How do i copy music from one ipod to another with 1 cord?

how do i copy music from one ipod to another with 1 cord?

You cannot copy content directly from one iPod to another. If the music was purchased from the iTunes Store, you have the following options:
- sync the iPod to your computer, transfer the content to iTunes, and then connect the other iPod and sync from iTunes
- use iCloud (which requires iOS 5).
- download the music from from the iTunes Store to the second iPod. See:

  • HT1296 how do you transfer music from one ipod to another with different itunes accounts?

    I have a friend who has a first generation ipod that was synced with another itunes account.  He no longer has access to it and forgot login and password.  I bought him another ipod touch 4th generation.  I opened up a new itunes account for him.  He has 470 songs on the old ipod that we want to put on the new ipod touch.  How do we do it with two different itunes.  We wish to use the new account.  Thanks for any help

    Copy the music for the old iPod to his computer by:

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    There is more than one way, but to get it all on all devices, connect the first device to iTunes and choose to transfer the music from the device from the file menu. Once everything is in iTunes connect the second device, select the device in the device list, navigate to the music tab and check the content you wish to sync, click apply/sync.

    how do i download music from one ipod to another ipod ?

    It needs to go through your computer's iTunes library.  If all the songs on the iPods are already in your computer's iTunes library, just sync each iPod as desired from your iTunes library. 
    If the songs on your iPods are not in your iTunes library, the approach here is to first off-load the song files from the iPods to your computer's hard drive.  Then, add the song files to your iTunes library, so that it is "consolidated" with ALL of your music.
    You cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store.  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once you have ALL of your music in one iTunes library on your computer, sync your iPods as desired.

    How do I move music from one ipod to another ipod?

    The music that is on the one iPod must be stored in an iTunes library first before it can be synced/added to the other one.  You cannot transfer content directly from one iDevice to another.

  • How can I copy songs from one iPod to another?

    I received a new iPod Classic (last generation) and I'm trying to transfer my songs from my old iPod Nano (also last generation).
    My iTunes library is also split up between my two parent's houses and I only have half the songs on my Nano in this computer's library.
    Is there a way to copy only the songs on the +iPod Nano+ (not the iTunes library) and drop them onto the new iPod?

    *Is there a way to copy only the songs on the iPod Nano (not the iTunes library) and drop them onto the new iPod?*
    You can't copy directly from one iPod to another, you have to copy the songs back to iTunes and update the new iPod from there. 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 to a computer
    The transfer of content from other 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.

    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod

  • How do you transfer music from one iPod to another?

    How do you transfer all of your music from one iPod to another DIRECTLY from that iPod? Not all of the music on my iPod is in my library so I'm not sure how to transfer it, if it's even possible.

    Search for an app that may utilize BlueTooth to do that.

  • HT1329 How do I move music from one iPod to another?

    I just bought an iPhone and want to move music from my old iPod to my new phone.  Any suggestions?

    It needs to go through iTunes.  But there is no way to transfer songs from iPod to iTunes library (except for music you purchased from iTunes Store).  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once the song files are on your computer, add them to your iTunes library.  You can then sync your iPhone to the iTunes library.
    Alternately, if you sign up for the iTunes Match service, your iTunes music library on your computer will become available from iCloud.  You can set your new iPhone (assuming you bought a "new" iPhone) to sync from iCloud, instead of from your computer's iTunes.  All of your music will be available wirelessly, wherever you have an Internet connection.
