  • Is there anyway to get songs off ipod onto computer

    Is there anyway to get songs off an ipod onto a computer, i want to put some songs on a different computer

    iTunes will only give you the option to copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    For everything else (music from CDs, other downloads etc) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

  • Getting songs off ipod on new comp

    l recently got a new laptop, and my old laptop has all my songs on it and l dont have it anymore! and l was wondering if l can plug my ipod into my new laptop and it will get all my songs off my ipod and put it into my itunes on my new laptop! l plugged it in and nothing worked, and on my new itunes l purchased music and it wont add them to my ipod at all! So if ya can help me out would be greatly appriciated
    thanks

    No, it didn't happen to me before. The last time, I switched computers, but when I tried to sync to the new one, I found that while my music transferred properly, my playlists did not. When I asked for help, someone posted a link to the 3rd party software that could extract both songs and playlists. (I eventually managed to salvage the library file from the old computer, so the issue was moot).
    This time, a friend of mine found her old iPod, but the computer it was synced to is long gone. She would like to retrieve the files. Can you help? Do you have any information regarding these programs? Or do you offer nothing more than stupid assumptions and failed attempts at cleverness?

  • Getting songs off Ipod after Reformatting

    Hello, I reformatted my hard drive earlier this week, and I need to get my songs off my Ipod and put them onto Itunes. What is the best way to do this?
    Thanks

    Hey there,
    There are several ways you can pull the music off your iPod and onto iTunes. The first link after the Apple support document below provides step-by-step instructions for the direct method if you have a PC as well as a few third party applications (for both the Mac and PC) if you choose to go that route instead. You can also do a simple google search for "copy music from iPod to computer" and you should receive a number of sites that can help you out.
    Just make sure that when you have your iPod plugged into your computer, that you don't hit "Erase and Sync" before completing the task of copying your music over.
    Also, if you have any purchased music, you will probably have to re-authorize your computer by heading to the Store drop down menu and choosing "Authorize computer."

  • Messed up trying to get songs off ipod

    Okay, I really messed up. I have a 7th gen Ipod Nano. I tried to get the music off of my ipod, then put it on my computer so I could put it back on my ipod without getting it erased, if you can follow that. I went into the ipod_control folder and copied the music folder from that into the music folder on my computer. I thought I could just drop that folder back into Itunes and Itunes would sort it out. Now I have a bunch of weird numbered folders in my music folder and since I tried to drag and drop it into itunes, there is 2 gigs of "other" in Itunes that is not showing anything. If someone can help me I would be eternally grateful.

    If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
    The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod

  • Replaced hard drive: need helping getting songs off ipod to itunes

    I recently had to send my computer into apple for repair, needless to say they had to replace my hard drive so i lost all of my music. However it is still on my ipod, so i was wondering if there is a way to transfer it from my ipod to my computer

    Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod.

I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • Need to get songs off ipod to itunes

    I just bought a new laptop and need to know how to get my itunes library off of my ipod and onto my itunes library on the laptop....help please!

    Have you not got your old computer (so you could copy playlists) or a backup of your content that you can copy onto your new computer ? If you haven't got a backup then you will need a third-party program - you could see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work

  • Software to get songs off an iPod

    what's the best software to get songs off an iPod on windows?

    Hi BigRedCube,
    There are lots of good programs that can transfer your songs form your iPod. I specially like two, though.
    In my opinion, [iPod Access|http://www.findleydesigns.com/ipodaccess/index.html] ou o [iRepo|http://www.purpleghost.com/index.php?q=irepo] are excellent, once they have iPod Touch/iPhone compatibility and can also transfer your important metadata.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do you get songs off of itouch when it has been sycned with another computer

    How do you get songs off an ipod touch to a new computer when the ipod touch has been synced with another computer.  The other computer died.  Thanks!

    You don't.  Unless they were purchased from the iTunes store, then you can go to File > Transfer purchases.  Or you can right click (ctrl click if you're on a Mac) on the name of the device in the source list in iTunes and then choose Transfer purchases.

  • I'm a newb-how do you get songs onto ipod nano?

    i have iTunes, but i don't know how to get songs off iTunes, onto iPod, help!

    Firstly, you must put some songs into your iTunes, e.g. rip the song from the CD. Once the song appear on the iTunes, connect your iPod with your computer, and a window will pop up and you need to register your iPod with the iTunes, then make a choice whether you would like to do a sync manually or auto.
    By the way, seems that you are using window 98, I am not too sure whether it manages to support the iPod Nano, you need minimum XP or 2000

    Can someone give me a link, or tell me one that shows step by step.

    Here is a way of doing it, for another take on this, search the forum for posts by Zevoneer.
    Copy from iPod to PC
    It is important not to allow your iPod to sync with an empty library. If it is set to synchronise automatically you will get a message saying your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to sync – it is important to press cancel as syncing with an empty library erases all music from your iPod.
    You can also prevent auto sync by holding down shift & ctrl as you plug in your iPod and keeping the keys held down until the iPod appears in iTunes.
    Once you are connected, you need to set your iPod to manage music manually.

    If you have an iPod with iTunes Store purchases on it, you can use it to copy your purchases to other authorized computers.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesWin/7.3/en/2586win.html
    However this is not allowed for other music.
    This MacMuse tip tells you how to copy music from your iPod using Windows Explorer, but it is a bit fiddly:
    http://discussions.apple.com/messageview.jspa?messageID=797432
    Otherwise you can use third party software to manage the transfer, there are a variety of programs out there, some free and some that will copy ratings and counts as well as the music files. Here is a selection, check them out and see what suits you.

  • Load songs off ipod to computor or disk

    Is there anyway to load songs off ipod to computor or disk?

    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.

  • Getting songs off the ipod with 4.2?

    How do you remove songs off of the ipod touch now?

    Manually manage?
    If you manually manage, then you erase music manually the same way you always have.
    Go under device tab>Ipod and delete them.
