Transfer new purchases to different computer

I been using ITunes on my desk top at work. I purchased some songs from the ITunes store. Now, the computer does not have ability to burn CDs. I want to take my new purchases as well as the entire library and use my IPOD shuffle in sync with my home laptop. I have been able to transfer all my library ...except my purchases. How can I do that.

If you were to go to the top of this page and click "Support" then type "itunes transfer purchases" or similar you would get several articles from Apple on how this could be done.
Here is one such article:

  • Automatically transfer new purchases...

    Two computers running Snow Leopard, fully updated to 10.6.1 and iTunes 9. Both on the same WLAN (Time Capsule) and home sharing is configured using the same iTunes Account. Home sharing is working fine. Under "Settings" I checked to "Automatically transfer new purchases" and then proceeded to purchase the new Jay-Z album on my iMac. I see my MBP scrolling "Checking for new purchases" in iTunes, but then nothing downloads? Anyone have any idea whats going on?

    Same situation here. I set the two computers up for Home Sharing, but when I purchased 4 songs from the iTunes store, form one computer, nothing showed up on the other computer.
    What gives? Same account used on both machines, home sharing enabled, and transfer new music checked in Settings.
    P.S. Actually it does work. The songs just do not appear under Purchased on the other library but in the Music library itself.

  • Is there anyway to restore an iphone to new from a different computer and then use a backup from the cloud?

    Is there anyway to restore an iphone to new from a different computer and then use a backup from the cloud? At&t said that they unlocked the phone but that it needs to be reset in itunes and retored for it to work. However, I do not have access to my computer as I am overseas and need to put a new sim card in. Anyone had this problem and know a way to go around this?

    If you have an backup on iCloud. You can restore via iTunes (on every computer) or via your iPhone itself.
    And yes, you can restore the backup via iCloud.
    To set iPhone to new do this: Settings > General > Reset > Erase all data and Reset all Settings.
    It take a while. But after this, you can restore backup via iCloud.

  • TS1347 just recently my iphone is not syncing calendar to my macbook.  It has worked all along until about a week ago.  It does transfer new items from the computer to the iphone but not from the iphone to the computer.

    just recently my iphone is not syncing calendar to my macbook.  It has worked all along until about a week ago.  It does transfer new items from the computer to the iphone but not from the iphone to the computer.

    Plug you iPhone into your computer, select the iPhone, select the photos tab. Now check (not uncheck) the sync photos from... Select the folder where the photo came from, click apply then sync, now uncheck the sync photos box, click apply, it will ask you if you want to remove the photos click remove, it will not delete other photos exept the ones in the folder that was synced. Then click sync and the photos will be removed

  • Home Share - Automatically Transfer New Purchases

    Does Home Share's  Automatically Transfer New Purchases option transfer 'new' content, or just itunes purchases?
    I have a few Mac, one RIP a CD with songs, do the other's get the music?

    home sharing copies purchases from the iTunes store only !
    music you add yourself must be transferred manually.

  • How do I transfer music purchases on one computer to a different computer?

    I purchased A LOT of music on my laptop and want to get it over to my desktop. What is the best way to do this?

    iTunes for Mac: How to copy purchases between computers
    Once you have the tracks on some removable medium, you can mount that on your new computer and then just drag the content to the iTunes window. Make sure that the option to "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" is set in the iTunes -> Advanced -> General preferences before you do. Alternatively, you can use the Add To Library command and select each item (or folder of items).
    If you have items that you purchased from the iTunes Store on your old system and you won't be using that system once you move the content, don't forget to deauthorize the system before you dispose of it.

  • How can I transfer Photoshop to a different computer?

    as I am a uni student I new photoshop, I purchased it but since then I've upgraded my computer my question is can I transfer my photoshop to new computer?

    Yes.  If you have a subscription you can either leave it working on the older machine as a backup copy (You are allowed to have two working installations) or you can sign out of the old machine and install and sign in on the new machine.

  • Laptop crashed and how to transfer music from ipod back to laptop and won't transfer new purchases to ipod?

    My laptop crashed about 2 days ago. I got it fixed and had to reinstall it. I had to reinstall itunes all over again. How do I transfer all my songs from my ipod including the ones that were from hardcopies and by hardcopies I mean cds I bought in real life and is on a disc. All of the songs are still on my ipod so how do I upload all of the songs and videos (purchases, music/songs from hardcopies/cds uploaded not bought from itunes, etc...?) How would I upload all of that back to itunes on my laptop? Another question is for some reason when I hook up my ipod to my laptop, I recently bought 23 songs about a day ago and it won't upload those purchases to my ipod, is it because I have all the hardcopies and downloads on my ipod that the itunes library doesnt have? Also, how would I sync my newest purchases to my ipod efficiently without deleting any of the hardcopies I uploaded before my laptop crashed?

    phonefans is a spammer, ignore his posts.
    If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.

  • Unable to play/transfer new purchases

    I just purchased 4 songs. 2 downloaded properly to my lap top and ipod and the other 2 have an exclamation point after the numbered song under my purchases. Also, I can not drag them to my ipod nor can I play them on my computer. When I try to play them on the laptop, a window pops up and says"original file could not be found, would you like to locate it?" Yes, I click, then a bunch of numbers come up and I have no idea what to do after that. Help!! I am VERY frustrated!!!

    See if you can find the file on your hard drive with these directions.

  • Purchased tunes - different computer though

    Hi all,
    I've purchased songs on itunes on one computer, but need to download them to another. I don't have access to computer A anymore. But, since I purchased these tunes legitimately, I figure I should have access to them somehow using iTunes - but I can't figure out how.
    Can anyone help me out with this?
    Thanks!
    Simon

    You need to have access to the computer the songs are on or access to a back up otherwise basically your songs are lost. The policy on lost songs is that you have to pay to download them again:
    "Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage."
    You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download however they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on any of the links on this page you'll find a space at the bottom to email your query: iTMS Customer Service

  • Adding a New Song on Different Computer, without losing current library

    I would like to add a single song to my Ipod and am currently using a computer that is not my usual computer. I normally have my Ipod (a 120 gb classic) set to automatically synch on my Itunes on my usual computer. If I were to download Itunes on this computer to add a single song to my Ipod here, what is the way to make sure that it does not automatically synch to this computer & thus delete/lose my current library? I know there is a way to just make a few changes/additions without having it automatically synch it all & am looking for the answer as to how to do that.
    Thank you in advance for any help.

    Hello BlueCaroline,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    The only way to sync content from multiple computers is to set your iPod up to "manually manage music and videos" by enabling this option from under your iPod's Summary tab in iTunes. However, you can only enable this option on the original computer you set the iPod up with. Otherwise the option will be grayed out.
    Other than that, there is no other way to add the single song without erasing your currently library on your iPod. A possible, but not a recommended solution in any way, is to copy all the content from your iPod to the second computer, then erase and restore via iTunes, then sync all the old and new content to the iPod. Just an option, because other than that there are none. Sorry.

  • I recently purchased music on my iPhone (4) and am now trying to transfer those purchases onto my computer. However, when I try to play the music it says my computer isn't authorized to play it. I have already authorized this computer, what do I do?

    I tried unauthorizing then reauthorizing it but the same thing happened.

    Oh, and I'm not sure how relevant or necessary this information is, but the iTunes store on my computer doesn't work either, which led me to buy the music on my phone. I try to open it and the top says "Accessing iTunes Store..." and never gets past like a little bit less than half. I looked at some other discussions but none of the suggested solutions worked.

  • Help, New itunes on different computer with old ipod.

    Hi
    My old computers hard drive crashed completely ,and all my music was from CD's that i have sold now. So is there anyway off getting my music off my ipod touch 2gn on to my new netbook and without my ipod being wiped clean?

    Where is your backup copy of all important info/music/pics/docs? This is basic.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, then you could try ( at your risk) a 3rd party program to get the music off of the ipod ( Apple does not support this).
