My iPod won't transfer all of my songs in my library to my iPod
Recently my computer's hard drive crashed and I lost everything on my computer. After I got that fixed, I connected my iPod and transfered my music from it back into my iTunes music library. After I transfered the music I realized I forgot to reinstall the iPod software, so I did so. But now when I try to update my iPod not all of the songs in my library will transfer onto my iPod. Most of the ones that won't are ones that I have bought from the music store. The error message is "Some of the songs in the iTunes music library, including the song Candy Shop,were not copied to the iPod because you are not authorized to play them on this computer." Please help
How do you transfer music from the iPod to iTunes. I reformatted my computer and thought I could use the iPod as my songs backup but now I can't move them back to the computer.

My iPod won't transfer all of my songs to my Library
Just downloaded iTunes on a Lenovo w530, windows 7 laptop; previously had iTunes on an iMac (2006). The iMac is broken and won't start, but I synced my entire iTunes library to my iPod (gen2).
I have already authorized the computer and signed in with my apple account.
So, when I transfer my purchases from my iPod to the laptop, it will transfer all the songs/apps/etc to the new iTunes, but it will leave most of my songs behind. Yes, I have noticed that the songs it left behind weren't purchased directly from iTunes. The other songs were either synced from CDs (e.g. Linkin Park's Living Things CD doesn't show up in new library) or purchased from other online sites. Is there a way to either sync these songs as well or to manually transfer them to my library?
If nothing else work's i'll just have to download all the songs from the CDs again...
[Also, IDK if this helps, but I'm not used to using windows at all, so there may be some strange simple thing that I'm not doing correctly, so even the simplest tip could be helpful!]
Any help would be wonderful, thanks.
-NaturalDeathThat article tells me how to "transfer my purchases", which I've already done; it doesn't tell me how to transfer the songs that don't transfer with the "transfer my purchases" option.
You didn't check on the "media recovery software" section at the end of the Tip, which covers non-purchases? -
my ipod is not syncing all of the songs in my library. it has before but i had to restore the ipod. if i click on the songs in the library it wont even play them any more ....says it cant locate the file?
Time you backed up so you can recover in the event of a crisis.

My Ipod will not transfer songs. my old PC crashed and could not recover anything from it. When I purchased my new Dell, when I loaded Itunes back on to it my content library will only transfer over purchased Itune songs. I have tons of songs I downloaded from the old "CD" onto my new Itunes account from my Ipod. Any help?
so then technically I can't transfer the songs off my ipod to my itunes library? since it is one 1 transfer from pc to ipod...correct? So when I synch my ipod the warning screen comes up and says "there are content not in the library, erase and synch library to Itunes, only purchased songs can transfer." Can I leave the songs on my ipod and when I purchase new songs to itunes I can still transfer those correct? while having the others on there that wont transfer?

Please help! My iPod won't transfer purchases to my new computer's library.
"Attempting to copy to the disk 'C:\' failed. An unknown error has occured (-69)"
This came up while my iPod was in the process of transfering my purchased songs/videos. Does anyone know how to fix this? I would appreciate the help!Point 2 might still be applicable, it explains finding which file is causing the problem.
"Watch the display at the top of the iTunes window while your iPod is being updated. The name of the problematic file should appear in the display right before the error appears"
If the file is corrupted in some way you'll most likely have to put the iPod in Manual mode and delete it unfortunately. Further down in the article is this passage "To prevent future issues, you should delete the unusable files, then restore them from a backup". The problem then might be do you have a back up or not? -

What types of purchases aren't syncing to your iPod? Apps, music, videos, etc? Are you getting any error messages while syncing your iPod?

My MacBook Pro hard drive crashed a little while ago and has been replaced. Is it possible to take tunes from iPod Classic and transfer all of them back to iTunes on computer? Is this just for purchased tunes or can I do it for ones that have been burned from CD's as well? Thanks for any help!

the computer i got most of my songs on quit working, so i decided to start buying the songs straight off of my ipod. if i were to get a new ipod would there be a way to transfer all of those songs?
If you are in the USA youu can redownload music via iThe iCloud beta now.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519After iOS5 and iCloud goes to all then you can edownload from iCloud.
If not in the USA today, you have to transfer your iTunes purchases to a computer and then sync your new iPod to that computer. To transfer:

New computer but Itunes won't transfer all songs.
I know there are other topics but basically my problem is this, my new computer won't sync all of my songs on my iPod. Apparently I'm not authorized to do so. So, I try to authoize my computer with my AOL sign in and it says I need to create an Apple id. So I click continue and it just says that the iTunes store could not process my request and to try again later.
Also, I already have an Apple id to make this post so will I be able to combine it with my AOL name?sorted it out by playing a purchased track which then required authorising. everything else fell into place.

I have songs on my iPod Touch that I want to transfer to my music library. I can "see" my songs in the library under the iPod tab, but not in my general music library.
I purchased a new computer and I am trying to find the easiest way to transfer all my files over.

1) From your OLD computer...
Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

2) If you do not have access to the iTunes Library on your Old computer... or its Backup...

Ipod won't synch because it's synched w/another library
authorized new computer, but ipod won't synch because it's "synched w/another library" - how do i connect it with my new laptop?
hey there,
That is the same for iphone and ipad. I assumed the machine you were authorizing is the ONLY machine you want to sync with. If that is correct what I said is correct.
If you want to sync your ipod with multiple machines then it is different, here is a video made earlier that answers that specific. There are loads of ways to do, and some great software (3rd party) it but this is the easiest in the video and all part of itunes secret ways. http://bit.ly/1device -
Here goes. My iPod touch has all my songs on it. I have changed computers several times and iTunes has a library of similar but not as many songs as iPod. When I plug iPod in ans go to sync it says that iTunes library will replace iPod songs. I don't want this to happen I want the I pod songs to sync with iTunes. What do I do?
That really does not work since music is not included in the backup. See:
iTunes: About iOS backups
