: WAS iPhone Photos to MMeMy partner (smart physician, good with stocks, just learning Macs) loaded hundreds of songs from CD's successfully onto iTunes of his home iMac. Then, he copied/synced those from that iMac onto his 3GS where they now reside in the iPod app. THEN, (almost done now.......) that iMac declined into "gray screen only" on startup (which we will address this weekend), and he needs to load the saved songs from his 3GS to iTunes on another functioning iMac
. He's running iTunes 10 on the newer, functioning iMac, but we weren't able to find a reference at Apple Support that was successful to tell us how to accomplish this transfer. We connected his 3GS and authorized the good iMac, but the "Transfer Dr. M's Songs to iTunes" or "Import to Library" did not work. What do you recommend?iPhone iMac
You can't legitimately copy from iPhones to iTunes (anti piracy measure). There are "tools" (google transfer music from iPhone to computer) or just copy the iTunes music folder from original mac to am external drive and import it to the other mac.-----
Download a free program called "podtomac" from the Internet to the Mac
that is working. Then, plug in his iPhone and this program will "grab" the songs from the phone and transfer them onto the new computer. Most people back up their music libraries to some external hard drive or some cloud storage company, just in case.Because let's face it: computers come and go. Can't trust them to last for very long.
