How do I transfer music off of my ipod 30gb into my library?

How do I transfer music off of my ipod 30gb into my library?

If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows. The procedure is a bit involved and it won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. This is just a selection (Yamipod has already been mentioned above), you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

  • How do I transfer music from my Clickwheel iPod back into iTunes

    I have recently had a problem with my PC Hard drive. In the process of trying to transfer my music library from my PC Hard drive to an External Hard drive, I have lost all the CD's that I had installed via the PC into iTunes. I have all the Album Artwork and Track Listing but when I click the CD to play the response is that it "cannot be found". Now the only place that has ALL my music is my iPod. Is it possible to find a way to transfer it back into iTunes. Have spoken to Apple and due to Copyright law they are not allowed to advise me how to do it. There's nearly 40+ years of wonderful music sitting on my iPod and I am frightened of losing it ALL.
    Can anyone help please ???

    iPhones are not backup devices.
    Restore the media and other important files from the backup of the computer.

  • How do i get music off an old ipod

    How do i get music off an old ipod classic into my windows 8 system when it doesn't find the ipod when i plug it into the usb?

    Hi aekdbaker ,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you have music on your iPod that you would like to transfer into your iTunes library on your Mac.
    If those songs you wish to transfer were purchased, there are two different ways you can accomplish this. The first way, which does not even require you connecting your iPod to the computer, would be to re-download them from iTunes in the Cloud directly to your iTunes library. Directly connecting your iPod to your Mac to transfer purchases is an option as well. Instructions for both methods of gathering your past purchases in your iTunes library on your Mac are available in the attached article.

  • How do I transfer music off my iphone onto itunes on a new mac. I don't have the laptop I originally synced my iphone up with any more, so how can I do this without it?

    How do I transfer music off my iphone onto itunes on a new mac. I don't have the laptop I originally synced my iphone up with any more, so how can I do this without it?
    I have tried to do this through home sharing but as I don't have the old laptop it wont let me.
    Any HELP please?!?
    Would be much appreciated.

    The iphone is not a backup/storage device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
    Have you failed to do this?

    if from 3rd party you have to put songs on computer and sync from itunes.  Apple doesnt support syncing from ios to itunes so you will have to already have the songs on pc.

    How do you transfer music from an old ipod to a nano?

    Restoring the new iPod from the backup of your old iPod will result in the new iPod being the same as the old iPod except that you will have to reenter keychain items like passwords since keychain items are only restored to the same unless you use an encrypted backup.

  • How can i transfer music from my old ipod to my new ipod that is not in my library

    I just purchased a new Ipod.  How can I transfer all my music from my old ipod onto my new ipod?  I have songs on my old ipod not in my library.  I have a new computer.  I want all my music from my old ipod transferred to my new ipod

    You need to transfer all the music on this old iPod to your iTunes library first before you can sync it to your new iPod.

  • How do I transfer music from an old ipod shuffle to a new one?

    How do I transfer music from my old not working ipod shuffle to a new one?

    If the music on this nonworking Shuffle is not in your iTunes library or in a backup somewhere, I'm afraid you are out of luck. You'll need to redownload any past purchases you had on there via iCloud. It shouldn't cost you anything.  See here for more details.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    For all other non-iTunes purchases content, you'll need to redownload/re-rip it to iTunes again from its original source such as another MP3 store or from CD.
    If the music that was on the older Shuffle is still in your iTunes library, simply configure it to sync to the new Shuffle.
