Does anyone happen to know how to transfer music from your iPhone to a new computer?
iTunes won't let me and I'm pissed. I've had the same music library since like 2006 that I keep adding too, and I'm NOT going to buy it from iTunes.

Someone really geeky and beautiful at the same time...please help ♥

B,

I just had to do this. In your itunes, authenticate your account and the new computer. It should allow you to sync up your shit after that. I'm pretty possessive about my music collection so I feel your pain.

Never ever, trust any products under the name of —Mac and apple?? it's built for the —suckers??.Now, go this link and follow the instructions —it worked perfectly for my friends??.

Damn any apple product


After that, do yourself a favour.. Put that thing in nearest garbage can and like any other —normal?? human being get yourself a —normal?? Mp3 player, things like Creative ZEN-XFi ??_. It is great mediaplayer and plays what ever you throw at it.

The smartest thing with this gadget is, it has both internal storage —ranging from 4 - 32 GB?? and external expansion slot for standard SD cards so you can practically double or triples the storage place.

That's it. I'm selling it and getting my Blackberry back. This is bullshit.
Thanks for the advice. I'll try the third party stuff.

I was always able to get my music off my iPod by just showing hidden files but it won't work with the iPhone because they're obviously trying to make my life miserable

Hold up, B. How did you originally get your music onto your Iphone? The reason I ask is most of my music library was not acquired through the Itunes App store and I haven't had any problems what so ever. There's a way to do this. I just need to figure out how you got to where you are now.

Most of my music is bootleg. :X (whatever, lol)
I had it on my old laptop on iTunes and saved in folders...my old laptop crashed recently - I had it for like 6 years, it had a good run - and now I can't even get it to turn on to get my music from it.
I am able to get my music off my iPod, just not my iPhone. The only thing my iPhone allows me access to is the pictures. I've googled solutions but most don't even come close to working - everyone assumes the iPhone works just like the iPod but it doesn't.
I have a good majority of my music on my iPod so I'll just get it off there and re-download the rest. I just really wish I didn't have to go through all that. Especially when you spend how much money on these stupid things...and they're gonna cockblock you and tell you where you can get your music from? UH EFF YOU APPLE - terrorists. 😢

B, I think I may have one but I won't be able to look at it until this weekend. Most of my shit is ripped from various sources as well so I know there's a solution as my setup has been working flawlessly.

Ok cool. Thanks 😄 I will loveeee you foreverr and long time.



Ya no worries.

For some reason what comes to mind is a setting in Itunes that tells it to sync from Iphone to Itunes rather than Itunes to Iphone but I'm not at home to check it out.
