On home sharing, how can i share all of my music? It only shares the purchased songs from itunes.

I just  got a new laptop, and need to share my itunes account from my previous laptop to this one.
Both laptops have updated Itunes accounts and are authorised and home shared.
However, on the new one it has only transferred across my Itunes store bought songs, not any of the other 800 songs from downloads or cds that i have put on.
How can i get these onto my laptop without using an external drive?
Thanks.

Unless you subscribe to itunes match, icloud has nothing to do with music.  Are you syncing music from a computer's itunes to a device?

    Apple Senior tech lady deleted all my external drive data while sorting out other problem. How can I restore all my photos , music etc back to my Mac Pro?(I am so scared, I haven't connected iPhone to sync! Please help)

    It was tele tech. I couldn't open my Page Numbers etc. Frist tech chat idiot - following dumping few things in bin, asked me yo upgrade to Yosemite. But the problem still persists. This morning I was asked to do it via telephone and like yesterday, after wasting 20 min, I was put to this apparent Tech Queen ( my foot!). She eventually decided to reinstall  Yosemite asked me to connect my external drive while I connected to her. She was moving cursor asking me to move files and delete and I followed her like a dummy. It took 3/4 hours and she called me 3 times once the lengthy process was completed. I suspected from the beginng for the fact that why should be asking me to click all my backup from the very beginning! Eventually she said I deleted... Or someone else or may be my children ! It was a blatant lie. I run my small business from home and I was simply staying in front of the Mac whole day! Children were at school. Then she said I must have used another computer! I only have laptop and the iPad. I will talk to their manager first thing in the morning. In the mean time please let me know as to how can I transfer photos, music etc back to my laptop from my Iphone and IPad .? I am will connect to laptop as I am worried the new BLANK iPhoto may supersede iphone/iPad stuff? Will it? Please let me know. I am not a very tech savvy person. My son who could help me, is in Manchester Uni and Inam in London.

    There's some third party applications available for recovering content off an iPod, iPhone or iPad. The following article is pretty old (2008) so it would be best to reality-check the capabilities and availability of the various listed items prior to opting for a particular product:

    Hello lramospsych,
    To move your iTunes media library to a different location, take a look at the article below to walk you through that process. Make sure that you have everything organized before you move everything over.

  • HI, I need your help. How can I delete all data, when I do not have the special security code, which I didn´t remember ? I also think, that I never create this code before. But I cannot put my settings back.

    You must remember the code, if you can't then take the phone and proof of purchase to an Apple Store.

    hello good morning ....how can I have all my PDF files  in Ibooks at the same time in my iPad and my iPhone, Thanks.

    That's exactly how it's going to work. Unless you've set up separate iTunes playlists for your devices, the books will be deposited the books section on iTunes, and will appear as PDFs.
    As Gus2259 said, you can use iCloud or Dropbox, or transport it through iTunes via an attached computer, or even use a cable.

  • How can i remove all of the purchased songs from my phone?

    I want to remove all of the purchased songs from my phone, but I'm not having any success.  I've transferred the purchases to iTunes, and turned off the cloud on my phone, but they are still there.  They will not let me delete them...

    OK, maybe time to get extreme.  I've had similar experiences, sometimes occurring after making direct-to-device purchases and sometimes after doing an iOS update.  In the two times I've experienced what you've seen I've fixed it by digging deeper, bear with me:
    If your iPhone is not set for manual management, do so. (i.e. select "Manually manage music and video")
    While connected to iTunes, navigate the contents of the iPhone.  Select all songs and delete them.  Ignore the gray ones if still present.
    Eject the iPhone and go to Settings/ General/ Usage/ Manage Storage.  Let the list populate then select the Music category.  In the next screen, swipe across "All Songs" from right to left and tap Delete.
    Connect back to iTunes, perform a backup, then restore the iPhone and reload the backup.
    Your iPhone should now have its settings, accounts, and apps back, but no music -- not even the "ghost" entries.  Add the music back that you want, either via manually dragging and dropping from iTunes, or auto-syncing all or a portion of your library.
    Some people reported luck with just step #3.  The problem I've had with that, is any music that I want remaining on the iPhone gets corrupted, such that playback will skip and/or show the wrong artwork.  By deleting all music first, then following up with a restore, that seems to clear the problem.  Personally I avoid direct-to-device purchases since I've had spooky occurrences almost every time where the purchases are very difficult to remove.

  • I have purchased songs from itunes on my ipad but now they are not there anymore. How can they get them back? Dont come up in songs not on this ipad and in itunes it asks to buy again

    If you are now in the US then you can only use the US store, so you should update the address on your account
    Changing country : Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account.
    Had you copied the songs over to your computer's iTunes library, do they show in the Music section on it ? You can copy purchases that you still have on your iPad over to your computer's iTunes library via the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option

    If you're syncing with a different iTunes library than the one you previously synced with, then there is no way around it. You're gonna loose the old data. The only way round it would be to make sure that all the music files on your iPhone is also in your iTunes library. If you still have access to the computer with the old library, you could copy the files on to an external harddrive, and then import them into your new iTunes library.
    If it is in fact the same library, then the music currently on your iphone, is also in your itunes library. Just make sure that the artists/albums/playlists, or whatever you sync contains these tracks, that you allready have on your phone and don't want deleted. What i do is, i create a playlist specifically for my iPhone, and i set it up to only sync with this playlist. Whenever i hear a track from my iTunes library or buy a new track that i want on my phone, i just drag it to this playlist and next time i synchronize, it's there without deleting anything else.

    Im switching email accounts on my itunes account am the computer isnt recognizing purchases made from my other account on the new one (apps). How can I sign in with my new account and get the purchases apps on both accounts?

    This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
    This is a picture of what it looks like now:
    http://tinypic.com/r/107quxu/7
    As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
    any way to get around that?

    How can I re-download previously purchased songs from itunes?

    You only get one download.  It is your responsibility to backup your purchases.
    UNLESS, you are in the U.S, then you can use the Beta version of icloud.  Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick links
