Still trying to copy itunes to new PC from old Ibook

I am getting very frustrated! I bought a new PC laptop that I want to transfer my (1000 song) library to from my old Ibook. I want to keep the itunes on the Ibook for using with my home stereo and as a backup. I have been trying to use a flash drive to make the transfer, but it always says that the drive has to be formatted to use in either computer, so it won't work transferring them from Mac to PC, because if I format it on the Mac and load it up, then the PC can't read it and vice versa. There are so many songs that it would be a real pain to copy them to the disks and transfer them that way. What else can I do? One person suggested connecting them with a USB cable, but would that work going from Mac to PC? Aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh! This is frustrating! ANY help is much appreciated!

here's a thread that answers it for you, enjoy

  • Trying to download itunes onto new PC from browser, it comes up with thanks for downloading but it is not !

    Trying to download itunes onto new PC from browser, it comes up with thanks for downloading but it is not !

    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?

  • Internal Order number is copied while cretaing new SC from Old PO

    Hi,
    We are on SRM 5.0. When i tried to create a new shopping cart through by copying the old shopping cart from 'Old Purchase Orders and templates' the Internal Order number is also being copied which is a problem.
    I appreciate any help.
    Thank you

    Hi..
    Thanks for the response. Yes we are using using internal order(IO) in account assignment.
    This creates a problem, because the approver is unable to identify if the PR is  one which is already approved that was rejected by someone else (so therefore doesn't need a new IO), or whether it's a brand new PR that needs a new IO.
    So is there someway so that the cost assignment does NOT get copied onto the new PR? Any relevant BADI's that can be used ?
    Thanks.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    Thank you.  That helped in the first step.  I was able to copy text onto multiple pages.

  • I am trying to copy more or less 30G from my MacbookPro to an external hard drive and it is stuck in the "preparing to copy" step. But that for more than one hour. What should I do to make it faster? Thanks a lot in advance!

    Thanks Shootist007, by blockd files I mean files that I have changed to blocked and when I tried to move then for the first time, I had to unblock again. I am trying to backup my pictures, my songs and other files like word documents and excel tables. First I put all of them as blocked, what caused the first problems on trying to move them. Then, I've unchecked the block option and if I try to move one by one, there is no problem. The issue is to move all together, because it gets stuck in the preparing to copy files step. Anyway, if I cannot do all by once, I'll do it one by one, event though that was not suposed to happen if we are talking about technology, right? Anyway, I thank you again for trying to help me!

  • When I type fi in InDesign, the f is deleted.  If I hit backspace, the f comes back, but the i is deleted.  I even tried to copy the text I need from Word.  When I paste it, the f is deleted.  I've restarted InDesign and tried a different keyboard.

  • How to transfer my certificate to this new account from old acount

    how to transfer my certificate to this new account from old acount

    You don't.  Registration is a one time thing that you do the first time you install an application.  Once registered it does not need to be done again.
    You should see if yoiu can have the activations reset before you try installing on a new machine so that you still have the two activations that are available to you.  If not, you should still have an activation available for use with the new installation.
    To reset activations contact Adobe Support and ask them to reset your activations....  For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...
    Serial number and activation chat support (non-CC)
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/service1.html ( http://adobe.ly/1aYjbSC )
    To get it working on the new machine you just install and activate using the serial number you should already have.

  • Migrate to new iMac from old iMac and am getting 'incompatible software' message.

    Im trying to migrate to new iMac from old iMac and am getting 'incompatible software' message. I'm not sure what to do- can I revert back to snow leopard from mavericks?

    Hi Mark,
    If you install Mavericks, or in your case migrate from an old computer running Snow Leopard (or an earlier version of Mac OS X) to one using Mavericks, some of your software that was designed to run on older computers may not function in the new OS. See this article -
    OS X: About the incompatible software folder
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3258
    In particular -
    If you see a message indicating that you can't use "this version" of an app, contact the software's vendor or visit their website to see if a later, compatible version of the app is available. If you purchased the software from the Mac App Store, use Software Update to see if an updated version is available there.
    and
    During installation, OS X moves known-incompatible software to a folder named "Incompatible Software" at the top level of the startup drive. If this folder is present on your Mac, see what applications are in it, then check for available updates. To obtain a newer version of an Apple app, check the Mac App Store, or visit the Apple Store website.
    Regarding installing an older operating system on your new iMac, Apple does not support doing this, as described in this article -
    Don't install a version of Mac OS X earlier than what came with your Mac

  • I have chosen to fil migrate from old ibook to new MacBook Pro using Time Machine after establishing admin account. I now have two admin. accounts and wish to delete the later one and transfer files manually. I am worried I will loose both accounts. ??

    Use the Office for Mac and ignore using Parallels for that. If you have PC only apps you have to run that are MS Windows only then consider Parallels. Just transfer your main PC, using Migration Assistant.  If you don't know how then simply read over Pondini's article called Lion or Mountain Lion Setup Assistant tips and look for the section on migrating from a PC. Millions have done what you are about to, it's far from leading edge these days, if you go to an Apple Store to purchase they will offer this as a service, something you might be interested in.

  • Trying to transfer music to itunes on new pc from ipod that was synced from old pc that is no longer usable

    old pc from which i synced my ipod is broken.
    cannot perform a direct file transfer.
    need to import music to new pc from ipod, but neither itunes nor the computer itself will import the music files.
    i do not have all of the old cds, and it would be an extremely time-consuming process going through so many discs to pick out over 800 single songs anyway. help?
    other details:
    new pc runs on windows 7
    old pc ran on windows 8
    ipod software updated 6 jan 2015
    running itunes 12

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself independently backed up against loss.  To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. Media syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Technically if you no longer own the CD then you no longer have the right to a copy of the music.
