My computer died suddenly. Can I transfer Ipod to New Comput

Hi!
My computer died all of a sudden and all my music (files, programs etc.) are gone. Gone. Gone. No backups for music. I bought a new Toshiba laptop and just downloaded iTunes. But now what am I supposed to do? My iPod mini has about 400 songs in it. If I connect my iPod mini to my new computer/iTunes, what would happen? Would my iPod mini and new iTunes (zero songs) try to synchronize? Would I lose all my music in my iPod? Is there any way to transfer music from my iPod mini to my new iTune library? B/c my computer died all of a sudden, I just didn't have time to transfer music files to iPod mini hard drive(? or whatever it is that we need to do when we want to transfer music to a new computer.) Please help me!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Read this, it is step by step instructions on how to do what you suggest...

    Yes.
    But first, with iTunes open in the menu bar click Store > Authorize This Computer.

    You don't need third party software to do this for iTunes purchases.

    Trying to transfer ipod to new computer. It is telling me to autharize computer. Had another ipod on same account, it gone now. Don't have password or any info about it. What do I do?

    The password is for your iTunes account. Not for your old iPod. Enter your Email and password will give you access to all the music you bought from iTunes.  If you forget it then I dont know how to help you there guess your SOL.

    There is no way to transfer the music from one device to the other without using iTunes. Have you tried to recover your ID and password?

  • Can't transfer music to new computer, please help

    My old computer crashed so I can't connect it to my new one to transfer my songs. I plugged my ipod into the new comp before downloading itunes and I save my playlists onto it in My Music. Then I downloaded itunes and tried to transfer my music into my library. It says theres an error and the songs can't transfer. Also, the ipod's songs pop up when I click on the ipod but they're gray and I can't highlight, move, play, or acceses them in anyway. I reeaallly don't want to download my 800+ songs all over again so any tips will be appreciated!

    I'm new to this Discussions Forum but I've notice so many people with the same problem as u...I guess I'll just post my solution here n hope it relieves some of everyone's headaches..

    3) Click on "Sounds, Speech, and Audio Devices"
    4) Click on "Portable Media Devices", then a list of ur portable devices should pull up,
    including ur ipod.
    5) Click on ur ipod, then it should pull up folders named "Calendars" "Contacts" "Notes"
    "iPod_Control" n "Photos"
    6) Click on the "iPod_Control" folder, it should pull up several folders named "Artwork"
    "Device" "iTunes" n "Music"
    7) Click on the "Music" folder which would bring up several folders named "F00" "F01" "F02"
    and so on and so forth.
    8) All you have to do is copy n paste ALL the folders onto ur new hard drive, like ur
    desktop or "My Music" folder.
    9) Open up ur new itune on ur new computer, go to "file", "add folder to library", and

    If the photos were synced to the iPod you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView

    If you are asking about AppleCare and if that is transferable, the answer is apparently yes for new purchases at this time (not sure if this same policy was in place when your computer was originally purchased):
    "With Transfer of Covered Equipment to New Owner. Subject to the restrictions set forth below, you may make a one-time permanent transfer of all of your rights under the Plan to another party, provided that: (a) the transfer includes the original Proof of Purchase, the Plan's Confirmation and all of the Plan's packaging material, including printed materials and these Terms and Conditions; (b) you notify Apple of the transfer by sending, faxing or e-mailing notice of transfer to Apple Inc., ATTN: Agreement Administration, MS: 217AC, 2511 Laguna Blvd, Elk Grove, CA 95758, U.S., fax number 916-405-3655 or [email protected], respectively; and (c) the party receiving the Plan accepts the Terms and Conditions of the Plan. When notifying Apple of the transfer of the Plan, you must provide the Plan Agreement Number, the serial number of the Covered Equipment being transferred and the name, address, telephone number and email address of the new owner."

  • Computer #1 dying - how can I transfer library to computer #2?

    Please tell me I don't have to RE-upload my entire library because I had to get a new computer. I tried syncing my ipod nano to my new computer and it said I couldn't dump any songs from the ipod onto my new computer, unless they'd been purchased. I'm not trying to do anything illegal - just trying to save myself hours of extra work (with a newborn, I need the hours, and crave the ipod!;)
    thanks!

    Assuming that the audiobook is in a format that is compatible with the iPad, you can add this in the same way that you do any other media.
    If you manually manage the content of your iPad, drag and drop the audiobook to the device entry in the sidebar (or drag it to the left edge of the iTunes window until the sidebar appears).
    If you sync content to your iPad, include the audiobook in the settings for your iPad (either by selecting it directly or including it in a playlist that's part of your sync operations).

  • Can't restore ipod on new computer`

    I just got a new Imac. After I charged my Ipod for the first time on the new computer, It was full of gibberish when I turned it on. I tried to restore it, but I got an error message and it wouldn't continue. Tried that twice and came up with the same message. I took it into my local Apple store, and they restored it no problem. Then I plugged into my computer to sync and put the music back on, and it froze as it was loading music. Then it wouldn't recognize the Ipod, and again I couldn't restore. Plugged the ipod into my old mac, and it restored just fine. Then again plugged into my new mac and tried to put the music on, and same old story. Plugged it into my old mac and it is loading the music just fine. The problem has to be the new computer and/or itunes installed on it. What am I needing to do here??
