Why can't sync itunes library from old ipod touch to new ipad mini using the same computer?

I have an ipod touch with songs from itunes, downloaded cd's and limewire.  Just bought an ipad mini and I can only sync the music that was purchased from itunes and the cd's.  How can I get the limewire songs to transfer?

When your device is connected try File > ~Device > Transfer purchases from device
Ctrl B tp show the top menu

    Can I transfer my itunes library from my ipod to my new imac?  If so how is it done?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Of course. The best would be to transfer the iTunes library from your old Mac or PC to the new Mac, so you will keep everything and you won't have to use any third-party app.
    Anyway, if you don't have access to the old PC or Mac, you can transfer songs from the iPod to your Mac. If you purchased all the songs on the iTunes Store, just open iTunes, connect the iPod and transfer the songs. If you are using an iPod touch, you will lose everything if you sync it with iTunes on the new iMac.
    Another method is to use an app like Senuti to transfer the songs to iTunes, being a safer way to transfer them if you aren't sure that you will lose your songs

  • My mac hard drive crashed. Can I restore my iTunes library from my iPod to my new hard drive?

    My mac hard drive crashed, and had to be replaced. Can I restore my iTunes library from my iPod to my new hard drive? About 2500 songs, some from iTunes store, most from other online sources or my own CDs.

    To restore non-purchased music on the iTunes Store to iTunes from the iPod, you need a third-party application as Senuti > http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/ You can use others, but this has worked perfectly for me

  • How can I transfer itunes library from old pc to new imac?

    I just got a new iMac and am trying to transfer iTunes library from old PC (barely running) to new iMac.  I tried through Home Sharing but couldn't find how to sync.  Is it necessary to get Firewire?  Or should I sync it from my iPad?  I'd like to avoid the middleman.  Thanks!

  • Moving my iTunes library from old hard drive to new laptop

    I apologize if this has been discussed before, but, just today I punched my laptop screen and shattered it (the laptop has been asking for it lately, it's been acting up and I was planning on buying a new one anyhow). I removed the hard drive and it's perfectly fine, no damage. I bought a new laptop a few hours after breaking the old one and I was wondering how, if possible, I can move my iTunes library from my old hard drive to my new laptop. I read about a hard drive case that comes with a USB cable and one of those things that plugs into my hard drive that I can then plug into my new laptop and my old hard drive will show up.
    Sorry, it was a bit of a mouthful. Anything anyone can suggest is greatly appreciated.

    Thank Chris I have just done that. How do I now get them in to Itunes ?
    If you simply copy the iTUnes folder to /Music/ and launch iTUnes, everythign will be there. No need to import anything.
    This will work the same with iPhoto.
    Simply copy the Photo library to /Pictures/ folder and launch iPhoto.

  • HT4527 how to move my itunes library from my Ipod to a NEW PC

    My Laptop had to be reformatted and as a result I lost access to Itunes.  I was not able to save any of my backups nor my iTunes library.
    I am trying to sync my iPod and iPhone to my NEWLY formatted hard drive and iTunes wants to WIPE my devices.
    Is there a way to "PUSH" the  iTunes library from my iPod To my laptop?
    Thanks,
    Willie J. Sanders, Jr.

    I thought I just explained this.
    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases
    You can transfer itunes purchases form your ipod to your computer:  Open itunes, connect ipod, click File Transfer Purchases
    Did you fail to maintain a backup copy of your computer?
    You may be able to purchase a program to get the other music

  • Trying to upload music to my itunes library from my ipod touch.

    i have windows 7,when i plug in other devices i can see the things on that device and upload them to my itunes library.but when i plug in the touch it doesnt show up under my computer.its an older version of ipod touch.it shows up in the itunes library,but not under my windows librarys

    What do you mean by other devices? To access the files on the iPod from you computer other than from syncing and transferring iTunes purchases from iPod to computer you need a third-party program. Some of those programs are discussed here:

  • Is there any way to transfer an entire library from an ipod to a new laptop (not just the purchases)?

    My laptop was stolen that had my itunes installed and was synced with my ipod classic. I now have a new laptop. Is there any way I can transfer ALL the music from my ipod to itunes on the new laptop, not just the purchases? I don't have access to all the CD's etc that I originally downloaded onto my ipod.

  • My new Ipad mini has the same name as my old Ipad. Now Itunes will not recognize either Ipad. Do I need to reset both or just the new one? How do I get them to have different names?

    My new Ipad named itself the same as my old Ipad. Now neither will be recognized in Itunes. Should I reset new Ipad to factory settings and start over? How do I name it what I want?

    To rename them go to Settings>General>About>Name.
    Don't start all over again. There are solutions for devices that are not being seen in iTunes. Try those suggestions first.

  • Why can't I sync my iTunes library from my MacBook Pro to my iPad Mini?

    I have just updated my MacBook Pro with the latest iTunes, something I swore I would never do. But I had to do it in order to sync my iTunes library with my new iPad Mini. Unfortunately, after waiting 23 minutes for the software update, I STILL can't sync my music! The only songs I can see on my iPad Mini are songs I've purchased from the iTunes Store...all two of them. The remaining hundreds of songs simply don't show up. C'mon Apple, the reason I use a Mac platform is because it just always works, unlike MicroSucks. Is this what we can expect in a post-Jobs world...?

    -_- this is a user to user forum.
    Click on your ipad in the upper right- this takes you to your summary page.
    click on music tab at the top.
    UNcheck all music and apply/sync.
    When that is done, REcheck everything, and sync again. This usually works.
