How to transfer music from old ipod to newer ipod

When I attempt to transfer, itunes sync would only allow to transfer if you clear ipod to allow transfer from another computer. unfortunately it cleared the external hardrive that had all the music not the ipod itself. is there a step by step way tutorial to do this correctly?

Go to iTunes, sync new iPad and all your music should be there.

  • How can I transfer music from old mini to new iPod nano?

    I was buying a MacBook laptop for school next year, and also got a new nano nearly free! So, I currently have a PC which I use for my iPod mini, but I want to put my music library into the Mac and the nano. How can I do this?
    The PC "sent" songs into the nano but they were gray and not playable. I really just want to move the whole library to the Mac. Please help!
    Thanks.

    You can set up a network to transfer your files also you can use programmes to copy form your iPod to Mac click the link

  • How to transfer music from old computer to new one

    The logic board is shot on my old iBook. I bought a new one. I can access the old one through target disk mode. I replaced the iTunes folder on the new one with the iTunes folder from the old one but the music doesn't show up in the library. If I go to the iTunes music folder and click on a song it gets added to the new library, but I have 4000 songs. My admin user name is the same on both computers. What's the secret?

  • HT1209 how to transfer music from old iPod nano to new iPod touch

    how to transfer music from old iPod nano to new iPod touch ?

    The 1st and 2nd gen iPod shuffle can only be used with one iTunes library (not "account") at a time.  Your Apple ID and password does not matter.  (Later shuffles can be used with more than one iTunes library, IF it is set to use the Manually manage music option.)
    So, if you sync it with a different iTunes library, the previous content will be replaced.  You need to offload the existing content to your new computer's drive as the first step.
    You cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store.  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.  (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
    Once the song files are on your computer's drive, you can add them to the iTunes library.  After confirming all of your songs are there, sync your shuffle with that iTunes library.

  • How to transfer files from old iMac to new iMac without transferring everything.

    I just got a new iMac and would like to transfer files from my old iMac.  I don't want to transfer everything from the old iMac.  I just want the files, iTunes library, iPhoto library, etc.  I don't want to transfer applications and settings.  I was told in the Apple store that if I transferred my files using system setup then my new computer would look just like my old one.  I'd rather start out fresh with the new one and just bring in the files I need.  Is there a tool that allows you to customize what you transfer over from old to new?  Thanks for your help!!

    Carbon Copy Cloner might be the correct tool. It lets you pick and choose what to clone.
    http://www.bombich.com/ccc_features.html
    install CCC on the old Mac,
    connect the Macs with an ethernet cable,
    enable file sharing on both Macs,
    use "connect to server" (in Go menu) to mount the new Mac's drive on the old Mac.
    run CCC.

  • How to transfer music from old to new IPod

    I recently bought a new 30GB IPod Photo. How can I get the music from my old IPod to this new one?

    If your music is only on your iPod and you have no back up or the original computer to sync to, there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the files from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward.

  • How to transfer music from old pc (that's not on itunes), onto ipod/new pc itunes account?

    Just bought my first ipod. All my music I need to put onto it is on my parent's pc (it is not in itunes, just as normal music files (had old sony mp3 that has broken)), BUT I will be using my own pc for my itunes account. How do I do this without wiping the ipod/etc? thanks

    Use a Flash Drive/Portable HD/CD/DVD to transfer the mp3 files to your PC.  Then import them into itunes.

  • Help needed in how to transfer iTunes from old computer to new computer

    Hello!
    I'm really struggling in how to work a way to transfer the music from my iTunes on my old computer to my new computer without wiping all of the music from my iPod... does anyone have any ideas?
    Cheers muchly,

    There are a few things you could do, from networking the two computers, using an external hard drive or even using your iPod to make the move. Have a look at this User Tip: Migrating iTunes for Windows to a new PC
    If you can network the computers there is also this one: Copying songs over a network to use with iTunes for Windows
    To use your iPod on two computers without accidentally erasing it, change it to manual update on your old computer before connecting it to the new one. Keep your iPod in manual mode until you have loaded iTunes on your new computer and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync:
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing content manually on iPod
    Another way to load iTunes on your new PC is to copy the songs directly from the iPod. There is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection.

As iTunes 7 is just out some of these may not have caught up with it yet though I haven't experienced any problems with the Mac software I use.

  • Transfer music from old computer to new.

    Seems I cannot figure out how to transfer my songs from my old computer to new. I am on ITunes 7 on the old and new machine. I have tried export but it fails when the 2nd CD is asked for during Export. I have tried back-up but the new machine will not accept the CD. Any suggestions to an ITunes user who is suffering enough with switching computers?

    Hi yo-dt,
    You can also use a portable Hard Drive, or an iPod to move your library successfully. Read the articles bellow:

  • How to transfer music between Old iphone and new iphone

    The problem is that I don't have my computer that had all my music anymore so I would need to do it without a computer. I just got the 5s and want to get my music from my 4s. I know you can't do it with I cloud but any ideas?

    Can't do it without a computer.
    iTunes includes an option to transfer all iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes Store from an iPod or iOS device, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes Store only.
    First you need to authorize the computer to be used with your iTunes account or Apple ID with iTunes.
    With the old iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of the iPhone.
