New Computer! Trying To Transfer Music already on my iPod to my new iTunes

I just bought a new computer and just installed iTunes. I have about a hundred songs already on my iPod and I want to get them on my new iTunes. right now it wants to clear my ipod which I dont want to do. How can i manually put the songs that are on my ipod on my itunes?

It is very simple. Just take a USB flash drive and plug it into your usb port. Then just copy paste all of your songs into it from your old comp. and stick the USB in your new comp. Copy the files onto your desktop and then go to your new iTunes click FILE, ADD FOLDER, and find the folder from your desktop on your new comp. very simple.

    There is no way to transfer ipod-to-ipod. Look for a 3rd party program, such as Yamipod, that will let you pull the music from your old iPod to your computer.
    You really should be backing up your data on your computer.

  • Is it possible to transfer music between iPhones and iPods with out using iTunes

    Is it possible to transfer music between iPhones and iPods with out using iTunes

    Nope.  Both require iTunes on a computer to sync music from.
    Unless the iPod is an iPod Touch and the music was bought from iTunes.  In which case the Touch can simply go to the iTunes App, under Purchased  and download the purchased songs for free.

  • Trying to transfer music and vids(30g)ipod to new computer? Somebody help

    just recently got new computer, I have a 30g ipod,I'm trying to transfer songs from Ipod to new computer without erasing anything. Have about 1900 songs, half is from Itunes and the other half is from CD'S. Very fearful of erasing everything, someone help me out me.

    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) try 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.
    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.

  • New computer, trying to transfer music from my ipod onto this computer...

    Hi there, I can't seem to figure this out. I used to have a Powerbook, but it was stolen when my house was broken into. I just bought a new computer, and I have all my music on my ipod. Is there any way I can transfer this music to my new MacBook? Please say there is, I can't bear the loss of all my music.

    i'm having the same problem. my old powerbook died, which was what i synced the ipod with. when i try to sync it on my new macbook, it says it can only be synched with one itunes account. i need to get a lecture off the ipod which is a .wav file. will ipoddisk work with that? also, is there anyway to switch the account to my macbook itunes so that i don't have to keep doing this? thanks a bunch!

  • 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)

  • I'm trying to transfer music from iTunes on an old PC that uses an external storage device to a new PC (Windows 7) that will use that same external storage device.  I am also dealing with new iTunes 11.  How do I do this??  What folder does iTunes use?

    I'm trying to transfer music from iTunes on an old PC (Windows Vista Home Basic) that uses an external storage device to store the files to a new PC (Windows 7 Starter) that will use that same external storage device.  I am also dealing with the new iTunes 11.  How can I accomplish this successfully?    What folder does iTunes use to store the data in?  I've tried several things.  Home Sharing caused duplicates but not all songs or apps transfered.  It is a large library! I've tried just setting the path in the Advanced Tab of iTunes preferences of the new computer with the external drive connected the same as the path when the external drive is connected to the old computer.  This was the best solution so far but still a few artists missing and some apps. Any suggestions?

    Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
    With iTunes 11 you might also have a Home Videos folder inside iTunes Media.
    In the simplest cases you copy the entire iTunes folder from <User's Music> on the source computer to <User's Music> on the target machine, install iTunes, and it "just works"TM.
    If the media folder (inside the red outline) has been split out to a separate location then you can copy the library folder (outside the red outline) as before and connect the drive holding the media so that it has exactly the same path as before. If the drive appears as D: on one system and E: on the other then the library won't be able to find the media.
    The crucial file is iTunes Library.itl - this contains a record of the tracks that have been added to the library, ratings, play counts, playlists etc.

  • TS2972 Why is the "Import" button grey when I'm trying to transfer music from one computer to another?

    Why is the "Import" button grey when I'm trying to transfer music from one computer to another using Home Sharing?

    Hi lexipuppy,
    I dont know if you have your music on your other computer was on itunes, but if it was, make sure that you signed into your itunes account on your other computer. If you are signed in then your music should show up in your library.

  • Im trying to transfer music from my computer itunes to my iphone

    Im trying to transfer music from my computer itunes to my iphone and ipod touch. i enabled home sharing but still cant figure it out.

    Homesharing has nothing to do with syncing content to devices.
    Connect the device to the computer.
    Select the content desired to sync.
    Then sync.
    This is covered in the User's Guide, might be a good idea to read it.

  • How do i transfer music from my old ipod, thats not authorized on my laptop, to my new ipod?

    how do i transfer music from my old ipod, thats not authorized on my laptop, to my new ipod?

    if you bought from Apple see this
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    if from 3rd party you have to put songs on computer and sync from itunes.  Apple doesnt support syncing from ios to itunes so you will have to already have the songs on pc.
    Peace, Clyde

  • Trying to transfer music from itunes library to device and getting song not located

    I,m trying to transfer music from my itunes library to device and I got exclamation point next to song saying it cannot be located. Why is this happening and how can I fix it?

    Did it work before and stop after updatings iTunes on the computer?
    Try
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or               
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    New cable and different USB port?
    Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause
