Transfer music and photos back to my computer

I had a virus and resulted in my having to change my hard disk.
I did not have back up of my photos or music, which they are safe on my Ipod photo.
Now my computer is fully repaired and have downlowded my software for i-pod again, obviusly is empty.
How can i download my music and photos back on to my computer with its new hard disk?
If i get it wrong, I loose everything!
Thanks and regards
jg

You won't be able to, just by navigating out the iPod's photos folder in iTunes. You'll likely need the help of some sort of third party software to get the job done for you.  One thing you'll want to keep in mind about these photos is that they are no longer in their full resolution, but instead are scaled down thumbnail versions that were optimized for viewing on your iPod's Video smaller 2.5" LCD display.
Here is one such product.

  • Unable to transfer music and photos from iphone to computer

    I just got a new computer because my old one was damaged and the hard drive dead also. All my music and photos are on my iphone but when i tried transferring them over to my new computer, it does not transfer all my music and photos over. Any idea what to do?

    Hello theopeningeye,
    It is not possible to transfer Music, Songs, Playlist etc.. from your iPhone to your computer via iTunes, you will have to find a 3rd party software.

  • How do I transfer music and photos from my iPhone 4s to my iPad

    HHow do I transfer music and photos from my iPhone 4s to my ipad

    You cannot directly transfer anything from an iPhone to an iPad. If your iPad is signed onto the same Apple ID as your iPhone in Settings>iTunes & App Store, then it has access to the same Music library as your phone. Click on the More tab in the iTunes App on your iPad, and then on Purchased, Not on this iPad to see all of the music available to download to the iPad. You can also set the "Automatic Downloads" option to ON in Settings>iTunes & App Store and going forward, any music you purchase on the iPhone or via iTunes on a computer will automatically download to your iPad. Set the same setting on the iPhone to have it do the same.
    As for photos. If both the iPhone and iPad are signed onto the same iCloud ID in Settings>iCloud, then turn on Photo Stream on both the iPad and iPhone to share Photo Stream photos between the two devices. Photos on your Camera Roll that are no longer on Photo Stream, or photos in other Photo Albums would have to be sync'd to the iPad via iTunes on the computer you sync with (assuming you have imported your photos to that computer).

  • How to transfer music and photos to a new pc from ipad

    hi everyone,
    i just got a new laptop from my office.my itunes libraray was earlier in personal laptop,but i want to have it in offcial too. i transfred apps to new itunes on new lappy via my iphone & ipad by transfer purchases. but its music and photo is not transfered. how to transfer it , plz guide..
    thnx

    Music purchased from iTunes should have copied over via Transfer Purchases. For music from other sources (e.g. CDs) you will either need to use your backup or find a third-party program for your computer that can copy them off your iPad and iPhone.
    To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page -  on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard, on a Mac Aperture, iPhoto or Image Capture
    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to an iPad or iPhone, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

    how to transfer music and pictures from iphone to computer

    If the music was purchased from iTunes then you should be able to copy them over to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases if you have iTunes 11 on your computer). If the music came from other sources and you don't have a copy of them anywhere else, then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which might be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • Can I transfer music and photos from my 17" PowerBook G4 to a new MacBook Pro?

    I am planning to buy a new MacBook Pro in the next couple of weeks. Can I have the "Genius" at the Apple Store transfer my music and pictures from my current PowerBook to the new computer? My current computer is a 17" PowerBook G4, running OS X 10.5.8. Because of the age of my computer and software limitations I have been unable to use iCloud for anything besides my calendar and contacts.

    Yes, flash drive would work fine.
    If all you care about is music and photos, as you indicated earlier, then you simply need to copy the entire contents of your Music and Pictures folders from the old computer into the Music and Pictures folders on the new computer. A flash drive will work fine as long as it is big enough. If you want to also move over personal files, typically those are in your Documents folder and possibly your Desktop, so don't forgot about those.
    If you want to migrate over all your emails, applications, internet and router settings, web browser favorites, bookmarks, preferences, user names and accounts, etc., then you might consider doing the full migration using Setup Assistant upon the very first boot up. Apple will do this for you, for a fee, as will almost any Apple-authorized computer store (also for a fee, but probably for a bit less than Apple would charge). You can actually do this manually, using the external drive or flash drive, and I have done that myself. But you need to know where the files are to do that properly. The Setup Assistant (which is run upon the very first boot up of the new computer) or Migration Assistant (which is run after you have booted into your new computer at least once) make it pretty easy -- the main thing you need to do is hook the computers up with a firewire cable and follow Apple's instructions; or if that is not possible, the next best thing is to make a complete backup of your old computer onto an external drive using Time Machine (or a cloning program like SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner) and migrate from the backup.

  • I have used a Seagate external hard drive for my Mac desktop. It is malfunctioning. Can I disconnect and depend on iCloud to keep my documents, music, and photos backed up safe and secure? I use the Cloud for phone, pad and desktop.

    Can I expect iCloud to safely back up and secure my documents, music and pictures? I am using Cloud on phone, pad, and desktop. Have depended on external hard drive in the past. It is malfunctioning. Will the Cloud replace it for storage and safety?

    Time Machine in itself, without an external drive may well be good for instances where you accidentally delete documents that you later require. However in the event of a hard drive failure, if Time Machine backup is kept on the same drive as the original items, it will not be much use to you.
    In my opinion, it is vitally important that you have an external drive for backup, whether you use Time Machine or a another backup solution is entirely up to you.
    My situation is slightly unusual, I have four hard drives in my computer and multiple arrays of hard drive enclosures with multiple hard drives within them (in total I have 40 TB of storage). As a result of this I tend to employ more than one backup procedure, I use Time Machine to backup some items and a utility called tri-backup to backup other items. I also keep two backups of everything.
    Time Machine is free, it's included with your operating system, I wonder if you mean time capsule.

  • New iPad no computer...transfer music and photos

    My mom has a new iPad2...it will not be connected to a computer.  How can I transfer some photos and music onto it.  I have the camera transfer kit.  I was hoping to do it with a usb drive or memory card...so far no luck. 

    Syncing with new computer
    This is an extract from one of our senior participant; hope he doesn't mind me reproducing it here
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.

  • How to transfer music and photos from old iCloud to new iCloud

    I have to make a new iCloud but I don't want to lose all my photos and music that I have bought. How can I transfer those things from my old iCloud to my new one?

    Music can only be used with the Appel ID that has been used to buy the songs. They can be downloaded again for free:
    Download past purchases - Apple Support
    You can transfer the photos on your phone to your computer:

  • How do I transfer music and photos from my Power Mac G5 to my new iMac. Have an old FireWire but it does not fit the new iMac

    I am trying to transfer photos, music, etc from my Power Mac G5 to my new iMac. The Power Mac is too old for the migration assistant to help. I have an old Firewire but it does not fit the new iMac. Any suggestions? If a Firewire is the best option which one do I need? Thanks.

    You need a Firewire 800 to 400 adapter or cable or a external USB 2/3 drive (self powered) it can default to the old USB the G5 uses 1 or 2.

  • Moving music and Photos back to my Mac

    Please forgive if this appears to be a rather simple question but my mac crashed and I had to reinstall OSX Tiger and now I have lost my Iphotos and Itunes libraries. They are both on my Ipod Nano and my screen is failing fast on my Nano so I have to send it in for servicing.
    Question is, how do I get my content back onto my Mac from my Nano?

    Mr_Spock:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You'd be best served by posting that question in the appropriate iPod forum. I don't use my iPod enough to help your and I'm sure there will be many more power users there regarding the iPods and retrieving photos and music.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • TS4036 I recently had to send my iphone off for repair and when it came back they had restored it t factory settings. Is there any way I can get my music and photos back from icloud ??

    I recently had to send my iphone off for repair and when I have got it back it has been reset to factory settings. Can I get my phonos,music etc back through icoulds ?

    If your backup is incomplete you won't be able to use it.  Do you have any backups on your computer?  (You can check by opening iTunes and going to iTunes>Preferences>Devices (Edit>Preferences>Devices on a PC).  That will list any available backups on your computer.

  • My external hard drive quit on me. Is there a way to get my content(pics, music and videos) back onto my computer- This is the pc and iTunes that I currently use with this iPod Classic 160gig. I don't want to lose all my info. please help. Thanks.

    All my content is still on my iPod classic but my external HDD quit and is not accessible. I am wondering if I can put some of my content onto my PC(my iPod has more storage than my PC  hahaha pretty bad)  This is the PC  I used with iTunes with so I don't think licensing is an issue- But can I upload back to my PC without iTunes wiping clean my iPod because there is no more content on PC/HDD?  I know I may need to send my HDD away to to a Data Recovery Specialist. But if I can save a couple hundred bucks to couple thousand bucks I would prefer this method... mostly worried about photos- can't download these again. Next time I will buy a second back up.

    You'll need to get yourself a new drive big enough to hold all the data you are going to recover and then reading the tip B-rock has pointed you to. Read it carefully, it should guide you through the steps to recover as much as possible. You are wise to be worried, just plugging in the iPod and clicking sync isn't good enough but it should be possible to recover to most if not all of it.

  • How can i transfer music and photos from my ibook g4 to my new mac mini?

    the g4 has a firewire 400 and the mini is firewire 800.  IS there 400 to 800 firewire or a male-male usb2 cable out there?  I've tried moving files to my external drive and then moving to the mini but the photos move over as one event. The music moves fine but the 2 step process is slow and tedious.  Is there an easier way?

    Hello,
    Firewire cables with a Firewire 800 connector on one end and a Firewire 400 connector on the other end are common.  For instance, the Belkin 6'/1.8m FireWire 800/400 Cable.
