How can i put the songs on my ipod back into my itunes library?

Most of the songs in my library have been corrupted, so I need to find a way to put the songs back onto the main library so I can transfer them to my new iPod. A majority of the songs were downloaded from an older computer that is now broken, or were gotten from CDs. I have tried everything, and I don't want to have to purchase the songs all over again.

HT1329 How can I get the songs on my iPod onto my new iTunes library?

I have an iPod that was synced to another iTunes library on another PC. The PC died and I replaced it with a MacBook Pro but it keeps saying the iPod is synced w/ another iTunes library. How can I get the songs on my iPod on the new iTunes library?

Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

I had my computer worked on and did not back up my itunes library. how do i put the songs on my ipod back to the itunes library

I had my computer worked on and did not back up my itunes library. Now the only music I have is on my ipod. How would I put the music on my ipod back into my itunes music library?

The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.
The exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases
You should always maintain a backup copy. This is very important.

How can I increase the speed of importing audio cds into my iTunes library? On my old Dell PC cds imported at 30-35x, but my new iMac (using the Apple Superdrive) is trudging along at 8-10x. Any suggestions?

Hi,
Not sure you can do anything about this. I get vaiable import speeds - a lot depends on the actual disc. The Read Write spec is 24X but I rarely see speeds close to this.

How do I get songs on my ipods back into my itunes library, which was lost due to hard drive crash, How do I get songs on my ipods back into my itunes library, which was lost due to hard drive crash

Due to a hard drive crash I lost my entire Itunes library. Majority of this was from an extensive CD library that I imported into itunes. When I reloaded itunes and viewed my library I only found the titles purchased from itunes. How do I get music off of an itune classic & itune nano ipods and put back into the library so I don't have to re import my extensive cd collection

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. And here is a guide about how to transfer ipod songs back to computer. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

How can I put the report generated by a program into a File?

Hi all,
   How can I put the report generated by a program into a File?It can be in TXT format or excel format which ever is possible.
I need to export this file to memory,How can I do that??
Regards,
Shashank.

Hello Shashank,
Please ignore my previous answer... Ofcourse it works...
There are several ways to do this...
two of them are
1. List -> Save -> File and press enter..
    it will ask for the format, then path where to save it. Just give the path.
2. Using function module 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'.
I'm giving the example bellow which explains the usage of both GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD.
To do this... you need to have folder with name 'TEST' and a .txt file in it with name 'test'. And contents of it are :
TEST1             ,BOT
TEST2             ,BOT
TEST3             ,BUT
with spaces.
REPORT zssr_bdc .
DATA: BEGIN OF g_t_itab OCCURS 0,
        matnr LIKE mara-matnr,
        maktx LIKE makt-maktx,
      END OF g_t_itab.
DATA: g_t_bdcdata TYPE TABLE OF bdcdata.
DATA: path TYPE string,
      path1 type string.
path = 'C:\Documents and Settings\ssr3kor\Desktop\TEST\test.txt'.
path1 = 'C:\Documents and Settings\ssr3kor\Desktop\TEST\test1.txt'.
*contents of test.txt    *
*TEST1             ,BOT *
*TEST2             ,BOT *
*TEST3             ,BUT *
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
EXPORTING
    filename = path
TABLES
    data_tab                      = g_t_itab.
LOOP AT g_t_itab.
WRITE:/1(18) g_t_itab-matnr, 20(40) g_t_itab-maktx.
ENDLOOP.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
EXPORTING
   filename = path1
   filetype                      = 'ASC'
TABLES
    data_tab                      = g_t_itab.
Now you will get one .txt file with name 'TEST1.TXT' in the TEST folder.

You don't. You sync your devices with itunes.

How can I get the songs from my iPod on to my new iTunes library?!! Help!!

So I've looked on all the support pages but I've got a feeling there is nothing that can be done with this, hopefully someone can help!
We moved to the US and while our computer was being sent over it got water damaged so I lost all of my itunes library. And I didnt back it up properly. So I want to know if there is anyway to transfer all the songs from my ipod onto our new itunes library, or if i can somehow get my ipod songs on to disc and then import them?? I really don't want to lose all my songs, so if anyone can help I'd be very grateful!!

Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod2PC Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
SharePod Windows Only
iPodRip Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac and Windows
Music Rescue Mac & Windows
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
Floola Mac & Windows
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.
