Can I view in iTunes the music that is on my Ipod?

When I click on my ipod icon in iTunes and go to the music tab all I see is a screen has Sync check boxes. I thought I would be able to see the music that is actually on my ipod. Thanks for any help.

If you click on the little triangle to the left of the iPod symbol, it should open up the playlists on your ipod and allow you to view them.
If your iPod is on autosync, the tracks are greyed out, but you can look at them.

  • I lost my iTunes library on my pc when the hard drive crashed. None of the data on the drive was recoverable and I did not have a backup. How can I get the music that resides on my ipod nano (4th generation back onto the new hard drive on my pc.

    I lost my iTunes library on my pc when the hard drive crashed. None of the data on the drive was recoverable and I did not have a backup either locally or on the cloud. Much of the music is from old vinyl and podcasts which are no longer available.
    How can I get the music that resides on my ipod nano (4th generation) back onto the new hard drive on my pc.
    I have been reluctant to install iTunes on the new hard drive out of fear that I will lose all the contents on the ipod if I try to synch to the new hard drive.
    Help!

    No backup is a huge mistake.

  • How can I restore the music that was on my iPod to my computer or another iPod?

    My iPod classic has failed with an HDD error. I've tried recover mode and everything, it's goosed. Half my music was only on the iPod, a collection over the years from my various computers, it was backed up using itunes however. How can i restore the music that was on my iPod to my computer or another iPod? (dont have another classic, only shuffle and iphone) I'm guessing itunes holds some kind of virtual image of the ipod classic somewhere. THanks in advance for any info, google didn't produce anything I could use.

    That is stealing. Your friend does not have the right to give her music away. Delete them and purchase your own music.

  • Why iTunes can't let us copy the songs that is from our iPod to our PC?

    I do not know why iTunes can't let us copy the songs that is from our iPod to our PC.

    They should be in iTunes or on your backup.
    If for some reason they are not on your computer and you have failed to maintain regular backups, see this post by Zevoneer -> http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11646661&#11646661

  • How can I get rid of the music that plays when people call me?

    I get complaints about the music that plays when people call me. They expect  a tone that indicates a ringing phone and get frustrated with the music.
    How do i change from the automatic music to a ring tone? Thanks-

    I read this OP's post better then I did that other one from this morning.
    I am not crazy about those that have ringback tones on their phones.  It is a good thing that no one I call has one any more.

  • My pc won't recognize the music that's on my iPod touch.

    I changed computers, and my current pc doesn't recognize the music that I have on my 3rd gen iPod touch.

    Once I turned off User Account Control, I was able to purchase TouchCopy.  My computer wants me to turn User Account Control back on, which is fine, but why does iTunes require that I authorize it each time I open?  I can open all my other programs directly.
    Thanks, lllaass!

  • Why can't I immediately see the music that I've downloaded from itunes from my phone? I have to get to a wifi area and look for the music before it actually shows in my library. It wasn't like that before.

    Sometimes when I'm at work or just out and about I will download an album to my iPhone. It used to show up immediately in my iTunes library and I could start listening to my new music right away. It was awesome on trips or in the office or just with friends. Someone would mention a song, I beebop over to itunes, download it and BOOM everyone gets to listen to the song! Now, however, If I download any music without WiFi, it won't sync immediately to my library. It appears to be doing so, but I can't actually see any of the music until I get into a WiFi friendly area. Once I've done that, the music stays there so it's not the end of the world...I am getting my music. But, dang it, I want it now! Just like I used to!
    Is anyone else having this problem? I have the iPhone 5 and it's fully updated.

  • HT1296 Why can't I put the music, that is on my ipod, on to my computer itunes?

    I got a new computer because my old one went out of commision. All I want to do is put the music and apps that are on my ipod onto my itunes on my new computer. My computer doesn't recognize it as a media player or Ipod. It recognizes it as a Digital Camera. So I can't acsess any of my music or apps to place them on my computer or itunes. I can't veiw it at all. It acs as if none of it is even on there. When I try and sync my ipod to my computer it says: Syncing ipod to itunes will add the music from itunes onto my ipod but erase everything existing on the ipod. Would you like to sync? NO. I just want to add my music to my computer and add more. Is there any way to do that without completely erasing everything that's currently on my ipod? Have over 100 songs and about 50 apps. Any help is MUCHO apreciated.

  • Is there a way to delete ALL of my music off of my iTunes/computer EXCEPT for the music that's on my iPod touch?

    I have old music that I have deleted from my iPod that I no longer wish to have on there, but it reappeared in my iTunes.
    All of the music on my iPod I want to keep, and one other CD I've gotten since then. Is there any way to delete everything (for good, this time) except for what's already on my iPod (and another CD, too, if possible?)

    I sounds like you restored the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.  In iTunes on yur computer go to iTunes Preferences. click on he Ddvices tab.  If the date of the backup file indicate that it it has the history you can restore from that backup.

  • HT4539 I do not have all my music on my computer or I phone. How can I transfer the music that is on my ipod classic to my computer?

    I am missing some music on my computer and Iphone. I do have the music on my ipod classic. How do I transfer the music from my ipod to my computer?

    If it's music purchased from iTunes then connect the iPod to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, or you may be able to redownload it on your computer's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage (whether you can redownload music depends upon what country that you are in, and whether it's still in your store).
    For music from other source (e.g. copied from sources), then if you don't have a copy of it anywhere (e.g. on an external drive) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • I have deleted a number of songs on my Mac and do not want them reinstated from my iPod when I hard synch - in other words I want the music that is currently on my Mac not all the music that is on my iPod.  thanks

    I have deleted music from from Mac and do not want them added back from my Ipod when I synch - how do I do it?

    If you remove tracks from iTunes (and your mac), they will be removed from your iPod the next time you sync it with your iTunes library.  That is unless you manually manage your iPod's contents, in which you'll need to manually remove the desired tracks from your iPod Classic via the iTunes interface.

  • HT1727 Hello,  I have a new computer as my other computer is not working.  How can I access all of the music that I have previously purchased?

    My song titles are all there but my new computer cannot access the song content. Is there a way to access my music?

    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer or the backup of the old computer to the new computer.  You do maintain a backup of your media and other important data, correct?
