I have an older ipod classic 40GB, how can I update /resync it to my new comp?

Hello Elizabeth,
You want to know how to sync content from your iPod back over to your computer correct?  If so, see this article for different possibilities.

Once you have successfully, moved all your content from your iPod back over to your new computer, erase and sync your iPod with iTunes.

  • I have an older Ipod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new Ipod Touch and cannot be updated.  Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one?

    I have an older iPod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new iPod Touch and Itunes cannot be updated.  Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one?  It is my understanding that the music cannot be saved onto my new iTunes, b/c I did not have iCloud. I have over 2,000 songs I just cannot part with. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help some how!!  THANKS!

    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?

    i have 4 ipods on itunes but my computer was running slow so i put windows 7 on it but it wants me to sync my ipod but if i do i will lose all my music on my ipod how do i take my music and send it to my playlist so i can sync myipod so i won't lose any music

    Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device.  Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
    You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

    As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software.  A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

  • HT1386 I have an older ipod classic with tons of music I collected over several years.  I want to add the music from this to my itunes library.  When I connect it, I don't see that option. How can I do this?

    I have an older ipod classic that I have had for about 5-6 years.  I used this to download music from cd's through an older computer that doesn't work anymore.  I want to add the music to my current computer I-tune library, but can't figure out how to do it.  How do I import this music from my older itunes ipod so that I can then sync some of it with my iphone.  Hate to lose all of this music since it took me years to collect and download it.

  • My 160g iPod classic was originally formatted to PC and I have now moved across to Mac. What problems will I encounter syncing my iPod with my iTunes on my Mac?

    My 160g iPod classic was originally formatted to PC and I have now moved across to Mac. What problems will I encounter syncing my iPod with my iTunes on my Mac?

    If it's formatted for usage with PCs, syncing it from a Mac may be slow, it can't store files which are 4GB or larger, and its firmware can't be updated from a Mac without restoring it.

    Hello Analogue guy living in wireless world,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to sync your music to your iPod.
    I recommend trying to sync your music again using iTunes.  When you have your iPhone connected to iTunes, I recommend checking the Music tab to verify that Sync Music is checked.  From here, you will be able to select to sync your "Entire music library" or "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres:"
    I recommend reviewing the full article here:

  • Are the newer ipod classics (80GB and above) compatible with docks for the older ipod classics (20GB)?)

    are the newer ipod classics (80GB and above) compatible with docks for the older ipod classics (20GB)?)

    I have an iPod Touch 2 with iOS 4.2.1.  This is the highest version that works on this device.  I checked it once and it had to do with iOS 4.3 and above only supporting the higher RAM CPUs on newer devices.
    Apple does make it harder than it needs to be.  There still remain a number of apps available on iTunes that will work but they are hard to find because you must manually look at each app specs to see if the app supports an iOS below 4.3
    App backups are your friend since iTunes has no way to keep older version of apps.

  • I have an iphone 4 connected to my imac/itunes using a designated email address.  However, I also have an 80gb ipod classic which is connected to my general email account. How can I transfer my ipod to the same account as the iphone

    I have an iphone 4 connected to my imac/itunes account using its own designated email address. However, I also have an 80gb ipod classic which is connected to my general email address. How can I delete this and transfer the ipod to the same account as the iphone 4. Thankyou

    iPods, iPhones, and iPads aren't tied to one particular iTunes accout/Apple ID.  So there are no special instructions to follow to allow you to sync it with your newer account.  Simply sync it as you would your iPhone 4.

    Try to restore the iPod. Here's an article that provides troubleshooting for it.

    If that doesn't work visit an Apple Store and see if they can replace it.

  • My iPod Classic 160GB is recognized by computer, and goes through sync process, but still has old stuff...

    My iPod Classic 160GB is recognized by computer, and goes through sync process, but still has old stuff...
    I feel like there must be an issue with the library location, but I don't know how to correct that.  My Dad recently wiped my computer and deleted Windows XP and installed Windows 7.  I don't know what he did, but my iTunes library is still intact it seems. However, I've added quite a few podcasts that I'd like to sync to my iPod.  When I connect it, it goes through the sync process, but ends quickly and says its safe to disconnect.  None of the new podcasts are on there though.
    Also, there was something really wrong with my iTunes account.  When I went to buy something from the store, it wouldn't accept my password, and when I went to reset it, it wouldn't recognize my birthdate and month (I had the correct username).  I ended up creating a new account and purchasing a song.  This time, it did sync the new song onto my iPod, but not the podcasts I'm trying to sync.
    As far as the library location, is there anything particular that has to be included in that library in order for it to be recognized by iTunes when you sync?  Awhile back (before my Dad worked on my computer), I had changed the folder location to my external hard drive, but in researching, I saw that I still had in another drive some folders with music that is currently on my iPod.  So it looks like I have some stuff on two different drives... Maybe this has something to do with it not syncing right?
    I did check, and my Firewall doesn't have iTunes blocked.
    As you can see, I'm not very experienced with all of this... Sorry for the confusion.  If you are interested in helping me and have any questions, please let me know.
    I'm hoping someone will be able to help me... I desperately want to be able to listen to my podcasts, as I'm a stay-at-home Mom of 4 little ones, and the podcasts are kind of an "escape" for me when the children are napping or playing. :-) 
    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Oh my goodness!!  I am absolutely thrilled right now B-rock!!  I don't know how I missed it, but when I went back to change the setting like you mentioned, I noticed that the very top box that says "Sync Podcasts" wasn't checked!  I have no idea why... But my heart started to race when I checked that box and all of a sudden it started syncing all my podcasts!!  It's gonna take a long time (I have 385 of them!), but I am just so happy you helped me with this problem.  Thank you SO much! 

  • I have an old ipod and want to know how to get everything off it and into my iTunes library.  My old computer died and the original library was lost, so don't have any of the content saved anywhere else.

    I have an old ipod (it's the very thin oblong one in purple, the one before the one that does video) and want to know how to get everything off it and into my iTunes library.  My old computer died and the original library was lost, so don't have any of the content saved anywhere else.  I now have an iPhone 5S and listen to music on that, so want to be able to listen to things from the old ipod too.
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks very much
    Jane

    Apple normally does not get involved in handling lost objects like this.  Since a real name is not installed it will be much more difficult.
    You can try contacting Apple support at the US number, assume you are US going to BWI from the listing: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and explain the situation and see if they offer any suggestions.

    Hello, Ray. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    There are a couple options available to you to transfer purchased media to your computer.  Below, I have included a couple articles that outline this process.
