How to get ipod songs on new itunes account my old laptop died

My laptop died and I dont have an up to date backup of iTunes.  How do I get all my songs from my ipod on the new iTunes.  When I first installed on my new laptop all the songs appeared, today they are gone, except for the 4 recent songs I purchased.  Any help would be appreciated.

It is a help page so why insult others trying to help you?
Yes, I had a backup, but there was a severe error, and that too corrupted my iTunes...
Perhaps you could have mentioned that in your first post...
Please if you have nothing to do, go elsewhere and be useless...

    Hey kbert73
    I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

    Not if you first do a sync and have iTunes make a backup. However, if your only copy of the iTunes data is in the Touch, then you need to first copy the data to a new iTunes Library using third-party software such as Phone To Mac.

  • HT1329 how to sync ipod to a new computer when your old computer is dead

    how to sync ipod to a new computer when your old computer is dead

    Be very careful when connecting an iPod full of music to an empty iTunes library.There is very real risk of permanently losing all the music.
    To prevent auto sync, before you connect the iPod go to the iTunes preferences and select "devices", then select "disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods".
    An alternative method is to connect the iPod whilst holding down the 'control+shift' keys and do not let them go until your iPod appears in iTunes.
    If you see a message that your iPod is associated with a different library and asks if you want to link to a new one, make sure you press "Cancel".
    If you should click on "Erase and Sync" will erase all the content currently on your iPod and it will be replaced with the content of the iTunes library you just connected to.
    When you've pressed cancel your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list under "devices" and allow you to change the update setting to manage the iPod content manually, and that will let you use your iPod for the time being without the risk of accidentally erasing the contents.
    Then do any of the following to transfer your music from iPod back to the computer/iTunes.
    For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    Find out how to do that here.
    How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
    Once you've done that, you can sync your iPod to iTunes as normal.

    If I installed Itunes and music on a PC that died --- can I download/import the music on my IPOD to a new ITunes account?

    Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device.  Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
    You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

    As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software.  A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

  • Getting iPod to recongnize new iTunes on PC

    I recently lost everything when my Hard Drive crashed and then fried. When I got my new Hard Drive, I had to reinstall iTunes, which in turn meant that I lost all my purchased songs and those I have taken the hours to import into it.
    Also I cannot get my iPod to allow me to take those songs from the iPod and put them back into iTunes, which would be a way to save what I have lost. Is there any way to avoid iTunes from erasing what is already on my iPod and get those songs imported into iTunes.
    Please help!

    You're right that iTunes will not let you copy your songs from the iPod back to you computer.
    You have to use a third-party utility like iPod Rip or senuti (iTunes backwards) to do this. Do a google search and you should find them.
    Let us know if you need any other help.

  • How do i download songs from my itunes account to wifes ipod nano?

    How do download songs from my itunes account to my wifes ipod nano with her own account?

    To what iTunes library is the nano normally synced? The iTunes library you use (i.e. all tracks are in a single iTunes library). An iTunes library in a different user account on that same computer? Another computer? We need to know your setup and scenario before we can offer intelligent advice.

    How do I transfer music from my ipod to my PC without being able to access the old laptop which the ipod was previously synced to?  My old laptop broke, and I want to sync my music and add everything to my new laptop, but if I try to sync my ipod with my new computer it says it is going to delete all my music.  I tried looking at the apple help pages, and it said: First attach your ipod to the computer you want to disconnect from.  Not possible in this case.  What can I do?

  • How to start over with a new itunes account on an old computer

    my daughter transferred all her music from my computer, where she had her itunes account, to her new computer and then went off to college. i can finally use itunes for my own music. how do i get rid of her millions of tunes and change the account info from her to me on what used to be a shared computer and is now all mine?
    i tried many times to set up a new itunes account but get caught in a vicious loop. i also believe her massive volume of tunes has made my computer sluggish and hope wiping the itunes slate clean will improve processing speed.

    Create a new user account on the computer. That is the freshest way. Make sure you designate it as an administrator.
    As for her old music/account, if you are 100% sure you no longer need it, you can delete the entire account from the "System Preferences -> Accounts" control panel. Log in using an existing or new Administrative account, to do this. It will provide an option to save the Home folder and the users settings/files. If you are indeed having space issues, and again you are 100% positive she will no longer need anything she had there, you can choose to delete.
