Is there a way to sync my music from my ipod to a computer without deleting it, the original computer i had it on crashed and i really dont want to lose all my music

My computer that i had my itunes crashed and i wanted to know if there was a way to transfer my music from my ipod to a new computer without completely having to resync every cd. I already have the purchased music transfered.

The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup cppy to put everything back.

  • I need to transfer music from another itunes library to my current. my last computer crashed and i do not want to lose all of the music stored on my nano. Please help!

    I need to transfer music from another itunes library. My last compter hard drive failed. I have several hours of songs and I don't want to lose these. Is there a way to transfer music from another libray to current? I have recovered the purchased music but would like to transfer other. I have a mini without a disc drive so it makes loading the same music difficult. Please help.

    I DONT WANT TO DELETE MY MUSIC FROM IPOD BUT I NO LONGER HAVE THE ORIGINAL COMPUTER THAT MY IPOD WAS SYNC'D TO AND NOW IT WANT TO DELETE MY MUSIC??? HOW CAN I AVOID THIS?

    iTunes will let you transfer your purchased songs from your iPod to your new iTunes as detailed here

    For the rest of your iPod music, you will need to use a third party program like TouchCopy to copy your iPod content onto your computer or straight to your new iTunes. There are free TouchCopy PC and Mac downloads available from here

    Also, see this YouTube video on how to use the program..

    Hello Jeanne
    If you are having issues with your iPod not showing up on your computer then check out the article below. What you need to figure out is if it does not show up at all or if it is just iTunes.

  • Is there a way to sync my ical from my iphone to my macbook without logging in to itunes?

    I'm trying to sync my iphone ical with my work MacBook. I don't want to log into my itunes account because the computer isn't mine. Any way to do this? Will this work when the cloud is fully up and running?

    Yes, this is what iCloud is designed to do: of course you will have to sign into it, but you will probably be able to start an account with a different login from your iTunes one.

  • Im having trouble launching my itunes library, Everytime i try to launch it an error message appears and says "New Itunes Libraray" How do i fix this? I dont want to lose all my music

    Anybody else having a problem saying "new itunes library"? this happened out of the blue, and i have tried numerous things, but i can not get into my itunes at all.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • Is there any way to sync my contacts on my ipod touch to Microsoft Outlook?

    Is there any way to sync my contacts on my ipod touch to microsoft outlook using the push service from Mobile Me? Or any other mode of transferring?

    Sure. Install the latest version of iTunes on your PC, and just connect your iPod Touch to it, decline the prompt to autosync (the warning about losing your music), then go into the info tab, select sync contacts, and click apply. Your contacts will be transferred (both directions, i.e. the outlook contacts and your IPT contacts will be merged and the combined set will be present on both lists).
    Hope this helps...

  • Is there a way to easily batch convert hundreds of video files to h.264, while retaining the original dimensions, metadata, etc.?

    I am organizing my library of stock video footage so is easily view (show to clients) and access. I need advice for two things:
    First: What is a good program to catalog footage in? I am considering using iTunes because I already have it and I could setup smart folders to easily organize footage.
    Second: I would like to encode all the footage to h.264 so I can preview it in Quicktime and add it to an iTunes library. My problem is all the footage is in a wide variety of dimensions, formats, framerates, strange codecs etc. I have access to Adobe Media Encoder and Apple Compressor. Is there a way to easily batch convert hundreds of video files to h.264, while retaining the original dimensions, metadata, etc.?
    I have tried using a watch folder in AME but it freezes every time I add the folder...
    Thanks for any help!

    "including library and music folders) from my computer"
    Did you move the entire iTunes folder the hold Option, select Choose library and select the iTunes folder you moved?

  • How do I transfer music from my itunes library  to my wife's on the same computer?

    How do I transfer music from my itunes library to my wife's on the same computer? I am trying to put the music that is on my phone on her phone.

    Has she transferred iTunes content to her iPhone from an iTunes library on another computer or from a different iTunes library on the same computer?
    If not, you transfer music to her iPhone from your iTunes library in the same way the music was transferred to your iPhone. If she has any iTunes content on her iPhone that was transferred from a different iTunes library, all iTunes content on her iPhone will be erased first.
