Want to transfer everything from my IPod back to my computer
I crashed my computer and everything got deleted. I want to be able to transfer some things from my IPod back on my computer so that I can sync my IPod safely. I was using Senuti which was working fine until I had to put things that was already transfered onto my computer once and was deleted. Now that it has been transfer it doesn't seem to want to transfer those items again. Is there another way. Also, I transfered my purchases back on my computer once and now I can't do that again either.
There's a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
If you are having problems with Senuti there are many other third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

I want to transfer music from my ipod to a new computer can I do this?
can I transfer music from my ipod touch to a new computer?
Sort of... but the best bet is to transfer/copy your entire iTunes media folder from your old computer to your new computer. Otherwise you may not get all your media copied.
iDevices are not backups, they are simply mirrors of what exists in your iTunes library. -

I used Article: HT2109 to transfer everything from my iPod touch 3g, iOS 5.1.1, to my iPod touch 5g, iOS 6.1.3. Why did data from apps NOT move to the new device? Games are starting over rather than picking up where they were on the old device?
- If you restored the 5G frmm the iTunes backup of the 3G were th app in the iTunes library of the computer you used? They have to be.
- If yes then try again. When I first restored my iPad 4 from the iTunes backup of my iPad 1 app data did not transfer. I tried again and it did. -
I can get the itunes purchased music back but the rest of my music (ripped from my CD's) i cannot transfer from my ipod back to my computer, do i really have to re rip them all? some I no longer have
@roaminggnome I do not appreciate you're condescending attitude, if you cant offer anything constructive, shut the **** up. Maybe i couldn't afford a back-up drive at the time. no-one expects their main drive to fail, I was saving up for it when it happened so take you're patronising smug attitude and you're 20/20 hindsight somewhere else.
Thanks turingtest2 i got irip and recovered most of my files. -
Can I do all and transfer everything from the iPod Touch 32gb 3rd gen onto an iPad using iTunes?
Be sure to first sync and backup your iPod Touch with iTunes. Then just sync your iPad with iTunes to transfer everything to the iPad. Be sure you are using the same Apple ID. You will now have two devices synced with iTunes on your computer.

How do I transfer music from my Ipod to my home computer?
- Transfer iTunes purchases to the new computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like on of those discussed here:
newer copy
If you want to make this computer the syncing computer then also do:
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup.
Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music. -
Is there any way to put all the music FROM my iPod back onto my computer? My school tech person not only wiped out my iTunes, the wiped out my back-up hard drive.
Hello cgbuehling
You can, but only the purchases that were made from the iTunes Store. Other content that was imported from a CD or other sources will not transfer over.

Most of my music is from CDs that I don't have anymore. I've got over a thousand songs and most of them were deleted when my computer crashed. Is there any way I can get my music from my ipod back onto my computer? Any sort of program you can buy? Thanks for any help, I really appreciate it!
