How do you move songs from one itunes to another itunes?

I have my home computer which all my songs are on and now I have a laptop and I want to put all my songs on the laptop. Both computers are mac. I already put the purchased songs on the laptop I just need the other songs



Thanks,

Answers:

USB Flash Drive.



The size of the flash drive you should buy will depend on the size of your iTunes library. If your iTunes library totals up to 4gb, then You would need to get a 4gb Flash drive. Drag and dropping music works with iTunes, so that%26#39;ll make things easier.



First connect the USB flash drive. Open it up and view the folder. It should be emptied, unless it isn%26#39;t new. Open up iTunes. Select all of your songs from your library, and drag it into the USB flash drive. It may take some time if you have a large library. Eject the flash drive. Connect it to your laptop. Open up the flash drive. Open up iTunes. Do the reverse directions. Select all music from your USB Flash drive and drag it into your iTunes library.



In your case, you will be selected the songs not on your laptop at the moment, if you select songs you already have in your iTunes, you%26#39;ll end up with 2 of the same songs, which isn%26#39;t what you want.



I tested this out with a Windows XP desktop %26 laptop, Not sure if it%26#39;ll work with a Mac. However, I am pretty sure it%26#39;ll work.



Burning the songs into Audio CDs will work to, but a bit time consuming for large music libraries. Same with attaching them as an email attachment.
