Trying to move songs from 1comp to another- NEED HELP

I was orginally trying to move my itunes folder from my old comp to my new one. Easy enough right? Wrong. I copied the folder and put it on my 40gb ipod then went to put it on my comp. Well it only put bout 1/3 of my music like the first 15 folders. It started saying files were corrupt. Then I started getting the ! with the folder on my ipod. I tried reseting it but that doesn't work and it is fully charged. I'm using Windows XP. Plz help. I just sold my other laptop so I need to get these songs off the other computer.

I have a similar problem, my hard disk has been reformatted and my library of songs is now only on the iPod, can i transfer them back from the iPod to the computer or is my library now only accessible on my iPod.

  • Trying to move songs from iPod to Mac

    I accidentally deleted some songs from iTunes, without even thinking, I emptied the trash can. I thought they were duplicates, but they weren't! The only other place I have these songs backed up are on my iPod Touch. I had it in "Manual" mode, and am trying to put move these songs to my iMac, but it's not working. These are songs I ripped from a CD years ago, and unfortunately can't find the CD now to put them back on the iMac.
    Is there any way to get these transferred from my iPod Touch to my iMac?

    Music you bought from the iTunes store can be transferred from the iPod to computer via iTunes. Look under the File menu. For the rest, you'll need to use a third party program. I used to recommend Senuti as a free solution (and the one that I use) but it is now shareware so while I know that a program called 'Ipod to Mac 12' says it does the job and is free, I can't recommend it because I haven't used it yet.

  • I can't get the album info when I'm trying to import songs from a cd. Any Help?

    When I click on advanced-get track names it says Server Error. And when I import anyways and go to library and try to get info again it says can't connect to gracenote database or cddb is not available for some of these items. Which I know is not true because they are not hard to find cd's or whatever. I try with a few other cd's and still nothing same problem. What do I do? Reinstall Itunes or what?

    Hi there,
    I have included a couple of article below that should cover the process for importing the CDs and then syncing those to your iPhone. I would recommend reviewing it thuroughly as a lot has changed in iTunes 11.

    Podcast Producer is part of OSX server and is something I have no experience of. It is expecting your to be running your own server - AFAIK it's not designed for use when you are expecting to host on a commercially run server but I'm not sure about that. You should ask in the OS X Server forum applicable to the version you have. If you are not running OSX server then this program appears not to be suitable for you.

  • HELP!  Trying to move master from one to another

    I've got pretty much the same problem. Let me explain what I've done so far.
    I uploaded photos to Album(Sledding) under Project(Winter). There were a few photos that belonged in the Album(Landscape) also under Project(Winter). So I dragged and dropped for Sledding Album to Landscape Album. I thought this would move them and not leave them in the original. But they were still there. So I went and tried to delete one, I got the message
    "Managed master files stored in the Aperture Library will be moved to the Trash.
    Referenced master files may be used by another project, library, or application. They will remain in their current locations unless you choose to move them to the Trash.
    All versions, adjustments, and metadata will be permanently removed from your library. This operation cannot be undone."
    Then went and check and the photo was removed from both albums and the project.
    I've messed around and deleted one from each of the different albums and project just to see what would happen. And the same happens no matter what album or project I'm in.
    I really need for someone to explain how this Master thing works.

    Tried Robocopy and Richcopy but not having any luck , the files transfer but the permissions are not transferring with them , there taking on the permission of the new system.
    Any suggestions

  • Trying to take songs from one computer to another

    I am using iTunes on one computer with three ipods. My mother has a laptop and she wants to put all the songs from my computer onto hers so she can use her ipod on her laptop instead of using mine. I searched online to see how to do it and was told to plug ipod in and click on enable disk use, then I went to my computer and dragged over the artists and songs from my music to the ipod. I then plugged the cord for the ipod into my mothers laptop and dragged each artist into itunes under music. When I tried to eject her ipod it said it was in use so I just left it in. When I had plugged it in a box came up that said that the ipod could only be used on one computer so if I wanted to use it on this new computer I would have to delete it. I thought that's what I was supposed to do so I pressed delete. I went through the songs and took out ones I didn't want and then synced her ipod. I took it out and when I go to play a song that is listed under music in the library it says it can not be found. It only works when I have the ipod connected. My father wants to use the laptop as well and I don't understand what happened. Did I mess it up when I pushed delete? Should I take everything off her ipod and then redo it all on my other computer? I really don't understand. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please e-mail me at [email protected] and put something in the subject line about itunes or ipod so I won't delete it. Thanks so much

    Although an iPod can be used in disk mode, it is easier to move songs from one computer to another using a USB flash drive.
    When the songs are on the computer where you want them, add them to the iTunes library on that computer, and then you will be ready to sync the iPod.

    A Espinoza,
    The iTunes Media folder is set in Preferences > Advanced, and is the key to most iTunes folder organizational activities.  So I doubt that the automatic deletion will work for files that are somewhere else within the folder structure.
    However, I have not experimented with that issue in quite a while, so you are welcome to give it a try in iTunes 11. 

  • Can ypou move songs from one ipod to another?

    Is there a way to move songs from one way to another, if so can you tell me.

    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, 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.

  • I have an iPod Classic and when I try to move songs from my library to my iPod, my iTunes freezes. When I tried to eject my iPod, nothing happened and I had to force quit iTunes. When I unplugged my iPod, all of my songs had been deleted. What can I do?

    After attempting to move songs from my iTunes library to my iPod Classic, the pinwheel kept spinning and iTunes froze. I tried pressing CTRL E to eject the iPod, but nothing happened. I unplugged the iPod then force quit iTunes, but when I checked my iPod all of the songs had been deleted. I tried plugging the iPod back in and slowly moved music over again, but iTunes still froze. I don't want to restore it to factory settings because I am afraid of losing the pictures I have on there and can't figure out how to get them off.

    Are you using a Macbook?
    If all your songs on the iPod are deleted, most likely the photios are gone too.
    Unless you put the photos, via Diskmode.
    To recover the photos that you've put in Diskmode, use Finder to locate where it is in the iPod.
    Try also if iPhoto can locate those photos.

  • Authorized device was erased. Downloaded iTunes. Says my iPod is already synced to a library. Where do I access that library and how do i get it back on iTunes? I tried manually move songs in disk mode. Bunch of data on ipod, how to remove?

    One of my authorized devices was erased. I downloaded iTunes. Says my iPod is already synced to a library. It will allow me transfer purchased songs but not songs I had that were downloaded off of my CD's. Where do I access that library and how do i get it back on iTunes? I tried manually move songs in disk mode. Now I have a bunch of data on ipod and I don't know how to remove it. It basically copied all my itunes files from my C drive onto ipod in my efforts to move the library. 

    When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive.  It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas?  I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

  • Trying to move photos from ipod to computer

    Can anyone help me? I'm trying to move photos from my ipod to my computer. I had to have my hard drive replaced last week. I was able to get my songs back onto my computer but I'm trying to figure out how to move my photos. Anyone know?
    Thanks--
    Susan

    Susan, had you checked "Include Originals" in the iPod preferences via iTunes?
    If not, you'll only have very small thumbnails on your iPod and there is no straightforward way to recover these. (You won't be satisfied with their quality anyway as they are really small, downscaled versions.)
    Don't you have any other backup (CD/DVD, .Mac, external harddrive)?
    If you did opt to include the original pictures on the iPod you'll stilll have to enable "Disc use" of you iPod to access the iPod's content via the Finder.
    Alexander.

  • I cannot move songs from my library to my iphone

    I cannot move songs from my library (CD's that I own) on my laptop to my iphone

    They are not moved, they are synced.
    What if anything happens when trying to sync content to the device?
    Is it actually selected to sync or are you trying to manually manage content on the device?
