How can I copy music from my old ipod to my new one??

How can I copy music from my old ipod to my new one?? They are not on my computer because it is also new, and the old one is not working anymore. Is there a way to do this without having to import the music from the cds again??

HT1386 How do I copy music from an old iPod? Why do you have to make things so difficult? These are my files that I paid for but once I put them on your devices, I no longer have control over them. I've wasted so much time on these stupid problems.

I've wasted so much time on these stupid problems. I used to be able to do this until you "improved" things.

Thanks, Deggie. I thought Apple would see my feedback. I would just like to know if there is a simple way to copy just a few music files from an old iPod. I saw instructions on how to copy all of them from the iPod but it was complicated and I really didn't want to copy all the songs. I guess I could delete all the songs but the ones I want to copy then go through that process again. Do you know how to back up music to my computer? I don't want to have to go through this again and possibly lose music.

Restoring the new iPod from the backup of your old iPod will result in the new iPod being the same as the old iPod except that you will have to reenter keychain items like passwords since keychain items are only restored to the same unless you use an encrypted backup.

You have to transfer the music from the old iPod to iTunes and then sync it to the new iPod.

My overall objective is to copy my current playlist onto my new Ipod Classic. I really didn't want to have to set up my playlists over again. I cracked my Old Skool Original Ipod at the gym this weekend, so I'm in mourining for sure:{
Again some of my songs are on my Ipod only, so what should I do to transfer these to my new Ipod? Any help to in adding my data to the new Ipod will be much appreciated!
Thank you

In order to sync the songs from your older iPod to your newer one, you'll need to copy them from your older iPod back to your iTunes library. See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to copy content from your iPod back to your PC.

You will need to do it using a third-party utility such as Phone to PC. Also, see:

Once you have successfully done that you can go ahead and choose Erase and Sync when you plug your iPod in.

I have an older Ipod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new Ipod Touch and cannot be updated. Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one?

I have an older iPod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new iPod Touch and Itunes cannot be updated. Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one? It is my understanding that the music cannot be saved onto my new iTunes, b/c I did not have iCloud. I have over 2,000 songs I just cannot part with. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help some how!! THANKS!

I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

You can't without putting it on iTunes first, which is done by using the Transfer Purchases command in the File menu.

How do I get music from my old ipod to new one please ?

I have tried bbut cannot seem to get music from my old ipod to my new ipod. I lost old one long ago and recently found it and much loved n' missed songs . I since replaced pc and saved no music . I tried connecting both ipods to my laptop but no luck getting songs from old to new !! Any help would be greattly appreciated pelase n' thank you :-)

Hi Lea64!
If your music was ripped from CDs, you will need to re-rip it to your iTunes library on your new computer. But if you bought your music from iTunes, they are still in iCloud, and you can redownload them at no cost. Sign in to the iTunes Store on your computer, then click on "Purchased" on the list on the right hand side. You'll see everything you have ever bought from iTunes in there, and anything that's not currently on your computer will have a little cloud with a downward pointing arrow in it. Click on the cloud symbol next to whatever you want to download, and it will download to your computer. Plug in your iPod and synch it, and you're done. Hope this helps!
