Is there a way to put music from ipod into computer?

Ok, my problem is that I have not got any trace of music on my computer and my music is on my ipod Classic. It is an 80GB one. I want to know if you can still put new music on it without deleting what is already on it. Or, if there is a way to get the music off it and into the computer. I cannot do the method suggested in this link though http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1329?locale=en_AU so any help would be appreciated.
If you have a solution if you could e-mail me at: ***********@**********.** (no 'e' after the 'w' as I was a bad speller all those years ago).
Thanks

Copy from iPod to PC
It is important not to allow your iPod to sync with an empty library. If it is set to synchronise automatically you will get a message saying your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to sync – it is important to press cancel as syncing with an empty library erases all music from your iPod.
You can also prevent auto sync by holding down shift & ctrl as you plug in your iPod and keeping the keys held down until the iPod appears in iTunes.
Once you are connected, you need to set your iPod to manage music manually.

If you have an iPod with iTunes Store purchases on it, you can use it to copy your purchases to other authorized computers.

However this is not allowed for other music.
This MacMuse tip tells you how to copy music from your iPod using Windows Explorer, but it is a bit fiddly:

Otherwise you can use third party software to manage the transfer, there are a variety of programs out there, some free and some that will copy ratings and counts as well as the music files. Here is a selection, check them out and see what suits you.

  • Is there a way to put music from an ipod into the music library?

    I want to put music from an ipod into the music library. Is there a way of doing it because i dont know how?

    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases.  File>Transfer Purchases
    Everything on your ipod should also be on your computer and included in your regular backup of your computer.

  • Is there a way of moving music from iPod Mini to computer?

    Hi, I've got heaps of tracks on my iPod Mini, that I don't seem to have in my iTunes Library...
    Is there a way to transferring these tracks back onto my computer?
    Thanks!

    You cannot do it using iTunes (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store).  However, if you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get links for third-party methods and utilities that can transfer song files from iPod to computer.
    NOTE:  Songs previously purchased from the iTunes Store can also be re-downloaded on the Purchased screen at no cost.

  • Is there any way to put music from itunes onto your 5th generation ipod touch without running iTunes 11?

    Hi everyone...hoping someone can help me!
    I have an older Macbook (I think 2008?) and I have Snow Leopard 6.8 but now the iTunes store is saying I cannot download Mountain Lion because my computer doesn't support it. I recently got a new iPod (the newest iPod touch) and would like to use it to actually listen to music as opposed to just using it for apps and Skype! Is there any way to get around this issue?
    Thanks for the help!

    iTunes 11 is compatible with Mac OS X 10.6.8, and that iPod touch model is compatible with iTunes 10.7.

  • Is there any way of moving music from ipod to a new computer with out the old computer?

  • Is there a way to transfer music from ipod to itunes?

    I accidently deleted songs in library, but i still have it on the ipod...is there anyway i can get the songs back from my ipod to itunes?

    For windows only
    1) If Itunes is already installed disk use may need to enabled so you can see the Ipod in my computer. Itunes hides your ipod from windows otherwise.
    2) Make sure you can view hidden files. In MY computer go to tools>folder options>view>show hidden files and folders.
    3) Windows should see the ipod and your music should be on your ipod in several hidden folders. To be safe I would copy it all to say your desktop.
    4) Install Itunes http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and the Ipod updater http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/ (if you don't already have it installed)
    After that drag the copied folder to Itunes (drag and drop or in Itunes (File>add folder to library)
    You may need to authorise your new computer by playing it in the library first.

  • Is there a way to send music from iPod to iTunes?

    I lost a lot of songs mysteriously. First, iTunes would not play ANY songs. I consolidated all my music to my external hard drive, which I had been meaning to do anyway. I am sure it got everything, but I am missing 300 songs. They are nowhere to be found ANYWHERE on my computer. ANYWHERE.
    Anyway, I still have them on my iPods. How can I get them off and back to my computer?

    Yes there is and I'll be happy to email you how. [email protected] is my address.

  • Is there away to put music from iPod to iPad with out connecting to itunes

    Use a Transfer software called iPad to computer transfer, also supports transfer files (musics, movies, photos, ebooks etc) from iPod, iPhone to PC or Mac.
    you can get the transfer software here (not free)

  • Any way to transfer music from iPod to iTunes

    I had to get new laptop and lost all my music from the iTunes I had on the previous lap top. Is there a way to transfer music from iPod to iTunes ?

    Or you can do it the cheap way...
    In the options screens, check "Enable Disk Use." Your ipod should then show up in your My Computer as a new drive.
    In My Computer, go to TOOLS>FOLDER OPTIONS...>View [tab] and under "Hidden files and folders," choose to "Show hidden files and folders"
    A new folder will pop up in My Computer's Ipod Drive letter called "Control" or something like that. You should be able to dig around in there and find a bunch of mp3s randomly named... Those represent your music files. Drag all the folders that have your music in it to the new computer's harddrive.
    Now go into iTunes, "add Folder to Library," Choose the folder that you drug from your iPod and iTunes will import all your music as if nothing happened. Synch it up and it will transfer all this "new music" to your iPod, replacing the old music with the "new" stuff. You'll see... It's like nothing ever happened.
    Please note that you'll lose your ratings and playlists... But honestly... Who cares??
    Happy transferring!

  • I formerly had an iPhone 3 with my iTunes account/music on it. I've recently purchased an iPhone 5s. I no longer have the iPhone 3. Is there any way to retrieve music from my account and put on my iPhone 5s?

    Yes.  Sign in to the iTunes Store with the same Apple ID you used to buy the music in settings on the phone.
    Then tap on "purchased" in the iTunes app on the phone and download the music to your new iPhone.

    is there a way to import music from my ipod to the camputer?
    I have music from all over the world and i want to import all of it to my computer..

    Sorry for insulting Apple. This whole thing has me frustrated. You would think that this is an easy thing...which it is after downloading the third party software and all.
    I am just a bit edgy after talking to 3 customer support folks for almost 2 hours, who I could barely understand and then having them just tell me to download the files again. 3500+ songs...jumping out the window was looking more pleasant (jk). Now I have to explain to the wife why the phone is busted in-two...lol.
    Anyway, I was able to get hooked up with some software and it seems to be downloading fine. I am using iPodCopy. Thanks for the nudge in the right direction and putting up with a bit of attitude. I am sure they have their reasons for not making this an easier operation.
