Transfer 3rd generation Nano from one computer to a new computer

My daughter got a new computer. Originally, her iPod was set up and registered on my computer. I'm trying to move her iPod registration and library from my computer to her new one. We have just installed iTunes on the new machine. You can see the songs on the iPod, but can't pull them from the iPod and put them on the new machine (they'er kind of greyed out). What should I do?

  • TRANSFER MY MUSIC LIBRARY FROM MY IPOD TO MY NEW COMPUTER

    MY COMPUTER WITH MY ITUNES LIBRARY CRASHED. I HAVE ABOUT 400 SONGS ON MY IPOD AND I WANT TO TRANSFER THE MUSIC FROM MY IPOD ONTO MY NEW COMPUTER. I CANNOT ACCESS THE LIBRARY ON THE OLD COMPUTER. PLEASE HELP

    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.
    For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    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.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), 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 can be messy.
    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.
    Another free program is Pod Player.
    SharePod is also freeware.

  • HT4527 How can I transfer my iTunes library from my iPad to my new computer?

    My hard drive crashed without recent backup and I would like to transfer my iTunes library from my iPad to the new hard drive. Some tunes transferred and some didn't. Thanks.

    Non-iTunes purchases cannot be transferred from an iDevice to computer via iTunes.
    The simplest solution is to simply move the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.  Why anyone would choose to make life more difficult by screwing around with transferring purchases from an iDevice and using 3rd party software to extract non-iTunes purchases is beyond me. 
    IF for some reason there is no backup of the old computer and/or the old computer is no longer accessible, then try google for solutions.
    Do yourself a favor going forward, backup your media and other important data.

  • How do you transfer a single playlist from one mac to a new macbook?

    I've just bought a new Mac Pro and would like to transfer a single playlist of mine from an iMac iTunes library to my own iTunes library without any of the other music in the library that is not on my playlist... any help?

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload. Sign in and authorize the computer to your account before syncing.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data. If you don't have any Apple devices then see HT2519 - Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.

  • How to transfer my iTunes library from a hard disc to new computer?

    Could anybody help me with this issue? I've tried everything I could without any succes...
    My computer where I had my iTunes library (complete with many info and ratings) crashed and I lost all my archives. Luckly I had a copy of everything in an external hard disc. My iPod works fine with all the songs from that library. I bought a new computer, but now I cannot transfer the data of the library from the hard disc to the new computer.
    I'd really appreciate if somebody could help me...
    Many thanks, Rui

    Great! Very simple actually (once you know). The library is now corrected listed on iTunes, with my original playlists and the ratings.
    But now how do I bring the music files? I've tried to import them from the hard disk, but iTunes didn't synchronize with the ones listed on the library, so there are duplicates of all songs and the ones I can play are not the ones on my playlists and with the ratings.
    Do you have another brilliant solution?
    Thanks in advance

  • HT4527 My home computer with my iTunes library has crashed. How can I transfer all my music from my iPhone to my new computer

    My home computer which has my iTunes library on it how can I transfer all of my music from my iPhone to my new computer

    The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases.
    It has always been very basic to always maintan a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.  Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything back.

  • Had to get a new computer, how do I transfer all my data from the iphone to the new computer?

    Had to buy a new computer, how do I transfer all data from my iphone4 to new computer?

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - To transfer other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up.
    - Restore the iPod from that backup

  • My old computer crashed, i have a new computer, is there anyway to transfer the itunes library from my iphone to my new computer?

    Help! My old computer crashed, and I have a bunch of music that I don't have on cd any longer, is there anyway to move the library I have on my iPhone now to my new computer I just bought?

    Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
    You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer

    As for you own music and contents, you may have to use a third party software to copy over. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

  • My old PC died but hard drive is still functional. Purchased new PC and downloaded latest iTunes but attempts to transfer folder with songs from old hard disk to new computer failed. Only 20 of approx 300 songs transferred ??

    My old PC died but the hard drive is still functional and accessible using a USB extraction device. I purchased a new PC and downloaded the latest iTunes but attempts to transfer the iTunes folder with songs from the old hard drive to my new computer failed. Only 20 of approx 300 songs transferred. All other non music file transfers (WORD, EXCEL, etc) from the old hard drive to the new computer were successful. Is this a file type issue? Any thoughts??  THANKS!

  • How do I transfer my music library from my IPOD to my new computer.  My old computer is no longer working.

    I'm trying to transfer my library to a new computer because my old computer no longer works.  I've gone through all the steps apple recommended but the ITUNES file is not recognized on my IPOD on the new computer. 

    Connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (if you have iTunes 11 then you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S), and then use the Music tab on the right-hand side to select which of your music to sync to the iPad's Music app
