How can i put songs from my ipod into my itunes library?

I want to sort out all mu music on my ipod and start fresh, but i want to keep all my music. Is there a way of putting music from my ipod into my iTunes library? I understand that if there is music on my ipod then i mustve put it on there from the library but i dont think i did! It's just not there! all i need to do is transfer it from my ipod to my itunes library Pls help. Ta.

iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod, iPad, or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
With your iPod connected, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPod.
If you had Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPod sync preferences with iTunes, after downloading a song from the iTunes store direct with your iPod, the song would be copied to your iTunes library automatically the first time you sync your iPod with iTunes after doing so.
Manually managing music and videos is manual all the way.

    My itunes library is missing loads of songs.  How do I move songs from an old ipod into my library, so that I can then move into my new ipod and ipad?

  • How can I move songs on my ipod into my itunes library?

    All of my files from my laptop were recently deleted however they stayed on my ipod. Is there any way I can move these files into my itunes library? I have tried copying and pasting but it doesn't seem to work.

    Hello there,
    There are several ways you can accomplish this. The first link after the Apple support document below provides step-by-step instructions for the direct method if you have a PC as well as a few third party applications (for both the Mac and PC) if you choose to go that route instead. You can also do a simple google search for "copy music from iPod to computer" and you should receive a number of sites that can help you out.
    Just make sure that when you have your iPod plugged into your computer, that you don't hit "Erase and Sync" before completing the task of copying your music over.
    Also, if you have any purchased music, you will probably have to re-authorize your computer by heading to the Store drop down menu and choosing "Authorize computer."

  • How can I put songs on my ipod into my itunhes library?

    Help... I got a message saying "Warning! The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs & DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes." I got that when I tried to open itunes after i installed a burning software. I am going to have to reinstall itunes, but I don't want to loose all my album art and play count and playlists. How can I save all this??

    Don't Worry, as long as your music is consolidated in your library, then your information (ie alb. art lyrics blah) will be saved! Just don't delete your music in your iTunes folder!

  • How can i transfert song  from my ipod to my itune list

    i format my pc and all my song are store on my ipod , i reinstall itune but cant transfert song from my ipod into my library, it only give me choice to erase my toon on my ipod to replace it

    There is no way to transfer songs backwards from the iPod to the computer thru iTunes. You would have to search for an external program to do this.

  • How can I transfer music from my iPod to my iTunes library?

    Recently my previous notebook broke so that my whole iTunes library was deleted. Lucky me I have all my songs on my iPod and I didnt have any problems trasferring the songs I bought at iTunes to my iTunes library, but I don't know how to transfer the other songs.
    Is there anybody who can help me?

    iTunes will only let you copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer,
    For everything else (music from CDs, other downloads and including iTunes purchased songs and in some cases, videos and games) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

    TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)

    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
    I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

  • HELP!!! VERY IMPORTANT! i can't put songs from my computer into my itunes!!

    this happens to me since last month,
    i uesed to downloaded some songs from other country, and it used to could put them into my iTunes,but since last month everytime i tried to put my downloaded songs into itunes, i didn't appear on the itunes screen and it doesn't appear on my iphone either. why?
    can't put songs into my itunes and my iphone really bothering me!!!
    please help.

    I was certainly not flaming anyone. I was asking specific clarifying questions in an attempt to assist someone who's description of the problem was inadequate for me (and apparently anyone else) to make any recommendations. Even your interpretation really doesn't give enough information to really be useful. The country from which a file is downloaded shouldn't be relevant. If it is, we need to figure out what's different about it.
    All in all, the post was kind of analogous to saying "My car used to work and now it doesn't". An accurate statement as far as it goes but not sufficient for a mechanic to even know where to start.
    I am looking forward to hearing your possible solution to the problem.
    Best of luck.

  • How can I copy music from my ipod to my itunes library?

    I have an ipod nano with all my itunes purchases plus a bunch of music I put on from my old cds.  When I synced my ipod to my new computer it only synced my purchases, not my other downloads.  How can I get all my music onto my itunes library?  I'd even be happy to just add new songs and playlists to my ipod but not fully update the itunes library.  Can anyone help?
    The pod to pc programs online don't seem to work on my computer...

  • How do I import songs from my Ipod to my iTunes library?

    I had ~100 songs in my iTunes library and on my iPod. My computer caught a virus and I had to re-install windows and that erased my iTunes library, however I still have all the songs on my Nano. How do I transfer the songs back to iTunes library on my computer?

    You can do so by following the artical here at iLounge http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/copying-music-from-ipod-to-co mputer/

  • How can I transfer podcasts from my iPod to my iTunes library?

    I have what I believe are called "phantom podcasts" - there are 1022 podcasts on my iPod from KEXP Song of the Day. For some reason, these 1022 podcasts do not show up anywhere in my iTunes library, nor on my computer. I'd like to transfer them from my iPod to my MacBook so I can listen to them and delete whichever ones I dislike. This is taking up way too much space on my iPod.
    I've tried creating a Smart Playlist per an online suggestion to no avail. They're nowhere to be found, except on my iPod.
    Thanks.

    Hello Lo-fiChick,
    The KEXP Song of the Day podcast can be located and subscribed to in iTunes on your computer via the following link. Once subscribed, the podcasts can be downloaded to your computer and removed from your iPod.
    KEXP Song of the Day
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/kexp-song-of-the-day/id121393815?mt=2
    To ease the process of downloading such a large number of episodes, you can adjust the podcast settings once subscribed to 'Keep: All Episodes' and 'Download: All Episodes.'

  • My computer crashed that had all my songs on it - why cant I add the songs from my ipod to my itunes library?

    I would like to add all the music that is on my ipod to my itunes library - for some reason the backup itunes library I have does not have all the music on it and I do not know how to get the songs from my ipod to the itunes library - I do not want to sync the ipod with the current itunes as this would wipe out all the music I have on my ipod.  please help me to get this music back on my computer or in the itunes library.

    One option is to use iTunesFS and extract songs from your iPod.

  • MISSING ITUNES SONGS AND HOW CAN YOU PUT SONGS FROM IPOD ONTO ITUNES?

    i opened my itunes one day and all 654 of my songs were GONE. the entire itunes was blank, as if it was newly installed. it wasn't.
    I have an ipod mini, and that still contains the songs since i did not attach my ipod to my computer when i saw that it was empty. my ipod still has 654 songs. But the problem is, that i wont be able to put new songs if my itunes is blank.
    How do you transfer songs from the ipod to the itunes? Usually when you connect the ipod, it automatically updates, so how will i be able to do that. I have new CDs and i want to put some of those songs on my ipod, but i wont be able to do that if my itunes makes my ipod blank. I called apple support but it costs 29 freaking dollars to help me.
    Can anyone help?
      Windows XP  

    okay, well it has been a long time since i have done this, but i will try to do it to the best of my memory.
    uninstall itunes.
    then reinstall it.
    plug your ipod in.
    a box will pop up that says something like would you like to connect your ipod to this library?
    click NO.
    then, on the sidebar there should be a boldfaced DEVICE sign.
    your ipod should show up.
    go to summary
    then check managely manage my music, and then update.
    this means that when you plug your ipod in, you will have to put the music in yourself. this is good because you can pick and choose, and you can delete songs off your ipod if you do not like it anymore. also, you have the ability to play the music on your computer when your ipod is plugged in. hope that helps..
