How can I convert the files on my old windows based ipod classic to my present iTunes Mac account?

I have music on my old iPod classic that is not in my Mac Apple based itunes library.  Is there any way to convert the windows file to an Apple file?

See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    I may be reading too much into things, but is your media stored in a bunch of folders where each folder represents a playlist? If so my script ImportFolderStructure might be useful to you...

  • I have converted most of my windows media files to itunes. However I had to close it down about 3 quarters of the way through. It then processed the album art. How can I convert the files that it didn't finish doing the first time? thanks

    Hi there,
    hope you can help me. I helped my sister convert her window media files to itunes and set up an account for her. Unfortunately her computer is really slow and it was really late and we had to turn it off. It processed some of the album art for the files that it had converted. However, some songs were not converted and because there was quite a few left, I don't really know which ones did not get converted as I selected  all of the folders. How do I find out which ones I have left to convert and put the rest of the songs onto itunes for her please? Or are they on the itunes still as they showed up initially on itunes in the list to be converted.
    Thank you!

    You could convert them all again and then dedupe, or use a Windows search to reveal all the WMA files and then try to work out which still need to be converted. If you're lucky iTunes would have processed the imports in alphabetical path order so it would just be a matter of working out where it had got up to...

  • How can I convert the files in my ipod to the original mp3 and jpegs?

    My computer recently crashed and my ipod has most of my photos, music and contacts. I am using windows OS and my question is how come you guys dont have software that will covert IPOD's files to windows viewable/playable formats?
    This is very unfair since millions of people buy your products and you have only a one sided solution (Mac users only). What about all the Windows OS users?????

    iTunes converts files into useable formts for the iPod.
    If the iPod crashes, reload from iTunes. If your computer crashes, use the backup files of your music folder you created.After all, you did read the documentation and make backups as recommended, correct?
    If you did not make the recommended backups, you could try Yamipod (google it).
    Thiw will allow you to get the stuff off your iPod and back into iTunes.

    WHat is the one sided solution for Mac that Apple has developed?
    I think it's unfair that you blame Apple for your problems since they recommend you backup your music library and you did not do this.

  • How can I convert the ringtone (m4r file) I made into an mp3 file on itunes?

    How can I convert the ringtone (m4r file) that I made into an mp3 file on iTunes? I want to put it on a CD, but I can't figure out how to convert it. I didn't buy it, I made it by converting a YouTube video into an mp3 (I wanted to get the little song in the video for a ringtone.) I'm not sure what to do. 

    Hello ed2345,
    Thanks for the help, but this is not the problem.
    It's hard to describe the problem, but I'll try it again, this time with pictures.
    I was left with the following folders in the iTunes Downloads folder.
    http://www.picfront.org/d/7yb3
    These TMP Folders have a download.m4a and a Info.plist file.
    After moving the audio files in iTunes a bit I get this.
    http://www.picfront.org/d/7yb2
    As you can see no other Information for the download.m4a than the length.
    That's how the .m4p file looks like
    http://www.picfront.org/d/7yb1
    And this is how the same .m4a file currently looks
    http://www.picfront.org/d/7yb0
    Like I said, I could edit all these download.m4a files by myself but that would leave some information out.
    Note: Sorry, I hope the links do not spam you with annoying ads. I don't get any but I was told that there can be some annoying one.

    As has been mentioned Adobe Reader cannot export PDF page content. Nor can it create PDF or manipulate PDF page content.
    What you can do is use one of Adobe's online subscription services. Two provide for PDF  to Word export.
    There's ExportPDF and PDF Pack.

    A Pages (.pages) document is only viewable with Apple's Pages application on the Mac, or via Pages for iCloud beta. You should export it to either MS Word (.doc/x) or PDF. The Share menu will let you do this directly into a Mail attachment.

  • How can I convert multiple files at one time and not one at a time

    How can I convert multiple files at one time and not one at a time

    Hi Plissey1950,
    Sorry for the lengthy delay to a response.  Are you trying to convert multiple files to individual PDF files at the same time? (not combine them).  If so, you'll need to use Adobe Acrobat for this function. The CreatePDF service does not have the ability to convert multiple files to multiple individual PDF files.
    Thanks,
    David

    how can i convert video files from my mac to watch them on my iphone?, how can i convert video files to watch them on my iphone?

    Turns out the answer to that question changes if you ask it more than 4 times, so ask it again....
    The answer depends on the type of video files you want to convert.  If they are DRM protected commercial videos, no help can be given here.  Google.

  • How can I convert MPEG files (stored on a PC) to use in iMovie on my Macbook Pro?

    How can I convert MPEG files (stored on a PC) to use in iMovie on my Macbook Pro?

    Get a free app called MPEG Streamclip.
    Available here.
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    Drag your clip or clips into MPEG Streamclip. Then use FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME to export the clips in Apple Intermediate Codec.
    Sometimes, MPEG2 clips also require that you install the Apple QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component. MPEG Streamclip will tell you if you need this. This is available from Apple for $20.
