My iTunes is suddenly saying both my iPod & iPhone are synced with another computer, which they have not been.

I recently lost all of the music from my laptop's hard drive, and therefore from i-Tunes. I still have all of my music on my iPhone (3GS) (and a smaller version on my iPod Touch (3)), however when I try to sync them iTunes says the devices are synced with another computer & the only options I have is to erase the iPhone/iPod & sync with the very little music that has been able to be recovered back into iTunes, or to transfer the purchases. I have checked the computer is authorised for my iTunes account, and have transferred the purchases back. I really don't want to have to reload my CDs on when they are all on other devices.
Does anyone know why iTunes is suddenly not recognising devices it did previously, and how I get it to recognise them again? And most importantly, how I can transfer the music on my iPhone/iPod back into the laptop's iTunes?

The music was accidentally deleted as I was cleaning up my SafeSync account (like a Cloud) & I unwittingly deleted My Documents & My Music from my hard drive as I did so - these are the only files that were affected. So no catastrophic issue apart from me not knowing what I'm doing.
And IT guy performed a recovery for me but was only able to retrieve about 10% of my documents and only 45 songs of the 1700 or so I had. There is no up to date back up of my computer - trust me I've learnt a lesson there.
Since then iTunes doesn't recognise my devices as being synced to that computer, but there is no other computer for them to be synced to so I don't understand how this happened or how to fix it. I understand that my devices aren't back ups, but it seems stupid to lose the 1700 songs I have on my iPhone. I have transferred the purchases, but the majority of them are songs I've loaded from CDs & obviously it would be a very time consuming process to try to reload all of them - obviously something I would like to avoid if possible.

How do I add an ipad to my itunes account which was previously associated with another account and user?

how do I add an ipad to devices in my itunes account which was previously associated with another account?

Just sign into your own ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store. Sign out of the old ID and sign into your ID. I get the feeling though, that there is more to what you are trying to do or want to do and I'm not understanding or you are not explaining completely.
If this is a previously owned iPad, it should have been erased before you got possession of it.

I had to format my HD, now iTunes says my iPOD is sync'd with another computer. How do I get my iPOD's music back in to the library and sync it with the computer again?

I had to format my computers hard drive. Now the iTunes thinks my iPOD is sync'd with another computer. How do I get re-sync the iPOD and computer and get my songs on the iPOD back in to the iTunes library. Thanks!

Can't tell you exactly, as it can be used to facilitate piracy and Apple blocks this sort of thing from occuring (except for itunes purchased music)
But you can find out what your looking for at iLounge, i'd suggest that method for "mixed" music from different sources, that way you get it all back.
Next time, hit the iTunes menu and backup your library to disks, only takes a few minutes and a few DVD-R's.
Good Luck

How do you get songs off of itouch when it has been sycned with another computer

How do you get songs off an ipod touch to a new computer when the ipod touch has been synced with another computer. The other computer died. Thanks!

You don't. Unless they were purchased from the iTunes store, then you can go to File > Transfer purchases. Or you can right click (ctrl click if you're on a Mac) on the name of the device in the source list in iTunes and then choose Transfer purchases.

HT1727 All of the music on my ipod touch was synced with another computer that I no longer have. Will I be able to transfer songs and videos that I didn't purchase?

My ipod touch was synced with another computer that I no longer have. Will I be able to tranfer my music and videos to my new conputer without losing the items I didn't purchase from itunes.

Move or copy all the media from the old computer or the backup of the old computer to the new computer.
iDevices are not backup devices.

Initially stating No authorization required using Adobe. When I try to change it so I can transfer downloaded books by my Nook e-reader it I get an error message stating the Adobe user name and password is associated with another computer. What gives?

When I set up Adobe reader on my computer to be able to download books from a library and then transfer to my Nook e-reader, I initially stating No authorization required using Adobe.

This is pretty surprising and wierd that even Reader 10.1.1 is crashing on your system. It works pefectly for me.
Would it be possible for you to get the crash dump, and upload it, so that I can have a look at the same.
Download PROCDUMP from <http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/dd996900.aspx> and extract it to a folder, say, c:\temp\procdump.exe
Open cmd prompt and type "cd c:\temp".
Launch the browser and open the PDF.
Open task manager, sort processed by name. Two AcroRd32.exe instances should have been launched. Note the PID (a small integer like 5588) corresponding to the AcroRd32.exe with the higher memory usage; this is the process that must be crashing. Note this PID.
On the cmd window, type "procdump -e -ma 5588 c:\temp\01.dmp" (replace 5588 with the actual PID of the process noted in Step 4). Procdump will now wait for the aoolication to crash. If it throws a EULA, accept it.
Perform your steps to cause the crash.
Procdump will have created a dump file at "c:\temp\01.dmp". Zip it up (since it will be 100s of MBs otherwise) and share with me.
Thanks in advance for all your help

My friend wants to put music on their iPhone 5C but they do not have a laptop with iTunes that hasn't been associated with another iPhone/iPod. Is there any way they can skip linking their phone to the iTunes and JUST get the music?

The iPhone has not been associated with any iTunes as I was a little scard to connect it to mine as I do not want all my friend's apps on my phone. Also, we use different apple IDs so would we be able to have two apple IDs associated with one computer?
SO CONFUSED.
Please help!

Your friend can get a new Apple Id for themselves, and create a different account on one of the laptops. Then put all their music in a separate iTunes library, and sync the phone to that particular library.
This will keep there music separate from your library and their brother's library.
Just make another User on your computer for your friend to store their music in.

Itunes says it is already associated with another account on ipad2 when i only have one account

I am trying to get my ipad2 to download purchases previously made from itunes. If i go to settings store and slide the automatic downloads for music to on, it says that this device is associated with another account and cannot be changed for 90 days, i only have one itunes account and these settings are saved underneath. Any ideas?

I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

My library says my Ipod has been synced with another library, but it hasn't.

My Itunes library is saying that my Ipod isn't synced with that library and I have to erase and sync it. I haven't synced my Ipod to another library. I already erased and synced it again once, and now it's doing the same thing (and it deleted all the playlists I created on my library, but they're still on my Ipod). I don't want to have to erase and sync again, and lose my playlists. Why is it doing that?

Help! I bought my first song from itunes store. I synced it to my lap top. Works fine. Than I tried to sync it with my iPod. I got a message saying that my iPod is associated with another computer (my pc). So it would only sync it if I deleted my lib

My laptop would not sync to my iPad because the iPad is hosted on my desktop. So it said to me to delete my library on my desktop. I do not want to do that as I have all my music on my desktop. I did home sharing. But when I tried to sync my iPod to my desktop. It froze up. I had to shut down everything to recover. Now I do not want to fire up iTunes on my desktop as it will freeze up again. Anyone with some ideas to fix this?
Thanks

You can only play 720p video.
Download the 720p or standard def version.

But when I sync it with my ipod, it says that 'the iPod has been synced with another library' and then asks if iTunes should wipe out the data in my ipod in order to sync with the library.

help! I do not want to lose everything

Sam.. I still got that message too. I went ahead and sync'd anyways.
Make sure you have it all backed up... transfer your purchases to itunes (done in itunes).. then there is not much else you can do but hit the sync button.
For me.. my thoughts were... I could probaby download any magazines again.. recreate any documents if I had to.. I have mostly business related stuff and art work I created from the drawing apps on my I pad.. purhaps not as big an investment as you.. however.. in the end.. I didn't lose anything. it all transfered for me to the new library..
not much else I can say... I found a blog where another person was having the same issue...pretty much they recommended the same steps that I followed..
here is another thread in at a different site you can look at too.. it seems like everyone is using the same process..they mention ipad in here too...

ITunes shuts down when syncing iTouch with another computer

Decided to use a different computer(laptop) running windows. Have moved library via hard drive transfer. Went to connect iTouch- couldn't restore it, but genius bar got it working. Probable antivirus conflict. Now after updating software for both iTunes and iTouch and consolidating library , can't get sync to work. I backed up iTouch before attempting sync and it did import contacts etc. But now it won't sync music library. When I manually move an album to the device , now iTunes shuts down and becomes unresponsive after the first 3 or 4 seconds of the tranfer. Very frustrating.
