How do i transfer Ipod music to Touch

Hey,
I'm planning on buying a touch in the very near future, however, I need this answered. Is there a way to transfer the songs from my IPOD5G to my itunes or touch which will include the PLAYCOUNT? If that is possible, the purchase is pretty much made.

Hello G_homes,
Is there a way to transfer the songs from my IPOD5G to my itunes or touch which will include the PLAYCOUNT?
Have you not synced the 5G iPod to your computer lately? Doing so will transfer information such as playcounts back over to iTunes, unless you manually manage your iPod's contents, which in that case your iPod does not keep track of such information. From there, this kind of information will sync over to your new iPod Touch once you sync it with your library.

  • How do I transfer iPod music to iTunes libary?

    I have had many problems this weekend trying to share music with my sons iPod. Having eventually given up on sending him the files I have been advised to plug his iPod into my iTunes and update manually. I have dragged the selected songs to his iPod and they are there!!! (surprise surprise) But now I want to organise them for him into playlists - so when I plug his iPod back into his pc and open iTunes on manual update I am unable to move any of the tracks from his iPod to his iTunes. I would really apreciate some help on how to do this the less complicated way. I have read in other postings that you can get a third party software to do it - but there must be an easier way to orgainse it. Any help anyone? SM

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news (having had a look back at your weekend's postings ;~| ).
    iTunes to iPod is designed to be a one-way transfer only. Apple has implemented this limitation as part of their Digital Rights Management (DRM) and their contracts with the Record Companies. To that end you have to use a third party application which is unfortunate because this is inevitable more complicated then if Apple had implemented it.
    This post by Zevoneer has a good list.

  • 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 can I transfer my music from ipod nano to iphone?

    hi,
    i'm seriously considering buying an iphone. but before i do, i just have a couple of questions:
    1. How can I transfer my music from ipod nano to iphone?
    2. Will there be an iphone with higher memory capacity than 16gb? If so, when will it be out. (If there will be memory sizes of ipod similar to ipod classic, then i think it's better if i wait a little longer considering that there's only little difference in the price).
    Thank you!!

    I don't believe there will be an iPhone with storage capacity equivalent to the iPod Classic anytime soon - at least not within the next month, or even this year or the next.
    The iPod Classic has a hard drive. The iPod Touch and iPhone have Flash storage. Flash storage is more expensive than the hard drive equivalent, but the cost for Flash storage is coming down - supply an demand is probably helping this. The iPod Touch has double the storage capacity of the largest iPhone storage capacity since the iPod Touch doesn't include a cell phone - the case has more room for two 16GB Flash drives. More than likely there will be a 32GB iPhone at some point, but I believe it will be a while before we see a 64GB iPhone or larger approaching the storage capacity that is available with an iPod Classic.

    It should sync the same if the songs are the same. You can try:
    - Unsyncing all music and resysncing
    - Restoring the iPod

  • How do I transfer the music content on my old IPOD (click wheel) to Itunes in my new computer for subsequent transfer to a new IPOD

    How do I transfer music on my old IPOD( click wheel) to Itunes on my new computer(Windows 8) for further transfer to a new IPOD nano

    If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
    1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
    2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
    3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
    If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod onto your computer. And here is a guide about how to transfer iPod music. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.
