My computer crashed and I saved my songs to a folder. now that I have new comp with itunes how do I transfer the songs back into itunes while keeping the titles in tact? When they transferred back in only about half of them had the titles listed.

I want to transfer my songs from the old iTunes that I saved toi the new iTunes on my computer from a file I saved and keep the song titles in tact. how do I do this.?

It is probably not wise to leave your e-mail and phone number on a public forum.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
You purchase one download only.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod: File>Transfer Purchases

DaisyDoodle,
The songs on your Shuffle should still be in your iTunes library. That means you should just be able to connect your Nano to the same iTunes library and sync it just as you would with your Shuffle. There is no limit to the number of iPods, iPads, or iPhones you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or account.
As for preparing the Shuffle for your husband, just restore it via iTunes and then let him sync it to his own iTunes library or if its the same iTunes library, let him configure it to sync only his content.
Here are instructions on how to restore the Shuffle if need be.

I have an iPod Classic and the latest version of iTunes. I make all my purchases on my computer, but when I try to click the "add to" option and transfer the songs to my iPod, it doesn't work. How can I get my songs from my computer to my iPod?

Your i-device was not designed to be a reliable unique storage for your media. It is not a backup device and everything is structured around you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself backed up. Sync transfer is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer. If the computer has nothing on it, the device is set to match the computer's content -- nothing.The exception is purchased content.

For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software unless you have an older model iPod. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

I have an older Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer these songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available

I have an oder Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer ths songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available?

I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

I am trying to transfer the songs from my iPod touch to my computer and can not figure out how to do it. Please help me..

I am trying to transfer songs from my iPod touch to my computer and can not figure out how to do it. I also want to transfer the songs I have back in to iTunes. My hard drive went out on my computer and I lost all of my songs, except for on my iPod. I have an iPhone as well and did an update and it wiped out all of my songs. Someone please help me.

The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comptuer for just such an occasion. use your backup copy to put everything back.

How do I transfer a song purchased on my iPod touch to my MacBook Pro?

Hi. My iPod touch is synched with a windows desktop. I have authorised the MacBook Pro and purchased a song via the MacBook. I now cannot find how to transfer this song to my iPod though I'm sure I did do so in the past - quite a while ago though. Any ideas?

try this:
connect your device and right-click or control-click your iPod in the iTunes Source list, then choose +transfer purchases+ from the shortcut menu that appears.
