Is there any way to put all the songs from an iPod onto iTunes?

Question

I recently got a total new computer so obviously everything like my music pictures and videos and files are gone. is there amy way to simply have all my iPod must onto iTunes without using software?

Answer 1

Not without 3rd party software. iPods are only designed to take from computers, not the other way around.

Answer 2

Sorry to bust your bubble, but there is no somewhat convenient way to transfer music iPod to iTunes (without software).  But, there is FREE software that you can transfer MUSIC with.  If you have a mac, your best bet is Senuti, found here:

If you have a PC, your best bet is iPod2PC, found here:

Note that if you get the free version of iPod2PC, you will have to click transfer again and again until your whole library is transferred, it will only transfer a random selection of songs at a time.

Luck to you!

And note: this DOES keep your playlists, playcount, ratings, etc.  Unlike copying it from hidden folders and risking damage to your computer AND iPod with just one wrong click.

Answer 3

yea plug in your ipod, but DONT SYNC IT WITH THE BLANK LIBRARY. go to my computer and click on the ipod drive. then go to 'folder options' under 'tools'. go to 'view' and click the button that says 'show hidden files and folders. your music and videos should all be in one of the folders of your ipod after this. then just drag and drop into your new itunes. the only downside is the playcount, playlists, and i think the album art of the songs will all be deleted, but all your music and videos will be there.
