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!

  • Is there a way to transfer music from ipod to itunes?

    I accidently deleted songs in library, but i still have it on the ipod...is there anyway i can get the songs back from my ipod to itunes?

    For windows only
    1) If Itunes is already installed disk use may need to enabled so you can see the Ipod in my computer. Itunes hides your ipod from windows otherwise.
    2) Make sure you can view hidden files. In MY computer go to tools>folder options>view>show hidden files and folders.
    3) Windows should see the ipod and your music should be on your ipod in several hidden folders. To be safe I would copy it all to say your desktop.
    4) Install Itunes http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and the Ipod updater http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/ (if you don't already have it installed)
    After that drag the copied folder to Itunes (drag and drop or in Itunes (File>add folder to library)
    You may need to authorise your new computer by playing it in the library first.

  • Is there any way to transfer music from the old iTunes to iPhone 5S?

    I am still using my old macbook, version 10.6.?? (forgotten), I don't intend to upgrade the OS X, since everything is working fine. So the iTunes in it is also the older version, since my software doesn't support the new version of iTunes. And thus, I can't get my music into the iPhone 5S that I've just bought. Any kind souls that can help me with this?

    Update to Mac OS X 10.6.8 and iTunes 11.1.3.

  • Is there any way to transfer photos from ipod touch (2nd generation

    Is there any way to transfer photos from ipod touch (2nd generation & OS is 4.2.1) to PC? I am struggling a lot. The OS cannot be upgradable beyond 4.2.1
    I am wondering if there could be many other ways to transfer the photos like:
    1. with the help of any android app
    2. ipod touch to iphone/ipod latest version
    3. any 3rd party free softwares (there are paid 3rd party softwares but I dont want to invest)
    I did try some of the options:
    1. I could emailed only 6 photos in one email (I have almost 800 photos and would be time consuming.
    2. I'm trying to access my google account on my ipod but it keeps coming up with "oops! your browser seems to have cookies disabled..." My cookies are not disabled. Safari is the only browser for ipod touch and could not be able to installed not only any new browser but also any iphone apps. Updates for the existing apps not possible at all. So this option of uploading the photos on google drive is ruled out.
    Anybody is there to help me out? Sorry for such a long inventory.
    Thank you!

    If they are in the iPod' Saved Photos album then:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    If they were synced to the iPod you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView

  • How can I transfer music from iPod to iTunes?

    All of the music on my iPod nano is in my ex-husband's iTunes on a Mac. Now have a Windows PC and want to transfer music from iPod to iTunes. Computer says 'Need to Format disk in Drive E'. Will this lose everything? Not sure what the best way is to do everything but haven't got any way of backing up my iPod at present. Thank you!

    any itunes purchased music can be transferred from phone to pc via hitting the "transfer purchases" option when u right click on the phone under devices in itunes on the computer when it is plugged in. any non-itunes purchased music is stuck on the phone and cannot be transferred to the computer. u will have to load it onto the computer from the original source or from the old computer.

  • Any way to transfer songs from iPhone TO iTunes on MacBook Pro?

    I'm an idiot.  I'm just going to say that up front.  I feel that's fair for all who venture here.
    I've had a terrible time with an update..and I wasn't able to get iTunes to acknowledge/recognize my iPhone or iPod once I ran and installed the current update.  While trying to get my iPhone/iPod to be recognized, I did a lot of removing/uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes.  During this mess.....I somehow DELETED MY ENTIRE iTunes LIBRARY!!!  The whole thing.  I have no idea how.
    I thought I had been backing up....and thought I had Time Machine so I was safe.  I was wrong.  I won't even ask about Time Machine here....I've already disclosed I'm an idiot. 
    I am finally able to get iTunes to acknowledge my iPhone.  Thank goodness.  But, now......I have Songs and Playlists on my iPhone that aren't on iTunes.

  • Is there ANY way to transfer songs from ipod to library???

    I have an Ipod mini, and I have received about 200 songs from 3 or 4 of my friends libraries, but now I can't put those songs in MY library. I really want to burn some of them onto cd's etc etc in case my ipod goes down, but the songs need to be from your LIBRARY. Is there ANY way to do this (trick, program, accessory, etc??)
    If not, is there any way to burn songs from ipod to a cd?? I want to get a support together in case my computer or ipod break. Thank you!!

    how do i transfer muusic from ipod to itunes library

    You've posted to the iTunes Match forum which your question is not related to. However, these User Tips will help you:
    Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive
    For the future, keep in mind that an iPod is not a backup/storage device. It is designed to be strictly a playback device. It is up to you to backup your personal data, including music, to a local, external HDD.

  • 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.

  • Is there any way to transfer music from a library to an Apple ID?

    A couple of months ago, my Apple ID was hacked. I had to get a new one because whoever hacked it changed the password and the email and it didn't even show up in Apple's database when I called them. My problem is that I have A LOT of songs that I bought with my old ID. If anything happens to my computer, I dont want to lose all of them. Is there any way to transfer at least the PURCHASED songs in my library to my new ID? I don't know if the Apple guy had any idea what I meant when I asked him this back when it all happened, but he said there was and I haven't been able to find it...

    Back up the purchases.

  • Can I transfer music from ipod into itunes?

    I know I'm probably clutching at straws here but thought I'd give it a try and throw the question out there! Stupidly I let my system be rebooted with the original operating system discs without backing up my itunes!! Is there any chance of transferring my music back using my ipod?? Thanks in advance

    Be very careful when connecting an iPod full of music to an empty iTunes library.There is very real risk of permanently losing all the music.
    To prevent auto sync, before you connect the iPod go to iTunes/preferences and select "devices", then select "disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods".
    An alternative method is to connect the iPod whilst holding down the 'Command + Option' keys and do not let them go until your iPod appears in iTunes.
    If you see a message that your iPod is associated with a different library and asks if you want to link to a new one, make sure you press "Cancel".
    If you should click on "Erase and Sync" will erase all the content currently on your iPod and it will be replaced with the content of the iTunes library you just connected to.
    When you've pressed cancel your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list under "devices" and allow you to change the update setting to manage the iPod content manually, and that will let you use your iPod for the time being without the risk of accidentally erasing the contents.
    Then do any of the following to transfer your music from iPod back to the computer/iTunes.
    Try iPodDisk.
    Similar programs are Expod, Yamipod, Senuti and Music Rescue.
    If you want to retrieve playlists, iPodRip has the feature enabling you to reconstruct them.

  • Transfer music from Ipod to Itunes on new Toshiba laptop

    I have purchased a new Toshiba laptop and installed Itunes. I have all my music on my Iphone 4. Can I directly move my music from Iphone to Itunes library on new laptop. The music was mainly imported from my CD collection - It was imported to Itunes on my old PC and then synched to Iphone from old PC. Unfortunately old PC has died without a back-up. Thus I need to transfer music from Iphone directly to Itunes on new laptop.

    You need to copy your iTunes from your Old computer or its Backup to your New computer...
