Thank you! but how complicated.
No, it is very simple.
Connect the computer & run Migration Assistant. It copies all your user data from old computer to new.
You aren't interested in any of your user data (settings, emails, contacts, calendars & documents) except for your iTunes music?
Can´t I just tell my mac air to read and save all the music stored on my iphone so this becomes my new library instead of having to use migration assistant?
You can but not everything transfers. Only iTunes purchases.
Connect the iPhone and open iTunes.
Go to File > Devices, select your iphone then Transfer purchases. Notet that nothing else will transfer over.

I will try the migration assistant as you suggest but yes I ONLY want to recover my itunes library....
Thank you again for your help.
