How do I transfer an Itunes library from my Ipod to a library on a new computer? The original library was built on a laptop that no longer boots.

I built an Itunes library for my Shuffle on an old laptop which no longer boots. I have since built a new library on my main computer and want to transfer the library that is still on the Ipod to the new library so I can add some new tunes. How do I do that? Thanks!

You can't transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store (and you can also re-download purchases on the iTunes Store Purchased page). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
Once the song files are on your new computer, drag the files (or the folder containing the files) to the iTunes window to add them to the iTunes library.

I have an old iPod Classic with 80 GB (I think) of space. I saved all my songs in an external hard drive, but the iTunes library resided in an old computer (no longer working). Can I get the libray from my iPod and use it in my new computer (Windows)?

Don't agree. I have two accounts, one for work which I set up years ago and bought a few tracks. I've recently bought iPhone and iPad and created a home ID and wanted to transfer the old purchaces. Everyone says it can't be done, but I've done it.
1. on the iPhone/iPad change your "store" Apple ID to the one you want ot transfer from.
2. go into iTune on the device and download the purchaces.
3. on you PC/Mac change the iTunes login to the same as the device's ID
4. sync your device
5. change both ID's back and the purchaces stay on both iTunes and your device.
Delmar,
The procedure you describe is putting content from two different IDs into a single library, which can readily be done.
However, each item of purchased content will still be tied to the ID from which it was originally purchased, and they will be treated separately for purposes of Cloud, Match, Purchase History, etc.

There's a couple of things you can do. First, on your Mac, log in to iTunes with your Apple ID. This will allow you to download the songs you've already purchased on iTunes. Transferring the files manually can be tideous, so I would reccommend calling Apple Support and they will guide your through it, or you can schedule an appointment at an Apple Retail Store, and they will help take care of it for you.
Hope this helps,
