How to transfer the music from an Ipod touch to another one

How can I transfer the music from an Ipod touch to another one

Assuming you synced the contents to the first iPod Touch, you just plug the second iPod Touch into the same instance of iTunes and select to sync the music. If your original iTunes library is on a hard drive which has failed, then restore that from your backup and follow the above procedures.

HT2329 How do I transfer the music from my iPod touch to a new computer and new iTunes account on a PC?

I recently got a new computer and a new iTunes account. How do I transfer all of the content from my iPod Touch to my new library without it syncing and deleting everything? Thanks!

The sync is one way - computer to ipod. The exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases
You need to copy everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.
The ipod is ot a backup device. It simply irrors the selected content of your computer.

HT1296 Is there any way I can transfer the music from my ipod touch to my computer without having to pay for it? Itunes worked fine with my ipod on my old laptop. I am not willing to risk losing all of the music on my ipod to update to the newest iOS.

I really don't want to lose all of the music I have on my ipod touch. It worked fine with my ipod and my old laptop but I got a new laptop and now it doesn't want to sync anything except purchases I made on the ipod and everything that was in the cloud. The rest of the music on my ipod is from old CDs and I am away from home. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could give me some advice. I also don't really want to pay for a download that moves the music into itunes so if anything is free and safe that would be great or if there is a way to do it manually. Again thanks to anyone who has advice to share.

You would have to purchase a 3rd party program ( not supported by Apple).
The ipod is not a storage/backup device.
Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.

How do I transfer the music from my iPod to my new IMac computer (95% of the music on it is from CD's I own)?

How do I transfer the music from my IPod to my new IMac computer? I just changed from a PC to IMac. 95% of the music on it is from CD's I own and the ITunes on the new IMac is only recongnizing the ones I bought off of ITunes.

That is correct. The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases.

HT1386 If I have a library of music on my ipod but just got a separate itunes for my new computer, how can i transfer the music from my ipod onto my new account?

I got a new itunes account on my new computer. My ipod has all the music from my previous account. I would like to transfer the music from my ipod to my new account. Is this possible?

For more information on this, take a look at:

Hi There
You can only transfer purchased music from your iPod to iTunes using iTunes. However there are third party utilities that you can use to retrieve your music, just do a google search or have a look on http://www.versiontracker.com
Hope this helps

My hard drive with all my actual music files died. how can I transfer the music on my ipod classic to another drive?

my hard drive with all my actual music files died. how can I transfer the music on my ipod classic to another drive?

If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod onto your computer. Here is a guide about how to copy iPod music. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

If the music on the iPod was purchased through iTunes you can try Transfer Purchases.
Connect the iPod to the Mac and launch iTunes. Right click on the iPod name on the left side of the iTunes window under the devices heading and select Transfer Purchases. That should transfer the music into the iTunes library on the Mac.

How I transfer the music from iTunes to the computer?

Hi
I was wondering, how I transfer the music from iTunes to the desktop computer?
I would like that as back up on another device.

I am assuming you have a PC - not a Mac.
In iTunes on your PC go to Edit>Preferences>Advanced
This will tell you the location of your iTunes Media Folder on your PC.
Now go to that location using Windows Explorer and click on the Music folder within it. All your music should be found there

HT3798 my iPod was originally connect to an old HP. The HP has since died and now I own a Macbook pro. I want to transfer the music from my iPod (originally synced with the HP) to my Macbook Pro. Is this possible without losing the music on my iPod?

Your iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time. It will recognize the iTunes library on the PC as a new library. If you sync the iPod with this new library, all content will be erased from the iPod and replaced with what is in the new library. So what you will want to do is copy everything from the iPod to your new iTunes library on your PC first.

Is it possible to transfer files (music) from an ipod touch to itunes

Hello tt2
Been using your Syncstats, working magically.
However though, when I try to sync the stats of all songs at once - if one song poses a problem - everything stops.
Is there a way around this?
Rather than: click "no" (in order to manually sync songs one by one)??
By the way - this pops up:
Line: 136. Char:53
A0040203
Lines 136 & 137 deal with updating the Last Played and Last Skipped values. I initially suspected the error could be being caused by null values in one of the fields which I didn't encounter in testing, however the same values are accessed previously in lines 129 & 131. Ideally I'd work out exactly what causes the error so I can test for the problem issue rather than throw the error, handle those circumstances in the most sensible way given the aim of the script, and continue to process non-error causing values as is.
The quick alternative is to ignore the error by placing an On Error Resume Next statement before the possibly probablematic code, and an On Error Goto 0 statement after it to resume normal error handling. I.e.
On Error Resume Next
{Ignore errors in this block}
On Error Goto 0
Not always a good idea but in this case I suspect "Do nothing" would be the appropiate action in those cases that currently cause an error so I've made that change and posted up the new build of SyncStats. Let me know how you get on.

I got a new computer and backed up my iTunes library to an external hard drive. The external hard drive is not allowing me to access the drive. Is there a way to transfer the songs from my iPod touch to my new computer?

That's a bummer, didn't realize the exHD files were corrupt, esp if you have tried from another PC and not just this new computer.
You can get purchases from the itunes store transferred from an iPod using these directions:

If you want everything (meaning non-itunes songs, app data, photos, etc) you need to buy a 3rd-party ipod manager that support iTouch. Here is an iLounge article to start your research:
