If you want to transfer music from iPod to PC, you can rely on the “Transfer Purchases” function of iTunes. The tutorial comes as follows: Plug your iPod touch into computer via the USB cable. The iTunes will launch, if not, double click the icon on your desktop to start it. Click “File” at the upper left corner, and then click “Devices> Transfer Purchases”. iTunes may need your Apple ID to finish the transfer. Type the Apple ID in the dialog.
