The Music app uses the existing iTunes files in the same iTunes Media folder. You can simply hold down the option key when opening the Music app and it'll ask you to choose a music library to open. Then simply click on the iTunes .itl file you want to convert over to the new Music app and it'll create a new .musiclibrary file for you.

You can also turn off automatic syncing for music, movies, and TV shows. You must do this if you want to sync iPod classic, iPod nano, or iPod shuffle with more than one iTunes library, or automatically fill your device with songs using Autofill (see the next task, below).


How Do You Transfer Music From Free Music Download To Itunes

If you want items to appear in iTunes but also remain in their original location, deselect this checkbox. For example, you can keep music imported from CDs on your computer and save your video files on an external storage device.

To transfer music from iPhone to Android, launch iTunes on the PC, select the music you want to transfer, and add it to a new folder on the PC. Next, connect your Android device to your computer, navigate to the device's Music folder, and copy and paste the songs you want to transfer.

To transfer a Spotify playlist to Apple Music, use a third-party syncing app such as SongShift. Download SongShift from the App Store, launch it, and tap Spotify. Enter your login information, tap Agree, and then tap Apple Music > Connect and follow the prompts.

To download music to your Android phone from a PC, connect your phone to the computer with a USB cable and tap Allow. Find the songs on the computer you want to transfer and move them to a new folder. Drag the music you want to download to the Android phone's music folder.

I have several old iTunes libraries that I transferred some time back to external drives. I'd like to transfer them to the new Music app. However, when I copied them to the hard drives, the OS seems to have removed the library extension or changed something internally and when I try to open them in the music app the app treats them like they are a folder and will not import the libraries. As I search through "choose library" when trying to open the library, it just opens them as if they were a folder. The folders contain all the subsidiary files put there by iTunes, but Apple music doesn't seem to be able to make sense of them.

Applecare has been clueless. they don't even seem to be able to differentiate between Apple music the app and the subscription service. They have given me all kinds of mis-advice like it must be that the music files have copy protection. None of them do. They have all been ripped from CDs that I bought or are music files I recorded myself and, anyway, the Music app doesn't recognize the library and doesn't even get to the stage of opening a music file where it would check for copy protection. Some of the music files I actually bought from Apple.

See Move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Community for general background on moving iTunes libraries to Apple Music. It should work much the same as iTunes as far as music is concerned. There are changes for audiobooks, podcasts, and video content.

If you don't have the XML files or access to Catalina or Big Sur I could convert the .itl files for you. I've done a number over the last few weeks. You can send me a link to your .itl files on a cloud service such as iCloud Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, etc. I would convert the libraries to the .musiclibrary format and post back a link in the same way. You'll find my email address in my profile here.

The intended process is that you hold down option as you launch Music, select an existing .itl file, then choose a location to save the converted library. A new folder is made and a Music Library.musiclibrary package (a folder that appears as a single file) is built inside that folder to host the converted database. It will make everything tidier, particularly with multiple libraries, if you move the resultant database into the same folder as the original .itl file, so that each library folder holds its own media folder. You can also rename the media folder from iTunes Media to Media to match the standard layout of a Music library.

As with iTunes you can switch from one library to another by holding down option as you launch Music and choosing the .musiclibrary package that you want to open. The database defines what is known to that library, there is no automatic mapping of the contents of the media folder.

You also have the app "Cloudbeats" that allow you to download your music from your cloud (google drive or similar". Just upload your music on your cloud, install the app and login on your cloud, download the music and enjoy.

I have one computer running Monterey (Mac Pro) and another one running Mojave (Macbook pro). I want to transfer my iTunes music library (all audio files and playlist and rating information) from the Mojave computer to the Monterey computer so I can listen to them in the new music app on the newer machine and ultimately pair the new machine with an iphone.

I am on Apple Music. And to convert Apple Music to Sandisk player, I use the Audio Converter for Windows to help me. With it, I can download and convert Apple Music as local files in other plain audio formats. Then I can sync the music to any other devices or platforms with ease.

Spotify is better. There are software like Spotify music converter Mac from Audfree which can help you download music to your mp3 player at high speed. No Spotify Premium required and you can get the music files with original sound quality preserved.

We have discussed different solutions to the question of how to transfer files from iTunes to iPhone automatically, manually, and transferring music from computer to iPhone without iTunes. Among all the solutions, AirDroid Personal is one of the most convenient and hyper-fast methods for transferring music or other format files. Besides, you can also use AirDroid for screen mirroring, remote control, and as a device management tool.

Depending on the size of your music library, it might take some time to load your tracks and playlists, and for iMazing to compare the files with those already on your computer's iTunes or Music library.

? Tip: Tracks already listed in your computer's music library are displayed with a small icon next to a track's name. Click the pull-down menu in the top-left corner to hide all the tracks already in a computer's library.

Click Export, and iMazing will begin transferring the files from your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to your computer's music library. The length of time this will take depends on how many tracks are selected.

Starting with macOS 10.14 Mojave in 2018, Apple added new security features that guard against malware and spyware accessing your information and controlling your apps via automations. You must now explicitly authorize apps to access specific data and automated actions, including iMazing to control iTunes or Music in order to import music to your Mac's library (Apple replaced iTunes with Music beginning with macOS 10.15 Catalina).

iCloud Music tracks that aren't downloaded cannot be copied, because they are not on your device. If you do want to export music that's in your iCloud Music Library, you should download it first to your device, or use iCloud Music on your computer as well.

As a general rule, iTunes (the application, not the store) and Apple Music (the application that has replaced iTunes on macOS, not the subscription service) organizes its music library on disk in the same way that a B2 wants its music: Artist folders, containing Album folders, containing tracks. This is true no matter how you can search or display the music in the iTunes or Music application interface.


The easy way, therefore, to copy your iTunes or Apple Music files -- the ones you actually own, either by purchasing them or by ripping CDs; subscription files you have downloaded for "offline use" are probably encrypted and cannot be used outside of the Apple Music application -- is to find and copy the Library folder structure.


There is only one reason we need to run the application: to look in its Preferences in order to locate where on the disk it keeps the actual music library.


While there are similarities between iTunes (which is still the program that runs on Microsoft Windows) and Apple Music (on current versions of macOS), I have split out the Windows and Mac steps in order to show appropriate screen images for each.


iTunes on MS-Windows:

Run iTunes, and on the Edit menu click on Preferences.



In the Preferences window that pops up, click on Advanced.



Note that the option "Keep iTunes Media folder organized" is checked; I believe this has been the default setting for a long time (at least since 2003). The path that you need is shown as the "iTunes Media folder location"; navigate to it in the Windows Explorer (some people call it File Manager).


You can now close iTunes, as we will be working in the Explorer.


Under the iTunes Media folder is a folder called Music; inside that are the artist folders, containing album folders, and finally tracks.


(here you can see tracks in the right-hand pane, and in the left-hand pane you can see they are in the album "It's Not Me, It's You", under the artist Lily Allen. The Address bar shows the artists are the top level under the Music folder in iTunes Media.)


You can right-click on the Music folder and select Properties to find out how big it is.



Apple Music on macOS:

Launch Music, and on the menubar under Music click on Preferences. In the Preferences window that pops up, click on Files.



Note that the option "Keep Music Media folder organized" is checked; I believe this has been the default setting for a long time (at least since iTunes in 2003). The path that you need is shown as the "Music Media folder location"; navigate to it in the Finder.


You can now close Apple Music, as we will be working in the Finder.


In this example, the Music Media folder is called "iTunes Music", because that is where the files were when macOS was upgraded and Music replaced iTunes. Inside that are the artist folders, containing album folders, and finally tracks.



You can right-click on the iTunes Music folder and select Get Info to find out how big it is.


Final steps, on either platform:

If you have a USB drive big enough to hold the entire music folder, just drag (copy) the whole folder to the USB drive. At the very least you will have a backup copy that way.


If you use a thumb drive (also called "USB stick"), usually they come from the factory formatted to FAT32, which is what the B2 wants. It won't use anything else. If you have a different USB drive with nothing on it that you want to keep, the B2 can format it for you -- formatting erases everything already there, so be careful if it has files. Then if you copy the iTunes or Music library folder to it, the B2 will be able to read it directly and you should be able to Import directly from the USB drive.



Some things to be aware of if you have a Mac:

Macs have an annoying habit (well, it's annoying to the rest of us) of storing information in files in two "forks" -- a data fork, which in this case contains the actual music, and a resource fork, which contains some information used by macOS (and nothing else). On a Mac-native file system -- HFS, HFS+, AFS -- they occupy one file. On other file systems -- FAT32, ext4 -- they get split into two files. Viewed from a Mac they still look like one file, but when you get those files over to the B2 you will probably see filenames starting with ._ (dot underscore), and they'll all be really small. Those are the resource forks for the corresponding data files. The B2 has a "clean up" function on the menus to get rid of them for you. (Settings > Maintenance > Cleanup)


The B2 can play MP3 files; it can play M4A files; it can play WAV, FLAC, and ALAC files (but you are unlikely to find WAV or FLAC on a Mac or from Apple, as Apple chose to use AIFF instead of WAV and ALAC instead of FLAC). It's possible to convert AIFF or other formats if you need to. (On a Mac I would use XLD, which is freeware.)


Nothing but your iTunes account can decrypt M4P files, which are Apple's DRM protected files. iTunes could burn audio CDs from them, which effectively strips the DRM; maybe Music can do the same. M4P files will not be playable on a B2.
