HT1386 How to synch ipad music (from CDs) to PC itunes

Hi! My computer was killed by a virus that attacked my music files. I had to wipe the harddrive clean and reinstall all the software. My itunes library was completely destroyed with the exception of the music I purchased from itunes. However, my ipad still has all my original music (from my CDs). Does anyone know how to pass the info from my ipad music library into my itunes? I don't want to have to re-save all my CDs into my itunes account again, as it took ages to do the first time around!
Many thanks!

You'll need the assistance of third party software to copy this content over from your iPad to your new iTunes library. See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    I have a new computer (HP) and I downloaded the newest version of itunes on it.  I want to know how I transfer all my songs and playlists to the new itunes library.  I have over 5000 songs on my ipod, some purchased from itunes, some uploaded from CDs and some that were created and added.  PLEASE HELP...I need my music for work purposes.

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss.  To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. 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 iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.

    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

    How do you import music from an ipod to itunes?

    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. And here is a guide about how to import music from iPod to iTunes. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

  • HT204406 How do you transfer music from your ipod to itunes match?

    How do you transfer music from your ipod to itunes match? I recently bought itunes match and it wont allow me to add songs from my ipod to the music library and match. Before I bought it, it would not allow me to transfer it either. After my purchase, I thought it would solve the problem but it did not. Any solutions?

  • HT1386 how do i delete music from my ipad? I have deleted the music from my itunes but when I sync it does not delete off my ipad

    How do I delete music from my ipad? I have deleted the music from my itunes but when I sync it wont come off my ipad.

    If you don't want to delete too much then you can do it directly on the iPad. You can either swipe across track names and you should get a delete button, or on the album or artist selection screens you can press and hold an album or artist and you should then get an 'x' on its top corner which will delete the album or artist if you tap it.
    If you want to delete more then it may be quicker to connect the iPad to your computer, and on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes under the iPad device you should see a Music section (if you don't see the content types listed then click the arrow next to the iPad's name) - select that and on the right-hand side you should see a list of the music that is on your iPad, and you can then select and delete them.

  • 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.

    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.

    How do you download music from iCloud to a new computer?

    Hi Heatheretd,
    So, you have a new computer, and you have loaded the most current version of iTunes 11 onto it, correct? What type of computer is it - that will make it easier to walk you through this....
    And we are assuming your mean all your PURCHASED music from iTunes? Or are you talking about moving an entire iTunes library  from an old computer to a new one.....

  • How do I transfer music from my iphone to itunes?

    How do I transfer music from my iphone 5 to itunes?

    Furthe question to this one: Don't want to synch, simply want to transfer new music in iTunes to my iPhone.  Reason I don't want to synch, I burned some of my CDs in iTunes (i.e., didn't buy them through iTunes which iTunes/Apple doesn't seem to like at all) so don't want to lose everything I burned which is what synching appears to do.  So I was hoping for a simple drag and drop from iTunes to iPhone or similar.  Thank you.
