Having trouble transferring songs in iPod

I just got a new laptop and I also just downloaded iTunes... i have an iPod already with alot of songs on it
Im wondering if its possible for me to transfer the songs I already have to my new library... while keeping the songs on my iPod too.
Thank you!

iPodRip has always been buggy for me - if you have songs with the same title but by different artists (e.g. "Angel" is a song title by both Aerosmith and Sarah McLachlan), and one is currently resident in iTunes, it will not import the other as it is falsely marked as already being in iTunes.
I'd go with Senuti or MusicRescue. Never tried Yamipod.
To the original poster: A program like Yamipod will only get your songs back into iTunes, since you've lost your original files. You still need iTunes itself to play the songs and for future transfers into your iPod.

I'm having trouble transferring songs from Laptop to devices

I'm having trouble transferring songs from my laptop to both my iPad 2 and iPhone 5. I just added a new album to my library, and where before I used to select the songs I wanted to add to my devices, and then drag and drop them, this doesn't appear to work. I watched the tutorial and it says there is an 'Add to' option when you clkick on the device name in the top right hand corner. That doesn't appear on mine at all. Completely confused and nearing the end of my tether!

Make sure your device iOS is updated:

HELP! !

hiya!
hmmmm. some other connection issues have been known to cause the -69, although under those circumstances people more typically get the "disk cannot be read from or written to" error message.
working on that theory, let's see if anything in this document helps:

I'm having trouble transferring the songs on my ipod to my HP computer. Everytime i authorize the computer to allow the songs to go on, it doesn't do anything. Then I authorize it again and still nothing has changed. Any suggestions?

Was the content purchased from iTunes? If not, it will not transfer.

I am having trouble with songs that will not play completely through.

I am having trouble with songs that will not finish playback. The songs play about 75% of the way and then stop mid-song. This is true for my PC and songs transferred to my iPod. I have redownloaded (and repaid) for one song to see if that helps, which it did. But that can become expensive as I am starting to find an increasing amount of songs that are haaving this problem.

Take it to a genius bar. It's probably something with the magnets.

Hi asims01,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The information below may be able to answer your questions about how to delete songs from your iPhone:
Deleting songs downloaded to your device
Tap the Music app.
Tap More > Songs at the bottom.
Scroll or search for the song you would like to delete from your device.
Swipe right to left on the song, and then tap Delete.
Note: You must be in Artists, Songs, or Albums view to delete songs from your device. Deleting from a playlist won't remove a song from your iOS device.
Also, this information can be found on page 64 of the iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
If you have iOS 7, this will delete the song from local storage, but the song will still appear with a cloud symbol in the Music app, as you've noticed. To hide the iTunes in the Cloud purchases, navigate to Settings > iTunes & App Store, and disable "Show All: Music”
There may be a few orphaned songs on your iPhone that were partially downloaded or corrupted in some way. If that is the case, you can erase all of the music from your phone. Follow the instructions below and select the Music app under Usage:
iPhone, iPad, and iPod: Understanding capacity

I hope this information helps ....

PC crashes when transferring songs to ipod or using itunes..

1) Issue: When transferring songs to IPOD through the use of a PC(itunes or real player), a blue faulty screen will eventually show with some error and then my computer restarts. I have a bout 3800 songs for a 20GB IPOD and it seems to always stop around 4G when transferring. I tried using the IPOD on another computer and it seems to be fine.
2) Also, when I play music using iTunes, it causes the PC to crash as well, without the IPOD connected.
During the error report, it usually says there is an error with the Hard Drive(Western Digital 250 SATA 2 hard drive; hard to use a jumper to adjust to the SATA 1 settings of this motherboards) and it couldn’t’ read it for a second. It advises to to a ScanDisk?CHKDSK run, but when I do this(during reboot), it stops in STEP 4 out of 5 at 20-30% and does nothing. Did this for 1 day! Other error reports supposedly report a faulty device driver error and advise to update drivers, but I’ve updates Apple iTunes.
Contacted Hard Drive manufacturer, Western Digital, and they believe it is a controller device driver issue or something related. Tried updating the bios. Tried installing the VIA 4 for 1 drivers and other drivers in the Motherboards Installation CD. Running a Disk Tools before Microsoft even shows itself, reports no errors. However, when you are partially booted and the computer is scheduled to check the disk, there are errors(won’t move.) I see no update for controller device drivers
A3) lso, if I have a USB hard drive connected to the PC(such as an IPOD or external usb hard drive), sometimes the computer switches boot devices(hard drives) and thinks that the IPOD/External Hard drive is the boot device. This is also reflected in the BIOS and the USB connected hard drive replaces my main SATA hard drive(western digital) and my computer doesn’t completely reboot unless I go under the BIOS and change it. It’s weird because I DO NOT CHANGE THE BIOS. For some reason, it changes on its own.
I have no idea what’s going on. Please Help Me.
My system: ASUS K8V-X, Athlon XP 3200+, 1gb corsair ddr ram, SATA Raid (2 generation) 250 Hard drive

Im having trouble downloading songs purchased in Itunes to my nano. Help!

What happens when you try to sync songs to your Nano? Are you getting any error messages? Does the iPod appear under Devices in iTunes?
What options and configurations do you have enabled from under the iPod's Summary and Music tabs?

I am having trouble transferring files from an old MacBook (2007) to a MacBook Air over a wireless network. The connection was interrupted and the time was over 24 hours. Is there a better way to do this? I'm using Migration assistant.

I'm having trouble with syncing my iPod to my computer.

I'm having trouble with syncing my iPod. It gets stuck on the last step saying, "Waiting for changes to be applied." It's been doing this for the last half hour. Is there anything I can do to correct this or is am just going to have to restore my iPod?

You can sync/manually mange iphone with one and only one computer. If you sync/manually mange to anther, then it will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.
What "trouble" are you having?

I am having trouble buying songs on Itunes. When I hit "buy", nothing happens. Any suggestions?

I have the same problem, but discovered I can 'gift' itunes. I can't update my itunes version because my operating system doesn't support it and I can't update my operating system because my laptop is too old. 2008. have rebooted, retried, done all I can think of... still not working. Waiting for I support to respond.

Sony just isn't helping me. I'm still having trouble transferring my NX3 video files.

Well, I'm still having trouble transferring my NX3 video files to my editing software. Sony suggested using the Sony Content Browser but that doesn't work. Sony just can't seem to help me. If the scene shot on the card is longer than 10 minutes, 4 frames of audio is lost from each file. So if you shoot 60 minutes straight (say a wedding, you loose audio every 10 minutes) I guess this doesn't sound important, unless it happens just as the bride is saying "Yes" in her vows.
My original post is as follows:
Sony NXCAM (NX-3) drops audio tracks when importing into FCPX and Premiere.
I called Sony on Feb 13, 2015. I spoke with Doug (case no. 661972). I've been using my NX-3 for about 3 months. I'm still testing Sony NX-3. Looking for a way to transfer the video and audio without dropping audio frames. I didn't catch it at first, I mean it's only a few audio frames. It seems to happen with files over 12 minutes shooting. It seems that I can't upload the video/audio shot in my NX-3 to either my iMac (using FCPX nor Premiere) nor can I upload it to my PC (using Premiere) without 3 to 6 audio "frames" being dropped. When I spoke with Doug at Sony, a person I've actually spoke with in the past, he seemed frustrated. I was speaking with him as a professional and was attempting to find a solution, he was being protective and wanted to place blame at other companies. He stated that the camera played back the files correctly so it isn't a Sony problem. I explained that it is a problem for all of us if we choose Sony as our purchase. He told me "you should all buy Canons next time." That kind of through me. How do you speak to that. I explained that I am just looking for a solution and he told me to call the software and computer companies. Doesn't Sony realize that just because the camera works, that isn't the end of the road. You need to put the video into a devise to edit the video. I asked him what software would he recommend to a professional to use to edit footage taken by the Sony, he no reply. All I received from Doug was a really bad feeling about Sony. I've been a Sony "shooter" for over 34 years. I still can't believe the way I was treated. Not sure now what path I will take with this. But I surely need to tell everyone (all of my associates who have been asking me how I like my new camera) what response I received from Sony. Buy a Canon. By the way, I asked if Sony might have another camera of the same type that didn't drop audio. Doug didn't know. Really strange. Is Doug not happy with his prosition with Sony?

Auto Correct:
As far as I'm aware this cannot be turned off. Someone may prove me wrong on this point
CDDB Update:
Again, as far as I'm aware this cannot be done. You could use WMP to update the files then import them into iTunes.
Music Deletion:
iTunes seems to only ask you if you want to delete a file if the file is located in its library folder. In the Preferences>Advanced>General section try changing your iTunes Music Folder to the folder where all your music is stored and it should ask you if you want to move files to the recycle bin when you delete them.
Library Update:
This is a feature I with iTunes would introduce. When you delete or move a file iTunes loses track of it. What it needs to be able to do is first check to see that all the existing files in the library are still there, and remove the ones that aren’t, then it needs to search for new tracks.
It can search for new tracks but if you have renamed a file, then it will be in the library twice, one is the old file (which will no longer play because it doesn’t exist) and the other is the new file.
The way I now avoid iTunes annoyances in relation to file names and folder organisation is I let iTunes sort it all out for me. Selecting "Keep iTunes Music folder organised" and "Copy files to iTunes folder when adding to library" will get iTunes to sort your music into Artist folders, then within the Artist folders are Albums, then within the album folders are the actual files, which are named Track Number Artist. For example Coldplay - Clocks will be named 05 Clocks.mp3.
WARNING: Selecting "Keep iTunes Music folder organised" will copy all the music in your library to the iTunes Music folder. You must have enough Hard Disk space to do this.
...that wound up longer then I thought it would. Hope you can make sense of it all.
Cheers,
Ben

I am having trouble transfering any media from my windows 7 pc to my iPad 3. Currently using the latest version of iTunes n my windows pc but still the media won't appear on my devicewhen being transferred..

I am having trouble transfering any media from my windows 7 pc to my iPad 3. Currently using the latest version of iTunes n my windows pc but still the media won't appear on my devicewhen being transferred..

The window would open and I would get the hourglass cursor suggesting something was happening, but the Apple home page (default from the install) would not load, nor would any other page I tried (google, yahoo, cnn).
Even though it's about a different application, I'd try the following document with that:
iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
(Safari uses the same webkit engine to render web pages as iTunes uses to render the Store pages. So an issue that can cause the iTunes Store to blank can also cause a Safari for Windows application on the same PC to produce blank pages.)
