    If you were using a Mac you could use a program but AFAIK there is nothing similar yet for the PC.
    However, you should have a backup of your music, correct? Just restore from that backup to your computer (and, if not, at least this will teach you the importance of always backing up your music purchases onto writable media like DVD).

  • How do I take the music from my iPod and load it onto a new computer?

    I had to clear the contents from my hard drive and reload everything.  When I restart iTunes, I can't get my music back.  I don't care if it's on this computer again or another computer, but does anyone have any advice how I can just get my music?  I have the iPod with all the music on it.

  • I had dowloaded all of my itunes library to my iphone from my home computer/my computer crashed and all of the music that was on my itunes is only on my iphone now. How do I take that music from my iphone and put it onto my itunes on my new computer?

    I had downloaded all of my itunes library to my iphone from my home computer, My home computer crashed and all my itunes library was lost but it is still on my iphone. Is there a way that I can take all the music on my iphone that is all of my music from my itunes from my old computer and download it to my new computer that I have another itunes on? I tried to sync the music on my iphone to my itunes and I could not figure out a way to sync the music without erasing all of the music on my iphone. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    For music that you've purchased from Apple that are on your iPhone you should be able to copy to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. Also if you are in the US then you should be able to re-download past music purchases for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    For your own music that you've copied, then if you haven't got a backup on, for example, external drives or CDs/DVDs then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still exist and work

  • I have a new Pc and installed Itunes, plugged in my Ipod, logged into Itunes, but it only shows some of my music. How can I take the music from my Ipod to Itunes? do I sync my ipod, or will that only sync Itunes songs and I will loose what is on my Ipod?

    I have a new PC, I have downloaded Itunes, logged in and plugged in my Ipod. How do I make sure that all my music moves from my Ipod to Itunes?  Currently it is only showing what I have purchased from Itunes on Itunes, not my entire library.

  • How do i take music from my Ipod and put back into my CPU.

    I lost some music files on my i tunes, but i still have all of these songs on my i pod. How do i take the music off my Ipod and put it back into my i tunes. I have a PC using windows XP. I lost a total of 1381 songs. I lost these song by trying to down load Music into a T-Moble SideKick 3. I was told by the sales rep that the Sidekick 3 was, I tunes friendly. Yeah right!!!!
    Bottom line is i just want to take what i have in my ipod and put it back into my PC. Can this be done? If so please help.

    I am in the same predicament. My computer crashed and windows was destroyed. Windows has been reinstalled and my files were retrieved and stored in a backup harddrive. I also lost itunes and have reinstalled it but I have no music in my library and can't find my complete library in my retrieved files. I need to find out how to restore my itunes library from my ipod as well. I don't want to lose all my music on the ipod if I sync with itunes that has an empty library.

    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. For music that you've bought from other sources or copied from your own CDs then have you not got a backup of them on, for example, an external drive that you can copy onto the computer ? If not then you will need to find a third-party program to copy them off - this post mentions some that were around a couple of years ago, whether they still exist and work I don't know.

  • How do I transfer the music from my iPod to my new IMac computer (95% of the music on it is from CD's I own)?

    How do I transfer the music from my IPod to my new IMac computer?  I just changed from a PC to IMac. 95% of the music on it is from CD's I own and the ITunes on the new IMac is only recongnizing the ones I bought off of ITunes.

    That is correct.  The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases.
    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
