My PC harddrive has crashed and cannot be recovered. Can I upload all my songs, (CD's), from my IPod to my new computer?

    What options do you have enabled from under your iPod's Summary and Music tabs for syncing preferences?

    You can only transfer PURCHASED music. Click on transfer purchases under file on the iTunes main screen when your device is plugged in. 

  • Hard drive crashed- is there any way to burn songs from an ipod?

    hi mac geniuses. my HD crashed. there is a pearl jam concert that i downloaded from their website after i went to the concert. the concert is not available for download any longer. is there any way to burn songs or transfer songs from an ipod so i don't lose this music?? as soon as i plug in my ipod to my 'new' computer, it will be wiped. thanks!

    1). Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
    2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    3). Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. There are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files (purchased and non purchased) and playlists from your iPod. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here (you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well):

    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
    4). Keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
    5). I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

  • Hard drive crashed.  How do I get the music from my iPod to the new drive?

    I have a 20GB iPod that I use with a Dell (XP) computer. The hard drive on the computer crashed and has been replaced with a new one. I don't have a backup of my library, but the iPod is up to date. Is there some way I can download the songs on the iPod back to the new hard drive to recreate the library and playlists as before?
    Thanks.

    Check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer.
    There's also another method. I've successfully tested this across several different Windows PCs.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), there's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    The above methods may depend on what version of iTunes you are running.
    If none of these methods work, try CopyPod which also supports the transfer of videos from iPod to computer.

    How can I upload my iPods library into a new iTunes account on a new computer.  My old account and lilbrary was lost when my computer crashed.

    you cant. You can transfer purchases, but nothing that was not purchased with itunes will transfer.
    You can import photos as well.

  • I can't get my songs from my ipod onto my new computer

    My old computer crashed and won't even turn on anymore. I purchased a new PC and downloaded itunes. When I attach my ipod it tells me that the songs are not authorized. I've tried to go through the listed steps for authorization, which doesn't help. I've also looked through all the help, but every one involves changing things on your old computer, which I can't do... Help!

    You could use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.
    SharePod is also freeware.

  • My dad has dementia - does not remember his password. His hard drive has been erased. We need to reload Mountain Lion and can't figure out how to do it.

    My dad has dementia - does not remember his password. His hard drive has been erased. We need to reload Mountain Lion and can't figure out how to do it. Internet recovery asks for his Apple ID and password. He has no idea. I have an Apple ID but have never bought anything through the iTunes store so it won't accept my Apple ID. I don't know if his computer is under warranty. He does not remember if he has Applecare. I tried reinstalling Leopard -- the computer originally came with Leopard -- but the computer screen goes grey and a message comes up saying I need to restart. He wants to give this computer to me since it's useless to him. What do I do to get a system on it again?

    You will need to reformat the hard drive to go back to Snow Leopard or Leopard.
    Does he have a Snow Leopard Disk? He should, as there is no way to go from Leopard to Mountain Lion without it. If you can find the Snow Leopard Disk, I'd at least start with that.
    You will need to use Disk Utility in the installer to format the hard drive and get rid of the recovery partition.
    Boot from the installer disk by holding down the C key on restart. When it boots, Open Disk Utility (Utilities menu, at least in Snow Leopard).
    Select the Hard drive and then click the Partition tab.
    Select 1 Partition from the partition menu.
    Select Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format.
    Name the drive (Macintosh HD is the standard).
    Click Apply to partition the drive.
    When it is done, quit Disk Utility and install the OS.

  • Just got a new mac computer and none of the music from my old computer's itunes transfered when I transfered the contents of the hard drive.  Now I'm trying to transfer music from my ipod and can't get all the files....help?

    Just got a new  computer and none of the music from my old computer's itunes transfered when I transfered the contents of the old hard drive.  Now I'm trying to transfer music from my ipod and can't get all the files....help please?

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
    Have you failed to do this?
    If so, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You may be able to purchase a third partyn program to get the rest ( not supported by Apple)

  • How do I reinstall Indesign after my hard drive has been deleted?

    How do I reinstall Indesign after my hard drive has been deleted?

    After getting a hard drive back in working order you can either reinstall the software using the disks if you purchased disks, or you can download your software as a trial version and use your original serial number to activate it. 
    If the software is the latest version you can download it from Adobe's product pages. 
    If the software is an older version you can download the trial version of the software using the link below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site.
