Tags not importing with photos to new computer

Help! I just transferred 10,000 photos... all tagged beautifully in my previous computer..that are no longer tagged. I installed Elements 6 and imported the photos along with tags according the screen, but once the import is done less than 100 of the photos are actually tagged. I also have a newer version of elements that I want to use on this computer... but thought I should try to make the original version work before upgrading. What do I need to do to get the tags back?

Backup & restore is the correct procedure from within Organizer. See this link for more information:

IPod Touch will not sync with iTunes on new computer

I recently got a new computer (Dell to HP, which shouldn't make any difference). I downloaded iTunes on the new computer and was able to get all my music, tv shows, and movies onto my new computer using a Flash Drive.
I have contacted iTunes help twice now and they have basically given me nothing to work with. I have all the updated software (2.2.1 or so), and I have restore my iPod Touch about 3 times because I was told this would work.
When I try to sync my iPod Touch, it tells me that it could not sync because certain songs "could not be found". I have every single one of my purchases and stuff from CDs on my iTunes and I just want this fixed so I can use my iPod Touch again.
My iPod is now empty except for a few applications and pictures that, for some reason, were able to get past all that and can be synced. If anyone has had this problem, please please please help me. I am getting very close to ripping my hair out with frustration and/or throwing my iPod Touch out of the window.

unless you do TWO (and I mean BOTH) things... 1) put the audio files in the same path as on the old laptop... and 2) copied over (or exported) library info, you will have to do something else... and all it is, is to tell the itunes to "add folder".
Once you add the folder, just consolidate it.
When I bought my new laptop, I had copied my music library and the extra account information. I restored the account info, but put my music in a different location (on a completely separate drive, which has saved me a few times since). So I had to change the preferences to point to the correct location, and it picked up ALL the songs.
I've since done a recovery on my new laptop a few times... and unfortunately I didn't save a copy of the account info (my old laptop has "glitched" out since, and I have no access to that info either). So even though my music is still there, I have to tell iTunes to "add folder", even though I changed the preferences to use that same folder as its library.

I have the 2nd Gen iPad and imported my photos from my computer to my iPad awhile back. Now I'd like to sync it to new MacBook Pro and my albums are not showing up? Anyone know how to fix this?

You'll have to transfer them from the pc to the mac.

If i factory reset my ipod touch(5th gen), can i reset it as the option 'set up as new ipod', and then i can just go into the app store/itunes store and restore my music and apps and not icloud with photos and ect?

if i factory reset my ipod touch(5th gen), can i reset it to the option 'set up as a new ipod', and then i can just go into the app store/itunes store and log into my apple ID so i can just restore my music and apps and not icloud with photos, contacts, ect. and then later i can add contacts that i need/want instead of them restoring them from icloud?
The reason i asked this question is because i have been wondering this a lot ever since i got an exchange on this ipod (and ive only had it for a few weeks now) because my last ipod had a lot of problems. so after i restored my ipod with my computer/itunes, i downloaded apps that i wanted, and then when i went to the storage to see how much storage was left, it said 0 bytes. i was freaking out because i didnt know how that could be, i mean, cause like, that is impossible when i just 'purchased' it, that the space was full but i looked and all my pictures were on this ipod and i already put them on my computer so i dont need them anymore thats why i wanna reset it now so there is nothing on it so i can have more space for stuff to do and download on it.
it is updated to iOS 8 but that happened when i purchased it, so i didnt have a choice to update it even though i didnt want to update to iOS 8...
and i hope you understand my problem..
i would REALLY REALLY appreciate it if someone could tell me a solution to my problem!!! thank you so much!

Hey Sierra, You can do just what you have stated. My question, what is your "other"? If it is over 1.5 GB you most likely have corrupt files. Doing a Restore to New, Factory restore should correct it. Just make sure you make a full backup of all information on your iPod to your computer before you restore, so you don't lose your stuff, contacts, videos, pictures, non-iTunes music, etc, use the cable and connect with your computer. Then, via cable, connect to your computer, run the Restore to new, don't use your backup. Treat this iPod as if it was your first one ever. When restore is done, set up and add what info you wish to install on this iPod. The music apps etc you purchased should be on your computer, if not you should be able to retrieve purchased apps and music from iTunes. Any music, videos, apps not purchased from iTunes will be lost to you if you do not save them to your computer or the cloud first. When your done, make a current Backup and you should good to go. Hope this helps. Good luck. Cheers.

Copy the entire iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.

"homemade" tones not liked by iTunes on new computer

I am not sure which forum this needs to go in, but since it is a question regarding ringtones downloaded to iTunes, I figured I would start here.
So anyway, here’s my situation (Hang with me here - I am big on details, especially when it comes to help forums; my problem isn’t exactly
stated until paragraphs 3-6): I downloaded 4 ringtones to my iTunes; One of them I purchased, and three others are sounds from DVDs that I used the QuickVoice2Text Pro app on my iPhone to record (I have an iPhone 5 version 6.1.3), upload to my computer using the QuickVoice PC software, and then did some tweaking through another software program in order to download them into iTunes and make them into ringtones. Since doing that, the Dell Inspiron with a Windows 7 OS that I had originally downloaded the 4 ringtones onto cracked its screen. Therefore, since I cannot live without my computer (even though the computer itself was not damaged, but it is 2 ½ years old and could crash at any moment), I went out and bought a new Lenovo with a Windows 8.1 OS.
After installing iTunes version 11.3.0.54 for Windows on my new computer, I was able to transfer all of my music over from my old computer to my new one using my iPod Touch (Plus some help from my dad). While I was syncing my music, I also ended up synced all of the apps from both my iPhone and iPod touch (because of the settings on theiTunes on my Dell, my iPod Touch automatically downloaded all of the apps that I had backed up from both devices), which meant that my new iTunes had record that I had purchased the QV2TP app, which In turn meant that I could download the QVPC software onto my new computer (The software is downloaded by emailing a certain address, they check to make sure that you have the app installed and if so, they give you a link to install QVPC on windows and another to install it on mac).
This is where my problem comes in: When I tried backing up my phone to my new computer, it transferred the ringtones over: The one that I purchased
is fine, but the three that I had made all have a circle located to the left of the “check” box with an exclamation point in the middle. When I try and play them,
I keep getting a pop-up that says “The Ringtone ‘……..’ could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?” The
first couple times, I clicked “yes,” and got nowhere. At first, I presumed that because I had initially uploaded the files to my Dell that they were on its hard
drive and somehow were not brought over to my new computer (likely due to some security reason or whatnot); however, when I tried rerecording and re-uploading the tones-to-be, the QVPC software rejected them all and deleted them from its “server.”
I have tried checking the box under “Tones” when my phone is connected and selected, but then it asks me if I want to delete all of my current tones off of my phone and sync over the ones that I have selected in my iTunes library under “Tones”, to which I have to say ‘No”. Yes, I do want to keep the one that I have selected; however, No, I do not want to delete the others that I already have on my phone that I created from my dell. I would like to create another ringtone from YouTube (which is not a problem); but am afraid that if I sync my tones to my phone that it will erase the other three that I made from DVD snippets that are NOT on YouTube.
Is there any way that I can play my video in iTunes, record the snippets that I want from there, and then mess around with them? If not, do you know of any other way that I can get these tones back working into my iTunes?
Again, sorry for all of the miscellaneous details at the beginning – just like to be thorough when explaining my situation to another.

Did you import the tracks into iTunes again or replace the entire iTunes folder?
Check out this Apple article -> iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
It provides the best way to move your music from one computer to another. It suggests consolidating the library, copying it to the thumb drive, moving the empty or smaller library to another folder, then copying the consolidated library from the thumb drive to the Music folder on the new computer.
If you have two librarys with music and stuff in them, you'll want to import the smaller library into the larger one by dragging and dropping stuff onto the iTunes icon or going to File > Import.

Since my last software update, my iphoto 11 will not import any photos from any source. The circle just spins...when I go to force quit, it says iphoto not responding. Backed up iphoto library, uninstalled and reinstalled iphoto. Still not working. Help!

Since my last software update, my iphoto 11 will not import any photos from any source. The circle just spins...when I go to force quit, it says iphoto not responding. Backed up iphoto library, uninstalled and reinstalled iphoto. Still not working. Help!

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

TS2972 How do you move your music within itunes from your regular library to the homeshares library so that you can import it to your new computer?

How do you move your music within itunes from your regular library to the homeshares library so that you can import it to your new computer?

You do not have to move it as such. Here are the steps to setup HomeSharing
1) Ctrl B to turn on the top menu
2) File > Home Sharing > Create Home Share enter your apple id and password, click create
3) repeat steps 1 and 2 for the other computer and create home share using the same apple id and password
On your new machine if you have turned on the left hand sidebar the Shared Library should be about halfway down like this.
Select the songs you want and click import at the bottom right. If you want all songs then I would select one song nad Ctrl A to select all
Finally if you have a lot of songs to transfer Switch off the wifi on the old computer. Leave the wifi on the new one. Connect with an ehternet network cable. The copying speed is way faster.
Click import and grab a coffee

Lightroom will not import my photos. It did up to a week ago. I have changed cards and cameras (both worked two weeks ago). I can import the photos to Picasa and iPhoto

Lightroom will not import my photos. It did up to a week ago. I have changed cards and cameras (both worked two weeks ago). I can import the photos to Picasa and iPhoto. I get the following error message:
Some import operations were not performed.
The following files were not imported because they could not be read [followed by a list of the files I wanted to import]
Thumbnails show up. LR just will not import them.
Any idea what is going wrong?

If the Import button is not clickable, that means that Lightroom thinks you have no new photos to import (one possible reason is that they are duplicates)
So, you need to figure out why Lightroom thinks that. The way I would do this is to search your Library module for at least one of the photos, by file name. To do this, you would follow all 4 of these steps in sequence:
Click on All Photographs in the Catalog Panel on the left of the Library Module
Turn off all Filters (Ctrl-L or Cmd-L once or twice)
Expand all stacks: Photo->Stacking->Expand All Stacks
Search for one or more of the photos using the Filter Bar (press backslash), search by File Name

How do I import old photos into new iPhoto library?

I have a new macbook pro running iphoto 11. I am trying to import my photos onto the new computer from my old computer, running iphoto 8. I mounted the old computer as a hard disk, but when I go to import the photos into new iphoto library on the new computer, the old iphoto library is "grayed" out under the users/pictures/iphoto location.
How do I transfer the photos?

To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.

Hi,
I had my iphone stolen a few weeks ago which had quite a lot of music on that I had downloaded from itunes via my phone but had not synced with itunes on my computer.
Is there any way to access the music now or is it lost? Thanks x

By any chance, did you have the Find My iPhone app installed prior to it being stolen?
Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
Hopefully you had your iTunes purchases backed up to an external source such as an external drive or CD's?

Hi Dalegu219,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iTunes library is on an external hard drive, but iTunes is not recognizing the library, first make sure the right library is selected.
You can use these steps to make sure iTunes is opening the library on your external drive:
If iTunes is running, quit iTunes.
If you're using Windows, hold down the Shift key and from the Start menu, choose All Programs > iTunes > iTunes.
If you're using a Mac, open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option key.
You should see one of these screens:
Pick Choose Library and locate the library on your external hard drive.
From:
iTunes: How to open an alternate iTunes Library file or create a new one - Apple Support
If the right library is selected, but you do not see your songs, try re-creating the library using the instructions found here:
iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists - Apple Support
Best Regards,
Jeremy
