a different itunes library

    is there any way that i could put music on my itunes from a different library then it's originally synced to without deleting what is already on my ipod?
    my computer just got a new hard drive, and all the music on my ipod is from my old library. i want to know if i can put the music that i have redownloaded and stuff onto my ipod and still keep all the old stuff on there. So, the first library no longer exists. And yeah, please help!

    Yes there is. There is a program called Senuti (Itunes backwards...hah...) that enables you to transfer the music from your ipod to itunes. Google it and the program is easy to use. Hope this helps
