How do I restore my music and playlists from my iPod 4g to my iPod 5g?

I did a "full" backup to my computer of my old iPod, and restored my new iPod from that backup, but my music is completely empty and I don't want to manually put all my music and playlists back together. Help???

FIrst transfer the music from your old iPod to your iTunes by simply syncing it! After that,
How about syncing your new iPod with the 'Sync Music' box checkmarked ?

  • How do I get my music and playlists from iphone to newly authorised computer (some songs are missing)

    I have authorised a new comuter
    when I plug in my iphone, not all the songs in the iphone show up in the music library on the computer - nor my playlists
    How do I get all my songs and playlists from my iphone to my newly authorised computer?

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only ex eption is itunes purchases: File>Deviecs>Transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your old computer or your backup cop of your old computer.

  • Move itunes music and playlists  from one disk to another on same mac pro

    I was running Maverick 10.9.1 on my early 08 Mac Pro. I was having significant problems with the system locking up and having to shut it down manually. After discussing the problem with an Apple Support Rep, I executed a clean installed of Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on a new HDD.  I need to move my itunes library from the old Maverick HD to the new Snow Leopard HD. My Time Machine is corrupted for the old drive.  How can I move my music and playlists from itunes on the old drive Maverick to the new Snow Leopard drive?  I will also need to move my address book contacts.  Any advice will be appreciated.

    Thanks. This solved the iTunes problem.  Any suggestion as to how I cam move or copy my address book to the new HD?  I can't find the location of the address book files on the old HD.

    Yes.  You can sync everything that is currently on your iPod Touch to your newer one. Just plug it in and sync it like you did with the old one.
    If you want to retain your App data, see this article for information on backing up your current iPod Touch and restoring the backup onto a new one.

  • How do I transfer my music and apps from my ipod touch 4g to a new computer?

    The hard drive on my old computer failed so I no longer have access to my itunes library that was saved onto that computer. Is there anyway I can transfer my music and apps to my new computer? I would prefer not using one of those shady online tools... I don't want to lose any of my music or apps since I have some paid ones on there. I'm afraid that if I connect it to the new computer then everything will be lost. If that happens the I'll never be able to get any of my music and apps back (or at least it'll be real difficult). Can anyone please please please help me?

    - Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like discusssed here:
    new PC: Apple Support Communities
    - Try to make a backup of the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Backup
    - Restore the iPod from backup and sync as necessary.

    How do I download my Music and Movies from my Apple TV to my MacBook

    You can't, unless you bought them from the iTunes Store on the Apple TV.
    The Apple TV can receive content only, it does not sync content back, except items that you have purchased on the Apple TV.

    If you sign in to your Apple ID then your apps will be visible by clicking the "purchased" tab at the bottom of the screen.
    Music you've purchased from Apple will appear automatically if you sign in to your account. Other music you'll need to download from your PC assuming you're not subscribed to iTunes Match.

    Keep in mind that the recovered photos will not be in their full resolution, but instead will be the scaled down versions that were optimized in size and resolution to fit your iPod's smaller LCD screen.

  • Changed file directory path on new drive...how do I import my music and playlist?

    Previously I had relocated my iTunes library successfully to an internal secondary drive on my old PC.  Years later, my PC crashed and i had to reinstall everything, also upgraded from xp to Win7.  Due to preference' storage, I installed iTunes (v11) onto my c drive, but want my iTunes library on my secondary d drive. Should mention that I was able to saved all my iTunes music and apps from the crash.  So I installed iTunes on c drive.  Obligatory iTunes media file was installed by program default into my music, of which I deleted.  I opened iTunes and set media file path in advanced setting to d:\itunes, which is the folder that I have prior sub folders for music, apps, TV, movies, etc with xls and itl file as was previous before crash.  Closed and reopened iTunes. Did not recognize library.  So then I moved xls and itl file out of the folder to desktop, closed and reopened.  Recognized some music, and wanted me to download from the cloud music that was physically in the folder.  No apps recognized. Wanted me to turn on home sharing, which I don't think will work in my case as I have no oither computers running itunes .  as there was no option to import a library in v11, I deleted this version.  Next, I installed version 9 from apple support site.  Again deleted iTunes media folder (empty) set by default in my music on c drive.  Set file path in. ITunes advanced tab to d:\itunes as previous, where library is now located.  Then imported xls file in iTunes folder on d drive through library tab.  This worked to a point.   All music in iTunes music folder and playlists were now showing in iTunes.  Apps are not.  Yes, have app tab checked.  Also, when xls file was imported, new iTunes media file folder was recreated in my music on c drive, and duplicate copies of all music files imported from original music folder on d drive were created within the iTunes folder on d drive.  Clarification: my library is set up on d drujve as such: have a main iTunes folder, then sepereate subfloders for TV, music, apps, books, etc., versus having a iTunes media folder containing all these separate subfolders.  So you can imagine, had original music files in music folder, and then had duplicate music files created in the original iTunes folder intermixed with music, app, books sub folders as a result of this step.  Also tried placing music, books, app folders into a media sub folder, with no change.  Never even got to step of syncing ipad.  Just trying to re establish previously working library.  Sorry so long a message.  Stumped.  Help!

    Copy the entire iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.
