My old laptop died, how do I get my songs back?

Hey!


So recently my laptop died and it's going to cost $250 to fix it and I don't wanna be paying that much if I just want to get my iTunes library back. I only have some of my songs on my iPhone and I need to get my songs back since I have over 3,000 on the laptop.


You may say to download all your purchases, but I've put CDS on and I don't have them all, so how do I do this?

Can the computer repair place that you're using just recover the data on your hard drive for a lesser cost?


What you need is the iTunes folder that was under Computer/Libraries/Music on your laptop. If that folder can be saved to a flash drive or other media, then all you have to do is copy it over to the Music Libary on your new computer, assuming you're replacing it, and iTunes will automatically detect your library again.


Hope that helps
