Syncing music bought on the touch to my computer

I've recently downloaded a few albums on the touch, but when i plug it into my computer the music doesn't sync. I have no way to get the albums from the touch to the computer. Anyway to fix this?

I have the same problem. The music I download to my iPod does not automatically sync to my MacBook Pro. Here's what works for me: In iTunes right click (or CTRL+click) on your iPod touch. Then click on "Transfer Purchases."

How do i get it back! i bought most of my music on itunes but i just dont have any idea where to go and whjat to do can any help me??
    Respond please!

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then see if you can redownload your past music purchases (those that are still in the store) via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you are not in a country where music can currently be re-downloaded, then have you not got it on your computer and/or on a backup ? If not then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    I have a problem. When I start to sync music to my iPod touch, you have to enter the password of your account. I downloaded the game from the general account, and do not always know the password. He writes that if I do not login, then the game will be erased. Previously, this was not. When starting to sync music, it did not touch my programs, and now because of this music can not be transferred to iPods. PANIC AT ME! HELP

    If they are Tunes purchased music you have to sing into the account that purchased them.
    Is this the iTunes library/computer you sync with? You can rally only "sync" with one iTunes library/computer.However, yo can manually manage music and videos among different libraries/computer. See the manual method of:

    You can only sync with one computer. I would backup to one computer and then restore from backup.

  • Itunes will not sync music to my ipod touch or iphone 3g. Passes all diagonostic tests. copies apps but not music

    itunes will not sync music to my ipod touch or iphone 3g. Passes all diagonostic tests. copies apps but not music. Any Ideas?

    just bought iphone 4 today from verizon and had the same problem. this is my 1st smartphone ever. apps all synced when i plugged it in to my computer except the music. this is what i did and it worked. plugged in phone to computer. then under the devices tab i clicked on the music tab. if you look to the bottom right of the itunes page there will be two tabs you can click on. one says settings and the other one says autofill. i clicked on the autofill and then it just started syncing. that was it. i'm not a tech guy by any means. just kinda of got lucky. i hope this helps you out. good luck!

  • I have just purchased 2 songs and I went to sync my Iphone 3G and I get an error 13019.. the iphone "my name" cannot be synced. I have tried.. removing voice memos (I have none) remove all music.. syncs fine.. if I choose to sync music I get the error

    I have just purchased 2 songs and I went to sync my Iphone 3G and I get an error 13019.. the iphone "my name" cannot be synced. I have tried.. removing voice memos (I have none) remove all music.. syncs fine.. if I choose to sync music I get the error help..
    I have tried everything and now I dont have one song in my Iphone since it doesnt want to sync music because I get this error...
    by the way I have tried this
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2830
    and I have tried restoring the iphone...

    I translated..
    El problema -> El itunes me dijo que habían como 12 canciones que tenían mejor calidad. yo decidí intercambiar las canciones que tienen mejor fidelidad en itunes.
    Itunes me pregunto si quería que ponga las canciones que iva a remplazar en “desk top” a lo cual yo respondí que si. El itunes hizo algo.. no puso las canciones viejas en el desk top pero cuando fui a sincronizar recibí el error 13019.
    La solución para los usuarios de Windows.. busca todas las canciones *.m4a que se han modificado en tu compu durante el día del incidente.. toma nota de los nombres de las canciones.
    En itunes busca estas canciones y deselecciona las canciones.. (con suerte veras que las canciones están seleccionadas dos veces.. deselecciona todas las canciones que fueron modificadas en ese día. Al final asegurase que tienes seleccionado la opción de solo sincronizar las canciones que están seleccionadas en tu lista.) y trata de sincronizar con itunes..

  • HT1296 How do I transfer music from my Ipod touch to my computer?

    I borrowed an Ipod touch from a friend to transfer his songs to my computer. but i've been unable to do that. everytime I try to sync Ipod with my Itunes, it warns me of replacing entire data (in Ipod) with data of my Itunes. How do I tranfer music from his Ipod touch to my computer without erasing any data from his device (ipod) ??
    please reply me in my email id: [email protected]

    If it is just the music you are after, then steps 2 & 3 have you covered. If you no longer have access to the computer you used to sync with then you may want all the information...
    iTunes is designed to sync devices to a single library. When you try to switch libraries you may lose some or all of the information curently stored on the device. To prevent this you should be able to:
    Backup the device to a new installation
    Transfer your purchases into an authorized library
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
    Restore the device from the backup
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
    When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

    If you do not have a back up of the crashed hard drive you can download an app to copy from the iPhone to iTunes on the new hard drive.
    I have used Pod2Mac.  There is also Pod2PC.
    There are numerous choices, some free, some payed.  Do a Google search.
