Hard drive crash; but ipod OK; how can I get ipod music onto itunes?

I had to do a complete recovery of my wife's computer. It appears my "drag" of Music folder prior to recovery did not complete. She has a working iPod with everything on it. How do I get the iPod music, podcasts, and such, back into a brand new and clean and blank itunes?

I have about 800 more songs on my nano than itunes, due to a crash. How can I get the songs onto itunes from the ipod, or at least get the new music ive gotten since the crash onto my ipod without deleting all the other songs when it syncs?

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion. Use your backup copy to put everything back.

iPods and other iDevices are not backup or storage devices.
Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder (and all other desired data) from the old computer to the new computer.

Buy the songs that your friend put on the iPod that you liked. They had no right to give you the copyrighted music when they sold you the device.

how can i get the music from itunes on my pc to transfer to my iphone?

The only supported method to get media onto an iDevice is via iTunes. Read the User's Guide it will describe how to do this in detail.
iCloud does not put media on the device, but using iTunes Match and iCloud it is possible to have access to all media that exists on your computer, but only when the device has Internet access. It will not load media onto the device.
Use of 3rd party tools to transfer files to the device is not supported.

Hard drive crashed but backed up - how do I restore to a new PC?

My PC crashed but I had it backed up to an external hard drive, so I've got my whole iTunes folder structure and files from my old PC in tact. I bought a new PC, and would like to get the media (purchased songs; songs from CDs; purchased movies) from the external hard drive and on to my new PC. The PC was running iTunes 7.x and I've installed the latest 9.x iTunes, so we're dealing with this version issue too.
Any easy way to do this?

+so I've got my whole iTunes folder structure and files from my old PC in tact.+
Do a shift-start of itunes.
Press AND HOLD the shift key while starting ituens. Keep pressing until you get a prompt to choose a library.
Browse out to your exHD drive and choose the ITL file there.
Does everything show up? If so, you can
1. Save a copy of that ITL file just because.
2. change the itunes media folder location to your C: drive
3. Consolidate everything to your C: drive
4: Copy the ITL file over to your C: drive and do another shift-start from there
Or perhaps you want to leave everyhing on the exHD drive? If so, just try the shift-start.

I have lost Lightroom 5.6 due to a hard drive crash. The old hard drive has been replaced. How can I get LR5 back? I don't have a disc. I still have my LR4 disc and key. I have another adobe key, but don't know if it relates to LR5.

I have lost Lightroom 5 due to a crashed hard drive. I don't have a back up disc, and I dont think I have a key. I have a an adobe key recorded but don't know if it relates to LR5. I have an LR4 disc and key. LR5 is still intact and running on my laptop, but I need to use LR% on my desktop PC. I need an address to try a download so that I can try the key which might fit it. Any ideas how I can transfer the program (with key) from my laptop? Any other ideas?

Just download and install.
you can find by internet search for "download Lightroom", or click here:

Note: trial software is same as licensed software, once you license it.. (I hope you still have the license key).

How can I get my music onto my iphone 4S

I hae just purchased an iphone 4s and can't seem to transfer my music from my computer to it. Never had this problem with my old iphone 2. Most of my music is CDs which I have transferred to itunes on my home computer (an imac, still running leopard) when I open the music folder on the iphone 4s it just says I have no content and have to purchase music from itunes. There is no ipod folder on the new iphone 4S like on my iphone. I really want to get my music as I have some great stuff and don't want to purchase it all again from itunes.

The iPod app is now called "music".
Is Apple ID set up on your phone and is your Mac still authorized in the Store menu in iTunes?
Can you select the music in the music pane in iTunes, or is it grayed out?
Any restrictions set in Settings/General/Restrictions?
