HDD failure - can you import photos & music from iPod to new HDD?

My Hardrive gave up the ghost last night (flashing folder with ?) I have taken it back today to have a replacement HDD under warranty.
The only backup I have as such is all my music and photos on the iPod. When I get my MB back with the new HDD is there a way to get iTunes to import all the music & album artwork? aslo will iPhoto be able to import the photos (which are all on the iPod at full quality)?
Needles to say I will be buying Time Capsule in the next few weeks as it's going to take me ages to redo all the speedsheets and documents that were not backed up

There are a number of programs that can transfer data from an iPod to a Mac. Senuti is free but I don't know if it does just music or can transfer other data as well. At any rate, hit your favorite Mac download site and search on iPod.

  • Old Computer crash. How can I transfer my music  from Ipod to new Computer?

    Lightning struck my old computer, how can I transfer my music from the Ipod to the new computer (Windows XP) Itunes library?

    You don't need to buy anything from the spammers that infect these forums. There are plenty of free options.
    If you are using 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.
    For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), 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 can be messy.
    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.
    Another free program is Pod Player.

  • Can't get my music from ipod onto new computer?

    So my iPod has been synced to our desktop, and I have bought some music from my ipod that is not on the desktop. But now i have a new computer and i want my music from my ipod, not the desktop, on the itunes on the new computer, but transfer purchases isn't working. So.. is there a way to transfer from the ipod on to the new itunes? Or can someone at the genius bar do that for me?
    -Thanks

    First of, in iTunes, select "Store" in the menu and authorize the computer.
    Then, when your iPhone is connected right click on it and select "Transfer Purchases", this should move your content from your iPhone to your computer.

  • Can you import iTunes playlists from iPod?

    I have moved my iTunes library off my computer and onto an external hard drive and somehow in the process have lost my playlist.  (I didn't do a good job of moving over, had to basically download everything back from the cloud).  So my music is all there but not my playlists.  If I have my playlists on an iPod, can I import them into my new iTunes library from my iPod?  If I plug in my iPod will it sync with library and will I lose all my playlists??

  • Can you import video directly from a video camera ?

    Can you import video directly from a video camera to the iPad 2 ? If so, what is needed?

    I would say no. I have an Ipad2 with the connection kit. A recent Sony camera which works fine in imovie for my 27" imac, but nothing with the Ipad. Only thing that it finds are pictures that can be made with the same video camera. Apple wrote a note aboit probkmes with importing, but i'm very disappointed with what i have right now.

  • How can I transfer my music from ipod nano to iphone?

    hi,
    i'm seriously considering buying an iphone. but before i do, i just have a couple of questions:
    1. How can I transfer my music from ipod nano to iphone?
    2. Will there be an iphone with higher memory capacity than 16gb? If so, when will it be out. (If there will be memory sizes of ipod similar to ipod classic, then i think it's better if i wait a little longer considering that there's only little difference in the price).
    Thank you!!

    I don't believe there will be an iPhone with storage capacity equivalent to the iPod Classic anytime soon - at least not within the next month, or even this year or the next.
    The iPod Classic has a hard drive. The iPod Touch and iPhone have Flash storage. Flash storage is more expensive than the hard drive equivalent, but the cost for Flash storage is coming down - supply an demand is probably helping this. The iPod Touch has double the storage capacity of the largest iPhone storage capacity since the iPod Touch doesn't include a cell phone - the case has more room for two 16GB Flash drives. More than likely there will be a 32GB iPhone at some point, but I believe it will be a while before we see a 64GB iPhone or larger approaching the storage capacity that is available with an iPod Classic.

  • HT201269 I have new iphone and all data were restored but my music! How can I add my music from Itunes and new iphone?

    I have new iphone and all data were restored but my music! How can I add my music from Itunes and new iphone?

    Connect the old phone to your computer, right click on it in iTunes, and choose Transfer Purchases. That should put all of your music in iTunes except any tracks that were not purchased from iTunes. If you have any such you will have to retrieve them from the original source, or see: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141.
    Apple also has this tip for copying data from an old phone to a new one.

    Hi There
    You can only transfer purchased music from your iPod to iTunes using iTunes. However there are third party utilities that you can use to retrieve your music, just do a google search or have a look on http://www.versiontracker.com
    Hope this helps

  • Can you import movie videos from SD camera card

    Can you import movie videos (MP4) into an Ipad from an SD camera card on a Lightning cable ... or can you only do this from a laptop via Itunes? In other words, is Itunes the only way to get non-Itune videos to the Ipad? Hope I havent made this sound confusing.

    To import the videos must follow a very strict naming convention.
    All file names must have 8 characters for a name and be located in a folder named DCIM
    for example
    DCIM
    MOV_5789.mp4
    You can't watch the videos off the cart, they must be imported into the iPad. They'll go into the camera roll, when you tap on them it'll open the video app and you can watch from there.
