Putting iTunes list from G5 to a Windows Vista computer

My son has recently purchased a new windows computer ( his problem , and mine now too I guess ) and he wants to transfer all his music from the G5 to it. He has it all on a backed up on a Lacie hard drive that has Firewire, but the new windows computer only has USB .. Is there a way or many different ways to accomplish this ?
The windows computer has both a CDRW/DVD and DVD+/-RW drive if that helps at all !
Thanks Much !

I just made a back up DVD on the G5 and then loaded it onto the Vista iTunes .. worked great and took 10 mins total with both machines

  • Transfering iTunes music from Macbook Pro to Windows Vista Computer?

    I just bought a Vista based computer and I wanted to use it for my music since it has a lager hard drive than my mac. How can I get my music off the mac and onto the pc? I have tried using the iPod to transfer it, but Windows will not read it since it is not formated for windows. I read that on a Apple article. At one point in time, I had taken some music off a Mac Pro or P5 desktop and put it onto my Windows XP laptop. I cannot remember how I did this though. If anyone has any suggestions, that will be great. Also would it be easier to maybe "link the two computers together"? I don't know if that is possible. You guys tell me. Thanks again for any replies on how to accomplish this or links to places that could help me. I really would like to make this work.

    thanks i figured it out all i did was open ibooks and then click and dragged into a folder i made on the desktop and that worked wonderful so easy to do
    thanks again

    The article says that I should upgrade to the latest iTunes. I am on the latest iTunes version.
    If you could read just a tiny little bit further, under the "Additional Information" section immediately after that, it says:
    If you are still experiencing this issue when syncing, or have not installed Xcode 4 and get this alert:
    Follow the troubleshooting steps in Mac OS X v10.5, v10.6: Resetting the SyncServices folder.
    If the issue is still unresolved, follow steps in Sync Services: Advanced troubleshooting for contact and calendar syncing.
    Have you tried those measures?

    a colleague of mine suffers from the same problem. did a quick look on the apple support pages. found many topics covering the same problem.

    Hi Rick,
    by "repair" I mean I went to the control panel, option - programs and features, and in the list of all my installed programs I selected "Apple Software Update". On top of the screen you find the options Uinstall, Change and Repair. I clicked the repair button and that did the trick. After the repair I could uninstall the program. I also uninstalled iTunes, Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support en Bonjour, thus all Apple programs. Then I installed iTunes 10.5 again and everything went fine.
    Success,
    Peter

  • My ipod classic ran out of battery, when I turned it back on all my songs were gone. How can I recover them on a windows vista computer? Also, the itunes on my vista does not have all my original songs. Please help

    My Ipod Classic died because it ran out of battery. Finally, today when I was able to plug it into my computer to
    charge it, all my music was gone. It did not show up on the Itunes nor was it present on my Ipod. Which freaked
    me out.  I dont know what to do because I do have Itunes but all the music I had on my Ipod was from my
    first computer, which I no longer have because it was stolen.  However, on my Itunes it says my Ipod
    has 14.27 GB used and 13.55 FREE. So I just want to know how to get my music back on to my Ipod
    and that it shows up in Itunes again. I have a Windows Vista so if anyone knows instructions it would
    be greatly appreciated!

    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • Does anybody know to authorize a windows vista computer with the new itunes?

    does anybody know to authorize a windows vista computer with the new itunes?

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

  • I recently had to do a complete system restore how do i transfer my itunes library from my iphone back onto my computer

    I recently had to do a complete system restore on my computer. How do i transfer the itunes content from my iphone back onto my computer?

    You don't.
    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases.
    The iphone is not a backup device.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a  backup copy of your computer. Certainly you did not restore your system without making sure that your backup copy was up to date.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good) then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • How do i put my music from my ipod on to my computer??

    my computer crashed and i am trying to save my songs and i want to put them on a completly fresh itunes library and i cant seem to figure out how to do this! all i want to do is put my songs from my ipod on to my computer so i can keep them without having to burn 5 million cd's again! and plus most of the cd's i used were my friends and other people's that i cant even get a hold of now! so if you have an answer please share!!!!

    This might be a bit late, but I just registered on this board, so bear with me.
    There is software that moves songs from an ipod to a computer. It's called Tune Tools and can be ordered at
    http://valusoft.com/products/tunetoolsmm.html
    With this software, you can back up your ipod, recover lost or corrupted itunes files, and many more. I have this software and it's a godsend.
    Let us know if this works for you.

  • ITunes no longer works on my Windows VISTA system.  Get error msg saying C runtime library incorrectly... Error 7, Windows error 1114..

    iTunes no longer works on my Windows VISTA system.  Get error msg saying an application is attempting to access C runtime library incorrectly... Error 7, Windows error 1114.  Same msg, or one that says unable to install, when trying to update or reinstall iTunes.  iTunes worked well up until about a month ago when this error msg starting appearing.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
