Can I restore Shuffle without losing all music?

I recently had to do an erase and install of my G3 PowerBook. Even though I thought I'd backed up all music on an external drive, it doesn't seem to be there. Now my Shuffle isn't working and apparently needs to be reset. I've got a lot of music on it and can't don't want to lose it all. Is there anything I can do?

Will it not work for you because you're still running Jaguar? If so, I doubt that any of the others (iPodRip excepted, I think) will work either.
As for iPodRip, it used to have some sort of a Jaguar capability; others have had luck with it although I never had a reason to try it. You might give that a look.

  • I get "iPad disabled" message. Can I restore it without losing all my data? Can I restore it from a friend's iTunes account without messing up his account? If so, how?

    My iPad turned on while it was in my suitcase and began playing through my iTunes music. I turned it off and can no longer turn it back on. I get a message "iPad disabled." How can I restore it without losing my data?  I'm using a friend's computer and am particularly concerned not to mess up his data (including his iTunes account).

    You won't lose data, if you've been backing up your ipad on a regular basis.

  • How can i transfer my ipod to my new itunes without losing all music

    my computer crashed and now all i have is my cousins and i need to know how to convert my music onto her new itunes, hopefully without losing all my music. if thats possible, so there is no way i can go back to my old itunes, her computer is the only itunes i will be able to use. how can i transferr my ipod touch to her computer without losing all data???

    Welcome to the discussion,
    Create a new user in windows to keep your iTunes library separate and log in. Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
    This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
    Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
    The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.

    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • Can I uninstall iTunes without losing all my music?

    When trying to sync my iPod touch with my computer, I'm encountering an error in iTunes that tells me that the "Software for the iPhone is not installed..." and that I need to uninstall iTunes and then reinstall it.
    That's all well and good, however both methods of backing up your music that are listed on Apple's support site have not worked for me. I can't get the CD's to burn and trying to copy the music over using the iPod itself was a total failure.
    I've got iTunes on another computer and it recognizes the Touch just fine. It's the iTunes on the main computer with all the music that's giving me problems.
    So, is there any way to uninstall, then reinstall, iTunes on my computer without losing the music?
    Can I make a back up folder or something like that?

    i had the same problem but it was fix
    try to open the command prompt as administrator an write 'netsh winsock reset', sometimes don't work but lets try it

  • How can I uninstall yosemite without losing all my stuff?

    I just installed Yosemite tonight and I've realized that I absolutely hate it. Not only does it look horrible, but my computer is super laggy, wont load anything but firefox, and for a while it completely locked me out of my computer. I need my computer for work and school so this is absolutely not acceptable. I really just want to go back to mavericks, however I don't have an external hard drive or have time machine. How can I go back to mavericks without losing all my stuff?

    Unless your machine shipped with Mavericks or, if not, you saved a copy of the Mavericks install app, you're screwed. Without a bootable backup/clone or TM backup of your previously good Mavericks installation, there's no way to get from here to there; unless you know someone that kept the Mavericks installer.

  • Hi, my old laptop has died, and I need to set up my ipod on my new one, can I do this without losing all the music on it, as some of them are from  old cd's I no longer have??

    Hi, my laptop died recently, and I have purchased a new one, I want to connect my ipod to it to synch to Itunes but I don't want to lose everything on it, as some are cd's I no longer have, is there a way of synching without losing everything x

    Your iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time.  It will recognize the iTunes library on the new PC as a new library.  If you sync the iPod with this new library, all content will be erased from the iPod and replaced with what is in the new library.  So what you will want to do is copy everything from the iPod to your new iTunes library on your PC first.
    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    Reset time. Press and hold both the power and home buttons for 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds for your iPad to start on it's own.
