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 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.

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!

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.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
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:
http://discussions.apple.com/messageview.jspa?messageID=797432
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 use music from multiple users itunes libraries on one iMac for a slideshow in Aperture?

I am trying to put together a slide show for a trip my wife and I took to England. I would like to be able to use music from both our itunes libraries in the slide show. I am using Aperture to create the slide show since it seems to be more versatile than iPhoto for this. Only trouble is that when I log into my username on the iMac I only see my iTunes library and similar when logging into her username. We have different music but would like to use some from each library in the slide show.

You can only use one library at a time in an Aperture slideshow, so I'd suggest to simply collect the audio that you want to use in a folder (export the songs from both iTunes Libraries) and then import this folder to Aperture. Now you have a project containing the audio files; you will see it in the Aperture Audio section of the audio Browser, right above the iTunes section.
You can use the Apperture audio just like the audio in iTunes to drag to the timeline of your slideshow.

Is there a way to transfer music from touch to itunes?

I just got a new laptop and I dont have any music on it yet so I wanted to transfer the music from my ipod touch to my itunes account on my new computer. Does anyone know of a way?

If you only want to copy your purchases to the computer that can be done using iTunes, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
For everything else (including purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod Touch or iPhone. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer data (such as playcounts and ratings), movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well.

Is there a way to transfer music from iPhone to iTunes?

I recently had a nasty virus on my Sony Vaio and my hard drive had to be replaced. Although I had all of my pictures and documents backed up, the only places that I had my music (3,000 songs) was on my iTunes library and my iPhone 4. All of my music was gone when I got the new hard drive. The music that was on iTunes was from CD's that I borrowed from my friends and mixes that they gave me, so I can't transfer the purchases through my account. I have Windows 7 on my PC and the latest version of iTunes. I've been lazy and haven't updated the software on my iPhone since summer. If i update the software on my iPhone to IOS 5, is there a way to get the music from my iPhone back to my computer via iCloud, or is there another method that I can use?

Google for software to extract the music from the iPhone.
There is no supported way via iTunes to extract the media.
Once you've rebuilt the library, BACK UP everything!

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 upload songs from iPod to iTunes?

My old computer broke,so all of my songs from my old iTunes are gone. Is there any way that I could upload the songs from my iPod, to my iTunes? Is there any type of software I'd have to download, that could do this?

Hi Bubblez,
There're lots of programs that can help you doing this. Transfer songs from yoou iPod and bought on iTunes Store is even easier, you just need to click "Transfer Purchases" on the left Source Panel.
Just read this [thread|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6189621&#6189621] and pay attention to the Zevoneer's post.
Hope this helps!

Is there any way to transfer music from the old iTunes to iPhone 5S?

I am still using my old macbook, version 10.6.?? (forgotten), I don't intend to upgrade the OS X, since everything is working fine. So the iTunes in it is also the older version, since my software doesn't support the new version of iTunes. And thus, I can't get my music into the iPhone 5S that I've just bought. Any kind souls that can help me with this?

Update to Mac OS X 10.6.8 and iTunes 11.1.3.

Is there a way to import music from my ipod to the computer?

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.
