Ipod help.

As I said in another thread, my old coumpter went down in flames. The repair shop tried tried to salvage my hard drive but it was not to happen. Now I have bought a new computer. Is there anyway to download my music from my Ipod to my computer or do I have to start from scratch?

[ESavinon]

yes.

install iTunes on your new machine, and sync. it with your iPod.

I don't believe that this works - you can't sync music from an iPod onto a "different" machine.

You CAN, however, mount the iPod as a drive and then copy the songs onto your hard drive, and then re-add them to iTunes.

For the $13 I think I'll just buy one of the transfer programs. Thanks.

A cd for what? No CD came with my ipod.

all you have to do is explore into the ipod drive in my computer and change the permissions of the ipod_control from read only and apply to all sub folders to be able to explore the itunes music folder..

then just go into itunes and add the Z:\iPod_Control\Music folder to library with copy selected file from source enabled.. or drag and drop.. etc
