How do I get music off an old iPod and put it on a new iPhone?

I have an older model iPod that was synced to my computer back in 2007. Obviously that computer is LONG gone. What I'd like to do now is transfer all the music off the iPod to my new iPhone but I can't figure out how. I downloaded iTunes and plugged in my iPod and iPhone but it hasn't seemed to help.
How do I do this?

See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

Once the music from the old iPod is back in iTunes, configure to sync to your iPhone.

How do i get music off an old ipod classic into my windows 8 system when it doesn't find the ipod when i plug it into the usb?

Hi aekdbaker ,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have music on your iPod that you would like to transfer into your iTunes library on your Mac.
If those songs you wish to transfer were purchased, there are two different ways you can accomplish this. The first way, which does not even require you connecting your iPod to the computer, would be to re-download them from iTunes in the Cloud directly to your iTunes library. Directly connecting your iPod to your Mac to transfer purchases is an option as well. Instructions for both methods of gathering your past purchases in your iTunes library on your Mac are available in the attached article.

Hi,I have made a new Apple ID and logged in on my phone, on settings, but the app store is still using my old one. How do I get rid of the old ID and replace it with the new one?

You could use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?

How do I get music from my old ipod to new one please ?

I have tried bbut cannot seem to get music from my old ipod to my new ipod. I lost old one long ago and recently found it and much loved n' missed songs . I since replaced pc and saved no music . I tried connecting both ipods to my laptop but no luck getting songs from old to new !! Any help would be greattly appreciated pelase n' thank you :-)

Hi Lea64!
If your music was ripped from CDs, you will need to re-rip it to your iTunes library on your new computer. But if you bought your music from iTunes, they are still in iCloud, and you can redownload them at no cost. Sign in to the iTunes Store on your computer, then click on "Purchased" on the list on the right hand side. You'll see everything you have ever bought from iTunes in there, and anything that's not currently on your computer will have a little cloud with a downward pointing arrow in it. Click on the cloud symbol next to whatever you want to download, and it will download to your computer. Plug in your iPod and synch it, and you're done. Hope this helps!

HT4528 if i get a new can i take my sim card out of my old phone and put it in my new iphone?

if i get a new iphone can i take my old sim card out from my old iphone and put it in my new iphone?

No. iPhone 4S uses microsim, iPhone 5 uses nanosim.

Does anyone have suggestions for a legitimate file extracting program? I need to get music off my old IPod (the ITunes it's on is on an old computer that no longer works) and onto my new computer so I can download it to my new IPod.

Thank you!

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):

HT4098 I have a subscription to The Telegraph which I purchased before changing my email and apple ID. How can I get iTunes to transfer this purchase and put it under my new apple ID?

have a subscription to The Telegraph which I purchased before changing my email and apple ID. How can I get iTunes to change it to current ID

Did you create a NEW Apple ID or did you change the email address for your OLD Apple ID? This will affect how you update apps in the future.
Anyway, go to Settings/iTunes&App Stores, log out, then log in with the new ID.

Can i take music off of my ipod and put it in itunes using icloud?

My computer crashed in august. My itunes recovery disks failed and so did my attempt to recover music from my computer. Now all my music is on my ipod and I would like a way to take that music and put it in itunes on my new pc. Does anyone know if icloud can help me with this problem?

You can re-download songs you have already purchsed from iTunes one-by-one if you need to. There is no way to mass-download your entire library though, and this only applies to songs purchased through iTunes. There is no way to upload all of your music to iCloud. The iTunes Match service for $25 per year allows you to store your music in the cloud, but for you I think it's already too late. I don't think you can send all your music to iTunes Match directly from your iPod.
I would recommend you find an iPod manager program you can use to copy the music off the iPod directly. A quick Google search should reveal plenty of options.

How do you get music off of your Ipod that is not wanted?

My ipod has automatically taken all of my music from my itunes library. However there is some music that I do not want to have on it. How do I take selected songs off the ipod? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

Use your iTunes preferences (on the top menu bar: iTunes->preferences->ipod
(with your iPod connected to the computer) and change the transfer preferences to specific play lists or set it to manual update (see below for deleting individual songs). I have several play lists on iTunes which I automatically update to the iPod.
(from the iTunes HELP file under "ipod preference, deleting songs..."
Deleting songs from your iPod, iPod mini, or iPod shuffle
You can remove individual songs from your iPod, iPod mini, or iPod shuffle. (Deleting a song from your iPod does not delete it from your iTunes music library.)
¥
To delete a song from your iPod or iPod mini, first make sure the player is set up to transfer songs manually (in the iPod pane of iTunes Preferences). Then select the player in the Source list, select the song you want to delete, and press the Delete key.
¥
To delete a song from your iPod shuffle, make sure your iPod shuffle is attached to your computer, then select the song you want to delete in the iPod shuffle playlist, and then press the Delete key on your keyboard.
For information about setting up your iPod or iPod mini to transfer songs manually, search "iTunes and Music Store Help."

HT1495 how do I get music from an old ipod onto my new iphone 5?

I have an old i pod that doesnt work on the cloud when I connect my iphone 5 to my account not all of my music appears

See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. Last link in the table to the iLounge article is probably all you really need for older iPods, though you'll need to use the iTunes transfer purchases command to retrieve any ClickWheel Games. Once everything is in your library you can add it to the iPhone.

Any help would be appreciated

No I don't have another computer. I was thinking initially I would put them on my ipad but since I don't have enough gb maybe I can store them in some cloud thing? Sorry am a bit of a Luddite when it comes to all this. I just need to have them stored someplace and accessible to play when I need to. Thanks for your help.

How do I get pictures off my Old de-active device?

How do I get pictures off my old de active device. The device still works I just upgraded and now would like my pictures put on my PC.

If the device has an SD card (micro SD) then you can save the pics to that and transfer to your PC. If there is no SD option, you can reactivate the device, text the pics to your email individually, then reactivate the new phone.
Or you can try BitPim - it may work on your old device, just google for it.
