NEW COMPUTER - HOW TO GET MY SOFTWARE ON THIS ONE

I have just got a new computer as my old one - which had creative suites on - broke. how do I get access to my software on my new computer?

Hi,
You can do a fresh installation using the installer bits available at the following link/location Download CS5.5 products
For suites, you need to download and copy both .7z and .exe in the same folder. Clicking .exe will extract all relevant installer files. You can then install the suite. Use your existing Serial number when prompted.

Had to purchase new computer - how to get itunes to delete old one?

Yesterday after loading some itunes apps and stuff, my whole computer crashed. I got the dreaded BSOD. I ended up purchasing a new laptop today. I have went to itunes it keeps asking if I want to erase this ipod and replace with the library on this computer. I don't want to do that. I wasn't able to save anything from the old computer. It did transfer the songs that were on her ipod to the laptop, but not the games. It also did not transfer a new app I just purchased for her. It shows it in my purchases, but it won't sync over. Please help! I don't know what caused my crash and I don't want to go thru it again!!!

See this previous discussion especially the second post (first reply).
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2594650&tstart=15
Regarding the games, is the computer authorized for the account that purchased the games? If not they will not transfer. You can always redownload them at no cost. See:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
You will end up having to erase the contents of the iPod and replace them with those in Itunes of the new computer though.

Everytime I try to use the option sync manual it wants me to erase everything.
Please help

The iPhone can be synced to one and only one computer at a time. Before you "marry" it to your new computer, be sure your new computer contains all the old computer's information. When you sync the iPhone to a new computer, it will be erased first. Then, whatever is on your iTunes Library will be synced to the iPhone.
Read: iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
You can also copy its previous backup from the old computer to the new one, then "restore from backup".
From iTunes: About iOS backups
Where iTunes backups are stored on your computer
The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key.

New computer --- how to get my iPod on it??

I got a new computer and I don't want to risk losing everything I already have in my iPOD. How do I transfer? Sorry, I'm a beginner to all of this!

1). Connect your iPod to your new computer. If it is set to sync automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
Alternatively open iTunes first and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box "Disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods" and choose Ok. Then connect your iPod.
2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you continue to use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
3). Once you are connected and your iPod is safely in manual mode there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. iTunes will only give you the option to 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 etc) 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)
iPod2PC Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
YamiPod Mac and Windows
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
Floola Mac & Windows
iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
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
4). Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
5). 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

Getting a new computer-how to get ITunes purchases onto it

Last year, my laptop with ITunes broke apart and I had to get a new laptop. When I re-installed ITunes and synched my IPOD, all of my purchases were gone and not showing up in my account. In the event I have to buy a new computer in the future, how do I get ITunes on the computer and manage to keep all of my purchases?

New Computer - How to get my apps from iPhone?

Hi.
I re-installed my OS 10.5 as I was having some problems. Im now trying to sync my iPhone with the computer and it says that my iPhone is linked to another account/computer.
Any ideas how i can get my apps onto this computer?
Thanks, Benji

Don't forget to back up manually. You can do this by right clicking on the phone in the device list and choosing "backup". All settings and 3rd party data will be transferred to itunes as well. See what's inside a backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event to make sure your contacts and calendars are merged, if you didn't sync your phone after the reinstalled OS.

It can depend on which software you need to download. If you originally purchased the siftware by download, then look in your Adobe account online to see if there are links to download it again.
Alternatively, you can check the following page to see of your software is included in the available downloads:

If you registered the software when you first installed it then you should be able to find the serial number available thru your Adobe account online.

I had to get a new computer - how do I re-download acrobat, which I have purchased and have the serial number for

When you buy software to download it's VITAL to archive what you download, preferably to a CD/DVD. I write the serial number on the disk for completeness.
That said, you may be able to log on to My Adobe and see if they have a record of your purchase, and it's recent enough to still have a download. If it's the CURRENT version you can just download the demo.

Bought new computer- how do i get all my itunes song off old computer and onto new one?

i recently purchased a new computer and installed ITUNES on it. Once I put in my APPLE ID all my purchased songs showed up (songs i purchased through ITUNES on my old computer). Here is the problem, my old computer has around 800 songs on it from cd's that I owned and downloaded those songs into ITUNES. Now i want those songs on my new ITUNES on my new computer but don't know how to get them there. I have tried the following so far:
- Tried syncing my ipod and ipad to the new computer but each time I do this the new computer ITUNES wants to wipe out the 800 songs and just put on the transfered purchases songs.
- Tried 'home sharing'. When I did home sharing with both computers on and ITUNES opened all the songs showed up on my new computer but as soon as I closed out ITUNES on the old computer the 800 songs went away on the new computer and it went right back to the songs I purchased.
Please someone tell me there is an easy way to take all these songs I have on ITUNES on the old computer and transfer them to my new computer and ITUNES without having to bust out all these old cd's and sit there and re-burn them all on the new computer.
I have in addition to this all ready authorized my new computer with ITUNES so that is good to go. Any help would be appreciated...

Are they not on your new computer after you restored your iTunes backup?
Didn't have a backup?
Unlike music you can download apps multiple times. Go to each app, download it (ignore the price) and after you click it will tell you that you've already purchased the app and ask if you want to download it again.

I have 2 ITunes accounts and I am doing a restore to a new computer - how do I get the music in the right libraries - I'm going to XP to Windows 7

I am replacinbg a Windows XP machine with Windows 7. I have all music backed up, but I'm not sure how to restore it to the new machine. There is both my account and my husbands. And we are not using the cloud - the music was physically on the old machine. How do I do this?

It's a bit difficult for me to give advice on your specific issues, doing it "remotely."
If you still have your Mozy backup or your old computer, with its iTunes folder "as is" (the way you want it copied to the new computer), you may want to start over on the new computer.
The External drive method from the previously linked article provides the basic steps, except that you don't need to use an external drive as part of the process. You can use something else as the "transfer vehicle" in place of an external drive. For example, if you are able to setup File Sharing between the two computer, the network connection is the transfer vehicle. If you use your Mozy backup, your online storage is your transfer vehicle.
So these are the restated steps, for your situation as I understand it.
Part 1: Locating and consolidating the iTunes Media folder - If all of your iTunes files (songs, podcasts, videos, etc.) were already in your iTunes Media folder (on the old computer), which is the default setting for iTunes, you don't need to do this step.
Part 2: Copy iTunes folder from the old computer - If your Mozy backup has a copy of the iTunes folder from the old computer, you have already done this step.
Part 3: Get iTunes ready on your new computer - If iTunes is already install on your new computer, you have already done this step.
Part 4: Back up any music that's already on your new computer - If you do not have any new songs or other media to the new computer's iTunes library that were not already on your old computer, you do not need to do this step.
Part 5: Copy music to your new computer - So, this is really your only critical part. iTunes should NOT be running.
1. Locate the folder \Users\username\My Music\iTunes\ on your new computer.
2. Drag that iTunes folder to the Desktop. This just gets the existing "empty" iTunes folder out of the way.
3 & 4. In your Mozy backup folder, locate the equivalent iTunes folder from the old computer. NOTE: You want to locate the entire iTunes folder, not the iTunes Media folder inside the iTunes folder.
5. Drag the iTunes folder from the Mozy backup folder to your My Music folder, to take the place of the iTunes folder that was located there before (that you dragged to the Desktop).
6. Run iTunes. It should use the iTunes folder you just copied to your My Music folder, and everything from your older computer should be there and accessible.
Part 6: Add preexisting music that was on the new computer back into the library - Same as Part 4. If there were no new songs (or other iTunes media) on the new computer, you do not need to do this step. You can also delete the iTunes folder you dragged to the Desktop in Part 5, Step 2.
As you can see, most of the work is in Part 5. And to summarize the procedure in ONE sentence, you are basically replacing the "iTunes" folder on the new computer with the same folder from the old computer.

I am concerned about the health of my current computer but have not yet made the commitment to a new one, but:
1) How can I transfer my iTunes account to a new computer when I get one...
and
2) What can I do if my current computer suddenly implodes and I have not yet 'copied/'saved'/otherwise protected my account, as is? -- I have already had my computer crash once and had one of your people help me restore all of the paid for songs (none of the uploaded from my own collection of CD songs, of course, so I had to spend a long time rebuilding that) -- and I believe I was told you could only help me recover that material one or two times altogether, no?
WithOUT purchasing a Mach or iCloud (I actually think I have one of the later, but rarely have checked it) account, is there anything I can do to responsibly protect my account?
Thanks for any time taken on this!!!

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

HT4962 Any ideas how to get my software updated on my IPOD 3rd Generation when my computer times out? I have tried several times and it appears to take 30 plus hours. How Frustrating, not to mention the kids are too!

If the iTunes purchases are not in your iTunes library you can redownload them by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If you restore from backup, not that synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup and thus if those items are not in the iTunes library they can't be restored to the iPod during the latter part of the restore process.

OK...
See Here for one way

Or...
From your Old Computer... Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
An Added Bonus is that you will then have a Backup of iTunes...
