Transferring Music from Iphone to Computer ??

HI,
I HAVE BROUGHT NEW COMPUTER AND WHEN I CONNECT MY IPHONE TO NEW AND TRY TO UPLOAD ADDITIONAL MUSIC IT AS TO TICK MANAGE MY MUSIC MANNUALLY,
BUT IF I DO THT ALL MY OLD MUSIC COLLECTION ON MY PHONE WILL GET ERASED
SO HOW TO ADD AND TICK MANAGE MY MUSIC MANUALLY WITHOUT GETTING OLD MUSIC ON MY IPHONE DELETED.

First, stop typing in all caps.  It is considered SHOUTING and is perceived as rude, which may explain why such a simple question has gone unanswered for as long as it has.
You cannot use an iPhone to transfer music to another computer.  You have to add the music collection to the new computer the same way you did to the old computer.  Any iTunes purchases are still available via your Apple ID.  But any music added from other sources (such as CDs) have to be transferred to the new computer using another method, not the iPhone.

  • Transferring music from Iphone to Computer problems

    I am really not sure where to ask this.
    I am transferring my music from my iphone to my computer because it seems a lot of my songs on my computer have disappeared over the last few years. There is a folder for the band, but the music is all gone. My phone has all of it. So to make it easy I got Sharepod to transfer the music. It has fixed some of the problem, but there is still about 4 gigs of music on my phone, that does not transfer over. I know that sharepod could be the problem (even tho I don't know how the music disappeared in the first place). Does anyone have any kind of answers, or a better method to transfer my music. My backup hdd recently failed so the iphone is my only option.
    I am truely sorry for asking here, but I am running out of places to ask.
    Ty for any help in advance.

    Music should never disappear from an iTunes library unless you are having HDD problems. So I would start by resolving that problem.
    Was the music all downloaded from iTunes, or does it come from multiple sources? If it is all iTunes you can restore it to your computer by connecting the phone and choosing "Transfer purchases" from the iTunes File menu. If it is from multiple sources then you need an iPhone file browser. I am not familiar with Sharepod, so I don't know if it is the problem or not. I have heard good things about TouchCopy.

  • HT1296 Need help transferring music from iPhone to computer

    My computer crashed when I was trying to make backups of everything on it and I wasn't able to backup my music. But now that my computer is fixed how do I get music from my iPhone back onto my computer? Any suggestions. And all my music wasn't purchased through iTunes.

    For non-iTunes purchased music you'll have to use a third-party tool. Google for "iphone music copy" for options. For iTunes purchased content just choose "Transfer purchases..." from the File menu in iTunes.

  • Transferring music from iPhone to computer/iTunes

    hi there,
    my computer recently caught a virus and had to be rebooted meaning everything was removed from it. I had to reinstall iTunes but all my music was gone. I still have my music on my iphone but I don't want to download anymore incase it deletes what I have remaining on my phone. Is there anything I can do to put all of my music back onto itunes without having to download it all again?
    thankyou

    The user tip should help you extract everything that is on the iPhone and listed in the Music app, whether it came from the iTunes Store or not.
    It is usually possible to remove viruses from computers without going nuclear on the hard drive. Unless the user data has been encrypted the hard drive can be attached to another uninfected computer and all user data copied off to safe storage. Keeping a backup of your data makes even that effort unnecessary.

  • Transferring music from iphone to pc

    Purchased/Downloaded music from itunes to iphone - how can I sync / upload music to PC to back up?

    PaulCB
    Saw your post about transferring music from iPhone. I guess I am a total dweeb; I cannot understand Apple's instructions.
    I have two identical PCs. Have same version of iTunes on each. iPhone 3GS with 4.01 OS. I cannot figure out how to transfer the 5400 songs on my iPhone into my iTunes library without erasing the 2500 songs (different titles which came from a Dead Dell) that are already there. Any advice would be super appreciated.

    Best way to transfer mu music from Iphone to computer.

    Make sure you phone is logged into the Apple ID you used to purchase this music in Settings>Store.  If it isn't, tap the ID shown, sign out, then sign back in with the ID you used.  You should then be able to see your purchased music on your phone in iTunes>Purchased>Music.  Also be sure you computer is auhorized for this ID in iTunes>Store>Authorize this computer.

    How do I download music from iphone to computer/itunes

    Wjosten ... sorry to push in to this discussion ... but I have a related music question ... and thought you might be able to answer.
    I know iOS does not enable audio files to be attached to text messages.  I assume this is to prevent illegal sharing of songs.  But who is actually saying 'no.'   Is it the music owners (studios and publishers) who fear they will lose control of copyrighted songs (a la Napster)?  Or is it Apple protecting the iTunes business.  Or both.  I wouldn't blame either ... they are just protecting their IP.  I'm just curious.  I wonder if the music companies suddenly decided to allow some kind of music file sharing via text messages ... would Apple (and Google) go along and enable such sharing on smartphones and devices ??

    You don't.  The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  the only exception is itunes purchases.
    The iphone is not a backup device.

  • Music from iphone to computer

    Hi there, I have synced my iphone to my computer. Bookmarks, contacts, and ical from phone to computer. Worked great..... But.... how do I get my music, movies and photos from my iphone to the computer? When I try to sync this it tells me it will erase my library from my iphone. I don't want to lose this info.

    Only music that has been purchased from the iTunes store (be it on your comp or on the iPhone) can be transfered from iPhone to computer.
    Its under the file > transfer purchases.

  • Transferring music from Iphone to a new installed Itunes library

    I have recently had my lap top repaired and my Itunes has had to be erased, I have reinstalled Itunes and my Itunis es music library is now empty and I did not make a back up, is there anyway I can transfer all the music from Iphone back in to my music library if  I sync it with Itunes library it is going to wipe all the music on my phone, thanks

    iTunes includes an option to import iTunes content from an iPod, iPad, or iPhone that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store.
    First you need to re-authorize your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so.
    With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File > Import Purchases From > the name of your iPhone.

  • Transferring music from ipad to computer to put on a cd

    I bought music from itunes on my ipad, I want to transfer it to my computer so I can put it on a cd to play in my truck. I tried to select and drag over and copy and past it wont allow me. Please tell me that I can do this, Ive purchased alot of music on my ipad and sure would hope I would be able to transfer to my pc. Thanks for any help

    I had the same trouble getting music from iPhone 4 to the computer. However, there is a method in doing this that involves authorizing the computer. Go to the "Store" tab in iTunes and look for "Authorize Computer". After you do authorize it, got ot the "File" tab and click on "Transfer Purchases". Although I've only done this once, this method should work.

  • How to transfer music from iphone to computer?

    My computer crashed and after repairing all my itunes backup files are gone.There’re almost 500 songs in it…But I still have those music on my iphone, so can I transfer the music back to computer from my iphone?

    Pop into iTunes and choose File –> New Playlist.Now you can just drag and drop music from your iTunes library (in iTunes, needless to say) into this new playlist. When you're ready, you'll see a bunch of music happily ensconced in the playlist.Cool. Now click on the "Music" tab and you'll see that you can select "sync playlist". Do that, then select the new iPhone sync playlist you've created.Set things up just as I have shown and that's all there is to it. Now click "Sync" in iTunes and it'll synchronize your playlist with the iPhone music library and next time you click on that ole' "iPod" button on the iPhone, your selections from you music library will be present.You may also follow this guideHow to Transfer Music from iPhone to Computer

    Penny wise and pound foolish.
    boggles my mind that I can't simply transfer MY files from MY phone and MY PC. /END RANT
    Boggles my mind that people don't have a backup and then on top of that, they place blame everywhere but themselves when it comes back to bite them.
    $25 so I can have access to MY files is just stupid.
    If I have data on two sources (phone and PC), why should I need a 3rd source for backup? There is NO reason why my phone can't act as a backup for PC and vice versa. The old iPods could do this. My old Android phone could do this!
    I backup all my important work and personal files, but having 12 gigs of music saved on 3 different sources (plus the CD originals) is just unnecessary.
    Please don't make excuses for Apple not supporting this.
    But how about going back to solving the problem... is there freeware available or a workaround so that I and the original poster can copy music from phone to PC???
    Thanks to those who are trying to help.

  • Transferring Music from iPhone to new computer

    Hello,
    The computer I normally sync with iTunes has crashed suddenly with an I/O error on the hard disk.  This has left the computer completely useless and now I am trying to manage the music on my iPhone with my work laptop, (Windows PC) but I am only able to transfer my purcahsed songs from iTunes off my phone to the work laptop music library, and I can't sync without losing all my other content on the iPhone that is in my original library on the crashed laptop.
    With my original computer out of commission there must be some way of creating a new library on my second computer and managing my music from the iPhone.  My only copy of the music files is on the iPhone.  How do I move these to the new laptop?

    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.
