    My laptop recently crashed and is unsalvageable with my itunes library on it.  My ipod still has all of my music still on it. 
    Is there a way that I can put the songs on my ipod onto itunes on my new computer without loosing them or having to buy them all over again?

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your iPod for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • Is there a way to transfer all of the songs from an iPhone (4), to iMac using iCloud?

    I honestly don't know what happened one day all of my music just vanished off of the system.
    But I still have all of my songs, books, movies etc on my iPhone.
    I know you can transfer things from your Macbook, imac etc from iTunes to your iPhone, but is there a way to do it the other way around?,
    PLEASE HELP! It will be much appreicated, my iTunes library started 6 years ago, that's a lot of music lost!

    Music purchased from iTunes can be transferred from your phone using iTunes, however other music cannot.  To do this requires 3rd party software such as PhoneView (mac) or Touch Copy (pc or mac).

  • Is there a way to import all of my songs from my iPhone to iTunes?

    i just got my first Mac.  All of the files from my PC were deleted, so I'm wondering if there's a way to load all of the songs, pictures, etc on my iPhone to my Mac?  I'm worried that if I connect my phone, it may sync and erase everything I have saved.

    You can Prevent automatic syncing one time, without changing settings:  Open iTunes. Then, as you connect iPhone to your computer, press and hold Command and Option keys (on a Mac) until you see iPhone appear in the iTunes sidebar.
    To load all the stuff from your phone, you'll need to use a 3rd-party uitility. Here are 2 that will work:

  • I have a first generation iPad and got my husband the iPad 2 for xmas.  is there a way to transfer his tiny tower game from my iPad to his without using the same iTunes account?

    I have a first generation iPad and got my husband the iPad 2 for xmas.  is there a way to transfer his tiny tower game from my iPad to his without using the same iTunes account?

    Apps are only tied to one account... You can set up two iTunes accounts on your computer, however, and let his iPad sync to his account. If he has never backed up his apps to a computer, however, he will have to redownload all the apps. Afterwards, he can backup to iCloud instead of your computer.

  • I am not very tech savvy, installed Firefox and it w0n't communicate with my email (incredimail). also is there a way to transfer my favorites/bookmarks over from IE to firefox? Those two things would be a great start!

    I am not very tech savvy, installed Firefox and it won't communicate with my Incredimail. If I click on a link in my email it does nothing. ie: if i click on the pay now button on ebay or paypal it goes nowhere. also is there a way to transfer all my favorites/bookmarks from IE to firefox. I've heard Firefox is so much better than IE but I am getting frustrated (probably out of my own ignorance of the program) and ready to go back to IE. Please help! Thanks. Jeanne

    I cannot help with Incredimail, but I do know how to transfer bookmarks.
    One can use File > Import from the menu or export favourites from IE as .html and then import the file into Firefox from the "Show all bookmarks" window. To get the menu to show up, press Alt. Firefox should have offerecd to import several items from IE when you first set it up. Did it not do that?

  • Is there a way to make a smart "playlist" of specific books in my iTunes library, and copy ONLY THOSE books to an iOS device? I own an iPad and an iPhone but I want different books on different devices.

    There is no playlist for iBooks, butther eis nothing to preent you from choosing to download specific titles from itunes, or syncing just specific titles to an individual device.

  • Is there a way to copy or back up contacts from my Ipod touch without using Itunes?

    Is there a way to copy or back up contacts from my Ipod touch without using Itunes?

    Are you sure that you can transfer contacts from the iPod to Skydrive?
    I would try the links that I previusly provided and try to get iTunes to see the iPOd so you can do everthing right.
    If you find a computer that can see the iPOd yu can update the iPod on that computer.  See:
    iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5
    Yu can make that your suncing computer by -
    - Transfering iTunes purchases:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Connect the iPod and make a backup by right clicking on the iPOd under Dvices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore from that backup. That will also update the iPod.

  • Is there a way to move songs from my iPod to the Library?

    I used my friends computer to download some music (I have dial-up) and now I want to copy some of the songs to the library. Is there a way I can do this?

    hey i wanted to do that too a while ago and this is what someone told me, hope it works for you. this is also the way to do it without downloading any thing.
    The manual way around this problem is to use the iPod in its alter ego - that of portable computer disk drive. Successfully tested under iTunes for Windows 4.2, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7; Windows XP Home.
    - Start with the iPod disconnected from the computer - DON'T CONNECT IPOD YET
    - open iTunes
    - open iTunes Preferences - this blocks iTunes from seeing an iPod connection; leave the preferences window up and running
    - connect the iPod to the computer, wait about 15 seconds before continuing
    - open 'My Computer'
    - Tools menu, Folder Options, View tab, enable 'show hidden files /folders'
    - open iPod icon in My Computer
    - open iPod_Control folder
    - you should see a folder named Music
    - drag this folder to somewhere on your computer hard drive
    - after the copy completes, right-click the new Music folder on your hard drive and select 'Properties'
    - clear the checkmark next to 'Hidden'
    - Close that explorer window
    - eject iPod from System tray "Safely Remove Hardware" icon. This icon looks like a small gray rectangle with a green arrow floating above it. It's only there when a removable device (like the iPod in this case) is attached to the computer. Right-click & select 'Safely remove..', then click 'Stop' in the next window, OK in the next window, and then Close to complete the ejection.
    - disconnect the iPod from the computer
    - go back to iTunes, cancel the preferences window
    - File menu \ Add folder to Library \ find that Music folder copied over from the iPod
    Your iTunes library should be back in action! But wait - there's more!!
    Long time forum regular Otto42 has a java script/program that can also retrieve the playlists themselves from the iPod as well. Here are his instructions and a link to the most recent thread discussing this tricky process:
    This is really useful when you're pulling all the songs off of an iPod to put them back into iTunes, because you lost your library or anything along those lines. Come up with your own reason for using it.
    Download this program:
    http://otto.homedns.org:8888/iTunes/iPodGetXML.zip
    (If you can't download it, try again later. The connection goes up and down a lot.)
    Now, put the iPod into Disk Mode or otherwise access the iPod as a drive. Make sure you can see hidden files, then go to the drive and the iPod_Control folder and find the iTunesDB file. Copy it to your PC.
    Put the copied iTunesDB file in the same directory as this program, then run the program. It'll read the iTunesDB, get all the playlists, and create an XML file for each one. Now just import those XML files into iTunes to recreate the playlists.
    Notes:
    - The songs in playlist must already be in the iTunes library. If any one of them isn't there, iTunes throws up an error when you try to import the XML file.
    - The song names, artist names, and album names in the library all must be identical as to what the iPod has. If you just copied all the music off the iPod and into iTunes, this will be the case, so it's generally not a big deal. but you'll get an error if it can't find the song in the iTunes library, so it's something to keep in mind.
    - It probably won't be able to cope with unusual characters in song names. Sorry, not worth my time to fix. Dealing with unicode is way annoying.
    - Smart Playlists get changed into regular playlists. It's possible for me to add the smart playlist stuff in there, but it'll take a while to work it all out.

  • Can I use my old IPhone as an Ipod, and download songs from ITunes?

    Can I use my old IPhone as an Ipod, and download songs from I Tunes?

    Sure, it will work just fine that way. Leave the deactivated sim in the phone, as you'll need it should you ever have to restore or upgrade the software on the phone. You can't activate any GSM iPhone without a valid sim in the phone.

    If you cannot powerup the phone, there would be no way to recover the photos from the device. Have you tried to just connect it to the computer? If the photos are that important, have you considered possibly a 3rd party repair to just fix the screen so you can access the device, or was there more broken than the screen?

I don't have any of these as I download from Audible or I use Audiobook Builder to stictch together mp3 files into m4b files. To find these Click on Books you will immediately see a section for books (in reality ebooks). Scroll down past that and you will see Audiobooks where you can select and deselect.
