Hi Kari, I'm new to the Mac as well. I've only had my Macbook since April. I had this same trouble. As far as putting all my music content and stories on the Mac from Windows I used my Seagate hard drive and just plugged it in to the USB port on the Mac. To open something of this nature, you hit control, option shift and D as in David. This will bring you to the desktop. You find the hard drive and hit command O and the drive will open. Then you can just copy with command C and paste with command V. Someone more knowledgable than me has probably already answered your next question, but I will try my best to answer it also.
To sync your Iphone or Ipad with Itunes, you plug it in as normal and in Itunes it will show up in the sources list. You make sure you are on the Iphone or Ipad and you just Vo right arrow. You will have something like Iphone setting scroll area. You interact with that and you should see all your tabs that you can sync different content with. Just hit VO Space to select the music, books, podcasts tab, etc. I hope that helps. I will have a podcast on configuring and syncing Iphone content with selected playlists by the end of today. Have a wonderful day and congratulations on your transition to the Mac. I have been a Windows user for years, and I love my Mac! I will always have a Windows PC around, but my Mac is my go to PC now.
