How do you transfer songs and videos from an iPod to another iPod?

PLEASE ANWSER!!How To transfer my Ipod songs to a different computer?

  • Can any one tell me how I can transfer everything on my ipod to a different computer without having to delete anything and put it back on there? I heard clicking on manually manage music and videos would put your songs on that computer but im afraid its not going to do that and its going to delete my stuff. And I also wanted my apps Ive paid for, for them to transfer to the other computer too?? HELP??

  • Answer:

    I had this problem too because my computer broke and I lost all my music, but I wasn't able to do it because I didn't have the original files. There's no easy way to do it but there are a few methods you could try - You can just plug your iPod into the other computer, and before itunes loads you can go into My Computer and just copy and paste the music in the ipod folder onto the computer, but for some reason this only lets you get a few of the songs. There are some programs you can download that will let you do it, but you have to pay for them - most will give you a free sample, but it only lets you get like 10 songs and then you have to pay to get more. Examples of this would be AVCWare and Sharepod. If you have an external hard drive, you can copy and paste your itunes library onto it, and then plug it into the new computer and copy the music that way. This is the easiest way but most people wouldn't have external hard drives. I hope one of those is useful to you! (and by the way you won't be able to copy it by clicking manually manage music)

If you bought your music from itunes, plug it in and find the "transfer purchases button." If you got them off of limewire or cds (etc.) you need to get a portable hard drive / usb and manually bring them ober

In the official company FAQ, Apple originally stated that: Synchronization occurs only in one direction, from your computer to your iPod. This means you cannot transfer music, automatically or manually, from your iPod to a computer, and you cannot use iPod to copy a music library from one computer to another. With the release of iTunes 7, Apple revised the company FAQ to note (emphasis added): Synchronization generally occurs only in one direction, from your computer to your iPod. This means you typically cannot transfer music, automatically or manually, from your iPod to a computer, and you cannot use iPod to copy a music library from one computer to another. An exception to this is the transfer purchases feature which allows you to restore purchased iTunes content to your computer from your iPod. Additionally, if you legally are allowed to copy music or other media files, you can configure your iPod as a storage drive to move media files. iTunes 7 and higher allow one to use an iPod to transfer songs purchased through iTunes to as many as five authorized computers. This only works for songs purchased through iTunes, not those ripped from CDs or downloaded from other sources, which are much more common. This restriction was designed to discourage casual music piracy, but unfortunately, this also prevents one from easily copying legally acquired music from one's own iPod to their own computer. If you need to restore a music collection lost due to a system crash or want to transfer thousands of songs to a new computer using your iPod rather than again rip hundreds of CDs, fortunately, there are a number of easy to use freeware and shareware programs that make it simple. For MacOS X, try AVGo iPhone iPod to Mac Transfer (Support iPod touch). For MacOS 9, try escapePod and iProber. For Windows, try Cucusoft iPhone iPod to computer transfer (and Support iPhone too,For Linux, try GUIPod as well as YamiPod (which supports MacOS X, Windows, and Linux). Hope it helps yah!!!
