Whats the best way to transfer iTunes library from pc to macbook pro?

i have already used the migration assistant and my itunes library is missing alot of music

Several options.
Just use a portable device.  Copy to drive and then copy to drive.  Then disconnect and connect to the Mac.  Just drag songs to library.
If on same network you can do the copy command from the Mac directly by going to your pc drive from the Mac.
You choice

    i recently got a macbook pro but all of my music is on my imac. how do i transfer the music?

    Click on the Music item in the Finder's sidebar. You'll see an iTunes folder inside. Move this to the same location on the other computer via a network, an external drive, or FireWire Target Disk mode as desired.

    Since I believe you can't create a Photo Album (Book) in Apperature, what is the best way to transfer my pictures from my Apperature Library to iPhoto (in order to create my book) without loosing any picture quality ?

    Why do you think that? You can create printed Books in Aperture with similar themes as in iPhoto, and with more options to create custom themes on your own.
    See this page - http://www.apple.com/aperture/what-is.html - scroll down to see the example books.
    But if you prefer the iPhoto themes and layout, you can open your Aperture library in iPhoto, if you have both the current version of iPhoto and Aperture. Simply use the command "File > Open Library in iPhoto" and you can create your book in iPhoto.
    And switch back to Aperture by using the command "File > Open Library in  Aperture".

    Get a third drive if needed, open the Time Machine pane of System Preferences, set it not to exclude that drive, and drag the files to it. If you're moving an iTunes or iPhoto library, launch the application with the Option key held down and choose the moved library.

    You can share songs, but if there is DRM protection on the song, it will not play on the other device unless you also transfer the rights to the other device. You are getting into the problem of music piracy.

  • What is the best way to transfer my date from my old iMac to my new iMac?

    what is the best way to transfer my date from my old iMac to my new iMac? I don't have a time capsule, so I cannot use time machine.
    thanks

    Your best bet by far is to use Setup Assistant when the new Mac first starts up to transfer directly from the old one. 
    It's similar to Migration Assistant, but doing it that way will avoid having an extra user account.
    Either way, you can connect them via FireWire, Thunderbolt, or your network, but avoid wireless if at all possible.  You can connect both to your netwrork via Ethernet, or put a single cable between the two. 
    See Using Setup Assistant on Mountain Lion or Lion for details.

  • HT1449 I've transferred my itunes library from PC to Macbook pro running latest itunes and now it will not recognize my iPods (nano 4 and 5th Gen an Ipod touch).  All music is there and playable but will not recognize any devices

    I've transferred my itunes library from PC to Macbook pro running latest itunes and now it will not recognize my iPods (nano 4 and 5th Gen an Ipod touch).  All music is there and playable but will not recognize any devices. Help please

    The ipod is not a backup/storage device.
    You need to copy everything from your old computer to your new one.
    The Apple store will do this for you,  you can call apple support and they will help you, you can use google.

  • What is the Best Way to Transfer iTunes to Another Computer?

    Hi everyone!
    Okay, I was wondering what the best way is to transfer an iTunes library. I have my current iTunes library on Windows XP on a PC and I wish to move the entire thing to my new, Windows Vista Laptop. The iTunes version on the PC is 7.6 (I do not wish to update if at all possible)and I have not downloaded iTunes 8 to the Laptop, which has no idea what an iPod or iTunes is.
    You guys have always helped me in the past, so I hope to hear from you soon. Thanks in advance!

    Awww, com'on you guys. It's been 4 or 5 days, and no one has gotten back to me...
    Can anyone give me a link that has any info? Thanks again.

  • What's the best way to transfer iTunes from my mac to my android

    I have tried everything and researched until I am exhausted. I tried android file transfer. My device cannot be recognized by my mac. I tried Kies and cannot figure out how to install it on my phone although I have it on my Mac. I transferred music via google play and it messed up my library and din't transfer playlists. What's the best way? How can I get my Mac to recognize my device and please don't day change USB stings as I cannot find anything resembling that.

    Copy the entire itunes folder.

  • What is the best way to move iTunes library to a different hard drive?

    I have a MacBook Pro and recently removed my optical drive and replaced it with an internal hard drive so that I can have more storage. My iTunes library is on the original hard drive. I am getting close to running out of space on the original hard drive and would like to move my library to the new internal hard drive. What is the best way to do this? Thanks.

    A re-iteration of what I posted earlier... If you let iTunes manage your music for you then copy the whole iTunes folder and everything it contains to the other drive.  Hold down the option key at the same time as starting iTunes. It will present you with a window, one of the options being to open a different iTunes library.  Navigate to the iTunes folder on the other drive and let it open the library.itl file in the folder there.  In all likelihood it should open it with no problem and you will not see any difference between when you had it on your first internal drive.  If you get info on a track and look at summary you will see it is now referencing media on the other drive.
    Message was edited by: Limnos to reflect using second internal drive.
