How can I transfer my playlist from old ipod to new ipod?

I have an 30 gb ipod and would like to transfer my playlist to my 160 gb ipod.  My playlists were not purchased from iTunes, they were added from files from an old computer that does not work anymore.

Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

  • How can I transfer itunes library from old pc to new imac?

    I just got a new iMac and am trying to transfer iTunes library from old PC (barely running) to new iMac.  I tried through Home Sharing but couldn't find how to sync.  Is it necessary to get Firewire?  Or should I sync it from my iPad?  I'd like to avoid the middleman.  Thanks!

    A playlist is, of course, just a listing of music tracks, or did you want to copy the music too?  You do not transfer that from iPod to iPod, you synch the iPod to the same library used with the first one.

    You need to sync the data from your old iPhone, to the computer via iTunes.  Once the data is on the computer, you then need to sync it to the new iPhone, also via iTunes.

    If you sycn with iCloud, you can also sync some of the data via iCloud.  This may not work for all you music, if it was not purchased via iTunes.

  • How do I transfer saved emails from old ipad to new ipad

    how do I transfer saved emails from old ipad to new ipad?

    Hi trevorius,
    Happy New Year!  The answer to your question depends on what email account you are using.   If it is your iCloud email account, the email messages will be available when you enable iCloud on your new iPad.  If it is an iMap account like Gmail, the messages will be redownloaded from their server.  
    Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT2109
    Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device
    You can use iCloud or iTunes to transfer content from your current iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to another device.
    Use iCloud Backup
    Follow these steps if both your devices use iOS 5 or later and you have an iCloud account. If not, please follow the iTunes steps below.
    You can use iCloud Backup to back up your previous device and then restore the backup to a new device. Your saved messages, email accounts, photos, notes, and other personal settings will be transferred to your new device.
    See more about iCloud Backup.
    Turn on iCloud Backup
    Start by backing up your old device to iCloud:
    Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    Turn on iCloud Backup.
    You may want to connect to power and turn Wi-Fi on.
    Back up now
    iCloud backs up your device once a day. To back up your device before you transfer content:
    Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    Tap Back Up Now.
    Wait until the backup finishes. How long it will take depends on how big the backup is and how fast your Internet connection is.
    Set up your new device
    When the backup of your old device is finished, turn on your new device. Follow the setup assistant, which will ask you to choose these things:
    Your language and country
    Whether to enable Location Services
    A Wi-Fi network
    If you've already set up your device, you can reset it so that you can go through the iOS Setup Assistant again and restore from your backup. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do this only if you already have a backup.
    Restore from iCloud Backup
    When you're asked to set up:
    Choose Restore from iCloud Backup.
    Tap next.
    Enter your Apple ID and password.
    Choose the backup
    Choose the backup of your old device and tap Restore. Wait until the device finishes restoring from the backup.
    How long it will take depends on how big the backup is and how fast your Internet connection is.
    Sync other content from iTunes
    When the restore finishes, your device will restart. You should connect the device to iTunes to sync data that isn't in the backup (such as music, videos, or apps that you didn't purchase from the iTunes Store or the App Store ). To change the type of content that syncs, click the syncing tabs in iTunes.
    Enter your passwords
    When you're restoring an iCloud backup to a new device, you'll need to enter your password for your Apple ID, email and other accounts, and voicemail. If you've forgotten your voicemail password, contact your carrier.

    Learn how to set up your old iPhone to be like an iPod touch (without a carrier plan)
    Use iTunes
    If you don't have an iCloud account or you just want to keep a backup on your computer, you can use iTunes to back up and transfer content on your device.
    Get ready
    Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer and the latest version of iOS on your original device.
    You can't install a backup of a newer version of iOS onto devices that are using earlier versions of iOS. If your backup came from a device that has a newer version of iOS installed, update your new device before you transfer your data. For help, see Unable to restore from a backup of a newer iOS device.
    Back up and transfer
    First, back up your old device using iTunes. You can also encrypt the backup so that it remembers the passwords for your email, Wi-Fi, and more when you transfer to the new device. Otherwise, you can re-enter these passwords on the new device.
    Then transfer your data from your device to your computer.
    Remove your SIM card
    If your device has a SIM card, use the SIM-extractor tool or a paper clip to remove the SIM from your old device and insert it into your new device. Or if your carrier gave you a new SIM card, use that instead.
    Set up the new device
    When the backup of your old device is finished, turn on your new device. Follow the setup assistant, which will ask you to choose these things:
    Your language and country
    Whether to enable Location Services
    A Wi-Fi network
    If you don’t have a Wi-Fi or cellular data connection, you can also activate by tapping Connect to iTunes.
    Restore the backup
    When prompted to set up your device, select Restore from iTunes Backup.
    Connect to iTunes
    Connect your new device to iTunes, using the same computer you used to back up your current device. iTunes will ask you to restore from backup or set up as new. Select the backup of your old device and choose Continue.
    If the progress bar in iTunes pauses for a while, wait until the restore finishes.
    Sync other content
    When the restore finishes, your device restarts, and then it's ready for you to use.
    Keep your device connected to iTunes to sync content that isn't in the backup (such as music, videos, and apps). To change the type of content that syncs, click the syncing tabs in iTunes.
    Enter your passwords
    If you restored from an unencrypted backup, you'll need to enter the password for your Apple ID, email and other accounts, and voicemail. If you've forgotten your voicemail password, contact your carrier.

  • How can I transfer purchased itunes from my computer to my iPod without losing/erasing the current songs on my iPod?

    How can I transfer purchased iTunes from my computer to my iPod without losing all the songs I currently have on my iPod?  I've already burned the purchased songs onto DVDs, but they still aren't recognized as authorized songs that I can copy onto my iPod.  One other note:  The songs I purchased were done so with iTune versions much earlier than 10.0, does that matter?  I couldn't tell you what version though.   

    Not sure what you are saying.
    What is stopping you from adding the songs?
    Are you getting an error message?
    What does it say?

  • My 1st ipod was lost. My library is on a Dell with Windows.  I registered my new ipod to a Mac.  How can I get my library from Windows onto my new Ipod?

    My 1st ipod was lost. My library is on a Dell with Windows.  I registered my new ipod to a Mac.  How can I get my library from Windows onto my new Ipod?

    Thank you for your help.  I am still having trouble.  As you can tell, I am not technologically advanced AT ALL.  My music is all showing up in the library but when I go to file in the top left corner, Sync is greyed out and I cannot select it.  I'm gonna continue to try this.  It's been a long time since I had my 1st ipod and things have changed so much I will probably need to research this stuff.  Thanks again for your help.
