Transfering everything from Ipod to Itunes - SOLVED!
I just got a new computer and I want to transfer everything from my Ipod to Itunes. Itunes is only giving me the option to transfer songs I purchased through Itunes from my Ipod to my new computer. Thanks in advance for helping me.
Edit: i have no way of accessing the old computer as that laptop is busted.
I had the same thing happen to me when my hard drive failed a while back. There are two ways I know of to get songs from ipod to computer.
If your iPod is enabled for disk use, you can just plug it into the computer, and your music will be in there, so you can just copy it out. If you do that it'll all be fucked up and labeled like, "BJKF." So that kind of sucks. If you use iTunes to consolidate your library afterwards, that will fix the labels. Otherwise, there's a product called TuneTools, I think, that I picked up at Best Buy, that allegedly could do the same thing, but it worked like shit when I tried it and didn't accomplish anything.
