Copying ipod music into my itunes library

I recently lost everything on my computer and had to get a new one. I reloaded my ipod information and would like to edit the music that I currently have in my ipod. How do I do this? Do I need to copy it to my new computer's itunes library? If so, please tell me how. I can select the music, but am unable to drag it into the existing itunes library. Do I need to save it to a disc first? If so, how do I do that?

there are many programs out there that will take the information on your ipod and transfer it onto your new computer.. go to www.versiontracker.com

  • How do I put all my iPod songs into my iTunes library?

    I got my iPod in October, and at the time I didn't own a computer. I used my dad's computer to put songs from my CDs onto my iPod.
    Today I finally bought my own laptop, a Mac iBook. I'm trying to load all my iPod songs into my iTunes, but I can't figure out how.
    Thanks for any help!

    Hello Colleen,
    The transfer of music is designed to be one way by default - from iTunes to iPod. However, there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the files from your iPod. This is just a selection but I would recommend Senuti, I have used it myself and it's very user friendly.
    Senuti Mac Only
    iPodRip Mac Only
    YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
    PodUtil Mac and Windows Versions
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions

    Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these and pick one you are happy with, they are generally quite straightforward.

  • Downloading my ipod's music into new iTunes library

    I was forced to ghost my computer, and reload the OS, and in doing so obviously lost my original iTunes library. Now iTunes will not load any of my songs that I did not purchase from the iTunes store into my new iTunes library. All of the music I am trying to upload is from my personal CD collection. Is there any way I can transfer the songs from my iPod to my iTunes library without downloading each CD into iTunes via CD drive? thanks

    For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    Find out how to do that here.
    How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
    For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump.
    If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
    iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
    There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.

  • Why is my iPod showing a no sign when i drag music into the itunes library and how do i fix it

    when i go into itunes and in my desktops music library, i open itunes and click on on this ipod. when i want to drag my music it wont let me and show a red no sign. my sister has the same ipod but doesnt have this issue. please help me fix it, this has been going on for a little under a year now.

    Do you have iTunes set up to sync manually? That is required to drag and drop
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    iTunes 11 for Mac: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    Do you have any Restrictions set that would prevent syncing those songs? Settings>General>Restrictions

  • How do I get songs on my ipods back into my itunes library, which was lost due to hard drive crash, How do I get songs on my ipods back into my itunes library, which was lost due to hard drive crash

    Due to a hard drive crash I lost my entire Itunes library.  Majority of this was from an extensive CD library that I imported into itunes.  When I reloaded itunes and viewed my library I only found the titles purchased from itunes.  How do I get music off of an itune classic & itune nano ipods and put back into the library so I don't have to re import my extensive cd collection

    If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
    1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
    2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
    3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
    If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod. And here is a guide about how to transfer ipod songs back to computer. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

  • Does dragging music into the itunes library take up double the space on my hardrive?

    If my music is in my C drive and then i drag and drop it into the music folder in itunes, will that take up double my space on my harddrive?
    Same goes if I delete my music from my C drive, will it still say in itunes?

    There's a setting that determines what happens. In iTunes Preferences, Advanced tab you can choose to leave the music where it was or copy it to the iTunes library. If you choose to leave it where it was then it will not take up double the space. If you choose to copy it to the iTunes library it WILL take up additional space, but you can then delete it from any other locations.
    If you delete music from your C: drive that has already been indexed in iTunes this will confuse iTunes momentarily, but it will recover when you try to play it. The better way to delete music is to delete it in the iTunes library; this will keep things in sync.
