I got a new computer and backed up my iTunes library to an external hard drive.  The external hard drive is not allowing me to access the drive.  I no longer have access to the old computer.  Is there a way to transfer the songs from my iPod touch to my new computer?

That's a bummer, didn't realize the exHD files were corrupt, esp if you have tried from another PC and not just this new computer.
You can get purchases from the itunes store transferred from an iPod using these directions:

If you want everything (meaning non-itunes songs, app data, photos, etc) you need to buy a 3rd-party ipod manager that support iTouch. Here is an iLounge article to start your research:

  • Is there any way to transfer my media from my ipod touch to my new pc?  The media is not currently in my itunes library.

    I can not upgrade my ipod touch because music that is currently on there will be lost.  Is there any way to transfer the media that I currently have on my touch to my itunes library or my pc? 

    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases.
    Copy everything from your old copmputer, or your backup copy of your old copmputer to your new one.

  • How do I transfer my songs from my iPod Touch to my new MacBook Pro?

    Okay so I have read many similar questions, but I have not found any that share my exact problem.  I got an iPod Touch for Christmas and bought songs from the iTunes app it has, NOT FROM A PREVIOUS COMPUTER.  I have boughten 83 songs so far.  Now I just got the new MacBook Pro for graduation and haven't touched the iTunes on this computer.  It is all set up through the same Apple ID.  So again, all 83 songs that I have on my iPod did NOT come from a previous computer, they all have been bought through iTunes on the iPod Touch, how do I get those songs on my new computer?  Thank you!
    P.S. OH!  I also just got the Time Capsule (2TB), so I am not sure if that would solve my problem.

    This is answered often.

  • Is there a way to transfer garageband songs from my ipad2 to iphone4 without a computer?

    I travel a lot and my goal is to record songs in garageband on the ipad 2, upload them to my iphone to use the film apps and make a video based on where i am at the moment. This for me would be an ideal portable , creative studio and i thought it would be easy to do but all indications are that i need a computer to get things transfered via itunes which kind of defeats the purpose of being mobile.  Would be great if i could email the track to my mac account, open it on my iphone and then download it to itunes where i can then select for use in app film videos. It will then get uploaded to facebook.   Any solutions? If not, please apple make this change so we dont have to be tied down to a computer.  Any help is much appreciated! 

    When you email them to yourself there is then no way to download it straight to itunes.  If you have been able to do this without a computer id like to kmow how you did it?

  • Is there any way to get my photos FROM my iPod Touch back onto a new hard drive?

    My Mac crashed last Friday. First timeIs there any way to get my photos FROM my iPod Touch back into my new hard drive. The iTunes sync only goes one way from the computer to the iPod.
    It syncs the photos taken with the iPod (really an old iPhone 3G without phone service) but not the folders which I synced from the old hard drive to the iPod over the past year.

    thank you for the tip.
    Yes, my computer was backed up. for reasons way too complicated to go into here, these particular folders were not part of the backup.
    Thanks again for the help.

    You have the gmail account loaded on the old phone?
    All is not lost.  Try this route.  I can't remember but does the Droid 2 on an on-board file explorer?If you have Astro or Estrongs file explorer on the new phone, make a backup of SMS Backup to the SD card.  Put the sd card in the old phone , turn on the ability for third-party apps. Install the apk you saved from the other phone. Run the backup. Swap the card to the other phone properly. Restore on the new phone.
    Good luck.

  • Is there any way to transfer my music from my iPod to my iTunes without the original MP3's as my Laptop was stolen.

    Hi Guys,
    I have recently had my laptop stolen, therefore lost all my music etc.
    I have a third generation 40GB iPod with most of the music on it (ripped from CD's etc.)
    Is there anyway I can transfer the mp3's from this iPod to my new computer? Just so I can transfer it to my new iPod touch.
    It's going to be a pain having to buy all the mp3's.
