Can I transfer my itunes library from my ipod to my new imac?  If so how is it done?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Of course. The best would be to transfer the iTunes library from your old Mac or PC to the new Mac, so you will keep everything and you won't have to use any third-party app.
Anyway, if you don't have access to the old PC or Mac, you can transfer songs from the iPod to your Mac. If you purchased all the songs on the iTunes Store, just open iTunes, connect the iPod and transfer the songs. If you are using an iPod touch, you will lose everything if you sync it with iTunes on the new iMac.
Another method is to use an app like Senuti to transfer the songs to iTunes, being a safer way to transfer them if you aren't sure that you will lose your songs

    how can i transfer my itunes library from my ipod to a new laptop

    3 things you need to transfer music from iPod to itunes: iPod, computer, iTunes.
    step 1 connect your ipod to your computer via the white USB cable.
    step 2 open My Computer, or just Computer from the start menu and look for the ipod drive. It should be in the (F:) drive. You will see the ipod logo in the listing of disk drives.
    step 3 Now you should have a new folder called ipod_control. Open that folder up and you should see the following: Calendar, Contacts, ipod_control, notes, photos, ect. If you are trying to save all of your music then the ipod_control folder is the only one you need to worry about.
    step 3 Open the ipod_control folder then open the music folder. Copy each one of those folders (should look similar to these: F00, F01 ...) onto your computer.
    step 3 Open itunes and insert the new folder you created on your computer's desktop into: library ---> Music

  • My mac hard drive crashed. Can I restore my iTunes library from my iPod to my new hard drive?

    My mac hard drive crashed, and had to be replaced. Can I restore my iTunes library from my iPod to my new hard drive? About 2500 songs, some from iTunes store, most from other online sources or my own CDs.

    To restore non-purchased music on the iTunes Store to iTunes from the iPod, you need a third-party application as Senuti > http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/ You can use others, but this has worked perfectly for me

  • HT4527 How can I transfer my iTunes library from my iPad to my new computer?

    My hard drive crashed without recent backup and I would like to transfer my iTunes library from my iPad to the new hard drive. Some tunes transferred and some didn't. Thanks.

    Non-iTunes purchases cannot be transferred from an iDevice to computer via iTunes.
    The simplest solution is to simply move the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.  Why anyone would choose to make life more difficult by screwing around with transferring purchases from an iDevice and using 3rd party software to extract non-iTunes purchases is beyond me. 
    IF for some reason there is no backup of the old computer and/or the old computer is no longer accessible, then try google for solutions.
    Do yourself a favor going forward, backup your media and other important data.

  • My PC died. How can I reform my iTunes library from my iPod on a new PC?

    I have two separate iTunes libraries. Jazz and Pop are on a Mac Based iPod and Classical on a Windows based one. My old PC failed and I can't get at the hard drive. I have the music from the iTunes library on my iPod. How do I transfer this into iTunes on a new PC?  

    Preliminary conditions:
    Through settings, you must log the Apple TV in with your iCloud account.
    In iTunes, choose Advanced > Turn on Home Sharing from the menu bar.
    The Apple TV and your computer must be connect to the same network.
    The Apple TV is sold in many different countries. However, iTunes is discriminately serviced. Whereas in the United States, movies and musics are sold in their entirety, there is no such services in Korea ― only app purchases. If your iCloud (or Apple) acount falls into the latter category, and you login to the Apple TV with that account, Apple TV will automatically convert its systems to the similar limitations.
    Here's what happens when I login with my U.S. account to the Apple TV.
    But when I login with my Korean account, theres only the 'Computers' and 'Settings' menu.
