New computer how can I get my old purchases on the new computer?
I got a new computer, but don't know how to get my itunes to transfer my purchases over to new computer and don't want to lose all my music... can someone help?
Go to the iTunes Store and select "Purchased" from the Quick Links side bar on the right. Go through all the tabs to download again for free

Broke my old computer, how can i get my old account on to new computer?
My old computer was destroyed before I could retrieve any information off of it. I was given a computer that already had itunes installed, but now I can't use this new computer as my primary account and cannot sync my ipod with this new computer without first dlelting all of my ipod information. How can I get this cuurent itunes account back to "virgin" and how can I make this my one-and-only syncable itunes account? Thank you so much for any help you can offer!
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use this to put eveything back.

I had my ipod synced to an old computer that I no longer have how can i get all my stuff on the new itunes without erasing it
Most Windows users don't.
Purchase an external hard drive and use the backup software that comes with it to backup files from your computer.
Buy TouchCopy and install it on your new computer, connect your old iPod and transfer your songs to your computer. -

a mere search for your username with quotes no brackets [ "freedone" ] yielded 313 results - but there IS another username "freedoneb" that may take up some of that real estate

My Firefox is not working (All I get is a blank white screen with the firefox logo. If I have to reinstall Firefox 3.66, how can I transfer my old profile to the new installation?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox openedDavid. Thank you very much. The problem was not with the canvas but rather the Viewer. But the solution was the same. Somehow, the Viewer window was re-set to Alpha. I changed it back to RGB.... and the picture is back. These issues are often very simple.... but they can drive you bats if you don't know the answer. Very grateful. Tim

If this is a question about syncing with iTunes, you might want to post it over in the iTunes forum.

ok, so I transferred my 3S info to my 4S by restoring from an old phone backup. But SIRI is gone and god knows what else?? Can I get my old stuff into the new phone and keep the 4S new functionality?
I suspect unless he had some items in iCloud backup then they are gone. Connecting an iPhone to a different library from that to which it was previously connected will result in the device asking if you want to erase it.

I have an old Nano that I have about 300 songs on. I no longer have the PC with the library that this device was linked to. I have a new iPhone 5 and opened a new iTunes library to purchase songs for the new phone. How can I get the songs from the Nano to transfer to my new iTunes library that is syncd to my iPhone?
Hi Elk2bugle,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can transfer iTunes purchases from your iPod to a new computer. See this article for the steps:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
You can also download past purchases directly to your iPhone, or computer using iTunes:

My iTunes downloads were made using my old gmail address. I had to quit using this address as it got hacked. How do I get my iTunes downloads into my new iTunes account that was created with a new gmail address? In my old iTunes account (with the old gmail address, I can't 'update' my email address or even 'add an alternate address' as I had already created this gmail account and inputting the new address into iTunes gives me the 'pop-up' that 'this account is already in use.' Advice please!
Good luck. It took me weeks to fix this when I had to do it. Your old ID branches out in lots of places. You may have to delete app and get them again, at least that is what Apple told me. Plus, all of your settings on your iPad that required any ID, will have to be changed. My old ID kept showing up in different places for weeks. Changing it on Apple.com is just the beginning.

How can I get my old music into a new preexisting account?
how do I get my music from an old account to a new one (preexisting) because now i have a mac and new email and everything. please help
So you had a windows computer before?
See here for moving content options
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
When the content is moved over if it has been purchased with the old ID than it will not play until you authorise the new machine with the old Apple ID
Store > Authorise Computer.
This will not change buying content with the new iD going forwar it will just let you platy the old content as well as any new you might get.
If you are going to get rid of the old computer then it is a good idea to
Store > Deauthorise this computer -
I am trying to install an app in my iphone. When I click Install, my old gmail account comes up for verification and it asks for my password etc. I dont use this account anymore and have a new gmail account that is associated with my apple account. How can I get the new gmail to default when I am trying to install apps?
Did you create a NEW Apple ID or did you change the email address for your OLD Apple ID? This will affect how you update apps in the future.
Anyway, go to Settings/iTunes&App Stores, log out, then log in with the new ID. -
