How to transfer itunes to a new computer?

Question

My laptop had a virus and recently went to the computer shop. Just got it back, and they apparently deleted all of my music, and itunes. Do I just re-install itunes and hook up my ipod? I have heard that doing so erases all of your music and data from your ipod. (And I have over 900 songs, which I would prefer to keep.) Help? I also have a home computer which I am considering transfering itunes to.

Answer 1

Hello, as long as your songs are still on your iPod, you can get them onto your computer and iTunes easily.



The most convenient and secure way is to use an iPod-to-computer transfer program to help you, like this handy one called Tansee iPod Transfer

Firstly install this program on your computer. When you plug your iPod to the computer, this program will instantly display all songs and videos on the iPod.You simply select what you wish to transfer and click "Copy" button. Done. All your selected files will be copied to your computer safely. Now you can easily add those songs and videos to your iTunes library. See detailed guide.

More importantly, this won't overwrite any original files on your iPod. And all song names are preserved.



Here is step-by-step guide on the whole process:

Answer 4

If you purchased your music through itunes then you shouldn't have any issues whatsoever. If you did not purchase through itunes, then yes, it will only let you transfer the purchased music and will delete the rest. However, don't be afraid to try. Apple won't delete anything without giving you the options and letting you decide how to proceed.
