  • The computer that had my iTunes account on has broken, and was thrown away. All the media I bought are on my iPhone only - is there any way to re-open my iTunes on the new computer or to download them off my iPhone? Thanks!

    I'm worried that if I lose my iPhone all will be lost. Please help!

    Buy yourself a backup drive. Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer is structured around you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer. The exception is purchased content.

    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software unless you have an older model iPod. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • One of the computers that had our Itunes account on it crashed. We want to be able to add the account to our new computers and future computers but it shows that we have used 4 of 5 computers. Once we hit 5 are we out of luck or do they revolve?

    This is not how it works.
    You can only have a maximum of 5 computers Authorised at any one time.
    If you no longer have, or access to, the computer(s) you want to deauthorise,
    Log in to iTunes,  go to "view your account info" on the itunes store, deauthorise all five,
    (Please Note: this can only be done Once every 12 months)
    Then re-authorize your current Computer(s) one at a time.

  • I recently got the iPhone 4s, but my iPod has a lot of apps with a lot of data on them and don't want to start over. I already synced my iPhone from the computer that had all my apps from my iPod, how do i transfer the data over, the other apps did.

    I recently got the iPhone 4s, but my iPod has a lot of apps with a lot of data on them and don't want to start over. I already synced my iPhone from the computer that had all my apps from my iPod, how do i transfer the data over, the other apps did. But some reason the app Clash Of Clans did not. Thank you.

    If I wiped my phone I wouldn't have the contacts on my phone to send to my self.    I would need to take just the contacts from my back up. I would have to do this through iTunes and I don't see how I can just extract the contacts only from my back up. From what I can figure out it is all or nothing

  • My iPod is a nano from 2006 the computer that had my original iTunes ones long gone, is there away to load my iPod to a new iTunes. Each time I try it wants to erase my iPod? Help please

    I havean iPod nano "2006" model,the computer that had my original iTunes is long gone is there away to load my songs a from my iPod on to a new itune account? Each time itryitwants to rewrite my nano? Help!

    The "bar" at the bottom does not say anything about all of your songs being on the iPod.  It just shows you how much of its storage capacity is being used, based on what is on the iPod.
    If you see "On This iPod," that means the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible.  This is easier to describe with the sidebar visible, so from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. 
    Select the iPod in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  There is a bar of buttons near the top, starting with Summary.  Click on Music next to Summary.  This is the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
    Check the box for Sync Music.  You can choose to sync Entire music library, if (?) your iTunes music library fits on the iPod.  With this setting, your entire iTunes music library syncs to the iPod, and new songs get synced automatically.  A 7th gen iPod nano is 16GB, so your iTunes music library would have to be less than 16GB (not counting non-music content on the iPod).  Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  Then, select (checkmark) the playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres you want on the iPod from the lists below.  If you want newly added songs to sync to the iPod, they must be part of your selection.  For example, you can add them to a playlist that you have selected for syncing to the iPod.
    When you click Apply, the songs from your selection sync to the iPod.  Going forward, changes to your iTunes library (based on your settings on the iPod's Music screen) sync automatically to the iPod, the next time it is connected (or when you click Sync).

    You create the playlist on the other computer which may require moving or copying of the media from the first computer to the second computer.

  • Can you download all of your iTunes match account onto your computer?  I screwed up my iPod that had the entire library on it and the computer that had the hard copies of the files on it blew a hard drive.  I need to get the files back from iTunes Match.

    Can you recover/download all of your iTunes Match account onto your computer?  I synced the iPod that I had the entire library on to a new computer and lost almost all of my music.  The old computer that had the library on it blew a hard drive and I can't sync the iPod back to the old computer.  Everything is in iTunes Match, but can I load it onto my computer, so I can get it back on my classic iPod?

    If you had iTunes Match before all this happened, yes. Just log in, activate iTM and download the music. If you did not have iTunes Match prior to these incidents, no, it can not help you.
    You should also be doing regular backups of your personal data to an extnal HDD. If you had a backup hue could simply restore it.

  • My question is the my daughter has an ipod touch with alot of music and games on it, but the computer that had itunes in it and all the apps and music is now gone. How can I transfer all her games and music her new computer without loosing her stuff?

    My daughter has an ipod touch with alot of games and music on it. The computer it was synced to is forever gone and on her new computer some of the games dont show up along with her music. She is worried if she connects it to her new computer all will be lost. Is there anyway for this to not happen? The ipod is on its last life due to a cracked screen, and as for the games she has spent money on them such as smurf village and others. When i looked at game center on my phone about less than half of that game showed up. Is there anyway to fix these things before its to late and eveything is gone forever?
    THANK YOU.

  • I got an iPhone today. The computer that had my iPod music on it is broken. So I am using a new computer. I have both my iPod and iPhone plugged into this computer. How do I make it so my iPod music stays on my iTunes so I can update my iPhone? HELP!

    My computer broke and so I am using a new one to update the music on my iPhone I got today. I can't get my music from my iPod touch (that's plugged in at the same time) to stay on this iTunes. I have already authorized it and everything. I just need to be able to unplug my iPod and plug in my iPhone to get my stinkin music on there. Please help! I'm begging!

    The ipod is not a backup device. The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  Without syncing:File>transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your backup copy of your  old computer to your new one.

  • Both my iPod and the laptop that had my iTunes library on it were stolen, is there a way to retrieve my former iTunes library?

    A few months ago my iPod and laptop were stolen. Is there a way to retrieve my old iTunes library or a portion of my old iTunes songs even though I do not the iPod or the laptop?
    Any and all help is welcome and needed.
    Thanks!

    Use the backup to put back what you have... something is better than nothing.
    Any purchases that are still missing can be downloaded from iTunes.
    Downloading past purchases from iTunes
    If the iTunesLibrary.itl file was not a part of the backup, your library is gone.  Playlists will need to be recreated, playcounts are gone.

    Most Windows users don't.
    Purchase an external hard drive and use the backup software that comes with it to backup files from your computer.
    Buy TouchCopy and install it on your new computer, connect your old iPod and transfer your songs to your computer.

I'm trying to sync and update with my new laptop but I am getting an error meassage that if I continue all purchases, apps etc will be deleted..... How to I do this without losing all my stuff??? Help I have no clue about technology!!!!!

    The official way to do it is to restore the iTunes library that was on your old computer to your new computer using the backup of your whole system you regularly update.  Then you are syncing the phone with the same old library.
