Answer 1

Hello, as long as your songs are still on your iPod, you can get them back to your computer and iTunes easily.



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:

You should. Plug in your iPod & when your list comes up go to sidebar & open "playlists" then click on recently added. Once your songs appear drag them to the top of the sidebar where it says "library" that is your computers iTunes' Library, & drop them into, the library where it says "music". Some advice; as an extra precaution... get a flash drive & put EVERYTHING... photos, music, & all other files on that. Their CHEAP! SanDisk 8GB Flash Drive- $20. at Wally World! Holds tons of stuff!!! and you can transfer everything from that. Just be sure to open iTunes on your computer then open F. drive, drag to or from computer, or F. Drive. EASY!!!

Good question. Something I haven't had to find out yet but after looking into it I'm glad to know in advance that if the worst happened and I just synced my ipod with the pc then I'd probably lose all my music.



I found this article which should help. There's also a lot of responses underneath offering other options.
