Due to a divorce all my music is on my iTunes and iPod. I had to buy a new computer and want to transfer my Library to the new computer. How can I do this without using an external drive and use new computer just like I do the old one? Thanks.

Due to divorce, all my music is on my iTunes and iPod. I have had to buy a new laptop and want to transfer the library to the new computer before deauthorizing the old one. I dont want to have to use an external drive every time I want to listen to my music. How can I do this and have the same basic iTunes setup as before? HELP!

You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year. It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you. Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices. See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

All new entries appear twice in iTunes

HI All. I was syncing my iPOd when Windows XP froze. I rebooted and relaunched iTunes. Now, whenever I add a folder of music to iTunes all tracks appear twice in iTUNES. I can manually delete the duplicates, but it's a bit of a pain. Any ideas what I might do to sort out the problem?
Thanks - Steve

Itunes or icolud created a ton of the same playlist and now its on all my devices (iphone, my pc itunes, and i pad) how to i get ride of the efficiently?

While on vacation I tried to create one new playlist, but for some reason my ipad decided to create thousand(s) of the same one, and since I have icloud they created were on my iphone, ipad, and my itunes library on my pc, now have and so many of the same playlist that I cant even count how many there are, but my best estimate in in the thousands. The worst part is now all of my devices with itunes are running slow, and if I click on the playlist it will run slow, and eventually works but not like it used to.
I've tried deleting them on my iphone or ipad, but to delete one takes about 10-15 seconds and it would take me about a month to do it this way. I tried deleting them from itunes on my PC but it is even worse doing it that way, it just freezes and since the names are all the same I can't even tell if there being deleted.
I have tried selecting more then one of the same playlist in itunes but it doesnt work.
Has anyone else ran into anything like this? I know it might sound kind of minor but I used my playlist all the time and now I'm scared to even click on them because it just starts this long, annoying waiting game.
Help!

I had to connect my ipod to another computer but when I synced it to the new computer I lost all my music, can I retrieve my music and if so how

You can redownlod iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
For other music you will have to get it from where yo originally obtained it.

Just did a sync with my iphone and all my books are gone in itunes and my phone!

How can I retrieve my audible books after syncing my iphone. It asked if I wanted to transfer my new iphone apps to itunes and I said yes. It transferred those apps but deleted all my audible books. I tried to use time machine to go back to before the sync but I get this message.
“iTunes” can’t be modified or deleted because it’s required by Mac OS X.
What can I do to get them back.

Please don't type in block capitals, they are harder to read and it feels like you're shouting at the reader.
Try re-start the Phone and if that fails try reset the phone.

HT4623 I update my new iphone with the data of my old iphone. Now every email is post twice. Can someone tell me how to correct that from happening?

I purchase a new iphone. I backed up my old iphone and moved the data to my new iphone. My new iphone shows my emails twice every time a new email comes up. How can I correct this issue?

Just to make sure - You're saying you had backed up your iPhone 4. When you plug in the 3GS, and try to "restore" the data from the iPhone 4 backup onto the 3GS, you get that error? Check to see if the iOS version is up-to-date, and hopefully it isn't. It might also be because your iPhone 4 wasn't, and is causing some sort of problem.
Good luck!

TS3988 My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

If you can see the iCloud contacts in Outlook, you can copy them back to your PC by selecting all the contacts (click one, then press Control-A), then drag and drop the selected contacts to Contacts under My Contacts on the left sidebar of Outlook.
If you want to copy your calendar back to Outlook, select your iCloud calendar on the left sidebar of Outlook, switch to the list view (select View from the ribbon, then click Change View>List), select your events (click on a single event, then press Control-A), then control drag and drop them to Calendar under My Calendars on the left sidebar.
Then you can sign out of iCloud on the iCloud control panel and your local copies will still be there. If you want to add your iCloud email account back to iCloud, you can do this with these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.

I sync my purchase from store to ipod now all my music and games are gone why did this happen and how doi get them back?

i sync my purchases to my ipod now all my music is gone and my games are gone too how can i get them back?

You most likely synced your iPod to a different iTunes then you previously synced it with. You won't be able to get all of your music back unfortunately unless you had it backed up.
Sorry!

Ok, I had a glitch, forced to restart, and lost my train of thought.
Reinstalling iTunes should fix the major issue that might have gone wrong, perhaps your explaination points will disappear and everything will be peachy again.
But if they don't, you can open the XML file in iTunes Folder using a Text edit program to see what the common pathname is to the iTunes Music folder or where your content is located.
If you moved the itunes folder, it needs to go back.
I can't download iTunes to my Vista virtual machine to test it out right now because iTunes is down, so I can't verify the pathname, perhaps your issue and the iTunes being down are related somehow?
You don't want to import all your music again, but it's a option, but you lose all your playlists, that's what I'm trying to recover.
If oyu don't have a whole lot of playlists, then simply select all the explaimation point music and delete, select File from the menu and import your itunes folder again.

HT1926 I was loading an update to my i-Tunes for my computer and got an error message and now I can not open my computer itunes and may have lost all the content. What do I do?

I got a request from apple to update my itunes and while uploading the update, the program gave an error message and now I can not open my itunes and fear that all my music etc is gone? what do I do to correct this problem?

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.

I restored my ipod after backing it up but now all my music and apps that are in itunes on the computer will not sync

i restored my ipod after backing it up but now all my music and apps that are in itunes on the computer will not sync across

Did you restore the iPod on this computer?
What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Does iTunes see the iPod?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

I had to get my phone replaced, I did back it up. However when I went to sync my itunes to my phone, now ALL my music is all of the sudden not able to be found. As you can imagine I'm quite ******. Anyone know anything of this?

I also updated my itunes a couple days ago when i backed up my phone - could it have been that?

music is apart of a back up. however if you did not transferyour purchases before doing the back up you will have to re download them. to do so sign into itunes, on the right hand side under quick links you will see purchased. click on it and go to the music tab. all of your music will be there you will see a cloud next to them with an arrow pointing down that is where you download them there may also be an option to download all. you can do the same for any apps that you may have purchased also. after they have downloaded plug your device in and sync them back to the device. hope this helps
