How do I sync my IPOD to my (newly restored/ newly installed) ITUNES library/Account? Want to keep my Ipod songs and Transfer whats on IPOD to ITUNES..? HELP!?

I recently had to wipe my computer (PC), because of virus, etc destruction, so I'm reloading programs, etc. and now my newly reinstalled ITunes account is only reading I guess the initial library that I had when first using it, so many years ago...not reading purchases or updated playlists, etc...which ARE ON MY IPOD, (classic, 30G), and very importatn for me for work because I teach dance and need my music and playlists, etc. How can I sync my IPOD to my ITUNEs library without deleting or currupting all the music on my IPOD???! HELP! Never understood why Itunes is so tricky, and don't want to destroy my IPOD music...but need to transfer the music from my IPOD to my ITUNes library!..HELP?

  • Sync the old iphone with newly installed iTunes....

    Hi,
    I recently formatted my laptop and hence my iTunes got erased ( everything). Now when I try to connect my iPhone4 with the laptop and try to sync it, it says, everything on the iphone will sync with iTunes, which obviously would erase every app that I'd installed on my phone.
    What can be done to resolve this??? Also, I had not taken a backup on iCloud....Please help....

    Howdy Paddy275,
    I would recommend copying your library from the other computer to this one. This article will help with that:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
    The content WILL be wiped when you sync the phone. But if you have the library that has all your media in it copied over and you can see it all in iTunes, then you will need to select what to sync back over. Use this to assist with that if needed.

    If you cannot copy the original library to your new computer, then you can always redownload your past purchases free of charge from the iTunes store.

    You don't.  You synch your iPod to your computer.  There's no way to synch from iPad to iPod.  You can tranfer the same playlists to your iPod from the computer.

    Sync transfer is one way, matching the device content to the content on the computer, except purchased content as mentioned above.  For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing):

    In general do not regard your i-device as a reliable unique storage for your media. It is not a backup device and everything is structured around you maintaining a backup of your media on a computer backup.

    i have a i tunes account but laptop is broken . how do i sync my ipod to a new laptop?

    Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
    You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
    As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software to copy over. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

  • My ipod is somehow synced to another library, because I plugged the charger to a wall. How can I sync my ipod shuffle back to the original Itunes library without erasing my current data in the Ipod shuffle?

    ",the owner sold the ipod without clearing the songs and since the songs were not puchased from the itunes store then i believe i now own the songs"
    Not true at all.
    It does not matter where the songs came from, they are not yours and the previous owner does not own the right to distribute them to others.
    The law is the same with downloads and cds and any other medium.
