Transfer IPOD DB to new MAC

How can I transfer content from my old IPOD to my new laptop Mac?  I tried all the suggestions and make the necessary changes in the settings but I can't access the files on the IPOD Nano.  When I try to sync the IPOD, I'm warned that it will eliminate from my iTunes library.  I just simply want to transfer the files from the IPOD to the Mac.  I can't access the IPOD records, where the music, she is somehow hidden.  Initially I had synced the IPOD on a Windows computer.  This is why I have problems to find the files?  Why Apple would make it so hard?  Thanks for any help!

iTunes synchronization is generally in one direction, from iTunes to iPod library.  You cannot use iTunes to transfer files of song from iPod to computer (with the exception of songs purchased from the iTunes Store).  However, there are methods and third party utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like 'ipod music transfer', you should get a few links (including a CNET article on the subject).

Ideally, you should transfer your complete from your old computer to your new Mac iTunes library.  Your iPod is not designed to be your vehicle to backup or transfer of iTunes data.  So, if you have access to your old computer, with its iTunes library intact (or have a backup of your iTunes data), please report for information on the best way to transfer your iTunes data to the new Mac.  You will have then everything, including the support of data such as reading lists, notes, date added, etc.  Your iTunes library on your new Mac will the same iTunes library on your old computer.

    I have an iPod classic 5th generation which has all my music on it. I had an old office that was on original music and he's dead.

    Ideally, you have a backup of your user data from your old computer, including your iTunes data, and you can transfer data from iTunes on your Mac.

    By design, iTunes sync is generally in one direction, from the iTunes library on your computer to the iPod.  You cannot use iTunes to transfer files of song from iPod to computer, with the exception of songs purchased on the iTunes Store (you can also re - download on iTunes Store free of charge).  However, there are methods and third party utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like 'ipod music transfer', you should get a few useful links.  Once the files of the song on the drive of your Mac, add them to your current iTunes library.

    If you want to make your library iTunes music accessible to other computers and devices (compatible), you own, you need to subscribe to Match iTunes (or Apple's music) gives you a library music to iCloud.

    And since you are using a Mac now, don't forget TSF function built-in Time Machine an external drive, allows you to save all your data automatically.  (iPods are not intended for backup data iTunes).

However, to make things more complicated I seem to have misplaced my disk. How do you propose that I transfer to my new Mac Creative Suite?

    Thank you very much

    You don't want to transfer even if you could.  Transfer does not work in most cases.  You must install using installation files.  You can download these files (cannot provide a general link since you don't specify the version)...

    You will need your serial number to activate, which is normally on the disc case.  If you have registered the software when you initially installed then you may be able to find it registered in your Adobe account online in the section my products.

  • How to transfer a playlist from old mac to new mac

    I just copied a CD on my old Itunes Mac (because I don't have CD player in the new Macbook air). Then, I created a playlist with the tracks on the CD. Now, how to transfer the new list of reading old mac to new mac?

    Hello rbaenzm,

    I understand you want to get music from a CD in your new MacBook Air, but you do not have a CD player.  Since you have already imported your CDs in your old (er) Mac iTunes library, you can use home sharing to share these files with your MacBook Air:

    If you plan to do it often, it may be easier to our SuperDrive Apple USB drive simply attach to your MacBook Air.

  • The best way to transfer items from the old to the new mac?

    I don't want to transfer the 'bad things' of my old macbook pro to my new macbook air.

    I understand how to transfer my whole system, but which would also take the old stuff I want to leave behind.  You are addressing a model here, so that's why I'd like my new mac to not be infiltrated by bad things.  I cleaned as best as I can on my old mac.

    I think that I can choose what to take charge using a different method.  I discovered only where are my emails.  Use this as an example, do you think that it a bad idea for me to decide what to transfer?  I'd hate to lose points.  I really need to transfer all my word documents and software I use, for example, my family ancestry tree software.  Apart from the word, my tree (which has been downloaded using a disc), software emails, I can leave behind everything else.  Please give me your impressions.

    I suggest that you use the Migration Wizard. You might find this article helpful: move your content to a new Mac - Apple Support

  • transfer iPhone to new Mac iMessage

    Hello

    Is there a way move/transfer iPhone and iMessages of iMessage on a new mac?

    Messages have been backed up in iTunes.

    I am running Yosemite 10.10.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    The answer is not simple.

    The storage of the iMessages are two types of operating system and the files do not match.

    There are ways to extract messages from the iTunes upward, but it's text only, with no way to get them in Messages on the Mac.

  • Transfer the Aperture/Photo library to new Mac: how to manage the referenced pictures

    Here's the scoop.  I was a long-time user of Aperture with half of my pictures handled as pictures referenced to an external drive.  Photos, as I understand it, also sees the photos as mentioned.

    I then acquired a new iMac and want to now all of my photos to reside on his hard drive and I'll give up on opening.

    So, if I transfer the Photos library file to the new computer, how can I get these files referenced on the new computer?

    Do you want the photos to be referenced or you want to group as managed in the Photos?

    If you want to keep the referenced pictures, use Aperture on your old mac to move files referenced in a folder on the new Mac, before opening the Aperture Photo library to convert it to a library of Photos.

    If you are satisfied with transforming the library to a library of the crib, you can use pictures after the migration the photo library to build the library.

    Pictures has the command "file > consolidate" to move the intone library pictures and make managed, it has few tools to fix the referenced files broken, but it can not move the referenced files. No matter what move you want to do, do it in Aperture, while your library is still an Aperture library.

    Opening 3.6.is still work under MacOS X 10.10.3.

    Hi folks, I'm acquires a new iMac, PC (with Retina 4 K display 21.5 inch iMac) to replace my current iMac (21.5 inch, mid 2010). I sold my existing iMac and will have to ship power off before receiving the new unit, ergo, I won't be able to use the method of transfer of my data from the old to the new Mac.

    Accordingly, I am looking help form to advise me how can I do to preserve my existing Mac data so that I can install on the new Mac. In addition, how to delete all my data from the old Mac but preserve the OS X (El Capitan) and relevant applications.

    All of the advice and recommendations will be greatly appreciated

    1. create a Time Machine backup or clone bootable on an external drive, and then migrate your data from it.

    2. you need to remove El Capitan of the old Mac before send you it off and return it to the most recent of its original operating system or 10.6.8.

  • Transfer from old office for Mac to new Mac Air

    Hi, I just got a new Mac Air and have my old office for Mac on a hard drive. I am able to transfer to my new computer and re - install?

    It really depends on how's old office.  Office 2008, no.    Office 2011, you need to upgrade to a free update specific as explains it my tip:

    http://discussions.Apple.com/docs/doc-8811

    There are free alternatives to the office so

    Alternatives to Microsoft Office

    Documents you should be able to open with any version of office.   It's just the version of Office that makes the difference on El Capitan.
