    how can i sync music from my phone onto my new computer without losing it all? my old computer's hard drive crashed so it is unusable.

    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.

    The following link has 2 methods for importing photos to a Mac (not counting Photo Stream). Are you using iPhoto or Image Capture? If you follow the steps in the link for that method, what exactly happens that doesn't allow the upload? iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

  • How do I sync music from ipod touch to computer.

    I have 5.5GB of music on my ipod touch that I copied from my own cd's to an old computer that are now on my ipod touch.  I want to sync the music from my ipod touch to my computer.  itunes lists all the music but a message comes up when I try to listen to it on my computer saying "this song cannot be used because the original file cannot be found.
    I have all the music on my ipod touch and it all works and I don't want to lose it if I sync.  It says when I sync that all music on my ipod touch will be lost, it will only sync with the music on the computer.  HELP.

  • Why cant i sync music from more then one computer without having to erase the music already on my ipod??

    I have music on my ipod and i want to add more music from a diffrent computer but everytime i try it tells me i have to erase all the music already on my ipod. ihave tried to do multiple things and it does not seem to work.

    Yes, you can use the one that's not broken. It just doesn't have the same stuff as your iPod. So when you sync the content will be erased. If you have a backup, then you can save your iPod content. Anyway, those songs, apps and books you purchased from iTunes can be re-download free of charge.

    Did you authorize your new computer in iTunes under the Store menu?

  • Can I sync music from my phone to my laptop?

    My laptop broke and i lost all the songs on my itunes, however, i still have the songs on my iphone. Is there a way I can put my songs from my iphone bacak onto my computer. This is very frustrating.

    This is one of the many reasons that it has always been basic to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( music/pics/docs/files/etc.).
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have filed to do so ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases:
    Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
    Otherwise, the music sync is one way - computer to iphone.

  • How to sync music from iPhone onto new computer

    I had my iPhone synced to my old computer. I connected it to my new computer and it won't allow me to put any of my old music onto iTunes without deleting it all first. How can I keep my old music and put it onto my new iTunes?

    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

  • Restore from backup gives a cryptic error - help please!

    Hi,
    I have a iPhone Classic (pre 3G), with Software v 2.0
    I wanted to get back some files that an application created (recorder) which got erased on upgrading the application!
    So, I did a restore from backup operation via iTumes v 7.7
    My phone is restored to factory settings, and when proceeding to the next step with the screen
    "Restore from backup of..", I simply get an error after lot of disk churn
    "iTunes could not restore the iPhone "xxx" because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored.
    I am very disappointed lately with a series of issues with Leopard and now with the iPhone.
    Thank you in advance.
    Anand

    I had the same exact problem. I decided to quit iTunes (praying it would work upon reopening). I got the same error message on the first 5 backups I tried. Eventually a back-up from almost 2 months ago worked. I lost a lot of info but was thankful it worked.
    Oh wait! Well I'll be darned. It DIDN'T work. As soon as it was "done" restoring, it brought me to the same "Set Up Your iPhone" screen. Only to go through the same thing again.
    Bottom line: 2.0 Software/7.0 iTunes are completely screwed up. I'm thoroughly ****** off.

  • How do I sync music from iphone to itunes?

    I lost all titles from itunes when I upgraded to the new itunes. Apple allowed me to download them again (thanks Apple). However, there is music on my phone from CDs uploaded prior to the loss of the titles. They exist on my phone but not in the pc. How do I sync music from the phone to the pc?  I miss the drag/drop method!

    You would have to use 3rd party programs. Try youtube, they would give you tutorials and the name of the program. There was one program I used but it deleted after I got all my music out my iphone.
