I have a video that I created for my daughter's first birthday. The hard drive on my computer crashed and I lost the video file. The only place I have it is on my iPod Classic. How can I transfer the video from my iPod to my new hard drive?

I recently got a new computer and a new iTunes account. How do I transfer all of the content from my iPod Touch to my new library without it syncing and deleting everything? Thanks!

The sync is one way - computer to ipod. The exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases

The ipod is ot a backup device. It simply irrors the selected content of your computer.

If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod onto your computer. Here is a guide about how to copy iPod music. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

I'm trying to transfer the files from my ipod touch to my new computer itunes keeps telling me that all the apps and music won't be transferred that the computer is authorized. Then it brings up a previous apple id which is no longer valid.

I have authorized it several times but it keeps bring up a previous apple id that I had but when I try to log in using that id it tells be it is no longer vailid and then it stops and won't let me transfer any files. Any suggestion are welcome. Thank You

I am not able to access Firefox under one user account on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

I use windows Vista and I cannot open Firefox under one user account (I keep receiving the "firefox profile cannot be loaded . . ." error message) on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

NOTE: you can skip this 1st step.
Step 1
I'm on Win7 so the paths might be slightly different... C:\Users\(YOUR PC ACCOUNT)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bnelgkol.default\bookmarkbackups ... Find the "bookmarks-[DATE].json" you want and copy it to the profile you want. You may want to change the date to a name you will recognize.
Step 2
Then on your browser "Bookmarks>Show All Bookmarks or Ctrl+Shift+B ". This will bring up the Bookmark Organizer, I think they call it Library now. From there click "Import & Back up>Restore" this will bring up a drop down with your back ups. If you followed step 1, find the json you added and select it. If you skipped step 1, from "Import & Back up>Restore" select "Choose File..." Then browser for the json you want to import. Which should be in a similar location as mentioned in step 1.
NOTE: "AppData" is a hidden folder, will have to set show hidden folders to be able to see it.

You should be able to recover the media with the tips in this post from forum regular Zevoneer but I'm not sure what the implications are for your application settings. You can probably transfer your purchases into a newly authorised library, backup the device, recover any other media using third party tools, then restore the device from the backup. That should switch the assocation of the device to the new library but it is not something I've personally tested.
When you get it all working, make a backup!
