? transfer podcasts ect onto computer after database wiped out

My computer crashed and everything on my database has been wiped out. I am trying to download all my videos and podcasts onto my itunes library which seems to have a couple of songs I do not recognise. It allows for some purchased items to be downloaded but does not download all my stuff from my ipod onto the computer even though I have authorised the computer to accept the data ?

Assuming that all the music that is on your iPod was purchased from iTunes you can navigate to the iTunes store from iTunes and download your music again by clicking on the new 'Purchased' button. If you have music ripped from CD's it will not show up here. Alternatively you can click iTunes > Preferences (shortcut Command + ,) and then navigate to the second tab that says Sharring. If you enable sharring of your iTunes library and then click 'Ok' to confirm that you're using this for personal use and not pirating music, then you will get the 'Home Sharing' option on the left hand sidebar of iTunes. From there you can sign in to home sharing with the same Apple ID that is signed in to the iPod and drag 'n' drop your music from the iPod touch to your iTunes library.

Transfer Catalog to new computer after I've deleted photos on old

I still use Photoshop Elements 5.0 since it does the basic things I need, although I could upgrade if necessary. My problem is that I want to transfer the CATALOG from my old XP computer to my new Win7 but I mistakenly deleted the photos (not the catalog) from my XP already! The photos are on my new computer but most of the catalog is not. Can I back up the catalog only, restore it to my new computer, and have it reconnect to the photos on my new computer? I have already seen the help articles on “Use Backup, Restore to move catalog” and “Common catalog upgrade issues”, but I don’t want to backup and restore the catalog and get everything messed up! BTW, although all the photos are on my new computer, the Win7 catalog references only August 2010 and May 2011-July 2012; the XP catalog contains references from July 2007-April 2011 (August 2010 is on both).

Hi again, Ken. Thanks for all your help with this issue. I wanted to test my various ideas before responding to your latest message.
Since I had a conglomeration of different images and captions on each computer, I defined what was where for each folder. All photos were on my new computer, some captioned many not, but most were not in a PSE catalog. Some but not all photos were on my old computer after I loaded photos from an incomplete flash drive copy, either captioned or not. I was afraid to do any backup and restores in case I messed things up further.
Since I had more complete files on my new computer, I decided to work with it instead of backing up and restoring from my old. I decided to start with my new computer to “Get Photos” from folders not in a catalog; that includes most of my photos. I tested these depending on whether or not they were captioned and whether or not they were already in the catalog. I created a matrix to determine how to handle each “type” of folder: HD only, HD captioned, PSE only, PSE captioned, and various combinations. Don’t try to parse this! I tested each type of folder to determine what I had to do for each and made notes so I can complete the job as time permits.
Soon I will perform a full backup. When I have “completed” the restoration task, I should be able to do an incremental backup and have everything on a 16GB flash drive, right?
Yes, complicated, but I have learned a LOT about working with Photoshop Elements, and your comments have helped me with that. So, thanks for your attention to my problem. I still have a bunch of work to do, but I think I know what I’m doing now. At this point I can delete all photos and catalogs from my old computer (a 2005 Dell Inspiron 6000) and give it to a friend whose computer is even older (a 1998 or older computer that is barely operational).
Again, thanks for your help!

HT1329 My hard drive died. Can I plug my ipod into the new computer and transfer my files or will they be wiped out?

My computer hard drive fried on Friday. They are not able to retrieve the data. Have i lost everything that was not a download?
Can i plug in my iPod into the new computer (once I install iTunes and authorize the computer) and move my files to the new system from the iPod, or will my iPod be wiped out?
I believe I need to set up manual update, rather than automatic to prevent this, but other than that, I am a bit lost.
Thank you.

Transfer library to new computer after old one crashed

My old PC crashed and the data partition has completely been erased so now all of my music only exists in my iPod. I have a new laptop and would like to transfer my library to the new computer, however I'm worried that it may just erase the music if I just plug it into the new computer. The current setting is on auto-synch and not manual. Can I just install iTunes onto my new computer, set it to manual, and plug in the iPod? Suggestions?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions, Tim!
I'll answer your question in just a minute but before doing so I'd like to say that I hope you take this as an opportunity to learn a very important lesson: Back up your iTunes library as soon as you can after resolving this situation because right now you are only one glitch of your iPod away from losing your music entirely.
Many people come to the Discussions having lost their music in just such situations and, believe me, it's not a happy time for anyone.
If you place any importance on your playlists and the data they depend on, you will want to include your iTunes Library files in your back-up regimen as well.
Anyways, that's the lecture. The answer to your problem should be found in this post:

Good Luck! But once your music is back on your computer, remember:
Your music is valuable - please back it up!

How to sync ipod touch to new computer itunes library after old itunes library computer crash without wiping out "library" on ipod touch

how to sync ipod touch to new computer itunes library after old itunes library lost in computer crash, without erasing ipod touch

Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

I can't manually transfer podcasts from another computer

The computer that I "sync" my ipod with is seriously on the fritz. I'm an NPR junkie, and downloaded podcasts to our other computer (we are a four computer family). These podcasts are free, so there should be no copyright issues. I have set the ipod to manually manage files, per instructions, but I still cannot copy some of the files to my ipod. The instructions are to drop and drag, but it is not working. Suggestions?

What do you mean access them?
Itunes store does not keep a copy on their server for you. You get ONE download. If you want that content on another authorized computer, then you have to put it there. It will not magically appear.

Woke up to a blue screen computer. Had to wipe everything off. Now cannot transfer my purchases to my iphone without wiping out my library on my phone. is this correct?

Restore that backup you made?
You should be able to recover the media with the tips in this post from forum regular Zevoneer but I'm not sure what the implications are for your application settings. You can probably transfer your purchases into a newly authorised library, backup the device, recover any other media using third party tools, then restore the device from the backup. That might switch the assocation of the device to the new machine but I couldn't say for sure.

After an update to Mt.Lion, my iWeb was GONE, leaving me with my website on my host, but all my iWeb information on my computer was totally wiped out. I was able to load iWeb again, but I will have to start all over rebuilding my site...any suggestions?

Has anyone else lost their entire iWeb information after upgrading to MT. Lion? I did manage to upload iWeb again, but it's like I've started all over with no data, so I will have to totally rebuild my site -if I ues iWeb-and upload the entier site again, and I have no guarantees that I won't lose it again.

Did you do a clean install of Mt. Lion, i.e. an erase and install? If you didn't do a clean instal check inside the User/Library/Applicatrion Support/iWeb folder to see if there's a file there named Domain.sites.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If you don't have a backup strategy then this would be a good time to start one. The simplest to start is to use Time Machine with an external HD that's at least 1.5 times the size of your boot drive.

How do I transfer to my new computer after my old computer crashed?

I spilled a glass of wine on my old computer and it crashed awhile back. I have a new computer and am wodering if I can move my account to the new computer without starting all over. I have it all on my IPOD but when I put it in the new computer it says it is gong to erase everything. I do not want to lose it all. Please help! Thank you!

It has alwys been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy of your old computer toput everything on the new one.

Download of music keeps saying error 10000, song corrupted but I already had this song on my iphone. Accidently took it off when i syncd new itunes onto my iphone and wiped out my iphone music organization etc.

Hi community,
I recently lost the computer i had my itunes on. I also recently got an iphone. Everything was perfect and set up but then I had to create a new itunes account on my Dell desktop. Anyway, when i created the account and connected my iphone i told me something about my iphone only having what was on my itunes on the computer. I thought that was fine because all of my music is my purchases. But i turns out that a whole chunk of my music wasn't there and my playlists got screwed up. Playlists fine but I went to download the music and every single one of 33 songs says, Cannot download file corrupted, error 10000. Is this a problem with my computer? These files were fine before i connected my iphone to this computer and itunes setup on it. And I have them on my iphone but can't figure out how to move them from recently added to a playlist for running etc. Thank you!

so i went ahead and did a restore from the new PC and then a restore from backup. looks like that fixed everything... a few playlists were messed up and so far as i can tell, maybe just a few minor issues.

I synced my iPhone to my husband's computer and it wiped out his iTunes account replacing his content with the content of my iTunes account. Any idea how to fix this?

I synced my iPhone to my husband's computer not knowing that it would wipe out his iTunes account and replace his content with mine. Obviously, not good. Any ideas on how to fix this??

Syncing an iphone should have no effect at all on the content of the computer.
Are you saying the the itunes library on the computer was effected?

Does ipad 2 retrieve notes when connected back to itunes after being wiped out?

I need to wipe out my ipad, but after doing so when I reconnect it to my itunes will it retrieve the notes and contacts?

Only if you restore the iPad from a backup .... And if the Notes and contacts are in the backup. So... Backup your iPad before you wipe it and then restore from the backup when you set it up again.

Any strategies to get up and running after Apple wiped out HD

Luckily I backed up my drive with Restrospect before my computer died and Apple replaced the HD and reinstalled 10.4. Now I have a brand new OS but want to get my things back the way they were.
Anyone have any strategies to minimize the downtime? Replace my entire "home" directory with the old one? Replace my Applications folder? How would I get my mail files back but in the new Mail client? I don't want to disrupt too much of what's on there already, just get back my old stuff.
I think Retrospect can wipe your drive and bring it back to the way it was, but I want to take advantage of this clean install. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

I think, first off, the Retrospects archives are a poor way to backup.. Make bootable clones from freeware Carbon Copy Cloner, and you can actually boot from the backup, and then clone back.
I am not certain how to specifically get back what you want from the Retrospect archive, Is it selected items? Is it the entire drive? You may want to install Retrospect on another machine, hook your up in Target Mode, and then either erase yours, and put back the Retrospect items (if it's the entire drive), or put back the selected items from the archive.

I have a macbook running 10.6.8 is there a way to transfer docs from that computer to iCloud

I have a macbook running 10.6.8 is there a way to transfer docs from that computer to iCloud with out using a third party app like dropbox?

Yes - if you have the iWorks apps or apps that support iCloud and if you have iCloud setup on the iPad correctly. You do by using Safari on the Mac.
If you have Pages on both devices - you can log into iCloud.com on the Mac. Sign in, and click on the iWorks icon in the browser window in Safari. Then click on Pages at the top in the next window. Then drag your Pages document from the Mac desktop onto the browser window and the document will be available in Pages on the iPad when you launch it.
