I have an old desktop that I have not used in years. My wife reminded me of all the IT downloads that are on it. I no longer have that email account nor do I remember the apple id log in. How can I recover my music?
Hi passline711,
I understand you would like to transfer an iTunes library to a new computer. The following article provides various options for doing so:

If you need assistance recovering your Apple ID information, you can reference this article:

I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
Note: @mac.com and @me.com Apple IDs can not be renamed. If you no longer use the .mac or .me email address be sure to add your valid email address as an additional email address.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
