Thank you!

New Computer, Old iTunes

My old computer died on me so I now have a new one. How can I upload my old iTunes account with all of my music to my new computer?

*How can I upload my old iTunes account with all of my music to my new computer?*
Do you have any of your music from the old computer backed up? If you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
"Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
You could try contacting the iTunes Music 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 any of the links on this page you'll find a space at the bottom to email your query: iTMS Customer Service
If you have an iPod that still has the purchases on it the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer

Old computer died need to make new computer main iTunes account

My main PC died and I now my laptop is my main computer. I need to make this computer the main computer for my iTunes account. How do you do this?

There are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

How do I move DVD digital copies from my iphone to a new computer's itunes account, same Apple ID?

I just got a MacBook Pro and I also have an iphone. My current main itunes is on a PC that I will not use any longer. I have several movies on my iphone which came with DVD's as digital copies, not purchased through itunes store.
In the past, I've lost these kinds of movie digital copies through syncing my phone on a new computer. I don't want this to happen again but I am totally lost since these are not itunes purchases.
How can I sync my iphone on my new mac's itunes and not "erase and replace" all the movies currently on my phone? Or how can I get them onto my Mac's itunes account so when I do sync my iphone, they'll still be there?
Thanks!

It's best to copy from your old computer to your new computer before syncing your phone with your new computer for the first time:

If everything were from the iTunes Store, you could do this:

Since it's not all from the iTunes Store, you should copy your library from your old computer to your new one, as noted above. If that's not possible and you can use only your phone as the file source, you will need to use a third-party utility such as Senuti:

There are many similar utilities. Some work just as well as Senuti and are even free.

New computer: Multiple iTunes accounts?

I've just setup my family's brand new computer and it is now time to install iTunes. I am wondering if iTunes is able to detect and customize itself to separate windows users. Ideally, we would like each user to be able to create their own play-lists, attach their own iTunes store accounts, and if possible have their own personal library, all independent of each other. If not, I suppose I could create multiple iTunes installs and fiddle with the shortcuts, one for each user, but that's a sloppy fix.
Thank you.

Just install it. Like any program, each person can run the program from their own user account, and will see only their own library.
Note that if anyone makes a purchase, from the iTunes Store or any other online music download store, it will be downloaded to their own library, and the others will not see it unless arrangements are made. But I think that is what you want.

New HD, Old iTunes account PW

I know this is a common thing, but I can't find the answer. I just installed a new HDD in my MacBook and now iTunes has dropped off 125 songs because they are authorized under an old account no longer used. I can't remember the old password from 5 years ago, nor can I remember the old security question answer to access the old password. Can someone point me in the right direction for an answer to this?
Thank you.

Any reason you created a new iTunes account (rather than simply updating the old account with any new info)?

New computer, old .mac account, can't send e-mails!

A friend gave us his old Titanium PowerBook G4. We have an iBook G3 that we've been using and I'm trying to set up the new/old PB for my wife as her personal computer.
I upgraded osx on the pb and then tried to configure e-mail for my wife's account. I copied all of the info. exactly as it is in her old account on the ibook. For some reason, it will not send e-mails, though it will recieve them.
When I try to send e-mails, I get this error:
"Use the pop-up menu below to try a different outgoing mail server. All messages will use this server until you quit Mail or change your network settings."
I switched the port number from 25 to the recommended one and also double-checked that everthing was copied correctly. But we still can't send mail from her computer. I couldn't find the answer with searches... any thoughts? Thanks!

Thanks!
Here's what the error message is:
Cannot send message using the server
smtp.mac.com:wifes.address
Use the pop-up menu below to try a different outgoing mail server. All messages will use this server until you quit Mail or change your network settings.
Message from: Wife's Name <[email protected]>
Send message using: smtp.mac.com:wifes.address
So, I'm not sure what to do from here. I've tried various port addresses and none work. All that happens when I try to send a message is that I get the above error and the draft goes into the outbox.
Thanks in advance for any help, this has been really vexing for us and I'd love to get my wife up and running.

What happens to VPN , Wifi settings and Email accounts on iPad if synced with a new computer and itunes account?

I have an Ipad with VPN,Wifi connections and email accounts already created . Now I want to sync it with another computer using a new account as this device is to be given to someone else. I want to know what will happen to the settings already made as I do not want them to change ?. Deletion of Apps and other media files is ok but the settings like VPN,Email account and Wi Fi shoudl not be reset.

Wickedweapon-
Pre-installed Apps such as Mail, Camera, Photo Booth, Notes, et cetera, are kept. Any iOS updates are retained. Otherwise, the iPad is returned to its factory default settings.
If you planned to sell an iPad, you might go ahead and do the reset manually. Go to Settings-General-Reset-Erase All Content and Settings. Doing this would ensure that any sensitive personal data is erased.

Not if you first do a sync and have iTunes make a backup. However, if your only copy of the iTunes data is in the Touch, then you need to first copy the data to a new iTunes Library using third-party software such as Phone To Mac.

If I was to get a new computer and transfer all my music from my itunes on my old computer to hard drive then to my new computer and itunes, could I make a new itunes account on my new computer and still be able to use my old songs?

Anyone with information on this would be muchly appreciated!!! Thank you in advance! Oh and I currently have a windows but will be getting a mac book pro most likely

The music sync is one one way - computer to ipod. The exception is itunes purchases. File>Transfer Purchases
Have you failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer?

Hi I have a new mac book pro. I am swopping over from an imac. An authorizethis computer message has come up for an old itunes account. I have no idea what the password is. Is there a way to find out or transfer to my new account?

Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
After this, do an update from the App Store.
Thats all there is to it.
For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

How do i put my old itunes account on to new computer

how do i put old itunes account on to new computer

An itunes account is just a user name and password. You can sign into your account from any comuter that has itunes.
Are you talking about your library ( music/apps/etc)
If so then type "move itunes library" into the google search bar.
