See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to copy content from your iPod to your PC.

Hi I have just upgraded my computer to Mac OSX 10.6.7 now I cant open my FCE 4. Message reads, Hardware missing -AGP Graphics card. How can I get my FCE 4 working on the new computer? Cheers
Thanks, just so I know we are talking about the same items please let me know - When you say "run Prokit" do you mean downloaded? Which I did. I dont have Prokit 4.0.1 if you are referring to that, do I need this first? Please explain what application name I am looking for if other than Prokit which is sitting in my "download folder" do I need to manually put it into the apps folder? Sorry if the questions are layman but this area is not a very strong point for me. Thanks for your help so far.

I have had bad luck with electronics lately my computer got lost to water and cant be fixed now my Ipod has been stolen I reported it to Apple but now I need to know when I get a new one how can I get back my music and games etc. if I can get it just with my account
What kind of iPod are you getting to replace it? If it is an iPod Touch, and you are in the US, after you set up the Touch you can use the iCloud beta and download your previous music, books and app purchases directly to your Touch.

I originally synced my iPOD to my PC in April 2011. I purchased a new computer but my iPOD will not sync to it because it is synced to the old PC. I do not want to erase my iPOD to sync with the new PC because I have loaded alot of music from CD's to it. HELP!
See this article how to transfer your data? How to back up your data and set up as a new device
Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.
Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
As mentioned by vazandrew, music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0 -

my old computer crashed. I bought a new one. I installed Itunes, with a new account. I cannot get my music from my ipod touch to the new computer. It is all music I had downloaded from cd's I have purchased through the years. Every time I try to authorize the new computer, it wants a credit card number for the ITunes store. I don't want to buy more music now, I just want to be able to get my songs in my new computer. This is driving me crazy. any help, since the phone support is not available when I am. Thanks.
The music sync is one wa - copmputer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comptuer. Use your backup to put everything back -
Hello
How can I transfer my songs off my old Ipod classic to the computer so that I can pick them up with my new Ipod 4. Also I want to transfere some songs to my spouses Ipod 5. Please let me know what I can do...
Thank you..
AlexandraYou can try the steps in that support article, but I doubt they'll help: you're trying to copy from an iPod Classic, to an iPod Touch. As far as I know, that can't be done using backup and restore. (But you can try—it wouldn't hurt.)
The question I have is, do you have the songs on your computer also? Or do you only have the songs on your iPod Classic? (Maybe from an old computer that crashed or something?)
If you have your songs on the computer, all you have to do is just set up your new iPod through iTunes on your computer and sync the songs from iTunes to your new iPod. You don't have to do anything with the old iPod Classic.

I just decomissioned my windows pc in favor of a new (to me) MacBook Pro. When I attempt to sync my iPad I get a warning that I will erase all content on the ipad in order to sync with the new computer. How do avoid erasing all the data on the iPad, and get the iPad and the new Mac/iTunes to be friends?
Best option is to use Windows Migration Assistant as Ralph noted.
Here's a better (updated) link to Windows Migration Assistant for Lion -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4796
Or if you only want iTunes (Migration Assistant let's you choose) copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from your PC to /Music/ on the Mac.
FYI: A MacBook is not a PowerBook. PowerBooks were discontinued in 2005. -
How can I get my ipod to sync on my new laptop?
I have downloaded the latest version of itunes on my new laptop and my ipod won't sync, it does not seem to be recognised by itunes tho' it is in my computer. I have reset the ipod but that hasn't worked. I have been advised to restore my ipod to its factory settings but this requires itunes to recognise me ipod?!?!?! Help?
Have you worked through each and every single suggestion offered in this Apple support document?

After downloading lion in the guest area on my imac, how do I enable it to have an affect on the other accounts?
You can only install software from the admin account, so you will need to transfer the Lion installer application to your admin account or re-download it when logged into the admin account.

My husband bought me a new Iphone today, but first backed up the old Iphone to Icloud. How do I download the old stuff. Have not been able to follow on-line directions. It's very frustrating. Give me my OLD PHONE BACK!!!
If you still have your old phone back it up via iTunes, then restore your new phone via the old phone's back up. Hope that makes sense.

Hi,
I had to change my PC because it stopped working suddenly. I had no time to recover iTunes. On my iPad, it is recorded the name of my old PC as syncronisation machine so it refuses to syncronize with the iTunes I installed on my new PC (windows 8).
Is there anyone who can help me?
Many thanks.Start here:

How can I get rid of songs listed as shadow/grey letters in my music that I have removed?
Songs that should have been removed is still there. This is music that's not in iCloud. It happend when I change Itunes to another PC. Some songs are even listed two times.
I was only able to get rid of this, on my iPhone 6+ running 8.0.2, after restoring my phone via iTunes. This was after spending 90 minutes with Apple support.

Itines was deleted from my computer and I need to re-install it but dont want to lose all my songs, apps etc. How can I get all this back onto itunes with no access to my old itunes??
Itunes was deleted? Or your itunes library was deleted?
If it was just itunes, then your music should still be there. Just reinstall itunes.
Otherwise just use your backup copy of your comuter to put everything back.
