Synching iTouch with new PC

Does anyone know of an easy way to sync an iTouch with a new computer? My default laptop has crashed and I'm unable to sync new music onto my new pc.
In the past with my older iPod, I was able to use a third party application to extract my music from the pod and restore it to my new machine. This app does not support the new iTouch.
Please help!

I did check the sites that were provided, but does anyone know of a Free software that allows you to do this. Maybe something that is supported by Apple?
If they (Apple) made one you can be sure they would have tried to sell it to you already.
You want it for free? How much is your music worth to you?

  • Need help re-synching iPods with new computer and getting iTunes to...

    Need help re-synching iPods with new computer and getting iTunes to recognize our iPods (it doesn't even recognize them when they're plugged in).
    Hubby wiped my harddrive for me, so now I need to get everything back in proper places. I'm using windows XP and installed iTunes once again (I believe it's version 8). I also installed all of my iTunes songs. Now I need to know where to go from here. We have 3 iPods and I need to get them all synched once again. I know how to create different libraries for each of us, but I can't figure out how to get our songs back into our iTunes libraries. When I open iTunes and plug in an iPod, iTunes doesn't even show that an iPod is plugged in.
    What do I do now to get each of our iPods synched with our own libraries?
    TIA
    Brandy

    Thanks Zevoneer. The "Restart ipod service" worked and itunes is now recognizing my ipod! Hooray!
    Okay, now how do I synch all of our ipods with our individual libraries (I don't want all of my kids' songs and vice versa)? We each have hundreds of songs on our ipods that we don't want to lose.
    Thanks again!

  • Synching ipod with new computer and lost music

    We just got a new computer and I finally got to hook up my ipod. I tried moving my songs from the ipod into itunes and they wouldn't transfer so now I am synching the ipod with the computer; however, I seem to have lost the original songs that I had on my ipod before I downloaded the new songs. Did I really lose my songs or are they there? If they are there, how do I find them?

    If you syncronised your iPod with a new and different library it will have erased your original songs. You could have a look at this post for possible solutions but there's no real guarantee you'll get anything back: Buegie - Recovering Songs

  • Can't synch contacts with new ipad mini

    I can't synch my contacts to my new ipad mini

  • Synching Apps with new iTunes Library

    My ongoing saga with iTunes continues - I've managed to get it running again by deleting the preference files and creating a new library.  Of course, now it doesn't list any of my songs, movies, tv shows, or apps.
    As a first step I'm trying to sync my iPhone without losing $100 worth of apps.  I copied the "Mobile Applications" folder from the old iTunes library to the new iTunes library, but that has no affect.  If I try to right-click on the iPhone in iTunes and select "Transfer Purchases", iTunes immediately crashes.
    Any other suggestions on how I can sync my iPhone with the new iTunes library without deleting all my apps?

    That actually started to work and then around the 5th app iTunes crashed.
    Since my earlier posts I've once again removed and reinstalled iTunes and related programs, and even deleted all the Apple Computer appdata folders so this would supposedly be an ENTIRELY clean install.  And still it doesn't work....
    Does Apple offer any tech support for iTunes beyond useless e-mails to articles I've already tried?  They like to claim they have such great tech support on their hardware, but my various gadgets are useless without iTunes and they seem to offer no support for that.

  • Update iTouch with new computer?

    I have a new computer (Mac Mini).  When I connect my iTouch and update for the first time will I loose all my ebooks and other information?

    Yes if you do nothing beforehand. Move/copy your entire iTunes library to your new computer. Also move/copy the iPod backup file.  After the stuff in on the computer, restore the iPod from the backup you just moved/copied.
    The backup file is here:
    iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP,  Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.
    If you are moving from a Mac to a Mac, use the Migration Assistant in the Utilities folder under Applications.

  • Sync existing ITOUCH with New PC

    I currently have a large libary on my Itouch...i had this dervice assigned to a laptop that has crashed beyond recovery....i purchased a new laptop installed itunes etc etc...now i want to add my old libary to my new PC ...can i do this

    Yes.
    Move all of your content to the new computer, then sync your ipod.
    You don't need to restore your ipod. You can just plug it in and sync it to the new computer.
    You should really always maintain a backup of your important data as hard drives/computers do not always announce their pending failure.
    I hope it goes smoothly for you.
    If you enter at least one unique calendar and contact entry on the new computer, then you should get the option to merge the data when you sync. This way you won't lose that info.

  • Synching itouch with novell groupwise

    Our university uses Novell groupwise email. We are contemplating purchasing itouch for our nursing students but wonder about whether we will be able to use groupwise. any advice?

    I have set up my Novell Groupwise account at two separate Universities (I study at one, work at the other) and both work fine with the Touch mail program - no need to use the web interface. You may need some help from your IT department to get port numbers or server addresses but the Touch does auto-detect quite well.
    To sync calendars and things, you will need to have outlook installed on your computer and set up to access your Groupwise server - easy enough - as the Touch syncs with Outlook. Interesting thing is that you don't have to every USE Outlook, just make sure it is set up to access data from your GroupWise account.
    I wish Apple would include direct GroupWise conduit!

  • 4th gen iTouch will not fully synch with new computer

    When I originally bought my iTouch, I synched it with a computer that has since died due to a hard drive crash.  I have connected it to my new laptop, but it will not allow a full/true synch because it senses that this computer is not the original one.  Is there a way to fix or remedy this?  I would like to update my iTouch to the newest iOS, but I'm afraid I will lose songs that are on my iTouch and not my iTunes on the computer.  Installing the new iOS completely wipes the device, so before I do it, I need to be able to synch completely.

    If you have music from other sources on your phone (e.g. copied from CDs) and you don't have them on a backup, then there are some program listed half-way down this page which might be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • HT1848 MY wife has an Iphone 4  and I have a 5. To date we haev used one apple is/account to manage music purchases. Recently we bought a Mac and created a new apple account for her. How do I synched her phone with new apple account?

    MY wife has an Iphone 4  and I have a 5. To date we have used one apple account to manage music purchases/library. I updated ny phone to the new OS version and all her texting is showing up on my phone.  I understand if i create an apple account for her I will not see her texts. Recently we bought a Mac and created a new apple account for her. How do I synched her phone with new apple account and get access to the music library under my account on the new MAC laptop  before I update her phone to the new OS?
    Going forward if I purchase music under my apple id and want her to have it on her device, how can I acheive that?

    You can continue to share an Apple ID for purchases.
    Sign her in to her new account here:
    Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (Keep on Phone if you want to transfer contacts, calendars, etc...) then sign in with her new ID
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID > Sign out then in with new
    Settings > FaceTime > Apple ID > Sign out then in with new
    Use the same Apple ID here:
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID

  • I was trying to sync my itouch with my new mac, and some songs won't download because they are not authorized for this computer. But even after my computer was authorized they still won't sync. How do I fix this?

    I was trying to sync my itouch with my new mac, and some songs won't download because they are not authorized for this computer. But even after my computer was authorized they still won't sync. How do I fix this?

    I have the same problem. It is only with tv shows and only with programs I have downloaded after the software update.
    Apple support sent me the above link too....but it doesn't solve the problem...my computer is authorized and the content is in my library and will play on my Mac air, but it will not sync the tv shows, it keeps saying my computer isn't authorized for it.
    No answers here, but you are definitely not alone with this issue.
