HT1329 If I cannot access my old computer, can I transfer my music from other sources on my iPod touch to my new PC?

I have purchased a new computer as my previous one can no longer be used. The problem I have is that I have a lot of music on my iPod touch from sources other than the iTunes store purchases.
Can I transfer these files without accessing my old computer? If so, how can I do this?
Thanks in advance.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a abckup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Haev you failed to backup?  Not good.
You may be able to purchase a third party program to retrieve the music,

    It doesn't quite work that way. Transfer your music from the old computer to the new one. Then, sync the iPod.

  • Hard drive crashed and I have no way to access my iTunes. Can I transfer my music from my iPhone to new computer

    My hard drive is dun. I'm get a new Mac. Can I put my music form my IPhone and iPod onto my new Mac.

    Hi,
    With a single user activation license, you can install Acrobat on two machines.
    If you want to install the software on third machine, then you might need to deactivate it from the old one.
    If the hard disk has crashed, then please contact Adobe Customer Service as they would be able to help you out for the same.

  • How can I move music from my iPod to my new computer if my computer can't SEE the music from the source?!?

    I have read through lots of suggestions for moving my music from my iPod to my new computer...but can not seem to overcome a very difficult hurdle:
    When I connect my very old iPod to my computer and click on the icon to open it, only 3 folders come up:  Calendars, Contacts and Notes.  I cannot "backup" anything useful here!
    When I open iTunes, the program can see my iPod, and lists the complete library...but I cannot KEEP it in my computer!  WHY?!?
    When I go to iTunes > File > Library, I do not get a "backup" option to use to backup my iPod music, either.
    HELP, please.  I have spent hours fiddling around trying to figure out how to do this, and am getting crankier and crankier.
    Thanks in advance...

  • My old computer has broken and I had not backed up my Itunes. I now have the hard drive from my old computer but cannot transfer the music. How can I transfer the music from my old hard drive to the new laptop?

    My old computer has broken and I had not backed up my Itunes. I now have the hard drive from my old computer (windows 7) but cannot transfer the music. How can I transfer the music from my old hard drive to the new laptop (windows 8)?

    Copy the entire iTunes folder from \Users\<User>\Music on the old drive into your music folder on the new computer.
    Or see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • Old Computer crash. How can I transfer my music  from Ipod to new Computer?

    Lightning struck my old computer, how can I transfer my music from the Ipod to the new computer (Windows XP) Itunes library?

    You don't need to buy anything from the spammers that infect these forums. There are plenty of free options.
    If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.

  • My old computer has crashed with my old itunes on it. How can I transfer my music from my iphone to my new itunes library?

    My old computer has crashed with my old itunes on it. How can I transfer my music from my iphone to my new itunes library?

    Use the backup of the old computer and copy the iTunes files to the new one.
    However, since you are writing here, you probably didn't have a backup, so check out this user provided support document https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • How can I transfer my music from my iPod (4G Touch) to a new computer with windows 7?

    Help.  My old computer crashed and all my music from my CDs is still on my iPod but I need to get it into itunes onmy new computer with windows 7.  I have found a number of procedures online that apparently work for earlier versions of windows but i can't figure them out for windows 7.  Any suggestions from folks who have solved this proble would be appreciated.

    - Connect the iPod to the computer and transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - To transfer other music you will nee a third-party program like those discussed here:
    Copy music
    - If you have synced photos then you will have to use a paid program like TouchCopy or PhoneView. Those also do music
    - Then connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup does not contain synced media like app and music.

  • How can i transfer my music from one account to another on a different computer?

    So i have an itunes account on dell laptop and i share that account with other famliy members. I recently bought a mac pro and wanted to create a new account that way i can use icloud, is there any possible way to transfer everything from my old library to my new one or will i lose everything i had on my phone and ipods? Or is it possible to have one account but multiple icloud accounts?

    Lisa,
    Just get copies of the song files and add them to your iTunes library.  With the exception of any DRM-protected files (purchased before mid-2009 and never upgraded) they will play fine, even though they are technically associated with the original account.

    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

  • I bought a new mac and my music in itunes didn't transfer over from my old cpu.  Most of it was put on with cd's I have. Can I transfer the music from my I-phone to itunes on my mac?

    It sounds like there's something amiss with either your ID or the new system you're using.  I've been using iTM on a Win7 and OSX SL system and have been able to upload and download to the Cloud on both.  I've been using them interchangeably for the last week or so.
    I would also recommennd giving Apple support a call, to see what they say.

  • I have an IPhone 5, and of course I have used ITunes. My Computer has been completely destroyed, so I have to Purchase a new one. How can I transfer my music from my iPhone to my New PC?

    I have an IPhone 5, and of course I have used ITunes. My Computer has been completely destroyed, so I have to Purchase a new one. How can I transfer my music from my iPhone to my New PC?

    The way I do it is I hook to my windows computer, it will pop up iTunes. I click iTunes off. The phone will show as another drive on your computer. Click it open then migrate to the photos folder from the iPhone.
    Then select all, cut then right click on your pictures folder on your computer or make a new folder on your desk top like I do and right click on new folder and select paste.
    Photos will be gone. Just remember to turn off the iPhone sync in your photos folder on the phone or they will come back
    Good Luck

    How can I detele the items that i have already added?

    Via the iTunes sync process.
    And deleting music from your iPhone can be done the same way or if your iPhone 4 is running iOS 5, you can delete songs direct from the iPhone one at a time.
