HT1329 I have imported music files on my iPod Classic which I don't have on my old PC as it had less capacity than the iPod. I now have a new PC and want to transfer the music from the iPod to my new PC so that I have back ups. How can I do this?

How do I move music imported from my old CD collection onto my iPod, which I did not retain on my old PC as there was not enough memory. I no longer have all the CDs so cannot import them to my new PC, so want to copy them directly off my iPod Classic to my new PC.
How do I do that?
Thanks

You cannot do it (transfer song files from iPod to computer) using iTunes, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store (and you can also re-download previous purchases using the iTunes Store Purchased screen).
However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can be used to transfer from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
Once the song files are on your new computer's hard drive, drag them (or the folder containing the files) to the iTunes window to add them to your new computer's iTunes library.

To get synced photos from an iPod to a computer you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView.

The ipod is not a storage/backup device. The sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You should copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

I have a new pc, and want to transfer my itunes library, help me?

I got a new computer today, it upgrades and old laptop that I'm currently running itunes off. its connected to the new computer by a wireless network, but I cna figure out how to rtansfer my library. I'm not a computer whiz, but I dont know what to do, any help would be MOST appreciated.
thanks!

Apple covers how to do this with an iPod here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300173
If you do not have an iPod and have an external Hard Drive you can still follow most the steps there to transfer your iTunes to your PC, just replace the words/steps for iPOd with "External Harddrive"
Wireless isn't that heavly recommended for this because of how wireless can suddenly drop signal, but you can just copy the whole iTunes folder and send it over to the new PC over your network. Keep in mind tho any music you have outside the iTUnes folder will not transfer over and will show up in iTunes on the new PC with a ! mark beside it

I have a powerbook G4 and want to transfer files (by linking?) to an iMac

I currently have a powerbook G4 and am thinking of buying an iMac for the house. Can the two be linked for fast and easy transfer of files? If not what would be the easiest way to share the days work on the powerbook G4 with the imac?
Also can the two monitors be used simultaneously to drag windows from one to the other, like you can with the powerbook G4 and Cinema display?

Hello and welcome,
There are a few ways to transfer files. You can set up a local network using an Airport and turn file sharing on your machines so that you can log into your iMac from the PowerBook or vise-versa.
You can also set up the PowerBook to run in FireWire Target Disk Mode (reboot and hold T until the PowerBook shows the FireWire Symbol on the screen). This will mount your PowerBook's drive on you iMac's desktop. You can access the PB's HD like you would any other drive.
As for monitors, you can connect a second monitor to the iMac using a mini-DVI to DVI or mini-DVI to VGA adapter. You can not connect the PowerBook to your iMac and be able to use the iMac as a second monitor, thus you could not drag objects from the PB's screen to the iMac's screen.
Connecting using the above methods is simple and gives you straightforward access to your connected PowerBook. FireWire will be faster than sending data via Airport connection; however for most relatively small files will transfer via Airport fast enough for daily use.

What is the best way to set up my new mini? from an Old mini

You can also connect the two via FireWire and boot the old one in Target Disk Mode.
An ethernet connection also works. A wifi connection is very slow

No, but it may help the chances of a successful installation.

Just as an aside - I have been getting messages on here from Adobe Admin saying that CS5 cannot be reinstalled because everything is now in the cloud and that for $350 I can buy CS6 to install on my new computer. What? Am I getting spammed on Adobe's site here?
Where did you see that?

I have a new ipad and want to create files for my documents I brought over from my Mac. How do I create file folders?

I would like to create file folders for my documents I brought over to my ipad from my desktop Mac. I downloaded pages and neu.annotate. My files synced without a problem. PDF articles I put in neu.annotate and pages documents into pages but I would like to organize into folders like on my desktop. How can I do this on the ipad3?

Unlike a 'normal' computer the iPad doesn't have a file system and everything on it has to be stored/associated within an app, you can't have separate folders of documents/files on your iPad's homescreens. If the apps that you have support it then you could possibly use Dropbox to store your documents within a folder structure, but you'd then need internet access in order to access them.
