How can I get my music from my iPod onto my iTunes library?
I google searched it and everyone said to go onto 'my computer' and select the device and then go to tools to view the music folder however I do not have an option of tools, is there any other way I can get my music from my iPod onto my iTunes library?
By following the instructions here. Note that you can't backup the iPod or sync apps.
Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers -
A little while ago my old computer that had all my itunes information crashed and I had to get a new computer. I just downloaded itunes to my current computer and I can't figure out how to sync the music from my ipod to my library. When I click sync it only downloads the songs that I bought on itunes and not the ones that were originally from a CD. And when I click "sync music" it pops up a notification that music from my previous library will be removed and my ipod will be synced to my current library with half of my music missing just because I bought them from a CD. So my main question is, how do I get all the songs from my ipod to sync to my computer even though some of it wasn't purchased through itunes?
For music downloaded from iTunes you should be able to copy it over via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases
For music from CDs you will need a third-party program on your computer to copy them off - there are some listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
You may also find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141 -
how do i download music from my ipod to my new computer
You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPod forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/welcome I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

My itunes library is empty on my new computer, but I have a full library on my ipod. How do I "reverse" sync? I don't see an option in itunes to put all the info from my ipod onto my computer. I see it the other way, which would then erase all the data on my ipod. Help!!
Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer is designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is purchased content.

HT1449 how do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?
How do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?
An "iTunes account" is an online account you use for buying music, like a bank account. An iTunes collection is the media you see when you open iTunes. Which do you mean?
If it is two computers, it would also help to know where these are located. Are they on the same local network? If they are, try Home Sharing (and you have control of both and you aren't just trying to get music fro your computer to your friend's computer in another state). If they are not, you'll have to use an external hard drive or flash drive.
Is this on a PC? Your computer information says Windows but you posted this in the iTunes for Mac forum. -

HT1296 How can I sync my music from my Ipod to my computer
How can I sync my music from my Ipod to my computer
iTunes sync is one way from your computer to your iOS device.
You will need a third party software such as TouchCopy to do that.
Do you still have access to your old computer with your iTunes library?

How do you remove a playlist from the iPod but not the library
How do you remove a playlist from the IPod but not the library?
If it was originally on the camera roll try this: take another unimportant photo for test purposes, copy it to any special folder you have created within Photos, connect your iPad to your computer, locate it as any other external device, and most likely that Photos folder will be the only thing that will show up, locate the photo, delete it and then sync your iPad.
If the test photo is gone from the camera roll but still in another folder within the app then you know that the system works so go ahead with the process. I understand that there are other photo apps which might let you achieve your goal much quicker.
Hope thi helps. -

Update the version of iTunes on your computer. If the computer's currently running 10.5.8 or 10.6.8, this may require upgrading its OS.
