I have an older Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer these songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available

I have an oder Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer ths songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available?

I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

How do i transfer my songs to a new computer?

I recently got a new laptop and I havnt loaded my ipod on here yet because I am scared if I do it will erase all my songs that I have on it. Does anyone know if this will happen? If not what should i do?
Compaq Windows XP Pro Laptop

1) If Itunes is already installed disk use may need to enabled so you can see the Ipod in my computer. Itunes hides your ipod from windows otherwise.
2) Make sure you can view hidden files. In MY computer go to tools>folder options>view>show hidden files and folders.
3) Windows should see the ipod and your music should be on your ipod in several hidden folders. To be safe I would copy it all to say your desktop.
4) Install Itunes http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and the Ipod updater http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/ (if you don't already have it installed)
After that drag the copied folder to Itunes (drag and drop or in Itunes (File>add folder to library)
You may need to authorise your new computer by playing it in the library first.

How can i transfer my songs to my new computer? not using an ipod!

Okay, not that the whole ipod hard drive situation is convenient anyway. I mean I didn't even realize that there was a certain way to save the files in need of transferring the songs. Here's the situation. I was using my boyfriend's dad's computer till I got mine, and I got mine only a week before coming to Japan. I was crunched for time, and I guess I didn't research it thoroughly, but knew I could use my ipod to transfer the songs. So I downloaded the songs onto my ipod. It wasn't till later when I realized why it wasn't working. Well now I'm in a bit of a pickle because I won't be able to get my ipod hooked up with that computer till next May. My boyfriend is coming to visit however next month, and was wondering if there was a convenient way for him to save the files, short of 50 cds, to allow me to transfer my music when he gets here. I searched the forums, but they all seem foreign! Can anyone help me?

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. Are data DVDs expensive? and where can I find them? Once I get them, can I use the same steps as transferring songs using my old ipod? Couldn't find anything on transferring songs not with an ipod. Do I have to change preferences before saving them onto the DVD's. I can't seem to find that page again, but it seemed pretty specific about the steps I needed to take before saving the files onto the ipod and after hooking it up with the new computer. Can you help me with this?
Sincerely, Diana

I've just got a new computer does any one know how to transfer my song to my new computer. I've installed itunes but can't seem to transfer the songs

I've just got a new computer does any one know how to transfer my song to my new computer. I've installed itunes but can't seem to transfer the songs.

you can use home sharing.
or, assuming you have all your media files in the default location, copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder) from the old to the exact same location on the new machine.
you can either use your network or an external HD for that.

How do I transfer my songs from my old computer to my laptop? They are both the same iTunes account

How do I transfer my songs from my old computer to my laptop? They are both the same iTunes account.

These are two possible approaches that should work to move an existing iTunes library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase are reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where computer has died with no backup then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

Thanks!

Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer.
If for some odd reason you have failed to backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod:
File>transfer Purchases
In the U.S you can use the newly released icloud, beta version, to get itunes purchases. open itunes store, click Purchased under Quick Links
