Help, New itunes on different computer with old ipod.
Hi
My old computers hard drive crashed completely ,and all my music was from CD's that i have sold now. So is there anyway off getting my music off my ipod touch 2gn on to my new netbook and without my ipod being wiped clean?
Where is your backup copy of all important info/music/pics/docs? This is basic.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, then you could try ( at your risk) a 3rd party program to get the music off of the ipod ( Apple does not support this).

New computer with old Ipod touch 2nd Gen.
New computer, old Ipod, how do I add my music to my new computer from my Ipod?
The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
Just use your backup copy. This is one of the many reasons that always maintaining a backup is basic. -
How do I sync in my new itouch to a computer with existing ipod account?
Hello!
How do I set up my new itouch to the same computer (PC) that has an existing ipod account. I would like to set it up as a different account for the reason this itouch is for my son. I would like to use 1 computer for 2 ipod & itouch systems. Is there "step by step" information that anyone could guide me to? I've looked a little, but haven't found anything useful. I've tried to do this myself, but when I hook up the new itouch, it takes me to "my" ipod account vs. taking me to "set up a new product".
Thanks!Try this:

Updating new computer with old iPod
I just received a new computer and installed iTunes on it. My question is, how do I get all the music from my iPod Mini onto the new computer? They're the same songs that are on my old computer. I'm guessing there's a really easy way to do this that I've overlooked. Thanks for any help.

Can I have more than one Itunes account on my computer. How do I download all info from a different IPhone onto my computer?
Understand, you can sync more than one iPhone on a computer, but they have to be sharing some content. While you can have more than one library on a computer, it is kind of a pain to load and unload it. The only way to have more than one version of Address Book, Calendar, is to have separate logins on the computer.
If you are trying to sync content from another phone to the computer, music only syncs one way, from the computer to the phone, not the other way around. Apps are also locked to the Apple ID that was used to download them, so if they are different, you would need to know the password to both if you wanted to update them. -
I received an iPod touch 5th for my birthday. I currently share an iTunes account with my sister. My parents want us to have separate account now that my sister is in college. How do I get my stuff from old iTunes to new account without deleting anything , and ending up keeping old account for her and open new account for me to use with my new touch and my ipad2???

I purchased music on my computer with old email address, same computer new email address, but I get play music becasue it tells me computer not authorized...how do you authorize???
I have almost the exact same problem. I have a bunch of music, ringtones, TV shows, movies... stuff that I purchased that I can't authorize. All of these items were purchased with the same account I'm still using now. The difference is that I've changed my email address. I don't have the original email address from when I made those purchases and I'm unable to authorize them. I can see that when I view info on one of these purchases the "Account Name: " has my old email address... not my iTunes or Apple account. So, if I'm authorizing my iTunes using my new email none of these older purchases will work.
I'm really curious how to fix this. I've got quite a few purchases from years back that I'd like access to, but I can't authorize using my new email/iTunes or my old email (the one used for the original purchases).
Take a look at the info and tell me if you see "Account Name:" on one of your purchases. And is that associated to your old email address? There has to be a way to fix this or 'transfer' older purchases, especially if it's all under the same real 'account'. -
When trying to update Apps in iTunes on my computer my old Apple ID appears, which is no longer in use and has no password; even when I try to create a password for this Old ID, Apple won't let me. When I go into see my Account settings My new Apple ID / iTunes ID are listed and the passwords are correct obviously so why can't I update my Apps? Why does my Old apple ID keep appearing and how can I get Apple to change this?
I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option? -
Need some help: my itunes won't sync with my iphone anymore. Both softwares are up to date and I've reinstalled itunes. After I reinstall, it syncs. But then when I reboot my computer, it no longer syncs anymore and I have to keep reinstalling itunes. Thoughts???
thought that it was possible to have the same iTunes library on any machine that was authorised, a kind of cloud-iTunes I guess.
That would convenient, but sadly it is not the case. Sorry!
Either way your welcome and best of luck!

I used to sync my iphone to a laptop which is no longer in my posession. I am now looking to start over and have a new itunes on my pc with no music on it. When i connect my iphone up to the new itunes it doesn't recognise it or sync - can anyone help me?
The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version. You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes. Or you can adapt to the new look.

i cant connect to my computer with my ipod and itunes wont connect to it either. also i have forgotten my ipod passcode
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
And if necessary
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
Or
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
