Why cant I put my music from my mp3 player onto my comput

I recently got a new comp and I have no music on it because I thought I could get it off my mp3 player. Is this blocked intentionally or am I doing something wrong?
thx for your help

You don't say what player you have. I recommend reading the FAQ post, especially the information about how to post.
MP3s can be transferred from the player to the PC with all players.
The tracks that come with the player cannot be transferred, as these are locked.
Locked WMA tracks can't be transferred either.

  • How can I put my music from my iPod nano onto my computer?

    I bought an iPod nano 7th generation and all was well until my pc died. I quickly rebacked it up onto an external hard drive and only got about an eighth of my music left. FOrtuneately, my iPod has got all of my music on there!
    I'm using someone elses laptop at the moment, which only has a fraction of my music at the moment, and I wondered if it was possible if I could transfer my music from my iPod onto this new laptop, temporarily.
    I figured it would be an everyday thing Apple offered to its customers, but I suppose there might be some poxy copyright laws of something silly like that.
    I'm running Windows 7 at the mo.

    Do this first:

    Then after that is done, you can transfer your other songs from your iPod to your new computer.

  • Why cant i put my music from itunes on my phone

  • Can anyone help me with transfering my music from my Zen player to my comput

    Hi! I have had this Zen for about 2 years now but I had only got the chance to put music on it. I ended up moving awhile ago and completely forgot all about my Zen mp3 and I found it! So now am trying to figure out how to transfer my music from my Zen player onto my computer. Thanks a lot
    -Diana-

    I was having a similar proble. My Zen Micro was saying that errors occured while trying to sync from the player back to the computer. If the same thing happens to you, the problem is in your music. A dead giveaway is the file type. If your music is?a WMA file rather than an MP3, there's a security device that is embedded in the file that prevents you from syncing back to the computer. There is software that exists that strips that device and converts to MP3, but you have to have the songs on the computer first. I haven't figured that out yet. if you have any luck with this, post back.

    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.

    The iPod backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps and music.

  • My itunes was deleted off of my computer. Is there any way I can get my music from my Ipod back onto my computer?

    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!

    This might be a bit late, but I just registered on this board, so bear with me.
    There is software that moves songs from an ipod to a computer. It's called Tune Tools and can be ordered at
    http://valusoft.com/products/tunetoolsmm.html
    With this software, you can back up your ipod, recover lost or corrupted itunes files, and many more. I have this software and it's a godsend.
    Let us know if this works for you.

  • Moving music from another mp3 player

    I have a different mp3 player with a large library of music acquired from various sources. I just received an ipod nano as a gift. Is there any way to transfer my music from my old player to the ipod? I paid good money for my library and I hate to lose it!

    Welcome to the forums!
    iTunes is the only way I know of to get songs into your new iPod. SO the trick is to get your old libraru into iTunes.
    So you have to know what format they are in now. Maybe WMA or mp3. iTunes works well with mp3 and I think it can convert non-protected WMA as well so you have to find a way to get the files into a format that will work.
    Once you have a method you can just drag the files into iTunes and it will do the rest.
