Moving library from one iPod to another and from one computer to another?

I hope that this is a simple, if complicated, issue:
I have a new iPod Touch (well, it's 2nd generation, but for me that is new!), and an older classic iPod. The older iPod syncs with my old desktop computer, while my new one syncs with my laptop.
I'd like to merge the desktop-based library from my old iPod with the laptop-based library for my new iPod, so that I can retire the older device. Is it simply a matter of exporting the library from the desktop and importing it to the laptop?
Thanks, folks!

Hello DWaldo,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Is it simply a matter of exporting the library from the desktop and importing it to the laptop?
Yes. Simply copy the content from your old iTunes library over to your new laptop and then import it into iTunes. You can even use your old iPod to do this,

  • How do I transfer my music and apps from my ipod touch 4g to a new computer?

    The hard drive on my old computer failed so I no longer have access to my itunes library that was saved onto that computer. Is there anyway I can transfer my music and apps to my new computer? I would prefer not using one of those shady online tools... I don't want to lose any of my music or apps since I have some paid ones on there. I'm afraid that if I connect it to the new computer then everything will be lost. If that happens the I'll never be able to get any of my music and apps back (or at least it'll be real difficult). Can anyone please please please help me?

    - Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like discusssed here:
    new PC: Apple Support Communities
    - Try to make a backup of the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Backup
    - Restore the iPod from backup and sync as necessary.

    Kindly inform any email id or toll free number to contact apple for your below answer, Mr.King_Penguin
    About receiving my credit card being debited for Free App Store Application downloads,
    It should be within a few days, but it might vary a bit by bank/provider :
    I am in India, if the bank don't refunds , what to do?
    Rajagopal.pngr :-  It is only a holding charge, it is not a permanent charge. If it isn't refunded within a few days or so (and it quite possibly won't be over a weekend) then you can query the charge with Apple.

    Do what Roger says above.
    Do you have 'in-app' purchases enabled on an iPhone/iPad or other device that kids or other family members use ?  That could be the issue.
    If not change your iTunes Store password to try to prevent whatever is doing this making further charges.
    Also if you can't find the cause, talk to your cc company.

    Then there is absolutely no way to get the pictures from the iPod to the iPad unless you import them to your computer and then import them inor iTunes and sync them to the iPad.

    Pictures don't get moved to Revel so I'm not clear what you are saying. Have you upgraded from one version of PSE to another and now have an empty catalog? Do you not have a 'My Folders' section in your Organizer left-hand panel? Please take a screenshot of your Organizer window and post it here.

  • TS3510 My ipod was destroyed, how do I unlink and apple id from that ipod touch to my new one?

    My sons ipod was dropped and destroyed.  We set his Facetime and messages with his name and own email/apple id.  Now that we have the new one, we are unable to verify his email address because it is in use with another ipod.  How do I unlink it so it can be linked to the new one.  I saw it referenced in an article, but conveniently there were no instructions on actually how to do it.

    I have to clarify a couple things since I can't edit my post.
    I have an apple id that is set up on his phone that the whole family plugs into for apps and music.  He has an email address that is verified so he can facetime.  It's the email address we are trying to unlink so he can link it to the new one.
