Transfer music from iPod to iTunes on Mac

In the past, I used copytrans to do this with my windows computers. In case I lose my iTunes library, what software program is also simple and reliable to do the same thing with my imac desktop computer? Thanks in advance for your help.

You can do it for free with Finder and iTunes. See the last entry in the table of recovery tools to recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device.

  • Can I transfer music from iPod Nano again iTunes account without losing any content?

    I had to have a new hard drive installed on my laptop and lost all the data that was on my old hard drive. I have reloaded iTunes but now it obviously does not show me as having any music out there. I have all my music on my iPod Nano. Can I sync the iPod to download on iTunes for re - record my music?

    Since the iTunes library on the new disc is new to the iPod, sync deletes the existing content of the iPod and replace it with the content of the new library (which currently is 'nothing').  By design, iTunes syncing is generally in one direction, from the iTunes library on the computer for iPod (with the exception of songs purchased on iTunes Store).  However, there are methods and third party utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something as 'ipod transfer music', you should get a few useful links, including a CNET article on the subject.

    Once your music files on your new drive, add them to your new iTunes library.  After the confirmation of all your songs are, sync of the iPod as you wish.

  • Transfer music from iPod classic to the new computer laptop

    Thus, on my old laptop, I had two accounts, one that was mine and that was my mother and my iPod classic has been synchronized to the iTunes on my account. I recently got a new laptop so that my mom could have one for herself, and so I proceeded to delete my account on the laptop. But I forgot to transfer all my iTunes music on a record hard to put it on my new laptop and so no longer have my music (about 3000 songs) on the former. I have all the songs on my iPod, and by logging into my iTunes on the new laptop, I could get my songs bought on iTunes, however, other songs (eg. those I burned a CD) I was not able to recover. Is it possible to transfer all the songs on my iPod to my new laptop?

  • How to transfer music from Iphone to Itunes library?

    I use an Iphone 6 and having music on my phone from my old computer. Unfortunately, I don't have music on my new computer, and they are blocked on my phone.

  • Try to sync the music from iPod to iTunes library

    I had to put a new hard drive in my computer, I so had to reinstall iTunes and basically start from scratch.  I have 757 songs on my iPod that I'm moving to my iTunes library so I can play the songs in iTunes.  What's weird, it's iTunes recognizes my iPod and shows the 757 songs with the title "On My Device", but it does not show the songs in the 'My music' library, which is the way I put it in place previously until I changed the hard drive.  I tried to hit the sync button, who has always worked in the past, and nothing happens.

    Does anyone have advice on how I could do this?  I've been playing with it for 3 hours trying to figure it out, and I'm so frustrated.

    Just for reference, I use an old school 2nd generation 8 GB iPod Touch, iOS 4.2.1

    Thank you!

  • Cannot transfer music from iTunes to the iPod nano.

    I can't transfer music from iTunes to my iPod. My laptop has Windows XP and my iPod nano is 6 years old. (I do not know what generation it is). the instructions say to click on "sources" to choose the IPod, but I can't find this option in iTunes.

    The latest version of iTunes can be different, so former instructions can be confusing.

    There are several ways to load songs on an iPod, including the auto sync and manual loading.  I will describe the method that automatically synchronizes the iPod to a playlist in your iTunes library.  First, you must create a new playlist in your iTunes library and add all the songs you want on the iPod playlist.  You can call iPod songs playlists (or whatever you want).  If you already have a "Favorites" playlist, you can use it.

    Then, select the iPod in iTunes (click on its button on the device on the horizontal bar) to show its settings screen in the iTunes window.  The side left (in the sidebar), under settings. Click on music.  Right, parameters of music on the iPod screen.

    NOTE: All the songs on the iPod that are not on your iTunes library (on the computer) will be lost.

    At the top, check the box to Sync music.  This enables automatic synchronization.  Below, choose the option to synchronize playlists selected, artists, album and genres.  Below, under playlists, search for and select (checkmark) playlists iPod songs you create earlier.  You can select the other items in these lists, if you wish.  When you click apply, iTunes syncs your selection to iPod.

    Go ahead, update of the songs on the iPod, update iPod songs playlist in your iTunes (add/remove songs).  The iPod has no need to be connected.  The next time that you connect the iPod (or click sync , if already connected), iTunes automatically updated the iPod with the same changes.  I use this method with my iPod nano, unless I have several playlists (not one) that I sync with my iPod.

    What is "apple mediathek?

    Depending on the context, I'll assume that you are asking how to unload files of songs from an iPod to a computer.  iTunes synchronization is generally in one direction, from iTunes to iPod library. You cannot use iTunes to transfer files of song from iPod to computer (with the exception of songs purchased from the iTunes Store)

    NOTE: Songs purchased from the iTunes Store can be downloaded again free of charge, on the iTunes Store purchased screen.

    Download your purchases past - Apple Support

    However, there are methods and third party utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like 'ipod music transfer', you should get a few links (including a CNET article on the subject).  Once the files of songs from the iPod to your disk, add them to your current iTunes library.

    Further, you should backup your iTunes data.  Apple describes a way to back up your folder full of iTunes on an external drive.

    Manage and backup your iTunes media library - Apple Support

    This method should also be used when switching from an old computer to a new computer.  By transferring or restore your complete iTunes folder, it's the same iTunes library on the new computer, not a new iTunes library with your old songs.  iPods are not designed to be your data from iTunes backup.

  • How to transfer my music from Ipod to i-tunes on my PC without losing songs from iPods?

    How to transfer my music from i-pod3 to PC without losing my music from iPod?

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not that a transfer backup device and media has been planned with you keep a master copy of your media on a computer that is in itself independently supported against loss.  To use a device with a different configuration, you pass the old library from a computer or a backup directly in the new configuration, not the device to the library. Synchronization of media isn't a way, computer to the device, update the contents of the device to the content on the computer, update or restore the content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases that can be transferred to a computer.

    Redownload or transfer your iTunes Store purchases an iPhone, iPad or iPod to computer - https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201267 - 'this feature only works for content purchased from the iTunes Store. From iOS9 is more apps that now need to be re-downloaded directly from the store.

    To transfer other items from an i-device to a computer, you will need to use third-party commercial software.  See this document in turingtest2: recover your iTunes library from your iPod or device iOS - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991 even this method can fully recover what you originally had in the library. For example, in order to save space during synchronization if you had converted music files at a lower rate, or photos at a lower resolution, it is these lower quality files that will pick you up.

    If you subscribe to the Apple music, titles that are not part of the content that you have purchased or downloaded may not be transferred and must be downloaded directly from iCloud.

    How can I transfer music from my iPod to Windows Media Player?

    WMP is not built-in iPod support, so you will need to use another media player, such as iTunes or Winamp, to get the music from the iPod to the PC (I don't know if iTunes will allow you to do, but Winamp will certainly be).

    If you then copy the music files to your personal music collection, they appear automatically in the WMP library.

    Hi shin men,.

    Unfortunately using ITunes is the best way to transfer music from Iphone to computer.

    However there are some third-party programs available online that can also help.

    You can communicate with ITunes to check if they have an easy way to transfer music from Iphone to computer.
