How do I put my songs on my ipod from my new Mac

I just bought a new mac. I had a PC. I bought a lot of music and tv shows on the pc and just transferred them to the new MAC. I had to authorize this computer, which I did. But, I still cannot place the songs and tv shows onto the new ipod. Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks

Yes it will. When I try to drag and drop the songs/movies, it will not show the plus icon. I believe the problem is that I purchased them on another computer and simply transferred them to this new computer. Then I had to authorize the new computer for listening to the songs. I fear that this computer, though, does not have the license to, say, burn the songs or place them onto the ipod. That is what I would like to do.

    How do I put itunes back on my ipod when i reset my ipod by mistake. Songs are on my computer, but not on my ipod?

    You need to import the music into iTunes on the computer and then sync them to your iPod. See:

  • HT1329 How can I get the songs on my iPod onto my new iTunes library?

    I have an iPod that was synced to another iTunes library on another PC.  The PC died and I replaced it with a MacBook Pro but it keeps saying the iPod is synced w/ another iTunes library.  How can I get the songs on my iPod on the new iTunes library?

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    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):

  • I had my computer worked on and did not back up my itunes library.  how do i put the songs on my ipod back to the itunes library

    I had my computer worked on and did not back up my itunes library.  Now the only music I have is on my ipod.  How would I put the music on my ipod back into my itunes music library?

    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.
    The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases
    You should always maintain a backup copy.  This is very important.

  • How do I put the music on my ipod onto a new computer?

    I read the thing on how to put the music on my ipod onto my new computer and it says you need the old computer which I don't have because it died.
    What else can I do?

    itune blocks this function, you must utilize other tools to achieve that. There're couple of tools for transferring the files between ipod and computer depends on your demands, e.g transfer only songs/videos, transfer photos etc. You can have a look at this review site, hope it useful.

  • How do I get the songs on my ipod to a new installation of ITunes

    I keep Itunes on my corporate PC and I just received a new PC after the old one crashed. I installed ITunes and connected my IPod Nano and was saw a window that indicated my Ipod was linked to a different library and I would like to change. It would seem that I would lose all of my stuff if I answered yes. How do i get my Ipod in sync with the new installed Itunes?
    Thanks!

    t would seem that I would lose all of my stuff if I answered yes.
    \Correct.
    It is in sync with your previous computer.
    How do i get my Ipod in sync with the new installed Itunes?
    The correct answer to your question is to plug in the iPod and select yes.
    It will sync your iPod with your new library which contains nothing.
    Sync between iPod and iTunes is one way. Computer to iPod.
    The question you really want to ask is, “how do I get the songs off my iPod onto my computer?”
    Go to www.yamipod.com.
    This will allow you to get everything of the iPod and into iTunes.

  • How do I put the songs on my iPod onto my iTunes

    I put iTunes onto my laptop and want to put my songs from my iPod onto my iTunes, how do I do this or do I have to rip my cds again to put the songs onto iTunes?

    If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
    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. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    TuneJack Windows Only
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iGadget Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    iRepo Windows Only
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
    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 I put some songs on my iPhone from a different iTunes library?

    I want to be able to put some songs from my computer at home onto my iphone, however my iphone is usually synced with my laptop that I use for school, is it possible to sync some songs without erasing everything?

    Bull.
    By design, an iPhone will sync or manually manage iTunes content with ONE computer/iTunes library at a time. Been this way since the first iPhone was introduced. Any attempt to sync or manually manage iTunes content with a second computer/iTunes library will result in ALL iTunes content being first erased from your phone, to be replaced with the content from the second computer/iTunes library.

  • How do i put my songs back? unplugged from usb and erased my ipod

    I charged my ipod on my work pc (my itunes library is on my home pc) and i unplugged the usb, which of course erased all of my music on my ipod. No big deal I thought, so I took it home and plugged it in but my ipod would not upload the songs in my itunes library. My question is, how do I get all my songs back on my ipod? do I need to "reset" my ipod in order to upload all of my songs from itunes library to ipod again? How do I properly disconnect my ipod from my work pc when I am done charging (it does not give me that icon that you are supposed to click on before you remove the usb) thank you!!

    You can select the option "manually manage music and videos" on itunes, and then select the musics that you want, drag and drop over your Ipod figure on itunes.
    I hope that solves your issue.
    Regards

  • How can i put the songs on my ipod back into my itunes library?

    Most of the songs in my library have been corrupted, so I need to find a way to put the songs back onto the main library so I can transfer them to my new iPod.  A majority of the songs were downloaded from an older computer that is now broken, or were gotten from CDs.  I have tried everything, and I don't want to have to purchase the songs all over again.
