How do I transfer music from my iPod nano 4 to my new mac when my old one is broken

Well, I have an iPod nano 4 and a MacBook Pro (2009 or whatever) with iTunes 11 and my old hard drive broke in it and I lost all my music. I did not have a backup but I realised I still had it all on my nano. I need to transfer it all to my computer without re-downloading all the music but I don't know how. I'm able to open up the iPod in iTunes and look at the music on it, play it and even copy it (when it's connected) but I can't paste it or drag it anywhere. Please will someone help me.

iTunes will alow you to transfer your itunes purchases (plug in iPod, right click on device in itunes, select transfer purchases). For the rest of your music, try this: http://www.transferpod.com/

  • How can I transfer music from my iPod touch to my new mac without a backup?

    I've seen a lot of tutorials on how to do this from various websites. Some are for windows only and some only apply to iPods that aren't touches. What I want to know is, how can i transfer my music from iPod touch to my Mac without losing everything and without having to buy all my music over again (none of my music was purchased on iTunes)? It'll break my heart that 600 songs are all gone simply because I don't have a backup or I didn't purchase from iTunes. There has to be a way to do this. Help?

    You need a third-party program like one of those discussed here.

  • How can i transfer music from my Ipod nano to my new hard drive

    Hi, I have a I pod Nano 6th edition.I downloaded music from my CD collection and I purchased a few CD's from ITunes. I had problems with the hard drive and had to have a new hard drive installed. I was advised to save my ITunes library and my photos and any other important documents on my hard drive.I saved everything onto a pen drive.
    I have tried to reinstall everything onto my new hard drive. I had no problem with the photos or documents,but the ITunes folders are giving me problems.
    I have downloaded the updated ITunes web site onto my new hard drive.I have tried to send the folder from pen drive to the iTunes folder and My Music folder.
    I also tried dragging the folder from the pen drive to the my music folder. For some reason 3 tracks from about 4 hundred have arrived in the My Music Folder.
    I am afraid to plug my Ipod into the laptop as I was told I could lose every thing
    Is there any way to solve my problem??
    Help
