Problem with transferring iTunes, photos, and documents.

I just bought a new macbook pro, with retina display and needed to transfer my data from my 2011 macbook pro to my new one. I bought a cord to connect the two so it would transfer faster. Not a fire wire though because it dosnt go into my 2011 model since it was before thunderbolt. Anyways, when I opended up migration assistant it gave me 4 options for what I want to transfer; Documents, Users, applications, and settings. It only transfered the useres and settings and applcatiions, but not my photos, documents, or Itunes Library. Does anyone know what might be the cause of this problem?

well itunes library would not transfer because apple wants people buying there music from the store therefore you wouldn't need to transfer if you did buy it from the store.  Photos and documents i have no idea why they won't transfer.
to fix this very easily just drop all the files you need to into airdrop and recollect them from the second device.

  • Problem with transferring itunes

    awhile back, i transfered the music from my itunes from my pc to my laptop using "podutil" which copied all of the songs from my ipod to my laptop. the program created a folder that held copies of all the songs so that itunes would be able to recognize the source of my music. it worked fine only that every song had to be copied into itunes, leaving me with 2 copies of each song. having copies of 6000+ songs on my laptop has taken up a huge chunk of space on my hard drive. yet if i delete the folder, itunes is unable to read any of the files. i was just wondering if there was a way to delete these copies without having to reimport a countless amount of cds.

  • Problems with transferring iTunes Library to new iMac

    I am having a problem with transferring my iTunes library to my new iMac. I have read many of the suggestions posted in this forum along with numerous articles on other sites. I have not seen anyone describe my exact problem.
    When I got my new iMac, I used Migration Assistant to transfer everything (files, applications, settings, etc.) from my old iMac to the new iMac. On my old iMac, the iTunes music folder (i.e., the actual mp3s) are on an external HD, while the iTunes Library file (the database and xml files) were in the /user/Music/ folder on the old iMac.
    After the Migration Assistant was done, the /user/music/ folder and the library files were copied to the new iMac, but the iTunes music folder was not. It is still on the external HD.
    If I open iTunes on the new iMac, iTunes shows me all of my songs, but if I play one, I get the "song can't be found; do you want to find it" error. In iTunes preferences on the new iMac, the "iTunes music folder location" is the new iMac.
    I have the 2 iMacs connected by a firewire cable, but neither iMac recognizes the other computer as being on the same network. That is, in Finder on the new iMac, I cannot see the external HD of the old iMac.
    I can't change the library location on the old iMac, because the new iMac does not appear in Finder or in the "Change Music Folder Location" dialog box.
    I want to move the music folder (the actual mp3s) from the external HD of the old iMac to the INTERNAL HD of the new iMac. I don't need to keep them on the old IMac, as I will be selling that computer. Of course, I want to keep all my playlists, artwork, etc from the old library.
    Does anyone have a suggestion?
    Thanks.

    Never mind. Figured it out. I attached external HD to new iMac and consolidated. Duh.

  • Have problems with transfering iTunes library from Windows to Macintosh

    Good afternoon!
    I had before Windows PC, where i had iTunes with all my music. And now i bought macbook pro. I tried to transfer iTunes library as it is described in a lot of sites in internet. But maximum what i could made - just to transfer all songs. And if before i have in iTunes folders with different music (David Garrett, Jason Mraz, music for baby, etc) now i have all songs (about 2 000) just in one list.
    Could u help me please to transfer all music with folders like it was in iTunes in Windows PC.
    Thanks in advance!

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
    For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168

  • Im new at the adobe sceen and need help with transfering a photo and before that making or down load

    im trying to find out how do I down load back drops and then apply a picture to it

    How you go about downloading a background depends on the OS (Windows or Mac OS).
    Also, be aware of copyrights; if you intend to use this background and image professionally, be sure you have permission to use them if they're not yours.
    Simple way of doing this:
    Open the background. Open the image you want in the foreground. Select > All on the menu bar. Click and drag the contents to the background image by dragging to the background image's title tab. Release.

  • My iPod says there's a problem with my last purchase and every time I try to look at my history to clear the problem it says there no connection to ITunes

    When I log into my acc it ammediatly says there's a problem with my last purchase and to go to my purchase history to clear it.  When I hit continue its suppose to take me to the history but it just loads then says cannot connect

    the itunes says that it knows that there isan ipod there, but it doesnt recognize it. I have reset the ipod, restarted my computer, and reinstalled itunes.
    Doublechecking. Have you tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components (Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Application Support, etc ...) and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

  • Is there a problem with the itunes and quick time download pages or is it my internet.

    Is there a problem with the itunes and quicktime download pages or is it just my internet.

    Some more developments ... the issue appears to be browser-specific. I can't see the download controls at the moment in either IE 8 (I'll get your message) or Safari for Windows 5.0.5 (I'll just get the blank box). But I can see the download controls in Firefox 4 and Chrome (whatever version I have of that).
    So it might be worth installing Firefox and seeing if you can get the downloads via that:

    I have a problem with the iTunes Store, I have an ipod and an iphone 2. I have a PC with Windows Vista Home Premium 2007, entering into iTunes Store on the main screen I get only AppStore, Podcast and iTunes U. In my screen I get only ipad2 Podcast, iTunes U Downloads. My problem is I can not access any application to download music, videos, books, etc..
    ITunes will be installed wrong or what should I do to activate these options?

    Go to the front page of the Store, and click Change Country.  Make sure it is set to the country where you actually are. 
    Then you will be able to see everything that is for sale in your country, which, depending where you live, might or might not include music.

  • ITunes movies no longer sync from Dell laptop or MacBook Pros (both authorized devices) to iPhone 6s or iPad Air 2s after configured at Apple store yesterday.  In the past I could see the movies in iTunes with the cover photo and sync.

    iTunes movies no longer sync from Dell laptop or MacBook Pros (both authorized devices) to iPhone 6s or iPad Air 2s after configured at Apple store yesterday.  In the past I could see the movies in iTunes with the cover photo and sync to the other devices but now there is a listing a movies with no cover photos and in fact if I try to view the movie on the MacBook Pro it cannot be found unless I download it.

    All I had to do was complain.  I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store.  I have no idea why.

    Hey floridiansue,
    Do you have an installed email program such as Microsoft Outlook?  If your email is through an online login, such as Gmail, etc, then one will have to create an email association with a program such as Microsoft Outlook on the PC for this Scan to Email system to function.

    had a problem with my itunes so i had went on itunes website and reinstall itunes for windows and after it complete it said that the feature yoy are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable i need help please!!!!!!!!!

    first, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. if it goes, good. if it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to itunes.
    next, download and install the revo uninstaller http://http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html. use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC.
           next download itunes. it worked for me hope this is helpful!!
        oonce you get into the revo uninstallergo thru to delete itunes hit uninstall on the itunes icon then you will go thru to it will tell u the same nmessage about the feature and network hit cancell then go thru and hit scan (make sure bthe advance scan button is pushed) this will take awhile but go thru the list and hit everything associated with itunes. hit delete then install itunes again. it worked for me hope it works for you!
