I just bought new ipod classic. I want to transfer my music library to new device. How do I do this?

I don't know how to transfer my music library to my new device. I have just purchased an iPod classic

"Transferring library" term is usually used with computers, If you still have old classic, you also should have computer that content came from. Once you connect your new classic to that computer- all your library will sync automatically (after registration). If you do not have computer, then it may present a bit of a problem, because as far as I know, Apple's way allows you to transfer only purchased in itunes store content - instructions in link below and you still going to need a computer. If you search these forums and Google, you will find multiple guides on using nonApple solutions. Please try to check references for those.

I have an iPod nano 2nd generation and I want to download the songs I have on it to my new computer, as my old one crashed with all the songs on it. I also got a new iPod and would like to transfer the old songs onto it. How do I do this?

Ok so sorry for clogging the community!! I figured it out - you have to copy your videos into itunes manually. I did that, synched and all good!

Without even knowing if Apple's DRM would permit this, if you are in the U.S. then that's copyright infringement.

I have just bought a MacBook Pro and want to transfer my iTunes library from my old laptop to mac. I've prepped and copied the library to an external hard drive then loaded it onto my mac however none of the music or apps are appearing.

I've moved my library to my Mac but none of my apps and only some purchased music/books appear in itunes. I'm sure I'm missing something but I'm new to Mac's so not sure what! Any help appreciated

Tunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
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. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases.

I've had my old ipod forever and want to transfer the music to my new account. Problem was is that these songs were purchased on my ex's computer by me adding money through gift cards I recieved or through a cc of mine and theres about $1200

worth and i've heard horror stories from other people saying they created a new account under their name after the breakup and it cleared their ipod. So question is, is it safe to do without losing songs. If songs are lost does apple have a way to find out what was on the ipod and be able to retrieve them.

This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
This is a picture of what it looks like now:

As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
any way to get around that?

I have just bought an ipod classic, I already have an ipod nano. The new ipod was connected to the computer to charge and it named itself with my name on the old nano, how do I get the computer to recognise the new one

My mistake, it was nothing to do with format. It woldn't sync because my movies were HD. HD movies won't sync to an iopd classic 160 GB but when you purchase a HD movie, itunes gives you a SD vervsion of the movie which is compatible with the ipod. Just needed to go to store, click movies, click purchased and untick the HD box and there you have the SD versions. Download the SD versions and then sync your ipod and bobs you uncle, movies are on the ipod

My father has just bought an IPOD. He wants to use my PC to get onto Itunes what is the best way to set this up.

My father has just bought an ipod classic and he wants to use my PC to download from I tunes. He is 88 and does not have one of his own.
I have a number of questions: What is the best way for me to set up my computer for to allow him to do this.
Would he always have to use my PC once he is set up. Can he download from elsewhere?
Can I sync his IPOD into my I tunes account ( Is this even legal).
Thanks for any advice.

Nick,
You will need a Windows PC with iTunes running and a working copy of Windows Media Player available on the machine. (iTunes calls WMP for the conversion from WMA). Then just drag the WMA file(s) into the iTunes Music window.
iTunes will detect it and give you the dialog shown below, to which you choose "Convert." iTunes will create a new version in the format/bitrate set in your Import preferences (MP3 in my example below), and immediately add it to your iTunes library.
The WMA original will be left in place, so you can delete it if you have no other need for it.

I just Bought a IPod Classic 80 GB, and it is stuck!

I just bought a IPod Classic 80GB today, and it is stuck. On the screen it says ejecting you may disconnect now. I have disconnected. My question is how do I clear that?

Hmmm, I bought a 60-GB Ipod Classic at first then it was stolen. The thing is my 2 year warranty didn't kick-in, nether did my car insurance which doesn't cover theft.
So I had to take the loss and come up with cash for another Ipod but this time it was the 80-GB Classic. Now this one has crashed. So I may try ZUNE this time, are you listening @ APPLE ? I've only had this new one since July 7th- 07.
So far I've shelled out roughly $930.00 for two APPLE Ipods with the 2 year warranty in approve. 18 months.
Another thing is that I didn't transfer the warranty to the new Ipod. They don't tell you themselves about the transfer but you have to take the initiative yourself. They never offered to give me the paperwork. There you have it the pitfall of not transferring your warranty. Without that warranty you are left holding the bag. So get that warranty puuuleeeezze.

How can I transfer music from my ipod classic 60GB to my iPhone 4 music library, just by song or whole CD that I have bought? Help needed!

load the current version of I tunes on the laptop and sync the pod. Then sync the phone - you can select all or as much of the music you want to.
Also - if the music on the pod was purchased from the itune store in the first place, you should be able to redownload it to the phone for free, as long as you are using the same apple id that it was bought with.

Thanks roaminggnome. Can I do that transfer wirelessly or do I have to get a large jump drive to copy and transfer. I presume that I cannot use my iPod right?

Hi, Just bought an ipod classic 160gb and i notice that when I turn the volume down all the way, music is still heard, i.e. I cannot turn it down lower than a certain volume. Is there a fix for this? Thanks

I've got a feeling that's the way it is. I know that if I turn the volume down all the way, I can still hear the music very softly -- which is great for listening when I have a migraine!

Bought an iPod Classic. First iPod, had a Zen for years, I want to transfer my music library, approximately 15,000 songs without creating an iTunes Media library.

Bought an iPod Classic. First iPod, had a Zen for years, I want to transfer my music library, approximately 15,000 songs without creating an iTunes Media library. All of the music is currently in WMA format. As you can imagine, 15,000 songs takes up a lot of space and I do not wnat it duplicated on my harddrive in an iTunes Media Library. What are my options?-Shawn

Change your mind, or change your device.
You can't put wma files on an iPod classic. You can't put files onto an iPod without adding them to a media library first.

Hi Ianpce,
You need to download and install Adobe Acrobat on the new machine to use it.
You can use the same subscription or the serial number to activate the product.
Thanks
