How to transfer songs to new iPod

How do I transfer songs from my gen 1 iPod to my new gen5?

For iTunes purchases just redownload them by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
For other music you have to sync from iTunes.

  • How to transfer songs from one iPOD to another one?

    On my old iPOD I've collected songs for various libraries (from friends and my two computers) but stupid iTUNES won't let me transfer my songs from this iPOD back to Library.
    So, now when I've got a new a iPOD, I have to put all the songs there again, because iTUNES again won't let me transfer songs from one iPOD to another iPOD, when both are connected to the same computer!!
    What should I do?
    Apple as an innovator company should come up with an update to solve this easy issue.

    Haven't you got your songs in iTunes? Just connect your new one and it will update from your Library.
    However if you have deleted them from the PC, there are a number of third party utilities that can retrieve the files from your iPod.

  • How to transfer songs from old ipod to new ipod

    i just recently purchased a new ipod touch i use to have and old ipod with a click wheel dinosaur anyway i want to know if anyone can help me transfer all my old songs? i have like over 1,000 and i don't have any of those songs anymore on my new computer is there a way to transfer them to my new ipod or am i screwed???? HELP!
    THANKS
    kat

    I don't have a Touch or anything, but I'd imagine that you'd first need to connect your old ipod to your computer and get all your songs into your itunes from there. unless they're all already on your itunes. then just connect the iTouch and reload it.
    of course...I don't know if it's possible to import all your songs from iPod to computer, I've never had to do that.

  • How to transfer songs from one iPod to another?

    I have three ipods - iPod #1 has only been synced to iTunes. I want to transfer songs from iPod #2 to iPod #3 without having all of the existing iTunes from iPod #1 getting synced to iPod #3. How do I upload iPod #2 to iTunes and keep it isolated, and then sync only thos songs to iPod #3?
    I can not figure out how to upload the songs to my Library without losing them in the muck of the thousands of other songs that are already in the Library.
    I am a new user but I find that navigating iTunes is extremely non-user friendly...
    Thank you!

  • How to transfer songs and sync iPod?

    My iTunes was over capacity, so I unchecked a lot of songs and my movies from the iTunes library. But before I did that, I had bought some songs on my iPod. I can't transfer those songs on to my iTunes library (on my laptop) because it still thinks it is over capacity, because I haven't synced it yet. But I can't sync it because if I do, I will lose those songs that haven't been transferred yet.
    I've tried to transfer the songs and sync my iPod but it won't finish the backing up process. What should I do?

    My grandson has been sharing my Itunes account, and he is getting a new Ipod.  I want to transfer all his apps to his account and remove those apps from mine.

  • Does anyone know how to transfer songs from my IPOD to my Computer?

    As title, does anyone know if I can transfer all my songs from my Ipod, to my computer. Because the thing is I'm getting an iTouch but I don't have all my songs on my PC, it's all on my ipod.
    So i want to move all my songs from my ipod to my PC, is it even possible?

    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)

    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (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
    I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

  • How to transfer songs from old ipod mini to pc

    I am trying to transfer my music library to my old iPod mini into my pc iTunes library. I havent ever connected this iPod to this pc. It hasnt been turned on in at least a year. The library is showing up in iTunes but not an option to transfer music to iTunes library. Any suggestions?

    Clyde is right, You can't transfer music from iPod mini to PC.

  • HT1296 Does anyone know how to transfer songs from your ipod touch to a new computer?

  • How to transfer songs in your iPod to a computer (the easy way)

    hi everyone
    this is another solution to the most common problems lately, check it out
    1: i certify that this solution works with windows XP, don't attempt to try it on macs cuz i dunno what could happen
    2: go to my PC, right click your iPod, select explore
    3: set WinXP to show all hidden files and folders, you should now see a new folder named "iPod_Control", double click it
    4: in the folders inside "iPod_Control" there's one called "Music", double click it
    5: you should now see thousands of folders named like F01, F02, F03, etc..., inside those folders there's your music, COPY not cut and paste all those folders on my docs folder or other location where you can easily find them later...
    6: now, go to iTunes and click file - add folder to library, select all of the foldes copied and click add
    7: iTunes will now show all your media contained on your iPod on the library, except for movies, games and photos
    thats it, i recommend that you set up iTunes to copy all added files to your iTunes music folder, in that way, you'll have the songs on a folder that is easier to handle and that after done the job, cosolidate your library for better results
    i'm workin on a way to extract also the movies and photos
    see ya later, as usual, if havin' trouble after doin this, leave a comment, i'll reply as soon as possible
    Der Feniks...

    if you dont have itunes installed, WinXP will recognize the iPod without a problem doesnt matter
    about the auto-update, itunes will only do this if its set up to do it so when you install itunes and recognizes the ipod, and is set up to auto-update, it will prompt you to do so, click no so you can save your files on it

  • Cannot transfer songs onto new IPod.

    OK, just got the 60GB IPod. When I try to load my library on it, the ITunes says it is transferring them. I watch it go on and on saying they are loading...then when it is over....nothing on my IPod. Actually, a few songs make it, not all. When I go into ITunes, under the source menu and select my IPod, it shows as if all the songs are on there. I tried deleting the software and reinstalling it for both the IPod and ITunes, and same result.
    What can I do? Also, when it says how much capacity my IPod has, it comes out to 114 GB or so......strange.
    Help!!!!

  • HT1351 how to transfer songs from 1 ipod to another

    i cant transfer the content of my imported cds from 1 ipod 4th to a ipod 5th gen.

    The tracks must still be stored in your iTunes library first before they can be transferred to another device.  If they aren't currently in an iTunes library, see this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
