Need help with transferring iTunes library to different computer

My old iPod stopped working so I bought a new one. For my older iPod I use a different computer but I want to use a different computer for my new iPod. I have all my songs on an external hard drive and I want to use that for my other computer. How do I keep the same library stats such as play count, last played, date added etc. on the new computer? When I am looking through the iTunes files there are multiple library databases and I don't know which one contains all my stats data that I want to transfer over to the new computer. Also, how do I transfer all my playlists to the other computer? Thanks!

Copy the entire iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.

How to transfer itunes library to new computer? files are saved on ipod

I have an ipod classic with all my music and movies but now that I have a new laptop and had to download itunes again none of my songs are in my library! I have not synced for fear of losing what I do have so I also need to know how to save what I have into a file on the computer as backup.
Help save my music!

iTunes will only let you copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
For everything else (music from CDs, other downloads and including iTunes purchased songs and in some cases, videos and games) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
A selection of iPod to iTunes utilities:
TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)

iDump Windows Only
YamiPod Mac and Windows

iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

Transfer ITunes Library to New Computer

My old computer has crashed and I can no longer access anything on it including ITunes. I am purchasing a new computer...how can I have all of my songs moved to my new computer so I can access all of my music which I've already purchased.

The policy on music/media purchases is that you only get one download and it's up to you to maintain a backup against loss: iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
The licensing of Purchased applications allows for them be downloaded over again, see this article for details: How to redownload purchased applications from the App Store
If you have an iPod that still has any of your purchases on it you'll find details in this article on how to transfer them to the computer: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
Failing this, you could try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on this link it'll take you to the support/contact page, from there click on Music Purchases then the Lost or Missing Items option, from there click on "Email Us": Customer Service - iTunes Store Support

Where is the import button on the new itunes to transfer itunes library to new computer?

I cannot find the import button anywhere. I am following the posted thread found on the support forums but it has not been updated since the new iTunes came out.

Hello gyang94137,
The resources below will provide an overview of the new iTunes 12 interface. The Quick Tour, from the Help menu, will also help you acclimate to the new design.
Here's the specific information on how to repeat songs from the iTunes Help online:
Play songs - iTunes Help
http://help.apple.com/itunes/mac/12/#/itns2989
Shuffle or repeat songs
Do any of the following:
Turn shuffle on or off: Click the Shuffle button
Shuffle is on when the arrows are blue.
Shuffle albums or groupings: Choose Controls > Shuffle > Albums (or Groupings). iTunes plays the songs in the order in which they appear on the album or in the grouping, and then chooses another album or grouping at random.
Repeat all songs in the current view (for example, a playlist): Choose Controls > Repeat > All.
Repeat the currently playing song: Choose Controls > Repeat > One.
Turn repeat off: Choose Controls > Repeat > Off.

Did you downgrade iTunes? What version is listed in Help> About iTunes?
If you don't have iTunes 10.5.2, download it from here -> http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you have iTunes 10.5.2, try re-creating your iTunes library.

Transfer iTunes library to new MacBook Pro while maintaining playlists, ratings, etc.

I just got my new MacBook Pro for college, and I need to transfer my entire iTunes library (19,000+ songs) from my dektop Mac to my new computer. I have tried a lot of people's methods concerning transfering libraries, but everytime, I lose my playlists, play counts, and ratings. I have tried a lot of methods, but none seem to work. I have tried consolidating libraries and other methods. Does anyone have any ideas of what I might be doing wrong.
(I have a 1TB hd that houses all of the music for my iTunes library for my desktop. I am attempting to move it all to the MBP. My MBP has two partitions, one of which is for storage and music (not my Macintosh HD) which is where I am attempting to copy my library to from the 1TB drive.)
Thanks in advance!

Here's one way to connect two computers. There's other ways but we have absolutely no idea what hardware you have. - How to use FireWire target disk mode - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661 - includes description of hardware and software requirements.
As for files and folders to copy and where; Kappy has already made a list above, including showing locations. As for how; using drag and drop in Finder will probably work, but it will depend upon how you eventually connect the computers, or use a hard drive, or a flash drive... Currently there are too many unknowns about your system to provide a detailed list without itemizing for hundreds of different scenarios.
By the way, feel free to start a new topic for a question. This one was really about sorting out chrisbraun5's issue.

How can I transfer my iTunes library to new computer?

I have all of my songs on my iTunes library in a older computer. Just got a new computer and I don't know how to transfer my iTunes library from old computer to my new one. I tried out few ideas but i can't do the task.
I really appreciate any help or advice.

How about using an external drive? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
or follow this article using cd's and restore afterwards on your new computer. Don't forget to authorize your new computer in the store menu in itunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
