I have finally gotten a new computer and would like to transfer 238 chinesepod lessons that I now have on I-Tunes on my old computer to my new computer.  Being technologically challenged, I have no idea how to go about this.  Can someone advise me step by step. Thanks for your help.  Sorry to be so backwards about these things!

CD burner on old computer is not working which is one of the reasons for the new computer. I want to take the downloads from I-Tunes on a windows system on a PC to I-tunes on a macbook system. Is there any other way besides burning a cd? I really appreciate your suggestions. Thanks.

email them to yourself, although some emails only allow 10mb to be sent in one message. The best way is to use a digital vault just upload on old and download on new https://order.digitalvault.bt.com/BTDigitalVault/DigitalVault?JSPName=ordernowdv&dvProductCode=BSC1F

Non-BT Total Broadband customers receive 1GB storage. Service will continue providing it is used at least every 90 days

Wei xiao: If you have the lessons on an Ipod, you can simply use a ripping tool like IRip, ( shareware ) and copy straight to your new computer's Itunes. Or you can use an outboard DVD/CD recorder or hard drive to copy your MP3' files straight from Itunes. Another resort would be to upload your MP3 files to yousendit.com in packets of up to 100 mb. Then simply download them to your new computer. Yousendit requires your to register first but it's "mian3 fei4". Good luck.
