How to save music?!

I have a 5th gen 80GB iPod and it appears to be corrupted. Of the 74.xx GB formatted capacity, I have 5.5 free. I have music from my Mac, along with music from 2 or 3 other computers.
Recently, the iPod locks up OSX when it is plugged in, and when I pull the plug, my Mac returns to normal. I can browse my music on the iPod in iTunes, but when I try to play a song, or add one it locks up. Also, songs won't copy back to iTunes when I use Senuti (newest version). Is there a way I can save all of the music on the iPod, or do I have to reformat?
Thanks,
James

Can you try to plug it in on a different computer to run senuti? Or possibly use a recovery app for windows.

    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.
    Type "move itunes library" or similar into the google search bar to learn how to copy the itunes library.
    Your computer should have a method for moving everything else (pics/docs/files/contacts/calendars/etc).

    either use this procedure: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300173
    or use an application like SENUTI, iPodRip, iPod Access which enables you to retrieve audio-track from your iPod.

    These links will give you several methods of recovering whatever songs remain on your iPod; some free, some third-party software, some more comprehensive for restoring playlists, ratings, playcounts, etc. Read them and their associated links before deciding on a strategy that works for you. There are many various third-party software programs that will offer a more robust process, or an easier GUI. Do a Google search for them if the links below leave you wanting…

  • How to save music on nano after HD crash?

    My wife's Mac Mini crashed recently and we replaced the hard drive with a new one.  Her iTunes Library was unfortunately not on the Time Machine backup when I restored it to the new HD.  This means all the music she has left is what was on her early 2nd-gen iPod nano at the time of the crash. 
    Since the nano was synced to a different library which no longer exists, how can we save the music that's on the nano?  Thanks!

  • How to save music onto computer

    I am soon going to send in my iTouch to Apple, and most of my music is from a different computer/iTunes library. I dont want to have to reload all of my music, so how can I save my music to my computer???

    Back up the files in your iTunes Library. They are located in user/music/itunes/ and are called:
    iTunes Library
    iTunes Library Extras.itdb
    iTunes Library Genius.itdb
    iTunes Music Library.xml
    as well as backing up 5 files from your Preferences, which you can find in your User/Library/Preferences/ and which are called:
    com.apple.iPod.plist
    com.apple.isync.plist
    com.apple.iTunes.eq.plist
    com.apple.iTunes.plist
    com.apple.iTunesHelper.plist
    Pay full attention when you restore these files.
    *You must be careful that you do not make a mistake and overwrite the whole of the Preferences folder when you do this*
    It is so easy to replace one folder with another, especially if we are a bit tired.
    *Make sure that you put your music files on the new computer in the same location as they were on the old computer* If you do not, iTunes Preferences will not find your music.
    Remember to replace the files and the music on your new hard drive BEFORE you launch iTunes. If iTunes does not see these files when it launches, then it will create new files.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to save music tracks onto an external drive

    Thank you for helping me with this question...
    How do I save my music files onto an external hard disk drive? It seems that there is no way to avoid having to save my tracks onto the C: drive, yet I am quickly running out of room. I would like to transfer all of my music to the D: drive and set up iTunes to automatically save all future music onto the D: drive, but I lack the technical knowledge to do this myself.
    Thank you,
    -Will
    dell   Windows XP   external hard drive

    If you want to make another drive (direct or portable) on your PC the main music location for iTunes, move all song files there, as well as any future imported music from CDs, here is one method (see the links below):
    You will maintain your playlists, ratings, comments, etc. This will only move your music folders location, NOT your iTunes program files. It is my opinion that programs (i.e. – iTunes) work better when installed on your main hard drive. At the very least, it makes it easier to manage all your programs if they are centrally located on one hard drive (the Windows default standard).
    See these links for some step-by-step info:
    iLounge: Moving your iTunes Library to a New Hard Drive
    MacMuse: iTfW: Move iTunes music/Library to new drive
    iTunes: Moving your iTunes Music folder
    If you are moving the music to an external hard drive or network drive, after the transfer (and to work correctly), the drive must be running prior to your opening iTunes. If not, iTunes will reset the location of your music folder location to the default location (usually: ‘C:\...My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music’). If this happens, you need to manually change the path back to your external location, or future CD ‘Imports’ will be deposited on your internal HD.
    Also make sure that the new drive always loads as the same Drive Letter, otherwise you will lose the references within iTunes.

    Thank you for your help....

    Frank31,
    Syncing music to the iPod is a one-way street, as discussed in this article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302155
    If you are concerned about using up your computer's hard drive for music, and are using iTunes 7, you might consider creating your library on an external drive if one is available.
    This article discusses creating an alternate iTunes library in another location, such as another drive:

  • How do I save music tin order to add storage space to my Ipod?

    How do I save music in order to add storage space to my Ipod?

    "if backed up the music on a Mac could I then re-load the tracks from it once the ipod has been formatted for Windows?"
    Yes you could, Macs can read Windows formatted iPods. If you only have the songs on the iPod, and have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was 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's a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to your Mac. The procedure is a bit involved but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    If you prefer something more automated there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

  • How can I save music that has been sent to me via email on my iPad.?

    How can I save music to my iPad that has been sent to me in an email? Please help

    You can't save it to the Music app directly on the iPad, you will need to see if there are any third-party music apps in the store that you allow you to copy music from Mail to them. For the Music app then only way to get music into it is via the iTunes store app directly on the iPad and by syncing from your computer's iTunes.
