Transfer songs from shuffle to mac (or PC)

Hello,
I have an iPod shuffle that I had syncing with an old computer that has since been sold. None of the songs were purchased from iTunes, all ripped from CDs I can no longer find. I was wondering if it is possible to take the songs off of the shuffle and save them on my new Macbook Pro?
I know this is possible with a regular iPod using PodUtil and the like, but I haven't been able to find one that supports the shuffle. The closest was PodAmp which detected the shuffle, but did not seem to work when I wanted to pull songs off it.
When I plug the ipod into my mac, itunes says that it is associated with another computer and that it has to delete everything to start over.. I don't mind doing this, but only AFTER I get the music off of it
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!! Thanks so much in advance!
P.S: I should add that if for some strange reason this can not be done on a mac.. I do have a PC I can use as well.

There's a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to your Mac at this link which you could try. I don't know if this works with Shuffles as well but it's worth having a look at: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod

    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases from the phone to your Mac's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. For music purchased from other sites and/or copied from other sites, then if you haven't got a copy of them on a backup then you will need to find a third-party program that can copy them off the phone.

    How to transfer songs from a ipod/itouch to a mac computer?

    You sync your tunes, right? Those tunes are stored in your iTunes Library.
    Or maybe I'm understanding question completely. How did you migrate your tunes in the first place?

  • Trying to transfer songs from PC to Mac using home sharing.

    I just bought a new Mac and am trying to get my songs from the PC to the Mac. I managed to transfer the songs using Home Sharing, but, when I tried to add the songs to my Library in iTunes, any songs that were not purchased on iTunes (burned from a CD, etc) are greyed out, will not play, will not delete. What gives? Is Apple trying to make me buy my entire library on iTunes?
    I'm trying to get these songs to my Mac so I can wipe the music on my iPhone (which was linked to my PC) and manage the music on my Mac. It doesn't seem I'm able to do that either. Does this have something to do with the PC.
    THANKS!

    When using home sharing you must use the same Apple ID on both machines. It does not mattter what apple id the machine uses to login to iTunes with.
    Then you can click on the orange house icon in Shared in the left sidebar of itunes. Select what to import and click import at the bottom right

  • Trying to transfer songs from ipod to mac

    I have an Ipod touch that is my bf's, his ex was the primary user and the account info is all her. I do not have itunes password. We don't care about apps, and i would like to reset with his info, but there are over 1,200 songs and most are not itunes purchases. How can i get them off the ipod and onto my mac? when i try and transfer it tells me my computer isn't authorized to her account and i can not transfer only 76 items and that is fine, but when i hit cancel it ends transfer.
    thanks

    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.
    The ONLY exception is itunes purchases.
    If this music belongs to his ex, then it is not yours at all and it would be illegal to take the music from it.

  • Transfer Songs From PC to Mac One Playlist Only

    I have a desktop PC, an iPad, and several Android devices.  I have too many songs on my PC in iTunes to transfer to the other devices so I created playlists for each device and include only songs that will fit their various storage capacities.  I use iTunes to sync the iPad and a third party program for the Android devices.
    I just bought a MacBook Air and I love it but have yet to find a way to transfer (and hopefully sync) a subset of my iTunes library.
    Is there any way to do that without buying a relatively expensive third party sync solution?

    You can sync everything or selected playlists.

    Your topic line asks a very different question from the one in your post.  To copy a single playlist drag the files to a flash drive, then drag them to an iTunes playlist on the other computer.

    You don't. Sync via iTunes to PC/Mac, then to other device.

    Connect the phone to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (on iTunes 11 on a PC you can enable the sidebar via control-S, on a Mac via option-command-S) and on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen select the Music tab and use that to select which of your computer's iTunes music to sync to your phone's Music app.

  • How can I transfer songs from two different itunes?

    I want to transfer songs from my brother's itunes library to my shuffle, but when I plug it in his computer, a message saying that his library is not linked to my library (or something to that extent) and whether I would like to replace the songs. If I click yes, all my existing songs are replaced with HIS songs. If I click on NO, the Shuffle icon does not appear at all and I cannot transfer any of his songs to my shuffle. How can I transfer songs from two different computers into my shuffle without replacing any of my existing music?

    You'll have to setup your iPod to manual instead of automatic update (I'm not sure, though, if it works with the Shuffle as well).

  • How to transfer songs from ipod to library

    I am trying to transfer songs from my old ipod to my library and get them on a new ipod. How do I do this? I am so confused

    If you only want to copy your purchases to the computer that can be done using iTunes, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    For everything else (including purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
