How do I get all my songs on my ipod to my computer's itunes?
I have a new laptop and want to download all my songs from my ipod to my new pc's itunes? It seems the only sync is itunes to ipod and that will wipe out my songs on my ipod.
Thanks. Last time my ipod crashed I had to do something similar and download software. apple doesn't make this easy. I swear this ipod is a PIA. Whenever I have to download the newest version to my ipod, it crashes my ipod and I have to take it in to the mac store. Ipod and pc's don't mix.

How to I get ALL my songs from my phone onto my Macbook pro iTunes
So about a week ago I got a new Macbook Pro with retina. I set everything up on it including Itunes. When I was setting up my itunes i signed into my account then took my iphone and synced my iphone to the itunes on the new computer. Everything was showing up on the computer so I though everything had sunk and was backuped. But when I was going through it today I noticed a few of my artist are missing some songs. I tried backing up and syncing the phone to computer again but NOTHING IS WORKING. CAN ANYONE HELP. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
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. To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. 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. See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991 -
How do I get all my music from my ipod onto another computer?
I just recently got a new computer. I want to get all my music (which is on my ipod) onto my new computer. I am not sure how to go about doing this. I don't have the old computer anymore so simply attaching the music to flashdrives and putting them on the new computer is not an option. Is there a way to get the music off my ipod onto my new computer since that is my only option at this point in time? If it is any importance I have Windows 8.
Easy, drag all that music onto your desktop, go to your email and attach them on the email and send it to yourself, then send, go to the other computer, login to your email and go into the email u sent yourself and download the music files.
WAIT:
Not all music files can be attached at the same time about 6 can. -
How do I get my burned songs on my iPod to a computer other than the one I synced with when I loaded them? I purchased a new computer and want to transfer my library to it. The only sync option I get is to erase the ipod and sync it.
By using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

How do I get all the songs from an album to show in the album view? Currently, if an album lists the artist plus a guest artist, those are shown separately and appear to be two different albums on my iPod. How do I get all the songs on that album together on my iPod? If the album is a collaboration wtih many artists, each sond may appear as a separate album.
I used to have this problem.
First, you need to go back on iTunes
you need to go to each of the songs that are having this problem
Click the album so all the songs drop down
Right click the songs that have this problem
Click ' Get info '
Click the tab that says " info '
The box that says ' album artist ' should probably be empty (correct me if I'm wrong)
Click it and type the artist of the entire album, NOT the songs guest artist
as such,
ARTIST
JAY-Z Feat. Justin Timberlake
ALBUM ARTIST
JAY-Z
These should be separate for each artist
If you write the same album artists for each song by that artist, all the songs should be on 1 album -
I had to buy a new laptop after my old one died, after authorizing my new one nearly my whole library has disappeared. How do I get all my songs back?
Likely, because you are now using a different Apple ID and iTunes account. Return to using your old Apple ID and authorize only after you have de-authorized your old computer.
You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.
For more information on authorization and de-authorization: iTunes Store- Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC. -

How do i get all the songs from 1 album to appear as 1 album instead of 3 albums because 2 of the songs feature guest artists in my itunes library?
Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

If the songs in your library are not all in the iTunes Music folder you can consolidate them (Choose File > Library > Consolidate Library). When you consolidate, any songs in the iTunes Library that are not in the iTunes Music Folder are copied to the Music Folder and the Library is updated to point to those new files. Files already in the iTunes Music Folder have no changes made to them: Consolidating your library - Windows

I just got a new macbook pro. How do I get the 900+ songs that I took off of cds into iTunes on my computer from my iPhone. I had no problems syncing the music I had purchased from iTunes. I have tried to sync it using iTunes match, this did not work. I would like to have access to my full library without going into the user profile of my old computer, which is on my new computers hard drive. I would like to eventually delete the old profile so that I have more space on my hard drive.
