    Your music will only be where you put it.  It does not magically appear.

     

    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of hour old computer, to your new one

    Go into iTunes store then purchased. You can retrieve it from there.

     

    And don't try to sync with your iPhone or iPod until this is sorted, you're likley to wipe the music from the iPhone/iPod if you try.
