New Computer...transfering music from Nano to new ITunes Library

I just loaded itunes on a new computer. Itunes recognizes my nano and the music on it, but how do I transfer that music to the Itunes library, so that the music will be on my new computer. Might be simple but I can't figure it out.

There's thrid party software that makes this a bit easier to do.
Try Yamipod.

  • Transferring music from ipod shuffle to itunes library

    Our computer crashed and we want to retrieve our music by transferring it from our ipod shuffle. It only transferred 5 of the songs out of 200+???
    Please advise if you know how to do this or if it is even possible. I already authorized this pc to be able to use the existing itunes account.

    You cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store.  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once the songs files are on your computer's drive, add them to your iTunes library.

    I second the whole iTunes folder approach.
    If for some reason you have split the media folder from the library files then the media folder needs to restored to the same path it used to have while the library files can be copied into the music folder of your new profile.
    If in dobut, backup up the entire Documents and Settings folder before wiping the infected drive, but be selective about what you restore as many viruses drop active components capable of reinfecting the compuer in the temp folders and internet caches. It is much easier to backup more than you need than to discover after the fact that you no longer have access to some vital project you'd been storing in a folder on the desktop.

  • Transfering music from Nano to Classic

    Hi Friends. I bought a 120 GB Classic today and *am wondering if I can transfer my existing music from my 4 GB Nano to the Classic?*
    I hope so! I'll be crushed if it can't be done.
    Also, *does my Classic have to be 100% charged before I can transfer tunes to it?*
    Please help, thank you!

    Hi Friends. I bought a 120 GB Classic today and am wondering if I can transfer my existing music from my 4 GB Nano to the Classic?
    You can't transfer directly from one iPod to another. The music must be in iTunes to transfer to an iPod, and from your post it seems as though it isn't. Very bad idea!! Anyway, to get the music from your nano back to the computer/iTunes, read on.
    For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    Find out how to do that here.
    How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
    For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
    Much easier ways are to 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.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump.
    If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
    iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
    There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
    More information is contained here.

    Also, does my Classic have to be 100% charged before I can transfer tunes to it?
    Not necessarily, but it would help since transferring data to an iPod can put a huge drain on the battery.

  • HOW: sync music from nano to my itunes so i can add it to my playlist.

    tried to connect the nano to my itunes that is shared by 3 other devices, but it said it will erase music... does that mean it will erase the music from the nano? I want to add the nano music to my itunes, dont want to lose them.....HELP

    Yes, it will erase all content from the Nano and replace it with what is in the new iTunes library you are syncing it with.

  • Transferring music from my ipod to itunes

    My computer crashed and I lost all of my music. I've been trying to figure out how to transfer music from my IPod to ITunes. Any suggestions?

    " I also want to add the music that was already in my ipod"
    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.
    However it appears that no playlists or any other info such as ratings/last played etc will transfer.
    If this is important to you, you may want to use other options.
    There's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod to iTunes.

  • I want to sync music from iPhone to Mac iTunes library

    Im all confused.  my existing library on my computer is all messed up. I have a bunch of duplicate song files and some that aren't able to "be found" and I want to somehow wipe all the info and music from my Mac iTunes library and put only my music from my iPhone into a new fresh iTunes library.

    Hello Carrie,
    I definitely understand wanting to clean up your iTunes library.  There are a few resources I recommend looking at.
    Firstly, if you wanted to continue with your existing library, you can identify duplicates in iTunes following these steps:
    Choose File > Display Duplicates to show duplicate items (matches are based on the song name and artist). If you have multiple versions of the same song (for example, live and studio versions, or versions from different albums) you can hold the Alt or Option key (for Mac OS X) or the Shift key (for Windows) and choose File > Display Exact Duplicates. This will show only duplicate songs having the same name, artist, and album.
    If you are using iTunes 11 (the latest version of iTunes at this time), you will need to go to View>Show Duplicate Items (you can hold Alt or Option here as well to get the Show Exact Duplicate Items option).  You can find the full article here:
    How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2905
    If you think the music you are missing in iTunes is located on your computer somewhere, I recommend reviewing this article:
    iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1408
    If neither of those help and you prefer to recreate your iTunes Library, I recommend review this next article.  This article outlines what media you are able to transfer from your iPhone to your computer:
    iTunes: Transferring media from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1209
    I recommend creating the new library and making sure it has everything you want in it before deleting your library that is disorganized.  This article outlines creating a new iTunes Library and how to switch between libraries:

  • How do i get my music from icloud to my itunes library

    how do i get my music from icloud to my itunes library

    Download it in iTunes from your purchased list, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.
    If the music is on your phone, another option is to authorize your computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music (in iTunes, Store>Authorize This Computer), then connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.

  • Transfering music from Nano to new iMac without old computer

    I recently had a hard drive fail on my old PC laptop and can't access my iTunes music for my Nano. Is there anyway you can download music onto the new iMac without having access to the old PC? I'm talking about music that's been loaded onto the Nano via CD (not iTunes Store) - Please help

    Hey there,
    There are several ways you can pull the music off your iPod and onto iTunes. The first link after the Apple support document below provides step-by-step instructions for the direct method if you have a PC as well as a few third party applications (for both the Mac and PC) if you choose to go that route instead. You can also do a simple google search for "copy music from iPod to computer" and you should receive a number of sites that can help you out.
    Just make sure that when you have your iPod plugged into your computer, that you don't hit "Erase and Sync" before completing the task of copying your music over.
    Also, if you have any purchased music, you will probably have to re-authorize your computer by heading to the Store drop down menu and choosing "Authorize computer."
