How to get videos off my ipod back on my computer

I have to send my ipod back to have it fixed or replaced and Some of the videos I put on my ipod I deleted out of I tunes because my computer has a lack of space for all of it. I told the representative on the phone this and she told me someone online could tell me how to get videos off of my ipod and back on to my computer.

also, i don't know if you know this. is it possible to take my ipod into the apple store to have them fix it or replace it or do I have to mail it off. I didn't buy it at the apple store i bought it at circuit city.

In need of help to get music off my ipod back onto new computer

the problem i have is before i had chance to set my ipod up 2 get it ready to transfer my music to another comp the comp went caput.i have disk use enabled but now i have a new comp i cant get my music onto it as i couldnt set it up before my other comp bust. is there any way of ever getting my music back onto this new comp off my ipod.im using all updated software and stuff someone help please.

Check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2).
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.
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.

How do I get pictures from my iPod back to my computer?

First of all, I searched and searched and never found a difinitive answer. So forgive me if there is a topic covering this buried somewhere in the depths of ****!
I recently lost stuff on my hard drive. I want to get my pictures back from my iPod onto my PC. I got them onto the iPod in the first place with iTunes. Not with disk mode. I know some people say you can't get them off unless you put them onto it in disk mode. But, there has to be a way, or a program out there that can do this. If the pictures were put on there. There has to be a way to take them off.
So if anyone knows a way, or a program that will take pictures off your iPod, back onto the PC, I would be forever in your debt. As some of the pictures I need off of it cannot be replaced.

Sorry Johnny....I missed that point. I'm struggling to find an application that will get the photos off for you. If you have access to a Mac, this may help

However, this still may not work as you may be asked to format the iPod first which will be self defeating.
I looked at Yamipod and a couple of other products that will extract music from an iPod...can't find one for photos....sorry...maybe Chris or one of the other regulars has a solution.

How to get video off my computers hard drive?

After trashing preferences I forgot to change the scratch disks, to my external hard drive, and all the video was put on my computers hard drive.
Can someone tell me where to find the video on my hard drive, and then how to delete it off, it is about 100 GB of stuff.
Thanks,
Michael

Make sure you know exactly where you put it, and what the clip names are, because you'll have to reconnect media in any project this footage has been used in.

How to get video off my camera into iMovie

I now have a MacBook with the 08 release of iLife. I would like to get the video off my camcorder and into iLife to save the movies (primary) and play/edit with them (secondary).
However, here's the catch. My camcorder is an older hand-me-down. The only ports on it are s-video and "headphone" jack for audio. I have an adapter for my Windows box (shudder) that lets me do it, but I'd really like to use my Mac for that stuff and that adapter isn't marked mac-compatible.
anybody have any ideas? i've seen these Dazzle things in Best Buy, but they smell Windows-only. There's got to be SOMETHING that would allow me to get svideo sources recorded ... right?

If you know someone with a digital camera (miniDV) with appropriate ports you pay be able to use it to pass your video through, although you may need to record to the miniDV tape first.

How do I get photos OFF my ipod onto a new computer?

I can see the photos on the iPod.
I've tried putting it in dick mode but the photo files don't show up. All my other files seem to be there.
Putting new photos on the ipod is easy. Getting them off and onto a new computer doesn't seem like it can be done.
Any ideas?

I don't have the original pictures because I don't have the original computer. I can't re-put them on the ipod. We're talking 4000 pictures or so.
Right now I have Image Recall looking at the ipod. It's found 37 pictures so far. I'm hoping it will be able to find the rest. I'm not hopeful.

How to get Videos in itunes/ipod??

Maybe I'm just a moron, but how do I get videos to upload to itunes? First of all, when I click over to the movies tab in itunes, the screen is black. Unlike the music section, where there are songs listed, or at least a blank page, the screen is simply black. I've tried dragging movies onto the screen- nothing. I've tried going through the file menu and adding a file- nothing. Nothing will change the black screen. I've heard that sometimes movies aren't compatable with itunes and you need a different format? Could that be the problem? My movies are in windows media player. Anyway, please help me. Thanks in advance.

The key to getting videos to appear in the MOVIES or the TV SHOWS libraries is the dropdown "Video Kind" menu in the file info. Right-click a video and choose Get Info. On the Video tab, choose the video kind.

How do I move music from iPod back to my computer w/reformatted hard drive?

My computer was malfunctioning and required a reinstallation of the OS. Doing so overwrote my iTunes library. Now the only place the library exists is on my iPod. Is there any way for me to transfer the library back to my computer? Thanks.

P.C. Instructions
Plug your iPod into your computer. Make sure that disk use is enabled. (enable it in iTunes on the main iPod screen; if you manually manage your music, then it is already enabled.) Go to my computer. First, right-click your iPod. Then, select Tools ® Folder Options. This takes you to Control Panel ® Folder Options. Select the View tab. Under "Hidden files and folders," change "Do not show hidden files and folders" to "Show hidden files and folders." Click Apply to All Folders, and now all the invisible files on your iPod will be visible.
To get to your music files, navigate to iPod_Control\Music (meaning click on the iPod drive in My Computer). There you will find a series of folders starting with a letter and ending with a number. Congratulations! You are now looking at your iPod database, where all your music files are kept. As with any other file, you can now copy your music to anywhere on your computer.
On a MAC
Launch the Terminal.application and type:
find /Volumes/[iPod'sNAME]/iPod_Control/Music -print | awk '¬ { gsub(/ /, "\ "); print }'
Substitute the name of your iPod for [iPod'sNAME]. Any spaces should be replaced with underscores (_). This will print a list of all the songs inside the Music folder with \ in place of spaces. Then, simply copy the location to the song you want and type open followed by that location to begin playing that song. You can then use a standard copy command such as cp to copy any file you select to its new location. This is tedious though. To copy your entire iPod's entire Music folder to your local computer, simply open the Terminal and write:
%ditto /Volumes/[iPod'sNAME]/iPod_Control/Music/ ~/Music/iPodTunes/
Again, substitute your iPod's name for [iPod'sNAME], using an underscore for any spaces in the name. This will copy the entire contents of your iPod's Music folder into a new folder inside your home directory's Music folder called iPodTunes.

Is there a a way to get photos from your iPod back onto your computer?

My sister's computer crashed, and she lost all her photos. Her pictures are on her iPod, but I can't find a way to get them onto another computer. I searched posts looking for programs that could help, but they all cost money. Does anyone know of free programs that can help me????

There aren't any free ones that I know of, but if you copied photos to your iPod using the full resolution option, enable disk use, open your iPod in "my computer" in Windows or Finder on a Mac, open the photos folder then open the "full resolution" folder and drag the photos out of that folder to your desktop. For enabling disk use look here.
Disk Use.
If you only copied the photos as thumbnails, you can't do this so you'll need a program such as this one.
iPod Photo Copy. (Windows only)
iPod Photo Liberator. (both Mac and Windows versions available)
Photos as thumbnails won't be of the original quality when copied back to your computer.
