    You really need to get an external drive and put together a backup plan.

  • How do I transfer songs from my ipod mini to my computer or to my itunes library? Songs/playlists show up as being on ipod but cant move to itunes library.

    How do I transfer songs from my ipod mini to either my computer or to my itunes library.

    Hello Christopher,
    There are 2 ways to go about this.  One is to use the manual method which is a little different depending on whether or not you use a Mac or a PC or you can opt to use a 3rd party software that can help you accomplish the task as well.  See this older thread for a list of possible software you could use.

  • How can I transfer photos from my ipod touch to my computer

    How can I transfer photos from my iPod touch to my laptop.?

    What photos?
    Photos synced from computer to ipod are one way only  - computer to ipod.  As they came from your computer in the first place, they should still be there.
    Pics taken with ipod are imported as with any digital camera.

  • How can I transfer music from my iPod to a new laptop?

    I recently got a new laptop because my old laptop, in which all of my music is in, is about to break down. So just about a few days ago my laptop just died, i cannot turn it on, and all of my music is in there. How can i transfer all of my music onto my new laptop using my ipod, and how will I be able to keep downloading music on my new laptop. Thanks!

    You still got your music in your iPod? There is a way to transfer it to your new laptop.
    You can simply transfer music from iPod to computer with a handy tool called iOS Transfer.
    iOS Transfer is a program specifically designed to deal with problem of transformation between iPod and Computer.

  • How do i get songs from my iPod to a new computer?

    my old computer died so i got a new one and it doesnt have any of my songs and if my iPod dies or something i lose all my songs. How do i get my song from my iPod to my new comp?

    You can't sync your music back from an iPod to iTunes, the transfer of music is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the files from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward.

  • How do I transfer music from an iPod to a new computer, with an existing iTunes account that is not mine, or to an iPad??

    My computer crashed and I lost my iTunes library and music. The music is however on my iPod 5th Generation. How do I move my music to my husbands computer, where he has his own music....or how do I transfer or add my music from my iPod to my iPad?
    I also lost all my gift card money on my iTunes account. Can I add my iTunes account to a computer that already has an iTunes account?

    I have read this, but it does not help. My crashed computer had my iTunes library with MY iTunes ID. The new computer and iPad that i want to transfer my music to, that is on my iPod, is under a different iTunes account. Can I still transfer my music from my iPod to a new computer that has a different ID?

  • How can I move music from my iPod to my new computer if my computer can't SEE the music from the source?!?

    I have read through lots of suggestions for moving my music from my iPod to my new computer...but can not seem to overcome a very difficult hurdle:
    When I connect my very old iPod to my computer and click on the icon to open it, only 3 folders come up:  Calendars, Contacts and Notes.  I cannot "backup" anything useful here!
    When I open iTunes, the program can see my iPod, and lists the complete library...but I cannot KEEP it in my computer!  WHY?!?
    When I go to iTunes > File > Library, I do not get a "backup" option to use to backup my iPod music, either.
    HELP, please.  I have spent hours fiddling around trying to figure out how to do this, and am getting crankier and crankier.
    Thanks in advance...

  • How do I transfer music from my ipod to a new computer?

    I need to move all the music from my ipod to a new computer so I can put it in iTunes?

    The best way is to use the backup you made on the old computer and restore the iTunes folder to the new computer. No backup? The if the old computer is still working using an external device to copy the iTunes folder from the old computer and copy it to the new one.
    If neither of the above are doable, and you have a PC, use this:

  • How do I transfer files from my iPod to my new computer when most of my content is ripped from discs, not purchased from iTunes?

    All of the topics I've read that discuss transferring files from an old iPod, to a new computer don't address the issue of the files NOT being purchased from iTunes. My windows vista computer died, and I downloaded the iTunes software onto my new 8.1 computer, but my "classic", with 90G of content won't sync with the new iTunes. Yes, I have authorized the new computer. Of course, I had no chance to download my library from my old computer, to my new, because the old one's dead. It seems that you aren't allowed to transfer your entire library,  just merch from iTunes. I feel there must be a work around, and Apple's just making it difficult for some reason. I'd hate to think I have to go through the time comsuming task of reloading thousands of CDs to my new computer. Any help out there? I would think this scenario happens all the time.

    Unfortunately, it does happen all the time.
    It's always been a sensible idea to maintain a backup of your iTunes Library on something like an external hard drive. iTunes does not allow for transfer from the iPod to iTunes, in the main, to prevent illegal copying of music.
    I believe a programme such as Yamipod will allow you to copy from an iPod to iTunes, although I've never tried it.
