HT201272 How to transfer music purchases from ipod with old Apple id to a new laptop with new apple id?

I have over 300 songs purchased on my old ipod nano using a previous and no longer valid e-mail address, i cannot remember the old password or anything related to it. Now, I would like to transfer those purchases to my new PC and Iphone and I am not getting nowhere trying doing so because itunes is requesting pasword for the old apple id e-mail which I cannot remember.
Please advise

Apps and other media from iTunes can only be used with the account they were bought with.

How to transfer music library from iPod to iTunes to replace a failed hard drive on a Macbook Pro?

My MacBook Pro hard drive failed and I was only able to save a few songs out of a library of over 5,000. My iPod Classic, luckily has the entire library on it, BUT all I can find is how to update the iPod with the current iTunes library on my new and empty MacBook Pro. How can I do a reverse update, from iPod back to the iTunes library on my computer?

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.

How to transfer music purchased from old iphone to new iphone

Music from sources other than the iTunes store should already be on your computer in the iTunes library. They had to come from there to begin with to get on your phone in the first place.
Media is not part of the backup. Re-sync the media from your computer to your new phone.

Sync it via iTunes. Playcounts and ratings are transferred during the sync process.

How to transfer all songs from iPod to iTunes?

Well guys,
To make a long story short, I'm helping out a friend who just converted from a PC notebook to a Mac Pro. A sweet choice, I know...
But he thought that he had backed up all of his music on an external but erased it thinking he had backed up his collection elsewhere. So now his collection of music is lost, except for that his songs are still on his iPod classic. It's not stored in disk mode, unfortunately. It's just synched up normally.
There must be a way to put his songs on his new computer. We've scoured the forums and can't find much. Can you help, please?

For 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.
Find out how to do that here.
How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), 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 is a little more involved than other methods.
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.
Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola.
If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.

There are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

How do I transfer music purchases from ipad to ipod touch

whats the best way to transfer songs i bought from my ipad to my itouch? I'm having a hard time trying to figure this out!

Hey mr Zman,
I understand that you want to get your purchased songs from your iPad to your iPod Touch. There are two ways you can do this, either using iCloud or using iTunes. The following document covers both scenarios with detailed steps:

How can I transfer music back from iPod to MacBook and iMac after a MacBook

My MacBook Pro (2 years old) recently suffered a harddrive failure. I had all my music on this computer and of course on my iPod 80GB. Now I have a new drive in the MacBook with no music and all the music on the iPod. How can I transfer the music back from the iPod to the MacBook? I also have an iMac and would like to doubly back up my music on this unit (in case - or rather "when" there is another drive failure). Connecting the iPod doesn't work as it just asks me to erase and resync. There HAS to be some way around this, I couldn't possibly be the only person in the world with a drive failure!

1). Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
3). Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you only want to copy your purchases to the computer that can be done using iTunes, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
For everything else (including purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here (you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well):

4). Keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
5). I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

How to transfer music files from Macbook Air to iPod touch?

i have a new Macbook Air and an Ipod Touch. i have loaded music files onto the Ipod successfully, and separately made purchases from Itunes on my Macbook. i want to integrate the music libraries on both devices - how can this be done?

"i have loaded music files onto the Ipod successfully,"
From where?
The ipod is not a sotrage/backup device. The sync is one way - computer to ipod. The exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You can simply sync your ipod to the the Macbook to get the music form the macbook to the ipod
