Music from another ipod to my itunes/computer via the ipod.

Is there anyway i can transfer music of my friends ipod onto my computer but just plugging there nano into my computer? Tried dragging files over and doesn't work...is this just the way it is or is there some trick to it?

The trick is to get legal copies of the music for yourself, and not steal it.
Asking how to steal music violates the terms of use for these boards, as does anyone who helps you do it.

I had to restore my computer. After reinstalling itunes and sincronizing with my ipod, the music files were not organized in itunes as in the ipod: some songs were missing, some albums has no cover? Why is the sincronization not working properly?

Can i transfer ipod touch content to a new computer via the ipod touch

can i transfer ipod touch content to a new computer via the ipod?

Yes.
But first, with iTunes open in the menu bar click Store > Authorize This Computer.
Then from the iTunes menu bar click File > Transfer Purchases From...
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
You don't need third party software to do this for iTunes purchases.

How do you know it will not let you? Are you getting an error message? What is the error message?

I have added music from my CD library to iTunes but now my iPod will not sync. Message says not enough free space. How can I sync only a portion of my library to my 8Gb Nano?

I have added music from my CD library to iTunes on my PC. I now have too many songs in my iTunes and I have insufficient space in my 8 Gb Nano. I am unable to sync my iPod now. How can I get my iPod to sync? I only want a portion of my songs on the Nano.

Hi wisemra,
First, make sure your iTunes does not attempt to sync automatically. Open iTunes, and select Preferences under the iTunes menu item:
Then, once you have hooked up your device and selected it, you should see the device Profile pages to the right. Select the Music tab:
Once you get to the Music detail screen, you will see the option to "Sync Music". You can then select "Sync Entire Music Library" or you can select "Sync Selected Playlists, Artists, Albums, Genres". Click on the second one. Then, below, you can select which of your music from the library you want on your device:
Your will show a list of your music. Mine doesn't because I sync with an iTunes library on different computer, but once you have selected the options I have shown you, you will see the music listed. Just pick what you want on your device and then click "Sync" at the bottom.
Cheers,

Getting music from another account created on my computer

I used to have an account with AOL. I purchased about $200 worth of music on this account. I have since deactivated my AOL account. How do I get the music that I bought under this account. AOL will not give me a person to talk to, and I can't figure out how to get my music by going through the help systems on Itunes or AOL. Does anybody know how I can access these songs? Thanks!

If you lost it, you don't have it, so it is impossible to transfer.
However, you would have synced it with itunes (where you saved the music originally on your computer), just sync the new iPod with itunes and you'll be able to get all your music from there.

How can I download music from another plance rather than Itunes and how can I transfer songs from my Sony to my Ipod and my laptop??

Trying to authorize my iTunes to play music from another account

I was trying to play music from another account in my iTunes. I got the message that my computer isn't authorized. I entered the email address and password of the account with which the music purchased and got another message that says "This computer is already authorized. Including this one, you have authorized 4 computers out of your available 5." Yet, I am still unable to play the music in my iTunes. Suggestions? Thanks.

There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

Something has changed on my iPod. When I sync it now it scrambles music between playlists. So, I will be listening to my jazz playlist when suddenly holiday music from another playlist is there. When I go to iTunes, however, the playlist is as it should be--jazz in the jazz playlist, holiday music in the holiday music playlist. I have two iPods--one is syncing properly while the older one is not. Any thoughts?

You are currently managing your music manually. You can either sync or manage the music manually, not both. If you want to sync, all the music currently on your phone will be erased and replaced with whatever you decide to sync to it.

Hey lightc,
If you are having an issue with iTunes not recognizing your iPad and iPod on your Windows computer, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

How can I download music from another computer's music library to my Ipod without losing my own music?

How can I download music from another computer's music library to my ipod without losing my own music?

You'll want to enable Manually Manage Music and Videos. Once you do that you'll be able to drag and drop the music from the computer to the iPod.

Uploading (sync) selected music from another computer?

How do you upload (sync) selected music from another computer?

If you want to use more than one computer with your iPod, then I would suggest using "Manually manage music and video" mode. I say that because when you go to the other computer and plug it in then your iPod is going to be erased of what is currently on it, and replaced with what your other computer has on it in iTunes. In order to get to that mode I mentioned up there you load up iTunes making sure that your iPod is connected and listed in iTunes, after it is all done syncing, click on your iPod in the source list, and then click on "Manually manage music and videos". If I were you, I would do this procedure on the computer that you have already plugged your iPod into, then after the procedure, you can use the other one. You are also going to have to go through an "Authorization" procedure. In order to do that, click on "Advanced" in iTunes and then scroll down to "Authorize this computer" and then follow any directions you may see. Oh and don't forget to click "Apply" at the bottom right of iTunes. Then you should be all set to use both computers. This will make it though so you have to manually copy music to your iPod as well as manually eject your iPod from iTunes.
