How do I move music from my iPod to iTunes

I need to update my ipod software, but it says I have purchased music not in my itunes library. After (finally) locating the incriminating Ke$ha album, I cannot transfer it. I cannot drag it from my ipod, but it does not show up in my purchased music or anywhere I can drag from. Copy/pasta does not help.
I shouldnt think it makes a difference, but I did buy it on my ipod from a different internet connection than one I normally use.
How can I move this stuff around?
Bought on my ipod touch.

Have you failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer?
The ipod is not a storage/backup device. It simply mirrors the selected content of the computer to which you sync.
The sync is one way - computer to ipod. the only exception is itunes purchases: FIle>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You may be able to purchase a 3rd party program ( not supported by Apple) to do this.

No Apple supported way, they do not allow music out of the iPod for copyright reasons, but there are several programs you can run on your PC to copy the iPod contents to the PC. Check on the iLounge site for a lot of helpful information and links to the software you will need.

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.

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 you import music from an ipod to itunes?

If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod. And here is a guide about how to import music from iPod to iTunes. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

How do you transfer music from your ipod to itunes match? I recently bought itunes match and it wont allow me to add songs from my ipod to the music library and match. Before I bought it, it would not allow me to transfer it either. After my purchase, I thought it would solve the problem but it did not. Any solutions?

You can't do it from an iPod, you can only do it from your computer's iTunes

How do I import music from my iPod to iTunes

Hi,
I have just bought a new computer because i had to throw my old one out and it was not possible to back up my music from the hard drive.
However, i have my entire music collection on my iPod clssic.
I have downloaded and installed iTunes on to my brand new laptop and can not workout how to import the music from my iPod.
When I try I get a warning message stating that my iPod is paired with another library and if I attempt to sync it with the iTunes I have just installed then it will erase the content of my iPod and replace it with the content of my library (which is empty at present)
Can anyone help please?
Jimbob

Connect your iPod to your new computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. 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 or iPhone to a computer
The transfer of content from 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. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

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.

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 move music from my iPod Touch to my MacbookPro?

I have many songs on my iPodTouch that were not purchases from the iTunes store. These songs on my iPodTouch were originally on a different computer. They have been erased from the previous computer. I wish to move the songs from my iPodTouch to my MacbookPro.
When I plugged my iPodTouch into my MacbookPro (which has no songs), it started to sync (which I don't want to do). I canceled the sync, and I don't know what to do from there. I kind of want to do a reverse sync or something similar.

Sorry, it does not work that way. Music is intended to go from your computer to the iPod. Going the other way is contrary to the design and is not trivial.
Music purchased through iTunes can always be downloaded again, provided it is still available in the iTunes Store.
To extract music from your iPod requires the assistance of third party utilities. Search Apple Support Communities for recommendations.
Here is an old post. Since it is so dated some of the links may not work:
