Transfer iPod info to another iPod and computer

I have an original iPod 40 gig with my library on a removable drive. I bought my daughter a 4 gig iPod.
She wants to transfer all my songs and data to her iPod and her personal computer.
Can anyone help?

IPod is recognized by iTunes and computer, but wil not sync songs

iPod is recognized by iTunes and computer, but wil not sync songs. I have about 1400 songs and just got 40 more, and before I bought those 40 my iTunes was wiped out. I still had the files so my iTunes was filled up again. Now, when I connect my iPod to the computer it is recognized and then it says "do not disconnect" then after a few seconds it says "ipod update is complete- ok to disconnect". but it did not upload any songs. How can I make it work?

If your iPod shows up in Explorer under 'my computer' try changing the drive letter:
-- Click on Start=>Control Panel=>Admin Tools=>Computer Management=>Disk Management
-- Right-Click on the iPod and select “change drive letter”
-- Choose something further along in the alphabet that is unused (Usually, “M”, “N”, “O” or something similar)
-- Safely eject the iPod
-- Reboot the PC
Then restore your iPod to factory settings.

How do i copy Ipod classic songs to new computer when it says "Ipod synced with another library" and cannot find that library

Have a new PC and have a classic Ipod with about 6000 songs and had my itunes on an external HD a Maxtor One Touch II. Make a long story short the songs are not in the external HD no more songs. also looking in the C drive of the computer \My Music\itunes does not have the songs. Have checked hidden files so that I can see all the files. To make matters worse the I-tunes program on the external Maxtor was corrupted and the only way to fix it was to download a new itunes. So I wanted to repopulate the library but it appears I am not able to. Can anyone explain to me how I can copy my songs from the Ipod classic back to the library in the external HD?

I have about 6000 songs on my itunes library and i've filtered it down to 4500 on my ipod (so far) that I like and really listen to. I don't really want to go through all of that again...

How do I transfer music form one Ipod classic to another?

Music cannot be transferred from iPod directly to another. You'll need to make sure the music on the iPod is in your iTunes library first. Once you have done that (if it even needs to be done) go ahead and sync it to the 2nd iPod.

I've had my 120GB iPod since Christmas and it just happened to me now. I put it into my friend's iPod dock because she was complaining it wasn't working, and I wanted to see if it would work for other iPods. My iPod showed the charging screen, then promptly shut off.
Hope this problem gets fixed or recognized soon, I don't want to have to switch to CDs in my car again!

Is it possible to copy an ipod touch to another ipod touch

My daughter's ipod touch (16gb) has broken - only plays out from one channel and can't be repaired. I have given her my ipod and wiped off the music from it. But is there an easy way to get the music, apps and videos on her ipod onto my ipod - or do I have to do this manually? I have no idea where half the stuff is - but presumably it is on my main computer. Ideally I would like to re-designate my ipod as her ipod and then let the computer transfer what was on her ipod onto the new one. Is this possible?

I presume it's in iTunes. iTunes is the only way to load content on an iPod touch unless your daughter purchased something from the iTunes Store directly from her iPod. So unless it was removed from iTunes after the content was copied to the iPod, the content should all be there. If you have multiple user accounts in Mac OS X, the content may be in the iTunes library in your daughter's user account, if she has her own account on your computer.

Not as such, no. You cannot copy directly from one iPod to another. But when you connect a new iPod to your computer, it will sync with iTunes just as the original one did. Presuming that iTunes has all the content, it will then put it all on the new iPod.

Transferring music from an ipod classic to another ipod using itunes

help! im not technical minded so please be gentle!
I have an ipod classic which I need to transfer all the music content to another ipod which I bought second hand. I cant seem to establish how to do this - im trying to drag them to a playlist in my iTunes but its not having it- then I wanted to connect the new ipod and just drag them across but it doesn't seem to be as easy as that. I don't want my entire music library on the new ipod - I just want the songs I have on my old ipod classic.
Please can someone help. im so not technical minded and its very mind boggling.
would appreciate any help many thanks

You cannot transfer directly from one device to another. Pull all of the content into your library then sync what you want to each device. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

If You Broke Your Ipod And Replaced It With A New One Can They Transfer All Of Your Old Apps Music And Other Things To Your New Ipod Touch And Also Can You Replace Your Ipod Touch With Another Ipod Touch With More GB(GigaBytes)

I Have An Ipod Touch 4G That Is 8GB(Gigabytes) And U Was Jus Wandering About These Two Questions 4 So Long Do I Posted A Question

You can buy whatever ipod you want.
Damage is not covered by warranty so they will not replace it under warranty.
All of your music/apps should be in itunes on your computer and included in your regular backup of your computer.
Just sync it to the new ipod.

IPod stuck at Apple screen and computer won't restore iPod

My 80gb Classic is stuck on the Apple screen, and doesn't respond at all. It says to restore my iPod using iTunes, however, iTunes doesn't recognize my iPod, even though I've updated it.
I've tried restarting my iPod, updating iTunes, and repeated attempts at connecting my iPod. None of the support articles really help, and I've tried all I can think of.

Try forcing the iPod into disk mode first, then connecting it to your computer and see if that makes it show up in iTunes...

Ipod shows folder w/ ! and computer wont recognize

sorry if this has been posted on before... I checked the first 5 pages and didn't see anything,
My ipod shows the folder and I followed all of the trouble ideas on the web site but none worked. Even in disk mode the computer did not recognize it. I have no access to my music and my ipod is making wierd sounds through the actual evice, not the head phones.
HELP!!! I have no idea what is wrong and the website has no information on this problem!
p.s. i went to an apple store for help and they told me to schedule an appointment online to bring it in to the store...i have looked for hours and cant find a way to do this. i think they were lying to me.

Chelsea,
Try the steps here.
Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod
However, from what you describe, it sounds like the iPod requires service.

Btw, just a friendly heads up. You may want to change the wording of your computer profile before the Mods see it.

IPod Shuffle disappeared from iTunes and computer

I did a silly thing...while charging, my ipod shuffle the charging light was blinking. Booklet said that it meant it was using it as an external data storage disc. It asked if I wanted it to, I said no. Now it has disappeared from my iTunes and from my Computer. I've reset it. Don't want to restore it and lose my songs on it (it says to backup first, but how can I when I can't find it on my computer?). I'm thinking to reinstall itunes program. Important Question, if I do that, will I lose all the songs in my itunes library? I've checked all my USB hubs in Device Manger, they all appear to be working, yet none show ipod. Help please and thanks! Denise

what file do you mean? My entire library is still there and working on iTunes. My iPod still has all it's songs and still plays on its own. itunes program just doesn't show that ipod is connected to it. Anyone else know? Thanks, D.
