Transfer songs from old ipod to new ipod

is it possible to transfer songs from my old ipod to my new one?? any thoughts???

Is what is on your old iPod on your computer? If so then simply connect the new iPod and sync the same library onto it.
If the stuff on the old iPod is NOT on your computer, first step is to move it from the old iPod to the computer...

  • How can I transfer music from old mini to new iPod nano?

    I was buying a MacBook laptop for school next year, and also got a new nano nearly free! So, I currently have a PC which I use for my iPod mini, but I want to put my music library into the Mac and the nano. How can I do this?
    The PC "sent" songs into the nano but they were gray and not playable. I really just want to move the whole library to the Mac. Please help!
    Thanks.

    You can set up a network to transfer your files also you can use programmes to copy form your iPod to Mac click the link

  • How to transfer songs from old MP3 player to Ipod

    I have just upgraded to a 30gig Ipod Video. I had a Sony Walkman MP3 player before. I have got a couple of hundred songs on that MP3 player that I want to put on my Ipod. When I plug my old MP3 player into the computer and open Itunes, the songs come up in the Connect Player format (Connect Player is the Sony Walkman software). When I try to add them to Itunes it doesnt do anything or come up with any error message. I know they are the wrong format, how do I change them into a format that will go into Itunes.

    You need software that will convert the songs to iPod form. You can just google the phrase "iPod Music Converter". And if you cant find anything change the phrase around a little bit.

  • Need to transfer songs from old computer to new one..??

    I have a laptop that I was using while my main computer was in the shop for repair. In that time I got an Ipod 30 Gig. I connected it to the laptop and downloaded quite a few songs. After I got my main 'puter back, I installed all the relevent software and so on for the Ipod. I downloaded some new songs and videos to this computer, but it will not go on to my Ipod. I plug in and it asks if I want to overwrite my old library? Well heck no! I want to merge them..so to speak. Well, I let it overwrite but it didn't put any new songs or video on it. Said I was using another library at this time. !!! This is getting very aggrevating. Does anyone know how to get all my songs/video's on one computer and all of them on the Ipod as well???

    The iPods will not auto sync betten mulitiple computers. You will have to set it to sync manually. Search for iPod multiple computers there are lots of posts telling you how to do this.

  • I just updated my software to maverick and my iTunes to the most recent version and i can no longer transfer songs from my iTunes to my iPod

    i just updated my software to maverick and my iTunes to the most recent version and i can no longer transfer songs from my iTunes to my iPod. The tracks stay gray with a stagnant circle beside them in the left column. Any ideas?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings                 
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • How can i transfer everything from old iphone4s to new iphone5?

    just bought new iphone5, how do i transfer all the apps/contacts/etc from olf iphone4s?

    The easiest way is to back up old phone to icloud and then restore new phone from that old phone backup. Any purchased content such as apps and songs from the itunes and apps stores can be downloaded again.
    These directions are for an ipad, but the method is the same.

  • TS2972 can I use home sharing to transfer iTunes from old computer to new computer?

    can I use home sharing to transfer iTunes from old computer to new computer?

    You are trying to use home sharing, you are logged into the same account for sharing on both computers (and they are connected to the same wifi network), and what happens when you try to copy your library ? Can you update your iTunes so that they are the same on both ?

  • How do you transfer contents from old ipad to new?

    How do you transfer contents from old iPad to new?

    Caesar1948-
    I'm not using iCloud, so do not know for sure.  I feel as if I have more control by using iTunes on my computer, to determine what is on my iPad, and what gets deleted.
    If your wife will share the same Apple ID with you, you do not need to remove everything from the old iPad.  She can share your purchased Apps, music, et cetera.
    In iTunes, you can have several iOS devices sharing Apps under a common Apple ID, but you can also "uncheck" specific Apps you do not want on one of your devices.  Each device has an identity so iTunes should remember which App goes on which device during future syncs.
    If your wife will have her own individual Apple ID, you need to go to Settings-General-Reset-Erase All Content and Settings.  This will return the iPad to factory defaults, except it will retain the latest iOS version installed.

  • For windows users,  best way to transfer photos from old iphone to new iphone

    I have a friend who just purchased new iphone and she'd like to transfer photos from old iphone to new iphone.
    What is the best steps for her to take?
    She has a Windows machine.
    thanks in advance!!!

    Make sure iTunes is loaded on the PC
    If all she wants are photos, she has to have the photos on her PC, not just on the old phone.  The old iPhone backup doesn't save the actual photos, just the setting pointing to where the photos came from.
    If the photos are on her PC, your should be able to sync them to the new iPhone with the Photos tab in iTunes (after the new phone is plugged in).
    If the photos aren't on her computer, she can copy them from whatever computer has them (assuming she has access to it).

  • HT201317 who to transfer photos from old iphone to new iphone5

    who to transfer photos from old iphone to new iphone5 with out the Itunes Backup

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    It would be far simpler if you did it through iTunes, however it can be done otherwise.
    You need to add all your old photos to your photo stream, which will then sync them to Photo stream on your new device, you can then move them from your photo stream album to your camera roll.
