Hi. I want to download all my iTunes music and videos onto a Macbook Pro, they already exist on an old MacBook. When I attempted this the iTunes tells me that my library will removed from my phone. Why is this and is there a work round?
Thanks.
The iPhone isn't meant to be used to transfer an iTunes library between computers. Locate it in the Finder and move it through a network, regular external drive, or target disk mode as you would any other folder.

Michael,
That article is used for moving the iTunes media of a library to another location/external drive. It will use the same library on the same computer.
It's not for moving the library/media to a new computer/library.
Use this one instead -> iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
Whoops, you're correct, Chris. That is the article I meant to give a link to. Good catch.
How can I add my iTunes library to a 2nd Mac?
