How do I retrieve my music from my Ipod Nano (4th gen) to my new PC - thought I had a backup copy but alas!

I have tried exporting from my ipod to my PC itunes music file and also to a flashdrive but have had no success. Hope someone else has tried this on a 4 gen ipod nano.

Using a Windows formatted iPod Nano (4th Gen) with Bootcamp on a Mac(Win XP

Hey I was wondering if anyone knows if you can use a previously formatted iPod Nano (4th Gen) with a Mac that has XP Bootcamped on to it. If the Nano is placed in manually manage music with the original computer it was formatted with, will it be able to accept music, movies, podcasts, etc from the windows on the Mac or will they still be incompatible?

Well, I have 4 internal drive bays filled already, is there room somewhere for 5th one in the box? I wasn't aware of it if there is?? My mac is MacPro3,1, early 2008.
That macsales.com link is interesting but I'm not in the US (I'm in Croatia), and all those brands are supidly expensive here, that $80 esata docking station is almost $200 here... bahh. For that price I may as well buy a whole new 3TB external disk, I want to dock the old one to save money.
I've browsed around and I've found Icy Box docks, which have much more reasonable prices:
BOX IB-110StUS2-B
ICY BOX IB-111StUS2-Wh
ICY BOX IB-115StUS2HC
They all claim to have OSX support... anyone have any experience with them?

You can only sync with one iTunes library/computer. To switch:

Itunes won't sync any of my music to my Ipod Nano (4th gen)

I tried to add more music onto my ipod and itunes froze and it didn't work. After it unfroze I tried to sync it again, nothing happened. I thought maybe if I reset my ipod it would help. NOPE! Now I have no music on my ipod and even if I click on the sync button nothing happens. Itunes recognizes that I have my ipod plugged in but it won't do anything else. I even tried uninstalling itunes and then re-installing it but nothing happened after that.

Hey Tipa1,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are having an issue with iTunes due to permissions. The following article is related to the symptoms you described:

HT2305 I have a new computer with Windows 8 OS. Do I need to install drivers so that my Ipod Nano will sync with this new computer:

My daughter gave me a new Ipod (Nano) for Christmas. I had no problem download my songs from my old Ipod (Shuffle) to the new one. However - since I do not buy songs on a regular basis, I did not buy a new song until 4/29/13. Now for information...sometime in March my old laptop died, completely. I had to go buy a new one - which I did and this new one has Windows 8 Operating System on it (which I hate, btw).
Now, when I bout a song on Tuesday, the song did not go to my new Ipod. I tried everything and finally had to talk to a tech - who was very kind in helping me and we did get all my songs from Itunes to this new computer. I thought the song I bought would then go on the Ipod - but it did not. I had already hung up from the tech - since we had been talking on the phone for about an hour. He informed me that he was giving me a "courtesy break" because it has been over 90 days since my new Ipod was purchased ---- just my darn luck!
Anyway, I have figured out on my own that the new Ipod Nano is not synced with the new laptop with Windows 8. I have been trying for the last 2 hours to get it to do so and in doing so, found out that Windows 8 is not mentioned in any of the help forums. So...my question is: Do I need to install drivers on the computer or what? I will not be purchasing anymore music from Itunes until I get this matter resolved. Any help will be apreciated. Thank you.

From my limited knowledge the iPod Nano has no support for iCloud or wireless transfers- therefore the only means of downloading songs is by hooking it up to the computer by the white cable.

HT3310 i have a problem with the headset of my ipod nano 4th gen. the right side don't have a sound. It comes in and out. what do I need to do?.. I am using the original headset eversince. I took it to an Apple Mac Center I was told they can't do anythin

I have a problem with the headset of my ipod nano 4th gen. the right side don't have a sound. It comes in and out. what do I need to do.. I am using the original headset eversince. I tool it to a Apple Mac Cennter and Taked with a Service Center Rep. And he told me that they can't do anything because they don't repair the ipod they didn;t even look at it. I was told instead to buy a new one. I was very disappointed.. This is already my 5th ipod though i am planning to buy a new one.. I still want it fixed so I can give it to my little sister

From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

If the iPod is the only place that you have the music (e.g. you don't have it on a backup drive) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy it back from it : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
You can then add it to your computer's iTunes library via File > Add To Library

Itunes won't recognize my ipod nano 4th gen (or any other ipod) as a device

i've had my ipod nano 4th gen for as long as 4th gen's have been around. never had a problem with it or itunes. until now. all of a sudden, when i plug my ipod in to sync the new music purchased, itunes doesn't even recognize my ipod. "devices" never even comes up. "sync ipod" under file isn't highlighted. my ipod only shows as charging. since this problem occurred, i've tried my husband's ipod and it isn't recognized. i've used numerous cords in both USB ports. i've uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. nothing is working! any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Dropped Ipod nano 4th gen

ok last night I dropped my Ipod nano 4th gen without a case on my tile floor. It was about a 3-4 feet drop.
So today I was running and than after a couple mins of running with the song still playing my ipod buttons froze, nothing worked the screen remained black but the music still played. than after a few seconds trying to make the screen show back up my whole volume limit raised up maxed with a weird twisted sound to it. also, every now and than my songs would pause than play again without me doing anything to it.
I also was running in cold weather, is that the case?
Could of me dropping my ipod caused this to happen?
or can dropping my ipod cause any problems at all?
thanks

My ipod nano 4th gen was submerged in water.

My ipod nano 4th gen was submerged in water. After it dried inside, i tried to turn it on but doesnt work, showing the blank screen. I plugged it in, held the menu button and it made 2 beeps then stopped.I could still connect it to the computer and access its content . What is the problem with it? And would apple to be able to repair it at what price approx?
Thx in advance

The damage is not covered by the Apple warranty. An out-of-warranty Nano repair is about $80 (plus tax). Before you send it in for repair, be sure that you have the music backed-up.
