Windows XP

Never used Podutil myself, but there are other alternatives here.
Music from iPod to computer.
There's also another method. I've successfully tested this across several different Windows PCs.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), there's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
The above methods may depend on what version of iTunes you are running.
If none of these methods work, try CopyPod which also supports the transfer of videos from iPod to computer.
With the first method you can drag the files themselves into your desktop (say) and make sure you have them all.

How to get songs to new computer from old one?

I just got a new laptop and all my songs from iTunes are on my old desktop. I don't really understand computers to begin with, and I have been trying all day to get my songs from my old desktop to my new laptop. I have installed iTunes tried to Import songs from everywhere I can think of, and still nothing happens. I have songs onto CDs and tried to upload them and iTunes wont even recognize the CD. I have put the CD into other laptops with iTunes, and the CD is fine... what is wrong with my iTunes??

This link has detailed directions on how to do this. It takes some time, but works fine:

Old computer died, how do I get songs to new computer? HELP!!

My old computer's hard drive died. I am trying to hook my iPod up to my new computer to get my music onto the new computer's iTunes. The directions in the Applie help section don't work b/c they assume I can use my old computer to help with the transition. How do I do this without losing all my music?
HP Windows XP

Try one of these;
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), there's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer.
The above methods may depend on what version of iTunes you are running.
If none of these methods work, try CopyPod.
If you are using 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.

Updating your iPod's software, whether a major update or not, will re-sync the music to it from the computer after the software is finished installing.

Unless the music is bought from iTunes, then you won't be able to transfer it without third-party software.
You won't be able to transfer music that wasn't purchased from the iTunes Store using an iPod Touch because the Ipod Touch (First-Generation anyway, as far as I know) doesn't allow disk use.
I do not know of any third party software that is completely free and provides this ability through its demo.
Here is an article from Apple that you can use if you have any other kind of iPod available to use that allows disk use:

Computer destroyed .. how to get purchases onto new computer

I'm pretty much computer illiterate except for surfing the internet and using Word.
I purchased several songs from itunes onto a computer which was destroyed (fire). I have a new computer (Latitude with Windows XP) and although I see all my old purchases listed when i look up my account, I don't know how to get them onto my new computer.
Can someone help me? Thanks.

Click here and fill out the form to ask for a free redownload; if your request isn't granted, you need to purchase the songs again to get them back.
Apple pays the copyright holders for each download from the iTunes Store other than podcasts and album artwork.

How to get songs onto new PC

Alright, my old PC completely crashed, with my iTunes and everything on it. I've got my iPod mini now (with my Mac) but the problem is I have no clue how to get all my songs from my iPod onto my computer. I don't want to have to load all of the songs from my CDs and rebuy them from Apple again... and I don't know if I'll be able to access my old PC again. Is there anyway to get my iPod mini songs onto the Mac?

Purchased on iPod touch. How to get song on the computer into iTunes?

I downloaded a song on my iPod touch using the iTunes access. Now I have my iPod touch connected to my computer and trying to restore it. However, when I click restore it says I have purchases on my iPod that aren't in the library yet. I thought yes, I know. So I went on iTunes to the file tab and clicked the transfer from iPod touch. However, nothing happened. How can I get the purchased song on my iPod onto my computer?

Right click on the iPod in the sources list in iTunes and select the Transfer Purchases option.
