Transferring songs from i-pod mini to computer

I need to transfer my song list from my i-pod mini to my new IBook. The only issue is that I do not have the old computer. Is this possible without the I-Tunes library folder from the old computer?

Jeff:
Thanks for the info, but I am a computer novice. How do I get my i-pod in disk mode? My i-pod mini is called Ann's I-Pod, and my user name is Ann & Tony or the quick name is anntony. Can you help me?

  • Transferring songs from an iPod Mini

    I have an iPod mini and used to have a PC. I recently bought a MacBook, and now have iTunes 8 on my MacBook. How do I transfer to the songs from my iPod mini and transfer them to my MacBook into iTunes?

    What about iTunes purchases that you buy on your computer, I can not transfer any of those songs onto my daughters iPod that she gave me since she got an iPhone for Christmas and no longer uses her iPod. We reset it and erased all the data and now it will only transfer one song. Sorry for getting in on this thread, no one responded to mine when I asked the question.
    Thanks,

  • Moving songs from i-pod mini to my i-tunes

    I have two minis, a shuffle and a new nano. Two adulst and two kids, all sharing one i-tunes account. I have a new computer, and have songs on one of the minis. I want to get the songs from the mini onto the i-tunes account. I can move songs from the library to any of the i-pods, but can't figure out how to move from the i-pod to the i-tunes

  • Hi. Transferring songs from i-Pod to Mac

    My old Windows PC recently crashed, taking with it the 3500 songs I had in i-tunes. Fortunately, I still have them on my i-pod Classic. However, am I right in thinking that there is no way of transferring them from my i-pod to my Mac without purchasing some software package, which I am reluctant to mess about with ?
    Any help gratefully received !

  • Transferring songs from ipod to itunes on computer

    I recently loaded songs from a CD onto my portable computer.
    I then transferred these to my ipod.
    I am unable to simply transfer these from my ipod onto my main computer.
    Suggestions?

    Because the computer to iPod transfer is, by design, one-way with the exception of being able to transfer your iTunes purchased content back to a computer off the iPod.
    If you want to be able to move songs from one computer to another, then you may want to "Enable disk mode" on your iPod, which will allow the Nano to be used as a standard external drive. Now drag the songs into that part of the iPod (the disk side, rather than the music player side via iTunes). Then on your other computer, you can drag them off the disk mode side of the Nano into your iTunes library there. Much like you would do with a normal external hard drive or USB flash drive.

  • Transferring songs from my iPod mini to my PS3

    How do I get all the song titles and info for the songs on my iPod mini to come up on my PS3? Can I download iTunes on my PS3? When I connected my iPod to the PS3 some song titles came up but the majority of them did not. A lot of other songs said unsupported data and I think those are the songs that I downloaded off iTunes. Thanks for help.

  • Transferring songs from my itune on my computer to my phone

    How do you transfer songs from your computer to your phone?

    U can do itune sync by wifi or plug ur iPhone into the computer then open iTunes. You will find on left hand side the name of ur iPhone or iPhone if u didn't name u click the name and there are general settings like do u want to sync only checked songs. Then u can go into music in those settings to pick what playlists etc. you can also pick groups there. I feel if you want little of everything then do the setting for sync what's checked because if u choose groups or albums it will be all songs. I don't want to hear everything all the time.

  • Transferring playlists from I-Pod to new computer

    Hello all,
    I'm pretty sure this question has been asked before : I recently purchased a new computer as my old one "died". I have all my music files in an external hard drive so they were preserved. When I downloaded I-tunes on my new computer, it did not transfer any of my playlists onto the new computer. They are still on my i-pod. How do I get them on my new computer from my i-pod? Thank you in advance for your help

    Everything will copy over just as it is on the iPod EXCEPT playlists. You will have to manually recreate these yourself.
    This column of [iPod Transfer Backup|http://www.softwarebbs.com/wiki/IPod_Transfer] share many articles about iPod to computer, included transfer iPod songs, photos and videos,playlist from iPod to computer.
    Hopefully this works for all of you like it just worked for me!

  • HT1349 Transferred songs from old iPod to new computer and now songs won't sync to my iPhone 5

    What should I do? To get them to sync to my phone?o

    What computer OS are you using? Do you have the latest version of iTunes (v11.1)? There has got to be a reason for the disconnect in the music syncing. I would recommend resetting the sync history. If you are in Windows, go to Edit, Preferences, Devices, and there is a button there. Now, with the phone connected to iTunes and the phone selected in the Device pane, you go to the Summary page and down towards the bottom of the page, there is a Reset Warnings box. After doing that, try to sync music again. If there is a problem, with the warnings reset, it should show up if there is one.

  • Transferring songs from Mini to new computer (old crashed)

    I have a new computer since my old one crashed, and I don't have any backup of my old songs. Is there any way to transfer the songs from my Ipod Mini to my new computer? I read that the transfer can only go from my computer to my Ipod unless I put the Ipod in disk mode, which I can't do, since I no longer have the Itunes my Ipod was connected to. I'm afraid if I hook the Ipod up to my new computer it will erase all my songs. HELP, please!

    No worry
    Download and install a 3rd party e.g. YamiPod and use it to copy the songs from your iPod to your new PC

  • Transferring songs from iPod to computer (new hard drive)

    My hard drive crashed and won't be able to backup all my music/songs that are not purchased from iTunes. How would I transfer all the songs from my iPod to my new hard drive (PC)? Is there any possibility?

    Be very careful when connecting an iPod full of music to an empty iTunes library.There is very real risk of permanently losing all the music.
    To prevent auto sync, before you connect the iPod go to the iTunes preferences and select "devices", then select "disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods".
    An alternative method is to connect the iPod whilst holding down the 'control+shift' keys and do not let them go until your iPod appears in iTunes.
    If you see a message that your iPod is associated with a different library and asks if you want to link to a new one, make sure you press "Cancel".
    If you should click on "Erase and Sync" will erase all the content currently on your iPod and it will be replaced with the content of the iTunes library you just connected to.
    When you've pressed cancel your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list under "devices" and allow you to change the update setting to manage the iPod content manually, and that will let you use your iPod for the time being without the risk of accidentally erasing the contents.
    Then do any of the following to transfer your music from iPod back to the computer/iTunes.
    For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    Find out how to do that here.
    How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
    For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump and iPodRobot.
    If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
    iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
    There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.

  • How do I transfer songs from my ipod mini to my computer or to my itunes library? Songs/playlists show up as being on ipod but cant move to itunes library.

    How do I transfer songs from my ipod mini to either my computer or to my itunes library.

    Hello Christopher,
    There are 2 ways to go about this.  One is to use the manual method which is a little different depending on whether or not you use a Mac or a PC or you can opt to use a 3rd party software that can help you accomplish the task as well.  See this older thread for a list of possible software you could use.

  • New Computer, is there any way to import songs from an ipod to a computer?

    My computer doesn't have the songs from my old computer so I was wondering if there was a way to import songs from an iPod to a computer, because if I update my iPod now, all of my songs will be lost.

    For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
