I got a new laptop today & downloaded iTunes & transferred purchases from iTunes on my iPhone to the new laptop's iTunes but there's about 100 songs that I downloaded on iTunes on my old laptop but I don't know how to get them on to my new laptop.

Any help?

Did you select "Authorize This Computer" from the Store menu?

Have you tried manually dragging the songs from iTunes on your old computer onto a backup drive of some sort. Then connect the drive to the new computer and manually drag the songs and drop them onto itunes?

Best route is to put them on an external hard drive, authorise your new laptop (and de authorise your old one) and copy them to your new computer. Then open Itunes and go to the Itunes menu, click File -> Add Folder -> the folders with your Itunes music and import them that way. Someone told me that was the best way to copy them.
