HT1386 How do I copy music from an old iPod?  Why do you have to make things so difficult?  These are my files that I paid for but once I put them on your devices, I no longer have control over them.  I've wasted so much time on these stupid problems.

How do I copy music from an old iPod?  Why do you have to make things so difficult?  These are my files that I paid for but once I put them on your devices, I no longer have control over them.  I've wasted so much time on these stupid problems.  I used to be able to do this until you "improved" things.

Thanks, Deggie. I thought Apple would see my feedback.  I would just like to know if there is a simple way to copy just a few music files from an old iPod.  I saw instructions on how to copy all of them from the iPod but it was complicated and I really didn't want to copy all the songs.  I guess I could delete all the songs but the ones I want to copy then go through that process again.  Do you know how to back up music to my computer?  I don't want to have to go through this again and possibly lose music.

    You can't without putting it on iTunes first, which is done by using the Transfer Purchases command in the File menu.

    if from 3rd party you have to put songs on computer and sync from itunes.  Apple doesnt support syncing from ios to itunes so you will have to already have the songs on pc.

  • Copy music from my old ipod to my new ipod touch

    I want to copy my music from my old ipod to my new ipod touch, how can I do that?

    You have to transfer the music from the old iPod to iTunes and then sync it to the new iPod.

  • How do I get music from my old ipod to new one please ?

    I have tried bbut cannot seem to get music from my old ipod to my new ipod. I lost old one long ago and recently found it and much loved n' missed songs . I since replaced pc and saved no music . I tried connecting both ipods to my laptop but no luck getting songs from old to new !!  Any help would be greattly appreciated pelase n' thank you :-)

    Hi Lea64!
    If your music was ripped from CDs, you will need to re-rip it to your iTunes library on your new computer. But if you bought your music from iTunes, they are still in iCloud, and you can redownload them at no cost. Sign in to the iTunes Store on your computer, then click on "Purchased" on the list on the right hand side. You'll see everything you have ever bought from iTunes in there, and anything that's not currently on your computer will have a little cloud with a downward pointing arrow in it. Click on the cloud symbol next to whatever you want to download, and it will download to your computer. Plug in your iPod and synch it, and you're done. Hope this helps!

  • How do I transfer music from an old ipod shuffle to a new one?

    How do I transfer music from my old not working ipod shuffle to a new one?

    If the music on this nonworking Shuffle is not in your iTunes library or in a backup somewhere, I'm afraid you are out of luck. You'll need to redownload any past purchases you had on there via iCloud. It shouldn't cost you anything.  See here for more details.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    For all other non-iTunes purchases content, you'll need to redownload/re-rip it to iTunes again from its original source such as another MP3 store or from CD.
    If the music that was on the older Shuffle is still in your iTunes library, simply configure it to sync to the new Shuffle.

  • My computer crashed and I lost my iTunes library so now how do I transfer music from my old iPod to my new one

    A little while ago my computer crashed and I lost everything, including my iTunes library except for on my iPod Shuffle. I just got a new iPod Nano for Christmas and I need to transfer the music from my old one to my new one but I can't figure out how to do this because my iTunes does not have the music that my old one does.

  • I just bought a new ipod shuffle, how can i transfer music from my old ipod onto the new one

    How do I transfer from my old ipod to my new ipod

    You can't transfer it directly.  If the old iPod is set to sync to your iTunes library on the computer, everything on the iPod is in your iTunes library.  Just set up the shuffle to sync from your iTunes library as desired.
    If the old iPod is set to Manually manage music, AND there are songs on the iPod that are not in your current iTunes library, please post back.

  • How can I transfer music from an old Ipod to a new one?

    I have an older Ipod and just bought an I pod touch.  How can I transfer the music from my old one to the new one?
    Thanks!

    All of your music should be in itunes on your computer.  If it is not, then put it there.
    You can then sync it to the ipod.

  • How do i transfer music from my old ipod to me new ipod?

    I have loaded CD's onto my computer and have bought tunes from itunes so music is all in one location that syncs with my old ipod.  However, only new tunes bought since trying to sync my new ipod will sync.  How do I sync the old tunes onto mym new ipod?  Help!!!!!!!!!!!!

    For non-purchased music like CD ripped songs, you need some third party software like sharepod, yamipod or iPod file manager to copy them from iPod back to computer. if you need details, here is a guide about how to copy iPod music. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

  • HT1495 how do I get music from an old ipod onto my new iphone 5?

    I have an old i pod that doesnt work on the cloud when I connect my iphone 5 to my account not all of my music appears

    See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. Last link in the table to the iLounge article is probably all you really need for older iPods, though you'll need to use the iTunes transfer purchases command to retrieve any ClickWheel Games. Once everything is in your library you can add it to the iPhone.

  • HT1386 how do I transfer photos from my old Ipod classic to my new PC???

    it keeps saying I should erase all data from my iPod and sync with the new iTunes library which has absolutely nothing on it

    You need a third-party program. PhoneView and Touch Copy work for iOS devices like the iPod touch. They may work for the iPod classic. You posted in the iPod touch forum.
