HT201269 ipod mini to iphone 5 music transfer?

I have an ipod mini from 2005 with all of my music on it. The computer that held my itunes library has crashed. I recently purchased the iphone 5. Is there any way to get my content from my ipod mini to my iphone 5? Any insight will be most appreciated.

See if this helps you. https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
After you recover the music, then sync the phone to iTunes.

Having difficulty using iPod mini to move music to new computer

I followed the article titled "How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer" and I am really stuck. I deleted all the music from my iPod (it's all still on iTunes on my old computer" but the music will not transfer to my iPod so that I can transfer it to the new computer. And, the iPod is not being recognized by the new computer.
Additionally, I cannot restore my iPod - there is some sort of error. Not sure what to do from here.
Help, please.

IPod Mini Skips Through Music

I am having a problem with my iPod mini. When I try to play any of the music loaded on it, it simply skips through each song without playing any of it. Any suggestions?

I tried that, and it didn't work. In addition, it will not allow me download music from my PC. Both features were working but are not now for some reason.

Cannot transfer purchase music to Ipod Mini

Help. I cannot transfer my purchased music from Itunes to my IPOD mini. I can transfer all other music except music purchased from Itunes. Each time I try, I get a message that tells me to update my IPOD software. But I already have the latest software.
I can transfer purchase music from Itunes to my 2nd generation IPOD with no problems. Why can't I transfer purchased music to my IPOD mini?
I've tried the 5Rs and have restored the mini several times, but nothing seems to work.

'Music' tab not appearing on iPod mini

At first I thought all my songs were gone from my ipod mini, since the 'music' tab wasn't there, but when I pressed play/pause, the songs began to play. They're in itunes as well; I just can't navigate through my songs on my ipod. What's wrong?

Try this;
Go to SETTINGS > MAIN MENU > MUSIC and set it to ON. Then, hit the MENU button several times to get back to the main menu & see if it's there.
You can control what appears in the main menu in this settings menu. Apparently, your ;music' option has been turned off.
Cheers!

IPod mini to iTunes

My G4 powerbook was stolen a few weeks ago, along with my ENTIRE iTunes library... :-(((( However I still have some of the music from my library on my iPod mini. Can I transfer ANY of this into the library on my new computer? I now have an iMac Intel desktop. Can I even use the iPod mini with the new computer without losing all the previous music in the reset?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Thanks, I had already managed to retrieve a few iTunes store purchases that were on the iPod, but the rest is mostly a selection of music I'd collected over the past four years from CD's etc, most of which I've given away now:-(

Need help with transferring from ipod mini to nano!

I own an iPod mini and just went and bought an iPod nano and am wondering how to transfer the music from my mini onto my nano. This may seem like a dumb question but I'm not finding a way in iTunes to do it. Thanks for help in advance

IPods are designed to transfer music in a one way fashion. Meaning, iPods can only have music transferred to them via iTunes, not vice versa. So, in your case, where the iPod mini has your music on its memory, you will be unable to transfer the actual music back to the computer. Hopefully, you have the music from the iPod mini stored on your computer or on some flash drive to be able to import the same music to the iPod nano. I am assuming that this is the case, your music being on iTunes, else other implications would have occurred in updating the iPod mini. Put simply, you need to have your music solely on iTunes and transfer from there to the iPod nano. Hopefully this helps.

How do I transfer music from my ipod mini to my new ipod. I no longer have the same music in my library and would like to transfer it there too.

How can I transfer my music from ipod nano to iphone?

hi,
i'm seriously considering buying an iphone. but before i do, i just have a couple of questions:
1. How can I transfer my music from ipod nano to iphone?
2. Will there be an iphone with higher memory capacity than 16gb? If so, when will it be out. (If there will be memory sizes of ipod similar to ipod classic, then i think it's better if i wait a little longer considering that there's only little difference in the price).
Thank you!!

I don't believe there will be an iPhone with storage capacity equivalent to the iPod Classic anytime soon - at least not within the next month, or even this year or the next.
The iPod Classic has a hard drive. The iPod Touch and iPhone have Flash storage. Flash storage is more expensive than the hard drive equivalent, but the cost for Flash storage is coming down - supply an demand is probably helping this. The iPod Touch has double the storage capacity of the largest iPhone storage capacity since the iPod Touch doesn't include a cell phone - the case has more room for two 16GB Flash drives. More than likely there will be a 32GB iPhone at some point, but I believe it will be a while before we see a 64GB iPhone or larger approaching the storage capacity that is available with an iPod Classic.

I have an iPOD mini library and now have a IPhone 4S. I updated my library and synced my phone to the library but can not figure out how to get the music library to download to my iphone

I have an iPod mini library which I have update. I now have an iPhone 4S which I have synced to the library using a MS XP computer. I can not figure out how to get the library to download to my iPhone?

Thanks, This caused me to go back and try again since the solution seemed so simple. What I did was when it started downloading, it started with the iphones apps to my computer. I did not want the apps downloaded on my computer so I stopped it. If I would have waited, the music was uploaded right after the apps were downloaded.

HT1688 does anyone know how to transfer the existing music from my itunes account that i had with an ipod to my iphone? I had my last download on my laptop which crashed and now we have a new computer. I had to download a new version of itunes.

I had my itunes account on my laptop which has since crashed. I had to buy a new computer and iinstall the new version of itunes. It did not pull up any of my information with music library, etc. Does anyone know how to transfer existing music from my itunes account for my ipod to my iphone?
thanks

Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was 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 iTunes Store purchased content.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):
