I need help with my ipod and transfering songs

Question

I have an ipod and i want to transfer my songs to a zune but i don't use itunes(so i don't have songs backed up to my computer) i use my ipod as an external hardrive

can anyone shed light?

Answer 1

music files from itunes are DRM protected. to put them on zune, you need a certain program to help remove the protection mechanism and convert the music files to formats accepted by zune. i have been using tuneclone audio converter for a long time. it works really nice.

maybe you can take a look at this step by step tutorial about how to play itunes m4p music files on zune with tuneclone:

Answer 2

you will need to have a 3rd party tool to help you copy songs in your ipod to computer as itunes blocks the ipod-to-computer transfer, here is a review of top 5 ipod  copying softwares(windows/mac): http://www.ipodtocomputer.net
