Any ideas on a 3rd party software to transfer music from ipod back to MBP?

Hi guys, while trying to transfer my music from an extrnal hard drive on to MBP I deleted them all. very silly but hey!
I heard that it is possible to transfer music back from your ipod to Itunes.. These are my own music files and not infringing any copyright issues..Thanks in advance for your help...

For years now I've been using iPod.iTunes available here:
http://www.crispsofties.com/
It's not the cheapest nor the easiest to use sometimes but does things most others do not, including preserving your ratings, last played, etc. when transfering, doing a good if not perfect job of not duplicating songs already in your library, transfering playlists and smart playlists, and especially working in both directions.
The developer stands behind the program and is very responsive to requests for help or added features. It works with videos and Podcasts, too.

  • HT1338 i have about 88,000 songs in my music library, some are duplicates. Does anyone know of any Apple Product or 3rd party software that will identify and remove duplicates.

    I have about 88,000 songs in my music library, some are duplicates. Does anyone know of any Apple Product or 3rd party software that will identify and remove duplicates.

    Backup your music to an external source before doing this, just in case you delete the originals by accident.
    iTunes will show you the duplicates.  But I recommend tagging their comments or another field once selecting them to ensure you don't accidentally delete both the original and duplicate.  You can always select all of them and change all their comment tags at once.  Once you've done that, stop showing duplications, and then sort by the comment field.  This will allow you to determine whether only the duplicates were shown in the show duplicates, or the originals.  If you see any without comments, then you can go ahead and delete the duplicates.

  • 3rd party software to sync notes for iPod touch?

    Does anyone know of a 3rd party software that will sync notes for the iPod touch? I've done a search and can't find anything. There is one called iNote but that isn't for the touch.
    Thanks

    There is one called iNote but that isn't for the touch.
    iNote works fine on the iPod touch. What makes you think it doesn't?

  • Are there any apps that I can transfer music from ipod to itunes?

    I lost my songs on itunes! Fortunantly, I have them all on my iPod touch. I been browsing around and there are programs that you have to pay for to transfer songs from ipod to computer/itunes. Does anyone know of free apps to do so, i really dont feel like paying for an app im gonna use once. Any help would be super! Thanks

    Did you look at the programs mentioned here  http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0 to see if someone offers a trail version?
    Music you bought in iTunes can be copied by using "transfer purchases" from the iTunes menu.

  • Transfer music from ipod 3rd gen to 4th gen

    I just brought an IPod Touch 4th generation and wanted to transfer music from my IPod 3rd generation.

    You need to transfer purchases from the 3G to you syncing computer and sync the 4G with that computer.  If you want other stuff to transfer to the 4G, restore the 4G from the backup of the 3G.

  • Any way to get music from ipod back into library after hard drive crash?

    I just survived and am recovering from a hard drive crash. For some reason, on my backup, I only retained about 500 of my 2500 songs in my library. All of my music is intact on the ipod however. Is there any way at all to resolve this issue and get the music from the ipod into the libary, or in the alternative, any way to back up the stuff on the ipod? Thanks.

    Connect your iPod to your 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 and iPhone
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. 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
    The transfer of content from 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:
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    SharePod Windows Only
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    Floola Mac & Windows
    iGadget Mac & Windows (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 - Windows version only)
    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.

  • Software to retrieve music from iPod to computer

    Hello. I have one new iPod (photo version) which is working properly. I also have an older model, which is mostly not working,though once in a while, I try again and it seems to sputter and lets me recharge and then dies again.
    I have lost my WHOLE iTunes (another problem, not trying to address this anymore), and since I have about 50% of my music on these two iPods, I would like to find out about the rescue software I have heard about, which enables one to retrieve the music FROM the iPod, back to my Mac desktop. If there is any other solution, I am all ears, but mainly I am looking to know where and how I can get the software to rescue my music from the iPod.
    Hope this is clear! Many thanks in advance for your help!
    Amy

    Amy
    Do a Google search for ripping music from an IPOD. I had to do it once when my Rev A Imac was returned with multiple failures. The music was on my Ipod and I wanted it back on my new rev B Imac. Worked out just fine!
    As long as you own the cd, and it is not purchased d/l music...you have the right under the fair use act, to copy FOR YOUR OWN PERSONAL USE! I do not believe this would violate any Apple Rules either, but check to make sure!

  • How do I transfer music from ipod to computer manually without downloading software?

    OK, I've tried everything, looked everywhere, and from what I've looked up, it seems itunes intentionally makes it next to impossible to do it, but there was this one time, where I accessed my kindle fire music folder, and dragged and dropped the music into there and it transferred to the kindle fire.  Then from there I would transfer the kindle music to itunes.  But now it's not working?  What happened?  I accessed the kindle music folder, and couldn't transfer the songs from my ipod to there like usual.  What happened?  And is there ANY other way i can transfer ipod touch songs to my computer, without downloading software?  I've tried looking for "ipod control" folder like people usually tell me to do, but it's not there, even if I click show hidden files and folders. Please help, emphasis on explanation as to why my ipod wont transfer music to my kindle's music folder anymore.  IT WORKED BEFORE.THANK YOU FOR ALL KIND REPLIES.  AND NO, THE MUSIC WAS NOT PURCHASED ON ITUNES SO I CAN'T TRANSFER IT THAT WAY.

    Oh, right, I know what you're saying. That *****, itunes,,, do better!  There is no reason why we shouldn't be able to transfer our music directly to our computer!  Regardless of copyright crap!  Wow, tha *****. Well, thanks again lassssssssssssssssssssssssssss, you're a big help

  • Any way to transfer music from iPod to iTunes

    I had to get new laptop and lost all my music from the iTunes I had on the previous lap top. Is there a way to transfer music from iPod to iTunes ?

    Or you can do it the cheap way...
    In the options screens, check "Enable Disk Use." Your ipod should then show up in your My Computer as a new drive.
    In My Computer, go to TOOLS>FOLDER OPTIONS...>View [tab] and under "Hidden files and folders," choose to "Show hidden files and folders"
    A new folder will pop up in My Computer's Ipod Drive letter called "Control" or something like that. You should be able to dig around in there and find a bunch of mp3s randomly named... Those represent your music files. Drag all the folders that have your music in it to the new computer's harddrive.
    Now go into iTunes, "add Folder to Library," Choose the folder that you drug from your iPod and iTunes will import all your music as if nothing happened. Synch it up and it will transfer all this "new music" to your iPod, replacing the old music with the "new" stuff. You'll see... It's like nothing ever happened.
    Please note that you'll lose your ratings and playlists... But honestly... Who cares??
    Happy transferring!

  • HT4962 Any ideas how to get my software updated on my IPOD 3rd Generation when my computer times out?  I have tried several times and it appears to take 30 plus hours. How Frustrating, not to mention the kids are too!

    If the iTunes purchases are not in your iTunes library you can redownload them by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If you restore from backup, not that synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup and thus if those items are not in the iTunes library they can't be restored to the iPod during the latter part of the restore process.

  • I have a PVR which supports DLNA connected to my home network.  I want to access files on my MacBook from the PVR.  I understand that my MacBook doesn't support DLNA. Is there any 3rd party  software that I can install on my MacBook to provide DLNA?

    Hi,
    Can anyone help me please.
    I have a Personal Video Recorder (Humax HDR-1010S), which supports DLNA, connected to my home network via Wi-Fi. 
    I want to play music from iTunes and view photos from iPhoto from my MacBook (which is also connected to the home network) via the PVR / TV / Home Cinema sound system.  I understand that my MacBook (running OS X Mavericks) doesn't support DLNA server.
    Is there any 3rd party  software that I can install on my MacBook to provide DLNA server?
    Thanks,

    My recollection is that the iPhoto library has some fairly robust protections to prevent inadvertent or even deliberate changes being made that might have unwanted consequences. I'll take alook at my setup and let you know if I can see anything that might help you. Even if you get Serviio to "see" the iPhoto library, it almost ceratinly won't show the album structure and names. What I did is to export each iPhoto album to a standard folder with the appropriate folder name. These I keep on an external backup disc and Serviio can see these without trouble.

  • 3rd party software tools to automate Weblogic deployments/release process

    Folks,
    I'm currently evaluating few 3rd party software tools to automate Weblogic deployments/release process - software release automation.
    if someone has used products from Xepialabs , UC4 or Urbandeploy etc - can you advise how effective these are please?..
    We have around 25+ enterprise level release environments based on Oracle weblogic on solaris and it is manual deployments via wlst scripts etc.
    Also any ideas/suggestion on opensource projects would be great as well.
    I will be really grateful if you can respond.

    Why not use the CLI and do it that way? i don't know it AppleScript hooks into the terminal and/or can run terminal commands but that may be worth looking into as well.
    I would think that it would be a good idea to erase all your drives in the RAID at once and start fresh. Why not back up the internal to a pair of RAIDED external FW800 drives, add the second drive in the Mac, make the internal RAID by formatting both drives and then copy the external RAID back to the internal RAID? Oops, I know, now we have a step 4.
    Nobody from Apple ever comments here. We are all users, just like yourself, that just want to help.

  • Can't install 3rd party software

    I've just done an archive and install of Tiger on my G4 with a NewerTech 2gig CPU.
    I was able to download and install the update to 10.4.10 without problem. However, now when I try to install anything else, I get the authenticate admin window but it just opens, then snaps closed. I don't have time to put in my password. I tried DiskWarrior and trashing the pref files for system pref and finder. I've also run Cocktail. I've run out of ideas. Any help would be appreciated.

    I had VirusBarrier X4 installed before I did the archive and install. I didn't choose save/transfer my personal setting when I did the install. So, VirusBarrier shows up in the application folder but since I can't install any 3rd party software I haven't reinstalled it. I tried to uninstall it but the uninstaller can't find that it's been installed, as I suspected it would, but took a chance.
