ipod touch


Question Posted Monday March 1 2010, 7:57 pm

Okay I have had my ipod for about 3 years. I love it, I have about 500 songs on it! My old computer with my itunes that had all my songs on it crashed. So I got me a new one a little while ago. I have itunes downloaded but i don't know if i should use it? I bought some new songs i wanna download but when i plug in my ipod to sync, it doesn't give me the option to put all the songs on my ipod already in my current itunes library. I don't want to loose them they costs to much. What should I do?

im not sure if you know this but you can only download purchased songs (purchased from itunes) back onto your computer from your ipod. that being said these are the steps to download songs from your ipod to the computer:
1. when you plug your ipod in do not sync it. just click out of that box if it gives you the option
2. go to files and select transfer purchases from ipod. and then follow the instructions
3. if it says something like the computer is not authorized go to store (the link at the top of the window) and select authorize this computer or authorize computer. you can only have 5 authorized computers at one time. so if you dont use that computer a lot you can deauthorize the computer using that same link.

im not sure if i helped let me know how that works and if it doesnt ill try to figure something out!

First, make sure you have enabled disk use. (Here are the instructions for enabling disk use: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location))

Now go to Windows Explorer (if you're using Windows) or Finder (if you're using a Mac), and look at the files in your iPod. All the music should be under iPod_Control/Music. Copy them to your computer.
