Is it possible to transfer songs from my ipod to my new laptop?

Is it possible to transer songs from my ipod to my new laptop? even though I had home share on the last one, it blue screened and won't switch on, and I don't want to lose my music as I only have 1/2 of it backed up on disc.

Purchased songs can only be downloaded once without having to purchase them again.
There are some suggestions in this link about how to attempt to recover lost songs using some 3rd party software.

Does anyone know how to transfer songs from my IPOD to my Computer?

As title, does anyone know if I can transfer all my songs from my Ipod, to my computer. Because the thing is I'm getting an iTouch but I don't have all my songs on my PC, it's all on my ipod.
So i want to move all my songs from my ipod to my PC, is it even possible?

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:

If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content only 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
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: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

How do I transfer songs from my iPod to my computer?

I just recently had to get my computer re formatted and it was so screwed up they were not even able to get into my music files to back them up on discs. Is there a way to connect my iPod to my computer and transfer the songs from my iPod to my computer without destroying my music files or losing them? I heard if I do this it will enter all my songs as number sequences... is there anyway I can have the songs entered as their normal titles???

Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a 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. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. 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. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: 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. 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 to a computer
The transfer of content from other 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.

There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
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.

Why can't I transfer songs from my ipod to my computer

When I runn diag. it says no ipod is conneted. THe itunes does connect to the ipod just can't transfer songs from the ipod.

Try reseting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

Is it possible to import songs from your ipod to itunes?

Somehow, my itunes got screwed up on my pc. So, I am missing about 100 songs. The songs are all on my ipod because I haven't synced them in a while. Is it possible to import the songs from my ipod into itunes? If so, how do I do it?
To make matters more complicated, my itunes now says that the ipod is synced to a different itunes, so if I sync them up, the songs on the ipod will be replaced by the songs on itunes (causing me to lose those 100 songs). Can anyone please help me?

If you're using iTunes 7, you can copy music that you purchased from the iTunes Store back to iTunes directly. You will have to prevent automatic synchronization. While connecting the iPod to the computer, hold down the Shift and Ctrl keys in Windows. This should stop the iPod from auto synching with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 3 and 25 seconds depending on your computer.
If you're not using iTunes 7 or want to copy other tracks, the easiest way will be to search VersionTracker for "iPod". You'll find a number of utilities that can transfer your tracks and your playlists from your iPod back to your PC.
It's also possible to do this manually, but the procedure is rather involved. If you're interested, though, see this thread:

IS IT POSSIBLE TO TRANSFER SONGS FROM ONE IPOD TO ANOTHER?

I have an ipod full of songs and want to transfer those songs to a different Ipod. (My computer is broken so I cannot simply connect the second ipod to my computer) If I can get my hands on a new computer, is it possible to transfer the contents of my first ipod to the computer, then transfer those songs onto the second ipod?
Thanks.

With the exception of songs purchased from the iTunes Store (which can be transferred from an iPod using iTunes), you have to use a third party utility. I use this one called Music Liberator

but there are many others.
Once you get the songs off the iPod and into the new computer's iTunes, syncing the other iPod will complete the transfer.

HT1296 Does anyone know how to transfer songs from your ipod touch to a new computer?

I've already transferred the purchased songs to the new itunes library. I'm just having trouble getting the rest of the songs, that are from my old itunes library, onto my new computer. I don't know if this matters or not, but I have a 2nd generation ipod, and I'm using a PC.

How to transfer songs in your iPod to a computer (the easy way)

hi everyone
this is another solution to the most common problems lately, check it out
1: i certify that this solution works with windows XP, don't attempt to try it on macs cuz i dunno what could happen
2: go to my PC, right click your iPod, select explore
3: set WinXP to show all hidden files and folders, you should now see a new folder named "iPod_Control", double click it
4: in the folders inside "iPod_Control" there's one called "Music", double click it
5: you should now see thousands of folders named like F01, F02, F03, etc..., inside those folders there's your music, COPY not cut and paste all those folders on my docs folder or other location where you can easily find them later...
6: now, go to iTunes and click file - add folder to library, select all of the foldes copied and click add
7: iTunes will now show all your media contained on your iPod on the library, except for movies, games and photos
thats it, i recommend that you set up iTunes to copy all added files to your iTunes music folder, in that way, you'll have the songs on a folder that is easier to handle and that after done the job, cosolidate your library for better results
i'm workin on a way to extract also the movies and photos
see ya later, as usual, if havin' trouble after doin this, leave a comment, i'll reply as soon as possible
Der Feniks...

if you dont have itunes installed, WinXP will recognize the iPod without a problem doesnt matter
about the auto-update, itunes will only do this if its set up to do it so when you install itunes and recognizes the ipod, and is set up to auto-update, it will prompt you to do so, click no so you can save your files on it

How can I transfer songs from my IPOD to the computer?

I had a computer issue and some songs in Itunes got erased, they are however on my IPOD still. I used to get a message that askedme if I wanted to transfer music that was on my IPOD to the computer and the answer was usually no - so i clicked the box "Dont ask again" and now I need it. Anyone know how to fix it? Thanks!

I had a similar problem. Download a program called "Yamipod" and it will allow to copy the music back into iTunes. I did it with about 5300 songs and it worked fine. Keep in mind the program runs off the iPod, so no installation on the computer is necessary.

Is it possible to upload songs from your iPhone to iTunes?

Is it possible to upload songs from your iPhone to iTunes?
I have music on my phone which was previsouly on my itunes but I lost everything on my computer, is there anyway to get my music back onto iTunes? I did not purchase this music from iTunes.

The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases - File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
The iphone is not a storage/backuip device.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a abckup copy of your computer for this very occasion. Have you failed to do this?
If so, then you may be able to purchase a third party program ( not supported by Apple) to get the songs.
