Thanks

'fraid not.
the only was there may be a way would be to remove the HDD from the device (invalidating the warranty in the process), but even then it would be hit and miss.
anything purchased direct from the appletv can be sync'd back across, but i have a feeling that is not what you are talking about.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO TRANSFER MY IPOD SONGS TO MY ITUNES??

My computer was cleaned out by a computer dr because of a caught virus. All my programs including itunes were erased so i had to redownload itunes. Now all the songs from my original itunes are still on my ipod but not in my new itunes.
My new itunes only has a few of my previous purchases(not even all of them)and my new purchases.

Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the 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. When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our 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
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod.
The transfer of content sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
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
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, 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. 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.

How do I transfer an iTunes gift card balance to another computer?

How do I transfer an iTunes gift card balance to another computer?
I redeemed an iTunes gift card on one computer in the house, but don't have a home network/sharing set up. I want to be able to use that balance on another computer in the house. Any ideas?
Thanks!

+When I use this computer to order something, the charge is placed on my credit card that I used for the account and the iTunes card balance is not getting deducted.+
Sounds like you live in Canada and are buying apps. Gift card in Canada can only be used for music and movies, not apps. The apps will use the credit card instead.

Transfer Album Artwork to another computer?

Most of my album artwork has been retrieved automatically using the "Get Album Artwork" command in iTunes. Other album artwork has been copied from amazon.com or other sites. Where exactly does all this artwork get stored? How can I transfer album artwork to another computer? I see album artwork docs stored in 4 folders:
1) C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\Album Artwork\Download
2) C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\Album Artwork\Local
and ALSO in:
3) C:\Documents and Settings\MYUSERNAME\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\Album Artwork\Download
4) C:\Documents and Settings\MYUSERNAME\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\Album Artwork\Local
To backup/transfer to another computer, which of these 4 folders do I need? Why are there 4? How can I combine to 1 or 2? Do I simply copy folders from one computer to another? Which folder(s)? My iTunes library is on an ext hard drive, but the album artwork is on the C drive. I backup/transfer the itunes library by connecting my ext hard drive to the 2nd computer, and hit "Add Folder to Library", but don't know how to properly transfer the artwork folder(s). Thanks for the help!

Hi Pete,
You would copy the entire iPhoto Library folder to the other computer. Put the iPhoto Library folder in the Pictures folder of the other computer (make sure there is no library with the same name in the Pictures folder. If there is rename it.
Does the other computer have the same version of iPhoto? does the other computer already have photos in the library.
What do you want to do if there is another library on the other computer?
Copy iPhoto Library folder from one Mac to another
-If the library is small enough, burn the ENTIRE iPhoto Library folder to CD/DVD.
Drag the iPhoto Library folder from the CD/DVD to your Pictures folder of the iMac.
-If the computers are networked, copy the ENTIRE iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder of the other Mac.
-If you have an iPod, copy the ENTIRE iPhoto Library folder to the iPod. Connect the iPod to the other computer and copy the iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder of the other Mac.
-If you have a firewire cable, copy the ENTIRE iPhoto LIbrary folder to the Pictures folder of the other Mac
Things to keep in mind:
-If the usersnames are different you might have to set the permissions on the iPhoto Library folder to Read/Write for the new user. Check the "apply to enclosed items" at the bottom of the "get info" window.
-If there is another iPhoto Library folder on the other Mac, change it's name so it doesn't get replaced by the iPhoto Library folder you are copying into the Pictures folder...or....drag it to another place on your hard drive.

I have a iSight iMac model which doesn't work but it is not the HD. How can I transfer the data on the HD to another computer or external HD after taking it out of the non-working computer?

If I take the HD out of the computer, is there any hardware/software combination that will allow me to transfer the information on the HD to another computer or to another external HD?

If it is not the HD, what part is not working?
You can put the HD into an exclosure and transfer data via either Firewire or USB2

Take a look at this -> Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
Short version: iTunes will transfer the purchases made from the iTunes Store on your iPhoneh to your computer. It treats all other music and video syncing as a one-way street, to comply with copyright laws (wont sync stuff not purchased through iTunes from your iPhone to your computer).

I am confused. Is there currently a way to transfer 160 gig ipod Classic music to another computer of mine after my hard drive crashed? it has old limited library already on it?

Why won't my purchased music transfer into my songs/albums folders?

I'm using the new format for ITunes for the first time, and have run into an issue. When I purchase songs, they go to my "Playlists" Folder, but when I click on my "songs/albums" folders I just see the picture of the laptop with the options to "Scan for Music" which does nothing, or go to ITunes Store, which does as it says.
The new layout is a bit confusing to me, but I have tried manually adding a file to my library which doesnt add them, and also going from my Purchased Playlist then clicking "Add To" it will bring up my Songs Folder and I can either select the songs and click Done, or not and click done...the songs folder slides away and nothing at all is transferred.
I'm a bit confused, why doesnt it simply add them to your normal library as before in addition to "purchased"? Beyond that, what am I missing in getting them into my library?

And if none of those work, you may want to try this test:
1. Deauthorize the computer.
2. Create a new user in the system.
3. Download the free song of the week from the iTMS in the new user account.
4. Play the song in that user account to authorize again.
5. Restore the iPod (using the iPod updater) in the new user account.
6. Sync just the free song of the week and see if it plays on the iPod.
If it does, you appear to have a corrupted iTunes library file, and you should recreate the iTunes library file in your normal user account, and then sync your music back to the iPod and all should be well.

Downloading songs previously purchased on another computer

I bought about ten episodes of a tv show on my parent's computer and started downloading them, figuring that I could simply download them on the internet-accessible computer and transfer the files from this computer to my laptop via my flashdrive (I couldn't use the internet on my laptop >:(. However, due to external (and annoying) circumstances, I must stop downloading these files on this computer's iTunes. I was wondering if one could purchase songs on one computer, not download them on that computer, and then download these songs on another computer that is authorized through my account? Someone plz reply BEFORE I attack my mother.........

yeah, you should be able to stop the downloads on the first PC.
Then select “Check for Available Downloads” under the Store menu in iTunes 8 (or “Check for Purchases” under the Store menu in iTunes 7) on the 2nd PC when you get to it.
The ones you have already downloaded, you'll have to copy over with your flash drive.

Is there a way to transfer files from a mac-book to another computer?

I need to get files off of my damaged Macbook and I'm not sure how to do it. Is there a way to transfer files from my macbook to another computer? The damage is to the screen of my macbook and it is severe- you can only see the top left of screen, the rest is cracked/blacked out. Is there anything I can do?

If the MacBook has a FireWire port, hook it and the other computer up with a FireWire cable, start up the MacBook with the T key held down, and copy the files off.
