How do i transfer i-tunes to new computer?? This may seem like a stupid question to most, but I got a new computer, how do I transfer my songs to the new computer (from i-tunes) or can I do this?

Great Queston! My Wife gave me an Ipod for Christmas, I have around 1,000 cd's, I've almost loaded all of them on my computer. My Ipod is less than half full, my computer is maxed! I want to load more!

If I get a new ipod can I sync both my old and new using my itunes library and itunes and keep all the material on both units?

Yes David, you can. You can also make it so only certain playlists go to each ipod. I sync 3 different ipods form my itunes, all have different songs.

I had the same problem and then I found irepo. It only costs about $15 and works like a charm.

You've probably already figured it out....nevertheless. You can't transfer your music from i-tunes to your new computer. You have to transfer the music files from your old computer to new one. Then you can launch i-tunes in your new computer and transfer the music from the computer into i-tunes. Depending on how you set up the preferences in i-tunes, you can program it to look for music files and then it will do it automatically. Good luck, if you haven't done it already.

There's this program called Music Rescue. It might be just for Mac, but the free version lets you rip songs and videos off of your iPod onto your computer. But there's a catch, every 50 songs you have to press OK to continue to rip the songs off. But you can put a stapler on your enter key and walk away.

If you're talking about from one drive to another. Copy works. No need for special tools. But, consider exporting your important playlists to the XML format (under File maybe on windows? not sure). that way when you move things you can re-import them and not lose anything.There is a technote on Apple's site about moving windows itunes files around.(trimmed because it's huge) http://tr.im/m4AkMore info there if you search for (moving iTunes files on Windows computers)Also, before you do the copy, be sure to deregister the old PC. It's under the Advanced menu I think. Otherwise it'll take up one of your 5 registrations for any DRM music you still have. If you're talking about from one drive to another. Copy works.

yes it would not import to iTunes - I had to look for songs under recent downloads then drag to iTunes and if your cassette was old and warped it will sound like that warped - and for the price it was not worth but maybe 20 bucks and that is what I sold it for a week after I got it.

My husband had downloaded cds on the computer and my son was able to transfer those among other music to his ipod. So i would say yes if your tech savvy!!

There is a way to transfer your songs from the old computer to your new computer. I did this successfully a few months ago. I am fairly technically inept, but I was able to do it following Apple's instructions (see link at end of this post). It was a little bit of an ordeal, as I had to use my iPod as an external hard disk to move all my stuff over. However, if you follow the instructions from Apple's help link, you should be able to do it too. Good luck! http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1329

I've never understood those services... sure they can put the music on your iPod for you, but what happens when you have to restore your iPod and you don't have all of that music back-up in iTunes on your computer. Do you have to pay someone to do it all over again?

So this means whatever music I have on my compute I just have to transfer to Itunes? Not to bad....I can do that!!

I just bought my first apple product and talked to the sales person about that very thing. From what I understand you can only use itunes downloads on apple product. However, if you can make CDs from your itune files you can turn around and load them on your computer and put them on an MP3. I have every CD I every bought on my computer and put them all on my MP3. However, I can not recommend buying this product because mine never worked right. I can't turn up the volume enough to hear it well through headphones or speakers. I have bought one of these brand new and they are a good product but this one is reconditioned and it must not have been done right. :/

There are a couple of ways to do that, the easiest being to "authorize" your laptop to play your iTunes library (you can authorize up to 5 devices) and use the iCloud if you don't want to download the songs onto your laptop hard drive. You can also use google and Amazon's clouds to store files. Otherwise, you can "share" your library or us "Air Play."

I'm using aiff mac files and some standard iTunes files and have no problem but, idid find it challenging to import files. if found it easier to drop and drag files to a pre added named folder. i love the ability to hear high quality music file. its worth the hassle to me. you can hear things that you could not conventionally. i never liked low grade mp3 files. sounds terrible. for me its worth it to revisit old tunes at this qua lit. might even get the x5 for more navigation control. hope you find your answer and this response was useful to anyone. good luck.

Yes, you can transfer from an Apple computer. I use a MaBook Pro and have transferred music files to the HAPZ1-ES.

You should be able to drag and drop or copy the music files from your computer, into your itunes library, as long as you are using the same computer for your itunes library that you have your music files saved on.

You have to convert your songs to mp3. Files from ITunes who'll come out in that .ma4 and are only compatible with Apple. You can get a number of free converters online to switch your songs to .mp3

I used iTunes and it was easy for me. You should be able to just load the cds you want to listen to onto iTunes and then drag them over to the shuffle (within iTunes).

Yes, you do. Once it is entered into iTunes, it stays. Sometimes iTunes will even add the album art, but not if the songs are not already in their library.
