Yes. I have no personal experience with this, but it is possible to recover your music from an iPod. See this link: http://guides.macrumors.com/Recovering_Songs_from_an_iPod

My motherboard went out and I got a new computer and I need to deactivate Pro X from the old system and activate it on the new system. How is this done?
Hi David ,
If it is a retail version ,then you need to deactivate it and uninstall it as well from your old computer and then you can install it back on the new computer.
If it a subscription based software ,then you just need to deactivate it and you can operate the same on your new computer by entering in your credentials .
For more information ,you can refer to this link.

Just got a new computer, and I want my songs off my iPod and onto my iTunes
So, I just got my new computer, and I have about 400 songs on my new iTunes. However, on my iPod, I have around 3,000. Some of the songs, however, I no longer have the cds for. I really don't feel like buying or tracking down ALL of those songs again. Is there a way I can get the songs off my iPod and onto my new iTunes? And no, I'm not trying to give all these songs to my friends or anything, I'm just trying to keep them all! If I could get an answer soon, that would be great!!!!
Thanks!Connect your iPod to your new computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod.
The transfer of content sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However 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. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
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
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. 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. -
I got a new computer and i need to install itunes on it
if i install itunes on my new computer and connect my ipod to it, will it delete all the data off my ipod when i connect it?
You need to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

I just got a new computer and i need to get my itunes on to my new iphone aswell?
how to retrieve my old itunes.....i just bought a new computer and iphone because both broke?
If you have a backup made of your iTunes library, you can restore that to your new computer. Post back with information on how the backup was made and someone can give you instructions. If you have no backup, you'll have to hope that the hard drive in your old computer still is working. If it is, you can mount the hard drive in an external case, attach it to your new computer, and copy the iTunes folder from the user folder on the old drive.
If you have neither a backup nor your old hard drive, then unless you have your content on some other iOS device, you'll probably have to re-import your CDs and repurchase anything you purchased from the iTunes Store other than iPhone app which can be re-downloaded without additional charge.

I'm having trouble getting all of my apps and photos to sync to the new computer and only about half of my music will copy over. What am I missing?
It will only move "purchased" songs - i.e. those bought through the iTunes store. Anything that you loaded into iTunes from another source (CD, bought elsewhere, etc.) has to be either reloaded from that source, or brought over via iTunes "Home Sharing".
In my own experience, Home Sharing works the best - although it can take literally days, depending on how large your music/ap/movie library is on the original computer. -

I got a new computer and I need to get my songs from Ipod on it..
Can any one help...I am tranfering jobs and need will need to get my music on the new laptop.
They would need to use those utilities if they no longer have access to the old computer & the original iTunes library.
If they still have access to the old machine, then this is an easy way to transfer the library. -
Please help?
Copy or move the content from the old computer to the new computer.
iDevices are not and have never been backup devices. -

Got a new computer and don't know what to do
I got a new computer and really need some help. I plugged my iphone into the computer and tried to sync it. It says that I have songs on my iphone that are not in my itunes library and I will lose them if I sync my phone. How do I transfer the songs on my iphone into itunes?
You should move your iTunes library and media over to your new PC.
Refer to these articles:

I just got a new computer and want my entire library on my ipod classic to be transferred to my computer. I transferred as many files as I could from my old computer through my external hard drive, but many of my cds didn't transfer. When I hook up my ipod, I see it's entire contents. My question is, does a sync only work from the computer to the ipod, or if I sync my ipod will the songs on it be synced to my computer along with all the playlists? My biggest worry is if I sync it, it will go back to the factory settings or I lose all my music. I appreciate any help.
Yes...
For iTunes purchases...
Launch iTunes on the new computer. From the iTunes menu bar click Store > Authorize This Computer
Now from the menu bar click File > Transfer Purchases from...

I got a new computer and need to sync my iPhone and ipad on it, how do i do that without losing all data. I need help ASAP!
If you still have the old computer see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
If you don't have your old computer, but you made regular backups of it, restore the most recent backup using the backup software that you used to make the backup. You will have to read the instructions for it.
If you don't have your old computer and you did not back it up regularly see: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive
