Hey, I had the exact same issue. The way that Apple explains to do it is change your iPod into hardrive mode by messing with the preferences. While your iPod is hooked up to your old compuer, go into preferences and check the box saying enable disk use. Then your iPod will appear on the desktop and you can drag the song files into it. I don't know if you can transfer them all at once or not. Anyway, then you hook up the iPod into the new computer and drag the songs into iTunes. I had trouble doing this and it erased all my songs one time but I think it was an error on my part. Another way to do it is to send the song files through AIM. Have someone on the old computer and you on the new one and send them in large bunches to the new computer. Yet another way is to e-mail them to yourself and download them on to the new computer. The sure-fire way (and the way I finally succumbed to but it worked!) is to download the program iPodCopy on the new computer and follow the instructions to have your music quickly and easily copied. It does cost $17.00 dollars to download but I was willing to pay the price to have my music transferred hassle-free. Just type iPodCopy into google and it should come up. After months of trying and searching how to transfer my music to the new computer, this was my last resort and it was well worth it!
I hope my suggestions help you out in your iPod escapades!
Let me know if they work. Buenas Suerte.

    There's some third party applications available for recovering content off an iPod, iPhone or iPad. The following article is pretty old (2008) so it would be best to reality-check the capabilities and availability of the various listed items prior to opting for a particular product:

  • How can i transfer all my stuff in iphone to itunes in my new computer?

    How can i transfer all my stuff to i tunes in my new computer?
    (will all stuff be removed in my iphone if i just sync it with the new downloaded i tunes?)

    No, as long as the iTunes ID you use is the same one as on your iPhone and your old computer.
    But it goes without saying you should make a backup first.

  • How do I transfer all of my songs from Iphone to itunes as lost everything, some songs are not bought from itunes and have been from borrowed CD's but I really want them in itunes library?

    Hello, Please help as I tunes havent got back to me yet!!
    A couple of months ago, I lost all of my music/itunes etc as my computer needed a complete restore. When it re-installed itunes there was no songs on it at all and would only let me transfer the purchases made on my iphone from itunes back onto my library. The problem I have is that I want to upgrade my phone to the iphone4 but dont want to lose all of the songs on my iphone, some are downloaded from the itunes, most are from CD's that I still own but there are some great songs that I have put on from borrowed CD's or another download company i.e. hmv music downloads and those are the songs it will not let me transfer into the library on my computer so when I get the new phone, I could just sync and they will all be there.
    Please help as I do not want to lose any of my songs
    Thank you

    for purchases from the iTunes store do this:
    connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    for everything else check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • HT5096 How do I transfer all of my stuff from a laptop to my new iMac using an external hard drive from Time Machine?

    I have had a laptop for years.  I backed up the entire hard drive using Time Machine onto an external hard drive.  We now have a new iMac and I am trying to put everything from my old lap top onto our new computer.  I know it's probably simple but I'm clueless.  Please help. 

    Connect the drive and use the Migration Assistant to restore the backup. This can either be done as part of the setup process or on its own; the Migration Assistant is located in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and will migrate user data into a newly-created account.

    Only if the songs were bought from iTunes, you use transfer purchases.
    If not, you need a 3rd party tools.

    Restore from backup if you have one.
    You can also transfer stuff from your iPod if you have one:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/11857427#11857427
    If you are in the US or Canada you can download purchased music from the Purchased link in the iTunes store.
    Otherwise if the disk drive is OK in your Old PC you can remove it and put it in a USB drive enclosure and then use it as an external disk on your new PC, then you copy the muisc from there.

    How do I transfer all photos and music from my old iphone 3gs to new iphone 4s? I have a new laptop because the old one broke and so do not have non camera roll photos or music stored anywhere apart from the iphone 3gs and cannot update io5 on the iphone 3gs without erasibng everything. i need help!!!

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • How do I transfer all of my contacts from iCloud to Outlook ?

    Forgive my ignorance, I am a noob... For my work, I use both an iPhone and a Balckberry, which I sync with Outlook. How do I transfer all of my contacts from my iPhone / iCloud to Microsoft Outlook so that I can put them on my Blackberry as well ? Thank you for your response, even though this may have been covered before.

    Back up your Outlook Contacts first. (Select all and drag them to an empty folder).
    Back up your iPhone Contacts. (Use an app from App Store like "Multi Edit" or search for "Contacts Backup".
    Download and install "iCloud Control Panel for Windows".
    Sign in with your Apple ID.
    Sync Contacts with Outlook
    The iPhone and Outlook Contacts will be MERGE.
    After you sync BB with Outlook you will have ALL of your Contacts on both devices and Outlook.
