Question

i need to copy everything from my itunes and copy it to another computer because my other computer is not working so what do i do just copy all music to the other computer i need itunes on the other computer too.

Answer 1

Buy a flash drive, then copy your iTunes to that. Stick it in the other computer, and viola!

Answer 2

I just went through this. its a very fast and simple way...

Once your itunes is installed. adjust your settings to MANUALLY MANAGE MUSIC

Then plug in your ipod.

Go to MY COMPUTER

then go to your flash drive that appears when your ipod is plugged in

You have to set your properties on that to view all hidden files

Once you open up your flash drive there will be a hidden folder that looks transparent called MUSIC

you need to drag/copy the contents of the file into your music folder

Once you do that. You need to drag and drop the files in that into your itunes FOLDER (not the actually program that comes next, BUT THE FOLDER ITSELF)

the contents your dragging are files titled like 001 002 and so forth

once you have drug every one of those files into your itunes folder.

OPEN YOUR ITUNES LIBRARY

THEN your going to open up each folder (001, 002 and so on)

Drag those files by selecting all and dragging them into the itunes library. once you have them all drug, unplug your ipod, make sure they play without it plugged in to make sure you got them all there properly. You might have to fix a few names but not many of them. and you should be all set.

Then you will have to plug your ipod back in, and uncheck manually manage, You will have to sync your ipod, but it will ask you if you want to erase your files and replace them. YOU SAY YES. but not until you have completed all the drop and drag. It sounds time consuming takes all of about 5 minutes.

SERIOUSLY!

Have fun!

Answer 4

Save it to a Memory Card/Stick or copy them all to a disc and then put it onto the other computer. Or you could upload them to the Windows Live SkyDrive or any other online file storage, then log onto your other computer and copy them back

Answer 5

Save the files to a CD, zip drive or external hard drive, then transfer them to the other computer from the external source.

Answer 6

no you don't need itunes.

This is what you do.

You send youself an email with all your songs, to do that just get an attachment email,

And go to your MUSIC folder, so you know how there is my music, my computer my pictures and stuff?

Go there, and your songs should be there in a folder or just out in the open, then just highlight everything, press okay and your good to go!!! and open up the email on your other computer

Goodluck

Answer 7

Your music should be in a folder that is under Itunes, but you don't have to have itunes to use the music files. You can convert them to other mp3 players. I would just save the file and put it on a memory stick and import it into the other computer via usb port.
