Anyway to transfer songs from Ipod to new mac computer?

Recently my p.o.s. dell laptop decided to completely break down requiring me to get a new harddrive, so consequently my Itunes library was lost. Deciding I had had enough with dell I purchased a G4 powerbook. I am frantic because I thought I could just plug in my ipod and transfer my music to the Itunes on my new computer. However, It says my only option is to reconfigure my ipod to the library on my new computer which obviously has NO MUSIC... I am crossing my fingures there is a way around this... Please help m!

  • Transfer Songs from Ipod to New Computer and New Itunes Installation

    Hi,
    I want to transfer songs on my Ipod to a new installation of Itunes on a new computer. I get a message that my Ipod is synced to another library and that I can only be synced to one library and that my ipod will be erased and synced to the currently libary. The problem is my current library is empty since it's a new itunes installtion and I don't want to erase my ipod and delete all my songs.
    So how do I transfer songs from my ipod to the new itunes installation on my new computer?
    Thanks for any replies.

    I think I've read in a post before that you can't do it that way. That you can only transfer music from the computer to the iPod, and not the other way around. I believe they suggested backing up your library (to disk, I guess) and installing it on the new computer. Something like that. It seems silly that the transfer only works one way, but there you are.

  • Transferring songs from Ipod to new mac

    I recently purchased a new mac after my dell computer crashed. As a result of this the only source I have for my 1000+ songs is my ipod touch. I have already gone to my preferences and set it so my ipod does not sync automatically and did the same for my sister and her new dell laptop. I was able to connect her ipod to her computer and transfer all of her purchased items with no problem but now am unsure on how to transfer the rest? Also on my own computer when I plug my ipod in, it seems that the computer is not detecting the connection as it won't let my click the 'Transfer Purchases From Ipod' button. Also my ipod does not show up on the left side on my itunes underneath the 'Devices.' Anybody know how to fix this? Thanks!

  • Bought new computer, Won't let me transfer songs from Ipod to new computer?

    Is this possible? I have several hundred songs on my Ipod/other computer (desktop). I bought a new Dell laptop and I was hoping I could transfer all the songs on my new computer. It did let me transfer the songs that were purchsed through Itunes but not the others that I downloaded from CD's. When I connect the Ipod to the new computer it shows no songs on it.
    Can I just connect my laptop to my desktop and tranfer songs or is there a way to trasfer the songs from the Ipod to the new laptop?

    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. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    TuneJack Windows Only
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iGadget Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    SharePod Windows Only
    iRepo Mac and Windows
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows
    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

  • Is it possible to transfer songs from ipod to new computer?

    I recently bought a new computer and had put the itunes from my old computer onto a hard drive to transfer it over, however it didn't transfer all my songs. Those songs are still on my ipod and I would like to know if it is possible to transfer them from my ipod onto my new computer? PLEASE HELP!!

    iTunes will only let you copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a 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:

  • How do you transfer songs from ipod to new laptop when old one is broken?

    Can anyone help?
    My old laptop broke recently and i want to transfer all my songs from my ipod to my new laptop. Does anyone know how to do this? I tried just connecting my ipod to the computer but it didnt work.
    Thanks!

    As long as you didn't let the new computer wipe out your iPod...

    Otherwise if you still have the dead laptop it may be possible to extract the drive and hook it up in an external drive bay. I've recovered data for a number of friends and colleagues this way.

  • Want to transfer songs from Ipod to new computer

    I want to transfer my songs from my Ipod to another computer but Itunes on the new computer wants to erase my Ipod first. How do I do this? I hate the idea of all my songs being on just one computer. What if the thing starts smoking. I'd hate to have to re-collect over 1000 songs.

  • Computer died - anyway to get songs from ipod to new computer

    My computer died - the hard disk crashed and we have no access to any data on the computer. We have about 250 songs on the ipod - and have downloaded itunes on a new computer. The songs on the ipod are both songs that were purchased from itunes as well as songs from our personal CD collection.
    Is there any way to get songs from the ipod to the new computer?

    You can try a couple of third party software packages to sync from your Ipod back to your Windoze installation of Itunes. I've provided some links for you here:

    If these links don't work for you, just google IPOD to PC and you'll get the information to come up. I think these 3rd party conduits only run about $20. (Well worth the investment.) Good luck!

  • How to transfer music from ipod to new mac

    i cant figure out how to transfer music from my phone to my new mac

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

I didn't have my songs backed up (bad me)...do I want to transfer my purchased songs? can I get my IPod songs back on my computer?
    Please help!!

    Yes you can stop iTunes from auto opening. With your iPod connected go to the "Main" menu of the iPod on iTunes.
    Remove the check mark in the first box shown.
