Can't get audio content off iPod onto MacBook iTunes

Just did some recording with the iPod using an attached microphone. When I open iTunes, I can see the directory with the audio recordings (in Voice Memos directory on the iPod) and even listen to them, but I can't get them to transfer to my music libary on my Macbook iTunes. I need those recordings to insert into iMovie. Try dragging then to iMovie and that didn't work either.

Shooting in the dark here, but a program like Senuti may help.
Or there is a manual method of moving content from iPod to computer described here.

I suspect what you are trying to do is have the music that is in your iPod move into your new computer.
This is not allowed by Apple as it would lead to people copying other people's iPods instead of buying the music.
That being said, think of the iPod as an external hard disk drive and "manage" the files and folders as you see fit.
Your applications, those on your iPod, are also registered at the Apple Store. When you authorize your new install of iTunes and sync your iPod, the applications will return to both places... on your computer and in your iPod.
If this in an iPod you purchased with music already on it, just enjoy the thing and read the manual about digital rights management.
I'm sorry if this is not what you wanted to hear. Moving the music from an iPod to a computer is not supported in the iTunes program.

Can't get photo's off iPod colour

Hi, can anyone help please?
I have a 20gb colour iPod and can't get my photos OFF! When I connect it and iTunes opens up it recognises the songs I have but not the photo's. This is the same when checking the "settings" and "about" (Photos 0)on the iPod. I can view the photo's no problem on the iPod.
I have around 150 photos from my holiday and downloaded them directly from my digital camera to iPod via the camera connector

Paul,
next time you connect your iPod, switch the "hard disc use" on the iPod preferences in iTunes on. Then you might be able to copy them from the folder. If this doesn't work, search for some addons that enables you to copy data from your iPod back to the computer. You can find them here http://www.ipodsoft.com/ and here http://www.ilounge.com/index.php
Hope this helps!

Can't get corrupted song off ipod

Hello! I've run into a problem with my ipod touch - there is a corrupted song that I cannot take off- I've tried almost everything! It's a duplicate (there are two of the same song in the list, and the corrupted one doesn't play at all). Not that big of a deal, but it's frustrating because there's no way to get rid of it. In iTunes, it does not show up on the list of songs "On This Ipod". Since I have iOS 6, there's no way to manually delete it. I even tried going into the settings and erasing all my music from the ipod, and even then it was still there (only one left). I suppose completely resetting the ipod would get rid of the song, but I'd really rather not do that. Any ideas?
Thank you so much!
(also, I haven't gotten a chance to update to 6.1 yet. Would that help at all?)

Can't get album art on ipod classic since iTunes 9

Hi there,
I have an 80GB iPod and since iTunes 9 i've had artwork issues.
On the first sync i did since iTunes 9 the artwork got mixed up on many songs (i.e. while playing one song it would show the album art for a different song on the ipod).
So I re-formatted the iPod and re-synched everything to it (which took hours since I have almost all 80GB used). Now there is no artwork at all on the iPod and I can't figure out how to get it back! I see no option anywhere saying to sync album art as well as music, and I swear I saw it in a previous iTunes.
The artwork is definitely in iTunes and definitely written into the ID3 tags of the songs so I'm not sure how to fix this, any ideas?
Thank you!

same experience here, looks like itunes 9 doesn't edit id3 tags for album artwork coz it has a separate cache or folders where artworks of the songs are stored. so when i play an mp3 in itunes it shows that it has an album artwork but it wont show up when i use to play the same file via wmp or winamp. as of now, the work around that i know of is to manually add the album artwork in ur ipod via itunes.

How can I get songs from my iPod onto my computer?

I had to re-install windows on my computer about a week ago. I was under the impression that I could get my music and playlists back just by pluging my iPod into my computer and then i thought the ipod would snyc with itunes and put all of my music back onto the computer along with my playlists. However, i can't seem to get this to work... any help? I think i've heard of ways to just rip the music off, but what i would really like are the playlists that i had as well...

If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows. The procedure is a bit involved but if you're interested it's posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

New computer but original ipod-how do I get the stuff off ipod onto itunes?

I have had my ipod touch for about 6 months, and have my music and apps on it. Unfortunately the computer has had to have new hard drive etc, how do I get itunes onto the computer and then get my stuff onto ipod on there? Do I just plug it in? I dont want to try and then lose all my stuff?
Thank you for any help!

Where is your backup copy? It is basic to always maintain a backup copy of all important info/music/pics/docs/etc.
Just use your backup copy to put everything back on the computer.
The music sync to ipod touch is one way - computer to ipod. The exception being itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
This will transfer itunes purchases ( make sure your computer is authorized and signed into your account).
The ipod touch will sync to one computer/library. When you sync your ipod to another, it will erase the content of the ipod, then replace with content from the new hard drive.

Can't get my music from ipod onto new computer?

So my iPod has been synced to our desktop, and I have bought some music from my ipod that is not on the desktop. But now i have a new computer and i want my music from my ipod, not the desktop, on the itunes on the new computer, but transfer purchases isn't working. So.. is there a way to transfer from the ipod on to the new itunes? Or can someone at the genius bar do that for me?
-Thanks

First of, in iTunes, select "Store" in the menu and authorize the computer.
Then, when your iPhone is connected right click on it and select "Transfer Purchases", this should move your content from your iPhone to your computer.

Getting photos back off iPod onto computer

My hard drive in my G5 went bad but the good news is all my photos (2800+) are backed up on my iPod.
My fear is that when I connect the ipod to another computer, the iPod will be erased and I will loose everything. What is the best way to do this?

I want to put all my music onto an external hard drive. But I can't get it to put music on my itunes. The music list is completely empty and so is my IPOD.

You say the music is not on the external HD, the music list (iTunes?) is empty, and it is not on the iPOd. Then where is the music you want to move to the external HD?

Can't get some songs off my ipod!!

For some reason I can't get some songs off my old ipod. recently I lost all my songs on my new ipod so I went to my old ipod followed the steps of extracting files from ipod to itunes and come to find out that some songs didn't go into itunes. The files I want were downloaded using imesh and they are mp3 format. For some reason when I go into my computer and open my ipod's music folder the songs are not there yet they have to be because I can see and play them on itunes when I connect the old ipod.But I can see one of the files in a folder except that one file is really the entire album. It's about 13 songs and I can't seem to seperate them. So is there anyway to directly transfer all files from the ipod to itunes instead of doing the copy folder steps as described in apple's "transferring music guide"? Also I tried consilidating library and that didn't work either.
