How can I get my music transferred from my ipod classic back to my computer?

I have a 5th generation Ipod classic that is cracked on the surface but works still on a docking station at home in which I can select the music through my tv.  My problem is that certain music and ablums show they are on my itunes but do not play on my computer.  How can I pull the music from my ipod to my itunes so I can transfer it to a newer ipod I have now plus I want to listen to the music on my computer.

    Restore the device from the backup created.
    If no backup exists, there is nothing to recover.

    You'll need to copy the music from the old iPod back to iTunes first before you can transfer it to your new iPod.

  • HT1296 One Ipod touch has a different Apple ID than the rest. We are unable to sync Ipod Touch with our computer to transfer music we already purchased. How can we get this music transfered?

    How can I transfer music from our computer to an Ipod Touch with a different Apple ID?

    Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and tap the Apple ID listed and sign out and sign in with other ID
    You also may want to go to other places like:
    - Settings>iCloud
    - Settinge>FaceTime
    - Settings>Messages>Send and Receive and change the ID
    It may be best to go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Settings and start over again and set up the iPod again with his account/ID

  • How can I get a Voice Memo from my iPod to my PC?

    I record discussions with coworkers on my iPod Touch because I have trouble taking handwritten notes.
    The trouble is that the Voice Memos playback screen is small, and the Scrub control is so small, that it's hard to use with any precision. I wind up going back two minutes in the recording when I only need to go back 30 seconds, that kind of thing. It's very time-consuming transcribing notes when I listen to much larger portions of the recording than I need to, multiple times.
    To make things worse, the Scrub control in Voice Memos is very near the Delete button.
    All I want to do is move or copy this recording off of my iPod and onto a PC at my job, so that I can listen to it on a larger player that's easier to use. Needless to say, I'll manage to play an unprotected audio recording on my PC one way or another.
    My "real" iTunes installation is at home. Can I move the file from my iPod into an otherwise empty iTunes installation at work? I'd also like not to erase my iPod by syncing it to an empty iTunes installation; been there, done that.
    I've tried Messaging these recordings to friends with iPhones to be able to see the recordings as an attachment to a Sent Message. This gets me a larger QuickTime player, but there are drawbacks with needing to Message a 24-minute recording to a friend with an iPhone.
    I would also be happy to be able to use this recoding in a larger player on my iPod without the silly business about Messages that is cited above.
    Thanks.

    Thanks Caramby.  I actually found another work-around
    Here's how to copy the voice memo to your laptop (and then email it if you need to):
    With iTunes open on the Voice Memo folder of your device (an iPhone 4s in my case), simply drag the required file from iTunes and onto the desktop of your pc/laptop.  It won't remove the file from your device but simply make a copy.   Then you can play the file from your pc/laptop (through Quicktime) as the file is in AAC format.  You can also attach the file to an email for sending.
    Hope this helps someone else.

  • How can I get EVERY music file on my iPod onto my new Mac, not just the songs purchased off of the iTunes store?

    So I've got an iPod classic with songs on it from the iTunes store, from CDs of my own, from free online playlists, etc. and when I plug it into my new Mac laptop the only songs that show up on iTunes are the ones I actually purchased in the iTunes store with my old computer (not a Mac). How can I copy ALL the music on my iPod onto my new Mac?
