I got a 'new' computer, and it only has the iTunes music that I PURCHASED from iTunes; not the CDs that I downloaded onto my old computer which are also on my iPhone. How do I get those songs from my iTunes iPhone library to my MAC computer? HELP!?!?!?!

You need third party software to copy music from your iPhone to iTunes if you no longer have the CD downloads. There are several applications which can do the transfer for you but they are not free. Senuti is one such application and can be purchased from here. ($18.99) Make sure you purchase the Mac version. They also have a trial version that you can download to try out before buying.

Thanks for your response! I actually just downloaded iTunes Match onto my computer. Done. However, when I go to turn it on in the settings on my iPhone, it tells me I am not subscribed and have to first subscribe on my computer. Argh... any advice/ knowledge? Thank you! :)

Do you have an Apple ID yet? If not, you need to create one for yourself before you can subscribe to iTunes Match.

Please read the following Apple KB article which explains about subscribing to iTunes Match: LINK
