IPOD 4GB can i copy music from one IPOD to the other

I have tried doing this but it comes up with your not authorised .

You can't copy directly from one iPod to another, the songs have to be transferred to iTunes first and your second iPod is updated from there. The transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of content from other 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.

There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod

  • How can I copy songs from one iPod to another?

    I received a new iPod Classic (last generation) and I'm trying to transfer my songs from my old iPod Nano (also last generation).
    My iTunes library is also split up between my two parent's houses and I only have half the songs on my Nano in this computer's library.
    Is there a way to copy only the songs on the +iPod Nano+ (not the iTunes library) and drop them onto the new iPod?

    You can't copy directly from one iPod to another, you have to copy the songs back to iTunes and update the new iPod from there.

    how do i copy music from one ipod to another with 1 cord?

    You cannot copy content directly from one iPod to another. If the music was purchased from the iTunes Store, you have the following options:
    - sync the iPod to your computer, transfer the content to iTunes, and then connect the other iPod and sync from iTunes
    - use iCloud (which requires iOS 5).
    - download the music from from the iTunes Store to the second iPod. See:

  • Can I transfer music from one Ipod touch to a newer generation Ipod touch?

    Can I transfer music from one IPod Touch to a newer generation IPod Touch?

    - No directly.  You have to first get the music in your itunes library on your computer and then sync the music to the new computer.
    - You can/should restore you new iPod from the backup of your old iPod to get app date and other things on the new iPod.  You will have to reenter passwords since passwords only get restore to the same device. The backup does not contain music so that has to be synced.
    - You can transfer iTunes purchased from an iPod to your computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - The follow discussion discusses third-party programs to transfer non-iTunes purchases from an iPod to a computer.

  • OSB : How can we copy  actions from one project folder to other projects?

    How can we copy actions from one project folder to other projects in OSB?
    For eg:
    I have a service call out action in Project1/proxySer1
    I want to copy this to Project2/proxySer2.
    Espicially, in our case error handling callout is common to all of our projects and we should be able to copy from one to another.
    Edited by: user10367892 on Aug 20, 2009 12:28 PM

    Thank you for the reply.
    It was my fault. I was on two different servers, while i was doing this and so didn't work. But copy /past action works as you suggested.
    Can I select multiple actions from one stage and paste to different proxy service? I have too many options to copy/paste and hence I have this question.
    Is there any other way of copying all selected actions in one stage to another, but not the complete stage itselft?

  • I have a new iMac and i created two libraries on iTunes. how do i copy songs from one library to the other?

    I have a new imac. I created two libraries, one for me, one for my kids. how do I copy songs from one library to the other library?

    Not easy unless you're just content with adding some files to the other as new files but lose playlists for those files, and playcount, and ratings, etc.  If you're okay with that, you can drag the media folder from one library to the other. If you use default settings and want to duplicate the media, just drag it. If you want to add the media but leave it where it is currently located, hold down the option key while dragging to the library window.

  • When I use Home sharing, I can see the library I want to copy, but when I highlight the library, the import button does not show up. Also, it will not let me drop and drag. How do I get music from one computer to the other computer?

    When I use Home Sharing, I can see the library I want to copy under Shared, but I can't get it save on the computer under the regular library. I go to edit and "select all" but there is no import button that is in the right hand corner. Also, it will not let me click and drag the music. How do I get it from one computer to the other?

    Since both computers are connected via the network, you could simply copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from one computer to another via the network.
    If both computers are running Windows, use the Easy File Transfer Utility built into Windows to move iTunes and all other user media/data.

    If the above option is too much work you may want to look into iRip which you can find information on it at http://thelittleappfactory.com/irip/ there are other software out there starting from free and going up in price, but iRip has a free demo to recover 100 tracks.

  • Can you sync music from one iPod to another?

    Both are the same model of iPods, but they came from two different computers. They have different libraries. I was wondering if you could transfer songs from one iPod to the other iPod. None of the songs i want to transfer are in the computer's library. The songs are from seperate computers.
    I have a PC, in case that hepls any.

    No it isn't possible to transfer music from one iPod directly to another. The music needs to be in an iTunes library in order to transfer it to an iPod.
    You said the songs came from two different computers and they have different libraries. Then you said +"None of the songs i want to transfer are in the computer's library."+ which seems to contradict what you said originally.
    Care to elaborate?
