How do I transfer music from my ipod touch to my laptop?

Question

Hey, I was wanting to know how to transfer music. My itunes library is empty on my laptop and I was wanting to put all the music from my ipod touch on to it. So if someone could tell me how to do it easily, I would appreciate it.

Thanks.
(My laptop is a windows vista and I have the latest version of itunes. Not sure if those details are important or not)

Hi. The most convenient and secure way is to use an iPod-to-computer transfer program to help you, like this handy one called Tansee iPod Transfer

http://www.gutensoft.com/Utilities/Tansee-iPod-Transfer.htm

Many of my friends are using it for its easy and safe transfer. The whole process goes as follows:



Firstly install this program on your computer. When you plug your iPod to the computer, this program will instantly display all songs and videos on the iPod.You simply select what you wish to transfer and click "Copy" button. Done. All your selected files will be copied to your computer safely. Now you can easily add those songs and videos to your iTunes library. See detailed guide.

More importantly, this won't overwrite any original files on your iPod. And all song names are preserved.



Here is step-by-step guide on the whole process:

Answer 2

Grab an external hard drive and copy all of your music (Usually located under your My Music folder, iTunes, iTunes Music) to the external drive. Hook it up to the new computer, copy it back to the same place, then launch iTunes. Click File, Add Folder to Library, navigate to the folder you just copied to the computer, click OK, sit back and wait. Unfortunately, you'll need to resync your iPod to iTunes and put all your music on the iPod again since Apple does not allow you to sync with one computer, then another computer without wiping out an iPod.
