Just download itunes on new computer and authorize it to your account, should be able to authorize 5 computers per itunes account. That will let you play the music you bought from itunes on the new one.
To transfer your music files from old to new you need some sort of external hard drive, memory stick, or a way to connect the two computers and exchange the data that way.

I also have a external hard drive I down loaded all my info on and the two computers have something different and they cant talk to each other.
I am to stupid to understand all this stuff
But I do thank you for trying to help.

I am guessing that one is mac and one is windows? You should still be able to swap files with an external. Is it a USB external? Formatted to which machine (if different like I mentioned)? I have a mac desktop and windows portable, and I swap everything just fine with my external.
If one of your machines is a mac, and they are both on the same wireless network then you can share extremely easy with them. Mac's make the process much easier then windows.

I barley know how to turn the damn thing on.Originally posted by Turbo3000 View PostI am guessing that one is mac and one is windows? You should still be able to swap files with an external.

Yes it was a USB external. My buddy said best buy(where I got it from) will swap over my info for $40 bucks. If that is true I have no problem with that.

Ah damn, I wish I lived near Cali. Sucks to spend 40 bucks on that. Since they are both windows it should be fine. Unless you had some odd firewall or user setting that would cause the communication between them to not work.Originally posted by ROCKETW19 View PostI belive it had to do with different widows. one is vista and one is XP or something like that I realy dont know.
