How to move my iTunes from my old laptop onto my new laptop?
All my iTunes is on my old laptop and I just got a new laptop, how do I do it? I want all my stuff for my iPhone moved onto my new laptop but I don't know how. I synced my phone on my iTunes on my new laptop but the songs/apps/anything didn't go with it. How do I transfer? It gave me the option to do it but it said it would wipe it and I don't want that.
Really need to know more about both your old and new laptops to be able to give a good answer.
You can connect an external hard drive to your old laptop and copy the entire iTunes folder over to the external then when that's done you can connect the external to your new laptop and move the iTunes folder over your new laptop. This could take a long time depending on how much music you've got.
To help you manage the transference process from iPhone to your new laptop, you can refer to a third-party app named iTransfer, which only works when iTunes has been installed. All you get to do is plug in the iPhone, choose the file you desire to transfer, set the location of the output file and then click Transfer Now button to active the transference. After all those steps, you will find those files have been transferred to your computer.

- How to move pictures from old iPhone 4 to my new iPhone 5s? I tried to use the iCloud thing but it wouldn't let me because they shut down the service on my iPhone 4.
