New laptop, new itunes, help with sync.

I have bought a new laptop. Downloaded itunes and installed it. I have hooked up iphone 4 to laptop. Authorized the compter for itunes. Seeing its a new laptop and new itunes download, there are no songs in the itunes library. How do I get all the songs (966) from my iphone to the itunes library? Sync does not do it.

ITunes help with syncing; many error messages, Help please!

So, I have downloaded and re-downloaded the new iTunes 10.7 about a thousand times. Everytime I try to download, I get the message "rolling back" and then it starts up again and continues to download. Once downloaded, I plug my iPod touch 4th generation in and I get two pop-up messages: the first says "...mobile device is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation or contact your system administration or the software vendor for support." The next message I receive is "iTunes requires a newer version of Apple Mobile Device Support. Please uninstall both Apple Mobile Device Support and iTunes, then install iTunes again." What am I doing wrong? Can someone please help? I would greatly appreciate it. I have been at this for about 4 hours and all I want to do is buy the new Red album and listen to it commuting to college.

Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Mobile Device Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Mobile Device Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
Can you connect without the errors now?

The iPhone like all iDevices is not a storage device, it is merely a mirror of the content in the library to which it is synced.
If you wish to sync to a new computer, the first step is to copy or move the iTunes media library from the old computer to the new computer. This can be done via the network or by using an external hard drive.
Once the library has been moved, simply sync to the new computer.

I recently bought a new laptop, installed iTunes and imported my library during a sync with my iPhone. Now I've noticed that any tracks that were ripped into my library from a CD won't play on my iPhone. They're visible but with a red circle next to them.

Hi, BartleyBauer.
If the media that you are attempting to sync plays in iTunes, try removing the preference to sync music as this remove the media from the device. Once this is done, try syncing the media again.

What do you mean "not working"? That could mean multiple different things.
If help is desired, be as specific as possible.

iTunes as you see it in the application window uses a series of files and folders contained in the iTunes folder. Some people make the mistake of only backing up their media in which case all you have is a bunch of media files without the iTunes structure. In that case you have to build a new library yourself.
What exactly do you mean "not recognized"? The phone does not show up on the computer at all, or it does but it says it will wipe the phone? The wipe the phone stuff is again because it cannot find the original library to which it was synced. You need to transfer the entire iTunes folder from the old computer or the backup you made of it.

Changed passocde now cant remember it my ipod is now diasble and asking to be connected to i tune but mum has a new laptop and my ipod not synced to this how can i fix my ipod

changed my passcode on my ipod now I cant remember it it asking me to connect to iTunes but my mum has a new laptop and my ipod is synced to her old one witch is not working how do I restore my ipod to the old setting

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

TS1717 While downloading the latest iTunes version, my computer turned off. When I opened iTunes, it says that "The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes" Help please :(

That message is usually a sign that you tried to roll back to an earlier build of iTunes, but occasionally I've seen it connected to a new upgrade. This technique should fix things.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
