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 to new account?

    Hi i had an account for itunes that was with AOL but as im not with AOL anymore they have stopped me from using the account so how do i transfer my old music to a new account or is it not possible?

    OK, if you have followed the advice on the page, it is probably best to contact Apple via the contact us button at the bottom of the page.
    BTW have you checked that all you account info is correct in the new account?

    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 music from iphone to new computer

    iTunes will transfer your purchases from your iPhone to your new computer by using File>Transfer Purchases. For the rest of the content that’s on your iPhone use a program called TouchCopy which works on Windows and the Mac. It transferred my music, photos, contacts and SMS to my new computer very well.

    How to transfer music from iPhone to new Windows 7 PC?

    Your iPhone is not a backup/storage device. You can transfer music from iPhone to iTunes: go to ~/Music/iTunes in your previous account (I presume you mean that you made a "new account" on your Mac) and copy all its contents to somewhere in your new account (not ~/Music/iTunes). Then drag the entire iTunes folder onto the iTunes app icon.

  • 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.

    Once everything is in iTunes you can sync your new iPod.

  • How to transfer music from old hard drive

    I just upgraded my drive (same computer) and installed leopard. My older drive has my imported and purchased music on it. Running under Tiger. I can access the drive with a remote kit, so all files from the old drive are still accessable.
    how and what do I need to do to transfer all my music library and purchased music/authorizations to the new hard drive?

    I've tried doing that, and had an odd result. All of the names of the songs are added to my library, but when I attempt to listen to well over half of them, I get an error message:
    "The song "__" could not be used because it could not be found. Would you like to locate it"
    And indeed, the only music that shows up in the finder window are songs that will play. The very newest music seems to play, including things purchased from iTunes. Tech support said they can't help with the issue because of copyright concerns, but I just don't want to put 5 crates full of CDs into my computer one by one!
    Any thoughts?

  • How to transfer music from iPhone to new iMac

    My wife just got an iMac. She has had an iPhone for about a year or so. She wants to transfer the music from her iPhone to the iMac so she can then do new downloads on the iMac and keep it and the iPhone in sync. Photos transferred without problem. Apple says the music cannot be transferred. Any suggestions?

    The iphone syncs one way for music, it is not a storage device.
    The itunes purchased music can be transferred by File>Transfer purchases in itunes.
    The iphone can sync with one itunes library at a time. You need to transfer you old itunes library - from the old computer, to the new imac, then sync.

  • How to transfer music from iPad mini to iPod shuffle?

    Is there a way to transfer music in iTunes from an iPad mini to an iPod shuffle (2nd gen)?

    Unless you've paid for these songs yourself and you own them we can not help you transfer the music to your MBA. It would be stealing music you don't own.

  • 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?

  • How to transfer music from old computer and itunes to new computer itunes

    How can i get all my music off my old windows xp version with itunes to my new vista with itunes

    I wonder if you might know how to answer this somewhat related question: I, unfortunately, copied my iTunes music library onto an external hard drive before I read about the consolidating option. Stupidly, I then did the consolidation. Now I have each song listed twice in my library and one of each is an orphan, so I have to manually locate each one. That's a lot of music! Is there a way to undo my stupidity?

  • 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.
