How to transfer iPhoto events from iPod Classic to Mac

I have an old iPod Classic 80GB and used to sync all my iPhoto events with it (full resolution pictures and disk use enabled).
Now my MacBook White HD crashed, and I would like to transfer all the events to a MacBook Air running Mountain Lion (v10.8.2). I could easily copy and paste the "Full Resolution" folder, which has all the pictures. However, I could not manage a way of transfering the photos metadata, i.e., I was unable to transfer the events' names along with the photos or keep them sepparated in events.
I have read this article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1930, according to which the iPhoto should identify my iPod and would be able to import the pictures. But the iPhoto (v9.4.2) can't "see" the iPod (perhaps because it's a much newer iPhoto version compared to the one running in my old Tiger MacBook White). And if it could, I'm afraid it wouldn't identify the events in which every group of pictures is split.
How can I import the photos sepparated in iPhoto events from my iPod Classic to the Mac? Any ideas?

Yes, iPhoto is the best choice for you.

    How do you download music from ipod classic to computer

    If your music collection was purchased from iTunes, you are in a good shape since that music is forever yours under your iTunes account. Therefore, after installing iTunes on your new computer, sign into your account and see all your music under "Purchsed". Then simply download it to be phisically present onto your computer (for free since you've already paid for it).
    On the other hand if you happens to not be a sucker to waist money on iTunes and your collection was ripped from the internet (via torrents and such), you need some third party software to copy iPod music, here is a guide about how to transfer music from iPod classic to computer. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

  • How to transfer all songs from ipod to my library?

    got a new ipod, but some of my songs are only on old ipod, not in my lib. how to transfer all songs from old ipod to lib, so i can put them on new ipod. both ipods are 4GB mini. thanks for help.

    There are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

    SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)

    If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content only from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide

  • How to transfer all songs from iPod to iTunes?

    Well guys,
    To make a long story short, I'm helping out a friend who just converted from a PC notebook to a Mac Pro. A sweet choice, I know...
    But he thought that he had backed up all of his music on an external but erased it thinking he had backed up his collection elsewhere. So now his collection of music is lost, except for that his songs are still on his iPod classic. It's not stored in disk mode, unfortunately. It's just synched up normally.
    There must be a way to put his songs on his new computer. We've scoured the forums and can't find much. Can you help, please?

    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.
    For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola.
    If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
    iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
    There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.

  • How to import iphoto events from remote library into local library

    I know how to access my MBA's iphoto library from my imac, however I don't know how to import any event/photo into my local imac's library. Any help would be appreciated, thanks

    Once that opens by default with iphoto, then... went to Finder again, Pictures, right click on iphoto library (local Imac library) and select "open with" = Aperture.
    There I had my MBA's library opened on iphoto and my local Imac library opened on Aperture. I simply dragged the events from iphoto to Aperture. Worked like a charm..
    PS: It is obvious to say that for this to work, both Imac and MBA have to be Shared in the same network
    That works, but there is a better way with Aperture. The problem.  If you drag the photos from Aperture to iPhoto, you only transfer the previews and you lose quality, because you do not transfer the high quality originals.
    Aperture can do more for you:
    Select the event   (in Aperture "Projects") you want to transfer in the library Inspector and then use "File > Export > Project as new Library".  This will create a new photo library with only the elected items.
    Then open your destination iPhoto library in Aperture and select the command "File > Import > Library" and select the partial library with your events. Aperture will now merge this library into your iPhoto library.
    This way, you will transfer the originals and all editing, keywords, etc, and effectively merge your iPhoto libraries preserving all your work.

  • How to transfer purchased songs from ipod touch to itunes

    how do i transfer songs i bought from the wifi music store onto my itunes library?
    i manually manage my music so when i hit sync, it doesn't do it. when i hit file, transfer purchases from my ipod, it transfers all purchased songs, even ones i bought on other computers and then put on my ipod, not just through the wifi music store. How do i transfer just the ones purchased on my ipod?

    Hi ipodtuser234,
    Clicking "Synchronize" will only transfer songs from the library to the iPod.
    To transfer music donwloaded from iTunes Music Wi-Fi Store to the computer, connect your iPod then right-click you iPod name on the Source list and hit "Transfer Purchases".
    Here you have an article about that: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305465
    To transfer only determined song from the iPod to your iTunes library. See my post [here|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6923237#6923237].
    Hope this helps!

  • Transfer new events from iPod?

    I have iCal at home and work. I don't want a .mac account and it seems like I should be able to sync my calenders with my iPod, i just can't figure out how to do it.
    When I open the Calendars folder on my iPod in Finder and open one of the iSync calendar files there, it switches to iCal and the message "This calendar contains new events. Please select a destination calendar." But there aren't any new events and when I select a destination calendar, it duplicates the events already listed (because they are already on iCal and on my iPod).
    It seems like there should be a way to import only new events so they are not duplicated over and over. Any one know of one?

    The calendars that you see in the folder marked "Calendar" on your iPod all have names that start with ISync. They are files of your individual calendars, and you will only see them on your iPod. You won't see these files in your computer. You'll see them in your Finder window because it shows you what is in your iPod's hard drive, if you've checked "enable disk use" in your iPod's preferences in iTunes. Think of them as copies of what you have done so far in each of your individual calendars. I still think of calendar as meaning everything on my calendar, but iCal sees calendar as meaning each subject or category of the whole database. The database is everything, all of the categories you have in iCal. The ISync file for a specific calendar/category is everything you have in each individual category up to the point that you sync your iPod with your computer.
    If someone wanted to copy just their "Work" calendar/category to a computer at work, they could import the ISync-Work.ics file from their iPod's "Calendars" folder to their computer at the office. That sounds like what you have described. It wouldn't add or update just one event, though, as you've discovered. It will import everything that's in that category. This is good if you don't want your personal calendars from your home computer or your iPod copied to your work computer. However, if someone did need all of their calendars, everything in their other computer's iCal from home copied to the work computer, then using iCal to make a back up is the better choice. I make a back up of my iCal to my computer regularly just in case I need it for any reason. If I want to have everything the same on my work computer, I can use my iPod's hard drive like a flash drive or portable drive. I can then go to iCal on the other computer, and choose "Revert to Database Backup". Technically, that means to go back to a previously saved version of everything you had in iCal. You could revert to iCal as you had it last year, last month, or yesterday. But you can also "revert" to the backup you made this morning or five minutes ago. It's puts in everything that was backed up to that point. Even if I am only updating one event, this takes very little time to do it this way. At this time, I don't know that there are any other options, other than the way you've been doing it and the way I've described. It's important to note, also, that If you've deleted events from one computer, the other computer is going to be exactly the same as the first, if you go this route.
    It also sounds like it is time for iCal to get some kind of update to better meet people's current needs. We'll just have to wait for Apple or someone else to create an update or write a program that gives iCal more flexibility!
