  • I have about 800 more songs on my nano than itunes, due to a crash. How can I get the songs onto itunes from the ipod, or at least get the new music ive gotten since the crash onto my ipod without deleting all the other songs when it syncs?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

    They can't.  Which came first - the chicken or the egg?  Actually, that's a bad comparison but a sync must come first.
    The library is actually part of iTunes and it contains everything.  iTunes is then configured so that you (or they) determine which portion of everything will be synced to each iPod (identified by a unique name, see below for an example of an iPod and an iPad).  iTunes can't make that decision until AFTER it knows which iPods exist.
    By the way, I (you, they) can very easily change the name of each device to whatever I (you, they) wish to call it.

  • HT3819 how do i get my iTunes library from my old laptop to my new mac (my purchases have moved across but not my own music files)

    How do I get my itunes library from my old laptop to my new imac? My purchases are showing on the new imac but not my own music files.

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
    For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168

  • HOW DO I GET MY SONGS BACK TO ITUNES FROM IPOD?

    I recently had an incident with my Macbook which lead me to erase and reinstall Leopard. Obviously everything whats erased including my itunes songs. All of those songs are still on my iPod, so how do i transfer them back into my iTunes? I have the same login info and account. Shouldnt it recognize my iPod and allow me to just drag the songs back in? Help is much needed... thank you to all!

    1). Connect your iPod to your new computer. If it is set to sync 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.
    Alternatively open iTunes first and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box "Disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods" and choose Ok. Then connect your iPod.
    2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you continue to 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 connected and your iPod is safely in manual mode there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. iTunes will only give you the option to copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    For everything else (music from CDs, other downloads etc) 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):

    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
    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

  • HT3819 How can I get my windows library music into iTunes media library

    Hello I am trying to transfer my music from my Windows media in my computer to the iTunes media. I have a lot of recorded CDs in my windows media and I also have a lot of MP3 music I downloaded in the Windows media I've been trying to figure out how to get it in to the iTunes. Today I tried licking for a special ab I could use to have on my music together. And I read about the iTunes match and I purchased it thinking it was going to have all my recorded music that I have stored in my computer into the iTunes app or if not this iCloud I've been reading about. I also have a iCloud account. The purpose of me wanting this is so I could have my music in one area. I really want to use my music in different apps.  And there's a lot of abs out there that is easier for me to get from the iTunes instead of different downloaders so what I want if you could explain to me how to get my music into iTunes and I would think also the iCloud

  • TS3988 how do I get my song library and apps to icloud from my ipod? I have paid for the service and it only wants to delete what is on my ipod!

    I just got an ipad for christmas and I want to get what is on my ipod onto my ipad. I have my laptop with me and my Ipod. The main computer is not working well and is not available and won't be for a while...then it will probably take an entire day to get it to work with itunes (needs a reformat). I want to take what is on my ipod and get it to icloud then it can be available on mylaptop and my new ipad (mini). Is it possible to do?  I joined ipod match to do this. If it doesn't work, then ipad match isn't for me.  Cheers.

    First, restore the itunes library of the backup of the old drive to the new drive.  That will restore your music.
    Now, here's one thing to try (I have iTM but haven't gone from icloud down to a new mac), with iTunes Match, you could try using a new itunes library (assuming you lost the old one and have no backup), set up iTM as you did before, and see if the cloud data will come down to the new drive/computer.
    If that doesn't work, there are applications/apps that can connect a device to a mac (I assume also a pc) and let you transfer files to the computer.  As I recall, iFile may be one of them - look at the itunes app store.  There may be programs that run on the computer that can suck files from device to computer.  Google around for more info.

  • How do i get a song to delete off my ipod but not my itunes?

    Ok, well as you can see in the question above i do not want to delete the entire song from my itunes library, but i want it off my itouch. The only thing is i can't seem to get it to stay off of my itouch. I delete it off my ipod but everytime it is plugged into my computer it goes back on to my ipod. please help!?

    Hi megan,
    You have several options:
    1.     Hook your iPod Touch up to your computer in iTunes, and select the device when it appears
    2.     Go to the Music Tab for your iPod, and de-select "Entire Music Library", select instead "Selected Playlists, artists, albums, and genres
    3.     Then go below that selection button, and check all of the artists, albums, genres that you want. Any that you don't want on your iPod leave unchecked, then sync
    The other option is to create smart playlists which automatically include songs which you have designated for that playlist. Then, on that same tab shown above, you would simply select the specific Playlists you want on your iPod, and leave everything else unselected.
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

  • Itunes deleted my library from my ipod. now i only have new purchases. how can I get my whole library back onto my ipod?

    I just transferred itunes to a new computer. When I plugged in my ipod, I was asked if I wanted to erase my old library and put the new on on. I said yes because my whole library is on this computer. Now that it's done with the sync, I only have the three albums that I just purchased and all of the rest is gone. How can I sync my whole music library back onto this device?

    If the lost music and photos are no longer accessible by or on your iPod, on your PC, or in another backup somewhere, you are out of luck.  You can download most iTunes purchases again at no cost via iCloud.  See this article for more information and assistance.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    For non-iTunes purchased content, you'll need to redownload or rerip them from their original source.
    For the future, you may want to consider backing up your iTunes library and/or PC.

  • I have an Ipod touch 2nd generation and i just updated it and i lost all my songs and apps. Now i have the 4.2 version but i can even any apps and it wont let me update it again. How can I get my songs back and update my ipod again?

    Can anyone awnser this?

    - You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    However, you only can download the current version of app.
    - For apps your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.
